The numbness, itchiness, and soreness were like vines growing rapidly, wrapping around his limbs and bones. Every inch of his flesh and bones felt as though there were countless bugs crawling on them. Han Xiao could hear the rumbling of a tsunami in his ears, and the cells in his body started to become active, undergoing extraordinary changes. The world in front of him started to tremble and blur.
Every time he obtained a powerful talent, his genes would undergo a mutation, and the pain would be unbearable. Han Xiao's expression changed, and he quickly flew into the BlackLight Stealth, leaving the line of sight of everyone. He found the training room and closed the door. Following which, an even more intense pain exploded out. It was as though his body had turned into a wet towel that was being wrung dry by a pair of large hands.
Experience told him that the more intense the pain, the greater the change. The pain this time was comparable to the Race Evolution when he became a Void Prowler. These two Molding Talents from the Mutation Source had not only given him new abilities but also a change in his life form.
Han Xiao gritted his teeth and felt the reorganization of his cells. Gradually, he felt that he could initiate cell division. After a while, the pain slowly subsided, and the feeling in his body was completely different. In his senses, his cell membrane had become tougher, but there was a sponge-like texture to it. His internal structure seemed to have changed, giving him new abilities.
He hammered his thigh and carefully felt it. When the external impact came into contact with the surface of his body, a portion of the force that was blocked outside was absorbed by his skin and went deep into his muscles and bones. More of his cells absorbed the energy of this force, and Vital Force was extracted from his cells. This energy was transformed into Vital Force through his cells.
After cutting his arm, there was a faint trace of blood. Han Xiao recalled the new sense of control and activated his energy. The cells around the wound quickly divided, and the wound healed in the blink of an eye.
Han Xiao wiped the sweat off his forehead and grinned. "It is indeed a very powerful talent. My life form has increased again, and my meat quality has become even better."
Including the two new talents, he now had four Molding Talents.
Han Xiaoxin was in a good mood, but he suddenly realized a problem, and his mouth twitched.
D * mn, out of the four specialties, three of them increased his tankiness. One increased his maximum HP, one made him immune to True Damage, and one increased his recovery speed. Right now, he felt as if he was a huge iron pillar. His body had become even harder than a mech. On the road to becoming a main tank, he was like a wild horse.
'The greatest weakness of the Army Style is that I'm afraid of charging forward, and I'll be killed by the enemy while surrounded by an army of ten thousand.' Han Xiao chuckled. With how tanky he was, those who dared to charge at him would definitely not be able to return alive.
Increasing his tankiness was a good thing, but Han Xiao preferred [Intermediate Energy Absorption]. Providing bonuses to the Mech Legion consumed a lot of energy, and the consumption was not low. Now that he could continuously replenish his energy, it was like he could casually throw out skills and Mechanical Force bonuses.
The most important point was that the higher his overall level, the more damage he could resist. This meant that the effect of this talent would increase as he leveled up and would never become outdated. Thinking about it, even if the enemy could not hit his body, he could still control mechanical creations to attack himself and absorb energy. What was this? This was a f * cking perpetual motion machine!
Super stamina, never getting tired, and even if he worked for three days and three nights, his waist would not be sore or his legs would not hurt. He had really become a boss that did not need to worry about his MP. Just thinking about it made him feel powerful.
Who can kill me?
Han Xiao suddenly woke up and knocked on his forehead to calm himself down. That was close, that was close. He had almost gotten carried away.
"Although it's a bug-level Molding Ability, the upper limit of energy is still limited. It's far lower than HP. Even if there's a fivefold conversion rate, to me, using all of it to recover HP will only increase my HP by a third. There's still a limit to the recovery speed. Furthermore, I can only absorb sixty percent of the damage that is blocked by my resistance. If I meet an opponent of the same level or stronger, my HP will drop as fast as my MP. My resistance is not as perverse as the Mutation Source's constant seventy-five percent. '
Han Xiao pondered for a moment and came to a conclusion. Excluding the other high-level Supers with Boss Templates, although he was still a B + Grade Super, it was not too possible for an ordinary Calamity Grade to kill him. The longer the battle dragged on, the more advantageous it would be for him. Even if Nagojin had used a high explosive and high armor piercing combo to cripple Anur, he would still be able to endure it.
'So damn tanky. Am I really a Mechanic?' Han Xiao could not help but complain.
Shaking his head, Han Xiao opened the mission interface. Different from the other players, his [Mutation Disaster] Main Storyline Mission was still incomplete.
The mission of the other players was only to protect Blue Star, but Han Xiao's mission included all the calamity planets. The condition for success was to protect any calamity planet, and this requirement had already been met, ensuring that the mission would not fail.
However, the problem of the other calamity planets had yet to be resolved. Thus, his mission would not be completed immediately like the other Blue Star players.
After the events in my previous life ended, Godora would create a corresponding dungeon. After I complete the Main Storyline Mission, I should be able to obtain the right to create a dungeon for the Mutation Disaster, Han Xiao thought.
