You have completed [Void Conqueror] Mission!
Milestone Successfully Activated!
Looking at the last Void Duke being smashed into a pancake by the Mechanical Deity, Han Xiao finally heard the pleasant notification on the interface.
In the past ten days, he had brought Ames to look for other Void Dukes to cooperate with, and they had been active in the various borderlands of the Void Dimension.
Because not everyone had the intention of hiring outsiders, the two of them had been delayed for some time. However, overall, the efficiency of completing the mission was not bad. As long as they had the intention to cooperate, with Han Xiao's strength, he could easily wipe out the enemy Void Dukes.
"It's finally done."
On the battlefield, Han Xiao's spirits were lifted. He deactivated the Mechanical Deity and opened the interface to check the mission reward.
The bonus from the [Void Conqueror] milestone had taken effect. His various Void talents had been slightly strengthened, and it provided him with 1600 Free Attribute Points, 1 God's Trait Transformation Point, and + 20 Void Creatures' Natural Favorability. At the same time, it also gave him a Legendary Point, [Void Celebrity]. The introduction said that the name 'Black Star' was circulating among the Void Creatures.
He continued to save up his Free Attribute Points, and he currently had close to 4,000 points. As for the God's Trait Transformation Point, Han Xiao continued to maintain the mindset of maxing out one path and threw it into his main class path. [God's Trait Transformation Machinery] unlocked the fourth level effect.
Fourth Stage: + 3 Mechanic Skill Levels for [Apostle Mechanic] and [Emperor Mechanic] Levels. + 25% Basic Success Rate for Blueprint Research. + 15% Basic Success Rate for Blueprint Improvement. + 3% Basic Success Rate for Gold Blueprint Research. + 1.5% Unique Talent Formation Chance. + 15% Secondary Branch Ability Enhancement.
"Not bad." Han Xiao glanced at it.
The class skills of the Apostle and Emperor stages were very important, and it would be very useful to strengthen them. According to this trend, Han Xiao estimated that the next stage would be to strengthen the skills of the Lord and Divine Throne stages, which would be even more important.
Generally speaking, this level's bonus was mainly focused on enhancing research and development. After all, Han Xiao was not a player with a channeling bar. At his level, it was very common to derive new blueprints on the basis of class knowledge. It was the same for improving blueprints to improve the basic quality of blueprints. The blueprints that he was currently using were all self-improved and enhanced versions. They were all good stuff.
What Han Xiao was more concerned about was the Exclusive Skill. It seemed that old fogeys like Manison and Sorokin all had their own Exclusive Skills. Since players didn't have this ability in his previous life, Han Xiao had no idea how to obtain it. Moreover, there were no such notifications on the interface, so he could only slowly figure it out.
As for the secondary branch strengthening, it improved Han Xiao's Armed Forces and Energy Skills. Basically, all Machinery Skills other than Virtual Technology were included.
Han Xiao was looking at the interface when the Void Overlord he was working with this time finished devouring the opponent's core and came to his side.
"Black Star, a Void Monarch under Lord Kasuyi wishes to see you."
"He's finally here. I knew he wouldn't ignore my actions."
Han Xiao had expected this and wasn't surprised. He met the other party under the Void Overlord's arrangement.
The Void Monarch's body seemed to reach the heavens and the earth, and the color of his body was darker than the Void Overlord's.
At this moment, when he saw Han Xiao, he couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity. For some reason, he felt that Han Xiao was very pleasing to the eye.
This Void Monarch's first impression of Han Xiao was very good, but this didn't affect his attitude of working for Kasuyi.
He directly asked, "Black Star, we've noticed that you've been frequently fighting in the Void Dimension recently. Are you thinking of subduing the Void Overlord and supporting your faction here?"
"Don't worry. Tell Kasuyi that I'm only signing a contract with some mercenaries and have no intention of establishing a faction. In fact, I've almost achieved my goal. I'm preparing to leave the Void Dimension in two days."
Han Xiao knew what the other party was worried about and expressed that he wasn't here to snatch territory from Kasuyi.
"That's for the best. As long as you don't interfere too much with the matters of the Void Dimension, we welcome you as a guest. If you have any needs, you can find us."
