"Why did you suddenly mention EsGod?"
Han Xiao frowned. Back then, when they were attacked by EsGod's doppelganger, it was Harrofal who fought alongside him. Since Harrofal brought this up again after seven years, something must have happened.
Without any hesitation, Han Xiao sent a message to Harrofal, asking for his opinion.
However, after waiting for a long time, Harrofal did not reply.
Han Xiao suddenly had a bad feeling. He summoned Philip and said with a deep voice, "Search for the keyword 'Harrofal' and filter out the abnormal entries."
Philip hummed and diligently searched online, quickly completing the task.
"Master, hum … a few days ago, many news channels of the Tyla Civilization reported the death of Harrofal."
Died a few days ago?
Han Xiaoxin's heart skipped a beat.
"Show it to me."
Philip heard and played the relevant news. After watching it, Han Xiao finally understood what had happened.
Just a few days ago, Harrofal had been attacked in the Tyla Civilization's official Machinery School and had been kidnapped in front of everyone. The three Calamity Grade Supers working in the school could not stop the kidnappers, and the kidnappers left.
Harrofal's body was only discovered a day later, and the message that Harrofal had left for him was the message he had sent before he died.
The news stated that the Tyla Civilization had confirmed the identity of one of the kidnappers through clues and announced a bounty.
Han Xiao opened the bounty information and saw a picture of a pale man.
"Orozen, Blood Race … a wanted criminal from sixty years ago …" Han Xiao murmured.
He did not know this guy.
However, after connecting the dots with Harrofal's message, the answer was very clear. This guy named Orozen was most likely a subordinate of EsGod.
"Why did they attack Harrofal?" Han Xiao frowned.
The way he saw it, EsGod had only crossed paths with them in the battle seven years ago. Could it be that EsGod was so petty that he sent his subordinates to take revenge on them because his doppelganger was schemed against?
He felt that this was the only reason that made sense.
However, EsGod was a lunatic, and the actions of a lunatic could not be judged by common sense.
Han Xiao did not know if EsGod was aware of his current strength. If EsGod only sent out Calamity Grade subordinates, it would basically be sending him to his death. Since even his doppelganger was defeated by him, EsGod could not count on Calamity Grade subordinates for revenge.
As he thought about it, Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"In that case, this group of people might have a trump card similar to the Dark-star leader that can summon EsGod's doppelganger?"
If that was the case, then it would be a little tricky …
Back then, they had banished EsGod because of the terrain advantage and Harrofal's help. However, they did not have such conditions now.
"My strength is no longer the same as before. I've broken through level 220 and completed my Promotion. My health is almost twice what it was seven years ago. Furthermore, I have the Void Star Pursuer talent, which greatly increases my defense. Even if I face EsGod's doppelganger head-on, I won't be as passive as I was seven years ago … Hmm, if it's just a doppelganger, EsGod might not be able to threaten my life. With Aurora's potion, it's like I have a few more lives …"
Han Xiao's brain quickly analyzed the situation and realized that the situation was not that bad. He heaved a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Version 30 had already started, and he had obtained enough experience from the leeks to complete a transformation. His self-defense ability had increased a lot. If he was still at the strength he was seven years ago, EsGod's revenge would indeed be a threat to him.
After carefully reading Harrofal's death message again, Han Xiao sighed and could only mourn for this old acquaintance who had once fought side by side with him.
At this time, a new mission popped up on the interface.
You have triggered the Grade A Bounty Mission, Harrofal's Revenge.
Mission Introduction: Harrofal was an important member of the Tyla Civilization and was accidentally killed. The murderer caused an extremely negative impact, and the Tyla Civilization has issued a bounty. As long as you can avenge Harrofal, you will receive a huge reward.
Mission Requirements: Capture or Kill Bounty Target Orozen alive.
Reward: 23600 EXP, 800 Enas Bounty, + 1,800 Tyla Civilization Favorability.
Woah, to the players of Version 30, the difficulty of this mission is already beyond their level. No wonder the reward is so generous … Han Xiao was speechless.
The players of Version 30 basically did not have the ability to complete this mission. This was at least two or three versions later.
However, bounty missions were not limited to versions, and many experts had bounties from civilizations or the black market. Even the current players could accept Calamity Grade or even Beyond Grade A bounty missions, but it was impossible to complete them.
For example, Han Xiao himself, many organizations in the Shattered Star Ring had secretly issued a bounty for him on the black market. The total bounty was about 92,000,000 Enas, which was an astronomical bounty that even the super galactic pirates could not match. However, most bounty hunters knew their limits and would not accept such a suicidal mission.
"The request is to avenge Harrofal …"
Han Xiao pondered. "There's no need to waste energy tracking a wanted criminal. This is the job of the Tyla Civilization, and a Star Cluster Civilization has more resources to track the murderer. If I go alone, it will be like finding a needle in a haystack. If EsGod's subordinates want revenge, they will most likely come to me. I'll just wait for them to come."
