Flickering World, Dawn Star Cluster, dynasty Outpost Planet Lighthouse.
In Base No.4's combat training room, a spar was underway.
Bang!
The mechanical fist collided with the hardened fist, and an obvious shockwave was created.
Hadavy grabbed Psionic Prime's fist and threw him forward, shattering the defense line formed by the mechanical soldiers with a loud thud.
Behind the defensive line, Han Xiao took a step forward and casually shot out a beam of Mechanical Force, pulling Psionic Prime, who was about to fly past him, down to help him stabilize his body.
Immediately after, a flash of lightning appeared in Han Xiao's eyes. At the same time, a psionic barrier appeared on the path Hardaway was charging toward.
The barrier was right in front of him, and Hardaway smashed into it.
Boom!
"Not bad, a good head."
The corners of Han Xiao's mouth curled up, and he clenched his fist. The wall-like psionic barrier instantly shrunk into a ball of light and exploded in front of Hadavy's face. A blue energy light burst out and sent Hadavy flying, crashing into the wall of the training room.
Boom!
The metal plate was bent and broken, and a human-shaped hole appeared on the wall.
The mechanical soldiers around him began to focus their firepower, and psionic beams shot out continuously, gathering in the holes in the wall one after another.
Rumble!
The dazzling light of the explosion turned the room white.
At this time, a red light suddenly shot out from behind Han Xiao, piercing through more than ten mechanical soldiers and shooting toward the back of Han Xiao's head.
Psionic Prime instantly split into his floating cannon form and activated a psionic shield to block Han Xiao's back. The red light hit the blue shield and shattered into pieces.
Han Xiao slowly turned around and looked. Hella was behind him, shooting out death energy time and time again. Facing Han Xiao, she did not dare get close and could only harass him from afar.
In this spar, all the Black Star Guards would challenge Han Xiao together. In order to achieve a good training effect, Han Xiao naturally would not summon all of his mechanical soldiers. He only used a thousand mechanical soldiers and did not use the human wave tactic. He basically relied on all kinds of mechanical equipment to fight.
The training room was now a mess. Almost all of the Black Star Guards had been beaten to the ground. Only Hella and Hardaway were still holding on, and the two of them were also in a very sorry state.
"Come here, little darling." Han Xiao extended his hand toward Hella from afar, and the mechanical components quickly wrapped around his arm. Mechanical Force flashed across the surface of the components, and he clenched his fist tightly. A strong gravitational force was released from the mechanical suit's arm, making a whistling sound.
The mechanical soldiers along the way dodged, and a gap appeared in the defense line. The position of the gap changed as Hella moved.
Hella instantly felt an extremely strong pulling force pulling her toward Han Xiao. Her eyes were bright red, and energy wrapped around her body to resist the pull of the gravitational device. However, her speed was unavoidably reduced.
Seeing that the gravitational device did not work, Han Xiao raised his brows. His body shook, and five powerful traction beam triggers in the shape of suction cups appeared behind his back. They floated behind his head and activated at the same time.
Hum!
The huge gravitational force stacked together, and Hella was instantly pulled over. She gave up on resisting and increased her flying speed, instantly closing in on Han Xiao. She concentrated energy in her leg, and a powerful whip kick was powerful enough to shatter a mountain.
Han Xiao was unmoved, and the latest generation of Battle Tiger mechanical suit instantly appeared on the surface of his body.
Klaala!
The black mechanical suit covered his entire body, and only his head was exposed. Han Xiao bent his arm and used his forearm to meet Hella's whip kick.
Boom!
The long leg wrapped in energy struck the forearm of the mechanical suit. The nanoparticles on the surface of the mechanical suit undulated like waves, diverting the force to the leg and the back.
Boom!
The next moment, a shockwave appeared under Han Xiao's feet. The metal ground was twisted and bent, and the excess force turned into a whistling wave that blew away the surrounding smoke and dust.
After receiving this kick, Han Xiao's raised forearm was like a statue, and it did not move. Although Hella's close combat was not bad, she was not a Pugilist, and her attributes were suppressed. Her close combat did not pose any threat to Han Xiao.
Han Xiao did not stop moving, and the arm that blocked the attack suddenly stretched forward, clasped Hella's neck, and slammed her to the ground with a loud bang.
"Ugh!" Hella fell heavily to the ground. She gritted her teeth and resisted. Her sexy body twisted under Han Xiao's body, but she was like a snake that was tightly clenched, unable to escape from Han Xiao's palm.
At this time, Hella's vision turned black. Han Xiao leaned forward, his face almost touching hers, and a smug look appeared on his face.
"Awkward, I caught you. The battle is over. With your physique, you can't escape from my control."
Hearing this, Hella stopped resisting. She bit her lips and looked at Han Xiao.
Their eyes were less than ten centimeters apart, and their breaths were on each other's face.
