The Starting Point for Conquering Xandar

Harvey had been puzzled before. Sonia had joined the Void and already tasted the joy that delicious food brought, yet she was still able to remain firm in her will and control her actions.

Now he understood. To Sonia, the most important thing after joining the Void was not allowing herself to lose her mind.

So Sonia treated it as something she absolutely had to do well.

Even though he had said money was not a problem, Sonia probably saw herself as his steward, so she had begun cutting expenses for him.

"Mr. Kassadin, the key reason this construction will require a large sum of money is that the roads, villas, training grounds, harbor, and other facilities need to be built within a month."

"To accomplish that, we’ll need to mobilize a great number of people, and the workers’ wages will be relatively high."

"If the schedule were extended and construction could be completed within two to three months, we could save at least twenty million on labor costs."

"Also, according to your requirements, the materials alone for the training facilities will cost a great deal."

"Would you like to know more details?"

Although Sonia could not see Mr. Kassadin’s expression, she sensed his approval and felt somewhat delighted as she continued explaining.

"No need. You can handle it."

"As for carving the Stone Tablet, I really am more suited to doing that myself."

"But there’s no need to extend the schedule. We don’t lack that little bit of money."

"As long as they can start work and finish quickly, that’s enough."

"Once you’ve handled this properly and satisfied me, I’ll give you a reward."

Harvey shook his head at her words, picked up the Universal Communicator, tapped it a few times, and transferred 153 million.

"Then I’ll look forward to it."

"I need to find people from the construction companies now and take them to the island."

"So I may not be able to return to deliver your meal until dinner time."

Sonia smiled confidently when she heard that.

"I’ll find something to get by on this afternoon. Go."

Harvey casually replied, then turned around and continued playing his game in peace.

Having received permission, Sonia tidied up her appearance and set off to handle the matter.

In the first-floor lobby of the Celebrity Hotel.

The other women watched Sonia leave in high spirits, get into her luxury car, and drive away. Their confusion only deepened.

Their main concern was whether Sonia had been rejected or lured into something.

But even if they asked directly, they would not get an answer.

After all, even if someone really had become another person’s mistress, they generally would not flaunt it openly.

Among the villa managers working at the Celebrity Hotel, half were Xandarians, while the other half came from other planets, catering to a variety of preferences.

This allowed guests to experience both exotic charm and the feeling of being at home.

But whether they were from Xandar or another planet, the only women who would proudly spread the news of being kept were usually those with little sense.

The smart ones would do everything possible to conceal such matters, preserving a good reputation for themselves and leaving themselves a way out.

Meanwhile, Sonia contacted the three construction companies from her car. Since different projects needed to be built and they also needed to review the construction plans,

she directly asked each company to send someone to negotiate with her.

This was the first task Mr. Kassadin had assigned to her. No matter what, she had to complete it to his satisfaction.

While Harvey was playing his game, he suddenly received a system notification that three people wished to learn about the Void.

He immediately looked down over Xandar City and saw Dam displaying his strength to his three companions while constantly muttering something.

So he did not hesitate and directly granted permission.

Dam and several of his colleagues were on an uninhabited mountain because they were off duty today.

"Dam, we believe that you gained power."

"But does repeatedly saying that we want to join the great Void really work?"

"Yeah, we’ve been saying it for several minutes already."

"Why don’t you apply for us and see if we can visit Great God of the Void Kassadin together?"

The several tall guards were all dressed in casual clothes, their broad and powerful chests clearly on display.

"Lord Kassadin’s words are absolutely correct."

"He said that the great Void would give everyone one chance. As long as they were devout enough, they could receive the Void blessing."

"Do you even want to change your lives or not?"

Dam spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Of course we do, but we’ve been saying it for half an hour already."

"And when we ask what exactly the Void is, you can’t explain it either. What are we supposed to do?"

The three burly men also looked helpless when they heard Dam’s words.

When they saw Dam leap five or six meters into the air, they could hardly describe how envious they were.

With that kind of strength, even if they could not join the Nova Corps, they could keep their current jobs for now and spend their breaks doing day labor, carrying bricks or something. They could earn a great deal of extra money.

Improving their lives would be effortless. Once they became stronger, they would have even more choices.

"Stop complaining and keep trying…"

"If it really doesn’t work, then I’ll have to wait until I’m fortunate enough to meet Lord Kassadin and ask him in detail."

Dam spoke helplessly after hearing them.

It was not that he did not want to explain. It was simply difficult for him to explain it himself.

After all, Lord Kassadin had personally guided him into joining the Void, so honestly, he did not really understand what the Void meant either.

He only knew that in the vast universe, he had seen Lord Kassadin’s figure, along with other beings who looked incomparably terrifying.

Lord Kassadin was one of the many gods of the Void. He did not ask to reach Lord Kassadin’s level.

As long as he could change his life, join the Nova Corps, make a name for himself, rise to the peak of life, and have enough wealth to spend along with a beautiful wife, that would be enough.

The reason he had brought his colleagues along was also because he wanted to fulfill his earlier promise. He had not forgotten them and wanted to see whether he could bring them with him.

Lord Kassadin had tasked him with spreading the teachings of the Void and had said that he looked forward to Dam’s performance.

He had not even shown any results yet, so if he went to ask for help in such a pathetic state, it would be embarrassing no matter how he thought about it.

The burly men understood that Dam probably did not dare to meet Lord Kassadin over such a trivial matter.

But they truly yearned for an opportunity like Dam’s, so they would no longer need to remain ordinary guards.

So they could only continue chanting.

"Great Void, great Lord Kassadin, please grant me power…"

Driven by the longing in their hearts, the three of them chanted with devout sincerity more than ten times.

Suddenly, they felt the world before their eyes undergo a tremendous change, and they found themselves in a starry expanse.

"It really worked. Lord Kassadin truly didn’t deceive me."

Dam watched as his companions’ bodies suddenly rose into the air, while wisps of purple energy emerged from the Void and entered their bodies.

Although he had never witnessed it himself, he believed that this had to be the blessing bestowed by Great God of the Void Kassadin.