After pondering for a while, Han Xiao had a plan. He was not prepared to disrupt his rhythm of gaining talents because of this mission.
It was fine if EsGod's subordinates did not come, but if they really came to deal with him, he would not mind getting rid of the mission target. On this point, he was quite confident. After all, the outside world did not know that he had made another breakthrough in his strength. It could be said that the enemy was in the light while he was in the dark.
Based on his experience from seven years ago, his current combat strength could barely handle the pressure from EsGod's doppelganger.
Of course, confidence was one thing, but Han Technician's vigilance would not decrease because of this.
"I still have to be careful, lest I fail miserably …"
…
At the same time, somewhere in the Shattered Star Ring.
Three Arc of Light spaceships were slowly traveling through a meteorite belt in stealth mode. There were traces of battle on the bodies of the spaceships, and the nanomachines were repairing the outer armor.
Inside the main spaceship, Colin, Orozen, and the others were looking at the data records of a wormhole detector. This was an instrument they had obtained from Harrofal, and it contained many years of wormhole research data. One of the data was the data of EsGod's doppelganger falling into the wormhole seven years ago.
"Hmm … the dates match. His Excellency EsGod wants this set of data." Orozen grinned, revealing a few fangs. "The memories I read are indeed correct."
Orozen's Esper Ability was the rare 'Species Enhancement', which strengthened his Race Talent as a Blood Race. He had the ability to suck blood and read the target's memories. This group of people did not kidnap Harrofal to torture him but to let Orozen suck his blood to obtain the information they wanted. The cause of Harrofal's death was being sucked dry.
Colin coldly said, "However, because of your stupidity, the Tyla Civilization discovered your identity. Now, an entire Star Cluster Civilization is chasing after us. After some time, they might find out that we are members of the Fallen Ark. If not for the fact that you are still somewhat useful, I would really want to kill a piece of trash like you."
Orozen did not mind. He leaned against the sofa, crossed his legs, and lazily said, "So what? The Tyla Civilization won't be able to catch up to our spaceship. Furthermore, this is the Shattered Star Ring, not the Central Galaxy ruled by the three Universal Civilizations. Is there a need to be so cautious? Why don't we just have fun? For organizations in such a remote Star Field, even if they know our identity, what can they do? Do they have the ability to go to the Central Galaxy to deal with the Fallen Ark?
Furthermore, even if they really dare to go, they will be crushed to death by His Excellency EsGod. "
Colin snorted coldly. "If there are any accidents, I will make you pay the price."
"Instead of worrying about such a small matter, why don't we send the data back first?" Orozen shrugged and chuckled.
Hearing that, Colin no longer worried about their whereabouts being exposed. Through the ultra-long-distance quantum communication device, he sent the wormhole data back to the Fallen Ark.
This way, the first mission given to them by His Excellency EsGod was completed.
Colin was quite satisfied with his efficiency. They had planned for more than half a month, and they had successfully kidnapped Harrofal and obtained the data immediately. The operation was very smooth.
Since they had the data, there was no need to find trouble with Black Star anymore.
This team had three doppelgangers of EsGod, and they all had different abilities. Colin did not want to waste any of them on Black Star. They were all important trump cards that EsGod had given them to steal the Evolution Cube.
Stealing the Evolution Cube from Sisko was the most important mission of this trip. In comparison, kidnapping Harrofal was not difficult at all.
Colin clapped his hands and said with a deep voice, "The data has been sent back. It's time to get down to business. Sisko is a Beyond Grade A, after all. We need a detailed plan and wait for the right time to act."
The three spaceships turned and headed toward the Star System that Sisko was in.
…
In the desolate universe belt outside the Central Star Sea, the Fallen Ark fleet was resting in a secret location.
In the main ship, an officer woke up the sleeping EsGod.
"Your Excellency EsGod, the team we sent to the Shattered Star Ring has sent back news. They have obtained the data you wanted."
Hearing this, EsGod woke up, and the black vortex under his hood turned into a face. He revealed an inexplicable smile and spoke with a hoarse voice.
"Very good … very good. Let the Research Consortium analyze this set of wormhole data and find the place where the other end of the wormhole was connected to. I want to know the coordinates of that area in the universe."
"Understood."
"Hmm … let me think. That's right, I asked them to bring the Evolution Cube back. Did they succeed?"
"They did not send back any news about this. They should still be on the move."
EsGod nodded slowly and muttered to himself, "I finally found the whereabouts of the Evolution Cube. The Arcane Church has been looking for it for so long, but they will not know that the records of the Evolutionary Civilization have always been in my hands. I am the heir of the Evolution Cube, and it can help me complete a higher level of transformation. Sisko does not have the right to have such a treasure …"
