The atmosphere at the temporary stronghold gradually became solemn. Players dug trenches, built defensive fortifications, bought weapons and ammunition from NPCs like Du Zexin and those at Triangle Town, or rented Arcane Energy from Li Aozi, and some even bought Genetic Weapons from N4.
Since they were about to head into space anyway, and aliens didn't recognize their worthless paper currency, Li Aozi had already issued the "Farewell Battle" Quest. Next, they would face the formidable Sky Ring Soldiers until the transformation of the Biological Pool was complete.
Given this, the players stopped holding back, spending all their Experience and Azure Star Currency on luxuries they wouldn't have dared to think about on regular days.
