The sound of mechanical assembly echoed in the private workshop, and the mechanical force flickered like a flexible blue tentacle, manipulating the mechanical arm to create a new emperor mecha.
Han Xiao was attentive, watching the details of the mecha being perfected step by step in his hands.
The last outer armor plate was fitted into the emperor's chest, the panel suddenly dinged, and a prompt popped up.
[You created golden quality equipment (cosmic treasure)]
"Huh..."
Han Xiao's tense expression relaxed, and he slowly exhaled.
This is the second golden-quality emperor mecha. Rao has the successful experience last time, as well as the bonuses of [Artifact of God] and [Cosmic Treasure Maker]. He also tried five times before finally succeeding, but It's a little less than the first failure.
This new emperor mecha, Han Xiao intends to throw it to Hela. Although it is the exclusive equipment of the mechanic, Hela cannot enjoy the bonus, but Han Xiao only needs its directional teleportation function to provide Hela with security.
And two pieces are not enough, Han Xiao has to build a few sets of spare emperors for himself, and maybe prepare a set for Emersy, the amount of engineering is still second, mainly because of the high cost.
A King is equivalent to the cost of the fleet. If it does not reach the golden quality, it will undoubtedly be a loss. He currently cannot guarantee that he will create a Cosmic Treasure-level King every time. It will inevitably waste several times of Inar, even if the Black Star Legion is rich and powerful. Tolerable, this part of the cost also makes him aching.
"Hey, as a mechanic, you can't fail to make money." Han Xiao sighed.
He glanced at the attribute panel, because it was the second time to build an emperor, so the [Artifact of the Gods] did not feedback new divine transformation points, nor did it unlock a new layer of bonuses, but only provided the effect of washing points.
Because it is the same blueprint, the cleaning efficiency this time has dropped, from the first 200 points to 160 points. It's a pity that I didn't get lucky this time, and the hope of the white ticket was lost, but it was washed to the charm attribute, which is not bad.
160 points of free attributes continued to be saved. Han Xiao stuffed the second set of emperors into the maintenance box dedicated to mechas, and found a mechanical guard and sent it to Hela together with the box.
It is worth mentioning that this special mecha maintenance box is also an orange equipment, which can warm the mecha, and it will improve a certain basic attribute of the mecha after a long time. As a peak Transcendent A Grade mechanic, Han Xiao is wearing it now. It's all good stuff.
After finishing all this, Han Xiao rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist. He was not idle at the base camp. In addition to dealing with daily affairs these days, he was soaking in the workshop to repair apostle weapons and build cosmic treasures. It has been liver for many days. .
"Relax and watch people play cards."
Han Xiao knocked on the back, and was about to open the door to go out, when suddenly the communicator rang, indicating that it was a call from a senior official of the Scarlet Empire.
"The Empire is finally willing to call. Is this the final solution to me?"
Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and the communication was connected. A remote projection of a senior official appeared in front of him. This is the person in charge who has been in contact with Transcendent A Grade all the year round, and he is familiar with Han Xiao.
"Your Excellency Black Star." The high-ranking imperial official nodded in greeting and said, "Long time no see."
"Hello." Han Xiao nodded, pretending to ask: "Is there anything you want to do with me?"
"Well, I know that you like to be direct, so you won't waste your time. It is the high-level empire of the empire who is going to release a plan related to you. I want to ask your opinion and discuss it."
"What plan?"
"The Empire intends to temporarily open the purchase rights of evolution totems. It is no longer limited to allies to subscribe, but is freely sold to the whole universe. Because the evolution cube is the source of energy, it is in your hands, so the empire wants to know your attitude." The imperial official smiled.
Han Xiao's heart jumped, and there was a surge of ecstasy.
Although he had guessed this possibility early, he was still very excited at the moment of confirmation.
For a long time, the Scarlet Empire has controlled the sales channels of Evolution Totem, and is not allowed to enter the free market, but can only be sold to allied civilizations. This is an agreement between Han Xiao and the empire. And if the sales restrictions are lifted, then every civilization in the entire universe will become a customer, which will bring immeasurable huge profits.
And this is not a one-shot deal. The evolution totem runs for up to 20 years. After the energy is consumed, it needs to be recharged with the evolution block, just like refueling, so the follow-up maintenance costs are a steady stream of huge benefits, which is completely a cornucopia. super lucrative business opportunities.
The Scarlet Empire is stuck with the public purchase right, just want to control this income, that is, get the energy source evolution block from Han Xiao, and is unwilling to let a non-direct ally control such an important strategic treasure, so The two sides have been wrangling over this issue, and there have been certain cracks in the relationship.
