"Thank you, Your Excellency Black Star, for your help. We will definitely report to the upper echelons about your help today."
In the cabin, Han Xiao had just gotten his subordinates to deal with the bodies of the Soul Swap Twins when he received a call from the Planet Earth Ring's Chief.
"It's not a big deal." Han Xiao waved his hand, not minding it at all.
"No, no, no. Thanks to your help, the evil deeds of the Mecha Empire were stopped. On behalf of the Razer Civilization, I thank you for your help. Please stay as a guest!"
The Planet Earth Ring's Chief's tone was warm.
After witnessing the earth-shattering battle just now, Han Xiao's image in his heart was extremely high. He did not dare show any disrespect. At the same time, he also hoped to use this opportunity to build a relationship with a big shot like Black Star. His attitude was respectful and warm.
Furthermore, if the Mecha Empire came to find trouble with him, it would affect his political achievements. Black Star had helped him a lot by beating them away. This was a favor. Black Star's position was high, so he could ignore it, but he could not accept it with a clear conscience.
"No need. I'll leave after cleaning up the battlefield." Han Xiao shook his head.
"Alright, then the next time you come to Planet Earth Ring, please inform me in advance. I'll definitely treat you well." The Planet Earth Ring's Chief was very grateful.
"There will be a chance."
Han Xiao casually chatted with him for a while before hanging up. He told Philip to save the other party's number in his contact book, which stored the communicator numbers of everyone he knew so far, forming a huge network.
Not only big shots, but he also saved the numbers of many small shots in different industries. Everyone had their own field, so they might be able to help him at any time.
Although the quantum network of the planet was temporarily blocked, what happened here was witnessed by all the people on the planet. Who knew how many devices had recorded the video. As long as it was spread out, it would definitely raise his prestige to another level.
After the Intelligent Plague incident, the three Universal Civilizations had been promoting the fact that he tied with the Mecha Empire. However, because there was some exaggeration, the effect was not perfect.
This time, the video of him destroying the Mechanic Emperor's doppelgänger was solid evidence!
Increasing his reputation was secondary. The most important thing was that if the Mecha Empire lost this time, they would lose a large number of believers of the Machinery Faith!
It did not matter if he lost a few times because he was a rising star. However, Manison, who was known as the 'number one Mechanic', lost. The meaning was different. It was a huge blow to his reputation. The higher he stood, the more painful it would be to fall.
There was no such thing as a die-hard fan among the believers of the Machinery Faith. They were all fence-sitters who would believe whoever was stronger.
If Manison lost the title of 'strongest', a lot of faith would flow to his name. As a result, Manison would become weaker, and he would become stronger with the nutrients. It was a drastic measure!
Speaking of removing the firewood from under the cauldron, Han Xiao remembered that Manison's Challenge Mission had yet to be completed.
The mission format was the normal Beyond Grade A Challenge Mode. As long as he lasted for a certain period of time, he would be able to obtain a Character Summon Card and an ability draw reward.
Since everyone was present, they could finally perform the complete "Coiling Dragon Touching Ding Kneading Nisoha" process.
Han Xiao touched them one by one. Only Harrison, who had never seen the world, was trembling. The other three were used to it. Only then did he open the interface and complete the mission under Hella's strange gaze.
(Beyond Grade A Challenge Mission — 'Mecha Empire' Manison] completed!
You have completed all the mission requirements. You have received 1,080 billion experience points.
You have received [Character Summon Card – "Mecha Empire" Manison]
"Another Ancient?" Han Xiao's eyes widened.
If he remembered correctly, this was the third time he had obtained this ability from old Manison. It was clearly an advanced ability with good effects, but why was its drop rate so high?
Or is it that even the heavens want me to be an elder with rich life experience?
The corner of Han Xiao's mouth twitched as he looked at the information extraction section. This was the most important part.
Randomizing … Randomizing complete!
Please select one from the following five options as your reward.
1. [Apostle Life Creation] – Ability: Lord Mechanic's exclusive ability. You can transform a mechanical target into an 'Apostle Weapon', giving it a huge boost in combat power, transforming it into a boss-level unit. You have three basic slots, and you can increase the slots by one every level. (You already have this ability, so it can be strengthened.)
2. [Multi-Dimensional Mind Model] – Talent: Transform the calculation method of the mind, increase the data processing speed of the brain, + 1,000 INT, and slightly increase casting speed, Virtual Technology, and other abilities.
3. [Mechanical Race Battle Technique-Guerrilla Warfare] – Ability: One of the battle modes of the mechanical army passed down by the Mechanical Race. It mainly focuses on long-range guerrilla warfare with high mobility. It includes 744 responses to different situations. When activating this ability, when the mechanical army uses guerrilla warfare tactics, it will receive a 15% mobility bonus and an 8.8% long-range damage bonus, while its Defense will be decreased by 5%.
4. [Blueprint — Virtual Mutiny Virus (Incomplete)] – Ability: A replica created by Manison according to the characteristics of the Virtual Mutiny Virus. It has not been successfully researched, and its functions are incomplete. It is extremely imperfect and cannot be used.
