The battle to destroy the hyperdrive base station had been going on for more than half a month, and Bloodshed Land seemed to have become wary. The two sides did not have any large scale conflicts for the time being and had been fighting on a small scale. Purple Crystal did not have any new missions for Han Xiao, so he led the fleet around and waited for orders.
During this time, Han Xiao had been studying the spoils of war, which was an armed satellite fortress.
At that time, there had been a total of nine armed satellite fortresses. After destroying the base station, the other armed satellite fortresses had all been captured by the fleet. Han Xiao had also obtained a copy from Morred and brought it back to study.
The blueprint of such a large mechanical satellite was very valuable, and the model was called ['Unyielding Shield' Military Satellite Fortress].
Han Xiao had been slowly deriving the blueprint for the past half a month. Although he lacked the necessary Cutting-Edge Knowledge and could not obtain the complete blueprint, he had obtained some useful technology, such as the stellar-level shield generator used in the hyperdrive base station. This shield structure could also be used in psionic shields.
Although he could not recreate the complete armed satellite fortress, Han Technician had managed to create a scaled-down version of the fortress blueprint. Although it was small in size, its functions were the same as the original, just not as strong.
Armed satellite fortresses were basically strategic equipment and could not be considered as combat weapons between Supers. Han Xiao planned to turn part of the Black Star base on the administrative planets into armed satellite fortresses, which would at least have a certain degree of mobility.
Han Xiao had also obtained the special armor of Bloodshed Land's elite troop class, the Thousand Beast Soldier, and turned it into his own blueprint, making some initial improvements.
…
In the machinery modification room, Han Xiao stood in front of a row of display cabinets and looked at the different mechanical suits in them.
"Thousand Beast Soldier armor, Sunil NCO class, Commander class armor, my Snake mechanical suit, and some standard mechanical suit blueprints … If I combine them all together, I should be able to get some high-quality intermediate mechanical suit blueprints."
Han Xiao stroked his chin and thought to himself.
He planned to create a special armor series that belonged to the Black Star Corps and become the new standard equipment of the army.
This was not a whim, but a plan he had in mind.
Because of these two shocking achievements, his fame in the entire Star Field had skyrocketed, which was beyond his expectations. Originally, Han Xiao thought that without the players around, the Black Star Corps could only seek steady development. However, war was indeed the greatest opportunity. The recent wave of Beyond Grade A seeds made him realize that he had encountered a good opportunity, and some of his development goals could now be put on the agenda.
He had always wanted to change the organization type of the army from a mercenary group to an armed organization like the Bloodshed Land. A set of armor belonging to his faction was equivalent to a uniform … culture. It would help increase the cohesion of the faction and had a better effect than a simple army logo.
However, most of the people who became mercenaries were used to being free and undisciplined. They were all talents in circulation. If they were forced to change their business, they would lose some of the talents who were unwilling to pledge their loyalty. After all, mercenaries never had to worry about their next employer. They would not easily pledge their loyalty to a mercenary group.
However, his recent achievements had given him the image of 'very likely to become a Beyond Grade A'. The upper limit of an armed organization depended on the strength of the leader. The cohesion of a normal Calamity Grade organization and an organization of Beyond Grade A seeds could not be compared at all.
For example, if the Bloodshed Land had developed to its current scale without the Tyrant, it would have been filled with conflicts. Internally, the Calamity Grades were in charge, and there would be internal conflicts and factional struggles. Externally, without a Beyond Grade A leader, no matter how huge the organization was, there would be no one who could control it. There would be no cohesion, and it would be like a plate of loose sand.
Therefore, the leader who could suppress everything would determine the upper limit of an armed organization.
Han Xiao had been like the sun in the sky recently, and his fame had already exceeded the scope of a normal Calamity Grade. Through his connections, he had learned that many intelligence organizations even called him half a Beyond Grade A. There were countless organizations that were optimistic about him becoming a true Beyond Grade A. The galactic organizations were not blind. He had his achievements as evidence, so no one would look down on him for no reason.
The position of the leader of the faction would rise. This way, the attractiveness of the Black Star Corps would change completely. Even the mercenaries knew that following someone who had the potential to become a Beyond Grade A would have a brighter future, and the number of talents lost would be greatly reduced.
