Spider Mom's Doubts: It Really Was Him

Gazing at the Egg of Resurrection floating above her palm, Spider Mom's eyes held worry. The road to the Treacherous Destruction Continent was not easy to travel.

Sylvain and most of her assets were used to build Fallen Star Nest.

Therefore, it is difficult to teleport directly using the Gate of Myriad Worlds like Gustavo.

If we fly little by little, who knows when it will take.

The normal approach is to accumulate Star Wheel while flying, gather enough teleportation fees, and return to the Treacherous Destruction Continent as soon as possible.

Once we get there, we can contact other members of the Mitrola Clan, and the situation will be much better.

Just as Index was pondering how to quickly accumulate enough teleportation fees, powerful auras suddenly appeared outside the Fallen Star Nest.

Startled, Index quickly swallowed the Egg of Resurrection, went to the porthole, and brought up the energy projection screen of the outside world.

Within the thick Mist, countless runic powers swirled, and cruel, savage eyes peered through the runic barrier.

Seeing this, Index's heart sank, thinking she had unfortunately run into space pirates.

However, what happened next gradually confused her.

Within the Mist formed by the Rune Array, a sapphire pendant slowly floated out. Spatial fluctuations flashed, and boxes upon boxes of elemental crystals flew out. Once opened, extremely dense natural elements surged wildly.

They are all top-tier elemental crystals, and have already been cut into standard Astral Realm units.

In the Astral Realm, besides the "Star Wheel," a currency uniformly issued by the "Astral Realm Council," there are also some hard currencies.

Pure energy blocks, natural elemental crystals, high-quality Transcendent materials, pure souls, and rare minerals.

These resources hold a similar status in the Astral Realm as gold on Blue Star, serving as a natural form of currency.

It will even be more widely available in terms of circulation.

Some forces in the underworld might refuse Star Wheel, but they would never refuse elemental crystals, a form of hard currency.

Index only glanced at them, but her skillful financial management allowed her to calculate the value of the elemental crystals before her.

The minimum value is 30,000 Star Wheel.

It's not only enough for her to use the Gate of Myriad Worlds to return to the Treacherous Destruction Continent, but there's still plenty left over.

Besides the elemental crystals that can be used directly as currency, the sapphire pendant also contained some life-saving items, including one-time-use magic scrolls, healing potions, and other valuable resources...

Looking at the dazzling array of resources before her, Index, despite her usually sharp mind, was momentarily stunned.

A series of questions then surfaced in my mind.

Are space pirates all this friendly nowadays?

He quit robbery and went into charity work?

Are there so many good people in the Astral Realm?

"Take these things and leave immediately."

The familiar tone, the familiar intonation, even the timbre was very similar... just like that unfamiliar powerful figure with lightning powers.

This made Spider Mom, who was still a little hesitant, no longer hesitate. Anyway, she couldn't beat these people in front of her. Whether the money-giving boy was real or fake, she didn't really have a choice.

Manipulating the gravitational hand, it seized all the resources and reclaimed the Fallen Star Nest.

Then, Spider Mom rode the Fallen Star Nest, transformed into silver light, and disappeared into the dark Void.

Gazing at the vanished Fallen Star Nest, the Logo rune clone hidden in the Mist turned coldly, looking towards the distant void, and suddenly waved its hand.

The next moment, part of the Mist dissipated, revealing the massive size of the Godslayer.

Boom!

The cannon, having stored its power for a long time, unleashed a beam of light powerful enough to Destruction stars.

"Wait..."

From the void, a panicked voice suddenly rang out, but it was quickly swallowed up by the blinding light and turned into the Astral Realm dust.

After clearing away all potential threats to Spider Mom, the rune clone, along with his subordinates, departed aboard the Godslayer.

Holy Knight Star.

On the floating island, a secret welcome banquet is being held in the newly built, magnificent hall.

In addition to the highest-ranking members of the Gendaya Royal Court, the attendees also included three leaders of the Serpent Ring Family.

Logo sat in the main seat, his demeanor both approachable and authoritative, maintaining the proper distance.

However, his attitude still delighted Chief Webster and Elder Baudelaire, as it was far more welcoming than they had expected, not at all like a first encounter, and there was no sense of unfamiliarity.

This natural intimacy was hard to fake in front of the two shrewd Webster.

Therefore, the two naturally attributed the credit to Elder King Larken, who was sitting opposite them.

Yes, I was right. That lightning-type powerhouse who disguised his aura and used the Ten Thousand Serpents Armor was indeed the Grand Elder of the Royal Court, Jin Laken. He must have spoken well of the Serpent Ring Family, which is why His Majesty was so friendly to us at our first meeting.

Webster and Baudelaire both thought the same thing.

Then, they each gave Elder King Larken a knowing look.

This action baffled even the Grand Elder, who was drinking at the time. He was completely bewildered, wondering if this was some kind of special etiquette of the Serpent Ring Family.

So he tentatively returned a similar look.

Webster and his companion exchanged a smile after receiving the 'response'.

That's it, it really was him!

It seems we need to get closer in the future.

Neither side tried to hide their actions from Logo. It's normal for subordinates to form cliques; keeping it from their superiors would be a grave mistake.

Seeing the three of them exchanging flirtatious glances, even Logo, with his temperament, almost burst out laughing.

His lips twitched incessantly, and he almost couldn't control his micro-expressions.

It's really hard to hold back.

To avoid revealing his true colors to his subordinates, Logo looked at Webster and said, "I've heard that your Serpent Ring Family has a Legendary named Fujia Ring Serpent. He's quite strong and cautious in his actions, and is a leading figure among the new generation of your family?"

"I am unworthy of Your Majesty's praise. Compared to Your Majesty, Fujia is like a speck of dust to the sun, an ant to a dragon, utterly insignificant." Webster quickly stood up and Logo with praise.

His words weren't deliberate flattery, but rather sincere. After all, considering Logo's rise to power, within the historical framework of the entire Elven Plane since its inception, he was virtually unparalleled among his peers of the same age.

Otherwise, why would such an ancient and powerful family as the Serpent Ring Family bother coming all this way to seek refuge?

Why would Webster, a High-Rank Demigod, be so respectful to Logo?

There's a reason for all of that!

If you want others to respect you, you must first prove yourself!