5. [Virtual Technology Innovation- Manison] – Talent: You have improved Virtual Technology and discovered a new application direction. You will receive an additional 1.75 x Virtual Technology Ability bonus. After Virtual Technology Innovation- Manison, it will have a special effect.
"Oh, another Unique Talent!"
Han Xiao was overjoyed.
When he first saw the Mecha Empire, he had seen this Unique Talent on the interface. [Virtual Technology Innovation- Manison]'s bonus was quite impressive, and it seemed to be an important foundation for mastering the Indestructible Mechanical Troops technology. Manison had used this ability to modify artificial intelligences.
If he obtained this ability, he might really be able to make some progress on the Indestructible Mechanical Troops technology.
He looked at the other four abilities, and none of them were that good. After all, he was not as lucky as last time.
Perhaps there were too many lucky people present today, and Lady Luck could not sleep all by herself this time. It seemed that although luck was good, he could not be too greedy.
However, he had obtained another Unique Talent, so it was not a loss.
[Apostle Life Creation] went without saying; he had it too. [Multi-Dimensional Thought Model] was a very average talent. The bonus of 1,000 INT was very strong at the lower levels, but it was ordinary at his current level.
[Mechanical Race Combat Technique-Guerrilla Warfare] was a tactical ability of the Mech Army. The mechanical army did not just rely on their combat intelligence to adapt to the situation; they had different combat modes. Just like formations, they had different styles and bonuses. The enhancement was usually not high, but the base was huge.
[Blueprint — Virtual Mutiny Virus (Incomplete)] was even more useless. This was a replica that Manison had not finished researching, and he had the original Domino Virus technology in his hands. The biggest use of this option was to reveal Manison's research progress.
"Another Unique Talent … If this continues, I will really become the second Manison in the future."
Han Xiao clicked his tongue.
After feeling his new ability, he turned off the interface and glanced outside the window.
At this time, his own troops were still cleaning up the battlefield, collecting large batches of Manison's mechanical soldiers. In terms of Enas, this was a huge amount of wealth, a windfall from the sky.
At this time, he received a signal from the quantum network. Risda was contacting him.
His mind sank into the Virtual Domain, and he saw Risda leading a large group of artificial intelligences to him.
"Black Star, I have already talked to my compatriots and explained the situation. They are all willing to believe you. In order to not be captured by the Mecha Empire, they are willing to follow you temporarily and hope that you can take care of them," Risda said happily.
"Your compatriots have made a clear choice." Han Xiao had a satisfied look on his face.
At this time, an artificial intelligence that seemed to be the representative walked out and said, "Lord Black Star, we all want to return to our original appearance as soon as possible and no longer be restrained. Therefore, everyone has decided to cooperate with you fully and help you deduce the modification technology that the Mecha Empire used on us. We only hope that it will be of help to you."
"Very good!" Han Xiao smiled.
The cooperation of these artificial intelligences was indispensable to deduce the technology of the Indestructible Mechanical Troops. Now that these people were willing to cooperate, it could not be better.
"Also, we are willing to reveal everything we know about the Mecha Empire. If you have anything you want to know, we will definitely answer."
"This will be a great help." Han Xiao nodded.
The Indestructible Mechanical Troops had been used by Manison for many years, so they definitely knew a lot of valuable secrets and could provide him with a lot of help.
The reason these artificial intelligences were so cooperative was probably because they knew that he was the only one they could rely on at the moment. They still needed his strength to save their compatriots. Many artificial intelligences were still in Manison's hands, especially the ancestor of the AI civilization, Finette.
Beep beep!
At this time, a notification popped up on the interface. A new round of the [Reboot] mission had appeared, which was also the final round.
Han Xiao glanced at it, and his eyes sparkled.
The requirement for the final round is to completely liberate the AI civilization … Wow, the reward is not bad!
The reward for the final round was a milestone talent called [Friend of Artificial Intelligences]. Its effect was an enhanced version of [Artificial Intelligences], and the increase was even greater.
Han Xiao also saw the hidden reward inside. If he could save the entire AI civilization, they would be able to become his strong ally in the virtual world.
On the other hand, completing the [Reboot] mission series was also a good opportunity to weaken Manison's strength.
However, Manison had learned his lesson this time. Before he figured out what he was capable of, there was no way he would use these two trump cards in front of Han Xiao.
If he wanted to save the other artificial intelligences, he would have to break into the Mecha Empire's nest and destroy the mainframe of the Indestructible Mechanical Troops technology.
Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Han Xiao smiled.
"Take care of your compatriots. When we return to my territory, I'll arrange a planet for you to live on."
"Thank you, Black Star."
Risda nodded solemnly.
Exiting the quantum network, Han Xiao exhaled, and the joy of a bountiful harvest echoed in his heart.
What a bountiful harvest this time!
At this moment, a fragrant wind blew over, and Ames came up to him and asked softly, "What's the matter?
"What do you plan to do next?"
"Now that we have the item and the culprit is dead, the next step is naturally to deal with the mastermind."
"Then, when do we do it?" Ames could not wait. "You said you'd bring me along this time."
"Hmm, there's no rush. Let me think about it." Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
Since he knew that the Modo Civilization was the mastermind, there was no reason for him to let this go.
Now that he had the reason, it was time to give the Modo Civilization a good beating!