Although he was mainly operating in Blue Star, his actions of providing the samples also contributed to the progress of the other calamity planets. The amount of progress he had accumulated was an astronomical figure that the players could not imagine, and he did not know how many rewards he would receive after the mission was completed.
After organizing the rewards for this mission, Han Xiao went to the captain's room and looked down at the situation on the ground. The battlefield was basically cleaned up, and Herlous had brought the corpses of the beasts onto the spaceship. The few hundred players were also able to board the spaceship. Previously, in order to search for the Mutation Source, many players had been sent to different regions of Blue Star, and he still had to bring them back. However, this was the work of others, and he did not need to worry about it.
After packing up, the spaceships returned together. The BlackLight Stealth flew at the front and maintained a low speed. Since the matter had been resolved, there was no need to rush. Everyone was rather relaxed … although Herlous and the other officers were rather lazy to begin with.
On the spaceship, Han Xiao did not relax for too long. His thoughts quickly turned to the future, and he fell into deep thought.
The Mutation Disaster in Blue Star had finally come to an end. According to the plan that he had made long ago, after this Main Storyline ended, the next task would be the most important one. He would officially lead the players into the galaxy and officially step onto the stage as a member of Black Star!
The players were the most important source of strength for him to quickly expand his forces!
Han Technician had always placed great importance on the players. The recruitment operation had lasted for a few months, and the situation was extremely good. He had already left the impression that he was an Interstellar Guide in the hearts of the players, and he was only one step away from success.
The agreement with the Six Nations of Blue Star also had to be settled. After all, it was his' hometown ', and the problem with Blue Star was only left to be resolved.
The only problem left is Dark-star.
Han Xiao's eyes gleamed.
He had changed the storyline and destroyed the core of Dark-star's plan, causing the operation of Dark-star to be unable to continue like in his previous life.
Thus, Dark-star's reaction was extremely important. Would Dark-star give up on the plan? Or would they change their strategy?
Han Xiao was also not sure. If it was the latter, he could only deal with it as it came. He was already mentally prepared for the butterfly effect, and it was inevitable that he would change the storyline.
I wonder if Dark-star's plan will be the same as in my previous life.
Rubbing his chest, Han Xiao fell into deep thought.
…
In a Dark-star mothership, many upper echelons of Dark-star were gathered together, and everyone was staring at the translucent screen on the wall. The video of the destruction of the Mutation Source was being replayed for the fourth time, and the emergency meeting room was eerily silent.
The worst-case scenario had suddenly occurred.
No matter how shocked the upper echelons were or how much disbelief they felt in their hearts, they could not change the truth.
In just a few short months, Godora had found a method to eradicate the Mutation Disaster.
"Now … what should we do?" someone asked, breaking the deathly silence.
Many upper echelons of Dark-star turned around and looked at Degulish.
Degulish opened his mouth, and his face was dark. After a moment of silence, he spoke with great difficulty.
"… Inform the leader."
He was the commander of the plan, but the plan was already showing signs of collapsing. Such a huge matter could only be decided by the leader.
The communication was quickly connected, and the projection of the Dark-star leader appeared on the empty main seat.
"I am in the Hyde Star System. If there is nothing important, do not disturb me … Hmm? Your faces are extremely ugly. What happened? "
Degulish gritted his teeth and explained the situation. His face was extremely ugly, and he felt that he had let down the leader's trust.
"This is … unexpected." The expression of the Dark-star leader changed slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said, "There is something fishy about this. I am very clear about Godora's research capabilities. Their magical techniques are still passable, but their technological standards are far inferior. They must have received some form of assistance."
"You are saying?" Degulish had a premonition.
"Hmm, you are right. The only item that went missing included a sample of the Mutation Source. According to the information gathered by the intelligence network, the Secret Message Bead ended up in the hands of Godora, but the item inside was lost midway. The highest probability is that it was taken away by the Holy Stone Civilization … but there is also another possibility."
At this moment, the expression of the silent Ashes suddenly changed, and he said, "Floating Dragon."
He was the person in charge of searching for the missing item, so he understood this matter the most.
"The report that Ashes submitted mentioned a 'mysterious person'. When he was searching for the Secret Message Bead, there was someone who used the name of Dark-star to inquire about the whereabouts of the Secret Message Bead. However, in the end, it was Floating Dragon who found the Secret Message Bead and passed it to Holy Stone. Then, the question is, did this mysterious person not find the Secret Message Bead? Or did he take away the item after finding it, leaving behind an empty Secret Message Bead? "
All the upper echelons present listened attentively. This was originally an unsolved case, but the leader seemed to have found some clues and attracted everyone's attention. Even Ashes was no exception.
"Godora's research results are definitely related to the missing sample of the Mutation Source. Godora was the first to solve the problem of Blue Star, and a member of Floating Dragon happened to be helping Blue Star. There is no need for more evidence, and the situation is already very clear," the Dark-star leader said calmly.
