"When you choose to serve the great Lord of the Stars and fight for humanity, the shabby equipment you wear will also be upgraded. It can even make you stronger, like me."
When they heard that serving the great Lord of the Stars would earn them upgraded equipment, everyone's eyes widened, their gazes converging on Mo Tuo.
