As expected of a rich guy. So generous!
Han Xiaoxin was overjoyed.
A Universal Civilization would naturally not be stingy with the benefits given to a Beyond Grade A Super. Excluding Ultimate Knowledges, all the Basic Knowledges to Cutting-Edge Knowledges were given to him with a wave of their hand. In his previous life, when Han Xiao was in the Red Empire, he had to constantly complete missions to earn Contribution Points in order to exchange for Knowledges.
After chatting for a while, Han Xiao went to the workshop. Not long after, the information was sent over.
After taking a look, he could not help but be overjoyed.
The four Cutting-Edge Knowledges he had now were [Controllable Annihilation Weapon], [Abnormal State Energy], [Quantum Matrix Thought Field], and [Advanced Space Application].
Zoel sent over the last five Cutting-Edge Knowledges.
[Armed Branch] — [Cutting-Edge Material Science], [Super Composite Mechanical Architecture]
[Energy Branch] — [Beyond Visual Range Energy Transfer], [Activation Theory]
[Control Branch] — [Spacetime Dimension Exploration]
"Now, everything is complete!" Han Xiao was excited.
The Control Branch was his main class. Learning a Cutting-Edge Knowledge only required four Potential Points, while the other two branches required twelve Potential Points each time.
Han Xiao had saved up a large number of Potential Points when he advanced to Beyond Grade A. Although it was not enough to max out these knowledges, it was not a problem for him to learn one level of each of them.
In the later versions of his previous life, the players could only choose to learn one or two Cutting-Edge Knowledges from the other branches. However, Han Xiao was different.
He had a huge amount of EXP to level up his skills, so he could earn several times more Potential Points than the players. It was not impossible for him to learn all the Cutting-Edge Knowledges.
"Heber thought twenty days was short enough. Hehe …"
Han Xiaoxin chuckled to himself.
Compared to other Mechanics, the interface was his biggest advantage. As long as he invested Potential Points, he would be able to learn Knowledges quickly and save a lot of time. He would be able to obtain the greatest amount of growth in the limited time before the battle. When the time came, he would have more trump cards to deal with the Tyrant.
Without hesitation, Han Xiao invested Potential Points and confirmed to learn these five Cutting-Edge Knowledges.
Mechanic Cutting-Edge Knowledge [Spacetime Dimension Exploration] detected. Invest 4 Potential Points to learn it?
Learning, please … 9% … 24% … 57% …
Successfully learned! You have mastered [Spacetime Dimension Exploration]!]
Mechanic Cutting-Edge Knowledge [Cutting-Edge Material Science] detected. Would you like to spend 12 Potential Points to learn it?
[Learning in progress, please do not terminate …]
Successfully learned! You have mastered [Top Material Science]!]
[Detected …]
A huge amount of information flowed into his brain. With Han Xiao's Intelligence attribute, this burden was already very easy.
Countless pieces of machinery knowledge were disassembled, analyzed, and then reassembled into a set of memories that were stored in the memory palace.
After investing 52 Potential Points, he had mastered all five Cutting-Edge Knowledges. Their names appeared on the Class Knowledge Tree on the interface, glowing in orange. On the Class Knowledge Tree, the names of Basic Knowledges were white, Advanced Knowledges were green, Advanced Knowledges were purple, Cutting-Edge Knowledges were orange, and higher Ultimate Knowledges were glowing gold.
At this moment, several notifications popped up on the interface.
The prerequisite has been met. Your skill [Quantum Infinite Distance Transmission Channel] has been activated!
The prerequisite has been met. Your skill [Secondary Dimension Army] has been activated!
The prerequisite has been met. Your skill [Mechanical Force — Emperor's Authority] has been activated!
The names of the three Emperor Mechanic skills turned from gray to green, showing that they were unlocked. Han Xiao could not help but feel happy.
The new knowledges he had mastered had all the prerequisites of these three skills. Only the last skill, [King's Mentor], had not been activated. This skill not only required [Activation Theory] but also an Ultimate Knowledge of a higher level.
Because [King's Mentor] was a long-term nurturing ability, it would not be of much help to the battle in ten days. Han Xiao was not in a hurry and planned to find a chance to unlock it in the future.
