"I didn't lose to Godora. To think that I actually lost to him …"
The Dark-star leader had a complicated expression.
Thinking back, when Black Star had first entered his field of vision, he had still been an unknown mercenary. After Black Star had killed Anur, he had taken him seriously for the first time. Who would have thought that he would rise like a rocket and defeat three Calamity Grade Supers? In the end, the infamous Dark-star had become Black Star's stepping stone.
"What a terrifying character …" The Dark-star leader was not angry but helpless.
Why did we provoke such a person in the first place?
Ashes' face was green.
A few years ago, when he had fought with Black Star on Floating Dragon Island for the first time, he had never imagined that Black Star would become the destroyer of Dark-star. At this moment, he only felt that the universe was vast and unpredictable.
Black Star had almost become his nightmare.
Although he valued Black Star's potential more than his other colleagues, it was too late to say anything now. The Dark-star leader was about to bring him out of the Shattered Star Ring and said that he would go to another Star Field to find a backer.
Ashes trusted the leader's judgment. Therefore, at this time, even if they knew that Black Star was the real mastermind, they could not turn back to deal with him. Furthermore, the Garton Star System was filled with troops chasing after them. Going back would be walking right into a trap.
However, Ashes was still unwilling to give up.
The Dark-star leader glanced at him and said coldly, "Don't think too much. A loss is a loss. Before we recover our forces, we don't have the ability to take revenge."
"I know. The most important thing now is to go to the backer you mentioned." Ashes nodded solemnly and suppressed his anger and unwillingness. Before he had the ability, revenge was just empty talk. He paused and asked, "Who is this backer you mentioned?"
"A Beyond Grade A Super. You'll know when the time comes."
Ashes was overjoyed. "To think that we would be able to form a relationship with a Beyond Grade A. This is great. This way, we won't have to worry about Floating Dragon anymore."
The Dark-star leader glanced at Ashes and suddenly asked, "Ashes, what do you think is the best future for the hybrids?"
"The best future? Of course, it's to overthrow the rule of the purebloods and become the new Godora. "Ashes did not hesitate.
The Dark-star leader was noncommittal as he slowly asked, "What is the extent of overthrowing the rule of the purebloods? All the top officials in the government had become hybrids? Or kill all the purebloods? If we succeed in taking power, the inherent class structure of the purebloods is not something that we can change overnight. Once the coup succeeds, the remaining members of Godora will ask for help from their allies. At that time, even if we succeed in overthrowing the rule of the purebloods, it will only be a flash in the pan. Furthermore, the Star Cluster Civilizations in the Colton Star Cluster will not recognize our legal status. "
Ashes frowned. "Even if there are many difficulties, there will always be a chance."
"What if there is a better solution? The hybrids will leave Godora and get rid of the rule of the purebloods. We can build a home for the hybrids in another Star System. All the people will be hybrids, and there will be no more bloodline problems. We can rule ourselves and get rid of the label of Godora, becoming a new civilization, a new race."
Thinking of such a scene, Ashes' eyes were filled with yearning, but he shook his head. He had thought of this question before, so he did not need to think too much to answer.
"We have no place to hide from an open split. Godora will destroy us immediately. Furthermore, if we want to establish a new civilization, territory, diplomacy, productivity, population, and so on are all difficult problems. Furthermore, the political resistance is too great. The other Star System Civilizations and even the Star Cluster Civilizations will not sit by and watch us establish a new civilization. Almost no one will support us."
"That's right. No civilization will support us unless a higher political power intervenes." The Dark-star leader stopped this topic and changed the topic. "You pilot the spaceship. I have something to do."
Then, the Dark-star leader stood up and left the cockpit. He took out the communicator in the secret compartment and sent a communication request.
The blurry figure appeared again.
"We will be leaving the Shattered Star Ring very soon. Everything is ready."
"Hmm, we have already introduced you to that person. He is very interested in your sacrifice and is waiting for you."
The Dark-star leader nodded and said, "There's another thing. It's about Black Star … he's an obstacle."
"You don't have to worry about Black Star. If necessary, we will find someone to offer him some jobs that he can't refuse." The blurry figure smiled and said, "He's a mercenary after all. Sacrificing himself in a mission is the most normal way for a mercenary to die."
After a few words, the Dark-star leader hung up and returned to the cockpit.
The spaceship continued its journey after collecting fuel, heading out of the Shattered Star Ring and disappearing into the universe.
…
Floating Dragon Island …
"Black Star is the strongest officer of Floating Dragon, right?"
"Ames has really found a treasure."
"Hehe, did you know that I fought with Black Star on Floating Dragon before?"
"You were beaten up, weren't you?"
Godora's celebration was broadcasted there as well. Many scavengers and galactic pirates at the dock gathered together and chatted.
At this moment, a small iron-gray spaceship slowly descended. The body of the spaceship was painted with a special symbol. The symbol was of two crossed arms covering a cross, and the periphery was a ring made of square patterns of different shapes that intersected with each other.
