The action of disbanding the Six Nations' government was swift and decisive.
Han Xiao's strength, influence, and reputation in Blue Star completely crushed the Six Nations. Even if the officials of the Six Nations were unwilling, they did not have the chance to retaliate. In front of such overwhelming power, they realized that if Black Star wanted to take over Blue Star, it would be a piece of cake. However, he did not do so until now.
If it was in the past, Bennett would not have agreed to this plan, but after this battle, he was willing to take on more responsibility. In his eyes, the future of the entire civilization was more important. The Six Nations were simply too unreliable.
The disbanding of the Six Nations was done peacefully. Both Han Xiao and Bennett did not want a war to break out in Blue Star. The bloody example of the Old Era was right in front of them, so Han Xiao's target was only the government of the Six Nations.
From top to bottom, they would be replaced.
The upper echelons of the Six Nations were arrested, and Bennett's men were stationed in the government. The other officials at all levels were greatly alarmed, but there was little resistance. The declaration of war by the Six Nations had not only caused them to lose the hearts of the people, but also the loyalty of many lower-level officials. The government was not a monolithic block, and every official had their own independent thoughts. In the entire Blue Star, Han Xiao's reputation was better than the Six Nations'.
Bennett removed some of the upper echelons, but kept most of the middle and lower-level officials. The Six Nations had a vast territory, and they needed these original managers to manage everything. Furthermore, the pyramid structure of power would only shake when the bottom was removed. The original political structure was not suitable to be replaced immediately, or else it would cause chaos.
After all, most of the middle and lower-level officials were just trying to make a living. As long as there was no invasion, they did not mind changing their salary.
Even the upper echelons were not of the same mind. Some of them were willing to change their positions and work for Bennett's new government. Gu Hui was one of them. He was extremely disappointed with the original government, and when he saw Han Xiao take over the Six Nations, he was conflicted between patriotism and racial justice. In the end, the latter prevailed.
Since things had already come to this point and could not be changed, the best thing to do was to stay here and contribute to the civilization as a whole. Gu Hui knew very well that Han Xiao was not an ambitious person. It might be a better choice for him to lead Blue Star.
After the dust had settled, Han Xiao announced this to the entire world. Unsurprisingly, this news caused a huge commotion, and the people of the Six Nations were instantly in an uproar.
Although many people were dissatisfied with the declaration of war by the six nations, they did not expect that their own government would be gone in such a short time.
Countless people were worried, worried that another era of chaos was about to begin. However, after some time, they realized that their lives had not changed much. The original territories of the Six Nations were divided into six special zones, and most of the original laws and regulations were retained. Bennett knew that this matter had to be done step by step. This way of transition would reduce the impact and allow the people to slowly get used to the existence of the new government.
Reality was not a fairytale. Even though Han Xiao's image on Planet Aquamarine was like that of a savior, there were still passionate patriots who protested. Every government knew how to cultivate hardcore supporters, but at the same time, there were also those who took advantage of the opportunity to do something. Similar pains would definitely occur when a civilization was unified, but even more people were silent and had mixed feelings.
After all, the Six Nations had launched missiles at Black Star City first, so they had no right to complain about others retaliating.
For the majority of the people, as long as their lives did not change, they would not stand up for the changes in the government. The people of Planet Aquamarine had experienced countless wars and disasters, and they cherished their stable lives even more. Furthermore, many of them were wanderers from the Old Era and were not loyal to the Six Nations. They had a clearer understanding of the changes in the government, and this greatly reduced the resistance. This was also one of the reasons why Han Xiao dared to do this.
Furthermore, since entering the interstellar era, the traditional concepts had been challenged. In the eyes of most people, the boundaries of countries had long been blurred, replaced by the concept of race — as long as they were of the same race, they were on the same side. Whether a country was important or not depended on who it was compared to. The survival of a regime obviously could not be compared to the continuation of an entire race, so most people did not reject Bennett's new government. At the very least, everyone was Blue Star. Furthermore, Bennett had Black Star behind him, so he was much more reliable than the Six Nations.
After the entire civilization was unified, Bennett finally decided on the name of the new regime — the Aquamarine Federation.
Naming a regime after a planet was easier for the people to accept. Although Han Xiao understood the meaning behind this name, he still felt that it was a pain in the ass.
Aquamarine Federation? Why does it sound like a clothing store?
However, no matter what the name of the Blue Star regime was, it would still be his logistics base.
