Song Chi's breathing paused slightly. The fatigue from a second ago seemed to completely vanish at this moment, leaving only the curiosity about the detailed information of the three Soldier Figurine Tree Components in front of him.
His gaze swiftly circulated over the three, beginning to examine their specific attributes.
Subsequently, three attribute panels emerged one by one before his eyes.

{Soul Shatter: The attack methods of the Void Assassin Clan directly strike the soul, causing additional damage to the enemy's soul with each attack}
After inspecting the attributes of all three, Song Chi fell into deep thought.
The first option he eliminated was the [Night Gargoyle Soldier Figurine Tree].
Compared to the others, the Night Gargoyle Soldier Figurines were the most balanced, a sort of jack-of-all-trades Soldier Figurine, lacking both the tank-like attributes of the Huangjin Warriors as well as the mystical Stealth Trace, Void Travel, and unseen killing abilities—the natural talents of the Void Assassin Clan.
In Song Chi's view, these kinds of Soldier Figurines, which lacked any unique advantage and were too mediocre, even though they could fly with their wings, stood no chance against the Void Assassins, creatures as notorious as the Void Demons in the void.
As a Torch Ship Captain with a proper higher education, Song Chi had some understanding of creatures like the Void Assassin Clan.
They were nearly as infamous as the Void Demons, and their ability to freely fly through the Starry Sea was just a minor aspect.
The key was the astonishing space-related innate gift of these creatures.
They could traverse the Void Gaps just like Void Demons, dancing in void storms, appearing and disappearing without a trace.
On the Song family's Genetic Bloodline chart, they were rated higher than the Thorned Flying Dragons, entering the fifth tier with a Genetic Bloodline Rating as high as 85.
Therefore, the choices that Song Chi had to face next were simply two.
One was the robust and tough Huangjin Warrior Figurines, serving as frontline tanks.
The other was the enigmatic children of the void, the Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurines, who come and go without a trace.
As time passed, a minute later, Song Chi made his decision.
"I choose 3, the Void Assassin Clan Soldier Figurine Tree!"
The reason for this choice, of course, came after careful consideration. He factored in his actual situation, compatibility with the different components of the Cang Qiong, and so on, before prudently making his decision.
Firstly, as masters of Stealth Trace and free travel through the Starry Sea, coupled with devices like the Brainwave Remote Control System and the Fixed-Point Launch Pad, they could be maximally effective in scouting from a distance, ambush from the void, and long-range monitoring.
Furthermore, he never forgot about those Void Demons outside the Ruins Market Secret Realm. With a significant number of Space Solidification Stones infused into Cang Qiong's Warship Armor, he planned to venture into the void to hunt those Void Demons.
If he added these Void Assassin Clan puppets, which were in no way inferior to the Void Demons in the Void Gaps, he believed he would be able to hunt down Void Crystals more quickly, more abundantly, and more safely.
Additionally, even though the Huangjin Warrior Figurines sounded like they would be more compatible with the "Immortal Domain civilization," Song Chi had used the Star Sea Ruin Market Rank to communicate with the Zhu Tian Ruins Market multiple times before without any response, implying that there is highly likely no connection between the Immortal Puppet Tower and the Zhu Tian Ruins Market.
If the Immortal Puppet Tower has nothing to do with the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, then it's even less probable for a Soldier Figurine Component distilled from it to be connected.
However, that seemed reasonable. Taking Torch Human Civilization as an example, being one of the super civilizations in the Shattered Starry Sea, the Torch Human Civilization Territory not only includes ordinary nations and duchies, but also a substantial number of kingdoms, and above these are the Four Great Super Empires, with an abundance of power.
Could it be expected that among these many forces, any two would have some causal connection? Not to mention causality, it wouldn't be strange if there's absolutely no interaction between them from the start to the end.
Following Song Chi's confirmation, a splendid orange light appeared from the ends of the vast Starry Sea, shooting towards the Cang Qiong's location.
At last, the orange light transformed into a Soldier Figurine Tree Component, quietly hovering in front of Cang Qiong.