Not only that, with his current position, he would even be able to attract more talents.
"Due to my own fame, the influence of the Black Star Corps is also increasing day by day. This is the perfect opportunity to expand on a large scale."
Han Xiaoxin was in a good mood. He had originally wanted to develop his organization with the support of the Amethyst Civilization, but he did not expect to receive such a pleasant surprise. With his own fame, he seemed to be able to complete the organization's development blueprint during the update period.
Strength was indeed the most important thing!
"This expansion is an opportunity to increase the level of the Black Star Corps. There are many goals that need to be completed. The first is to transform the organization, the second is to expand the manpower, the third is to increase the number of armed forces, and the fourth is to become a long-term partner of Purple Crystal … Hmm, as long as I complete the first three, I should be able to complete the fourth goal.
"Of course, the most important thing is still my own strength. After dealing with these trivial matters, I have to find some time to obtain the Silver Legacy blueprints, complete the Class Advancement mission, and complete the level 200 Promotion as soon as possible. The stronger I am, the faster the army will develop."
Han Xiao pondered and quickly made a list of goals in his heart.
Before the battle, he did not expect that he would be able to achieve such a crushing performance and cause such a stir. Now, it seemed that the development plan he had set back then was too conservative.
This wave of discussions about him was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he did not take advantage of this storm, he would not be able to live up to his code name.
Dong dong dong!
At this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door of the modification room.
"Who is it?" Han Xiao came back to his senses, wiped his saliva, and opened the door.
Han Xiao raised his head to look, only to see the three meter tall Harmon standing outside the door.
"Lagi is back. He wants to see you," Harmon said in a muffled voice.
"Yo, I thought he would give me the excuse that the spaceship's hyperdrive engine was broken and drag it out until the end of the war." Han Xiao clicked his tongue in wonder.
Harmon scratched his furry head and let out a long "oh", as if the muscles in his brain could not process the meaning of this sentence.
"Right, why are you the one who came to report? Where's Herlous?" Han Xiao suddenly thought of this.
Usually, as long as Sylvia was not around, Herlous would be his male secretary. He was more efficient and was a reliable adult male.
"He wants me to lie to you and say that he's training." Harmon's tone was straightforward, and the word 'reckless' could be used to describe his aura.
"Hmm …" Han Xiao's mouth twitched, and he was speechless. "Then what is he actually doing?"
"He's playing cards."
Han Xiao facepalmed. Playing cards every day, was this the legendary Hu Shi spirit?
"Okay, I got it. I'll go see Lagi now."
Han Xiao closed the door and walked for a while before he thought of something. He turned around and asked Harmon, "Right, how many years until the tribal chief selection battle?"
Harmon was one of the heirs of the Luhan Beastman Civilization's Rockfall Tribe. His Side Mission was to join his War League and help him become the chief.
If he remembered correctly, this should be a Side Mission in Version 3.0. However, in case there were any changes to the storyline, Han Xiao still wanted to ask.
Hearing this, Harmon counted with his fingers for a while and said hesitantly, "I think there's still eleven years minus three days."
The average lifespan of the Luhan Beastmen was around two hundred and fifty years, which was quite long. The tribal chief selection was a grand event, and the candidates would usually be given more than ten years to form their War League. This was because a single selection would often decide the next chief for the next two hundred years.
Han Xiao had a helpless look on his face. "Fortunately, you have companions. Otherwise, I suspect that you would miss the selection battle and lose your qualifications to become the next chief …"
Harmon glared at him and blew on his lips in dissatisfaction. His thick lips trembled so much that they left afterimages.
"Pfff —"
…
Without appreciating Harmon's ventriloquism, Han Xiao went straight to the bridge and saw Lagi, who had been waiting for a long time. He immediately revealed a smile, walked up, and patted Lagi's shoulder.
"You're back."
"Yes, I didn't die on the way," Lagi muttered. "I feel like I've used up all the luck I have left in my life."
Han Xiao's smile froze.
You're too inauspicious!
No matter when or where, seeing Lagi's thick aura of defeat, Han Xiao felt that it was an eyesore.
