541: Make a big show of it!

Liu Ye's plan was simple and clear: to reveal the true nature of the Heavenly Demon Star.

In the boundless Star Sea, first impressions are always very important.

If you see an ordinary planet with equally ordinary technological development, the discoverer will very likely initiate an attack.

But the Heavenly Demon Star, wrapped beneath thick rock layers, is different; it is a living planet, possessing the ability to attack on its own.

Instead of developing discreetly and cautiously, it's better to fully display one's strength to deter petty individuals!

"You decide, I'm fine with anything."

After listening to Liu Ye's explanation, Chen Heng understood why he and Liu Ye got along so well.

Their personalities were actually quite similar; neither of them liked to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.

If it weren't for the circumstances, Liu Ye would probably be even more unrestrained than him.

In Chen Heng and Liu Ye's view, having strength but hiding it was pure nonsense.

Strength is something that needs to be displayed to achieve its maximum effect.

Hiding oneself, letting others underestimate you, and then counter-killing—Chen Heng and Liu Ye were both extremely repulsed by such behavior.

"According to my development plan, the completion time needs to be pushed back by about another year."

Liu Ye estimated the approximate time.

With the Kuola Clan's space warp technology, what originally required three to five years of development was instantly shortened to one year.

"After a year, if there are no other accidents, we will set off towards the civilization closest to us."

"There's no need to make everything perfect; advancing while developing is the best choice."

"Alright, just call me if you need anything." Chen Heng nodded, shifting his attention to Fila.

"Here, this is a translator." Liu Ye saw that Chen Heng had something to ask Fila and handed him the translator he had already prepared.

"What is an Overlord?" Chen Heng made no attempt to hide his lack of understanding of the Star Sea and asked directly, getting straight to the point.

"Mighty Overlord, you are an Overlord." Fila's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly lowered his posture to the absolute minimum.

"Of course I know I'm an Overlord, what is your definition of an Overlord?"

Chen Heng frowned; this guy was a bit too slick, it felt like he needed a good beating to become honest.

Sensing the dissatisfaction emanating from Chen Heng, Fila quickly lowered his posture even further.

"Mighty Overlord, the Overlord often spoken of in the Star Sea refers to a level of strength."

"My status is too humble, and I don't know much about these things, but I will tell you everything I know."

"The Overlords I know of are divided into five Ranks."

"They are Stardust-level Overlord, Starlight-level Overlord, Comet-level Overlord, Planet-level Overlord, and Galaxy-level Overlord."

"The highest Rank I can comprehend is Galaxy-level Overlord; higher Ranks are not something a humble speck of cosmic dust like me can observe."

"Then what Rank am I at?" Chen Heng licked his lips; it seemed that indeed, there were countless powerful individuals in the vast Star Sea.

"You..." Fila was trembling so much he was about to collapse to the ground; he, a piece of trash who wasn't even an Overlord, was being asked about his strength by an Overlord.

"Speak!" Chen Heng's eyes widened, scaring Fila to the point of nearly vomiting.

"I, I believe you should be a Planet-level Overlord!"

Fila used all his strength to state his judgment.

"Very good..." The smile on Chen Heng's face became ferocious; what he loved most was challenging existences stronger than himself.

Crushing those weaker than him could no longer bring Chen Heng pleasure; only more powerful individuals could make Chen Heng's blood boil again.

According to Fila's statement, a Planet-level Overlord should be considered a mid-tier powerhouse in the Star Sea.

If he also factored in his power doubling after death, Chen Heng still seemed invincible in this part of the Star Sea.

But there were too many unknowns in the Star Sea, and Chen Heng couldn't guarantee that his power doubling after death would always be effective.

He still needed to diligently improve his strength... "Alright, I've got motivation again." Returning the translator to Liu Ye, Chen Heng stood up, intending to leave.

Over these three years, he had accumulated ninety-three thousand Optimization chances, and it was time to use them.

Before setting off, Chen Heng planned to work hard to see if he could make his strength reach that of a Galaxy-level Overlord.

He was going to the Star Sea to challenge the strong, to experience a 'thrill'.

What kind of situation was it to be looked down upon everywhere because his strength was too weak? The strength of a Planet-level Overlord simply couldn't satisfy Chen Heng's needs.

If he was going to show off, he was going to do it big!

He wanted to announce to the entire Star Sea, the entire Universe, that he, Chen Heng, had arrived!

Seeing Chen Heng leave, Fila, who had almost been scared to vomit, finally climbed up from the ground.

Compared to Chen Heng, Liu Ye, also a researcher, made Fila feel more at ease.
