The Noriose financial group did not want to provoke either party, but they would not completely accommodate either party's demands. This move might cause them to have a conflict with Godora, but it would not be that serious. This was a matter of degree, and a small conflict was within the acceptable range. They were very flexible in handling matters.
The financial group was also prepared to ask Godora for compensation. The first reason was that an important member of Dark-star had died, and Godora had taken advantage of it. It would be easier for them to compromise on other issues. The most important reason was that Dark-star would not compensate, and Godora was a lawful civilization and a lawful regime. They could be understood as' good people 'in a broad sense, and good people would abide by the rules.
Nagojin still wanted to persuade them, but Han Xiao reached out to stop him, and he stopped talking.
Han Xiao could already see that the financial group would not give in on this point, so he could only give up on the plan to attack Ashes. He felt that it was a pity that his previous disguise had lost its effect. However, the situation was constantly changing, and he was already used to this feeling. Not many things could develop according to the most ideal situation.
Since the fight is not going to happen, this mission is more or less over. I won't be chased anymore, Han Xiao thought to himself.
Looking up at the sky, a black cloud stopped in the sky, revealing Ashes' figure. He had finally rushed back.
Ashes looked down at the devastated battlefield through the protective shield, and his face was filled with shock. Suddenly, he noticed Anur's corpse, and he could not move his eyes away. The shock on his face turned into horror!
"Perhaps luring Ember back isn't completely useless. Letting him see Anur's corpse with his own eyes will shock him and leave a psychological shadow in his heart."
…
A few minutes ago.
Ashes remembered 'Anur's' instructions and quickly rushed to the battlefield. He could not wait to participate in the battle to make up for his failure in the mission.
With Mentor's speed, no enemy can escape from him. Black Star will also not be able to escape like before. This time, I can finally get rid of him completely.
This thought flashed through Ashes's mind. He couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation and pleasure. With a speed of seven hundred miles per hour, his mood was carefree.
However, the scene that unfolded in front of him was completely different from what he had expected. What was even more unexpected was that his instructor, who should never have been defeated, had not only lost, but had even died in battle!
The moment he saw Anur's corpse, Ashes was stunned. A chill rushed from his spine to his brain, turning into disbelief and fear.
Anur … how could he have been killed?!
Ashes immediately took out his communicator and dialed Anur's number.
Beep beep beep …
However, the few seconds of waiting felt like an eternity. After the call was connected, an image popped up on the screen. However, it was not the Anur that he had been expecting. It was Han Xiao's face, and he let out a deafening laugh.
"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?! "
Ashes was shocked. "How could it be you!"
"Oh, you don't like handsome men?" Han Xiao chuckled. He pressed his cheeks and turned into Anur's appearance. He then threw a flying kiss. "How about this one?"
Crack!
Cracks appeared on the screen.
Ashes almost crushed his communicator. He was shocked and angry at the same time. His last glimmer of hope had also disappeared.
Anur was really dead!
All kinds of emotions surged in his heart. Disbelief, anger, panic, confusion …
His remaining rationality reminded him of his current situation. If the other party could kill Anur, he would also be in danger.
"I'm the only one left. I can't stay and fight anymore. I can't be annihilated here!"
Ashes gritted his teeth. He stepped on the black cloud and fled as fast as lightning.
The situation here had to be reported. As he fled, he contacted the higher-ups of Dark-star and reported the news of Anur's death. This news immediately caused an explosive sensation within the higher-ups of Dark-star.
The higher-ups of Dark-star were prepared to hear the news of the completion of the mission, but what they heard was bad news.
No one had expected that Anur would actually die in this mission that they were confident of succeeding. When they assigned the mission to two Calamity Grade Supers, all the higher-ups felt that they would definitely succeed. This news completely messed up their plans.
All along, the strength of DarkStar had been constantly changing. At their peak, they had eight Calamity Grade Supers, with varying levels of strength. Anur was one of them and was one of the elders in the organization. However, after all these years of fighting, there were many casualties, and only two of the eight remained. Anur was one of them. Other than these two elders, the rest of the Grade A combatants were all newbies that had been nurtured by DarkStar.
Losing a senior figure was an extremely heavy blow to Dark-star. Furthermore, the speed at which the high-level combatants were replenished could not keep up with the speed of loss. The number of Calamity Grade Supers in the organization was already extremely low.
In less than a minute, the higher-ups of Dark-star issued an emergency order to Ashes.
"Give up this mission and leave Noriose immediately. The fleet will pick you up. We have already lost an important member. We cannot lose another one!"
Originally, he was the one who was chasing, but now, his role had been reversed. Ashes was extremely unwilling, but the situation was beyond his control, so he could only endure it. He turned off the communicator and fled as fast as he could. He did not dare delay at all. He was worried that the enemy would catch up to him at any moment.
In reality, Han Xiao and the others could not leave the protective shield. The people of Noriose could not wait for Ashes to leave as soon as possible. Ashes did not know that no one was chasing after him. They were all waiting for him to leave. He was just scaring himself.
…
An hour later …
Hum!
The protective shield disappeared, and the metal pillars were retracted into the ground. Noriose was no longer quarantined.
This also meant that the financial group had confirmed that the battle was over. They had monitored the appearance of the Dark-star fleet, picked up Ashes, and left. This made the financial group heave a sigh of relief. Although there were thousands of battleships outside Noriose's atmosphere, it was naturally best if there was no conflict.
The pursuing forces retreated, and Han Xiaoxin knew that Nagojin's mission was considered complete. He only needed to wait for Godora's reinforcements to arrive to settle the score. Killing one Anur was already a huge gain for him.
The battle had ended, but the effects had only just begun to spread. The death of a Grade A member of DarkStar was something that Godora would pay close attention to. In fact, the entire Shattered Star Ring would pay close attention to this news. While countless people were dying every moment, everyone was different. The death of a Calamity Grade Super with a sensitive identity was naturally more eye-catching than the deaths of millions of ordinary people on countless planets.
Furthermore, he had used Ames' ability, so she would probably be very curious about it.
However, this was not the main issue now. Dealing with the Noriose financial group was the main issue now. After Han Xiao and the others escaped, they were immediately asked to meet with the upper echelons of the financial group.
The financial group was prepared to settle the score, mainly because of the issue of compensation. They wanted an explanation.
