The Light Fox spaceship headed toward the spaceport of Planet Macipher. Inside the spaceship, Colin was giving orders to his subordinates.
"We will land in an acropolis later. Find a local shipyard immediately and have them tow the spaceship there. Repair it as quickly as possible. Money is not a problem … As for the rest of us, find a hidden place to rest in the acropolis of Planet Macipher first."
Everyone responded sparsely.
Orozen lazily said, "Don't worry, Planet Macipher is a neutral planet. No one will come find trouble with us. The Star Pupil Protoss will not know which direction we are escaping to. There are no pursuers behind us, so we are basically safe. As long as we stay on Planet Macipher for a day or two to repair the spaceship, we can return with the Evolution Cube."
Speaking of the Evolution Cube, Orozen subconsciously looked at the small black cube hanging around Colin's neck, his eyes burning with desire.
Noticing his gaze, Colin yelled, "We will study how to use this thing after we leave the Shattered Star Ring. Don't even think about it now."
With the treasure in hand, everyone was a little envious, but no one had any other thoughts. At most, they just wanted to experience the effects of the Evolution Cube.
While the Evolution Cube was a Universal Treasure, it was not worth betraying EsGod for.
Because EsGod had the information of the Evolutionary Civilization, they knew a thing or two about the effects of the Evolution Cube and would not have any unnecessary expectations for it. Otherwise, with so many Calamity Grades in the Star Pupil Protoss race, there would not be only one Beyond Grade A Super, Sisko.
However, it was true that they could become stronger with the Evolution Cube.
This time, the spaceship entered the spaceport, went through some simple procedures, and landed in one of the acropolis of Planet Macipher.
Once they got off the spaceship, Colin and the others found a shipyard that was not very famous and paid them to repair the spaceship.
The Light Fox spaceship was equipped with a top-notch hyperdrive engine. What would have taken ordinary spaceships a few months only took them a few days. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to travel from the Star Pupil Protoss race's territory to Planet Macipher in just ten days. They insisted on repairing the ship because the speed of the Light Fox Spaceship could greatly reduce the time it took to cross the Star Field. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would absolutely not change the vehicle.
Because they kept running, they did not know if there were any pursuers. However, in their opinion, the high-speed warp jump of the Light Fox spaceship was enough to shake off any pursuers. Perhaps the Star Pupil Protoss did not even know where they were running to. Of course, the connection between Sisko and the Evolution Cube was a secret, and they did not know that their location had been exposed.
As for their identity, they were not worried at all. They had stolen the Evolution Cube through the EsGod doppelganger's teleportation ability, so the Star Pupil Protoss did not know what they looked like.
The only time they were exposed was in the Tyla Civilization, but that was a few months ago and had nothing to do with the theft of the Evolution Cube. No one would link the two incidents together. After all, the Star Pupil Protoss race did not announce that Zhang Jinhua's Evolution Cube had been stolen. Even the news on Planet Avitan was temporarily suppressed by the country and did not cause any waves in the Shattered Star Ring. The secret war continued to dominate the headlines.
Therefore, in the hearts of Colin and the others, reaching Planet Macipher was equivalent to taking one step out of the Shattered Star Ring. They thought that they were completely safe.
Because the spaceship was sent for maintenance, Colin and the others stayed in a galactic hotel in the acropolis.
However, they did not know that they had been targeted the moment they entered Planet Macipher.
…
It had only been half an hour since Sisko's call.
"The Light Fox spaceship has already appeared?"
Sardeem received the news immediately.
All the port entry information of Planet Macipher was under his surveillance. The moment Colin's spaceship entered, he discovered it. Sardeem monitored the actions of Colin and the others.
"They went to Acropolis No. 2 and found a shipyard to repair the spaceship. The people on the spaceship then stayed in a hotel. The location is …"
Security forces, observation satellites, and every camera was connected to the floating city's central control system. The entire planet was under his surveillance. After locking onto the Light Fox spaceship, Sardeem naturally locked onto Colin and the others.
He indeed did not know Colin and the others, but after searching for a while, he found that Orozen was wanted by the Tyla Civilization.
"It's actually a group of wanted criminals? Why is Sisko chasing after them? "
Sardeem could not help but think. "Could it be that he wants to use this as an opportunity to establish a friendly relationship between the Star Pupil Protoss race and the Tyla Civilization? From Sisko's standpoint, it's possible for him to do so. However, for him to do it personally … maybe he wants to magnify the impact of this matter? "
He could not help but let his imagination run wild. Due to the lack of information, he naturally did not know about the theft of the Evolution Cube.
Furthermore, due to his preconceived notions, Sardeem would not associate the small black cube around Colin's neck with the 'huge' Star Pupil Protoss national treasure, the Evolution Cube.
