The news spread extremely quickly in the galactic society, and such explosive news spread throughout the various Star Fields. Every player now had a communicator, so they did not miss this piece of news.
At this time, in the Shattered Star Ring section of the forums, many army players were excitedly discussing this matter.
After experiencing three versions, the players were already familiar with the whereabouts of NPCs. Other than functional characters such as merchants, many characters would not stay in the same place all the time. Sometimes, when the players came into contact with a character and returned after a period of time, that character might have gone somewhere else.
Although it was not convenient at times, most players still liked this feature. Every character had their own things to do, and it made them feel very real.
As the Black Star Corps expanded, Han Xiao reduced his daily contact with the players. From Version 2.0 onwards, he had established the identity of the faction leader in the hearts of the players. Until now, the army players were already used to the mysterious faction leader. They were used to not seeing the Army Commander for a period of time, but one day, they suddenly found out that he had made big news.
Discussing the deeds of the Army Commander had also become one of the fun for the army players.
Many players posted on the forums, discussing the fall of EsGod. At this stage, the level of the players was too far away from EsGod. EsGod was a character in the middle and late versions, and he had not interacted with the players on a large scale yet. To most of the players in the Star Fields, they only knew that EsGod's background was extremely powerful and that he was a proper villain.
Only the players in the three Star Fields in the Central Galaxy knew more about EsGod. A small number of players who had awakened the Chaotic Evil attribute did not do any storyline missions. They burned, killed, and looted, turning themselves into wanted criminals and running to the desolate universe belt to join the Fallen Ark. However, they did not have the qualifications to meet EsGod and only came into contact with the tip of the iceberg.
Because their understanding of EsGod was limited, the fall of EsGod did not have a deep impact on the players. Its impact was not even comparable to the battle of Planet Lighthouse. After all, Planet Lighthouse involved the two civilizations that ruled the universe and was the final faction in the eyes of the players.
As for the fall of EsGod, most of the players did not personally experience it and did not know the significance of this matter. In their eyes, it was just an unknown powerful Beyond Grade A being captured by the three Universal Civilizations. Other than that, they did not feel anything.
The replies that Han Xiao saw were basically all routine complaints about him as the leader of the faction.
"The Legion Commander went to stir up trouble again. He's so free."
"Sigh, I also want to go to the Central Galaxy to take a look. That damn contractor left us to work in the Shattered Star Ring and went out to have fun by himself."
"By the way, could this incident be a new storyline?"
"It doesn't seem like it. I feel like this is a supplement to the Planet Lighthouse battle. EsGod participated in the attack back then and was captured by the three Universal Civilizations. Since no players participated in this event, this should be the background story."
"Trash game, full of CG (funny)."
"Ah, I'm going to die if I don't watch the cutscenes."
"I'm EsGod. I was caught by the three Universal Civilizations yesterday and need 5,000 Enas to bail me out. Please lend me some money. When I get out, I'll take you flying. My account number is 480xxx …"
"Motherf * cker, I'm a player who joined the Fallen Ark. Your faction leader kidnapped my boss. You guys from the Black Star Corps will eat sh * t!"
"Get out of here, you from the Central Galaxy!"
"The Constellation Corridor trembles."
The players' discussions were quite joyful, and Han Xiao had a smile on his face.
While scrolling through the posts of the idiotic players, Han Xiao noticed that a post was suddenly pushed to the top. The title was' The Meaning of EsGod's Fall ', and its popularity was rapidly increasing.
Opening the post, the ID of the player who posted it appeared. It was called [Army Commander's PC].
"… Crazy!"
Han Xiao's mouth twitched.
Being crazy was indeed the strength of the players. He was ashamed of his inferiority.
After taking a deep breath, Han Xiao looked at the content.
"Brothers of the army, it seems like no one cares about EsGod's fall. I was the same at first, but today, I encountered a magical thing that made me realize that this incident has a special meaning.
