Central Galaxy, Radiant Federation territory, Abyss of Stars.
A small spaceship with the army's emblem slowly moved through the vast galaxy. This was a Black Star Corps branch stationed in the Abyss of Stars.
This was the territory of the Radiant Federation. The Black Star Corps had been invited to establish a branch here more than twenty years ago, but the market here had long been divided up by many organizations. Coupled with the sensitive relationship between the Radiant Federation and the dynasty, the branch's development had been limited over the years, and its business share was very small.
The Black Star Army was not popular everywhere. At the very least, they did not have much prestige here. The members of the Black Star Army that were sent to the Abyss of Stars could not enjoy the reputation halo of the army, so they could not feel the benefits of the Black Star Army's influence. They were even often ostracized by some of the local Beyond Grade A organizations.
However, today, everything had changed.
At this moment, in the hall of this small spaceship, all the crew members were gathered together, silently watching the virtual screen in the hall. A piece of news was being broadcasted on it.
"… This station has learned that an unexpected incident occurred in the Flickering World yesterday. A total of twelve Beyond Grade As from the Arcane Church and the Radiant Federation attacked the frontline stronghold of the Black Star Corps in the free competition zone, attempting to kill the deputy commander of the Black Star Corps, 'Goddess of Death' Hella. After the incident, Black Star had rushed to the scene and fought against twelve Beyond Grade As. In the end, he had chased away all the enemies and captured four of them. Among them, one was from the Arcane Church and three were from the Federation of Light — 'Red Devil' Tolaen, 'Energy Soul' Womre, 'Lone Ranger' Jackornitz, and Hades. After that, Black Star traveled a long distance and captured another Beyond Grade A who was suspected to be involved in this matter, 'Beast Ancestor' Gorután. His performance was shocking, and the cause of this incident is still under investigation … "
As soon as he said that, cheers suddenly sounded in the cabin!
"Oh!"
All the crew members present raised their hands and cheered. Their excitement and ecstasy were beyond words.
"Hahaha, we finally taught the Radiance a lesson!"
"The Legion Commander is invincible!!"
Many of them had come because of Black Star's reputation. Now that they saw their leader achieve such a shocking result, they couldn't help but feel fanatical admiration for him.
This piece of news boosted morale and had already become the hottest topic within the army. The subdivision crew members present were even more elated. They were stationed in the Abyss of Stars and were often ostracized. Now that their boss had captured three Beyond Grade As from Radiance, one of them was the leader of the organization that ostracized them, everyone felt that their army commander had helped them vent their anger.
The excitement did not dissipate for a long time. In this atmosphere, the spaceship arrived at its destination. This was a transit planet, and the spaceship had been here many times before. It approached according to the instructions and docked safely at the spaceport.
As soon as the members of the subdivision got off the spaceship, they noticed that something was wrong. They looked around and saw that the pedestrians coming and going at the dock stopped at the same time. Everyone turned their heads and looked at the members of the Black Star Corps. Their eyes were filled with shock, fear, curiosity, and many other complicated emotions.
This time, the registration staff of the spaceport came up to them. Compared to the formalized politeness in the past, their attitude was completely different. Their faces were filled with smiles of eagerness and flattery. This was a treatment that the members of the Abyss of Stars rarely received.
"Haha, look at these guys. If we don't make them afraid, they won't know how to respect us."
Feeling the change in the attitude of the people around them, a sense of pride suddenly surged in their hearts. They felt that they could hold their heads high and felt honored. They didn't regret their choice to join the Black Star Corps anymore.
The reason for these changes was naturally the shocking battle results of their army commander. He had established his prestige in the entire universe, and the prestige of the faction had suddenly risen to the peak!
With such a leader, the future of the organization was limitless.
Similar scenes played out frequently in various regions of the universe.
…
Now, almost all the players were in the world server. The players at the frontline strongholds uploaded the battle videos one after another. Everyone's attention was immediately attracted by such explosive news.
On the forums, this incident had already flooded the Flickering World section, suppressing all the other topics. Countless people were discussing it excitedly.
The players did not know the twists and turns of this matter. All they cared about was the result of this battle, which was Black Star's terrifying battle results.
Under his dazzling performance, Hella was completely ignored by everyone. They all thought that Han Xiao had defeated twelve people by himself.
Even if they knew that Black Star was now a big shot at the peak, this kind of performance still exceeded the expectations of many players. They did not know much about the division of strength above the Beyond Grade A level, so they could only find it unbelievable.
"This is too amazing. I'm just asking who else is there!"
"I still remember that during the Planet Lighthouse battle, he was also surrounded, but at that time, the army commander had the help of the dynasty's allies. This time, there's almost no help, but he actually defeated twelve Beyond Grade As alone and even captured four of them. I'm shocked."