The Void Monarch's attitude was still considered polite. As Kasuyi's subordinate, he wasn't ignorant of the powerhouses of the main universe and knew that Black Star was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
"Okay, we might have a chance to do business in the future," Han Xiao said casually.
Kasuyi's territory had a stable industrial chain that produced all kinds of void specialties. It was a good business. If he had any needs, he could cooperate with the other party.
At this moment, the Void Monarch took out a tube of medicine filled with a sparkling blue solution that emitted a faint light. "This is a gift from Lord Kasuyi. It's liquid void essence made from dimensional origin energy. It can help purify the void bloodline."
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and took the medicine without hesitation. He smiled and said, "Thank Kasuyi for me."
As the saying goes, one should have a soft tongue after eating someone's food. Kasuyi's subtext was to tell Han Xiao not to stay in his house any longer after taking the gift. Han Xiao didn't intend to dig up his vegetable field anyway, so he naturally had no objections.
The negotiation between the two sides went smoothly, and the Void Monarch left in satisfaction. Han Xiao also put away the medicine. It could probably increase his attributes to a certain extent during the next species sublimation.
"You're finally done?" At this moment, Ames chuckled.
These days, he had been busy with missions and hadn't fulfilled his promise to travel. Han Xiao couldn't help but feel that he owed Ames. Now that he had finished his business, he was in a relaxed mood. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go.
I'll accompany you to have fun in the secondary dimensions. "
…
While the two of them were traveling in the secondary dimensions, the situation in the main universe was constantly changing.
Although the plan of the Flickering World Beyond Grade A Development Union had not been made public to the outside world, the abnormal actions of many pinnacle Beyond Grade A organizations had made many well-informed organizations smell something unusual.
After the leaders were gathered, everyone gathered together and held their first meeting.
In the round table conference room of a spaceship, the remote projections of many leaders were gathered, sitting in their own seats. They were basically all pinnacle Beyond Grade As.
At the large round table, there was only one empty seat. It was Han Xiao, who didn't attend the meeting.
Manison clapped his hands and gestured for everyone to look at him.
"Black Star has gone to the secondary dimensions, so it's not convenient to contact him. We're the only ones in the meeting today."
"He's the main leader. The development union needs the Black Star Corps to act as a bridge. Is it appropriate not to call him for such an important meeting?" Secret Master questioned.
Everyone expressed their agreement.
Han Xiao now had a lot of weight in the circle of Beyond Grade As. Although he wasn't there, no one would treat him as air. Coupled with the importance of the Black Star Corps to the establishment of the Beyond Grade A Association, many pinnacle Beyond Grade As present tacitly acknowledged his right to speak. Even if he wasn't there, they would take the initiative to think for him.
"Black Star himself said that he wasn't coming." Manison waved his hand. He wouldn't lie about this. "He has already expressed his stance. Everything will be based on the consensus of the Meeting of the Gods. Let's discuss and come to a conclusion. We'll just inform him when the time comes."
"Okay." Everyone nodded.
"Then, let's get to the main topic." Manison slowly said, "Since we're going to establish the development union, we must first formulate the rules, standardize the functions of the association, clarify the nature of the organization, establish the development ideas, and formulate the rules for the members."
"That's right. Our original intention was to unite all the Beyond Grade As, be it present or future. However, the structure of the Ancient Ones is too loose, and the threshold to join is too high. This development union can't repeat the same mistake. We must have clear rules and regulations."
A pinnacle Beyond Grade A said, "The plan that Black Star came up with shows that the main function of the development union is to peacefully mediate the disputes between the Beyond Grade As. This idea is feasible, and it's best to start from this aspect first. For example, the members can't easily provoke armed conflicts other than sparring to maintain the unity of the Beyond Grade As. Also, the members can't deliberately aggravate conflicts, avoid peaceful negotiations, and ensure that the members obey the results of the mediation. Set punishments to prevent anyone from going back on their words and damaging the authority of the organization … "
Everyone discussed and soon perfected the various rules and regulations.
At this time, Sorokin, who was the big investor, suddenly said, "Although the rules are good, the biggest problem is to ensure that the Beyond Grade As are willing to follow the rules of the organization. Everyone knows that the Beyond Grade As are all unruly and enjoy special privileges. It's not easy to restrain them."
