106: Chapter 4 New System Features 106: Chapter 4 New System Features Shaking his head, Zhang Xiaoman sighed quietlyâit seemed his chuunibyou was acting up again.
Afterwards, having controlled the stones to fly around for quite a while, Zhang Xiaoman finally stopped, still feeling somewhat unsatisfied.
After all, having just gained this strange ability, he found it quite novel.
âHoweverâŠ
it seems this is all I can doâŠâ
Looking at the scattered stones on the ground, Zhang Xiaoman fell into deep thought again.
Earlier, he had wanted to try changing the shape and material composition of the stones, but he frustratingly found that he couldnât achieve that yet.
Whenever he tried to issue some other commands, a hindrance would emerge from deep within him.
This feeling was peculiar, akin to running in a dream, where you canât exert any strength.
âThis wonât doâŠâ
After several more attempts, he couldnât help but feel deflated.
Looking around at the barren landscape, Zhang Xiaoman shook his head inwardly, âI plan to use this place as gang territory in the future; itâs inevitable others will come here too.
Itâs fine now with just me, but itâs hard to say if it will be safe for othersâŠâ
His brows tightly furrowed, he continuously pondered countermeasures in his mind, âNo, I must transform the Original Realm Space to make it conform to Earthâs ecological environment, then others should be able to come in safelyâŠâ
Looking up at the sky not a hundred meters above, Zhang Xiaoman had a thought, and suddenly began floating, slowly drifting towards the top.
âMaybe the extent of my control over the Original Realm is linked to the size of this space?
Perhaps I should try expanding this space first?â
Having reached this thought, he felt he might have guessed the truth, and in his excited state, he flew around chaotically for a good while before stopping.
âI canât believe my first time flying is in this tiny space, but I must say, it feels awesome!â
After flying around in circles in the air, Zhang Xiaomanâs initially uneasy feeling had completely vanished.
He was like a child encountering his favorite toy, thoroughly enjoying himself.
Having lost track of time, perhaps growing tired of it, Zhang Xiaoman eventually returned to the ground.
He looked around and a satisfied smile spread across his face.
âAlthough there are many places that are not up to my expectations, overall, I am quite satisfied with this place.
Itâs only a few acres in size now, but I believe, with my hard work, it will grow, and might even turn into a new universe one day!
Then, I would be the Creator God here!
HahahaâŠâ
Lost in his grand fantasies for a moment, Zhang Xiaomanâs gaze unintentionally shifted to the place he had entered from, where there was an area glowing with milky white light.
Yes, he planned to go back.
He had been in this space for several hours now, having looked everywhere.
Although Zhang Xiaoman wielded many miraculous abilities here, the place was ultimately too monotonousâit was all just soil, and staying here too long made one feel bored and stifled.
âHmmâŠ
before going back, maybe I could draw a prize?â
Just as Zhang Xiaoman was about to return the way he came, he suddenly remembered something importantâthat he could use the secrecy of this space to use up the lottery draws he had been accumulating for a long time.
âItâs been more than ten days since I got on board, and I still havenât had a chance to participate in the lottery.
If I donât do it soon, Iâm afraid Iâll completely forget about it!â
Zhang Xiaoman recalled the time and was also a bit surprised, as he hadnât realized he had accumulated so many lottery entries.
When he summoned the system interface to prepare for the lottery, Zhang Xiaomanâs originally casual expression froze on his face, and he stared straight at the interface floating in front of him, momentarily forgetting his next move.
âThis, thisâŠ
Is the Ultimate Item really that powerful?
The System has actuallyâŠ
really been changedâŠâ he murmured, his face full of disbelief.
In front of Zhang Xiaoman, the system interface, which originally only had âStore, Lottery, and Upgradeâ as options, now had an additional new featureââGangâ!
Clearly, this new feature had appeared only after he activated the gang!
Zhang Xiaomanâs face was blank, and he instinctively clicked on the âGangâ button.
Immediately, a new page appeared before his eyes.
At the top of the interface were two characters he was very familiar withâStar Alliance.
This was the name he wrote on the Sect Establishment Order and also the name of the gang he had established.
Beneath Star Alliance, there was a list of gang members.
However, there were only a handful of people, including Zhang Xiaoman; in total, there were fewer than ten people.
Among these ten people, besides himself and his mother, the rest were names he had never seen before.
âAaron Griffin?
Caroy Brooks?
WhatâŠ
What is going on?
Who are these people, and why are they in my gang list?â
Zhang Xiaoman was full of confusion.
His eyes scanned over the member list, feeling completely baffled by the names he had never encountered before.
âIf it were Su Fu, Xiao Shun, I could understand, but who exactly are these guysâŠ
Eh?
Is it that, apart from me, the information behind the other people all has a ânot activatedâ note?
Does that mean they are not yet official gang members?â
Zhang Xiaoman thought to himself and looked at a certain place on the gangâs interface, where there was a count of the number of membersâ1/1.
â1/1âŠ
Thatâs right, so far my gang actually has only me in it.
As for those guys, perhaps they are recruitment suggestions given by the System?â Zhang Xiaoman looked at the attribute panel, making guesses based on his many years of gaming experience.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiaoman temporarily put this issue aside and involuntarily looked again at another section of the gang interface, the last section.
Although this gang feature was newly added by the System, it still maintained its consistently simplistic style.
Besides the member list, the only other section was the âGang Store.â
âGang StoreâŠ
My goodness, can it be any more exaggerated?
Why does it feel more and more like a money-pit store in a pay-to-win game?
This place isnât also consuming points, is it?â
Zhang Xiaoman immediately clicked open the gang store, and a window similar to the Store interface immediately appeared before him.
However, unlike the Store page, the items here were no longer just a few cats and dogs.
Instead, there was a dazzling array of products, densely packed and occupying the entire shelf, overwhelming to behold.
