Soon, the communicator shot out an inverted conical mimetic projection light, which quickly swept across the room. Wherever it passed, the scene of the room changed instantly, becoming a conference room where Ulan Riel and a group of military executives were located, as if they were in the room. territory.
Han Xiao glanced at him and found that all the senior members of the military were present, all staring at him with curiosity, scrutiny, admiration, amazement, etc., and they were very interested in him.
"Black Star, you have made a huge contribution to this incident, and the empire will reward you for your contribution." Ulan Riel stared at Han Xiao, with a tone of praise.
"I'm just saving myself." When the high-level leaders of the empire gathered together, Han Xiao couldn't help but say a scene, humble and very comfortable.
"In any case, you have credit." Ulan Riel made a rare polite sentence, and then returned to the business, "Talrokov has described the process of this battle just now, but I want to hear your version, You still need to answer some questions."
Han Xiao didn't care, and looked at the battle from the perspective of Transcendent A Grade, and the information he mastered was naturally different. He told it from the beginning to the end, and the clips related to the panel were simply taken.
Ulan Riel nodded and asked, "I want to know if your method of resisting and sealing the scepter of the gods is a new cosmic treasure."
"Well, this is something I stumbled upon while exploring Glittering World. It's a cosmic spectacle."
"It turned out to be like this." Ulan Riel did not ask about the name and role of the time-space amber. If Black Star is willing to say it, she will naturally say it. If she doesn't want to, she doesn't reluctantly make a contribution to the hero. Transcendent A Grade is of course conservative. The qualification of her own ability secret, she only needs to make sure that Black Star is her own.
"I sealed the scepter of the gods. If there is no accident, it will be difficult for Ethereal Religion to break my seal, but they don't know it yet... The scepter of the gods is a cosmic treasure they value, and they may negotiate with the empire privately. ."
Ulan Riel heard the words, his eyes moved slightly, and he asked: "Are you sure it is difficult for them to unlock the seal?"
"There is no absolute in everything. Maybe Ethereal Religion can research something, but from a probability point of view, their success rate in cracking is very low. It is likely that only I can help them unlock the seal of the scepter of the gods."
"I know, if it's like what you said, we still underestimated your credit, Ethereal Religion loses the scepter of the gods, and their deterrent to Transcendent A Grade combat power will drop by a notch, I have decided to fight against Ethereal Sect, you have reduced the chance of accidental casualties in the Empire’s Transcendent A Grade combat power, which is good.” Ulan Ruil paused, “However, the matter of Lighthouse Star has made the relationship between the two parties tense. In a short period of time, the virtual The Spirit Sect will not negotiate with us privately, but will pretend to have broken the seal."
"Well, you are right." Han Xiao thought about it, indeed, the empire is going to fight back, Ethereal Religion will not give in easily, it is likely to be swollen and fat, secretly burnt and unable to crack the seal, but pretending to be big on the bright side Tail wolf, strong outside and dry in the middle.
"Also, on the issue of Ability God, Ethereal Religion actually cooperated with the notorious Ark of the Fallen, and the Empire will issue a statement to the entire universe condemning Ethereal Religion's behavior..." Ulan Riel changed the topic, "Don't worry, You use the Evolution Cube this time to satisfy the behavior of Ability God, and the Empire has no opinion."
Han Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that his conspiracy against Ability God was effective, but he still made a transaction with Ability God in essence. But the empire is not unreasonable. If it is a private transaction with the Ability God, it will naturally be inexplicable, but at this critical moment, he has no choice. It is a helpless move to openly py with the Ability God in the public eye, Ulan Riel said that he would not Pursuing this matter means that the empire means that no one is allowed to use this matter to attack the reputation of Black Star.
From this sentence, Han Xiao realized that Ulan Riel was trying to win him over to become a member of the head of state. Summoning him in person was not only a compliment, but also expressed this attitude. With such a huge empire, the natural law of infighting cannot be avoided. There are many factions. This time, Han Xiao has made a contribution. There will be no problem when the limelight is in full swing, but after a while, there may be some factions that take advantage of the theme.
'If the Empire Transcendent A Grade were killed this time, or I didn't capture Di Lun, maybe someone would take advantage of this and force me to hand in the Evolution Cube...' Han Xiao was secretly surprised, he just finished the battle and didn't think about it. , At this time, after a vague reminder from Ulan Riel, he understood the good intentions of the head of state.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, Head of State." Han Xiao nodded.
