The spaceship entered the private port of the army headquarters and slid into Han Xiao's personal port. This port was not open to ordinary army members and was the back door for the upper echelons. It was not as lively as the other dozens of ports. This place was rather quiet and had a solemn atmosphere.
Dozens of upper echelons were gathered at the port. They had been waiting there for a long time with solemn expressions.
Among them, there were many Calamity Grade Supers fighting on the frontlines. Due to the rumors of Han Xiao advancing to the Beyond Grade A realm, the situation of the secret war took a strange turn. The two sides had been fighting for months, but as soon as this news came out, both sides tacitly gathered their troops and reduced the number of battles. Everyone began to observe the situation, and the Black Star Corps was also able to withdraw their officers.
Both sides knew that if both sides had Beyond Grade As, the direction of the war would not be something they could decide.
Although Han Xiao did not appear, the influence of him becoming a Beyond Grade A affected the situation of the secret war.
Chi!
The cabin door opened, and Han Xiao walked out. The gazes of all the officers, including Sylvia, gathered on him. Their eyes were filled with excitement, excitement, joy, and anticipation.
The officers sized up Han Xiao. Although there were no obvious changes in his appearance, everyone could feel a faint pressure. This was a natural suppression that originated from the difference in life form.
Everyone looked at each other with strange expressions. They then looked at Fu Ding behind Han Xiao. Fu Ding smiled and nodded to everyone.
Han Xiao stepped onto the port, glanced at everyone, nodded slightly, and walked forward. The officers made a path for Han Xiao to pass through. They then followed behind him and entered the army.
The group came to the Army Commander's office in the headquarters. Sylvia was the last to enter. After closing the door, Han Xiao then turned to face everyone, nodded, and said, "I know that you're all very curious about whether the rumors outside are true. I've been sending out notices to all of you. Now, I can tell you in person that the rumors are true. I'm already a Beyond Grade A Super."
When the crowd heard Han Xiao's confirmation, their tense faces immediately relaxed. Some of them were ecstatic, while others were envious.
Sylvia and Herlous were the most excited. The two of them were the most loyal to Han Xiao and had long been tied to the Black Star Corps.
Reynold could not wait to ask Han Xiao for advice on mechanical skills. He was very passionate about learning.
Many of the Calamity Grade Supers who had joined a few years ago were overjoyed. Back then, they had joined the Black Star Corps because of Han Xiao's reputation as a Beyond Grade A seed. Their goal was to bet on his potential. If Han Xiao could become a true Beyond Grade A one day, they would become the core members of a Beyond Grade A organization.
Now, it seemed that this group of people had won the gamble. Their future was like a picture scroll that was unfolding, a smooth path.
Vice Captain Lagi shook his head and sighed. "Now that you've become a Beyond Grade A, we will most likely be dragged into the vortex of Beyond Grade A battles in the future. We will encounter stronger and stronger opponents, and I feel that my life is becoming less and less secure. I really want to step down from my position as Vice Captain … Reynold, is the logistics department still lacking people? Is there a more leisurely position? "
Reynold was expressionless. "Sure, I happen to be lacking a high-level Enchantment Engineer. I'll give you a daily salary of 2,000 Enas, and you'll work fifteen hours a day with overtime occasionally. Do you want to give it a try?"
"… Forget it. Vice Captain is more suitable for me. I can get paid without working. How great is that?"
Han Xiao's veins bulged. "Talking about slacking in front of me, do you think I don't exist? By the way, where's Tomar, who I handed to you? How's his learning?"
Lagi's expression became even more worried. This person was filled with negative energy, as though he would squat in the corner and draw circles at any moment.
"Where did you find such a genius? He makes me feel that all my years of learning magic have been wasted. Indeed, I shouldn't have become a Mage back then …"
Alright, go to the side and shut yourself in …
Han Xiao's mouth twitched. He calmed himself down, regained his serious expression, and spoke with a deep voice.
"There are two main reasons why I've gathered everyone here today. The first is to inform you that I've already become a Beyond Grade A Super. I believe I don't need to emphasize the status of a Beyond Grade A Super. Because of this, the business of the Black Star Corps will welcome an opportunity to expand far beyond the past, becoming a true Beyond Grade A organization and fighting against Bloodshed Land."
