She changed her ID in the chat group to her own name.
Stelle fired off a string of questions.
[The world-famous Astral Express is setting off again, how could anyone not know the nameless passengers aboard it?]
[If we're really talking about relationships… well, it's only to the extent that I know him, but he doesn't know me.]
[As for me being on that planet… have you ever heard of the Luofu?]
On the Astral Express, Stelle stared at Levi's reply.
"Luofu?"
"Hm? Where did you hear that name?" March 7, passing by, stopped and asked curiously.
"A friend of mine, his home's on Luofu."
Stelle turned to March 7. "Can you tell me more about Luofu?"
"Ahem, ahem." March 7 scratched her head. "I don't know much about Luofu, only that it's a force under the Hunt's command."
"I think Dan Heng's from the Xianzhou, right? You can go ask him."
Hearing March 7's words, Stelle immediately grabbed her and headed toward Dan Heng's room.
"Luofu…"
Hearing that familiar name, Dan Heng's mind went blank for a moment.
'Of five people, three must pay the price…'
'!!!'
A flash of red streaked through his mind. Dan Heng's pupils shrank. When he came back to himself, he saw March 7 and Stelle both looking at him worriedly.
"Are you okay?" March 7 asked anxiously. "We called you just now, but you didn't respond at all, I was this close to calling Mr. Yang!"
Stelle nodded. She'd even thought it might've been her fault, that she'd accidentally triggered some kind of keyword in Dan Heng and made him freeze.
"…I'm fine. I just remembered some bad memories."
Dan Heng rubbed his forehead.
"Luofu is one of the six great flagships of the Xianzhou Alliance…"
"Wait! You're saying Luofu isn't a planet, but a ship of the Xianzhou Alliance?"
Stelle's eyes went wide in disbelief.
'Just what kind of ship could sail through the sea of stars, and carry so many people?'
———
On the Xianzhou Luofu, Levi got up in his room and stretched his body a bit.
After some time studying, he already understood all the chat group's functions, and what the points earned from completing tasks were actually for.
In short, the chat group points had two uses:
First, to buy things.
Second, to draw prizes.
Levi had tried the lottery twice. His review?
It was purely a way for the chat group to recycle points.
A single draw cost very little, just 1,000 points.
But the odds of getting anything good were insanely low.
Levi had spent 10,000 points on a ten-pull, and got absolutely nothing.
All of it was just "Thank you for participating!"
So the "lottery" function could practically be ignored.
What caught Levi's interest instead was the "Shop" function.
Opening it, he found all sorts of supplies, rice, flour, oil, protective suits, and so on.
It felt like if Levi were living in a post-apocalyptic world, he could've lived quite comfortably thanks to the chat group.
But now he was in a highly advanced civilization, he didn't lack these kinds of materials.
He checked who had uploaded these items.
The names Kiana, Lumine, and Elysia appeared on the screen.
[What, none of you uploaded your own abilities?]
Or maybe they didn't even know they could upload abilities.
Levi thought about it and decided that was likely, so he chose to make a demonstration himself.
[Ding! Group member Levi has uploaded an ability: Honkai Disease!]
[Honkai Disease]
[Description: A disease caused by "Honkai." Those infected will slowly be eroded until death. Of course, there's also a chance of gaining tremendous power and becoming an existence known as a "Herrscher."]
[Source: Levi]
[Purchase Points: 250]

One message, and four lurkers all popped up.
[Elysia: You can upload your own abilities?!]
[Lumine: @Kiana What's going on?! What's going on?! Why didn't you tell us we could upload abilities?!]
[Kiana: I just found out too!]
[Ding! Group Leader Kiana has uploaded an ability: Kaslana Gunfighting Technique!]
[Kiana: You can even earn points for uploading abilities!]
Kiana's eyes widened as she saw an extra 1,000 points appear on her chat group panel.
[Stelle: Guys~ hurry up and upload your abilities! I want to get stronger!]
After leaving Dan Heng's room, Stelle sat cross-legged on her bed, giggling to herself.
If she could gain Levi's power, wouldn't she become the strongest Nameless in the whole universe?
Very soon, after hearing that they could earn points, everyone started uploading their own abilities.
[Ding! Group Leader Kiana has uploaded multiple abilities: Super Strength, Martial Arts, Cooking Talent (-100), Honkai Resistance (Advanced)!]
[Ding! Group Member Lumine has uploaded multiple abilities: One-Handed Sword Mastery, Anemo Mastery, Elemental Vision, Treasure-Finding Instinct!]
[Ding! Group Member Elysia has uploaded multiple abilities: Makeup Skills, Fashion Sense, Wanderer (Advanced), Honkai Resistance (MAX)!]
[Ding! Group Member Stelle has uploaded multiple abilities: Baseball Bat Mastery, Path of Destruction!]
Instantly, the shop's listings expanded significantly, and everyone's wallets grew fatter too.
[Stelle: ! The Path of Destruction is worth that much?! It gave me 20,000 points right away!]
Her Baseball Bat Mastery, on the other hand, was worth much less, just a measly 1,000 points.
[Kiana: !!! My Honkai Resistance (Advanced) is worth 15,000 points too!]
[Elysia: Me too, me too! My Honkai Resistance (MAX) is 30,000 points, double yours!]
Lumine looked at her highest-value ability, Anemo Mastery, worth only 5,000 points, and her eyes filled with envy.
[Lumine: Not jealous. (totally jealous)]
[Lumine: @Levi How about you? You only uploaded one ability worth 250 and stopped?]
[Levi: Right away!]
Seeing Lumine @ him, Levi opened his ability list and tapped Upload.
[Ding! Group Member Levi has uploaded multiple abilities: Slacking Mastery, Card Playing Mastery, Hacker (MAX)!]
The first two gave Levi 200 points in total.
The last one, though, instantly gave him 35,000 points.
Looking at the huge jump in his balance, Levi glanced at the "MAX" tag behind it and muttered, "Silver Wolf's hacking skill is really this insane?"
'MAX… Highest level?'
[Hacker (MAX)]
[Description: The ability of the world's top hacker, combined with Ether-editing technology, capable of realizing one's will.]
[Source: Levi (Silver Wolf)]
[Purchase Points: 350,000]
Glancing at the "Source" showing both his and Silver Wolf's names, Levi understood immediately.
This was something he had acquired from Silver Wolf through his own system, it was normal for the chat group to mark it that way.
But the fact that it even knew it came from Silver Wolf, that genuinely surprised him a bit.
Just as Levi was about to close the shop interface, he suddenly noticed something unusual.
He stared blankly at the price tag.
"One, two, three, four… four zeros… six digits?!"
'350,000 points?!'
"The selling price is 350,000, but it only gave me 35,000?!"
"Are you kidding me?!"