"The situation is like this. I took a small mercenary mission a while ago and acted as a temporary guard for a long-distance travel ship. I was only responsible for escorting them through the Giberian Star System. As you know, the Galactic Travel Agencies love to hire people from the Black Star Corps the most. As long as there are members of the army on board, most galactic pirates will not take the initiative to attack.
"There's nothing much to say about the process. The journey was very easy. I just browsed through the forums and arrived at my destination. After settling the payment, I disembarked at the dock. However, something unexpected happened. A few passengers from other star regions stopped me and gave me a few things. They asked me to pass them to the Army Commander. [Picture] [Picture] [Picture]
As shown in the picture, these items were not valuable. They were just some simple handmade products. The item description said, "This is a gift filled with gratitude," so its nature should be similar to that of a silk banner. The interface also triggered the corresponding errand mission (picture).
"I did not communicate with them at all. They were the ones who took the initiative to find me. These passengers said that their civilization was once harmed by EsGod, and many of their people died. They are extremely grateful to Black Star for eliminating EsGod, so they made these gifts to express their gratitude. Seeing that I am a member of the Black Star Corps, they wanted me to pass them to the Army Commander.
"This is just the general idea. During the conversation, these passengers were very enthusiastic, holding my hand, crying and laughing. They kept thanking us, the Black Star Corps. I recorded the entire process, and I suggest everyone take a look. It's very moving.
"Although this is just a small mission, I feel a different meaning from it.
"In the entire universe, how many people were harmed by EsGod is how many people are grateful to the Army Commander! This number is terrifying just thinking about it! "From this episode, I can understand the true meaning of EsGod's fall. This is not an imaginary background story but the dawn of justice for many destroyed races!
"The Army Commander has done a great thing this time. To be honest, looking at the grateful faces of these few NPCs, I feel great.
"Brothers, I'm going to brag first. The Army Commander is awesome!
"PS: In order to express my admiration for the Army Commander, I'll go to the market to buy a name change card and add the word 'big' to my ID!"
Han Xiao scrolled down the post. This post attracted many players, and there were many replies.
"It's okay to add the word 'big'. The OP has been exposed. He's really an anti-fan."
"I suspect you're behind this, but there's no evidence."
"I just watched the recording. You're full of emotions. I'll give you a hundred points."
Many players mocked, but there were also players who agreed with the OP.
"I'm reminded of the Mutation Disaster again. The Army Commander took the initiative to enter the galaxy and bring back reinforcements for the mother planet. He has always been very responsible."
"Indeed. Although the Army Commander was an unscrupulous businessman in the past, he was still reliable in big matters. I still remember his speech. How passionate."
When the players chose a faction, other than benefits, they also needed to match their values. The players did not only do things for practical benefits but also for psychological satisfaction.
Han Xiao's actions had always left a good impression on the players. Many people chose to stay in the Black Star Corps not only for the high benefits but also because they recognized Han Xiao as the leader of their faction.
Now that Black Star had received the gratitude of countless races, the players also felt honored. Looking at the grateful faces of the few passengers in the video, many of them felt a sense of honor and accomplishment.
After reading the post, Han Xiao scratched his head and realized that he had underestimated the influence of this matter.
Just like what was said in the post, there were countless races in the universe that had been trampled on by EsGod. Under the propaganda of the Red Empire, these survivors all treated him as their savior.
This fame was different from his previous fame. Previously, the galactic residents' impression of him was only in terms of strength, status, and so on. They only knew that he was a powerful figure who walked the path of the upper echelons. However, the fall of EsGod brought him the recognition of countless galactic residents.
One of the functions of having the support of the people was to attract more talents to join him. After all, there would always be some people who could not be moved by benefits, and these people were usually talents.
A Universal Legendary Point is indeed not simple. EsGod is really a treasure boy … Han Xiaoxin was overjoyed.
"EsGod has made enemies in the entire universe, and there are countless people who want to take revenge on him. I wonder if those famous NPCs who went against EsGod in the later versions will join me."
Han Xiao stroked his chin and pondered.
