A chaotic battle was about to break out.
Albert's group of six was surrounded, but they did not wait for death and tried their best to break out.
Their individual strength was outstanding, but the dozens of Calamity Grade Supers closed the gap, and the six of them were in a dangerous situation.
Such a situation could only be dealt with by a Beyond Grade A Super. Although they were stronger, they were still Grade A Supers and had not reached the point of a qualitative change.
Rumble!
Dozens of Calamity Grade Supers fought fiercely, and the scene was extremely intense. The battlefield spanned hundreds of kilometers, and the ground cracked. The ground was shaken, and all kinds of abilities appeared one after another. The terrain was greatly changed, and magma formed from melted rocks, stone powder frozen into powder, and soil with crystals formed from burning.
According to Han Xiao's intelligence, a few Mages were watching Eliot at all times. The moment he showed any signs of casting a teleportation spell, they would immediately use Counterspell, Elemental Disruption, and other techniques to stop him.
Eliot was firmly entangled. He was both shocked and angry, but he had nowhere to run.
He had used teleportation to escape Han Xiao's' ambush 'not long ago, and now it was too late for regrets. He had clearly been targeted.
Among the six of them, Albert was the strongest. He was a Psychic, and his surging psychic energy covered the entire battlefield. He had held back many people by himself, wanting to create an opportunity for Eliot to cast his spell. However, all of his efforts had failed.
The number of people Black Star had mobilized far exceeded his expectations. Albert was filled with despair. Just the dozens of Calamity Grade Supers were enough to deal with them, and there were thousands of battleships in the sky with the Beyond Grade A Dragon Emperor on the side …
Such a force was enough to challenge the regular army of a Star Cluster Civilization!
He knew that Black Star was a dangerous person, but he did not expect him to be this terrifying!
On the spaceship, the players brought by Han Xiao were extremely excited and were having a good time fighting.
Dozens of Grade A Supers fighting together, such an earth-shattering scene was something they had never seen before. Only the video of the Dragon Emperor smashing the mothership in the previous version could compare to this. In terms of excitement, the scene in front of them was even better.
The players were looking down from a bird's eye view, so the battle on the surface was clearly visible. They could not wait to record it and were so excited that their bladder tightened. They all felt that this video would very likely become the most shocking video on the forums.
On the way here, the group of players found out that it was Han Xiao who had directed this scene. The faction leader had made a big move again. They felt like they were watching the cutscenes of the story.
Han Xiao watched coldly from the side. With so many helpers, there was no need for him to participate in the battle. If he damaged the machine, he would have to repair it.
There was no need for him to make a move. It was a one-sided situation.
As for the second round of the quest reward, he originally wanted to collect it after he finished touching Fu Ding. However, he felt that attacking the headquarters could become the third round of the quest, so he collected the second round of the quest early. He wanted to refresh the next round of the quest … However, the third round of the quest did not appear. It was still in a state of not being refreshed. Attacking the headquarters was not a requirement of the quest.
Han Xiao was not surprised. The quest requirement was not something he could decide. Even if this was not a quest, he would still attack the headquarters. The fact that the third round of the quest had not appeared meant that there were more distant enemies. He had to find out the true origin of this faction.
Without relying on Fu Ding's luck, the abilities drawn from the second round of the quest were very ordinary. In the end, Han Xiao chose one of Adrian's normal abilities, [Steel Bone]. Its effect was + 30 Strength and + 20 Endurance. This was the most practical of the five abilities drawn. His HP increased by more than 3,000 points.
Bang! Bang!
The chaotic battle was one-sided from the beginning to the end. It lasted for a while before it ended. Albert and the other five's resistance was futile. They could not escape at all. They were brutally beaten up and captured without any accidents.
After subduing the six, the factions sent people to the prison to look for the missing high-ranking officers.
Albert and the other five were covered in wounds. When they were brought in front of Han Xiao, they all took off their masks, revealing angry and unwilling faces. There was still shock in their eyes, as if they could not believe that they had fallen so easily in the hands of Black Star.
Black Star had wiped out all of them with a flip of his hand, and his thunderous counterattack had directly destroyed their headquarters. The six of them could not accept this, and their hearts were in turmoil.
Han Xiao glanced at them and nodded.
He had finally caught all of them in one fell swoop. His goal had been achieved.
"Who are you people?"
Albert remained silent and stared at Han Xiao.
"Not answering? Then I'll ask you another question. " Han Xiao took out the hunting list and coldly said, "Who ordered you to capture the strong people all over the Shattered Star Ring? Where did this list come from?"
Albert was shocked, his face full of astonishment. "How did you get this list?!"
"Do you really think I don't know? I've known about your existence for a long time. Who's the mastermind? "
Disbelief appeared in Shana's eyes. She had thought that her failure had alerted the enemy, but it turned out that Black Star had known about them for a long time. Where did his intelligence come from?
Albert remained silent, as if he had made up his mind not to betray the mastermind.
Han Xiao stood with his arms crossed and snorted. "Now that you're in my hands, do you think you can keep quiet? I have plenty of ways to make you talk."
Behind Han Xiao stood the Calamity Grade Supers of the various organizations. They would not let go of the mastermind and would not give up. If Albert and the others did not speak, they would obviously be tortured very badly. These organizations would think of ways to dig out information from their mouths.
Albert glanced at these people and slowly said, "We're going to die anyway. It doesn't matter if we talk or not, unless you can let us live."
