Han Xiao only felt his mechanical suit vibrate slightly. When he opened it again, he was already back in the Black Star Corps fleet that was attacking the outer defense line of the Modo expeditionary army. He was in the command room of the main ship.
Hearing the noise, the officers who were watching the battle all turned around. They first looked at Han Xiao's face, then looked down at his hand on Ames' waist, and then at Ames' calm expression. The room became silent all of a sudden.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen this before?" Han Xiao glanced at everyone and retracted his hand.
"Boss, the target is taken care of?" Herlous coughed and winked.
"Of course. The Modo Civilization didn't even send Beyond Grade As. How could I have failed with just the expeditionary army?"
Herlous originally wanted to ask, "Then why did it take so long?", but looking at Ames' glowing face, he hesitated and did not ask.
Han Xiao ignored him and looked at the battlefield outside the window. It was in the white-hot stage, and the fleets on both sides were fighting fiercely. The army had already broken through the outer protective shields of two planetary bases and sent in a large number of army players. They were fighting the players of the enemy guild alliance on a large scale, and there was no clear winner.
This time, Ames turned around, patted Han Xiao's chest, and said, "Alright, the mastermind has been killed. I'll return to the Shattered Star Ring first."
"Hmm? You're leaving so soon? "Han Xiao was stunned." Didn't you say you were going to deal with the mastermind together? "
He had thought that Ames was going to stay there and participate in the battles against Modo to vent her anger. He did not expect her to leave now.
"I've already vented my anger by killing the initiator of the plan. Plus, having you here is enough." Ames smiled. She was in an extremely good mood.
Her original plan was to help Han Xiao while taking revenge. She had already helped a lot. Without her, Manison would have lost at least one Felon. Han Xiao had convinced her during this time, so Ames decided to listen to Han Xiao's suggestion and return to Floating Dragon Island.
Ding!
As soon as he said that, Han Xiao's interface reacted. [Rage of Ames] had turned into [Mission Completed].
'That's it? Luckily, she's not really going to destroy the entire Modo Civilization. She's probably not angry anymore, so she gave up on such an exaggerated idea. Looks like my persuasion during this time was effective …
Han Xiao thought to himself.
"I'll take Aesop back. I'll guard him strictly in the future. I won't let him run away easily." Ames played with the hair on her temples.
Han Xiao mourned for Aesop for a third of a second and then nodded decisively.
"Arrange him as you wish. Don't give me any face."
Ames stretched out her slender and white fingers and tapped Han Xiao's chest with a smile. "Then I'll go back first. Come and find me when you have time. In short, it's all thanks to your help this time. I won't say thank you again. There's no need to be so polite between us. You don't like to hear this anyway …"
"Alright, alright. Go back quickly." Han Xiao waved his hand nonchalantly.
"By the way, before I leave, I have a gift for you." Ames seemed to have suddenly thought of something. The spatial enchantment rune on the back of her hand flashed, and a book appeared in her hand.
"What's this?" Han Xiao looked down curiously.
"Some time ago, I summarized my energy training experience so far and created a new energy training method. It should be universal. You can practice it too," Ames said with a smile.
Han Xiao took the book and flipped through it. It was actually a handwritten version. The content recorded on it was an energy training method called 'Dragon Emperor Astral Power Absorption Technique'. The specific effects were not clear, but it seemed to be quite advanced. It did not lose to Ty-Ty's' Heber Stellar Furnace Training Method '.
"Why did you write it by hand? Wouldn't it be more convenient to write it on a smart device and send it to me?"
"This can train my patience." Ames' smile did not change.
Her idea was very simple. Only a handwritten version could be used as a gift. It could also be a memento for Black Star.
With such a surprise, Han Xiao did not reject it. He put away the handwritten book, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll find some time to practice it when I go back."
"Then, I'll be leaving."
Ames smiled and did not waste time. She asked Han Xiao to send her back in another King suit.
After she disappeared, Han Xiao opened the interface again and took a closer look at the reward.
The Mission Evaluation was Excellent, and his basic EXP had increased from 250,000,000 to 10,000,000. His Floating Dragon Faction Contribution Points had increased by tens of thousands. Ames' Favorability was full to begin with, so it could not increase. However, Aesop's Favorability increased by a large amount. The Random Rewards increased from two to four, and the number of Character Summon Cards doubled. He obtained two of them, both of which were Ames' Character Summon Cards.
The ability of the first Character Summon Card was called 'Force Field — Star Setter'. It could be used to grab the target using the Esper Ability of the Force Field. It could be considered a decent control ability, and it could be used up to five times. The other Character Summon Card's ability was called [Battle Whip – Dragon Arc]. It was also an application technique for the Force Field ability. It had both AOE damage and crowd control abilities. It also had five uses, and the effect was not bad.
In Han Xiaoxin's eyes, this ordinary mission was just a bonus, and he did not have high hopes for it. Now that he had obtained these rewards, it could be considered a small gain. The main event in his eyes had always been the Kunde Race mission.
