The Legendary Mechanic (Transcendental Mechanic)

The silver alloy door slowly slid open to both sides, and inside was a room made entirely of polymer materials. The walls and floor were all spotless milky white, and the reflection like enamel gave it a sense of roundness. .

Five large display cabinets are distributed in the center of the room in the shape of a pentagram. Each display cabinet houses a Transcendent A Grade solidified by time-space amber in different poses. Everyone's expressions are fixed on their faces. Apart from this, there is nothing else in the room. other things.

"This is my collection room."

A group of people walked into the room, and the first person to speak was Han Xiao, followed by Jotina and a group of former Beast Ancestor cadres.

The troops who went out destroyed the base camp of the Beast Ancestor. Jotina dragged a group of brothers and sisters over to thank them again. Han Xiao still remembered that he promised them to visit Gorutan, so he brought them here.

This is the collection room where he placed five Transcendent A Grade captives. The name of each captive is written on the showcase, namely the imaginary "Red Devil" Tolaen, the brilliant "Lone Walker" Jack Gonitz, and "Spirit" Wolverine. Moore, Hades, and "Beast Ancestor" Gorutan.

Five Transcendent A Grade specimens are displayed here, which is the best evidence of the record, and this scene alone has shocked everyone.

Jotina locked on to Gorutan with a single glance, and seeing this enemy who had terrified her for many years frozen in amber, she felt extremely happy.

"You have this day too!"

Jotina clenched her fists excitedly, feeling that this was the happiest day in her life, those gloomy days in the past no longer existed, and the world in front of her seemed to regain color.

It seems that there is a fresh breath rising in my mind, washing away the accumulated hatred, despair, and anger, leaving only the refreshing and hopeful feeling of starting a new life.

She looked back at Han Xiao, her eyes were full of admiration and tenderness that couldn't be melted away.

In her eyes, Black Star seemed to exude a holy light, and that was the streetlight leading her to a new life.

Sensing Qiaotina's enthusiastic eyes, Han Xiao's face trembled slightly.

He didn't have much contact with Jotina, but the straightforwardness and enthusiasm of the other party were still fresh in his memory.

The reward for [Liberation of the Beast Ancestor Force] has been settled, and it has gained a lot of goodwill. He estimates that Jotina's loyalty is about to explode.

Han Xiao coughed dryly, and said, "There are still some of you who haven't assigned specific duties. It just so happens that we rescued a large number of young offspring of the beast ancestors. This group of people will be taught by you, is it okay?"

"No problem!" Everyone nodded, very happy with this arrangement.

"Then take a look here, I still have something to deal with."

Han Xiao found an excuse to leave alone. Jotina and the others had been suppressed for many years. He didn't intend to disturb this group of people to vent their emotions. Anyway, with Philip watching, he didn't need to stay here.

Back in the office, Han Xiao thought about the staffing in the legion, and muttered to himself:

"The top-level natural disaster-level combat power under my command is currently only Hardaway, Rotaire, Fording, and Jotina. The other potential stocks have not yet fully grown. The weight, together with the rescued young offspring of the beast ancestors, will form a new faction in the legion in time..."

There are no factions in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things. The Black Star Army is also divided into various hilltops. If Han Xiao himself is not counted, it can be roughly divided into several major factions.

One is the elder faction headed by Melos, which is subdivided into small hills such as Sunil, Gedora, and Seablue Star. This faction represents the veteran members of the legion. The second is the academic faction headed by Lagi and Nilo, which is basically composed of previous graduates of the Super Academy and is very active. The third is the mainstream faction headed by some natural disaster grades who joined later. This faction is the largest, and it is dominated by official fighters and mercenaries without backers. The fourth is the administrative faction headed by Sylvia and Leonard, who are mainly non-combat clerks and are in charge of the legion's daily affairs, economic logistics and other fields.

After Qiao Tina and the others gain a firm foothold in the legion, they will most likely join together to form a Beast Ancestor Sect, or the Abandoning Darkness and Turning to the Bright Sect.

As for Hela, who works alone, does not manage confidantes, and has no faction, and the guard officer has limited influence on the various departments of the legion, and their functions do not overlap, so they cannot form a faction, and Rotaire, who runs the Assassin's Aid Association outside, is a secret. It is not considered any faction in the legion.

These factions will also fight in private, but they are suppressed by themselves, and they are very restrained from each other. Every large organization will continue to fight with each other as time goes by or expands. However, the Black Star Legion has not been established for a long time and is still very young, so the degree of internal fighting is very slight, and it is limited to internal competition for some businesses.

It is impossible to completely eradicate it. Everyone has their own thoughts and cannot ask others to give selflessly. Even a loyal backbone like Melos also has personal interests, and that is to seek more for the Sunil tribe. benefits.

Power can constantly change people's minds. The longer senior cadres serve the legion, the more they want. Moreover, the power users who subsequently defected to the Black Star Legion were originally looking for a broader future. Everyone is going to a higher place. No matter how big the cake is, the competition will not disappear.

