Beep! Beep!
Just as Han Xiaoxin was thinking about this, his communicator rang twice. It was a call from Tarrokov.
He picked up the call, and Brother Tarrokov's face appeared on the screen with a smile on his face.
"Black Star, well done. I like how decisive you are."
The external organizations were not sure who the organization that attacked the Modo Civilization was, but the dynasty obviously knew that it was the Black Star Corps.
"You don't like me when I'm different?" Han Xiao looked calm on the surface, but he was chuckling in his heart. "Don't forget to fulfill your end of the deal and compensate me with resources."
Taking revenge on the Modo Civilization was also what the dynasty needed, and they were prepared to make an example out of them.
Because it was not suitable for them to take action personally, the dynasty borrowed Han Xiao's strength. Of course, they would not let the Black Star Corps work for free. They had already signed an agreement in private. Black Star would be responsible for educating the Modo Civilization with force, and the Red Empire would pay resources as compensation.
In the eyes of the dynasty, this was hiring an ally to attack the enemy, but in Han Xiao's eyes, it was using the dynasty's money to do his own mission. He could even earn some extra benefits.
"Don't worry, we haven't gone back on our word yet." Tarrokov smiled and asked, "How do you plan to deal with the captives of the Modo Civilization?"
"Some will stay in the army as secret labor, and the rest will be thrown to the Kunde Race's territory."
Old Tarrokov nodded. "No matter what, cut off all their channels of communication with the outside world and make them disappear forever. Don't leak any information."
"The success rate of breaking my information blockade is close to zero. There's no need to worry about that."
"That's true. You're a Virtual Mechanic, after all. I'm overthinking things, "Old Tarrokov said with a smile." Actually, it's not a big deal. I just want to give you some instructions … In any case, please increase your efforts against the Modo Civilization. I'll be going first. "
The communication was hung up. Han Xiao curled his lips in his heart.
To disturb him for such a small matter, there was probably a hint that the dynasty knew about the movements of the Black Star Corps. It was probably to tell him not to mess around with anyone else other than the Modo Civilization … or maybe it was also influenced by the Meeting of the Gods.
"Tsk, scheming again."
Han Xiao put away the communicator and threw this matter to the back of his mind.
He walked to the fridge in the room, opened the door, and took out a sweet concentrated nutrition bar. He nibbled on it like a snack while thinking about another problem.
Now, all the players were rushing to the Flickering World, and the Shattered Star Ring was the closest. It would not take long for the army players to arrive at the Flickering World first.
Now that the version had just started, the players still needed some time to adapt before they could gradually get on the right track and compete with each other.
In his previous life, players fought for their respective factions. Other than a few famous national wars, the reason for fighting under normal circumstances was either due to conflicting faction quests or to snatch the resources of other guilds. In such an environment, solo players found it increasingly difficult to survive. Hence, there was a general trend for players to group up, which led to more and more players establishing guilds.
According to the statistics, in Version 4.0, the number of guilds was on the rise. The more time passed, the more guilds there would be. The turning point for the explosive growth of the number of guilds was a famous event. A few large guilds in America, led by the Devil World Club, jointly established a formal organization recognized by the outside world. Through bidding, they obtained a super opportunity that other players fought over and obtained official authorization.
After that, the players began to value the role of guilds more and more. They began to group up on a large scale, and the guilds formed a formal organization recognized by the outside world. Then, as an organization, they used business, diplomacy, and other means to cooperate with the organizations in the universe.
As such, the role of guilds was very obvious. The resources that they could obtain were many orders of magnitude higher than ordinary players.
This playstyle existed in the previous versions as well, but it was only in Version 4.0 that it became popular and ushered in a turning point in the players' lives. The reason was the increase in the strength of the players in Version 4.0, which caused a qualitative change in their influence on the universe environment. Only then did they have the capital to establish their own organizations and be valued.
"Now, because the faction advantage that I gave the army players is too big, the players from the other Star Fields will very likely work together to suppress the army players' advantage. When everyone adapts to the new version, the army will definitely be at a disadvantage. After all, there are too many opponents."
Han Xiao pondered.
Since the army players had the advantage now, he did not mind giving them a push and letting them lead to the end.
Originally, all the players would need some time to adapt before they gradually entered the stage of forming guilds and organizations on a large scale. Han Xiao planned to let the army players enter the era of full guilds in advance.
This required some incentive system adjustments.
Han Xiao thought for a while, summoned Philip, and proposed a new system that was only targeted at the players, the Immortals.
Through making contributions (farming contribution points) to advance to a high-level Profession and satisfy the Super Grade of Grade B or above, they would be qualified to form a new type of battle team. The number of members must not be less than two, and there was no limit to the number of members. The team could be named. After the formation was completed, they could report to the army. Every month, according to the completion of missions and the total contribution points of the team members, they would be awarded special Team Merit Points.
