Chapter 26 - Ch 26: Star Hunter Tower

When Aiden was still on Earth, he used to think that Star Warrior could only cultivate to a "legendary" stage that is above First-tier Star Warrior. Only now did he understand how ignorant he used to be about the world.

He has no idea if Earth is like Planet Ecaz, having many stages of Star Cultivation!

Anyway, what shocked him the most is that the Planetary Stage is not the limit, it is actually a starting point. There are many cultivation stages above the Planetary Stage, just that Aiden's authority was low, and couldn't view or learn about them.

Even so, now that he knew about so many stages of cultivation, Aiden wanted to become stronger than ever before.

In front of these powers, his father's strength was nothing. He believed when he returned, he could easily avenge his mother.

Calming his emotions down, Aiden scrolled and looked for the information about Riverside City, coming to know that Riverside is one of the bigger cities in the Blue Flame Kingdom.

As for Star Hunter Tower, it is said that Star Hunter Tower has its branches in every big city all around the world. The president of Star Hunter Tower in the Riverside City branch is named Marcus Wellings who is also a Glorious Gold Stage powerhouse.

As for the true owner of Star Hunter Tower, the information about this could not be found on the internet.

In fact, Aiden noticed many pieces of information were not available on the internet, and even if there is some important information available, they are locked and require a special permit to access that information.

Aiden ignored them, after all, all he wanted currently was to obtain basic information about this city and this world.

Looking in more depth, Aiden discovered that each Star Hunter Tower has a total of five floors. The first and second floors sell skills and weapons that can be used by White Dust Star Warriors and below. The third floor houses a large restaurant where Star Warriors can enjoy their meals. However, only Blue Spirit Star Warriors and above are allowed to enter the restaurant.

The fourth floor sells skills and weapons for Glorious Gold and Planetary Stage Star Warriors. The fifth floor has a list of tasks that Star Warriors could do if they want and after completing the task, they could obtain a lot of money in return!

.....

The next day, Aiden woke up early.

Today, he was prepared to go to the Star Hunter Tower and see if he could find any suitable skill to practice. The current him was lacking fight skills, and it was a weakness.

So, Aiden wanted to erase this weakness completely.

Furthermore, after spending credits, he could obtain Eternal Points that would further help him increase his strength in the shortest time possible!

Yesterday, he spent hours looking at the information related to Star Hunter Tower, Riverside City, and even the Blue Flame Kingdom.

Now, he could be said to have basic information about this world. Thus, he was not worried that people would doubt him for being an alien.

Knowing that Aiden is prepared to go to the Star Hunter Tower, Marcus had Lucy and Chris accompany him.

Aiden was still very innocent even though the fire of hatred was burning his heart. He trusted everyone too easily. He has no idea that Lucy and Chris have their own motives for accompanying him.

They wanted to know if he had a big background or not. If he has, then nothing matters. And if he doesn't, then he would either be forced by Wellings to become a part of their family or something bad might happen to him.

Anyway, for the time being, he was not in any kind of danger.

Not to mention, even if he was in danger, he would not have realized due to his naivety.

He only thought that Wellings are good people. They not only helped him when he was unconscious but also let Lucy and Chris accompany him to get familiar with Riverside City!

.....

"Is this a car that can fly?" 

Lucy and Chris led Aiden to their family's parking lot, where numerous cars were neatly parked. 

Although Aiden was intrigued, he didn't want to appear ignorant or inexperienced. Despite his fascination with the cars, he kept his expression neutral, revealing nothing of his curiosity. 

He had also read about various modes of transportation on the internet, which helped him conceal his amazement.

The science of this world far surpasses that of Earth. Even setting aside other modes of transportation, the mere fact that people no longer need planes to cover long distances in a short time is enough to demonstrate just how advanced this world is compared to Earth.

Here, hyperloops, flying cars, cannon subways, and more have become everyday realities.

Lucy and Chris led Aiden to a sleek, red sports car.

The moment Aiden laid eyes on it, he was captivated. The car's design was incredibly striking, with its bold, aerodynamic shape. The alluring curve at the front immediately drew his attention, exuding a charm that was impossible to ignore.

Seeing Aiden's interested expression, Chris smiled and spoke: "This car is specially customized by my father for me. It is handmade, and its defensive level is very high. The laser weapons and even many damage-dealing weapons are unable to cause any damage to this car.

Stopping for a few seconds, Chris continued to introduce the car to Aiden, saying: "This sports car can travel more than 2,000 kilometers per hour in the air and on the ground."

This time, Aiden's expression changed even more. Didn't a man drive a sports car because he wanted to experience the feeling of being as fast as lightning?

And then there were more surprises. When Chris saw the change in expression on Aiden's face, the corner of his mouth also revealed a trace of a smile and continued: "The outer shell of this sports car is made from the latest alloy materials."

Saying this, Chris opened the door and pressed a button inside. After that, under the gazes of the three people, the car changed: "In front of and behind this car, there are two laser cannons. The power of the four laser cannons is enormous. It is enough to destroy any enemy below Blue Spirit Stage!"

At this time, the car's transformation had already ended. Indeed, in front and behind this sports car. Four black cannons appeared.

Aiden was really shocked. He did not expect a mere car to have such a defensive measure, not to mention, it could even fly in the air at the speed of 2,000 km/hour.

Very soon, Chris, Aiden, and Lucy drove the car straight to the Star Hunter Tower.

According to the rule of Riverside City, no personal car could fly in the air. They have to drive on the ground.

In front of the Star Hunter Tower, Aiden came out of the car and raised his head, only to see a five-floored cylindrical tower. Although this tower only had five floors, its diameter alone was a few hundred meters.

On the third floor in the front of the tower, the three words "Star Hunter Tower" were written in a magnificent manner. The outer layer of the tower was completely covered in large blue glasses that intensified the beauty of the building.

"Let's go inside!"

Chris spoke and brought Aiden inside.

Because the president of Riverside City's branch of Star Hunter Tower is Marcus Welling, every employee working here knows Chris and Lucy very well.

When they saw Chris and Lucy coming, all of them immediately saluted and respectfully brought the three of them inside. They also curiously looked at Aiden, for neither Lucy nor Chris had ever brought a person with them here!

When Aiden entered the tower, he appeared in a large lounge area. Not far away, there were three reception counters where lines of Star Warriors could be seen.

As for why they were lining up, Aiden did not look at this matter.

He was here to buy skills. So, Chris directly brought him to the first floor where many skills were safely kept on mirror shelves.

Aiden started looking at the skills stacked in the rows of shelves one by one.

"Irregular Seven Fists!"

"Tangible Sword Dance!"

"Flawless Hundred Palms!"

"Shadowless Steps!"

There were thousands of these skills on the First Floor of the Star Hunter Tower. The more Aiden looked at them, the more shocked he became.

He really wanted to get them all, but he knew not to overdo things. These skills are of low levels, and as long as he becomes a Glorious Gold Stage Star Warrior, these skills will become useless.

He was confident that it wouldn't be long before he became a Glorious Gold Star Warrior.

After spending over two hours carefully examining every skill, he finally decided on Shadowless Steps and Irregular Seven Fists.

An assistant was present to explain each skill in detail. When Aiden confirmed his choice, the assistant opened the shelves, retrieved the two skill manuals, and said, "Dear customer, please follow me to complete the payment!"

Aiden did not think too much and nodded his head.
