One day later …
A small, teardrop-shaped spaceship entered the desolate universe belt from the direction of Planet Macipher. It had a peculiar appearance, like a translucent azure bubble. It did not have a metallic texture. This was Psyker's ship.
Sisko maintained his psychic energy, and his white beard moved without wind. In his vision, the coordinates of the Evolution Cube were still moving in the desolate universe belt. With the difference in speed, he would be able to catch up to the target in another ten or so hours.
"I wonder who intercepted my Evolution Cube on the way …"
More than ten hours ago, the coordinates of the Evolution Cube had paused for a period of time. During this time, Sardeem had lost contact with him. Sisko had sent more than ten communication requests, but none of them had been answered.
Obviously, Sardeem had encountered his target and was defeated in the end.
Sisko was getting more and more interested in this mysterious intruder. Firstly, the fact that the target could defeat Sardeem meant that he had the combat strength of an upper Calamity Grade. Secondly, the target's sudden appearance, snatching the Evolution Cube, and running away meant that he had intelligence channels to know what the Evolution Cube looked like after it was shrunk.
Based on these two points, Sisko felt that this intruder could be EsGod's helper, a third party who knew about EsGod's plan through a secret channel, or an unexpected opportunist who found out about the opportunity through some kind of foresight ability. He felt that the latter two were more likely.
"Since he defeated Sardeem, he should be able to get information about me chasing after him. However, he's still running away … He knows that the Evolution Cube belongs to me, but he still doesn't plan to return it to me. Does he want to keep it for himself? Does he think that he can survive in my hands? "
Sisko could not help but shake his head. He gave this intruder a simple definition in his heart.
Another greedy person who valued money more than his life!
This person is too daring. Does he not know the strength of a Beyond Grade A?
Facing the pursuit of a Beyond Grade A, he still wants to keep the Evolution Cube for himself?
Of the four Beyond Grade A bosses in the Shattered Star Ring, only he and the Dragon Emperor kept the lowest profile. Does this guy think that I'm easy to mess with?
As the leader of a cosmic system civilization, Sisko had seen countless strange people, but he had rarely seen such an arrogant person.
Sisko, on the other hand, would not get angry because he was looked down upon. As the leader of a civilization, he had long trained his aura to be calm. He just felt that it was a little funny.
It had been a long time since anyone had looked down on him.
Sisko's thoughts drifted far away. Memories from the distant past were brought up. He still remembered that the deepest impression he had of the humiliation was something that happened hundreds of years ago.
At that time, the Beyond Grade As of the Shattered Star Ring were not the same as they were now. He was still a young man who followed his family financial group to the mother planet of a Star Cluster civilization to manage his business. However, because of his race, he was looked down upon by the arrogant citizens of the Star Cluster civilization.
This was not a personal humiliation but the contempt of an advanced civilization toward a backward civilization. However, it made him feel even more humiliated than when others humiliated him. Looking down on the bloodline that he was so proud of was a stab to the pride of his race.
Even now, Sisko still used this experience to motivate himself. That Star Cluster civilization of the past was now the civilization that could only watch the rise of the Star Pupil Protoss race but could only swallow their pride because of the existence of the Arcane Church.
If not for the fact that he had obtained the Evolution Cube in those ruins, the Star Pupil Protoss race would not have had the glory they had today.
Sisko put away his distracting thoughts. His eyes were firm.
He had to get the Evolution Cube back!
Only then could his race continue to receive the support of the Arcane Church!
…
Central Galaxy, Abyss of Stars, Radiant Federation mother planet, Supreme Court Court.
This was a circular platform with dozens of holographic projections hovering above the platform. They were divided into two distinct factions, sitting opposite each other. On one side was the Elder Delegation of the Radiant Federation's Supreme Court, and on the other side was the emissary group led by the diplomatic ambassador of the Red Empire.