Team Merit Points could be used to exchange for large-scale resource supplies or other things, such as equipment, knowledge, and skills. There was also an important use, which was that they could be used to exchange for various levels of agency qualifications in the army's various businesses. They could also be used to bid for some special projects or exchange for the mining rights of some resource planets. There were many uses that leaned towards this.
Not only that, as long as they accumulated enough Merit Points, they could choose to become an affiliate organization under the Black Star Corps and have a certain degree of independence. After that, the Merit Points could be used to request for the army's support, or to exchange for the army's authorization, using the army's name to do some strategic operations that were not illegal, or to provide a strategic plan application for joint operations between the two sides. It was equivalent to having a part of the right to speak and cooperating with the Black Star Corps as a semi-independent organization.
"This should be about right …"
Han Xiao looked at the outline of the new system several times and nodded.
The purpose of this system was to 'legalize' the player guilds.
Originally, guilds only existed among the players and were not recognized by the galactic society. For example, the Temple of God Guild. NPCs did not know of the existence of the Temple of God Guild, let alone who was a member. However, this system was to allow the player guilds to be directly recognized by the army system and become an official organization with records.
This way, the player guilds would become a real organization in the universe.
The purpose of the Team Merit Points was to stimulate the interest of the army players in establishing guilds. Without needing to adapt to the version, many people would try to play this way, especially the official guilds of the powerful clubs. They would definitely submit applications.
In his previous life, in Version 4.0, there would always be players who would leave the NPC faction and establish their own organizations. With this new system, at least the inclination of the army players to do so would be greatly reduced.
The price was to give the player guilds a certain degree of independence, and there would be a certain amount of unrest in the army. However, at this time, giving the players more freedom was the only way.
With the increase in strength, the treatment would naturally increase as well. Han Xiao did not think that he was a black-hearted boss. Even if he wanted to squeeze them dry, he would give them enough money.
Version 4.0 was the turning point of the players' careers. From this point onwards, the players would become restless and spread the flames of chaos everywhere. He could not control the players as much as he did in the previous versions.
He had long planned to change this and give the player guilds a chance to develop. He would take out more resources to support the player guilds. Only in this way could the players, who were more and more unwilling to be restrained, continue to work for him.
At the same time, this system would also attract foreign players to poach the leeks of Old Wang next door.
Killing two birds with one stone, he could have both.
"Master, hum … Are you sure you want to release this new system?"
Philip sat on Han Xiao's collarbone like a little elf, his big eyes blinking as he looked up at the side of Han Xiao's face.
"Release the announcement first." Han Xiao planned to officially release this system after all the army players arrived in the Flickering World.
Before that, he would first let the players prepare in advance and call their friends.
"Okay, hum …"
Han Xiao paused, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Some time ago, I studied the logic structure of Risda and had some new ideas. I'll update them for you in a few days to increase your computing power."
Hearing this, Philip's eyes sparkled, and he flew to Han Xiao's face. He hugged Han Xiao's nose, placed his chin on the bridge of his nose, and looked into Han Xiao's eyes.
"Philip loves Master the most, hum …"
"Don't act cute with me." Han Xiao raised his brows and flicked Philip away from his nose.
…
The news of the Modo Civilization being attacked spread like wildfire in the Flickering World. Many organizations were discussing this matter in private. This news also reached the ears of the other Supercluster civilizations.
Many Supercluster civilizations immediately held meetings.
"Modo being attacked was most likely done by the dynasty. The two of them are fighting so quickly."
"Will this be the dynasty's first step against our Supercluster civilization?"
"Doesn't look like it. It seems to be a personal grudge between the dynasty and Modo."
"Hmm, after we pass the first and second regions, we'll help Modo when we have the chance. We can't let the dynasty beat them too badly."
Because they knew that the three Universal Civilizations would not let them develop in the Flickering World, most of the Supercluster civilizations had already formed a secret Supercluster Alliance in private to resist the evil intentions of the three Universal Civilizations.
Modo being attacked, according to the agreement, the other Supercluster civilizations had all decided to lend a helping hand at the right time.
Although this matter did not seem to have anything to do with them, the Supercluster Alliance did not want to give the dynasty a chance to take them down one by one. Although the Modo Civilization was their competitor, resisting the pressure of the three Universal Civilizations was the most important task for the Supercluster Alliance. Everyone knew that they could not be divided internally, so they did not mind helping their competitor. Only then would they have a chance to break the three Universal Civilizations' blockade of the new Field.
…
With the army and the dynasty covering for them, no witnesses discovered any traces of the attacking force. After a while, the Black Star fleet that attacked the Modo Civilization finally gathered and returned to the Garu Star Cluster through a secret passage. They sent the selected captives to the Kunde Race planet in the Odoran Star System.
With the help of the Black Star Corps, a large number of cities were built on every colonial planet, so they did not lack living resources.