"That's right, this is the core problem." Manison continued. "Not only do we have to make the members accept the restrictions of the rules, but we also have to make sure that outsiders still choose to join the development union after seeing these rules. The consensus of the Meeting of the Gods is one thing, but not everyone will buy it. In order to prevent others from ignoring us, it's nothing more than using both deterrence and temptation together. Not only will the other Beyond Grade As see the price of breaking the rules, but they will also see the benefits of joining the development union.
"Deterrence is very simple. We elders don't have to do anything. It's a form of deterrence in itself. "Temptation needs to be carried out in many ways. We have to build a network of interests for the Beyond Grade A organizations, integrate and share our resources, and provide financial, social, political, and other support for the other organizations." As for the future newcomers, we have to use our own resources to help them build a Beyond Grade A organization, as well as provide some pinnacle Beyond Grade A experience and guidance …
"We can even use the Ultimate Knowledges of the five systems as benefits."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"Ultimate Knowledges? This is stealing the business that the three Universal Civilizations rely on to recruit Beyond Grade A allies. They will definitely strongly oppose it. This is not a joke. "
Manison slowly said, "What was our original intention? Have you forgotten so quickly? If we can't break the monopoly of the three Universal Civilizations on the Ultimate Knowledges, even if the Beyond Grade A association is successfully established, it will still be controlled by the advanced civilizations and have no choice but to work for them. "
Some people nodded in agreement, but more people remained silent. They felt that this step was too big, and the risk was too high. Their opinions differed.
"If you insist on doing this, then the three Universal Civilizations will have to negotiate with us." Kasuyi was helpless.
"Therefore …" Manison looked around and revealed his true intentions. "We need a leader. He must withstand the pressure and never compromise. Only I can take on this responsibility."
Everyone glanced at him.
Someone on the side started bragging. "Manison is strong, has a wide network, has a large organization, and is experienced. He's indeed the most suitable candidate."
Many of the people present were friends that Manison had pulled in, and some of them had planned to support him.
This time, another pinnacle Beyond Grade A candidate could not help but say, "Who doesn't know what you're thinking? We're all leaders of the development union. I think I'm more suitable than you. "
They were all Beyond Grade As, so it was impossible for them to have the final say. Even if they became the president, they would only have more authority and would not be able to command people of the same level. Most of the important decisions still had to be made by the many Elders. However, due to the special nature of the Beyond Grade A association, this kind of opportunity to decide everyone's position was very rare.
This time, Milizaus slowly said, "Although Black Star isn't here, he still wants to participate.
The Black Star Corps' influence in the Flickering World is unquestionable. With him as the president, our organization will be worthy of its name. Furthermore, the Evolutionary Totems will be sold publicly. At that time, Black Star will have a lot more face with the three Universal Civilizations. He'll be suitable to act as a lubricant for both sides, which will greatly reduce the pressure on the association … I support Black Star to be the leader. "
Han Xiao did not attend the meeting personally, not because he wanted to leave the work to others but because he did not want to face the other competitors, including Manison. Since he could not compete with them in terms of connections, he might as well show them the benefits he could bring and let them make their own decisions. This way, he could avoid a direct confrontation with the other pinnacle Beyond Grade As, especially since he did not want to provoke Director Mai.
"Black Star is indeed very useful, but he's too inexperienced. I don't want a young guy riding on my head." Sierron snorted.
Everyone supported different candidates and started arguing with each other. There were actually quite a few people who supported Han Xiao, who was not present.
After a while, someone said, "I think the management of the organization should be balanced.
The position of the president can't be fixed for life. There has to be a change every once in a while. "
This statement was widely agreed by everyone. They just did not want to be the first to stand out. When the association stabilized, the benefits of being the president would naturally outweigh the disadvantages. From the perspective of balance, no one wanted one person to be the president forever.
At this time, Manison looked at Kasuyi, who did not express his opinion, narrowed his eyes, and said with a deep voice,
"If you support me this time, I'll fully support you to be the leader next time."
Hearing this, Kasuyi did not know why, but he suddenly felt a chill.
Why do I suddenly feel like I have to activate my psychic shield at any time in the future?