Ulan Riel snorted, "About Dylan, what are you going to do with him?"
"I decided to hand it over to the empire." Han Xiao said slowly: "The Ethereal Religion returned this time, they will not easily do anything to the Evolution Cube, but if I keep Dylan as a prisoner, Ethereal Religion will Taking into account the opinions of allies, I will never sit idly by, and will definitely take rescue measures. I don’t want this incident to repeat itself. Once again, I may not be as lucky as I am today. It is better to leave it to the empire and treat it as a relationship with Ethereal Religion. bargaining chips."
This time, although the Ethereal Religion was repelled, if Dylan was imprisoned in his personal capacity, it would not only be a face slap, but would be crushed on the ground by stepping on the face of Ethereal Religion. , there is no problem in counterattack, but it can completely irritate the other party. Ninety-nine percent of myself have no good fruit to eat. Dylan is a hot potato. The harm of keeping it in my hands is far greater than the benefit. It is better to give it to the empire in exchange for greater credit and get a lot Faction contribution, in exchange for ultimate knowledge.
"You're doing the right thing. I think so too. I wanted to persuade you, but since you're willing to hand it in, that's even better."
A rare smile appeared on Ulan Riel's indifferent face, knowing that Han Xiao had accepted her olive branch, and smiled lightly, "This time you have done a lot of credit, except for the empire's praise and support for you and the Black Star Legion. , you can ask for anything else you need."
The empire will definitely give Black Star Legion greater resource support this time. This point does not need to be emphasized. Han Xiao proposed what he most expected.
"I hope to get more ultimate knowledge."
"Well, there is no problem." Ulan Riel agreed, "I will instruct the chief of the Imperial Logistics Bureau to speak to you directly, you just need to ask him."
For such trivial matters as exchanging knowledge, it is impossible for the head of the empire, who is in charge of every day, to be personally responsible.
Han Xiao nodded with a smile, secretly calculating, this time, there must be more than one ultimate knowledge, each of which can bring a huge increase to the mechanic's combat power.
However, it is impossible to get all the ultimate knowledge at one time, and the credit is not false, but there are also rules and regulations to follow. Ultimate knowledge is one of the important means of attracting Transcendent A Grade to join, even if it is the Empire’s direct Transcendent A Grade. In exchange for it slowly.
"The impact of this incident will affect the situation in the entire universe." Ulan Riel resumed his serious tone of business, and said solemnly: "The Ethereal Religion is provocative, the empire must fight back, and the Radiance Federation has always liked to bet on both sides. , so our energy to explore Glittering World will be restrained, and the three major civilizations will compete with each other. Those Transcendent star cluster civilizations will take this opportunity to increase their efforts to penetrate Glittering World. This is what Void Spirit and Guanghui want to see, forcing the empire to simultaneously Dealing with multiple issues and getting us into a quagmire."
Knowing that Ulan Riel must have a purpose for saying this, Han Xiao asked, "Then what do you think?"
"We need to deter Transcendent star cluster grade civilization, so we will successively recall some Transcendent A Grade combat power and troops guarding Glittering World. Of course, their forces are still exploring in Glittering World."
Han Xiao didn't speak, he knew what Ulan Riel meant, the empire couldn't keep so many Transcendent A Grades in Glittering World all the time, the idea must have been there long ago, but he didn't care, he and Heboar's territory Just nearby Broken Starlink, unlikely to be recalled.
Upon seeing this, Ulan Riel changed the subject and asked, "Black Star, what do you think of the current situation of the empire?"
"It's no different from you, the struggle is mainly around Glittering World, not everyone can participate in the competition, and the aftermath of the red tide is gradually cooling, so the interstellar society will not be affected, and those star cluster-level and galaxy-level civilizations will become safe. Divide a little." Han Xiao shrugged.
"Maybe." Ulan Riel nodded slowly, and suddenly asked: "Do you have any suggestions for the empire's counterattack plan?"
Han Xiao's heart moved slightly. The head of state discussed the plan of the empire with himself, and he might not accept his suggestion, but this gesture represented his rising status and voice within the empire.
After thinking about it, Han Xiao's eyes flashed, he coughed, and said: "It is necessary for the empire to take a counterattack, but the focus can be adjusted. Ethereal Religion is also a cosmic civilization, and countering them is just a necessary attitude, presumably the head of state. Your Excellency also knows that it is difficult to have results."
