Astral Apostle

Zhou Jing had a plan for the development of the Eternal Apostles.

In his opinion, there were two main targets for the Eternal Apostle upon placement in the astral world.

One was naturally to continue to develop, constantly increase the upper limit of his strength, learn new skills, and provide his main body with a richer inventory of abilities.

The other was to earn resources, such as achievements, Astral Points, and Information State Particles.

This was because the Eternal Apostle did not have any pressure to complete the level, nor did they have a life objective to guide them. He could only use his initiative to determine what sort of "career" the Apostle could perform.

Jason's "life goal" had been completed. Suppose he wanted to obtain the Information State Particles now. In that case, he could only take the initiative to find an incident to intervene—and the undercurrent of the splitting of the Mutant World Empire, the tribes seeking independence, was clearly a major event that affected the entire process of civilization. With a certain amount of information, his involvement would be able to cause a considerable impact.

As for what role he would play in this storm… Zhou Jing decided to adapt to the situation and wait for an opportunity to act.

The current two factions were the empire and the various tribal lords. He was currently slightly inclined towards the Terra Empire… However, it was mainly because of Lutt's influence that he did not have a good impression of the tribal lords.

Killing foreign lifeforms seemed to be a way to obtain Information State Particles. However, the risk was too high, and he could not find anyone else at the moment. Therefore, Zhou Jing did not consider it as an option for the time being.

As for the big career plan, Zhou Jing still planned to let Jason develop as a Mutant Beast Hunter. On the one hand, only by being a hunter could he rightfully enjoy the priority supply of all kinds of resources, making it more convenient for him to carry out the subsequent enhancements through Mutant Blood.

On the other hand, he wanted to try to complete the previous milestone that he had triggered, which was [True·Mutant Beast Hunter].

He was still two goals away from completing this milestone— hunt a Fatal-Risk mutant beast as well as the King of Mutant Beasts.

Zhou Jing had thought about it. If Jason could break through the limit of Raven's strengthening or become the first person to kill the King of Mutant Beasts, he would most likely leave his name in history. In that case, he would definitely be able to create a sensational impact and produce a large wave of Information State Particles.

There was also the possibility of failure, but the Eternal Apostle was not afraid of death. It was more motivating to set a challenging target.

Of course, before Jason encountered the limit of the Mutant Blood Strengthening, Zhou Jing did not even consider trying to give the Mutant Beast King a taste of its own medicine. Besides, no one knew where the Mutant King was now.

"Let's set a small checkpoint first; become a Legendary Hunter."

Zhou Jing secretly made a plan.

Because White Plains Town was located in the northern part of the Empire, it would take about 20 days to reach the capital from his current location. With his sufficient endurance, he could greatly shorten this time.

However, Zhou Jing did not intend to go straight to the capital. Instead, he wanted to take a detour along the way to open up his map… At the same time, he wanted to explore the entire world and understand the local customs.

The larger the map, the more areas could be designated for placement. This was important for the subsequent deployment of the Astral Apostles.

Zhou Jing planned to wait until he opened a large map and let Jason gain a firm foothold in the capital before expanding the apostle slot to produce new Astral Apostles. This would save a lot of effort. Moreover, he would then have a deeper understanding of this world and have more ideas about the direction he wanted to take for the new Apostles.

Because his main body had already become a Super, he completed his original plan faster than expected and even decided to migrate. There was still a month and a half before he boarded the spaceship in the main world, so Zhou Jing was not in a hurry.

With this relaxed mentality, he planned to explore the Mutant Beast World and develop his Apostles.

"Regarding the other dimensional life forms… I'll slowly investigate when I reach the capital. As long as I keep acting as a Mutant Beast Hunter and don't show any actions that exceed this era, it won't be easy for others to suspect me."

Zhou Jing did not forget this. As a "dead person," he did not leave his name behind when he kidnapped Lutt. Naturally, no one would suspect him… However, the hidden danger was that he would be recognized by those who had seen him before. However, as long as he left the Northern Region, the chances of him being recognized should not be high.

Unfortunately, the Eternal Apostle could not adjust his appearance. Otherwise, he would have wanted to readjust his appearance when he projected it back into the realm.

"I have over 1,000 Taela silver coins on hand, so it's definitely sufficient for my travel expenses. I still have a lot of money to exchange for equipment and buy the blood potions directly… In that case, if I encounter good equipment or potions in other towns' hunter workshops, I can also buy them on the spot."

Zhou Jing stroked his chin and couldn't help but think of Maggi.

Many of the good mutant blood potions would be reserved, and he did not have a hunter certification in other towns. If he went to another town to buy potions, he might be cut in line like what happened between him and Maggi by the local hunters there.

In that case, it was better to pay attention to the mutant beast crusade missions in the various towns. If he personally hunted powerful mutant beasts, he would definitely have a share of the mutant blood potion based on the beasts he downed.

He did not want to break the workshop's rule of prioritizing the supply to the local hunters. If he could not buy them with money, he would do it himself.

After thinking about the follow-up plan, Zhou Jing composed himself and opened the achievement warehouse on the interface to count his rewards.

He had saved all the achievement rewards that he had triggered previously. Currently, he had [Aptitude Advancement - Physical Fitness (Small)] x3, [Attribute Advancement - Physical Fitness (Slight)] x2, [Aptitude Advancement - Resistance (Small)] x2, and [Aptitude Advancement - Comprehensive (Small)] x1.

There was still a lot of stock.

If the achievement reward was given to the new apostle, he could become stronger faster at the beginning of the game, and his growth would be faster. It would be easier to clear the level, but there was a risk of losing the rewards if it died… Therefore, Zhou Jing had been saving up the rewards.

On the other hand, if he used it on the Eternal Apostle, the enhancement results might not necessarily play a key role, but it would definitely not be a loss.