"The same is true for the Development Federation. It is just a start-up now, and the concept of the faction is vague. When the resources are integrated to a certain extent, it will definitely split into different factions..." Han Xiao secretly said.

He guessed that the three major civilizations would use differentiation means to infiltrate the Transcendent A Grade Association. There will always be some people who do not agree with the theory of the Transcendent A Grade united front in their hearts, and are easy to be wooed, and there are more people who are swinging.

Transcendent A Grades are all rebellious people. The root of split factions is different opinions. The structure of the Development Federation is doomed to have disputes in the future, and the high-level executives above the director must understand the importance of grouping. The resource integration of the association Stage is an important accumulation period.

As the vice-chairman, he is nominally overwhelmed by Manison, but this cannot evade himself. The source of the right to speak is one's own strength and influence, and the other is the influence in the association.

"The resource integration stage is also an opportunity for me to use my advantages, make more members, form my own party, and gradually shorten the gap between me and Manison... As long as there are many people who support me, I can make decisions in daily Confronting Manison in court, it will also benefit my future re-election, if I don't do something, I may not be able to keep the position of vice president..."

Han Xiao pondered, he chose to take a step back just to accumulate.

There is a good opportunity right now. Although the three major civilizations acquiesce in the legitimacy of the Development Federation, the mission of the Dark Emperor has not yet ended.

That is to say, Clottey, the honorary director in name, will also attack other members, which will undoubtedly damage the credibility of the Development Federation. This is provocation and contempt of the universe-level civilization, and it is also an aggressive temptation.

"In this case, those neutral Transcendent A Grade hired by Transcendent star cluster civilization should feel panic. This seems to be an opportunity for me to take advantage of it. If I exert influence on the empire and let the high-level terminate the actions of the Dark Emperor, it will not only show my The importance of this vice-chairman can also gain the favor of these neutral people..."

With this in mind, Han Xiao asked Philip to send a text message to all the neutral Transcendent A Grades in the association, first asking for warmth, and then mentioning the Dark Emperor, making insinuations.

Although he decided to solve the matter himself, Han Xiao didn't want to keep a low profile. Helping others silently is usually a backup behavior. Either he doesn't do it, or he lets everyone know that he did it himself.

Therefore, Great Technician Han intends to contact these neutral Transcendent A Grades who are targeted by the Dark Emperor first, and ask them to raise this matter in public at the next plenary meeting-all Transcendent A Grade members will hold plenary meetings every once in a while to develop joint The reason for the meeting makes this kind of behavior justifiable, which is also one of the original intentions of building a communication platform.

"Speaking of which, the Dark Emperor caught the traveler. This guy blamed Sorokin. The Empire will definitely not let it go. I don't know what means it will use to punish the Infinite Consortium."

Han Xiao chuckled.

Beep...

At this moment, the communicator suddenly rang.

Guanghui and Void Ling sent messages one after another, the content of which was the eleventh revised redemption clause.

Han Xiao browsed through it, and compared to the first version, the compensation conditions of Guanghui and Void Spirit are much richer.

Because he has not responded to the amendments, the drafters of the two clauses are going crazy, and they deeply feel how terrifying it is for Party A who does not mention specific requirements.

"It's been several months, the torture is almost over, and there should be a result."

Han Xiao smacked his lips and changed some conditions on the basis of the two terms, such as replacing part of the resource compensation with golden blueprints.

There are a lot of golden blueprints in the inventory of the two major universe-level civilizations, and the exchanged items are all selected conventional equipment, but this is not important. Since this is one of the sources of divine transformation points, Han Xiao has a huge demand for golden blueprints .

As soon as the two quotations were issued, the diplomats of Guanghui and Xuling immediately became excited, and sent a communication application without saying a word, looking for Han Xiao to start a formal negotiation.

Han Xiao didn't torture the other party this time. After haggling for a price, he made an agreement that he would exchange for three Cosmic Treasure-level blueprints one after another.

The captives he plans to return in the first phase are Tolaen and Hetis, one each.

He hasn't sold Guanghui people to Void Spirit for the time being. Although such a provocation is useful, it also has disadvantages.

Anyway, there are two other glorious captives left in his hands, who can be sold for a price. Han Xiao now needs influence on the universe-level civilization in order to improve his voice in the Development Federation. The way to maximize the benefits is to stand still. As long as there are still prisoners in his hands, Radiance Federation has to take care of his face to a certain extent, and Void Spirit will also have the last hope, so he will not let go of all the prisoners easily.

After confirming the agreement, Han Xiao looked at the two relaxed diplomats and said slowly:

"I look forward to the day when you publicly apologize."

Radiance and Void Spirit publicly apologized for the attack on Black Star Legion, which was the first requirement of the compensation agreement.

"Okay, please follow the news."

The two diplomats performed different etiquette, then disconnected the communication, and the remote projection disappeared before Han Xiao's eyes.