"continue."
"If you want me to say, we should take revenge on Ability God. Ability God also participated in the Battle of Lighthouse Star. He is much easier to deal with than Ethereal Religion. It happens that the barren cosmos belt in the middle of the central star sea has always been the friction between the three major civilizations. The default battlefield is just to deal with Ability God along the way, if the Ark of the Fallen can be eradicated, the empire will show a resolute counterattack method, which is more deterrent."
This incident is a good opportunity to convince the empire to vigorously deal with Ability God. If you can get help from the Empire, the chance of killing Ability God is even higher.
Ulan Riel was noncommittal, and said lightly: "I will let someone analyze your suggestion. The priority now is to pursue the fleet of Ethereal Religion and Ability God. When the reinforcements arrive, you will follow Tarrokov's command and cooperate. Operation Imperial Fleet... If we hit us, we want to run, it's not that easy!"
After finishing speaking, Ulan Riel nodded to Han Xiao and said, "You go to rest first, you still need to continue to fight during the pursuit."
"it is good."
After the call was over, the mimetic projection in the room disappeared and returned to its original state.
Han Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly happy. The credit of this battle made him feel a wave of presence in front of the empire's high-level officials, and his identity in the hearts of others changed from a new ally to a reliable Empire Transcendent A Grade, and he also With the help of the head of state, his status and influence have been improved.
Putting away the communicator, Han Xiao found a new prompt popped up on the panel, opened it and glanced at it.
[You gain 1 political asset]
[Political Assets (1): Scarlet Empire]
[You have made great contributions to the Scarlet Empire, and you have gained a certain amount of political influence. You can make suggestions to the Scarlet Empire. According to the rationality of the suggestions, the Scarlet Empire has a certain chance to adopt]
[When you have a higher status in the Scarlet Empire and interact with certain forces or characters, the cumulative efficiency of favorability is +30%]
[You have valuable experience in all forms to gain experience efficiency +30%]
[Note: The conditions for the above effects to take effect are that the faction relationship of the Scarlet Empire remains [Revered]]
"Yo, I thought there was only a reputation reward, no political assets." Han Xiao was shocked, and then he realized that this was an additional reward triggered by Ulan Riel's attention.
However, it is not easy to keep this political asset in effect. He needs to spend the faction contribution to exchange for ultimate knowledge, that is, to ensure that the contribution is not less than 6000 points, which is a 50% discount for him to exchange an ultimate knowledge.
Han Xiao looked at the next prompt and raised his brows.
[You get 10,000 Scarlet Empire Contribution Points]
[You get an additional 5000 Scarlet Empire Contribution]
"I only get the contribution degree after chatting with Ulan Riel..." Han Xiao pinched his chin. He has an npc panel and can freely reward Black Star Legion members for their contribution degree. As the leader of the faction, the principle is the same. But Ulan Riel is just unconscious.
The 10,000 Contribution Points are the harvest of this battle, and the extra 5,000 points is estimated to be the credit for turning in Dylan, plus the more than 3,000 Empire Contribution Points that he has saved, it is more than 18,000 points.
"It happens to be exchangeable for three ultimate knowledge." Han Xiao's eyes lit up.
Ultimate knowledge is different from cutting-edge knowledge. The empire will not give it directly. It is still a way of exchange. The actual expression of Ulan Riel's care seems to give some more contribution.
"In this case, I can exchange two knowledge, leaving 6,000 points to maintain the role of political assets, and I am not in a hurry to exchange all of them."
Turning off the panel, Han Xiao was satisfied, and felt the joy of finally getting the harvest after all the hard work.
At this moment, a burst of blue light suddenly lit up outside the porthole, reflecting on his angular, youthful face.
Turning his head and looking out the window, he saw that the lighthouse star was not far away. The stargate was finally assembled and activated. The blue space energy vortex was rapidly spinning in the stargate ring.
"It's finally here."
…
As time passed, batches of support fleets sailed out of the Stargate, including the Empire's direct fleet, Krent and other star cluster-level civilization allies, and Black Star Legion, War Realm and other Transcendent A-level forces.
Most of these are troops stationed around the edge of the three star clusters. If Ethereal Religion attacks the current Lighthouse Star, the only end is to be quickly annihilated, hung up and beaten.
"The battle is over?!"