Han Xiao's nose twitched, and a delicate fragrance entered his nose. Suddenly, his face became a little strange.
"It smells so good. Did you use perfume? Or is it your body fragrance? "
"… Let go."
"Oh, okay."
Han Xiao let go of his hand, straightened his back, and was about to pull Hella up. However, Hella ignored his hand, got up, and patted the dust off her clothes.
Seeing Hella's expressionless face, Han Xiao shook his head helplessly. After sparring so many times, he knew Hella's personality too well. Even though she knew the difference between them was huge, Hella would still be in a bad mood every time she lost.
The mechanical army also stopped fighting. The crater on the wall had expanded many times. It was dark and bottomless, and the sound of metal pieces being moved could be heard. After a while, Hardaway crawled out of the crater. As he walked toward Han Xiao, he tore off the burnt skin on his body.
The mechanical devices that imprisoned the various Black Star Guards were all retracted, and the various Black Star Guards walked over while rubbing their chests. They were all in a sorry state. Among them, the one with the most decent appearance was Fu Ding. There was only some dust on his body, but there were no injuries. The main reason was that Han Xiao could not bear to hit him. He could not bear to hit this charming face of his.
They were all handsome, so it was only right to give them some special treatment.
"How satisfying." Hardaway grinned, and a satisfied expression appeared on his burnt face.
Han Xiao ignored him, looked at the time, and said, "You guys lasted thirty-seven seconds longer than last time. You've improved."
Even the weakest of these Black Star Guards was an elite Calamity Grade, and it was difficult for them to improve further. Among them, only Hella and Fu Ding had the most significant improvements. The two of them were extremely talented, and they might be able to become Beyond Grade A seeds in twenty to thirty years.
As for breaking through to Beyond Grade A, in Han Xiao's opinion, only Hella, who had proven her strength in his previous life, had a higher chance of doing so. However, she did not slaughter planets like in his previous life, so her improvement speed was not as crazy.
"The training room is too small, and it limits the distance I can move. I'm within the range of the tractor beam. If I'm in an unrestricted environment, I'll be able to last longer. I'll have to pay more attention to this next time …" Hella summarized her experience with a frown.
Just as Han Xiao was about to say something, his communicator rang. He had received a message.
Taking a look, Han Xiao smiled and said, "You guys continue with your training. Tarrokov and the other two are looking for me for a chat."
After staying on Planet Lighthouse for more than half a month, Han Xiao had already gotten familiar with Milizaus. Since he had nothing to do, the chief commander of the exploration army, Tarrokov, would often invite the three of them to have tea and chat to pass the time.
Hearing this, Hella wanted to say something but did not, as though she wanted to continue receiving Han Xiao's training. However, in the end, she still nodded and started training with the Black Star Guards. She then watched Han Xiao leave the training room from the corner of her eyes.
…
Walking in the corridor, Han Xiao entered the quantum network.
"Philip, did the long-range patrol team discover anything today?"
"Reporting to master, no, hum …"
The Arcane Church still did not take any action today … Han Xiao nodded.
Even though he was under the protection of the dynasty, Han Xiao did not lower his guard. During the past half a month on Planet Lighthouse, he had not been idle. Other than building machinery and training the Black Star Guards, he had also sent out long-range mechanical troops to join the patrol team on Planet Lighthouse. They would patrol this sector and report to him every day. As soon as they discovered traces of the Arcane Church, he would be able to receive the news immediately.
The reason Han Xiao stayed on Planet Lighthouse was not only because it was heavily guarded but also because Planet Lighthouse was an outpost of the dynasty and was connected to many stargates. Once the patrol team discovered traces of the enemy, this sector would become a buffer zone. If the enemy was too strong, he would have enough time to retreat through these stargates. Han Xiao would not let himself fall into a dangerous situation so easily. He had plenty of escape routes on Planet Lighthouse.
The past half a month had been peaceful, but Han Xiao had a feeling that a storm was coming. He felt that the Arcane Church did not seem to have given up on the Evolution Cube.
He would occasionally use the Evolution Cube on Milizaus' Armed Dragon Guards, and when he used it, the Spacetime Amber would naturally be removed. Therefore, Psyker should be able to receive intermittent signals during this period, just like a network connection that kept disconnecting and reconnecting.
"The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. The Arcane Church has the initiative, so I can only deal with whatever comes my way."
Han Xiao shook his head and habitually opened the forums to take a look.
The exploration work had been very smooth during this period. Although Ravenlaude had obtained some convenience through the stargate he had built, most of the resource planets along the way had been occupied by the Black Star Corps. Ravenlaude could not snatch territory under the dynasty's nose and could only explore other areas.
The players had been working hard to explore and obtained a large number of mission points. The ordinary players from China, Russia, and Australia did missions together, and their relationship became more harmonious. However, the friction between the three guilds became more and more intense.
