At the border of the Shattered Star Ring, on a certain transit station planet.
This was a retro tavern with an old-fashioned galactic style. Hadavy sat in the corner and silently drank the yellow, high-purity Beast Race cocktail in his glass. There was a mixed-blood Elf Race orchestra performing on the stage, and melodious music surrounded his ears. The surrounding booths were filled with guests of different races, and they were all chatting and laughing with each other.
The atmosphere was relaxed, but Hardaway's face was gloomy.
A few months ago, Joad had used him to plot against Black Star, and Hardaway had ended their partnership in a fit of anger, withdrawing from the secret war.
He had joined the Bloodshed Land at the start to make it easier for him to spar with Black Star and squeeze out his potential through battle. Later on, they had fought dozens of times, and through the friction between them, he could not help but develop feelings for Han Xiao. In his eyes, Black Star was a good opponent worthy of respect.
Hardaway would rather be chased away by Black Star time and time again than use despicable means to plot against him.
After this incident, Hardaway no longer had the face to spar with Han Xiao. He planned to leave the Shattered Star Ring and explore the other Star Fields. It was for this reason that he had come to the border of the Shattered Star Ring.
Just as he was drowning his sorrows in alcohol, a conversation at a table not far away suddenly caught Hadavy's attention.
"Have you guys heard? The fifth Beyond Grade A of the Shattered Star Ring has been born!"
What? A new Beyond Grade A?
He was a Beyond Grade A seed, and his goal had always been to become a true Beyond Grade A, so he was most concerned about this topic.
Hardaway's ears suddenly stood up. With his Calamity Grade senses, the conversation of the guests at the table next to him seemed to have happened right beside his ears.
"So you've heard about it too. I know about Black Star. It seems like there was a report a few years ago saying that he's the most likely person to become a Beyond Grade A Super in the Shattered Star Ring. At that time, I thought it was just flattery, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"He's the leader of the Black Star Corps. You guys know the Black Star Corps, right? It's the famous armed force in the Colton Star Cluster. I have a merchant friend, and his merchant ship was once robbed by rogues. He asked the Mercenary League for help, and they sent the mercenaries of the Black Star Corps to solve the problem. The mercenaries of this organization are very passionate, reliable, and have a good reputation."
"Hasn't he been quiet for the past few years? I heard that the rumors of him becoming a Beyond Grade A Super are just rumors," another person asked curiously.
"It's not a rumor. Even Star Pupil Sisko admitted that Black Star fought to a draw with him. The evidence is conclusive. To be able to fight against a Beyond Grade A without losing, isn't that the only Beyond Grade A?"
Crack!
Hardaway crushed the glass in his hand, and the wine splashed all over his body. However, he did not seem to have noticed it, and his face was filled with shock.
That Black Star, who had fought with him so many times, had actually become a Beyond Grade A Super first?
Hearing the news that his old rival had surpassed him, Hardaway could not help but feel envious. He had spent decades, but he had not even touched the threshold of Beyond Grade A.
He had already tried his best, but he had still been surpassed. This was a very sour thing. After the shock, Hardaway's heart was filled with bitterness.
"How did he do it? What trick did he use?"
Hardaway's expression changed. He suddenly slammed the table and stood up. The noise attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern.
Ignoring the surprised gazes of others, Hardaway turned around and left with large strides.
At this moment, he made a decision. He would not leave the Shattered Star Ring. He would personally go to the headquarters of the Black Star Corps.
This time, he would not be going as an enemy of the Bloodshed Land but as a private individual.
Perhaps Black Star would not recognize him as an old rival, and perhaps his life would be in danger …
However, the problem of becoming a Beyond Grade A Super had troubled him for many years, so he decided to take this risk. Regardless of whether Black Star would give him face or not, he wanted to seize the opportunity and give it a try.
…
Gelock Star Cluster, Mercenary League headquarters.
This was an enormous space fortress built by Black Star, Sky Ring, Blades, and many other large mercenary groups. All the mercenary groups that had joined the Mercenary League had offices and strongholds there. Around this space fortress were more than twenty armed satellites, which were the branches of the various large mercenary groups. The Black Star Corps' branch was also among them. To all the army members of the Mercenary League, this was equivalent to a second faction headquarters.
The millions of new players that were born on Planet Deirdre had participated in different storylines.
Some chose to take the army transport ships to Colton to participate in the secret war, while others chose to stay in the Gelock Star Cluster and participate in the storyline of the Mercenary League, becoming free galactic mercenaries.
The storyline of the Mercenary League also contained rich rewards. With the background of the Black Star Corps, the army players in the second leek farm had an endless amount of high-quality missions, and their benefits were also the best in the Mercenary League. They fully enjoyed the benefits of having a strong faction.
Over the past few months, the average level of the players in the second leek farm had risen rapidly, gradually approaching level 60. They were also completely familiar with the galaxy environment.
The news of Han Xiao had also spread to the Mercenary League, and the players of the Black Star Corps branch knew about it.
After the news spread, the forums were in an uproar, and the players were in an uproar.
Han Xiao was already a very familiar figure in the eyes of the old players, and the majority of the players acknowledged him as the leader of the faction. They had witnessed his changes from Version 1.0 to Version 3.0. In their eyes, Han Xiao was a legendary figure in the Shattered Star Ring.