Opening [Kunde Race Leader's Last Wish] in the mission list, Han Xiao glanced at it. The first requirement was still there, and the second requirement was the same. Because it was a Grade S mission, there was no specific progress shown. However, his intuition told him that his successful surprise attack had made great progress in the mission.
After calculating for a while, Han Xiao thought to himself, "That's right.
Based on the current situation, the second requirement of this mission will probably be completed when the Modo Civilization is completely tortured by me to the point that they give up on competing in the Flickering World.
He had always been envious of the three ability rewards in the second mission requirement. They were [The Enemy], [Proof of Leadership], and [Kunde's Wrath]. They were all excellent abilities, especially the semi-molding talent [Proof of Leadership] with growth potential.
With that in mind, Han Xiao summoned Philip in the quantum network vision and said, "Send the Spacetime Command to the spacetime battleship to the spacetime battleship.
"Send the recording of me using the Spacetime Splicing Technology to destroy the headquarters of the Modo expeditionary army to the Kunde Race garrison. Have them play it on a loop in all settlements. Try to let every mantis shrimp … cough, every Kunde Race member see it."
"Understood, hum …"
Han Xiao's battle with the Modo Expeditionary Army was very short, and Philip had recorded the entire process. He was never the type to do things on his own. Since he had helped the Kunde Race take revenge, he definitely had to use the recording to increase his reputation in the Kunde Race and let the entire race know about his kindness. This would also increase the mission completion rate.
After dealing with this matter, Han Xiao summoned Fu Ding, walked to the side, and asked softly, "Have you done what I asked you to do?"
"In the past month and a half, I've already converted the souls of 15,420 Modo soldiers and mid-level officers. These are our spies in the Modo Expeditionary Army." Fu Ding nodded.
He had received Han Xiao's secret order. When the Black Star Corps fleet attacked the Modo defense line, he used the Soul Swapper to convert some of the enemy soldiers, infiltrate the Modo Expeditionary Army, and plant spies.
The Modo Civilization had once used the Soul Swapper to deal with the army. Han Xiao told Fu Ding to give them a taste of their own medicine. With how strange the Soul Swapper was, even if Modo was prepared, they would not be able to avoid it.
"Not bad."
Han Xiao nodded with satisfaction. He had already planted many chess pieces in the Modo Expeditionary Army's territory. This way, he would have more internal intelligence sources. Not only would he be able to control the whereabouts of the Modo Civilization's army, but he would also be able to investigate the location of the secret transportation line. He could slowly torture the enemy.
"Pass down my order. Retreat temporarily. We'll return to the base and rest for a while."
Han Xiao said loudly. All the officers present were stunned.
We have the upper hand now. How can we retreat just like that? Even if we don't break into the defense line, we should at least finish this battle first.
They did not know that Han Xiao was not letting the Black Star Corps rest. Instead, he had just killed the Modo Expeditionary Army's commander. He knew that the enemy would definitely fall into chaos without a leader, so he purposely gave the enemy time to rest.
He did not want to give Modo a little bit of hope and then crush it again and again. That way, it would be easier for Modo to give up the competition in despair. Psychological warfare was the most important thing.
Although the officers were confused, no one would question the army commander's order.
Very soon, the army retracted all their battleships, left the heated battlefield, and retreated in an orderly manner.
Seeing this, the Modo garrisons on this line of defense were all confused.
Aren't we at a disadvantage? Why did they stop attacking us halfway?
"Strange. Hurry and tell the command center." The fleet commander of this defense line quickly reported to the upper echelons.
However, what awaited him was a long silence. No one picked up the call.
After a while, he received the bad news from the intranet and finally knew what had happened. The entire command center had been killed by Black Star, along with the base!
…
On the other side, on one of the Kunde Race's planets.
After twenty years of transformation, the new generation of the Kunde Race gradually adapted to their captive life and accepted the culture instilled by the Red Empire and the Black Star Corps. As batches of old mantis shrimps died of natural causes, the cultural transformation of the entire race gradually took effect.
Every planet was isolated and could not contact other planets. Basic productivity was restored. The streets were bustling, and the heavy atmosphere was much lighter. The younger generation injected new vitality into the Kunde Race.
On this day, something huge happened on this planet. Every screen in the world was playing a video of Han Xiao destroying the Modo expeditionary army's command center. Philip even kindly added a video to explain what had happened, trying to make the Kunde Race understand what Han Xiao had done for them.
Every Kunde Race member who saw the video understood that Black Star was still carrying out his promise to take revenge for their race. Furthermore, Black Star had even used their technology.
Seeing the mechanical soldiers destroying the command center with the Spacetime Splicing Technology, the shells of the Kunde Race members lit up with an excited orange light. They felt extremely proud.
Look, those people who schemed against us are no match for our Kunde Civilization's strongest technology!
This made them feel that they were not just watching Black Star uphold justice but helping him.
Along with the pride came a deep sense of gratitude toward Black Star.
For so many years, not only had he protected them, but he had also kept his promise to seek justice for their race. Such a good person was now the only guardian of their race, which was a blessing in disguise.
The same scene played out on every planet of the Kunde Race. Countless Kunde Race members respected Black Star even more.