The Kunde Race had been resting for more than ten years. Although they had not walked out of the trauma of the war, many of them chose to enjoy peace and live a good life.
In the past few years, all communication between the colonial planets and the outside world had been blocked. The residents of each planet could only log into the network of their planet's server, so they knew nothing about what was happening outside. They were like isolated islands in the universe.
The army and the dynasty controlled all the media channels and did not allow private media to exist. The Kunde Race could only accept the dynasty's cultural transformation in literature, music, movies, and so on, using various entertainment channels to subtly change their thinking.
Living such a quiet and numb life, they had no chance to resist, and anger was useless. Many people only had helplessness and resignation in their hearts.
However, today, the official channel that was broadcasting cultural transformation programs every day suddenly released a piece of news that made countless Kunde Race members excited.
His Excellency Black Star has fulfilled his promise and taken revenge for the Kunde Race. He has captured a group of captives and is about to send them to the colonial planet of the Kunde Race.
This news immediately caused an uproar!
Although this generation of the Kunde Race was powerless to resist, they had not forgotten their hatred. Compared to the dynasty, they hated the mastermind who used the Kunde Race even more.
When the time came, countless Kunde Race members arrived at the designated landing port early and looked up at the sky, waiting for the arrival of these captives.
"Hu hu …"
Spaceships broke through the atmosphere one after another, and more and more of them landed at the port.
The hatch opened one after another, and batches of Black Star Corps soldiers walked out with unarmed captives.
The captives that were sent over had all been filtered, and those who were too strong were eliminated. The captives were all wearing the same prison uniform, and all their belongings had been confiscated. They were of no threat at all.
There was a sea of Kunde Race members around them, and the captives could not help but feel nervous when they saw so many ferocious creatures surrounding them.
"What planet is this? Why did they send us here?"
"What are these creatures? Are they beasts? "
"They're wearing clothes. They're intelligent creatures."
"Why are they all staring at us? It's a little scary."
Using the Kunde Race was a secret of the upper echelons, and these ordinary soldiers naturally did not know about it. Many of them did not even recognize this species and could not help but feel confused. They did not understand why these intelligent creatures were staring at them.
Right at this moment, a rock suddenly flew out from the crowd and smashed into the head of a Modo captive.
Pa!
This captive groaned and hurriedly covered his head.
Before his companions could react, countless items flew out from the crowd and smashed into all the captives.
Cries of agony could be heard as the captives were smashed one after another. The Black Star Corps soldiers at the side looked on coldly and only acted after the captives were smashed for a while. They activated their shields to block all the flying objects, and the ground was quickly filled with items.
Although no one died, the captives were still in shock.
"Why are they smashing us?"
"Why did the Black Star Corps send us here?"
The captives looked around anxiously and finally understood why the eyes of the Kunde Race were filled with hatred and anger.
Right at this moment, an army soldier at the side snorted and said coldly, "They're the Kunde Race, a native civilization of the Flickering World. During the second exploration phase, the Modo Civilization secretly made use of the Kunde Race to instigate a conflict between them and the dynasty, resulting in the destruction of the Kunde Race. All of you are their enemies. Stay here and atone for your sins."
After hearing this, all the captives fell silent. Their eyes were wide open, and their faces were full of shock.
Sending us to the territory of our enemies … is this to vent their anger on them?
You said that you would give us a way out, but you want us to suffer a fate worse than death?
It's over!
Every captive had a gloomy expression on their face, and they did not dare raise their heads. They were pushed forward and sent to the prison on the land vehicle.
The land vehicle slowly left the dock, and from the start to the end, the surrounding Kunde Race members stared at these captives.
The crowd did not disperse for a long time. After a while, someone said softly,
"Back then, Black Star said that he would seek justice for us, and it was actually true …"
"I didn't expect Black Star to always keep his promise."
"I misunderstood him. It turns out that he's such a noble person."
Many of the Kunde Race members sighed.
Over the past decade, the Black Star Corps had managed the planet and provided them with countless living resources. Coupled with the promotion of the entertainment industry, the Kunde Race was already very familiar with the army.
In terms of feelings, the Kunde Race did not have much hatred for the Black Star Corps, but not many of them believed that Han Xiao's promise was just a perfunctory one.
After all, the current Kunde Race was just a bunch of 'prisoners' who could not resist. Why would Black Star waste his energy to seek justice for them? After more than ten years, they had probably forgotten about this matter.
Just when they had lost all hope in him, Han Xiao used his actions to prove that he was not joking.
In the eyes of the Kunde Race, Black Star immediately became the only hope for their race to seek justice.
While the Kunde Race was pleasantly surprised, they all felt gratitude toward Han Xiao. There was even more anticipation in their hearts.
The impression that Han Xiao gave them gradually changed from an irrelevant figure to a benefactor.
Black Star, you're a good person!