Both sides had been in a meeting for two consecutive days. In the past ten years, similar meetings had been held close to a hundred times, arguing endlessly over the same topic, but there had never been a conclusive result.
However, this time was different.
"Then, on behalf of the Radiant Federation, I announce that this decision has entered the final ruling. The meeting is over." The leader of the Radiant Federation's Supreme Court Elder Committee finalized the final plan, putting half an end to this agenda that had lasted for ten years.
The diplomatic ambassador of the Red Empire nodded solemnly.
This involved the ownership of a large Star Field in the future. Both sides had been arguing for ten years, and diplomatic means were only auxiliary means of negotiation. The real source of the bargaining chip was the countless military demonstrations, threats, temptations, political oppression, and Beyond Grade A deterrence in the past ten years.
The Red Empire had single-handedly caused the Crimson Tide that had swept through more than ten Star Fields for ten years. Today, they had finally obtained the fruits of victory and reached an agreement that satisfied both sides, making the Radiant Federation compromise.
This time, the leader of the Radiant Federation's Supreme Court Elder Committee suddenly spoke.
"What name does the Red Empire plan to give to this newly explored Star Field?"
The diplomatic ambassador of the Red Empire heard this and spoke with a proud tone.
"We have already decided on a name. This new Star Field that will be included in the empire's territory will be called the Flickering World!"
…
Shattered Star Ring, Colton Star Cluster, West Wind Star System, frontline of the secret war.
In the enormous Purple Crystal satellite fortress, the Section Zero alliance army that had just finished a bloody battle was resting. Damaged battleships were sent to the military factory for emergency repairs, and the warriors of the various organizations took the time to rest and enjoy the help of their logistics teams.
The Black Star Corps warriors returned to the army's exclusive supply station in the fortress. The benefits and treatment were obviously much better than the other organizations. The NPCs mixed with the players, collecting resources and repairing equipment at the supply station.
The fortress was crowded like a cafeteria during meal time.
Mad Blade, Furious Sword, Hao Tian, and the others squeezed into the queue, sent their equipment in for repair, and squeezed out again. They were punched a few times by someone in the queue, and they even lost a small portion of their health.
Mad Blade turned around and asked, "What are you guys planning to do later?"
"Recently, the faction store has a discount for knowledges. I plan to learn a few," Maple Moon said.
Hao Tian nodded, indicating that he would do the same.
Mad Blade then looked at Pork Bun, only to see that Pork Bun had a listless look on his face. He could not help but be curious. "What's wrong with you? Why are you so listless?"
Pork Bun sighed. "We've been fighting at the frontline of the secret war for so long, and our Mission Rating has increased by a few levels. But why hasn't Black Star participated in the war in the past few months? I'm lacking material."
Maple Moon also fell into a dilemma. "That's right. The war is so intense, and the high-level combatants of Bloodshed Land have been too arrogant in the past few months. I keep getting killed by their AOE attacks. If the Army Commander was here …"
Li Ge suddenly popped his head out from the side. "I think so too."
Where did you come from?
Everyone turned to look at him. Hao Tian pushed Li Ge back into the crowd.
Mad Blade returned to the topic. "Maybe they're purposely making us do missions. Think about it, if Black Star were here, how would we have so many opportunities to fight? We might even have to watch cutscenes every day."
Pork Bun was furious. "What I want are cutscenes. Otherwise, what kind of material would I have!"
The few of them shook their heads helplessly.
Not only Mad Blade's group, but countless army players were also curious.
As the leader of the faction, Black Star did not participate in the secret war, and there was no news of him in the past few months. It was as though he had disappeared.
What exactly was Black Star doing?
…
"… As I expected, Black Star disappeared for a few months and did not participate in the war during this period. As Purple Crystal lost the deterrence of Black Star, our high-level combatants achieved good results …"
On Planet Heber, Bloodshed Land's Chief of Staff, Joad, was reporting the battle situation to the Tyrant.
