The Godora guards finally arrived. They hovered beside Short Horn Star and sent out a communication request. The shield was gone, and they could receive the signal.
The mission notification was completed, and a new notification appeared. Go to the captain to receive your reward.
Han Xiao came to the main control room, and all the players followed him. The captain was talking to the guards, explaining the situation. The captain knew that the scavengers were all taken care of, so he asked about the details.
The scavenger attack was only a small security problem. Since the tour group was safe, they only needed to record what happened and record it in the duty log.
Although he had met his compatriots, Kerlodd was very obedient. He stood beside Han Xiao and played with his braids.
The call ended, and the guards left. The captain turned on the radio again and announced to the whole ship, "The crisis has been resolved. Sorry for the shock. Short Horn Star will go directly to Juberly Hub for repair."
Everywhere in the spaceship, the passengers who survived cheered and hugged each other. They were very touched.
After turning off the radio, the captain finally had time to thank Han Xiao and the others. He said with gratitude, "Thank you very much for your help. I still don't know your name."
"Han Xiao."
The captain repeated it a few times and confirmed that he had never heard of this name before. He was not a famous mercenary or warrior.
"I will fulfill my promise. You will all get a reward."
Lerden coughed.
The captain hesitated and said, "Green Knight, your reward will not be small either." Although Lerden ran away halfway, he still fought.
Lerden nodded.
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows. The name 'Green Knight' triggered some of his memories. Like a flash of lightning, he frowned and thought for a while. Then, he began to recall some information.
Generally speaking, the details that he remembered were valuable.
"Green Knight … Sunil Race?" Han Xiao mumbled.
This race … seemed to have a storyline.
The reward from the captain was a transfer. All the players who had accepted the mission had a share of it. After they registered their own accounts, the captain transferred all the money to them. Everyone received 1,500 Enas, which was equivalent to half of Kerlodd's annual salary. It was very generous. Hao Tian and the others were not online at the beginning, so they did not accept the quest. At this moment, they were extremely envious, and their resentment was about to condense into clouds.
Although the Short Horn Star Travel Group was of a lower class, it was still a financial group. They had managed to secure the Short Horn Star, which was a priceless travel ship.
The extra 8,000 Enas given by the captain was a personal request that belonged exclusively to Han Xiao.
Han Xiao's account balance had increased to 10,000 +, which was more than ten times his original amount. His heart was filled with joy. This was the first bucket of gold he had earned in the interstellar space, and the amount was not bad at all. He had more than enough starting capital. The players all received their money, and Han Xiao was also very happy. These players had received the universal currency, which meant that he would have more money to spend. He would find an opportunity to sell their items and pay with Enas, and he would be able to earn another sum of money.
If he was the only one who accepted the mission, he would only receive a fixed amount of money. The players' participation would indirectly increase his profit by dozens of times. The money in the players' pockets was equivalent to Han Xiao's little treasury.
The regional reputation system was a new function that appeared after the players entered the interstellar space. The universe was huge, and the players were active in different regions, doing missions and deeds to accumulate their regional reputation. The regional reputation system was linked to the initial relationship between the organizations in the region. If one's reputation reached a certain level, they would receive Legendary Points. This was a specific way to obtain Legendary Points.
The bigger the region, the harder it was to accumulate reputation. Han Xiao had left a good impression on the financial group behind him by protecting the Short Horn Star. This was a small deed that could be written into his resume.
Regional reputation was a good thing. When dealing with organizations, accepting missions, and so on, there was a reputation requirement. The higher the reputation, the higher the level of contact, and the better the rewards.
The reputation system was a key function. In Han Xiao's previous life, many players were willing to do anything to increase their reputation.
In the past, Han Xiao's business also included quickly gaining popularity. As the saying went, destruction was easier than construction. Good things never left the house, but bad things spread far and wide. Usually, after he gained popularity, his employer's account would be wanted by more than half of the organizations in the area. No way.