At this time, the empire was willing to open the purchase channel of evolution totem, and finally made a concession and took the initiative to ease the relationship between the two parties. The reason is undoubtedly the influence of the Black Star Conferred God Battle, and it is willing to temporarily hand over huge profits to Han Xiao.
Although excited, Han Xiao still caught a word: "Temporarily open? How long?"
The high-ranking imperial official shook his head, "I don't know that, and there shouldn't be an end date."
In other words, if you do something bad, it could end at any time, right
Han Xiao's heart was clear. The empire's move was both a means of attracting and indirect control. When he was used to the huge profits, or the expanded legion could not be separated from the capital flow brought by this business, the empire would have a handle on it. own new channel. He also understands this. After all, it is a cosmos-level civilization. Never think about letting people bow down. This is completely impossible. People are willing to make concessions, and they are willing to respect you and value you. This is good enough.
"Okay, I have no objection, when will it open?" Han Xiao responded.
"The time has not yet been set. If it is officially implemented, it is estimated that it will take half a year to a year to prepare, but within three days to half a month, a notice of this decree will be issued to the whole universe, so we need to quickly discuss the benefits. Distribution plan." The high-ranking imperial official replied.
Because the previous plan was mainly to deal with empires and allies, there were many discounts, and for the entire universe, whether it was Han Xiao or the empire, they wanted to significantly increase the price to make money from outsiders, so they had to re-formulate the distribution plan.
"Is that so... Then I will let the business team under my command contact you, and try to negotiate a suitable result as soon as possible." Han Xiao thought for a while and said.
The Germination Consortium affiliated to the Legion has raised a group of business negotiation experts, which can come in handy in this matter, and Interpas, as an executive of the consortium, is a good player in this regard.
Since he holds the Evolution Cube, the most profit must be on his side, but the empire also gets some money. After all, they have helped to bear the pressure for so long, and it cannot be regarded as nothing happened. Moreover, Scarlet Empire will need to provide assistance in logistics, transportation, and raw materials in the future. After all, the entire universe market is too large, and the current Black Star Legion alone cannot cover the entire universe.
The two talked for a while before Han Xiao hung up the communication. When he thought that the Legion was about to get a huge profit channel that would keep coming money, he was in a good mood.
Suddenly, a long-standing thought came to mind, Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and a playful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"When the Scarlet Empire announces this decree, I can go to the Infinite Consortium... Hmph, I thought that if I take back the business suppression on me now, I can pretend that the past did not happen, how can there be such a good thing."
…
Emerald star cluster, stronghold of beast ancestors, actual combat training ground.
Bang!
The fist that was bent like a leopard's claws was wrapped with a light black channel arrogance, and it hit the abdomen of a flesh fiercely. The skin and muscles of the hit part swayed with a circle of ripple-like ripples under the huge force, and the air shock wave Then burst out. A burly figure flew out by this blow, and the momentum was like a cannonball.
Snake withdrew his fist, and the poisonous pale black arrogance dissipated, and said lightly: "No more fighting, let's be here today."
After all, he didn't even look at the die-hard party cadres who took the initiative to ask for lessons but was easily defeated by him, put on the windbreaker and walked out of the training ground.
In normal times, Snake would be too lazy to respond to other people's challenges, but he was in a bad mood recently and was trying to vent by fighting.
Snake lamented at the thought of everyone being grounded by the secret master and not allowed to leave this stronghold.
"Drip."
At this moment, the communicator rang, and Snake glanced at it, but it was the call from his eldest sister, Jotina, whom he had always respected.
As soon as the connection was connected, Jotina shouted, dissatisfied: "I invited you to leave the Beast Ancestor Organization together, you said to wait and see, I agreed, but it has been so long, you haven't brought your Brothers and sisters of a family left? What's the matter with you, little brother?"
Snake looked helpless and whispered: "Eldest sister, it's not that I don't want to leave, it's just that some accidents happened."
"What accident?" Jotina frowned.
"It's the secret master..." Snake thought of the magic brand used for surveillance on his body, and suddenly paused and fought a psychological struggle before he gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth: "He said that he would take over the army of the beast ancestor, let us all People work for him, no one can leave the Beast Ancestor stronghold now, and I'm trapped here too."
Jotina was furious, hating that iron is not steel, "I want you to leave early, you cowardly don't listen, now it's alright, it's a waste! Trash! Shame on my mother!"
She scolded, Snake was submissive, couldn't refute, and didn't dare to retort.