"With the Quantum Infinite Distance Transmission Channel, the Mech Legion will be able to engage in long-range combat, and they will be able to enjoy the bonuses of Mechanical Force even without me personally descending. This way, my Mech Legion will have the ability to go on expeditions alone. As for the Secondary Dimension Army, I will be able to eliminate the Army Box jump tactic, greatly increasing the speed of reinforcements. Lastly, the Mechanical Force — Emperor's Authority will provide even greater power to my main body …"
Han Xiao was very satisfied.
The Emperor Mechanic skills were extremely powerful, but the abilities he had obtained were not limited to just these.
You have learned the skill [Activated Mechanical Force]!
You have learned the skill [Advanced Machinery Construction]!
You have learned the skill [Top Material Refining]!
You have learned the skill [Legendary Enhancement]!
You have learned the skill [Machinery Fusion — Bestowal]!
Han Xiao raised his hand and released Mechanical Force. A ball of Mechanical Force condensed in his palm, and its color changed. The blue of the lightning was mixed with a faint golden light, giving off a beautiful bluish-gold color.
This was the effect of [Activated Mechanical Force]. This skill originated from [Activation Theory], and it was a passive ability. Its interface effect was + 150% Machinery Affinity, and when it was maxed out, it would become + 280%. Its introduction was to give the Mechanical Force the activation characteristic. As a result, the appearance of the Mechanical Force changed. The Mechanical Force turned into bluish-gold lightning, which complemented the name of the Emperor Mechanic. Perhaps it was because of the enhancement from the light effect halo, but it looked much better than before.
[Advanced Machinery Construction] was the advanced version of [Basic Machinery Construction]. It greatly increased the speed of machinery construction. As long as there were enough raw materials, he could quickly turn the materials into parts through Mechanical Force and assemble them into machines according to the blueprint. It could be said that even if he did not bring any machines, as long as there was still metal around, he would not lack weapons.
The other effect of this skill was to increase the effect of [Waste Modification]. Originally, it could only restore a broken machine four times, but now, the limit was increased to eight times. The reduction of the performance of the machine each time was reduced from twenty percent to ten percent, and the endurance was doubled.
[Top Material Refining] and [Legendary Enhancement] were both advanced basic skills of a Mechanic. They increased his ability to synthesize new materials and strengthen machinery.
The last skill, [Machinery Fusion — Give], was similar to [King's Mentor]. It also came from the Cutting-Edge Knowledge [Activation Theory] and was also an ability to nurture soldiers.
The effect was to give a mechanical soldier the ability to devour other machines, decompose the target, load the opponent's armor and equipment onto itself, and repair its own hardware or enhance its performance. Generally speaking, this was the evolution and growth mode of mechanical life forms.
However, these two skills did not overlap. The foundation of [King's Mentor] was the activation of Mechanical Force within the machine, and it cultivated energy. [Machinery Fusion — Give] was the fusion of external hardware. To put it simply, [King's Mentor] was equivalent to increasing the 'Energy Bonus' of the mechanical soldier, while [Machinery Fusion — Give] increased the 'Physical Strength' and 'Basic Attributes' of the mechanical soldier.
The two complemented each other, and this was the normal growth channel for the mechanical soldier to become a mechanical life.
"These skills are important for me to increase my combat strength at this stage …" Han Xiao thought to himself.
Due to the ten-month experience penalty from the Evolution Cube, Han Xiao did not plan to waste any extra experience to increase his overall level. He decided to use all the experience to increase the level of his skills and increase his chances of fighting the Tyrant.
After carefully browsing through the new skills and leveling most of them up to the maximum level, Han Xiao closed the interface.
These new Cutting-Edge Knowledges could be used on the Mech Legion. There were still more than ten days left, and his combat strength could still increase to a new peak in the short term.
At this time, the fleet and Floating Dragon were on their way. Han Xiao handed all the matters to his officers and stayed in the machinery workshop, immersing himself in building machines. The others knew that he was preparing for war, and even Ames did not disturb his seclusion.
…
More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of the battle arrived.
The desolate universe belt outside of the West Wind Star System had become extremely lively, and it had long become an endless sea of spaceships.
After twenty days of rushing, countless spaceships had arrived from various nearby regions. They were densely packed and seemed endless.
And in the various star regions, star clusters, star systems, and planets, the number of people watching the broadcast was countless times that of the live audience. When all of them were added together, it was an astronomical number that couldn't be calculated.
This battlefield had become a stage where everyone was paying attention to.
