The reason was simple.
Only strengthening the hull structure module could increase the number of auxiliary module slots.
The Sky Peng Horizontal had recently run into repeated shortages of auxiliary module slots.
Wang Dong didn't want to keep "robbing Peter to pay Paul." It was exhausting!
So he spent 525,000 Source Points, 525 titanium crystals, and 10 High-grade Energy Crystals.
He strengthened the Sky Peng Horizontal's Legendary Hull Structure module from LV.30 to LV.40!
"Legendary Hull Structure module compatibility threshold reached. A new hull trait is about to be generated.
Would you like to spend 2 High-grade Energy Crystals to activate the 'Module Trait Self-Selection' function?"
Wang Dong smiled faintly.
Did he even need to ask?
The two High-grade Energy Crystals vanished, leaving only the last two in the Sky Peng Horizontal's reserves.
In return, the familiar interface appeared in his mind.
As usual, dozens of lower-quality hull traits swept past.
Wang Dong's gaze ultimately settled on the handful of top-tier hull traits.
"1. Unyielding Soul (Red): Reduces the effects and duration of negative statuses affecting this ship by 60%.
2. Regenerative Cycle (Red): Reduces all Energy Consumption by this ship by 60%.
3. Source Power Mystery (Orange): Increases this ship's Source Point acquisition rate by 100%.
4. Evolution Mystery (Orange): Halves the resources required for this ship to evolve.
..."
This was the first time two Red-quality hull traits had appeared.
The other two Orange-quality hull traits had appeared during the previous evolution.
Wang Dong couldn't help hesitating.
In theory, choosing a Red-quality hull trait was the obvious choice.
But the two Orange-quality hull traits were just as tempting.
"Evolution Mystery" in particular would cut the resources needed to evolve the Sky Peng Horizontal in half.
For Wang Dong, who had just checked the evolution requirements and learned how