"You have no right to negotiate," Han Xiao said. "I can only guarantee that you won't be tortured."
"… Okay, I'll tell you." Albert seemed to have made up his mind and said with a deep voice, "The Klent Kingdom ordered us to do this."
Han Xiao frowned.
"I want evidence."
"I can prove our relationship with Klent," Albert said slowly. "Our intelligence came from an intelligence organization under the Bloodshed Land. The hunting list was secretly given to us by the upper echelons of Klent. They want to make the Shattered Star Ring more chaotic, so they hired us to eliminate their enemies and capture the strong …"
No, it's not Klent.
Han Xiao frowned even more. It did not sound wrong, and everything could be connected. However, the mission introduction had already reminded him that the truth was definitely not that simple.
He felt that Klent was most likely not the mastermind behind this mysterious organization. There were contradictions in their actions and motives. Albert might have purposely pushed the blame to Klent.
Albert had no choice but to reveal some information. It was very likely that he wanted to cover up the real mastermind and use lies to replace the truth, making Klent the scapegoat.
As for why he chose Klent, it might be that Klent was really related to this mysterious organization, or it might be because Klent was the best scapegoat in the Shattered Star Ring.
Han Xiao stared at Albert's eyes, but he could not see anything, only calmness. He narrowed his eyes but did not pursue the matter. He suddenly smiled.
"I see. Klent is the mastermind. I believe you."
"That's right. I can provide any evidence you want. I hope you can keep your promise and not torture me." Albert insisted that it was Klent.
Hearing this, the envoys of the various forces became extremely hostile toward Klent, and they were furious.
"Is Klent crazy? How dare they do such a thing! Do they think we're easy to bully? "
After Klent joined the Crimson Dynasty, they became more and more arrogant. Furthermore, many organizations knew that Klent was very ambitious, so they believed most of the 'truth' that Albert told them.
The eyes of the emissaries of the Amethyst Civilization sparkled, and they were secretly overjoyed. If they could make Klent the scapegoat, they would be willing to believe it regardless of whether it was the truth or not. This would push these organizations to the opposite side of Klent. The enemy of my enemy is my ally.
Albert and the others obviously wanted to hide the real mastermind. Han Xiao did not plan to expose them and allowed them to frame Klent.
He could find out the truth in private. After all, these people were in his hands, and he could do whatever he wanted with them. Making Klent the scapegoat was the most beneficial for him at the moment. This way, he could indirectly increase his allies and share the pressure of the secret war.
With so many organizations knowing this' truth ', the news would definitely spread throughout the entire Shattered Star Ring. By then, Klent's reputation would be greatly affected, and the rumors would become the truth after a long time. They would not be able to get away with this.
Han Xiao originally only wanted these organizations to owe him a favor and establish a cooperative relationship. Making Klent the scapegoat was a complete surprise, and he would not be blamed for it.
At this time, the search team brought back all the prisoners from the prison. With the help of their companions, these unlucky fellows finally got rid of all the shackles on their bodies and were no longer soft-footed shrimps.
"Haha, someone really came to save us!"
"So many people came."
Kernid and the others were overjoyed. They looked around, and many of them saw their own organizations. They quickly returned and chatted with their companions. Very soon, they learned that it was Black Star who had provided the information and saved them.
Everyone came up to Han Xiao one after another to express their gratitude with excitement.
"If it weren't for you, we would be dead."
"Thank you, we owe you a favor. If you need any help in the future, just let us know."
"Black Star, you're my brother from now on."
Han Xiao replied to them one by one with a friendly attitude. Notifications kept popping up on the interface. His relationship with these organizations increased tremendously, jumping straight to 'Friendly'. For people like Kernid who were saved, their Favorability increased the most.
He expressed his intention to maintain cooperation, and the others naturally did not reject. Not to mention this favor, the Black Star Corps itself was an organization worth befriending, and Dragon Emperor Ames was even more powerful. This incident became the bond of cooperation.
After saving these unlucky fellows, Han Xiao's network increased tremendously, and he gained a lot of potential help.
The emissary of the Amethyst Civilization also got what he wanted. Some organizations expressed their willingness to join Section Zero and help Purple Crystal fight against Klent.
This was all thanks to Han Xiao. His Favorability with Purple Crystal increased by 2,000 points, and he was one step closer to exchanging for Cutting-Edge Knowledge.
Han Xiao had another goal. Some of the people who were captured were lone Calamity Grade Supers. After saving them and increasing their Favorability with him, he would have a chance to recruit them.
After asking around, most of the lone Grade A Supers rejected him, expressing that they had no intention of joining any organization. Only one person was willing to join the Black Star Corps, which made Han Xiao overjoyed.
It was not a loss to be able to recruit even one person. He was the only Grade A in the army at the moment, and having one more person would be equivalent to doubling the number of people.
This was the first Grade A Supers that he had recruited.
The person who accepted the invitation looked very depressed and depressed. It was Lagi.
Lagi did not hesitate when accepting the invitation. After being locked up for ten years, he did not have anywhere he wanted to go. Since Han Xiao had saved him, he was willing to follow Han Xiao. After all, to him, wherever he went, he would just rot and grow old.
Han Xiao shook his hand and said warmly, "Welcome to the Black Star Corps. You will definitely be satisfied with the treatment. We will be comrades from now on. What's your name?"
Lagi shook Han Xiao's hand and sighed. "I'm Lagi."