Han Xiao leaned back, raised his legs, and murmured:

"Glory Void Spirit has been subdued for the time being, and the empire has also fulfilled the public decree of the evolution totem to mend relations with me. They will not use force against the Development Federation on the surface. In this way, the three major civilizations should stop for a while..."

He is well aware of the urine nature of the three major civilizations, and it is estimated that it will be calm for several months or even a year.

But this is just the calm before the storm, because the three major civilizations still have an old enemy to deal with, and that is the Transcendent star cluster alliance that has been quietly expanding in the free competition zone, silently saying "you can't see me".

When the three major civilizations are ready, they will definitely deal a head-on blow to the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance. This time, they will not be as gentle as they are with the Development Federation. It must be a thunderous means to dispel the unrealistic ambitions of these Transcendent Star Cluster Civilizations—or The reason why the three major civilizations are tolerant of Transcendent A Grade is because the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance is the number one enemy that needs to be dealt with urgently.

"These six months to a year have just allowed me to accumulate in a low-key way."

Han Xiao glanced at the panel, and there was a huge amount of experience flowing in every day. Although the cost of upgrading from level 320 to level 340 was an even more exaggerated astronomical figure, in the face of the ruthless leek cutting machine, sooner or later he could get it all together.

Now the players are familiar with the gameplay of the Flickering World version, and they are gradually getting on the right track, exploring and pk are both correct, and they are playing in full swing.

Han Xiao intends to enrich their game experience. Taking advantage of this free time, he happened to hold the legion contest that he had imagined before, and turned it into a large-scale festival event for the camp.

As the saying goes, horses have no night grass and are not fat. Only when players are happy, can they have more motivation in their livers.

...

At the same time, somewhere hidden in the Black Star Palace.

A player named [Elysium Disco], led by two mechanical soldiers, walked through the gates and walked in a deep passage.

There is no decoration in this corridor, only the pale ceiling lights extending all the way to the distance, the end of the line of sight is the metal wall at the corner, there is silence in the passage, only the monotonous footsteps can be heard,

Bliss Disco only felt the atmosphere permeating, and couldn't help but say:

"Dude, where are we going?"

The two mechanical soldiers had no intention of answering, they didn't even turn their heads, and their steps were still uniform.

"It's so mysterious..." Disco Bliss shrank his head, opened the panel, and muttered softly, "What kind of mission is this?"

In the task list, a task named [Special Experiment] is shining brightly.

Disco Elysium remembered that he had done nothing, and this task was suddenly triggered by himself, requiring him to follow the mechanical soldiers to a designated place to conduct a special experiment. There was no other introduction, but the rewards were very generous. Get seven or eight B-level employment rewards.

Curiosity drove him to accept this task, and he opened his mind along the way.

Does this involve the secrets of the Black Star Legion?

The Legion has actually been conducting secret experiments that violate some kind of taboo?

Why did I trigger it, could it be that the smuggling to Europe was successful this time?

Just as he was thinking about it, the two mechanical soldiers in front stopped, and the passage came to the end, which was an unpretentious alloy door.

After swiping the access control, the door opened, Disco Elysium looked in curiously, and a white laboratory jumped into view.

At this time, there was already another player in the room, who also looked over, and the two looked at each other, and were stunned for a moment.

"You also accepted the mission?"

"[Special Experiment], right?"

"That's right, that's it, do you know the mission content?"

"I don't know, I just arrived too."

"It's so mysterious, I like it so much."

The two gathered together to chat and exchange information, and their curiosity grew stronger.

Since coming to such a secret place as the headquarters, it must be no small matter.

At this moment, a group of mechanical soldiers came in pushing two devices similar to life-support cabins. The two mechanical soldiers took out the mask equipment that isolates the senses and handed it to the two players.

The leader of the mechanical soldier captain said in an emotionless voice: "Lie down in the cabin, put on a mask, and wait for the experiment to start."

The two players looked at each other in blank dismay, so they had no choice but to do so, restraining their curiosity and sleeping in the cabin.

Disco Elysium put on a mask and instantly plunged into darkness, deprived of sight, hearing, and smell. In this way, he had no way of knowing anything happening outside.

His hands and feet were bound tightly, and he couldn't move his whole body.

In this state, the waiting time is particularly difficult, and every minute and every second feels like a year.

Disco Elysium became more and more curious, and even had the urge to break free several times, take off the mask to see what happened, but the high failure penalty of this mission made him retreat a little.

I don't know how long it took, but when he was about to get impatient, a prompt popped up on the panel.

[Your B+ potential level ability [body strengthening · musculoskeletal inflation] has been deprived! ]

[You enter the [Ability Freeze] state, you cannot use any skills related to abilities]

[Duration: Infinite]

"W-what?!"

Bliss Disco froze for a moment, and suddenly his face paled.

Thanks to the lord who doesn't even know who I am for 200,000 rewards!

Thanks for the 30,000 rewards of water!

Thank you Mo VII for the 10,000 rewards!

Thank you Cang Yusu for the 10,000 rewards!