The hatred of the rebellious faction against Gorutan basically stems from the miserable experience of his biological mother, so it is more human than the other two factions. There is a real brother and sister relationship between some people, Snake and Jotina together Growing up, I was afraid of this eldest sister since I was a child, and the shadow of my childhood still remains.
Jotina scolded for a while, seeing Snake's slumped face, she couldn't bear it, and asked, "If you are not willing to serve the secret master all the time, run away when you find a chance."
Snake shook his head and sighed: "The secret master said that escaping without authorization is considered a betrayal. He left a magical imprint on us. Even if we dare to escape privately, how can we escape the pursuit of Transcendent A Grade."
For the brothers and sisters she recognized, Jotina had a warm heart. She couldn't bear to see Snake being forced to be loyal to the secret master. After a while, she suddenly said:
"I ask you, are you willing to join the Black Star Legion?"
"Of course I would, but now I have no chance." Snake sighed.
Hearing this, Jotina gritted her teeth and said decisively, "Don't worry, I'll find a way to ask the legion commander for help!"
After all, she didn't wait for Snake to answer, and hung up the call in a hurry.
Snake held up the busy communicator with a helpless look on his face.
"Ask Black Star for help? How is that possible..."
He sighed, not holding out at all.
If you think about it, you will know that these people are the subordinates of the ancestors of the beast, but they have the meaning of defecting in words, and they are not the Black Star Legion. A grade.
…
The former palace of the beast ancestor has become the place where the secret master lives.
Gorutan's huge throne has been put into the alchemy storage bottle by the secret master. As a trophy collection, his own throne replaced Gorutan's seat.
At this moment, the secret master sat on the throne, flipping through the information of the cadres of the beast ancestors, and Bairamhou was on the side, answering questions at any time.
At this moment, the communicator of the secret master rang, he glanced at it, and his expression suddenly became serious.
This look like a great enemy made Byram stunned for a moment, secretly guessing whose call it was that caused the secret master's expression to change greatly.
At this time, the secret master waved his hand and said coldly: "You go out first."
Hearing that, although Byram was curious, he could only retire and leave. Although he considered himself the new confidant of the secret master, he did not dare to violate the rules.
There was only himself left in the room, and the secret master was connected to the communication with a look of awe.
"Black Star, what are you looking for from me?"
The voice fell, and Han Xiao's hearty laughter came from the communicator.
"Hahaha, Secret Master, you seem a little nervous."
"You think too much."
The secret master's brain is running fast. Although he wants to make friends with Black Star, he can't help but feel guilty when he receives an active communication from the other party at this moment.
Han Xiao smiled, "Although we had a conflict on the issue of chaotic secret energy, but the matter has been resolved, and there is no hatred between us, you say yes, I also helped you a lot. "
"What are you busy with?"
"I have to ask? It must be the ancestor of the beast. You reminded me at the beginning, didn't you just want to block Gorutan? He and you are both refugees in the black market. There must be some conflicts of interest. I will help you solve him, let Isn't it a big favor for you to be able to seize his market?"
"Indeed, you helped me indirectly." The secret master did not deny it.
"Since I did you a favor, I just need you to do me a favor." Han Xiao blinked and said with a meaningful smile: "I heard that you are taking over the army of the ancestor of the beast, don't worry, I look at the group. I am not interested in the crooked melons and jujubes of the enemy, you want to take it with you... But, there seem to be some good people who want to abandon the darkness and go to the light and join me, so don't stop these people. "
The secret master's eyes changed slightly, and he was a little reluctant to bear these natural disaster grade cadres.
And if this hole is opened, then there will always be some cadres who will go to Black Star as an excuse, so will he let people go or not? As a result, the gains from taking over the Ancestor Beast Army will be reduced by a large margin, and many natural disaster-level talents will inevitably be lost.
But since Black Star called, he knew that he was detaining people. If he didn't agree, he would offend Black Star. Moreover, Black Star must be very tough recently, which might intensify the conflict. He still wants to make friends, but he doesn't want to Lost big because of small.
Although the secret master felt a pity, he didn't hesitate at this time. He didn't want to offend Black Star, who was in the limelight for some natural disaster-level cadres.
"That's great~" Han Xiao laughed sincerely.
The two suppressed their inner emotions, and pretended to be good brothers and chatted for a while, and then hung up the phone.
As soon as the communicator was put down, the face of the secret master collapsed, and it was not very good-looking. He summoned Byram and ordered:
"You brought Snake's group here."
Byram was a little puzzled, but complied.
