The two of them arrived at the conference room, and a human-shaped hole had been left in the wall of the room.
Nagojin sternly instructed the guards not to let anyone in. He then closed the door and stared at the Mutation Source that Han Xiao had placed on the table with a fiery gaze. He walked over to the table and observed it carefully.
A pool of black liquid was sealed in a transparent sphere, and its shape was slowly changing.
"Are you sure that this is the source of the Mutation Disaster?" Nagojin stared at it without blinking. After pausing for a moment, he added, "It is not that I do not trust you, but this is an important matter, and I have to be sure."
Han Xiao could understand Nagojin's caution and slowly said, "Relax, this is an unopened Mutation Source. Two years ago, when I was carrying out a mission, I coincidentally met Dark-star's cargo. This was what they were transporting, and I snatched it from Dark-star. I did not know what it was, so I handed it over to Floating Dragon Island.
"When the Mutation Disaster broke out, I browsed through a lot of information and gradually confirmed that this black, viscous liquid was the Mutation Source. Half a month ago, I came to find you to talk about this matter. However, you were busy at that time, so I went back alone to retrieve the item."
Nagojin slapped his head and said regretfully, "You should have contacted me earlier!"
Han Xiao shrugged, expressing his helplessness. "With this Mutation Source, you should be able to develop the antidote as soon as possible, right?"
"I am not a researcher, and everything will have to wait for the conclusion of the research department." Nagojin clenched his fists and could not contain his excitement. "However, it will definitely increase the speed of the research!"
Godora's researchers had been researching the Mutation Disaster and trying to develop an antidote. However, they could only start from the infected and lacked information on the Mutation Source.
However, if they had the Mutation Source, they would be able to conduct more experiments and find the right antidote. Their research speed would increase by leaps and bounds!
The earlier they could resolve the Mutation Disaster, the earlier they could prevent the situation from worsening!
This meant that with Han Xiao's item, Godora could break the situation created by Dark-star and turn the tables!
At this time, Han Xiao interrupted Nagojin's fantasy and said with a smile, "Don't misunderstand. I didn't say that I would give it to you."
"What?!"
Nagojin looked over abruptly with a stunned expression. There was a hint of enmity in his eyes. Godora was determined to obtain this item, even if it was Black Star.
"Don't be so nervous. What I mean is that I can give you the item, but I need something in return. I'm a mercenary, and I prefer to solve problems through transactions. In other words …"
Han Xiao placed his hands under his chin and asked, "How much is Godora willing to pay for this Mutation Source?"
"I see."
Nagojin narrowed his eyes and calmed down a little. A thought flashed through his mind.
At such a crucial moment, Black Star had suddenly taken out a crucial item to break the situation. That was very strange!
Perhaps Black Star only wanted to make a fortune from the war, but there was also a small possibility that Black Star and Dark-star had an inhumane relationship.
All this time, Black Star had caused quite a lot of damage to DarkStar. The first impression that Black Star gave to a normal person was that the two of them were mortal enemies, and it was impossible for it to be a ruse. However, this kind of thinking was fixed. If DarkStar endured the humiliation and did not take revenge but instead contacted Black Star privately, paying a high price to cooperate with Black Star, it was possible.
Black Star was a mercenary that fought for money, and Nagojin did not have high hopes for a mercenary's moral integrity. It was not that he was overthinking, but it was better to be safe than sorry. Now that Dark-star was in such a critical situation, he had no choice but to consider all the risks. After all, Black Star had suddenly taken out a crucial item for Dark-star. Even if the other party had explained the source of the item clearly, it was still hard to believe.
These thoughts flashed past his mind, and Nagojin pondered for a moment before saying with a deep voice, "Does Floating Dragon know about your actions?"
He secretly decided to contact Floating Dragon privately. Floating Dragon naturally would not cooperate with Dark-star, and he would only be at ease if Floating Dragon confirmed Han Xiao's words.
"Of course they know." Han Xiao had already expected this. He chuckled in his heart and shrugged. "If you're worried, you can ask Ames. I've already brought her over."
Plop!
Nagakin's foot slipped, and he fell directly under the table.
He then got up with a dumbfounded expression.
"Y-y-y-you brought the Dragon Emperor to this planet?"
"That's right, she's at the plaza."
Nagojin stared at Han Xiao in disbelief.
Oh my God Gal! What kind of person is Ames? She was actually called over by Black Star. She is Black Star's boss! Just how much authority does this fellow have on Floating Dragon? Am I playing Wayne Cards? Bastard!
"I have nothing else to ask."
Nagojin smiled bitterly. Alright, since Black Star had already pulled such a big shot over, it was obvious that he was not afraid of confronting them. What was there to doubt? It was definitely true. No matter what, there was no way he would suspect that Ames was related to Dark-star. After all, Dark-star did not have the qualifications to do so!
Han Xiao's expression was normal. On the way back, he had already told Ames about the Mutation Source. It was not something that could not be revealed, and there was no need for him to hide it from Ames. Han Xiao understood her and knew that she would not care about such a small matter. If it was Jenny, she would probably have slammed the table and roared.
