Divine Sense spread throughout Feng Xiao's entire body, shrouding even every individual cell in a pale golden halo. His genetic physique, already perfectly optimized when his Divine Sense first awakened, became even more terrifying under its reinforcement!

The spear of Divine Sense, imbued with energy annihilation and mental attack, slammed into the Demon Race Saint-tier, instantly dissipating the black-red flames on its body!

Even the energy within its body fell into chaos, as the rampaging power of Divine Sense surged directly into its brain!

The pain of his spirit being torn apart left the creature stiff, and in the next moment, a spear pierced straight through its brain.

"Next..."

Feng Xiao looked toward the leader of the Demon Race merchant guild, who had realized the situation was dire and turned to flee at top speed, and moved his mind.

His powerful Divine Sense frantically compressed the surrounding natural energy, then captured that sliver of spatial energy to use as propulsion, pushing all the energy outward!

In an instant, a brilliant beam of light tore through the sky, swallowing the merchant guild leader who had already escaped ten thousand meters away.

"Not bad, equivalent to 60% of the Star Origin's main cannon power, though it seems to only have single-target lethality; the area-of-effect damage is much weaker."

After offering this evaluation, Feng Xiao turned his attention back to the merchant camp.

Area-of-effect damage, though? Divine Sense itself was one of the strongest area-of-effect abilities!

Uh... it was also the strongest support... the strongest combat... the most...

Forget it, in short, it was very comprehensive, with almost no weaknesses other than the user themselves.

"Haha, as expected, robbery is the most profitable business." Feng Xiao looked at the ten crates in front of him filled with life energy crystals of various grades.

His heart was filled with joy.

This haul would earn him at least over a million Star Points!

In addition to nearly a hundred high-grade beast crystals, there were also large quantities of precious metals and rare medicinal herbs and fruits.

All of them were best-selling commodities within the Alliance.

After stowing away all the resources, Feng Xiao finally cast his gaze toward the center of the camp.

There stood hundreds of metal cages, and what caught Feng Xiao's eye most were two hundred sturdy human men with bare upper bodies!

It wasn't that Feng Xiao had any strange quirks; it was that these humans all possessed Level 15 energy fluctuations!

They belonged to the most powerful batch among the thousands of slaves, and most importantly, it seemed these humans had been brainwashed by some means.

They had lost all their memories, leaving behind only combat skills and basic life knowledge.

Born into a civilization where individual might reigned supreme, they possessed powerful physiques. Although their cultivation system wasn't as complete as the Alliance's, their talent was excellent—they were simply perfect candidates for a starship assault team!

As for the other powerful slaves...

His gaze swept over the Orc and Dwarf slaves, as well as many strange tribes, and Feng Xiao shook his head.

Better not; looking so strange would be inconvenient for operations within the Alliance.

His Divine Sense easily tore the cages apart. Glancing at the large amount of ordinary supplies in the camp, his indifferent voice echoed: "Your lives were not meant to end here; live your lives well and work hard here."

He then swept up the two hundred humans, his Divine Sense penetrating their defenseless consciousnesses while imprinting the core ideology of loyalty.

As for combat styles and cognitive shifts, Alliance medical Star Weapons could solve that.

Memory implantation was a basic function of medical Star Weapons above the blue grade.

Notifying the Star Origin to dispatch its only four transport planes to pick up the people, Feng Xiao immediately flashed toward Elsa, curious about her talent.

Several High Elves sat on tree branches, their slender, alluring legs swinging slightly as Elsa pondered how to get a legendary powerhouse with divine qualities to agree to let her become his attendant.

Behind her, several elves looked on with faces full of worry. Elsa was the Elven Queen—the peak epic powerhouse of the Elven race—and the Royal Elven Princess born from a mixture of her own lifeblood and the Spring of Life.

She was the sole successor to the Elven Royal Court.

Although becoming an attendant to a divine legendary powerhouse wasn't a grievance, her status would still drop.

After all, while legendary powerhouses were strong—strong enough to severely damage a race—a single legend was somewhat insignificant when facing a peak-tier race.

The High Elf race had an army of hundreds of millions, with an average combat strength of Tier 3 warriors, in addition to countless professional legions and war machines.

If the army attacked together, even a demigod would have to avoid the brunt of their force.

"Should we try to persuade Her Highness the Princess?"

One of the elves whispered, her brow furrowed with worry.

This time, the Princess had brought them out for relaxation and play, only to encounter the Demon Race slave merchant guild and impulsively get involved in a crisis.

Now, she was thinking of becoming an attendant to a legendary powerhouse who wasn't of their race; how would she explain this to the Queen?

Of course, even if the Queen knew, she wouldn't be too angry. Although legendary powerhouses couldn't sway the outcome of wars between peak races, their importance was still not low.

They were strategic deterrent units!

Especially for those powerful races without legendary powerhouses, there was no strength capable of avoiding assassinations of high-level officials by a legend.

"It's probably impossible. You know the Princess's temper and personality; ever since she read the biographies of legendary powerhouses, she's been obsessed."

"Now that she's encountered a legendary seed who is also at the peak level of divinity, do you think you can persuade her?"

The short-haired elf rubbed her delicate face, feeling increasingly helpless.

Suddenly, Elsa looked up in pleasant surprise.

A pale golden stream of light appeared before them, and Feng Xiao's elegant figure hovered in mid-air, gazing at Elsa with a calm expression.

"Heart of Dawn!"

[Elsa Age: 22 Height: 173 Personality Prediction: Gentle, strong thirst for knowledge Race: Demi-human (High Elf) Ability: Holy Light Apothecary (30%) Current Skills: Master of Potions Effect: 100% success rate when possessing potion formulas and corresponding materials; can sense the general effects of high-energy plants; possesses an extremely powerful talent for developing superior potions. Potential: Epic Recommendation: Starship Medical Department]

Our Captain was taken aback, then began calculating how to recruit this little beauty—who could make starship software even more powerful—for free.

Regardless of her ability level, he guaranteed that as long as Elsa joined the Star Origin, the efficacy of the Tianyi medical Star Weapon would definitely be enhanced!

Or rather, all medical-type Star Weapons would receive an additional boost in the future.

"You..."

"Respected legendary powerhouse, would you allow me to become your attendant?" Elsa's beautiful face was flushed, her eyes filled with hope.

???

Is my charm really that strong??

He hadn't even said anything yet, had he?

Born in an era of flourishing technology and eternal materialism, Feng Xiao could not comprehend the ancient order of the Autses Continent—the supremacy of the strong.

A "respect for the strong" that was truly etched into the bone!

Everyone believed that as long as they stayed by the side of a powerhouse, they too could become stronger, witness scenes they had never seen before, and possess more resources!

In fact, those powerhouses thought the same.

This was why gods could spread their faith across the entire Autses Continent; even the peak races had their own divine beliefs.

Feng Xiao quickly composed himself, gazing into Elsa's eyes with a calm and serious expression, only withdrawing his scrutinizing gaze after five minutes.

He held out the Starship Treaty.

"This is a type of contract. Sign it and you will become my attendant. I can cancel it at any time, so you need to prove your value."

Since he didn't understand what was going on, he might as well calmly accept this sudden surprise.

"Yes!" Elsa jumped up lightly in sheer joy, causing a turbulent swell.

"Calm down..."

Feng Xiao suppressed the ripples in his heart and led his new crew member and two hundred human soldiers back toward the Star Origin.

According to the schedule, the Star Origin should be finishing its mining operations right about now.