At this moment, the legend had turned to a new chapter.
The players who had participated in the secret war were even more shocked. Black Star had disappeared from the battlefield for a few months, and countless people had guessed where Black Star had gone. However, no one had guessed that he would return as a Beyond Grade A Super!
This news flooded the forums and instantly became the hottest topic. The players of the Black Star Corps were extremely excited. As a part of the army, the promotion of their leader made them feel proud.
"What else is there to say? The Army Commander is awesome! Black Star is awesome! "
"The Shattered Star Ring originally only had four Beyond Grade As, and Black Star is the fifth. Does this mean that our army is going to become a Beyond Grade A organization like Bloodshed Land?"
"Of course!"
"We've struck it rich. Our Blue Star's novice guide faction is too awesome. One faction is comparable to all the factions of the players in the other regions. A growth-type faction is too domineering."
"Summer Night Flower, don't pretend to be invisible. Come out and talk!"
"Summer Night Flower, how's life in Bloodshed Land? Come out and share with us. We won't laugh at you, hahaha ~"
"Summer Night Flower, Xia Yiji, please begin your performance."
"Summer …"
The post that Summer Night Flower had made a promise about a few months ago was pushed to the front page. Countless players gloated and tagged him. This kind of face-slapping scene that they loved to see, the players were extremely enthusiastic and participated in it.
Seeing that the crowd was so excited and that Summer Night Flower did not dare to say anything, his heart also turned cold.
What's going on? The script should not be like this!
Compared to the flowers in the summer night, Bun-Hit-Dog was ecstatic.
Originally, Pork Bun had been troubled by the lack of good material in the past few months. Now, he had a pillow to sleep on. Black Star had actually become one of the strongest in the galaxy. There was no better material than this.
He already had an idea. This material could be made into a milestone in the video series about Black Star!
The old players were celebrating on the forums, and many newbies were watching. The newbies of Version 3.0 did not have as deep a relationship with Black Star as the old players, but participating in this wave of discussion allowed them to understand Han Xiao more and have a deeper impression of Han Xiao.
Very soon, the rumors turned into official intelligence and were placed on the tables of the various organizations, causing an even more intense shock at the higher levels.
Different from the galactic residents who were watching the show, the various organizations of the Shattered Star Ring had to consider the impact of the fifth Beyond Grade A on the structure of the Star Field and how they should deal with their relationship with Black Star.
…
Planet Heber.
Joad hurriedly finished reading the intelligence and stood up with a face of disbelief.
"Black Star has become a Beyond Grade A? How is this possible? Didn't I already … "
For a moment, his mind was in a mess. He originally thought that his methods would force Black Star to leave the battlefield, but he suddenly became a Beyond Grade A Super.
His entire plan was messed up!
Joad hurriedly went to the Tyrant's palace and looked up at the mountain-like Tyrant. Just as he was about to report the situation, Heber spoke first.
"I already know about this. Klent just contacted me. They're panicking and are sending intelligence personnel to investigate the authenticity of this news. They also informed me to be prepared at any time."
Heber's tone sounded a little happy.
Joad heard this and forced himself to calm down. "Then, what should I do?"
"You don't have to do anything." Heber slowly said, "Wait for Black Star or Purple Crystal to personally admit that he's a Beyond Grade A. Then, the rest will be my business."
Joad could not help but gulp. His Excellency Tyrant … is about to make a move!
Heber shook his head and told Joad to leave. He was the only one left in the palace.
Beep beep …
At this time, his communicator rang.
Heber glanced at it and narrowed his eyes.
"Sisko? We haven't contacted each other in a long time. Why is this guy looking for me? "
…
In a certain area of the Shattered Star Ring, the last Light Fox spaceship was escaping. This group of people was the last batch of EsGod's subordinates who had survived the theft of the Evolution Cube.
"We've lost contact with Orozen and the others. We don't know where the Evolution Cube went. What should we do?"
"They should be dead. Black Star became a Beyond Grade A and fought with Sisko. The Evolution Cube might be in his hands."
"Let's report to His Excellency EsGod as soon as possible. We failed."
…
Quantum communication made the transmission of news much more efficient than the galactic residents. The news quickly spread to all levels and regions, and more and more people learned of this news.
The entire Shattered Star Ring was shaken!
As long as a new Beyond Grade A was born, it would definitely be the headline of this Star Field for a period of time.
Every Beyond Grade A was once the focus of the world, becoming one of the iconic figures that represented a Star Field in the eyes of others.
Now, it was Han Xiao's turn to enjoy such treatment.
All eyes in the Shattered Star Ring were focused on the Black Star Corps. After all, rumors were just rumors. Everyone was waiting for the new Beyond Grade A to announce his status to the entire Star Field and for him to confirm it personally.
However, no matter what the rumors were, Black Star did not appear in person. The Black Star Corps also did not make a positive statement. All the galactic media that heard the news were blocked outside the Black Star Corps headquarters. Even their ally, the Amethyst Civilization, was strangely silent.
The more this was the case, the more impatient the various organizations were. They desperately wanted to confirm Black Star's strength.
Countless people were waiting to see what would happen next.
At the same time, Han Xiao and the others had quietly returned to the Black Star Corps and gathered all the officers in private.
