After carefully checking his Calamity Grade changes, Han Xiao tidied his clothes, unlocked the door, and left the training room.
Turning around the corridor of the base, he bumped into Aroshia.
"Where are you going?"
Han Xiao greeted her and almost blurted out, "Have you eaten?"
"Back to the room." Just as Aroshia was about to walk past him, she suddenly stopped, moved closer to Han Xiao, and sniffed. Waves appeared in her eyes.
"What's wrong? Do I smell good?"
Seeing this, Han Xiao could not help but lower his head to look at his body.
Aroshia shook her head, and a look of uncertainty appeared on her usually calm face. When she walked past him earlier, she had sensed that Han Xiao's aura was different. It was even more ethereal, and she had thought that she had sensed wrongly.
"What changes have you undergone?" Aroshia was never one to hide things and asked directly.
"Oh, you've sensed it. My ability has made a breakthrough, and I'm already at the Calamity Grade." Han Xiao did not hide it. He had to let his officers know about this sooner or later.
Aroshia expressed her understanding. Han Xiao had a special meaning to her, and no matter what he did, she would not doubt him and would have absolute trust in him. Furthermore, Han Xiao had recently experienced a huge battle, so it was normal for him to have made a breakthrough.
For people without an interface, fighting was the most effective way to increase their strength.
That's right …
Han Xiao suddenly thought of something and pulled Aroshia aside with a smile.
"Don't be in a hurry to leave. Let me show you a magic trick."
As he said that, Han Xiao activated [Chaos Being Release], and his entire body dissipated into a gray fog, floating in front of her.
Aroshia's eyes widened. This kind of transformation in the form of an energy field was very similar to her energy form. She stretched out her finger to touch the gray fog, but it directly passed through it. She did not touch anything, and it was no different from a normal fog.
Hum!
Aroshia directly turned into an energy body and entered the gray fog. The golden energy body intertwined with the gray fog, and she felt a warm feeling rising from her body. Normally, she would only have such an experience when she went to the reactor to charge.
Upon thinking of charging, Aroshia subconsciously tried to absorb the energy in the gray fog. However, her Chaos Body was maintained by Han Xiao's energy, and this energy was under Han Xiao's control.
Sensing Aroshia's actions, Han Xiao released a small portion of his energy for Aroshia to absorb it. Aroshia suddenly turned into a ball of light, and the energy she absorbed from her Chaos Body made her feel very comfortable. she could not even be bothered to maintain her human form.. if not for the fact that she did not have vocal cords after energy, she could not help but sigh in her body. if not for the fact she did not have vocal cords.
The energy of a Calamity Grade Super was denser, and it also had Han Xiao's genetic imprint. It was completely different from the energy in the reactor.
Energy was the HP of the Chaos Body, and with a little of it being absorbed, the HP would immediately decrease. Han Xiao realized that the Chaos Body could transmit mental signals, and he sent an idea to Aroshia, asking her to inject energy into the gray fog. Logically speaking, energy could be exchanged.
A golden energy entered the gray fog, and as expected, the HP of the Chaos Body was instantly replenished. Han Xiao had a new idea. Because most of the talents in the Chaos Body mode were frozen, Aroshia could not only be a 'battery' but also a portable HP bottle for the Chaos Body.
With that thought in mind, the mental signal was sent out again. Aroshia changed her form into the shape of the Chaos Body and completely merged into the gray fog. The Chaos Body instantly shone with a golden light. This state was a deeper connection, and the efficiency of energy transfer was higher. It was equivalent to Aroshia possessing the Chaos Body.
After experimenting for a while, Han Xiao deactivated the Chaos Body and returned to his physical body. Aroshia bounced out of his body and also deactivated her energy transformation.
"Is this your new ability?" Aroshia could not help but ask. For some reason, her beautiful face was a little red.
"Yes, I comprehended the power of the void."
Han Xiao's expression was a little strange. He felt like he had done something strange just now.
Shaking his head, Han Xiao shook his head and recalled what he had felt just now. He suddenly remembered that the Chaos Body was a life form in the form of a domain, and it also used energy as its lifeline. Therefore, he looked for Aroshia to test it out. The result was not unexpected. As long as they were connected and controlled by their consciousness, the energy of both parties could be transferred to each other.
However, Aroshia could actively absorb energy, but the Chaos Body could not. It could only passively accept the input of energy. Aroshia's energy transformation ability had an important characteristic, which was that it could be used in almost all forms of energy. This was the basis to ensure the conversion.
The talent of the Chaos Observer is very special. There should be more uses for it … Han Xiao thought.
After advancing to the Calamity Grade and gaining a new ability, he had to familiarize himself with it.
He casually threw an [Observer's Mark] to Aroshia, and the two of them left.
On the way, Han Xiao suddenly thought of Risda's request. He was not prepared to go back on his word. After Risda finished his work, he would help Aroshia recover her memories as soon as possible.
In any case, he had already guessed the final goal of the [Reboot] mission. As long as he did not deal with the [Mecha Empire] Manison, it would be fine.