The mountain-like Heber sat on his throne and listened to Joad's report silently. He supported his chin with his hand and nodded casually.
Seeing this, Joad excitedly continued. "Klent just sent a new report. Not long ago, the Red Empire and the Radiant Federation finally reached a final agreement. The handover will take a few months, and the Red Empire will then have time to deal with the problems of their allies. When it comes to dealing with the secret war between Klent and Purple Crystal, it should take about half a year …"
"Oh?" Heber raised his voice.
"This means that there's only half a year left until the secret war. It's earlier than we expected." Joad was extremely excited. "We still occupy West Wind, Kaya, Chaida, and other border Star Systems. In half a year, Purple Crystal won't be able to turn the tables. Your Excellency Tyrant, we've already won!"
"… Not bad."
Heber nodded slowly. He thought for a while and suddenly asked, "What's the situation with Black Star?"
"He disappeared for a few months after I ambushed him. I don't know where he is now." Joad stroked his chin and pondered. "However, he has his own channels to know that the negotiations between the Red Empire and the Radiant Federation were successful. I think he should be preparing for his escape now."
"Preparing for his escape?"
"Yes. Black Star probably knows his situation too. He needs to think about his future after the war. He knows that he's no match for you. I think he might escape the Shattered Star Ring temporarily to save his life."
Heber shook his head. "He's not a coward … Hmm, maybe he'll ask the Dragon Emperor or the Amethyst Civilization to stop me."
Joad nodded.
"No matter what, he killed so many of my subordinates. I can't let him think that he doesn't have to pay the price." Heber slowly said, "Klent got what they wanted, and I need someone to show my might to."
…
Hall of Hidden Spells, Magus Palace.
In the hall, Austin sat in midair and talked about magic theories. Mages of different races surrounded him, listening to the Magus Master's lecture attentively.
"… Therefore, according to the errors in the third, seventh, and nineteenth circuits, the thirteenth modified version of the Circuit Cornerstone Theory proposed by the Beyond Grade A 'Holy Sorcerer' Mappeltier hundreds of years ago is flawed. Alright, that's all for today."
The many Magicians bowed and left in a single file. Very soon, the hall became empty. Austin was the only one left.
Austin took a deep breath, took out his communicator from his pocket, and checked the backlog of intelligence.
"Why is it all about celebrities? Tsk, this female celebrity is quite pretty. Hmm, the situation in the Primeval Star River is still grim. Hmm, more than ten civilization ruins have been excavated in the Ancient Star Desert. Sigh, how sad … Hmm, the negotiations between the Red Empire and the Radiant Federation were successful?"
When Austin saw this intelligence, he was suddenly stunned. He recalled the situation of the secret war, and the scene that he had reminded Han Xiao a few months ago appeared in his mind.
Putting down the communicator, Austin rubbed his chin with his small hand.
"The secret war is about to end, and the show is finally about to begin. I wonder what choice Black Star has made. I hope he won't disappoint me …"
…
Outside the Shattered Star Ring, in the desolate universe belt …
Han Xiao landed on a desolate planet with Sardeem. This was an extremely hot planet. The ground was cracked, and blazing flames could be seen from the cracks. Lava flowed on the surface, and volcanoes were erupting all the time. There were large amounts of lava lakes and rivers on the surface.
"Let's choose this place." Han Xiao nodded.
It had been a day since he captured Sardeem. He had already gotten the information from Sardeem and confirmed that Sisko could locate the Evolution Cube.
Therefore, Han Xiao decided to take the initiative to choose the battlefield and prepare to face the incoming Sisko.
Philip counted Sardeem's troops. They had lost hundreds of thousands of mechanical soldiers in the battle, and they had obtained more than two million mechanical soldiers. They had made quite a profit and increased Han Xiao's confidence.
Of course, his biggest source of confidence was not these mechanical troops.
Just a few hours ago, the experience provided by the players had finally filled his level 240 experience slot!