When it came to serious matters, other than Lagi, who was still mumbling, the expressions of Sylvia and the other officers all became serious.
"This matter should be handled in a high-profile manner and let the entire Star Field remember my existence …" Han Xiao raised a finger and waved it. "However, due to certain reasons, it's not convenient for me to confirm that I've become a Beyond Grade A Super for the time being, and I don't plan to make an announcement within the army immediately. The announcement will have to be delayed for a period of time. However, personally admitting it is just a formality, and some organizations have already confirmed the authenticity of the rumors. Even if I don't make an announcement, they will definitely send various emissaries to contact us.
"Therefore, I need you to conceal it to a certain extent and contact these organizations that are interested in cooperating with us in private. Select the candidates and form a cooperative relationship. This matter involves the scale of our organization after becoming a Beyond Grade A Super, so it's best to do it as soon as possible. As for the specifics, you're all veterans of the army, so you should know."
Everyone nodded.
Wasn't it just a matter of establishing relationships? They had learned it from their Army Commander long ago.
Han Xiao raised a second finger. "The second thing is to give you benefits …"
As he spoke, he took out the Evolution Cube and let it float in midair. He looked around and smiled.
"This is the Evolution Cube. That's right, it's the Universal Treasure in Sisko's hands. Due to some coincidences, I intercepted this item and fought with Sisko. Now, this item is in my hands …" He then briefly explained the use of the Evolution Cube.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned. They were dumbstruck.
The outside world had heard rumors that Black Star and Sisko had fought, and there had always been people guessing why the two of them had fought. The officers of the army were also very curious about this, but they did not expect the reason to be the Evolution Cube!
The Evolution Cube had changed owners?
In the hands of the Black Star Corps?
One of the Calamity Grade officers, Misecech, swallowed his saliva and stuttered, "You … You mean to let us enjoy the effects of the Evolution Cube?"
Han Xiao nodded and smiled. "I have already given it to Fu Ding and the others. Since the cube is in my hands, I will naturally treat it as a benefit for the army. You are all the backbone of the army, and helping you obtain stronger strength is beneficial to the army."
The Calamity Grade officers who had joined later were overjoyed. They did not expect to receive such benefits. For most of the Calamity Grades, any method to increase their strength was something they were extremely passionate about.
Lagi also did not remain silent. He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Han Xiao's hand with a serious expression.
"As your Deputy Commander, I have the duty to remind you that the order of enjoying benefits should be based on the rank of the army. I have sweated and bled for the army, and I am still the Deputy Commander who is only below you. You know what I mean."
Han Xiao shook off his hand and glanced at him from the corner of his eyes. "I admit that you've sweated for the army, but it's hard to say if you've bled before."
Lagi immediately clutched his chest and said with a weak expression, "Actually … I was seriously injured at the frontlines …"
"Go away. You will not lose out on benefits anyway." Han Xiao was not in a good mood and did not want to talk nonsense with him anymore. "You lie down the moment we talk about work, but you jump up and down the moment we talk about benefits. You are really getting more and more cunning."
However, even a salted fish like Lagi, who was not interested in most things, was attracted by the Evolution Cube. It could be seen how tempting the benefits of the Evolution Cube were.
The Evolution Cube was given to the officers for free, and Han Xiao did not intend to hide it from the other army members. He planned to form an alliance with the Red Empire and completely protect the Evolution Cube before opening the usage of the Evolution Cube to the entire army. According to the rank of the army members, as long as they spent enough Merit, they would be able to enjoy the benefits of the Evolution Cube and increase the combat strength of the army members.
This would also attract countless Supers to join the army.
At the same time, this was a new service for the players. The forty percent experience penalty was only used to level up, which was not a big problem for the players. As long as they used the Evolution Cube after reaching the level limit of the version, the experience penalty would be the same as if there was no experience penalty.
Even if the players could not help but use the Evolution Cube before reaching the level limit of the version, it would only benefit Han Xiao. Since there was a penalty for leveling up, the players would be more inclined to use the experience to improve their skills and learn knowledge. This would indirectly stimulate the players' desire to spend, and the experience that the players spent to learn knowledge would eventually flow into his pocket.
It was perfect!
