Cheater

Wang Dong did not choose to activate this optional function of the auxiliary system at this time for a reason.

On one hand, it was naturally due to the insufficient quantity of low-grade Energy Crystals, only 2 units.

On the other hand, Wang Dong did not wish to tie himself to the War Axe, now the Pond, for the rest of his life.

The Pond was only a third-generation ship with severely insufficient growth potential.

Its quality was not high either.

Before his rebirth, he had no choice. After his rebirth, Wang Dong had higher requirements for his flagship.

The Pond could only serve as a transition.

There was no need to waste Energy Crystals on it.

Regarding how to handle the Pond, Wang Dong had already made plans after his rebirth.

First, the Pond, formerly the War Axe, was definitely something he had to obtain.

Although the War Axe would bring a series of troubles, especially the pursuit from the Jin Family.

However, the Mirage System and the other two additional modules were temptations Wang Dong could not give up.

Second, after inheriting the War Axe from Yuan Shu, Wang Dong had a bottom line in his heart.

That was to absolutely not expose his identity.

If he could not achieve this bottom line, Wang Dong would resolutely abandon the "War Axe."

Between life and wealth, Wang Dong was not an ordinary hot-blooded youth and knew which was more important.

Of course, before abandoning the "War Axe," Wang Dong would first dismantle and hide the few additional modules on it.

And things developed much more smoothly than expected.

After obtaining enough origin points through multiple otherworldly battlefields, repairing the ship's hull and renaming the Warship were necessary steps.

Due to the cooldown limitation of the shipboard fire seed, after each entry into an otherworldly battlefield, at least one month was required before it could cross spacetime again to enter another otherworldly battlefield.

Originally, it was estimated that this process would take several months.

But thanks to the "generous contribution" of the Yatai civilization, Wang Dong only spent a few days to achieve this goal.

After strengthening and upgrading both the armor and sky patrol radar modules to LV.2, the Pond's main cannon, armor, engine, and sky patrol radar, these standard modules, all reached LV.2.

At the same time, the Pond's comprehensive combat power evaluation level also rose to LV.7!

The basic publicly disclosed information of the Warship would also change from "Scout-class Destroyer (War Axe) LV.6" to "Scout-class Destroyer (Pond) LV.7."

Now, it was truly safe enough.

Compared to the LV.6 "War Axe," the LV.7 "Pond" was like two completely different warships.

Just now, Wang Dong spent a full 1300 origin points for the renaming operation and the strengthening of the Warship modules to transform the "War Axe" into the "Pond."

1300 origin points, at the average rate of origin point acquisition for a normal Kindling Warship, meant at least several decades of effort.

With this change, Wang Dong finally successfully drew a sufficiently deep boundary between the "Pond" and the original "War Axe."

A boundary that would take at least several decades to cross.

At this moment, after returning to its original universe, the "Pond" would no longer be directly associated with the "War Axe."

There was still a considerable amount of origin points remaining, enough to strengthen one of the Pond's standard modules once or twice.

But Wang Dong did not continue to strengthen the standard modules, instead turning his attention to the additional modules.

Whether it was the remote control function of the Quantum Entanglement Brainwave Control System or the powerful stealth function of the Mirage System, they were indispensable to Wang Dong at this stage.

Therefore, it was more valuable to prioritize consuming origin points on these two modules.

The "Pond" with a comprehensive combat power evaluation level of LV.7 was sufficient for use in the current otherworldly battlefields.

For Kindling Warships, once their comprehensive evaluation level exceeded LV.10, their opponents in otherworldly battlefields would no longer be easy targets like Level 1 interstellar civilizations.

Instead, there was even a chance of encountering Level 3 interstellar civilizations.

To be safe, he decided not to further increase the Pond's comprehensive evaluation level for the time being.

After all, what he needed to do next was to hide carefully, not to rush out and engage in direct combat.

"Upgrade the Quantum Entanglement Brainwave Control System from LV.0 to LV.1."

"Consume 200 origin points, 1 ton of gas ore. Upgrade Quantum Entanglement Brainwave Control System (Green) LV.0 to LV.1, duration 30 minutes, confirm?"

"Confirm."

Remaining origin points: 317.

"Consume 1 unit of low-grade Energy Crystal to double the module growth value?"

This time, Wang Dong chose "Yes"!

Immediately, half of the remaining 2 units of low-grade Energy Crystals in his hand were consumed.

"Quantum Entanglement Brainwave Control System (Green) (LV.1) upgrade complete, current attributes are as follows:

Energy Consumption: 1 point/hour, Effective Range: 0.05 light-years."

Upgrade requirements: 1. Origin point 200; 2. Qi ore 2 tons.

Effective range increased by 0.04 light-years!

If the double growth value of the auxiliary system were excluded, the normal increase in effective range from this reinforcement would be 0.02 light-years.

The enhancement magnitude of the additional module is clearly greater than that of the standard module.

This is one of the reasons why Wang Dong values the additional module more.

It has higher growth potential.

Combined with the auxiliary system, just one reinforcement directly increased the effective range of the Quantum Entanglement Brainwave Control System to five times its original size!

Terrifying.

This is the correct way for a "cheater" to operate!
