CHAPTER 563: CHAPTER 257: WITCH DUEL ARENA? (6K)_2

"If I could also expand enough influence in the Starry Sky..."

Upon hearing this idea, Bai Yi was tempted.

"You handle the arrangements; if you need anything, you can contact the staff inside the store directly."

"Understood."

After leaving the market, Bai Yi felt refreshed, having completed all the tasks.

Now it’s just those Lords left, although many Lords are still in the transit area; whether it’s intelligence or guiding them, it still requires time...

After leaving the market, Bai Yi connected once more to the network woven by the witch maids she dispatched on the street, seeing many marked Lords through their perspectives.

Some were considering buying Mutant Plants under the guidance of witch maids, while others were having their conversations remotely monitored.

Though they might differ, they all will become stepping stones for her Conquest of other worlds...

For this intelligence, she needed to stay here for a while longer, waiting for all gathered intelligence.

Coming here was simple, but reverse contact from the witches here was challenging.

After all, the witches here were essentially Starry Sky People who had long stayed in the transit area.

The rules originally for protecting Lords or Contractors from being hunted by Starry Sky People now became limitations for her.

For them to contact her, they must first cross the Starry Sky to contact Xiao Teng, who would then communicate through the church established on that side with the territory.

This detour was considerable.

And she’s not in a hurry to return, with Gene Avatar agents upgrading and strengthening in her hands, five Avatars thrown into instances can surely spare a few to handle these genes.

Calculating this way, she found herself somewhat idle in the short term...

With her passive abilities, she couldn’t go out shopping streetwise, but hiding back in the store seemed like traveling and ending up gaming all day in a hotel, defeating the purpose of visiting the transit area.

Why not stroll around the combat arena?

Bai Yi suddenly recalled the idea proposed by the Appraiser earlier.

If things were managed well, she might really build enough connections in the Starry Sky on her own...

Though she can’t proactively expand her influence to the Starry Sky, she could at least gather more Fans in the transit area.

Thinking of this, Bai Yi made her decision and quickly headed to the combat arena to spend her remaining time there.

Until the streets of the transit area again reduced their flow of people, entering the "night," Bai Yi left the combat arena and returned to the store.

"I finally understand why my races keep wanting to fight outside; the idea of fighting an entire day without worrying about Magic Power and Life Force consumption feels truly satisfying!"

Although her ranking in the combat arena could no longer improve, much like normal games having ranking matches and matchmaking systems, the combat arena similarly has such mechanisms to ensure everyone can enjoy a fight at any time.

Of course, this mechanism generally benefits the strong, as they can draw spectators to purchase tickets, providing profits to the combat arena.

While the cost is leaving those beaten feeling utterly shut out.

She silently mourned today’s opponents for a second, then considered moving this concept to the territory...

After enjoying herself, Bai Yi began comprehending the combative tendencies of witches and other races within the territory, though development focus means they can’t always remain fighting.

And finding an outlet for this power, isn’t the combat arena a perfect channel?

Besides satisfying the battle urges of her subordinate races, a combat arena could serve as a test field for new Spells and Magic Weapons, helping to enhance their combat experience in actual battles...

Coupled with their inherent strong Life Force and Resurrection Abilities from the "Heroic Spirit Hall," there’s even no worry of casualties.

As for consumption?

Having explored three new planets, she has complete confidence to supply any losses from this ruckus, especially since it’s not a meaningless brawl but an extension of some kind of research...

She pushed open her store door, Bai Yi’s eyes sparkled, adding this plan to a "New Folder" and handing it over to Shang Ji for feasibility discussions.

Bai Yi first sought out the witches, beginning to aggregate all the intelligence collected today.

Using her brain as a temporary brain machine, processing all aggregated information swiftly, Bai Yi quickly extracted the key points.

"Great, a total of five Lords purchased plants with hidden contingencies; now it’s time to await the harvest of these five seeds...

It’s a pity no one touched that witch’s potion, otherwise...

Forget it, it’s indifferent now, and although witches are comprehensive, they aren’t suited for this kind of stealth invasion; that’s more aligned with the Insect Swarm.

Nonetheless, there were less than a hundred Lords this time...

Could some worlds not have Lords elevated yet?

And though it was thought different worlds might have varied Cycle Challenge processes, the differences are surprisingly considerable...

Some worlds even lacked regional barriers completely, starting with a public grand map.

Tsk, is this differentiation for game cultivation?"

After all, only snippets from different Lords were available; entering an unfamiliar area meant even among Lords, excessive self-information exposure was avoided.