Degulish was enraged. "To think that it was Floating Dragon! So, passing it to Holy Stone a few years ago was just a show! Why would Floating Dragon target us like this? Wait a minute, could it be Black Star? "
Everyone was shocked, and they looked at Ashes with shock.
They still remembered that after the Noriose incident, Ashes had suggested getting rid of Black Star at all costs. At that time, he had been mocked by everyone, and even the leader had rejected his suggestion. Who would have thought that … Ashes' intuition was right!
"It's really hard for you guys to remember my suggestion …"
A hint of satisfaction flashed through Ashes' eyes, and he coldly said, "But don't you think it's too late to realize it now?"
Everyone's face froze, and they did not dare look at Ashes. They awkwardly looked away, not knowing how to reply.
The Dark-star leader sighed and said, "There were no clues back then, and I would have made the same decision if I were given another chance. A mistake is a mistake, and the most important problem now is not Black Star but how to salvage the plan."
Everyone sat up straight. While they regretted not paying attention to Black Star earlier, the situation was critical, and they did not have the time to give advice in hindsight.
The Dark-star leader looked at the serious upper echelons and suddenly relaxed his tone. "Don't pull such a long face. The situation is not that bad."
"Eh?"
Degulish and the others were stunned.
The plan was about to collapse, and this was still not bad?
"While an accident has occurred and caused the plan to be unable to proceed smoothly, the goal has been achieved, hasn't it? The chaos has already been created, and Godora has long been the loser. Even if we stop the plan and retreat, the wounds and cracks in the hearts of the purebloods and hybrids will not disappear."
Everyone's eyes lit up. That's right, they had fallen into a misunderstanding. Even if Godora resolved the Mutation Disaster and regained control of the situation, the damage caused by this incident would take many years to recover. Stopping the plan would only reduce the damage to Godora. What losses would Dark-star have?
"Then, should we stop everything and do nothing?" Degulish asked.
The Dark-star leader shook his head and said, "Why should we stop? Since things have already come to this, why not make the best of it and deal a final blow to Godora before stopping the plan? Since we can no longer delay the Mutation Disaster, let's have the infiltration team feed the Mutation Source and let it enter the mature stage. We can then trick the Mutation Source into destroying the calamity planets. This way, we can cause the low-grade civilizations under Godora to suffer a huge blow, and Godora will have to expend more effort in dealing with the calamity. "
"If the Mutation Disaster is resolved, will Godora's guard fleet still remain on the calamity planets? They won't! They will leave sooner or later, and we will send our troops to destroy those planets that have lost their guards and slaughter the low-grade civilizations. We will see if Godora will save them or not. If they don't save them, there will be no meaning in them resolving the Mutation Disaster. If they save them, even without the Mutation Disaster, Godora's troops will still be restricted by those low-grade civilizations. What's the difference between that and now? Godora will still be in a dilemma! "
"Blue Star is the first planet to escape the Mutation Disaster, and Godora's guard fleet will leave soon. We will make use of this planet as an example. Since we are already clear of Black Star's crimes, and the Dragon Emperor is not on Blue Star, we can make use of this opportunity to get rid of him. As I said before, he will pay the price sooner or later. This time, I do not wish for any accidents to happen."
Ashes suddenly stood up and finally revealed a trace of hatred. "That's exactly what I was looking for!"
Degulish narrowed his eyes and said with a sinister tone, "Humph, it's time to kill him. I will go as well and let Floating Dragon know that we are not to be trifled with."
"Then, I will join in the fun as well. Previously, Ashes and Anur failed. Including me, there will be three of us this time, so it will be safer." Another skinny upper echelon shrugged his shoulders. This person was a high-level combatant of Dark-star and was also a Calamity Grade Super.
Over the long period of time, some of their members had fallen, while others had been captured and thrown into the Rainbow Prison. Dark-star only had five Calamity Grade Supers left, and the three of them were already more than half of the total. In order to deal with Black Star, almost all of their high-level combatants had been mobilized.
Everyone seemed to have found their backbone and calmed down. They realized that their leader's train of thought was extremely clear. The original plan was to fight for a long time, but it was no longer feasible. Thus, they might as well try their best to maximize Godora's losses in the short term.
Black Star is still too inexperienced to fight with us!
At this moment, the Dark-star leader interrupted the few of them.
"This matter is not urgent. The most important thing now is to attack Planet Golden Gate."
Degulish was stunned for a moment before asking, "Are we going to continue with this operation as well?"
"Ah, why not? We have already completed our preparations, and we can attack in two days. Godora has only resolved the Mutation Disaster on a primitive planet. Will this affect our attack? "
The Dark-star leader calmly said, "On the contrary, this is an opportunity. Godora will definitely publicize the results of the disaster to alleviate the internal conflict. Isn't it good to destroy Planet Golden Gate at this juncture?"