This was all because of the competition for resource locations. During this period, the Black Star Corps headquarters had sent a new batch of troops to supplement the exploration team. Many of them were the second batch of players from the Constellation Corridor. The Russian and Australian guilds had decided to temporarily join forces and sent a new batch of guild players back to support the branches in an attempt to break the suppression of the Chinese guilds.
The Russian and Australian branches had more people, and their confidence grew. They were no longer willing to stay in third-rate resource locations and began to try to fight for better ones. As a result, the friction between them and the Chinese guilds increased day by day.
"If this continues, it will probably turn into a large-scale guild war. If these clubs incite the ordinary players in their country, it might even turn into a national war," Han Xiao guessed.
However, this was the internal behavior of the players, and he could not and did not want to stop it. The reason he had allowed the ordinary players of the three countries to befriend each other was to prevent them from being hostile toward each other.
Now, this plan was rather successful. The relationship between the ordinary players was harmonious, and even if they joined the national war to join in the fun, they would still be good friends after the war. After all, most of the players had a characteristic — they could be enemies and friends at the same time.
Han Xiao walked all the way to the commander-in-chief's office and saw Tarrokov, Beyoni, and Milizaus sitting on the sofa. In front of them was a table filled with the dynasty's special drinks … as well as the evil Wayne Cards.
The Wayne Cards were popular in the universe, and even Beyond Grade As had entertainment needs.
"Black Star, it's your turn. Quick, take a seat."
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the three of them turned around. Beyoni even waved his hand.
Han Xiao nodded and sat down beside Milizaus. He took a sip from his cup and smacked his lips.
"Why did you drink mine?" Milizaus said with dissatisfaction.
"You're just an energy avatar, and you don't have a sense of taste. Don't waste good stuff." Han Xiao's expression did not change.
After half a month of interaction, the few of them had become much closer, and he had a better understanding of Milizaus' personality. Although this guy was strong, he did not put on any airs and was easier to get along with than that 'Dark Emperor' Clottey. Compared to the first time they met, Han Xiao's attitude toward Milizaus was much more casual now … although he did not seem to respect him much at the start.
"Sigh, you guys have also been on Planet Lighthouse for almost a month. If not for you guys, I wouldn't be slacking off every day."
Tarrokov sighed. He had always been on Planet Lighthouse and did not have anyone of the same status as him to communicate with. However, Han Xiao and the other two had been on Planet Lighthouse for half a month, and this commander-in-chief finally showed his lazy side.
"Actually, I've always been very curious. What is the relationship between Clottey and Uranril? I feel that it is not as simple as being her bodyguard." Milizaus' tone was curious. "As the leader of the dynasty, you have to have a family. Uranril is a widow, and Clottey is a hardcore supporter of the leader. Could they …"
The marriage laws of the dynasty were monogamous, but Beyoni felt that it had nothing to do with him.
"Tsk tsk, although I admit that I'm a gentle person, I'm still a top military officer of the dynasty. Is it really okay for you to talk about the leader in front of me?" Tarrokov was helpless. "I don't know. Even if I did, I wouldn't tell you."
Milizaus snorted and casually slapped down a Wayne Card. He changed the topic and said, "You lost."
Tarrokov was stunned. He looked at the cards in his hand and asked suspiciously, "Did you use magic to change my cards again?"
"Don't be shameless. Would I do something so lame?" Milizaus was angry.
Actually, you would. I didn't f * cking see this card in your hand just now …
Han Xiao could not help but think of Lagi. Lagi had a famous saying when he was playing cards — only trash would cheat with magic!
From then on, he knew that the only thing that could stop a mage from cheating was a stronger mage …
Among the three of them, one was lazy, one was playing with fire, and one was playing with machines. Obviously, no one could stop a mage from cheating.
Looking at the few of them chatting casually, Han Xiao could not help but feel relaxed.
This is what life is like …
Before he could finish lamenting, there was a sudden change!
"Wu wu wu …"
An ear-piercing alarm sounded without any warning, and the four of them suddenly stopped what they were doing.
Tarrokov's expression immediately turned serious. He stood up and opened the real-time star map to check the situation.
At the same time, Han Xiao also received a long-distance report from Philip.
"Master, Master, Team 025 discovered traces of a large fleet heading toward Planet Lighthouse, hum!"
The image changed. A mysterious fleet entered the security sector of Planet Lighthouse and triggered the alarm.
This fleet was made up of quadrangular pyramid-shaped spaceships. At a glance, there were probably a few million of them!
The mysterious fleet had already engaged the dynasty's patrol fleet in that direction and broke through the defense line. It was obvious that they had the intention of attacking Planet Lighthouse.
Han Xiaoxin's heart sank.
"Arcane Church? They're really here! "