Soon, Snake and other cadres of rebellious factions gathered in the palace, staring at the secret master on the throne with complex, helpless, and unhappy eyes.
The secret master was expressionless and asked slowly: "Who of you wants to join the Black Star Legion?"
There was a slight commotion in the crowd, and everyone looked at each other, wondering what the secret master was doing
Could it be that this is a temptation, wanting to kill the chickens and warn the monkeys, and completely dispel our thoughts of defecting to others
Everyone suddenly became vigilant, feeling that they had guessed the truth, and immediately expressed their loyalty.
"How is it possible, we all voluntarily accept the protection of Your Excellency the Secret Master."
"Everyone here is a brother, and they speak nicely. I like them very much here, how could it be possible to defect to others."
Seeing this scene, the secret master only felt pain in the eggs.
If he treats other people, he can use this method to prevaricate, saying that no one is willing to defect, but the secret master does not intend to play tricks to perfunctory Black Star, and he is depressed.
The situation at this time can be summed up simply as…
Everyone: Secret Master Dad, we really don't want to go to Black Star.
Secret Master: No, you think, get out and recognize your father.
Taking a deep breath, the secret master calmed down, suddenly released his aura, and said solemnly: "Stop talking nonsense, if you want to go to Black Star, I won't stop you, I'm not joking with you, and if you want to go, get out."
The people who were expressing their loyalty felt strong pressure and were stunned when they found that the secret master did not look like a temptation.
What's going on? Wasn't it grounded some time ago? Why did we suddenly release us
Is the secret master so fickle
Byram's eyes changed, thinking of the call just now, thinking about it now, the caller must be Black Star.
Even a few words made the secret master compromise, and the secret master was so afraid of Black Star...
Byram was secretly startled.
In the crowd, Snake suddenly thought of the phone call with Jotina two hours ago, and suddenly took a breath.
"It can't be wrong, it must be the handwriting of Black Star, otherwise I can't explain it..."
He found that the secret master's face was not good-looking, and he must be reluctant to this decision.
Snake secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a storm surged in his heart.
In his opinion, Jotina has just joined the legion, and it is impossible to have the right to speak, so Black Star does not hesitate to offend the secret master, 80% of which is because of the importance he attaches to them.
Although he didn't know if his guess was right, Snake couldn't help feeling a surge of emotion in his heart, quite the urge to die for his confidant.
"... It seems that Jotina is right, Black Star is indeed a character worthy of defecting."
…
Because it was a private transaction, the departure of Snake and others did not cause any trouble.
But seven or eight days later, the Scarlet Empire issued a decree without warning, but it suddenly detonated the enthusiasm of the entire universe, stunned the eyes of countless people.
The content of the decree is very simple. The empire has decided to open the purchase rights of evolution totems to the whole universe in one year!
It has not been a day or two for the three major civilizations to fight over the evolutionary totem. Once this statement was released, one stone stirred up a thousand waves and caused an uproar, and countless civilizations went wild with excitement.
The longevity is over, and the empire has finally come to its senses!
The entire universe knows that the Scarlet Empire will not aimlessly, and making such a decision suddenly must be inseparable from the recent events.
And as we all know, the only major event in the universe that happened recently is the Black Star Conferred God Battle!
The causal relationship between two events, even ordinary people can understand.
The empire suddenly opened up the right to purchase Evolution Totem, and was surprised by Black Star's record, so he compromised with Black Star, voluntarily made concessions, and allowed Black Star, who owns the Evolution Cube, to control the Evolution Totem business!
The cosmos grade civilization, especially the stubborn bigwig like the Scarlet Empire, has given way to a Transcendent A Grade!
How many years has this scene been seen? !
To figure this out, countless interstellar citizens and civilized forces are shocked beyond measure.
On the other hand, Guanghui and Voidling were not surprised but delighted.
The black star stands tall, thus impressing the Scarlet Empire to open up the evolution totem. For this reason, it seems worthwhile for us to fold a few Transcendent A Grades.
We are going the wrong way!
If I knew earlier that I shouldn't have put pressure on the empire and Black Star, and sent a bunch of heads to Black Star early to make him perform supernaturally, wouldn't the plan to devise an evolutionary totem have already succeeded? !
A government decree from the empire set off a frenzy of public opinion in the entire universe. Originally, Han Xiao's record was unabated. At this moment, it has skyrocketed again. His personal prestige leaped to a shocking level for a while. Before the popularity of this matter dropped, He alone overwhelmed all other Transcendent A Grade light.
When the outside world was rumored, the branch of the Infinite Consortium in Glittering World quietly welcomed an uninvited guest.