Noticing this spaceship, the voices of the galactic pirates suddenly became softer. Their faces became fearful, and they kept quiet out of fear.
This symbol represented another Beyond Grade A organization in the Shattered Star Ring — Bloodshed Land.
[Tyrant] Heber, a Beyond Grade A Pugilist, was known as the 'Moving Stellar Furnace' and 'The One Who Stepped into the Forbidden Zone of Life'.
Heber was different from the neutral Ames. He was a VIP of a Star Cluster Civilization, and the Bloodshed Land under him was a transcendental organization. Compared to him, Floating Dragon was like the difference between a baby and an adult.
A group of people walked down the spaceship. The leader was a burly man wearing heavy armor. He did not wear a helmet, revealing his face with the characteristics of the Demon Race. His skin was dark red, and there was a pair of curved horns on his head. One of the horns was only half broken.
Two dark lines extended from his forehead to his chin. His pupils were pure white, and he gave off an unapproachable aura.
Every step he took left a shallow footprint on the ground, showing the terrifying weight on his body.
"That's one of the core officers of Bloodshed Land, 'Broken Horn' Malekith."
"Bloodshed Land actually came to Floating Dragon. Do these two Beyond Grade A Supers have some kind of plan?"
The people at the dock held their breaths and whispered to each other. They watched as Malekith from Bloodshed Land ordered his subordinates to be on standby while he headed toward the palace at the center of Floating Dragon Island and disappeared from their sight.
Not long later …
A meteor suddenly rose from the palace at the center of Floating Dragon Island at an extremely fast speed, flying across the entire city and landing heavily near the dock.
Boom!
Like a meteor, a deep crater was formed on the ground.
The surrounding galactic pirates were shocked and hurriedly looked over.
Dust filled the air, and Malekith climbed up from the crater, patting the dust off his body.
The Dragon Emperor had never liked the people from Bloodshed Land. After seeing Ames, he was directly thrown out by Ames with her force field. However, although Malekith was covered in dust, he was unharmed.
"The invitation has been delivered. Let's go."
Malekith was expressionless as he ordered his subordinates to board the spaceship. The spaceship took off and disappeared from the sight of the people at the dock.
…
Blue Star …
The Sanctuary and the Six Nations that were rebuilding after the disaster welcomed uninvited guests.
Fleets from the universe landed on Blue Star one after another. These people were all from the free financial groups that were active in the Garton Star System.
After discussing with the leaders of the Six Nations, Bennett decided to use the base that Black Star had left on Blue Star as the landing point to welcome the guests from space.
The members of the financial groups gathered together and talked to Bennett and the leaders of the Six Nations.
"May I know why you're here?"
With the things that Han Xiao had left behind for them to take note of when interacting with aliens, Bennett and the upper echelons of the Six Nations were much calmer.
"Hello, Blue Star's government, I'm a senior director of the Lauren Financial Group …"
"I'm the manager of the Brilliance Financial Group …"
The members of the financial groups introduced themselves one after another before revealing their intentions.
"We hope to reach a business cooperation agreement and invest in Blue Star. Simply put, we will pay to help you modify Blue Star in exchange for a business license to build an industry here."
Due to the background of Blue Star with Floating Dragon, as well as the recent sensational incident of Black Star obtaining the Golden Gal Badge, Blue Star had become a hot commodity in the eyes of many galactic financial groups. Not only was there a business opportunity, but they could also express their goodwill to Black Star and Floating Dragon.
Thus, many financial groups decided to invest in the development of Blue Star.
Normally, advanced civilizations could not interfere with the progress of low-level civilizations. However, rules were dead, and humans were alive. What counted as the intervention of an advanced civilization was a blurry line. The spontaneous investment of the galactic financial groups had nothing to do with advanced civilizations. As for whether there was any shadow of an advanced civilization behind it, it was even more unclear.
Furthermore, this was the Shattered Star Ring, the edge of the known universe.
Bennett and the upper echelons of the Six Nations were overjoyed. What they had dreamt of was to go from a surface civilization to a galactic civilization. Although they had taken a different path, it seemed to be an effective path.
All of this was because of the change brought about by Black Star. Having a fellow countryman who was doing well in the universe was like the goddess of luck looking out for Blue Star.
Indeed, hugging Han Xiao's thigh was better than hugging Godora's smelly foot.
After reaching a consensus, the Blue Star government began to discuss cooperation with the galactic financial groups for the first time.
This planet gradually began to integrate into the universe.
The galactic era of Blue Star had begun.
…
On the second day of the award ceremony, Han Xiao bade farewell to the upper echelons of Godora and the various Army Commanders and received fifty Violent Falcon battleships and a Fortress-class flagship. The fleet that had expanded many times carried all the members of the Black Star Corps and left Godora's mother planet.
This trip could be said to be a fruitful one. With the current number of fleets, it was more than enough to fight a small-scale galactic war. It could be said that they had expanded their business scope.
After a few days, Planet Golden Gate was finally in sight.
"We've finally arrived at the headquarters."