…
After flying for a while, the spaceship finally returned to the Black Star Corps headquarters that they had not seen for more than a month and entered the special dock.
The moment Han Xiao walked out of the spaceship, he saw Hella waiting at the dock.
"Yo, you came to pick me up?" Han Xiao greeted with a smile.
"Humph." Hella did not deny it. She flipped the red curly hair that covered one of her eyes and sized up Han Xiao's body casually. "Looks like EsGod didn't cause you much trouble. You didn't lose any parts."
Han Xiao raised his eyebrows and chuckled. "Are you worried about me?"
"This is the responsibility of the captain of the Black Star Guards." Hella was expressionless.
Han Xiao smiled and told Fu Ding and the others to leave. He then turned around and waved at Hella, signaling for her to follow him.
"By the way, I brought you a gift."
"I don't care." Although Hila said that, her body followed behind Han Xiao obediently, unwilling to fall behind even a single step.
The two of them went all the way to the combat training room. Han Xiao closed the door, turned around, and smiled at Hella, who was standing with her arms crossed.
"I got something interesting from EsGod. It seems to be able to strengthen your Esper Ability. You have the potential to become a Beyond Grade A, so this gift can make your path to Beyond Grade A smoother and increase your upper limit."
Hila was passionate about power, and she raised her eyebrows. "Aren't you going to give this to Teacher?"
"Hmm, she probably won't be able to use it." Han Xiao shook his head. "Plus, you're my first choice. I thought of you immediately."
The [Ability Enhancement] EsGod Human Summon Card could only be used three times. Han Xiao had already thought about it when he was on the ship. Hila's Esper Ability potential was extremely high, and she was his confidant, so it was very suitable for her to use it. The sooner Hila became a Beyond Grade A, the more beneficial it would be for him.
"Humph."
Hella's lips curled up into a happy smile, but it disappeared in an instant. She put down her arms and said, "Alright, what do I have to do?"
"Don't move. Let me do it."
Han Xiao activated the [Ability Enhancement] Character Summon Card, and EsGod's shadow flashed behind him. He raised his hand, and dazzling white energy particles floated in his palm.
He walked in front of Hella. He was more than half a head taller than Hella. He lowered his head and pointed at Hella's forehead. This energy flowed into Hella's seven orifices and hovered in her brain.
Hila groaned, her body trembled, and she fainted. Han Xiao was quick to react. He hugged her waist and supported her body.
Using his energy to check Hella's condition, he estimated that she would not wake up anytime soon.
"She actually fainted. I thought it was similar to the Esper Ability Potential Enhancement Fluid."
Han Xiao looked at Hila, who had collapsed in his arms, and shook his head. He exerted strength in his arms and lifted Hila onto his shoulders like he was carrying a sack.
Leaving the training room, Han Xiao came to Hella's room, blacked out the door, and walked in.
The layout of Hella's room was as simple as Han Xiao's. Han Xiao placed Hella on the bed and covered her with a blanket. Just as he was about to leave, he saw three photo frames on the table.
Han Xiao looked at them carefully. The three photos were of Hella and Aurora, Ames, and himself. Other than that, there were no other decorations in the room.
After standing there silently for a while, Han Xiao reached out and flipped the photo of himself and Hella over on the table. He then turned off the lights and walked out of the room.
…
After a long time, Hella slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying in the room, covered with a blanket and dressed neatly.
"He was the one who sent me here, right?"
The drowsiness quickly faded. Hella sat up and rubbed her eyes.
She immediately used her Esper Ability and felt the changes in her ability. Her eyes flashed with emotion.
"It's as magical as the Evolution Cube. It's easier to use my Esper Ability, and the upper limit has also increased … Hmm, I don't know how long I've slept. I'll go find him again."
Hella lifted the blanket and got up. Only then did she find something out of place. One of the three photo frames she had placed on the table was upside down.
Picking up the photo frame again, she found that it was a photo of herself and Han Xiao.
Hella's eyes flickered, and the good mood of her Esper Ability being strengthened disappeared.
"… Humph!"
