Golden Gate Star.
After a delay of nearly a month, Han Xiao returned to Base 1 with the twenty-four spaceships he had captured. The looting ship was smaller in size, and after changing the messy paint on the outer shell, it was merged into the assault fleet.
The Raven Cannon-class battleships are of the same level as the Crazy Falcon-class battleships. They are stored in the hangar and can be put into use after the repairs are completed.
In addition to this batch of spaceships, the number of fleets under Han Xiao’s command is close to 100, which are divided into four units. One is the fortress-level flagship as a separate unit, which belongs to the strategic core, and the other is the mad falcon and the crow. The battleship troop composed of artillery classes shoulders the responsibilities of escort and frontal combat. The third is the assault ship troop composed of the Dusky Star Assault Ships and Star Thief Raiders that have been captured. The fourth is the leased transport spaceship troop for transporting Lots of manpower.
As for the Black Light Lurker, it was Han Xiao’s exclusive vehicle, produced by the Radiance Federation. Its level and performance far surpassed other ships of the Black Star Legion, and Resta didn’t want too many people to use its body.
Watching the last spaceship parked in the hangar, Han Xiao asked Philip to close the door of the hangar and put Slack and other prisoners in the secret cell of Base 1.
This cell is made of extremely tough alloys, equipped with a large number of automatic defense weapons, such as defense turrets, nerve gas, etc., as well as sedative pipe syringes, high-temperature cutting ray rails, strong electromagnetic confinement suction cups, large vacuum suction fields and other controls The means, a large number of miniature cameras are arranged in the walls, Philip is under all-weather surveillance, and the defense is extremely tight to prevent the prisoners from escaping.
However, on the way back, he was extracting the superpower genes of this group of captives every day, including Slack, who looked very weak.
Because of the stronger resilience of the natural disaster grade, Slack is given special care, and the production capacity is more than five times that of others.
Han Xiao has already saved hundreds of bottles of ability potions, which are divided into categories, some are reserved for himself, and some are sold in the faction store.
The bridges inside the No. 1 base are vertical and horizontal, like a hive. Han Xiao is walking on the road, players can be seen everywhere, and they are gradually getting familiar with the new main city.
Many people cast their eyes on Han Xiao. He is a well-known NPC in the eyes of players and a faction leader. When players see him, they have the feeling of seeing a friendly acquaintance. Many people will take the initiative to say hello, and Han Xiao nodded in response.
The camp had a backlog of things to be processed. Han Xiao checked Silvia’s homework, then returned to the room, took out a concentrated nutrition bar from the refrigerator, and chewed it while handling affairs.
The first problem is to deal with the aftermath of the hiring tasks of many players.
With the exception of Star Sunil, most of the players who were hired from all over the Garton Galaxy have completed their tasks and returned. This is the first batch of large-scale employment activities of the Black Star Legion. Han Xiao paid more attention to it and asked Philip to filter out the problematic ones. The records were checked one by one.
Of course, not all players are smooth sailing. Some players have a low degree of mission completion. There are even a small group of people who mess around and make a mess of hiring, which affects the reputation of Black Star Legion. The former Han Xiao will ask Philip to sincerely apologize to the employer in the name of Black Star Legion, and the latter's mercenary file credit points will be reduced, which is equivalent to the case, and the acceptable quest level will be reduced.
Since it is necessary to use players to expand the Black Star Legion, Han Xiao has long been prepared for the problems that come with it. At present, it is a small problem, and the impact of players is naturally far greater than the disadvantages.
The first batch of large-scale employment activities stabilized the reputation brought by the Gedora award ceremony.
Nowadays, the employers of the Garton Galaxy, the first choice for finding mercenaries is the local Black Star Legion. The Mercenary Alliance has certified the Black Star Legion's leading position in the Garton Galaxy, and continues to provide a large number of local high-quality employment tasks.
