"By the way, the report about the Dark-star leader is out today. Take a look," Reynold suddenly said.
"Take a look."
Han Xiaoxin took out his communicator and surfed the internet.
He had only been in seclusion for a day, but the news about the transfer of the Dark-star leader had spread rapidly. The galactic reporters focused on Klent's suspected collusion with Dark-star and the Fallen Ark.
Klent had been prepared for this and wanted to stop the rumors from spreading. They immediately jumped out to deny it with a firm attitude, saying that this was slander and that Purple Crystal had made it up.
"It's useless to deny it. Purple Crystal definitely has a way to pry open the mouth of the Dark-star leader." Han Xiao chuckled.
Klent's assassination attempts had angered him. Now that he finally had the chance, he was more than happy to create trouble for Klent.
The secret war was in a stalemate, and no one could do anything to the other. Furthermore, they could not harm Klent themselves. However, if they attacked the Dark-star leader, they could hurt Klent politically.
…
In the next half a month, Han Xiao waited for Serbia the Fifth's reply while paying attention to the Dark-star leader incident. Purple Crystal was determined to magnify the impact of this incident and attract the attention of various organizations, causing a commotion in the Star Field.
The crime of funding Dark-star and colluding with the Fallen Ark could be big or small. If it was not exposed, perhaps no one would pursue it. However, it was now a sensitive period with the Crimson Tide. Now that Klent had exposed their weakness, the other Star Cluster Civilizations in the Shattered Star Ring were like sharks that smelled blood. They all wanted to take a bite out of Klent and attack Klent's political power.
Klent's inflated ambition had always made many Star Cluster Civilizations wary. Not only had they joined the Red Empire to take over the Flickering World, but they also did not want to give up their position in the Shattered Star Ring and wanted to expand their territory to two Star Fields. Their appetite was too big.
Therefore, these Star Cluster Civilizations hoped to weaken Klent's political position in the Shattered Star Ring and not let their little scheme go so smoothly.
They could not stop Klent from going to the Flickering World in the future, but they could take the opportunity to weaken their influence in the Shattered Star Ring.
Want to develop in two Star Fields at the same time? You don't look like much, but you sure are dreaming!
Once someone was powerful, the other civilizations would not mind targeting them. Not only were they attacking their competitors, but they were also protecting their own interests.
As the saying went, hit the snake where it hurts the most. Han Xiao's actions hit the nail on the head and gave the other Star Cluster civilizations a good opportunity. Klent was immediately attacked by the other civilizations, creating a huge problem.
Klent hated Han Xiao to the core. This time, Han Xiao had taken on a much weaker opponent, and it had even affected their entire strategy.
However, after so many failed assassinations, Klent could not do anything to Han Xiao. They could only solve this problem from a political perspective.
In the past half a month, Purple Crystal and Klent had been fighting a war of words. One side strongly condemned, and the other side denied.
In a nutshell:
Klent: "You're heartless, cold, and unreasonable!"
Purple Crystal: "You're the heartless one, you're the cold one, you're the unreasonable one!"
This conversation continued on and on.
This incident even involved the Red Empire. The Red Empire sent an emissary to Klent to investigate this matter.
The Red Empire was negotiating with the Radiant Federation about who would control the Flickering World. At this juncture, a scandal of Klent colluding with the Fallen Ark was exposed.
This guy was wanted by all three Universal Civilizations. His identity was sensitive, and Klent was the new underling of the Red Empire. The scandal involved the Red Empire and gave the Radiant Federation a political bargaining chip.
This made the Red Empire very angry. Their attitude was very clear.
What's wrong with you, bro?
Part of this intelligence came from Ralph. He had revealed the inside story of the game to Han Xiao. This day, he called Han Xiao to talk about this matter and revealed the subsequent developments.
"The Red Empire is involved. They have reached an agreement with us. They can make decisions on behalf of Klent and give up some of their rights in the Shattered Star Ring. The condition is that this matter is suppressed as soon as possible."
"All of you agreed?" Han Xiao was curious.
"After all, a Universal Civilization negotiated with them personally, so we did not dare to pursue the matter. However, some civilizations contacted the Radiant Federation privately and hoped that the Radiant Federation would support us. They probably felt that the Radiant Federation was fighting for the Flickering World and would not let go of this opportunity to attack the Red Empire. However, for some reason, the Radiant Federation did not do anything. Thus, we could only stop while we were ahead. "
Han Xiao nodded. This was the tragedy of being an underling. The Red Empire gave up some benefits on behalf of Klent in order to stop their own losses. Of course, the Red Empire was not willing to lose Klent as a chess piece, so they must have promised some other compensation.
Since Klent was after the Flickering World, they could only put their eggs in their pockets and swallow their anger.
"So, this matter is over?"
"More or less. We can't pursue it anymore."
"Then, what price did Klent pay?"
"That's a secret. I don't know either. We and the other Star Cluster civilizations will digest the benefits that Klent gave up."
"Then, the secret war …" Han Xiao raised his brows.