"Sisko only told me to stall them. Hmm, so if it's not necessary, I don't have to do anything to them."
Sardeem pondered for a while and gave up on the idea of probing them personally for fear of alerting them.
He changed his method and gave a new order to his mechanical security forces through the floating city's control center. He secretly increased the patrol density around where Colin and the others were staying, which was equivalent to placing more spies and increasing the surveillance.
"Right …"
Sardeem thought of something else. He called the shipyard that had taken over the repair work of the Light Fox spaceship and ordered them to slack off and do something to the spaceship.
Although this shipyard was not his, with his position on Planet Macipher, he still had this bit of authority.
"That's about it. Now, I just have to slowly monitor them …"
Sardeem gave a new order to the floating city's control center. The moment Colin and the others made any movements, they were to inform him. He then put this matter aside.
As the owner of the planet, he was very busy every day and could not keep an eye on the monitor all the time.
…
After parting with Sardeem on bad terms, Han Xiao realized that no one had chased him away. He completed his work in the afternoon as usual, but in the evening, he received some bad news.
The Cornerstone Summit Corporation had transferred him away from the Eternal Light project and did not allow him to continue participating in this project. He was no longer required to continue building spaceship parts, and the blueprints in his hands were all taken back.
He had already learned these blueprints, so it did not matter if he handed them back. However, Sardeem's signal was already very clear. He would not give Han Xiao any chance to come into contact with the Eternal Light blueprint.
"Sardeem is starting to be wary of me. If I continue to stay in the corporation, I will only be a coolie in the future and will not be involved in important projects."
Han Xiao shook his head.
"I've already gotten the talent. There's no need to continue staying on Planet Macipher. I can escape after getting the Eternal Light blueprint …"
Although Sardeem had increased his vigilance against him, Han Xiao already had some idea of how to steal the final core component blueprint of Eternal Light.
Speaking of which, this was the clue that Sardeem had given him.
Originally, Han Xiao could not find where the core component blueprint was hidden in the Cornerstone Summit Corporation's database, which was a bit of a stalemate. However, Sardeem had taken the initiative to reveal it today, which gave him a new target.
It turned out that Sardeem was the actual owner of the Eternal Light blueprint.
This meant that he definitely had the Eternal Light blueprint at home, so he did not have to do anything to the Cornerstone Summit Corporation anymore.
Meanwhile, Sardeem's home was the majestic floating city base above Planet Macipher.
Han Xiao's goal was to green … cough, hack into Sardeem's floating city!
"Sardeem doesn't know my true strength, and I don't know if he'll regret revealing his strength to me today … Oh, I almost forgot. He definitely won't regret it because he won't know that I hacked into his floating city."
If not for the fact that he was working for the Cornerstone Summit Corporation for his talent, he would not have caught Sardeem's attention. If he had not caught Sardeem's attention, he would not have been recruited. If he had not been recruited, he would not have known that Sardeem was the real owner of the Eternal Light blueprint.
It could be said that Sardeem had personally pointed him in the right direction.
Han Xiao chuckled in his mind.
The floating city was the base of a Grade A + Armed Grade Mechanic, so its AI defense was even stronger. The Cornerstone Summit Corporation's database could not compare to it at all.
However, he was a Virtual Mechanic whose grade was even higher than Sardeem's. As long as he was prepared properly, it was still possible for him to silently infiltrate the floating city's central control system.
"However, it's best to increase my chances …"
Han Xiao was currently level 221, and he would be able to trigger the [Apostle Mechanic] Class Advancement at level 225. As long as he completed the Class Advancement, his Virtual Technology would become even stronger.
There was an ocean of EXP stored in his Experience Interface. As he did not have anything urgent to do before this, Han Xiao wanted to store up EXP for a breakthrough. Now that he needed it, he did not waste any time.
The night on Planet Macipher was as noisy as day. The galactic travelers were having fun all night, and spaceships with colorful tails flew past the tall buildings. It was as if they painted the night sky with neon lights. This was the life of the galactic residents.
The nightlife there was rich, so no one stopped Han Xiao from sneaking out of the Cornerstone Summit Corporation's dormitory.
He came to the ground port, returned to the boathouse he rented, boarded the spaceship, and walked into the combat training room to avoid attracting attention.
After closing the door of the combat training room, Han Xiao opened the interface. Without hesitation, he used his EXP to level up.
Very soon, he reached level 225 and was stuck on the Class Advancement mission of [Apostle Mechanic].
Han Xiao had spent seven years accumulating Mission Completion Cards, so he naturally had some left. He directly completed the Class Advancement mission.
The next moment, his brain trembled.