At this time, not a single Beyond Grade A had arrived. Everyone was waiting excitedly for the main character to arrive.
The Bloodshed Land and Section Zero's fleets were still in a standoff. Klent and Purple Crystal had also sent their official fleets to the scene to maintain stability. The atmosphere was on the verge of exploding, and the secret war could turn into an official civilization war at any time. However, the official fleets of both sides were extremely restrained and did not clash.
"There are too many people here …"
In a Star Diamond Grade flagship, Ralph looked at the endless crowd of spaceships through the porthole. Even with his high position and rich experience, facing such a shocking scene, he could not help but feel nervous.
There were probably hundreds of millions of live audience members here!
"If things get chaotic later, we won't be able to maintain order." Ralph was worried. He turned to look at the communicator on the spaceship and asked, "How much longer until Black Star arrives?"
"Just now, the Black Star Corps headquarters sent a message. They said that His Excellency Black Star's troops will be arriving soon."
Ralph's palms were sweaty, and he could not help but imagine what would happen later. He had led the Purple Crystal fleet there not only to support Han Xiao but also to provide support to Black Star when necessary.
It was not easy for them to have a Beyond Grade A ally, and Purple Crystal had already made up their mind to not give up. If the situation was unfavorable, Purple Crystal would not hesitate to help. After all, the secret war had already reached a stalemate, and Purple Crystal was not afraid of flipping the table. Furthermore, the authority to act according to the situation was in the hands of Ralph and a few other senior officers.
At the same time, the Black Star Corps fleet was stationed at the most eye-catching location in Section Zero's camp. Hundreds of thousands of battleships filled the sky, and two to three million players were in some of the battleships, staring at the scene outside the porthole.
"The war is going to start today …"
Mad Blade could not help but clench his fists.
He looked around, and the faces of the players around him were filled with curiosity, anticipation, nervousness, excitement, and so on.
The scale of this event was unprecedented. It was the biggest storyline event in the three versions of Galaxy, and no player was willing to miss it.
In the Bloodshed Land's camp, there was also a group of players present. There were about a thousand of them, and they were the 'Defectors' led by Summer Night Flower. This was what the army players called them on the forums.
Looking at the Black Star Corps fleet in the distance, Summer Night Flower had mixed feelings.
He had once been one of them as well …
The way Summer Night Flower saw it, the battle between the Bloodshed Land and the leader of the Black Star Corps might be the last chance to confirm his guess.
The Mercenary League had also sent people to the scene to watch the battle, occupying a VIP seat with a wide view.
"This is unprecedented. How many years has it been since something like this happened in the Shattered Star Ring?"
In the private chat channel of the Mercenary League, Gureja could not help but sigh. He was the leader of the Sky Ring Army and one of the upper echelons of the Mercenary League.
"I remember that the last time a Beyond Grade A publicly challenged a battle was two hundred and seventy-six years ago, when Austin sparred with someone from the previous generation of the Shattered Star Ring," another Army Commander said.
"Two hundred years ago. Tsk, back then, I was still an officer of the Elf Palace's guerilla army," Underworld Feather casually tossed a piece of dried meat from an unknown creature into her mouth and said while chewing.
"I bet you definitely didn't have such a weird fetish two hundred years ago." Gureja could not help but look at the dried meat in Underworld Feather's hand.
"What weird fetish? I'm a gourmet." Underworld Feather rolled her eyes.
Gureja shook his head and ignored her. "Since Black Star has become a Beyond Grade A, no matter what the result of this battle is, I have to invite him to be the chief director of the Mercenary League. Everyone will have more opportunities to develop under his name."
All the Army Commanders nodded, and no one had any objections.
The Mercenary League was also a well-known large organization in the Shattered Star Ring, and the Black Star Corps was one of the founders. No one minded Black Star becoming the leader of the Mercenary League in name. In fact, the Mercenary League would have a better future with the name of a Beyond Grade A Super.
There were also many organizations like the Mercenary League that had come to support Han Xiao, such as the Star Beast Organization and the various financial groups.
At this moment, under everyone's gazes, a blue whirlpool-like teleportation gate suddenly appeared in the middle of the empty battlefield, expanding rapidly.
"It's finally here!"
Hua!
At this moment, everyone present was in an uproar.
The suppressed excitement in everyone's hearts was instantly ignited!