…
Over the next few days, the officers of the mercenary group gradually found out that Han Xiao had officially stepped into the Calamity Grade. Unlike Aroshia's calmness, all the officers were shocked.
That was a Calamity Grade!
Even before their captain reached the Calamity Grade, he was already able to face three Calamity Grade Supers head-on. Just how strong would he be now that he had officially stepped into the Calamity Grade?
The one who was the most shocked was Herlous. Before Han Xiao had even reached Grade B, he had already joined the Black Star Mercenary Corps. He had personally witnessed Han Xiao catching up to him at a miraculous speed step by step, overtaking him, and finally leaving him far behind. Now, even his taillights could not be seen.
In just a few short years, he had gone from Grade C to Grade A?
Even he had only touched the edge of Grade B +!
Herlous had never heard of such an example. Just what did this person eat to grow up?
Sylvia was the happiest. After spending so much time together for so many years, she had already treated the Black Star Corps as her second home. The mercenaries here were also very nice to hear, and she really liked this place.
Now, there was finally a Calamity Grade Supers supporting them. Furthermore, Black Star was also her teacher. She also felt honored.
However, over the past few days, none of the officers had seen Han Xiao. Han Xiao had been in seclusion in the machinery modification room.
Grade A was the hidden prerequisite to fusing with some high-level blueprints. One's equipment could be fully upgraded, and there was no need to change the model. However, they could use stronger machines of the same type. Han Xiao had lost a large number of machines in the battle, so he needed to make up for the lack of weapons.
The Void Dragon Mechanical Suit had already been destroyed, and only the core material, the Void Dragon Bone, was left. Han Xiao had fused with a higher-grade mechanical suit and was preparing to create an even stronger mechanical suit to keep up with the strength of a Calamity Grade.
There were three core materials for the new mechanical suit — Kyle Alloy, PR-909 Super Nano Polymer Fiber, and refined Overga Metal Ore. These were all military-controlled resources and were extremely rare and expensive. The ones who controlled these three resources were obviously the Star Cluster Civilizations.
These three materials were considered strategic resources that were traded between civilizations and were almost never circulated on the market. As long as they appeared on the black market, they would be bought by anonymous customers within a few seconds. A thousand grams of Kyle Alloy was worth as much as a small spaceship. It was a pity that there was no market for it. Even if one had the money, there was no way to buy it.
However, as a civilization that controlled an entire Star System, Godora had a stockpile of it. They would purchase it privately from the Star Cluster Civilizations.
When Han Xiao was selling the Mutation Source, the additional condition was that Godora would allow him to purchase a portion of the restricted resources.
This meant that the Great Mechanic Han had the means to obtain these controlled resources. However, while Godora had made a compromise, they also had an additional request, which was that there was a limit to the number of controlled resources that could be purchased every year. They would not allow too many controlled resources to flow into the outside world.
Taking out his communicator, Han Xiao contacted Nagojin and was about to apply for the purchase. However, the moment the call connected, Nagojin spoke first.
"Black Star, it's time."
Nagojin's tone was solemn.
Hearing this, Han Xiao temporarily put aside the matter of buying materials, narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice,
He narrowed his eyes and said, "Is Godora ready?"
"The fleet has already been deployed, and the locations of all the Dark-star motherships are within our grasp. The upper echelons will launch an attack at any moment. This is the most secretive operation. The code name for this operation is [Hodelias]!"
This code name was a transliteration of Godora's ancient language, and the meaning was similar to 'uprooting' or 'cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots'.
Han Xiao's face was solemn. When he was selling the information, he had already known that this day would come. Godora's official counterattack against Dark-star was about to begin, and this was a war that he had single-handedly created.
Such an event had not happened in his previous life.
"Black Star, we need you," Nagojin said solemnly.
Hearing that, Han Xiao's eyes flickered, and he laughed.
"Heh, you have to know that providing information and personally participating in the battle are two different things. Are you trying to hire me for war?"
"We will pay you a remuneration that will satisfy you, the same as the Sky Ring Army and other large mercenary groups."
Han Xiaoxin's heart skipped a beat. He had already planned to participate in the battle, and he had only casually mentioned it. He did not expect Godora to be willing to pay him for war.
It seemed like Godora was going to kill Dark-star at all costs this time.
Dark-star had been in chaos for many years, and Godora's accumulated resentment had already broken through the sky. Once there was a way to vent it, it was like a flash flood or a snowstorm.
Without the ability to hide, Dark-star would have to endure Godora's wrath. Without knowing anything, they would be attacked by Godora's official army.
It was finally time to settle the scores between the two sides.
This was also a chance to complete [Godora's Ally], and perhaps an important part of the [Bloodline] mission.
After hanging up, Han Xiao rubbed his chin and called Herlous over.
"Old Herlous, we have work to do. Gather all the mercenaries and prepare to depart."
"Including the hundreds of thousands of new Inhumans?"
"Yes, everyone."
Han Xiao smiled.
Using a galactic war as an entry point to lead the players into Galaxy did not seem like a bad idea.
It was time to let the universe know about the Black Star Corps!