He had descended on this planet to complete the level 240 Promotion that he had been looking forward to.
Han Xiao suppressed his excitement and turned to give orders to the mechanical troops that were escorting Sardeem.
"You guys control him. Don't let him run around."
"Yes, sir." The combat artificial intelligence, Sparda, replied coldly. It controlled the many mechanical troops and aimed their cannons at Sardeem, ready to fire at the slightest movement.
"Wuwuwuwu!"
Sardeem's entire body was bound by electromagnetic chains, and even his mouth was sealed. The Super genes in his body had been temporarily drained by Han Xiao, so he was extremely weak and could not move at all. He could only let out a weak moan from his throat.
Leaving Sardeem behind, Han Xiao flew away alone, crossed thousands of kilometers, and found a random crack in the ground to hide in.
He put away his mechanical suit and walked through the magma with his physical body. With the buff of his talent (Universal Environmental Adaptation), he could resist all kinds of harsh environments. Magma that was thousands of degrees hot was no different from a bath to him. It might even be considered a cold bath.
"I wonder when I can reach the level of Star bathing like the Tyrant … No, why should I compare myself to a Pugilist when I'm a Mechanic?"
Very soon, Han Xiao passed through the underground magma river and flew into an underground cave thousands of meters underground.
"This place should be private enough. It's hard for the energy waves to be transmitted out."
Han Xiao was quite satisfied with this place.
He lowered his head and glanced at his muscular body. The rune circle tattoos that Lagi had drawn made his body look as exquisite as a work of art.
"Tsk tsk, so good-looking … Sigh, I've used the Evolution Cube. I wonder if I'll become a monster like Sisko after advancing to Beyond Grade A."
Han Xiao took off the Evolution Cube, slapped it into the wall, rubbed his hands, and opened the interface.
"… Come!"
Taking a deep breath, Han Xiao put all his experience into leveling up with a serious expression.
Straight to level 240!
…
Floating Dragon Island, main island, Dragon Emperor Palace.
Her long black dress dragged on the ground like a black peacock putting down its tail feathers. Ames walked in the corridor of the palace with Aesop and Vilna beside her.
"Haven't you found them yet?" Ames' tone was unfriendly.
"No …" Vilna's face was filled with fear.
"That b * stard Black Star, where did he take my disciple?" Ames was furious.
A few months ago, Hella and Aurora had left the mountain. She had planned to secretly send people to protect them, but Black Star and Hella had disappeared in the past few months. She could not find them at all.
"You're confused because you're too concerned. There's no need to worry at all. Black Star won't harm the two of them."
Aesop had a helpless expression. It's fine if you learn how to teach your disciple, but at least learn how to be open-minded and irresponsible. How did you become obsessed with your disciple? You weren't like this before.
"Hmm? Do you think I'm an irresponsible teacher like you? "Ames raised her brows and said faintly.
What a huge amount of resentment … Aesop wiped his cold sweat.
"Your Excellency Dragon Emperor, if you want to know the whereabouts of Hella and her sister, can't you just let me ask Black Star?" Vilna could not help but complain.
Ames glared at her and said, "If I had to ask Black Star for everything, why would I form your army?"
Vilna was speechless and could only lower her head.
It should be formed by Black Star … Aesop shook his head helplessly. However, he agreed with Ames' attitude. Floating Dragon still needed to develop its own intelligence network. After all, Black Star might leave one day.
At this moment, Aesop's movements paused and he suddenly stopped.
Ames and Vilna walked a few steps before realizing that Aesop had fallen behind. The two of them turned around in confusion, only to realize that Aesop had closed his eyes and frowned.
"What did you foresee this time?" Ames was a little curious. Aesop's Esper Ability would occasionally trigger automatically and give him some foresight revelations.
Aesop suddenly opened his eyes. His face was full of shock, and his tone was full of surprise.
"The fifth Beyond Grade A in the Shattered Star Ring … is born!"