The situation was basically settled, and the problems left behind by the enemy were dealt with. The storm this time finally calmed down.
Taking over the Six Nations brought about a lot of follow-up problems, and Bennett and the others were extremely busy. Han Xiao estimated that it would take a few years for him to digest everything, and Blue Star would also need some time to get over the pain. The benefits of a unified civilization would gradually become apparent over time.
With the matter settled, Han Xiao did not stay any longer and brought Stephanie back to Planet Golden Gate Base No.1.
…
The battle with the Vanguard Official more than a month ago had caused Han Xiao's reputation to skyrocket. This time, Black Star's feat of killing multiple Calamity Grade Supers shocked the entire Star Field.
The Amethyst Civilization did not hide this matter. They believed Han Xiao's words and thought that Stephanie and the others were assassins sent by Klent. They spread the news of Klent's failure to assassinate Han Xiao in order to boost morale and reduce the negative impact of the loss at the frontline.
The people of the Klent Civilization were dumbfounded when the blame fell from the sky.
We do want to kill Black Star, but we haven't done anything yet. When did we send people?
That's right, it must be some other Star Cluster Civilization that sent people to assassinate Black Star. Regardless of whether they succeed or fail, they can push the blame to us!
Klent was furious. F * ck, blame me again? Do these b * tches think I'm the King of Blame?
There will always be people who want to harm me!
Although the two sides were at war, Klent was not willing to be blamed for their failure and publicly announced that it was all fabricated.
Purple Crystal's answer was simple. I won't listen to you. I'll beat you to death!
The two sides were at war, and the government was at war. Many organizations in the Shattered Star Ring were watching the show between Purple Crystal and Klent like spectators.
Han Xiao, who had caused this incident, also received a lot of attention.
Black Star had finally grasped psionic energy, and this made many organizations even more wary. This meant that Black Star's threat had greatly increased!
Killing Calamity Grade Supers consecutively was worthy of his status as a Beyond Grade A seed. This kind of lethality was even more terrifying than just being able to take a beating. All of a sudden, Han Xiao's fame and status in the entire Star Field rose again.
While the other Star Cluster Civilizations were shocked, they also secretly raised Han Xiao's position in the list of Beyond Grade A seeds.
On the way to Base No.1, Han Xiao deeply felt the impact of this matter. His face could be seen everywhere, and when he returned to the base, he realized that the respect and admiration in the eyes of many mercenaries was even stronger.
This trip back to Blue Star took about twenty days, and there were only ten days left of the holiday.
After returning to the base, Han Xiao first checked the operations of the Black Star Corps during this period. More than ten thousand mercenaries in the various training camps had become permanent members, and they had added another hundred battleships.
"My Mech Legion has been greatly depleted. There are still ten days left, and I can replenish them."
After returning to the battlefield after the holiday, Han Xiao decided to make use of the remaining time to build an army. Before that, he had to settle the third round of (Prey) rewards.
Recently, Fu Ding did not go out. Han Xiao found Fu Ding, chatted with him for a while, and then touched Fu Ding a few times. Only then did he let go of Fu Ding, who had a weird expression on his face.
"It feels pretty good …" Chen Xing, who finally came out to get some fresh air, blushed a little and quickly returned control of the body to Fu Ding.
Fu Ding's ability was getting stronger and stronger, and he could already suppress Chen Xing alone. Plus, his relationship with Chen Xing had warmed up, so he would let her come out to get some fresh air from time to time, and Han Xiao happened to bump into her.
However, although the soul was not the same person, the body was still the same.
Third round completed.
Please select the target to draw abilities from …
There were a total of ten enemies, and Han Xiao only took a fancy to the abilities of two of them. One was Stephanie, and the other was that Mechanic.
If he drew from the enemy Mechanic, there was a high chance that he would get a Mechanic talent. Both of them were Mechanics, and their abilities were perfectly compatible.
If he drew from Stephanie, she was different from Shana. Stephanie's Esper Ability was completely incompatible with his, so the effect of her Esper Ability would definitely be weakened. The best result would be to get a Molding Talent, but that could only depend on luck.
After thinking for a few seconds, Han Xiao made a decision.
Mechanic talents were great, but Molding Talents were hard to come by!
What difference was there between a person and a salted fish without dreams?
Bet on it!
You have received: Draw one of Stephanie's abilities (Ability/Talent).

Han Xiao was stunned for a moment before he was overjoyed.