After settling the payment, Lerden turned around and left. Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward to stop Lerden.
"What's the matter?" Lerden stopped. He had a deep impression of Han Xiao and was a little surprised that he stopped him.
Han Xiao's eyes turned, and he coughed. "I caught the leader of the Boneless Birds, called Serpent Braid. I'm going to exchange him for the bounty, but I just checked. I have to go to a galaxy far away, and I don't want to go that far. How about I sell this hostage to you?"
Lerden was stunned. He thought about it and said, "Okay, no problem."
"Serpent Braid's bounty is 3,500 Enas. Transfer the money to me."
Lerden frowned. "You don't want the full payment, do you? That's impossible. I have to go very far to get the bounty, and there's a cost. I can't earn anything, so why would I exchange?"
"How much do you want to pay?"
“1500。”
Why don't you just rob a bank? Han Xiao smelled a trace of the same industry. His eyes turned serious, and he slowly said, "3,000."
“1800。”
"At least 2,900."
“2000！”
The two of them haggled for a long time. Lerden was very stubborn when it came to money, and he would not let go of even a small profit. He was obviously a cold person, but now, he was arguing so hard for a two-digit amount of Enas.
After arguing for a long time, they finally settled on the price. Lerden paid 2,501 Enas for Serpent Braid. This extra point could be considered Han Technician's victory …
After negotiating a business deal, Han Xiao felt that he had gotten to know Lerden. His eyes flashed, and he said, "Do you know the reason for this attack?"
Lerden shook his head and said, "You look like you know the inside story."
Han Xiao smiled, stared at Lerden's expression, and slowly said, "These scavengers were hired by Dark-star to capture that Godora guy. How unlucky, don't you think?"
When he heard the words' Dark-star ', Lerden's pupils constricted, and his eyes subconsciously changed. A deep hatred and anger flashed through his eyes, as if he had thought of something bad.
"Oh, I know." Lerden finally took a deep breath, calmed down, and said goodbye with an expressionless face.
Han Xiao smiled, pointed at Lerden's body, and said, "I'm a mechanic. If you don't mind, I can do a simple repair for you."
Lerden stopped in his tracks. "For free?"
"Hehe, our relationship is not at that level yet. I only need a service fee. I think five Enas is not bad."
"Then never mind … Nice to meet you. Goodbye."
Lerden turned around and left.
Han Xiao was speechless. "Tsk tsk, not even giving me five dollars. So stingy."
Kerlodd came to the side, shook his head, and sighed. "Sigh, Sunil, it's understandable for them to be so 'greedy'."
"I know." Han Xiao nodded and thought to himself.
He had purposely talked to Lerden not only to sell the bounty criminals, but also to get to know Lerden. Ever since he remembered who Lerden was, Han Xiao had a new idea.
Sunil, this race existed in the Garton Star System, and there was a very good solo storyline. Originally, he would only be able to come into contact with it in the later versions, but after testing Lerden, he could confirm that this storyline existed at this point in time.
He clearly remembered that there was a chance to obtain a very rare subclass in the Sunil storyline. He was currently stuck at the requirements for class advancement, and he needed a subclass. This was a very important part.
Furthermore, this storyline had a protagonist-type character, and Han Xiao was very interested in protagonist-type characters. This was related to another blueprint that he was about to implement.
One of the goals of entering the galaxy was to seek growth. With these two reasons, plus the coincidental meeting today, Han Xiao suddenly had the idea of participating in the Sunil storyline. It would be very beneficial for him, and it would be somewhat related to the main storyline.
The Sunil race was a small civilization in the Garton Star System. They used to live a prosperous life and were an ally of the Godora civilization. However, one day, Dark-star invaded and destroyed the Sunil race's homeland. The surviving Sunil people migrated and were protected by Godora. They were given a piece of land on a certain planet and barely survived. The fire of their civilization was still burning. Therefore, when Dark-star was mentioned, Lerden could not help but be angry.