This has caused a consequence. The mercenary business of the Garton Galaxy has gradually been monopolized by the Black Star Legion. Although a galaxy has a large population, there are not necessarily many people who need mercenaries. The free mercenaries operating in the Garton Galaxy suddenly found that they could hardly find high-quality hires. Most of the task lists given by the Mercenary Alliance were meagerly paid jobs.
The free mercenaries are very envious of the business that the Black Star Legion enjoys. Many people find that if the Black Star Legion continues to develop according to this trend, the backlog of employment in the Garton Galaxy will be completed sooner or later, and the new hires will be added at that time. The mission will be taken away by the Black Star Legion again, and these free mercenaries are likely to have no work, which is a very bad prospect.
The rise of the Black Star Legion cannot be stopped. There are three trends in the free mercenaries of the Garton Galaxy. The first is to satisfy the status quo regardless of future development. The second is to leave the Garton Galaxy and find work elsewhere.
The third is to apply to join the Black Star Legion.
There are a lot of freelance mercenaries who choose this path. The Black Star Legion has grown in size and has an excellent reputation. Since the Black Star Legion has a tendency to monopolize the Garton Galaxy mercenary business, joining Black Star is a good idea. The choice is to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade, change from a victim to a vested interest, and enjoy Black Star's business.
Among Han Xiao's business ideas, there is a plan to increase word-of-mouth through players, thereby attracting free mercenaries. After players joined, the scale has soared to hundreds of thousands, the infrastructure is basically perfect, and funds are more abundant, so He is not going to control the number of people, and let Philip screen the records of these free mercenaries who have applied to join, and eliminate some of the pitfalls who clearly want to come to the task, leaving the capable and successful mercenaries.
The first batch of free mercenaries who passed the screening consisted of about six or seven thousand people.
However, this number will still change. Han Xiao asked Philip to issue a notice to the group of mercenaries and set a date. Fifteen days later, they will be asked to come to Base No. 1 for an interview. It is estimated that some people will be wiped out by then, and only the last ones will stay. It is a new mercenary who is really recruited into the Black Star Legion.
Recruiting more freelance mercenaries is an important part of Black Star Legion's expansion.
The second pending event is still related to the player.
After the first separate employment activity, these players have a specific understanding of the interstellar environment and the task process. There are many players on the forum who share the difficulties encountered in the execution of employment.
Han Xiao also paid attention to this issue. In his previous life, he also experienced the stage when players first entered the interstellar environment and did not adapt to the environment. He expected this, and he basically understood the problems encountered by players.
As early as a year before the opening of 2.0, the mechanical production line he built, in addition to the production of mechanical equipment, was also a part of auxiliary props, in order to improve the player's business ability.
Now, players finally have this demand, and Han Xiao is going to put this part of the mechanical props into the faction store. It just so happens that after the players have completed the first wave of employment, most of them have to return to Base No. 1, and the sales must be very popular.
…
In the store area of Base No. 1, people are constantly coming in and out, and this is the place with the highest density of players.
Although it is possible to buy online through Philips, you can only see the physical objects in the store area, and this is also the place to pick up the goods.
Many players buy equipment with the latest reward.
At this moment, the faction store suddenly refreshed, and a series of new products were put on the top, and there was a striking "ne!" sign in the upper right corner.
"A new product so soon?"
"Look what it is."
Every store update attracts a large number of players' attention, and this time is no exception.
Didi
In the crowd, the voice of the communicator kept ringing, and it was connected together. Many people took out the communicator and saw that the Philip assistant program also issued a notice of store update, which can be viewed in the pre-order list.
Soon, players discovered that what was updated this time was not equipment for combat.
The introduction of new products jumped into view:
[[Small land leveling core] can quickly change a small area of terrain into a flat open space, which can be used to build temporary strongholds. The specific parameters are… ]
[[Multifunctional airdrop package] contains a variety of machinery required for airdrops, adapting to various emergencies encountered by airdrops… ]
[[Portable Small Folding Bunker] can be deployed in an open space to form a temporary alloy fort as a position, equipped with positional weapon slots and basic warning functions… ]

[[Worker Bee Armor] Single-soldier mining armor, used to collect ore and fuel, equipped with multi-functional mining tools and energy mine guns, high armor load, suitable for handling ores… ]
Players are faced with a complex environment for hiring, with different mission requirements, including but not limited to sneaking, chasing, gathering, reconnaissance, assassination, frontal combat, etc., and emergencies are prone to occur.