"Paging Pork Bun. Wake up and make a video. Hurry up!"
"I heard that the army commander did not hesitate to sacrifice his life to protect Hella. That's why he could unleash such strength."
"I'm shocked. Maybe this is love."
"The wife-protecting maniac is real. I'm rooting for this couple!"
"The army commander is awesome!"
Many players were discussing. Other than expressing shock at Han Xiao's battle results this time, there were even more people who were excitedly guessing the impact of this incident.
Now that the competition in the Flickering World was fierce, the Black Star Corps was also in turmoil. For such an incident to happen at this time, the effect of establishing dominance was simply unparalleled. Even the alliance of Radiance and Ethereal was taught a lesson by the army commander. This kind of result was enough to scare off countless people.
Furthermore, the Army Commander had also displayed a resolute attitude of taking down Gorutan, who had stirred up trouble behind the scenes.
This way, the faction advantage of the Black Star Corps would climb to the peak. During the competition in the Flickering World, who would dare to mess with the Black Star?
In the eyes of the Chinese players, there was a saying that could very well describe the result of Black Star's actions.
If you punch away, you'll avoid a hundred punches.
In comparison, the organizations that had been warned by the Black Star Corps during the faction war incident formed a stark contrast.
Due to the decision of these organizations to only take the beating without fighting back, the innocent casual players under their command had a deeper understanding of the importance of a faction. They were already dissatisfied with their faction, and now that they saw the huge news caused by the Black Star Corps, many of them were even more determined to change factions.
As the saying went, 'If you can't beat them, join them.' The first choice of these people to change factions was naturally the Black Star Corps.
The players who had just joined the army during this period had different feelings toward this matter.
In the previous versions, the players of the various countries were mixed in different Star Fields and could only watch the news of the Black Star Corps from the side. Now that they had joined the army, they could finally participate and discuss Black Star from the perspective of the faction members. This was a new experience.
In the past, they had only seen others praise Black Star. Now that they could finally go on stage and shout 'Army Commander is awesome' together, the feeling was indeed different.
These new army players personally felt what kind of comfort it was to have an awesome faction leader. They shouted 'Army Commander is awesome' even more enthusiastically than the old players. The forums were occupied by the army players, and they entered a carnival atmosphere.
When the old players saw how excited the new players were, they felt that these new players were too ignorant and could not help but feel a sense of superiority. They also enjoyed it.
The impact of this matter spread on many levels.
…
In the Arcane Church, the remote projections of many Beyond Grade As and upper echelons gathered together to discuss how to deal with this matter.
Although the mission had failed and Tolaen had died, the faces of the people present were not very serious. In fact, they were even a little happy.
"This operation failed. We did not manage to kill Hella, but we are not disappointed with this result." An Ethereal upper echelon said, "Your Excellency Kasuyi, you did well. You destroyed Radiance's plan and even made Black Star lose three of their Beyond Grade As. The upper echelons are very satisfied with your decision."
Kasuyi's expression did not change. "I only made a small contribution."
"Hehe, there's no need to be humble. Compared to Hella, stopping Radiance from obtaining the chip to unseal the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter is more important."
The upper echelon smiled. Thinking that they had tricked the Radiant Federation this time, they were in a good mood.
"However, the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter is still in Radiance's hands, so it's best to negotiate with Black Star or the dynasty and see if we can exchange the captives of Radiance for the Ten Thousand Deity Scepter."
Kasuyi nodded indifferently. "Although the operation did not succeed, we also offended the Black Star Corps. The chances of success are not high, but we can give it a try."
"Hmm … By the way, you said that Black Star displayed an ability similar to the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Teleportation in front of you and sent Hella back to the base while the space was sealed. Is that true?"
"Of course it's true. I won't be wrong."
Hearing this, this Ethereal upper echelon could not help but ponder. "If that's the case, we can only cancel all of our plans for Hella …"
Since Black Star had a teleportation technology that could ignore the space seal, there was no point in targeting Hella. The other party could escape at any time.
The King mechanical suit that Han Xiao displayed completely dispelled all of Ethereal's plans to target Hella. She was now considered safe.
Seeing the reaction of the upper echelons, Sagman and the other 'former inmates' looked at each other and saw the complicated emotions in each other's eyes. It was the helplessness of knowing that it would be difficult to take revenge, as well as the joy of escaping this disaster.
At this moment, another Ethereal upper echelon spoke. This was a member of the Bishops. "Let's not bother about Black Star's technology for now. Anyway, the headache is Radiance. I just want to ask, what do you think of Black Star's strength?"
The Beyond Grade As looked at each other before finally looking at Kasuyi.