"Cough, do you still remember what I said before you left?" Han Xiao said helplessly.
"I remember."
Lagi nodded. "You said that you would cancel my workload and give me a raise."
"No, I didn't. Don't spout nonsense!" Han Xiao gritted his teeth. "I said that when you come back, you will be my vice captain!"
"Oh, then I remembered wrongly." Lagi's expression did not change.
"… Really?"
Han Xiao had a suspicious look on his face. Why do I feel like you did it on purpose?
Hearing this, Lagi's expression became dejected. He muttered to himself, "You actually don't trust me … Sigh, I should have thought about it. A person like me has no credibility."
"That's enough."
Han Xiao had a headache, and his cheeks hurt. He said helplessly, "Since you don't have any objections, then I will announce to the entire army that you are the first vice captain. Oh right, I also plan to announce your past. You were once the Forbidden Sorcerer commander of the Hidden Red Robe Abbey. This will raise your status, and no one will be dissatisfied with you. Do you have a problem with that?"
Lagi nodded, indicating that he did not have any objections. He emphasized, "Don't forget, you promised that my vice captain position is just a title, and my workload will not increase."
Didn't you f * cking remember it very clearly?
Han Xiao wished that he could take out his gun and shoot Lagi. Screw you, screw you!
…
The appointment of the vice captain was quickly sent to the communicators of the hundreds of thousands of official members of the Black Star Corps.
Opening the resume page of the Black Star Army, under the 'Leader' column, there was finally a name for the Vice Captain position that had always been empty — Lagi Schwall.
Lagi had just joined not long ago, so there were still a large number of low to mid-level mercenaries in the entire army who did not know him. They could not help but open Lagi's resume with curiosity, doubt, and surprise, and were shocked.
Not only was this new vice captain a Grade A + Super, but he was also once the Forbidden Sorcerer commander of the Hidden Red Robe Abbey and the fourth disciple of 'Magus' Austin!
Lagi's past was indeed very shocking, and not many outsiders knew about the dispute between Lagi and Austin. In the eyes of everyone, this was a core member of a Beyond Grade A organization jumping ship to the Black Star Corps!
Han Xiao was at the peak of his fame, and his every move attracted the attention of countless people. Not only were the army members shocked, but the various organizations that were paying attention to him were also shocked.
A core member of the Magus Guild had become the vice captain of the Black Star Corps. Was this a collaboration between the strong?
Including the army members, countless people had a subtle change in their perception of the Black Star Corps. Black Star's recent achievements and the momentum of the Black Star Corps' expansion seemed to show an unstoppable rise.
Everyone could see that Black Star was trying to use his skyrocketing influence to support the Black Star Corps, wanting to enter the ranks of the big shots in a Star Field!
A question that followed suddenly attracted the interest of the various organizations.
If Black Star wanted to rise, what would Floating Dragon do?
After all, the Black Star Corps was Floating Dragon's Field Team in name. Now that Black Star had shown the potential of a Beyond Grade A, if he really fulfilled his potential, with the ambition that Black Star had shown, would he continue to be below Ames?
Although it was still unknown whether Black Star could become a Beyond Grade A, his ambition was not so easily retracted. A skyrocketing status would definitely change Black Star's mind, causing his ambition to grow.
Thinking of the various possibilities in the future, countless people were excited.
If the announcement of the vice captain had attracted a lot of attention, then what Han Xiao announced next caused an earthquake.
The Black Star Corps had publicly issued a large-scale recruitment order to the entire Shattered Star Ring!
Han Xiao was prepared to make use of the 'Beyond Grade A seed' to recruit a large number of talents.
He believed that there were plenty of people who were willing to bet that he could become a Beyond Grade A Super.
Joining at this time was more important than joining a ready-made Beyond Grade A organization. It was equivalent to a partner in the early stages of a startup, with the possibility of becoming a core member of a Beyond Grade A organization in the future. Even if they lost the bet, they would only lose some time, and the loss would be within an acceptable range.
This was a huge gamble that reaped huge profits!
Following the call of the Black Star Corps,
There were more than ten Star Cluster regions in the Shattered Star Ring.
Countless strong individuals, countless organizations.