Although these machines added by Han Xiao are not equipment to improve combat effectiveness, they can be adapted to many situations and belong to tactical props.
The technology of these machines is not high, but they are things that players need very much, and they are cheap and affordable auxiliary props.
Among them, such as the machine turret, it is something that Han Xiao made a long time ago. He has always used the turret flow, but it is only now being sold to players on a large scale. The relatively high-end electromagnetic turrets or energy turrets have not yet been sold. He sells gunpowder turrets. The average player is currently around level 70, and the gunpowder turret can still be used.
At present, some mechanical players can also manufacture some of these products, but whether it is quality, cost or production capacity, the price/performance ratio is far lower than the direct purchase of Black Star Legion products.
These functional props just meet the new needs of players.
"It seems very useful."
"I'm about to pick up a job, and this wave of new products is very timely."
Many players were surprised.
Not only the players at Base 1, but those who were doing missions in Sunil or other planets also received a notice from Philip and were moved.
Especially the 200,000 players of Star Sunil, who deal with catastrophes, need to face complex field situations, and also need to clear the underground Bewitching Stone veins.
The number of warehouses is limited, and players are rushing to buy these new products. The prices of these new products are very low, and the demand is particularly large. In less than 20 minutes, the inventory was sold out, and all orders were placed, and many people did not buy them. money to pre-order.
Players have become accustomed to the characteristics of Black Star Legion's "growth camp". They feel that this time it is obvious that Black Star Legion players have worked together to drive the development of the camp, so they will update this wave of equipment and look at the new products in the camp store. Many players felt a sense of achievement in their hearts.
…
After adding these auxiliary items, Han Xiao is also observing the sales situation, because it is a functional item, the positioning is cheap and affordable, and the price is relatively low, but after selling all the inventory, within half an hour, his funds are rising steadily. The player's money pours into his personal account.
This time, a total of 6.6 million Inar was made in this transaction!
In addition to the support of Norios, and the income from the last sale of equipment inventory, Han Xiao's deposit amount reached 44 million Inal!
This is a huge sum of money.
"The funds are very abundant. With this money, I can form a mechanical army as I want." Han Xiao is very satisfied.
So much money, if you just use it yourself, it can take a long time, but obviously, these funds are also used to maintain the operation of the Black Star Legion and support the expansion of the Black Star Legion.
The development blueprint of the Black Star Legion formulated by Han Xiao is very ambitious. He plans to use the Garton Galaxy as the base, select dozens of important npc resource planets, and continuously establish sub-bases to turn the Garton Galaxy into the base camp of the Black Star Legion. Firmly control the mercenary business here, and even form a monopoly.
Then expand the business to other galaxies, establish sub-bases in other galaxies, and expand step by step, so there will be many places to burn money, such as adding a large number of spaceships, recruiting a large number of personnel, establishing cooperative relations with more forces, etc...
The identity of the mercenary group is just a springboard. Han Xiao's real goal is to create a super-large armed force, and War Realm is a precedent.
The estimated cost of this blueprint is an astronomical figure that he cannot estimate.
All he knew was that the money was far from enough.
A long way to go.
"However, this is not something that can be developed in a short period of time. Anyway, the sales channels have been established and the profits are constantly flowing. I don't need to save money."
Han Xiao smiled, took out the communicator, and ordered a large number of mechanical materials from the raw material supplier he had been working with.
I finally have time to relax and have time to completely strengthen all the combat equipment to the level of natural disasters!
"Hopefully, there will be no more emergencies like the Purple Snake Star Thief Group in the near future..." Han Xiao thought. 8)