Among Tarrokov's main ships, Heboar, who left the main fleet and rushed back in a high-warp spaceship, Raven Lauder, who borrowed arcane teleportation to help with the Stargate channel, and Maxi Rorzi, who was remote projection Gather together and sit opposite Han Xiao.
Knowing that the Lighthouse Star Force was repelling the enemy without support, the three of Heboar couldn't help showing shock.
Under such a situation of crushing combat power, the Lighthouse Star actually held it
Black Star reversed the situation on the Transcendent A Grade battlefield, not only that, but also captured an opponent alive.
Heboar and Ravenlaud had mixed feelings. They thought they were the saviors, but they didn't expect that before they came, Han Xiao forced the enemy back, as if they were not needed at all...
However, this idea did not last long. Although it was late, they knew that it was precisely because of the pressure of reinforcements that Ethereal Religion would retreat. Thinking of this, I felt much better, and it would not make a soy sauce.
"Black Star, I heard that you got a new cosmic treasure in Glittering World, and you used it to block the scepter of the gods?" Ravenlaud couldn't sit still and asked.
"Yes." Han Xiao smiled.
Hearing this, Ravenlaud has mixed feelings in his heart. He and Black Star are both exploring the same star cluster, proving that this unknown cosmic treasure is in the Gaolu star cluster, but it was taken first by Black Star... If there is no Black Star, this A cosmic treasure might be his
There was an inexplicable sense of loss in Ravenlaud's heart.
Heboar turned his head to look at Austin and frowned: "Why are you here? You also joined the empire?"
"I came here specially to help Black Star." Austin half-smiled.
Heboar's eyes turned twice on Han Xiao and Austin, and his heart was full of dissatisfaction. When did the relationship between the two people become so good
Both Emersy and Austin became friends of Black Star, and Heboar felt that he was alone in Broken Starlink.
But when he thought about it, he thought of Sisko's situation. Without comparison, there would be no harm, and he immediately felt more balanced.
But Heboar couldn't be happy either. Black Star scored a record of catching Transcendent A Grade alive this time. This was something he had been pursuing for many years, but it was obtained by Black Star who had just entered Transcendent A Grade for about a year. Er is a little autistic and wants to beat people.
At this time, Tarrokov spoke:
"I have dispatched troops from all over the world to block the escape routes of the two fleets of Sagman and Ability God. Your Excellency Maxirol has not arrived yet, let's wait, we have assembled six Transcendent A Grades here, and we can start the pursuit. ."
His so-called pursuit is not simply chasing behind, but dispatching imperial fleets from all over the Glittering World to delay the opponent's itinerary, block the route, and send imperial troops to search for the enemy's secret star in advance according to the direction of the enemy's escape. Door. All in all, it is to mobilize all the troops of the empire in Glittering World, and use various means to chase and intercept.
On the star map, the fleet of Ethereal Religion and Ability God is shown as a group of red, which is rapidly moving away, escaping separately, and in the direction of their escape, one by one blue light spots representing the imperial troops are blocking the road.
At this time, reinforcements arrived, and with a new force, you can rest assured to pursue, Milizaus and Beoni have no objection this time.
Austin said that he would go home to repair the Temple of Secret Law and would not participate in the operations of the empire, and Tarrokov would not force the outsiders invited by Han Xiao.
Heboar sorted out his mood, and suddenly found that this was an opportunity, maybe he could realize his wish and kill a Transcendent A Grade.
Thinking of this, Heboar's spirit was lifted, his fist was squeezed with great strength, and he banged an air explosion, and said solemnly: "Hmph, is it Metes, I have heard the name of this guy, give it to me deal with."
"The dignity of the empire cannot be provoked. Milizaus's injury is not yet healed. Let Nicah give it to me." Ravenlaud's eyes lit up with arcane light.
Foreign enemies have always been a good medicine for resolving internal conflicts. As a member of the empire, after letting go of the temporary competitive relationship, he also felt the same hatred.
"Then I will let my long-range mechanical troop support." The only Transcendent A Grade mechanic who was not present, Maxiroll, looked at Han Xiao, "Black Star, your mechanical corps suffered heavy losses, if you need it, mine The Legion can temporarily lend it to you."
"Okay, thank you."
Han Xiao nodded, stood up, looked around at all the Transcendent A Grades present, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his tone was sharp.
"In this case, let's act and see if they can easily escape back to the Central Star Sea!"
roles have been switched,
The hunter becomes the prey, and the prey becomes the hunter.
It's time to strike back!
