"What do you want to do?" Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
He had only met Martin once. A month ago, Martin had tried to recruit mercenaries in private. Martin had rejected his application because he was picky about his lack of combat experience. It could be considered a small conflict between them. If it weren't for the iconic blue-skinned dwarf, he would have forgotten about it.
Martin rubbed his hands awkwardly and said with a warm tone, "Erm … Are you interested in being hired? It's still the same mission as before. Our research team is going to explore a planet …"
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and said, "It's been a month, and you still haven't found anyone?"
Martin looked awkward and did not know what to say. During the private recruitment, only a few very weak mercenaries came to sign up, but they were all rejected by him. The pick-and-choose dragged on for longer and longer. Finally, he couldn't help but issue an official recruitment through the Mercenary Alliance, but because the pay was too low, no qualified mercenaries applied, so the operation had been in a state of stagnation.
A few days ago, the mercenaries who had participated in the Sunil mission had returned and mentioned the name of Black Star. A team with the ability to revive had attracted the interest of many mercenaries, and they had become famous in Juberly Hub.
Martin had found out by chance that he had rejected a strong team and missed the opportunity. He regretted it so much that he immediately ran over when he met Han Xiao again.
"Same price, 400 Enas per person. Let's move quickly." Martin's face was full of hope. Han Xiao had applied once before, and he felt that Han Xiao would not reject him.
"Find someone else." Han Xiao shook his head and turned to leave. The last time, he had wanted to earn some extra money because he was going the same way as Planet Sunil. Now that the opportunity had passed, he did not care about the pay at all, so why would he make the trip?
Martin grabbed Han Xiao's arm and hurriedly said, "Do you think the price is not right? You can add more money. How about 500 … 480? "
Han Xiao felt helpless as Martin grabbed his arm tightly. His application had been rejected by Martin, and now Martin had come looking for him. This miser even wanted to add more money. The difference in treatment was too obvious.
The trip to Planet Sunil had given the Black Star Mercenary quite a bit of fame, which was why such a scene had occurred. A galactic mercenary with a certain level of strength and the ability to revive would definitely receive a certain level of attention.
While the two of them were tugging at each other, a voice rang out beside them. "You're Black Star?"
Han Xiao turned around and saw the speaker walking over. He was wearing a pure white metal combat suit. The surface of the suit was smooth like enamel, but it was actually made of some kind of high-strength alloy.
"You're from Sky Ring?" Han Xiao's eyes narrowed. He grabbed Martin's collar and pulled him away.
This person was wearing the battle uniform of the Sky Ring Army. He was a mercenary from Sky Ring.
The Sky Ring Army was one of the largest mercenary armies in the Shattered Star Ring. They had more than ten thousand members, and their army commander was a Calamity Grade Super. Their business was spread all over Gelon, Colton, and several other Star Clusters.
Tian Huan had not interacted with him yet. Han Xiao was slightly curious and asked, "Why is Tian Huan looking for me?"
"You have a pretty good team. My team leader wants to discuss cooperation with you. Do you have time now?"
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes. Cooperation … sounds good. However, with Tian Huan's strength, there was no reason for them to be interested in his small team, unless there was something special about them that attracted Tian Huan. After thinking about it for a while, he guessed the reason.
"It can't be wrong. They're most likely interested in our undying trait …"
Han Xiao laughed in his mind. It was all thanks to the news spread by his peers.
He was very curious about what kind of cooperation Tian Huan was talking about. With such a large organization, their request would definitely not be simple.
"I have time. Let's go." Han Xiao left Martin behind and left with the Sky Ring mercenaries.
Martin sat on the ground, dumbfounded. Tian Huan was extremely famous in the mercenary industry. In just one month, the Black Star Mercenary that he had rejected was valued by Tian Huan and was invited to work with them. It was unbelievable.
Martin thought about how he had rejected Black Star because of his pickiness and could not help but feel even more regretful.
"I was the one who came first …"
…
Han Xiao walked into the stronghold of the Tian Huan mercenaries and saw twenty to thirty Tian Huan mercenaries of different races. They were either sitting or standing. When they saw him enter, they all looked at him.
"I'm Gashley, the leader of this team." A golden-eyed, purple-skinned mercenary walked out from the crowd. He was tall and muscular, and he was two meters tall. He was from a race from the Gelock Star Cluster.
Gashley's combat uniform was slightly different from the other members. A golden ring surrounded the triangular crystal on the chest of the combat uniform. This ring was the symbol of rank within the Tian Huan Army. Although there was a lot of freedom in such a large mercenary organization, there were still differences in status. The more rings one had, the higher one's status, and the status was determined by one's strength.
Team leaders had one ring, and the highest rank was the commander of the Tian Huan Army. He had one more ring than a team leader.
"Black Star, Han Xiao."
After the simple introductions, Han Xiao went straight to the point and asked, "You want to work with me. What's the situation?"
"Tian Huan is dedicated to recruiting excellent warriors," Gashley said slowly. "You have a very strong team. We would like to invite you and your Black Star Mercenary to join Tian Huan."
The way to strengthen a mercenary organization was to recruit other mercenaries. The Tian Huan Army was an organization with a relatively free structure. All members had the right to recommend other mercenaries. If they successfully recruited strong people, the person who recommended them would be rewarded by the organization. Therefore, the Tian Huan mercenaries paid close attention to strong newcomers in the industry.
Gashley's team happened to be stationed at Juberly Hub, and they heard the rumors of the battle on Planet Sunil. The name 'Undying Black Star Mercenary' entered their sights. After confirming that it was not a rumor, Gashley immediately decided to invite Han Xiao, wanting to recruit the entire Black Star Mercenary into Tian Huan.
He was mainly interested in the 'revival' feature. Otherwise, Black Star would not have the right to be treated differently by Tian Huan with just his average strength. Gashley would not even look at Han Xiao. Tian Huan had tens of thousands of mercenaries, and their average strength was at Grade A. There were dozens of Grade B officers, and there were even two Calamity Grade Supers that the civilizations were wary of.
Tian Huan's sudden invitation surprised Han Xiao. He thought about it carefully and felt that it was reasonable. Mercenaries who could revive were the best vanguard and cannon fodder. Even a large organization like Tian Huan would not ignore them.
He calculated the gains and losses in his heart. If he joined Tian Huan, he would be able to enjoy the privileges and relationships that Tian Huan had built up over the years. He would also be able to obtain new promotion paths and rich exchange items …
However, if the Black Star Mercenary joined Tian Huan, he would become someone else's vassal, and his faction would be destroyed. The long-term losses would be too great. He could not give up his faction for some small benefits.
"Your suggestion is very attractive, but I don't really want to join other organizations." Han Xiao rejected it tactfully.
The surrounding Tian Huan mercenaries were shocked and whispered to each other.
"He actually rejected it."
"It's all benefits, why wouldn't I accept it? I didn't even hesitate when I was invited."
Gashley was surprised. He thought that Han Xiao did not understand the benefits, so he patiently explained, "You might not know the benefits of joining Tian Huan. First, Tian Huan has a lot of freedom in the management of its members. You can choose to be a solo mercenary or join a team, as long as you complete at least two missions every year. Second, Tian Huan members enjoy a lot of privileges …"
"Sorry." Han Xiao interrupted him, shook his head, and said, "Tian Huan is indeed not bad, but I believe that the benefits are equal to the risks. Acting independently is more suitable for me, but thank you for your invitation."