As expected, Ames did not have much interest in this matter, so Han Xiao did not have any worries.
"Black Star, this matter is very important. I need to inform the upper echelons. You can raise your conditions with them."
Nagojin did not hesitate and took out his communicator. He contacted the upper echelons and explained the situation.
Cries of disbelief could be heard from the communicator. The various departments were racking their brains to think of a way to contain the situation, and this piece of news made them overjoyed. Not only did it reach the War Bureau, it even reached the table of the highest leader of Godora!
The upper echelons of Godora were in an uproar!
Very quickly, Godora sent a few of the upper echelons to deal with this matter. The images of a few of them appeared at the same time, and they immediately looked at Han Xiao.
"You are Black Star? Just say it directly. What conditions do you have? "The few upper echelons had solemn expressions and were prepared to pay a huge price.
However, the upper echelons of Godora were not unhappy about this. Since it was a transaction, it was only right for them to pay the price. Asking someone to give up their resources for free was a hooligan act. Even if Ames was not here, they would not act like hooligans. Those in their positions would not casually make enemies.
Could a problem that could be solved with money be called a problem?
Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and he smiled. "Then let's talk about it in detail."
In the next hour, both parties engaged in an intense negotiation. The few upper echelons of Godora would occasionally argue and discuss their conditions. Step by step, they reached a conclusion that both parties could accept. In front of these upper echelons, even Nagojin did not have the right to speak.
After a long time, the argument finally stopped.
"We accept your conditions. When this matter is settled, we will fulfill the agreement we made today," one of the upper echelons said solemnly.
While this deal was akin to taking advantage of the situation, Han Xiao did not ask for an exorbitant price. The conditions that he had proposed were all conditions that he had already thought of, and he did not raise the price. This attitude of his made the upper echelons of Godora feel much more comfortable.
Han Xiao nodded and was in a good mood. The outcome of the negotiation was much better than he had expected.
Just as he had guessed, Godora understood the situation that they were in and urgently needed him to provide them with a way out. With such a premise, the negotiation was much easier.
Godora was extremely sincere and agreed to most of his conditions. Furthermore, they were all in a hurry to make the final decision. The upper echelons who had the authority to make the decision were all the upper echelons, so the negotiation was extremely efficient.
The Mutation Source was exchanged for many things. First, there was a sum of money, three million Enas, which was directly transferred over to replenish his funds and fill up his wallet. Then, there was the supply of resources that would last for a few years. This included all sorts of machinery, raw materials, and specialties. These were all high-quality products that were manufactured in the military factory, including finished products such as spaceships. There were thousands of products that were sold at the lowest cost price.
Other than these practical benefits, there were also requirements such as status, special treatment, and access to certain areas. The goal was to increase the reputation of the mercenary group, his own status, and NP resources. These conditions had to be fulfilled by Godora in the long run.
He was not worried that Godora would go back on their word. His identity as Floating Dragon was already a guarantee.
Furthermore, Han Xiao had hinted that Floating Dragon would support his actions to obtain the favor of Godora and strengthen their diplomatic relationship. This was not an alliance, but the relationship between Floating Dragon and Godora would be closer than before. There was no harm in having another friend.
Ames was respected by many, and she gave Floating Dragon a huge amount of influence. Many organizations gave her face, but this could not change the fact that Floating Dragon was weak. This kind of influence was only on the surface. The forces of the other super experts, on the other hand, all had deep cooperation and interests with many civilizations. They were deeply rooted, and their forces were powerful. Han Xiao would not go against Floating Dragon's neutral stance. However, being neutral did not mean that they could not make friends.
Han Technician was more than willing to help Floating Dragon connect with other organizations. This was originally Jenny's job, but it was clear that this cold woman was too conservative. Han Xiao did not mind finding more things for her to do.
The stronger Floating Dragon was, the more benefits he would gain.
Godora was willing to maintain a good relationship with Floating Dragon, so they naturally understood what Han Xiao was hinting at.
"Godora is grateful for your contribution, and we will not mistreat our friends." The various upper echelons looked at Han Xiao deeply.
These powerful people in Godora felt that it was time to reevaluate Black Star's importance.
Du!
The image disappeared, and only the two of them were left in the room.
After obtaining a satisfactory result, Han Xiao tossed the Mutation Source to Nagojin.
"Take it and send it back to Godora secretly. Don't let anyone steal it halfway."
"I understand."
Nagojin nodded solemnly. He could not wait to see Godora destroy Dark-star's evil plan. Even now, he felt that Han Xiao was extremely pleasing to the eye.
Han Xiao sat on the chair and stretched lazily, feeling relaxed.
He had finally handed over the Mutation Source, and Godora would be able to quickly resolve their predicament. It should be more than a year earlier than in his previous life, and the situation would be completely changed by him.
Dark-star was still in the dark. When he realized that the plan that he had prepared for so long had been ruined, who knew what kind of expression he would have.
The players would not have to waste time in Blue Star if they completed this Main Storyline earlier. As a member of the mercenary group, they would be able to create far more value than in his previous life!
The experience of the players and the development of the storyline in their eyes would also take a completely different path!
"I wonder what the future will be like."