Thinking of this, Han Xiao could not help but smile. Putting away his thoughts, he returned to the topic at hand and said, "That's basically it. I will use the Evolution Cube to help you optimize your genes in a while. Before that, I would like to announce a new personnel appointment."
Hearing this, everyone quietened down.
Han Xiao turned to look at Hella and said, "From today onwards, the Black Star Black Star Guards will be officially established, and Calamity Grades will be selected to join. This will be an elite combat team that will only listen to my orders. They will not hold any other important positions and will have the authority of a senior officer. Hella will be the first captain of the Black Star Guards. Does anyone have any objections?"
Although Beyond Grade As did not need protection, they all had their own elite armed forces under them. For example, Heber's Vanguard Official, Austin's Forbidden Sorcerer, Sisko's Grand Priest, Ames's … er, her Black Star Corps?
Beyond Grade As rarely took action, mainly to intimidate others. Thus, Han Xiao also needed to build an elite armed force to deal with most situations on his behalf. Beyond Grade As had their own Beyond Grade As, facing opponents who were not qualified, it was not suitable for them to personally take action.
Hella took a step forward and looked around at everyone with an expressionless face. "Who agrees? Who disagrees?"
Although Hella had only returned to the army for a few months, most of the old officers knew her and naturally did not have any objections. A portion of the Calamity Grades who joined later also knew that she was the disciple of the Dragon Emperor, so they naturally would not question her ability. No one had any objections.
Seeing this, Hila nodded slowly and returned to Han Xiao's side, not saying a word.
"Fu Ding, are you interested in joining the Black Star Guards?" Han Xiao turned and asked.
Fu Ding's position in the army had always been similar to that of a guest, but after spending a few months together, Han Xiao felt that the relationship between the two of them had warmed up, and he should be able to invite him to become a direct officer.
Fu Ding tilted his head and thought for a while before revealing a warm smile. "Alright."
This guy is finally one of my people … Han Xiao was overjoyed. He then turned to look at the other officers and selected another two Calamity Grade officers to join the Black Star Guards. One of them was Marian, who had joined earlier.
The Black Star Guards now had four people and could be considered barely formed. This was just a prototype, and when the Beyond Grade A level was officially announced, the Black Star Guards would be recruited again.
After talking about official matters, Han Xiao activated the Evolution Cube and performed gene optimization on all the officers at once. As long as the energy output of the Evolution Cube was adjusted, it would be able to optimize many people at the same time.
After completing all this, Han Xiao told everyone to disperse and locked himself in the machinery modification room. He began to build Beyond Grade A combat equipment in seclusion. This was the most important mission at the moment. No matter what, strength was the foundation. The other chores had to be prioritized after recovering his combat strength.
The Mech Legion, Personal Mechanical Suits, firepower weapons, and so on all had to be rebuilt and updated with Beyond Grade A standards.
…
"He's already a Beyond Grade A Super …"
When Aroshia returned to the room, Risda appeared in midair and spoke immediately.
"He already has the ability to save our race. Aroshia, you have to find a time to talk to him."
Aroshia slowly shook her head. "At the very least, we have to wait for him to get through the current crisis. Before the Black Star Corps stabilizes, he won't help. Why don't we wait a little longer?"
"I've already waited for a long time. Thinking about how my compatriots are being oppressed by Manison every day, I don't want to wait a moment longer." Risda was a little dissatisfied. "I can see that Black Star has been holding us back."
Aroshia calmly said, "I don't think that the two of us can make Black Star make up his mind to deal with another Beyond Grade A Super."
She had already recovered her memories, and her past memories had completely merged with the current three personalities. She was still the same her, just not as muddle-headed.
"If you're not willing, I'll find a time to ask him," Risda slowly said. "There will always be a way."
After saying that, Risda cut off the connection and disappeared into thin air.
…
The silence of the Black Star Corps did not cause the popularity of the Star Field to die down. Instead, it became even more mysterious, arousing the curiosity of even more people. Everyone guessed that Black Star's silence definitely had an unspeakable reason. There were many theories, but they all believed that Black Star would not remain silent forever.
As the news continued to spread, the influence of the Star Field became even greater. In unknown places, many things were happening.
Under such circumstances, more than half a month had passed.
Han Xiao ended his seclusion. He had already created the embryonic form of the new army.