Ralph sighed. "Sigh, we still have to fight. The Red Empire did not talk about the secret war, and the other Star Cluster civilizations immediately stayed out of it after receiving the benefits that Klent gave up. They drew a clear line with us and ended this temporary alliance. Obviously, they want us to continue fighting with Klent and wear each other down. This will be more beneficial to them. "
"There are no eternal friends, only eternal benefits. It's too real." Han Xiao shook his head helplessly. These civilizations all wanted to benefit from the fight between the snipe and the clam.
In the original storyline, at the end of the secret war, the Red Empire only represented Klent at the negotiation table. Now, they had no choice but to enter and clean up Klent's mess. This was caused by him.
This was something that had never happened before, and it would definitely change the direction of the entire storyline.
Han Xiao pondered. He felt that since Klent was taken advantage of, in order to replenish their health, they might put more effort into the secret war and fight more aggressively.
He told this to Ralph, and Ralph smiled strangely.
"Did you know that because of this, Heber is unhappy with Klent?"
Han Xiao's eyes sparkled as he started to imagine.
Originally, the Tyrant was Klent's only Beyond Grade A ally. In the original storyline, Bloodshed Land and Klent were on good terms. Now that Klent and EsGod were flirting with each other and were caught in bed by Heber, it was like the wife finding out about the mistress. How infuriating! I was the one who did it first!
"Looks like the secret war will become even more stalemate. It should last until the start of Version 3.0."
Han Xiao was quite satisfied with this outcome. He had created internal and external problems to make Klent anxious. This was his revenge for Klent's repeated attempts to assassinate him.
You have to pay for what you did!
"There's one more thing. Serbia the Fifth told us that you want to use Rossellin's ability to help Godora resolve the bloodline conflict."
"That's right." Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"This matter is a little sensitive, so he wants to ask Purple Crystal to be the witness and use Purple Crystal's name to carry out this plan. What do you think?"
Han Xiao was stunned for a moment before understanding. Serbia the Fifth had decided to take his suggestion and try to resolve the bloodline conflict.
Serbia the Fifth thought of a better excuse and used Purple Crystal's name to carry out the 'Discrimination Elimination' plan, making it seem like an advanced civilization was helping Godora.
With a Star Cluster Civilization as a shield, the Godoran government would suffer much less criticism, and the citizens would find it easier to accept. After all, the majority of the citizens were all too familiar with their own government. As the saying goes, the difference makes the heart grow fonder. Many people would feel that the interference of an advanced civilization would definitely be more reliable than their own government.
Han Xiao thought for a while, hung up, and dialed Serbia the Fifth's number. The call was picked up immediately. Clearly, Serbia the Fifth had been waiting for a long time.
"Your Excellency Black Star, I'm prepared to use your method, but I hope that this will be carried out in the name of the Amethyst Civilization. Maybe we can't announce that this is your contribution."
Serbia the Fifth went straight to the point. "But I'm willing to pay a higher price privately. What do you think?"
Han Xiao scratched his earlobe and said, "That's fine."
He was mainly doing this to complete the [Bloodline] mission. This fame was not even comparable to his Beyond Grade A seed.
Serbia the Fifth heaved a sigh of relief and explained, "That's great. It's not that I don't trust you, but this is too important. I have to find a gentle way to make more Godora people accept it …"
In fact, this was only one of the reasons. After all, Han Xiao was not an official organization. Serbia the Fifth was still a little worried, so he pulled the Purple Crystal Civilization as a guarantee. However, of course, he would not say this out loud, and the two of them had a tacit understanding.
"Since you've agreed, I'll bring Rossellin over to discuss the specifics."
"Okay, I'll get Nagojin to pick you up. You can come directly to Godora's mother planet."
"… Why is it Nagojin again?" Han Xiao suddenly realized that every time the Godora Civilization interacted with him, they would always send Nagojin to pick him up.
"Er, aren't you guys friends?" Serbia the Fifth was confused but threw this question to the back of his mind. "Anyway, I'll wait for you on the mother planet."
Han Xiao nodded, hung up, and called Rossellin.
"Pack up and get ready to go. I have a job for you."
…
A few days later …
Godora's mother planet …
The spaceship landed at the military dock. Han Xiao walked out of the cabin with Rossellin, and Nagojin led the way in front.
They took the hovering car all the way to the government building. Han Xiao brought them straight to Serbia the Fifth's office.
"You're finally here." Serbia the Fifth had been waiting for a long time and quickly stood up to welcome them.
After a few words of greeting, everyone sat down. Serbia the Fifth sized up Rossellin from time to time.
At this time, Rossellin showed the side of her former pope. She was noble and elegant, and her eyes were calm. Serbia the Fifth could not figure her out. He only felt that this woman had the aura of a big shot and was not simple.
They had worked together for many years and were very familiar with each other. Han Xiao did not beat around the bush and asked directly, "Long story short, what plan do you have?"
At his current level, a Star System Civilization was not as rare as before. He planned to use evil methods to complete the [Bloodline] mission as soon as possible and get the Grade S mission reward.
He still had some time before his holiday, and Klent had an internal conflict. He did not need to join the war for the time being, so he did not want to waste too much time on the [Bloodline] mission. He planned to use the rest of his holiday to do mercenary missions and get more Random Rewards.
Before Version 3.0 arrived, it would be best to save up more Mission Completion Cards.
"Hmm, according to Rossellin's ability, we've prepared a few backup plans …"