Kasuyi pondered for a while before saying, "Black Star's battle record this time is very shocking. However, we're participants and know the inside story. Although Black Star's strength is not as terrifying as the outside world says, it's still strong enough. His strength is secondary. His fighting style, which has almost no shortcomings, is the most troublesome part. The Indestructible Body makes up for the biggest weakness of a Mechanic, and with the help of the Spacetime Amber, his actual combat ability is far beyond his level. It's difficult to judge … From this incident onwards, we have to look at Black Star from a new perspective. We have to divide him into two forms, normal and explosive. The latter is a level higher than the former.
Although Black Star burned his potential this time, if he can burn it once, he can burn it again. Among all the Beyond Grade As, there are not many who can guarantee that they can win against Black Star in his explosive state. Therefore, it's best not to force him to this point again. "
After hearing this, the Ethereal upper echelons looked at each other.
What he meant was that they should not provoke Black Star again.
…
On the other side, the Radiant Federation also held a similar meeting. The atmosphere was completely different from the relaxed atmosphere of the Arcane Church. It was very serious.
President Bader looked around and said seriously, "Three Beyond Grade As have fallen into the dynasty's hands. Can anyone tell me how things turned out like this? Can anyone give me an explanation? "
The remote projections of the many Beyond Grade As present were speechless. They could not help but look at the few empty seats.
Bader's current mood was as uncomfortable as if he had suddenly stepped on a dog while walking on the road.
Before the operation, he felt that this operation was in the bag. Even if they did not capture Hella, with the mobility of the six Beyond Grade As and the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Device, it would not be a problem for them to escape unscathed. However, he did not expect the losses to be so great.
This kind of result made him wonder which part of the process had gone wrong.
Bader turned to look at Sierron and said with a deep voice, "You're the leader of this operation. I originally had high hopes for you. Do you have anything to say now?"
Hearing the blame in the President's tone, Sierron's face turned green. He said angrily, "It's all Kasuyi's fault!"
Hearing this, the expressions of the Radiance upper echelons present were not good.
During the battle of Planet Lighthouse, the Radiance had hit Ethereal while it was down, and now, they were being hit back by Ethereal.
At this time, many people felt that the tables had turned. They finally understood how Xu Ling felt at that time.
This time, Manison calmly said, "The main reason for this is that Ethereal was involved.
However, the root of it was that Black Star had predicted this and purposely used a fake location to mislead the outside world. His main body was hidden nearby and caught Sierron and the others off guard. Plus, they were in the enemy camp and could not fight too long, so they were not able to use their full strength. That was why they were defeated one by one by Black Star. Don't underestimate a peak Beyond Grade A Mechanic. "
Bader narrowed his eyes and looked over. "I heard that you were also involved in this and went to fight Gorután."
"That's right." Manison nodded and did not deny it.
After taking a deep look at him, Balder didn't continue asking. He changed the topic and said coldly,
He changed the topic and said, "The most important thing now is to negotiate with the dynasty and redeem the three Beyond Grade A allies. Don't provoke Black Star again during this time."
Then, he went offline and prepared to take a few pills. He did not want to see these annoying allies for the rest of the day.
…
On the mother planet of the Red Empire, in the conference room of Tarunamir Palace …
"The matter is over. Everyone knows the details. Let's talk about what happened."
On the main seat, Uranril crossed her arms and rested her chin on them. She scanned the upper echelons present.
Everyone was silent for a while before one of the upper echelons spoke.
"Black Star resolved this matter beautifully, completely beyond our expectations.
Now that we have the Beyond Grade A captives in our hands as bargaining chips, we have the initiative to negotiate. Black Star has also shown his trump card of explosiveness, so our judgment of his strength has increased by another level. According to me, although this matter was not caused by us, we can give Black Star a certain amount of support as compensation for him burning his potential and show him how much we value him. "
"Hmm, that's right."
Uranril replied while glancing at Bekorodi from the corner of her eyes. However, she found that Bekorodi's eyes were slightly closed, as though he did not intend to speak.
Originally, Bekorodi thought that Black Star would have to rely on the dynasty's support to get through this difficulty, so he insisted that Hella join the dynasty. However, Black Star had basically solved the problem on his own, and the dynasty did not help at all. Thus, this proposal was a little untenable.
Furthermore, Han Xiao's battle results this time also surprised Bekorodi. The entire dynasty's upper echelons now viewed him with even more importance. Under such circumstances, Bekorodi did not have anything else to say and chose to remain silent.
Seeing that no one objected, Uranril continued. "Regarding compensating Black Star, I plan to implement a plan … temporarily open up the right to sell the Evolutionary Totems."
As soon as this was said, many of the upper echelons present widened their eyes in shock.
Only a few of them had expected this and had an 'as expected' expression.
Because of the issue with the Evolution Cube, the dynasty and Black Star were not on good terms, and a rift had formed.
After this incident, seeing Black Star's ability, the dynasty finally decided to take a step back and take the initiative to mend their relationship.
