Krakala –

The sound of mechanical assembly echoes in the private workshop, and the electric power of the flickering machine is like a flexible blue tentacle, and the robotic arm is controlled to create a new emperor mecha.

Han Xiao was engrossed in watching the details of the mecha be perfected step by step in his hands.

The last outer armor plate was embedded in the emperor's chest, and the panel suddenly clinked, and a hint popped up.

[You have crafted Golden Quality Equipment (Cosmic Treasure)]

"Hoo ......"

Han Xiao's tense expression relaxed, and he slowly exhaled.

This is the second golden-quality Emperor Mecha, Rao has the successful experience of the last time, as well as the bonuses of [Divine Artifact] and [Cosmic Treasure Maker], he also tried five times before finally succeeding, but it was a little less than the first failure.

This new emperor mecha, Han Xiao plans to throw it to Hela, although it is an exclusive equipment for mechanics, Hela cannot enjoy bonuses, but Han Xiao only needs its directional teleportation function to provide security for Hela.

And two pieces are not enough, Han Xiao has to build a few sets of spare emperors for himself, maybe he will have to prepare one for Ames, and the amount of work is still second, mainly because the cost is very large.

An emperor is equivalent to the cost of the fleet, if it does not reach the golden quality, it is undoubtedly a loss, he currently cannot guarantee to create a cosmic treasure-level emperor every time, and he will inevitably waste several times the Inar, even if the Black Star Legion is rich and rich, this part of the cost will also make him feel painful.

"Alas, as a mechanic, the ability to make money will not be impossible." Han Xiao sighed.

He glanced at the attribute panel, because it was the second time to create an emperor, so the [Divine Spirit Weapon] did not feedback new divine transformation points, nor did it unlock a new layer of bonuses, but only provided a washing point effect.

Because it was the same drawing, this time the washing efficiency was reduced, from 200 points to 160 points for the first time. It's a pity that I didn't wash my luck this time, and the hope of a white ticket was disappointed, but it was washed to the charm attribute, which is not bad, anyway, I have always been shameless...... Ahem, don't look at the face.

The 160 free attribute continued to be saved, and Han Xiao stuffed the second set of emperors into the special maintenance box for the mecha, and found a mechanical guard to send it to Hela along with the box.

It is worth mentioning that this special mecha maintenance box is also orange equipment, which can warm the mecha, and after a long time, it will improve a certain basic attribute of the mecha.

After all this, Han Xiao rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist, he was not idle in 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, and he had been liver for many days.

"Relax and watch people play cards."

Han Xiao knocked on his back and was about to open the door and walk out, when suddenly the communicator rang, showing that it was a high-ranking official of the Red Empire.

"The empire is finally willing to call, is this finally finalizing the plan for dealing with me?"

Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and when he connected the communication, a remote projection of a high-ranking official appeared in front of him, this is the person in charge who has been in contact with the super A-level all the year round, and he is also familiar with Han Xiao.

"Your Excellency Blackstar." The high-ranking officials of the empire saluted and said, "It's been a long time. ”

"Hello." Han Xiao nodded, pretending not to know and asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

"Well, I know you like to be direct, so I won't waste your time, it's the top of the empire that is preparing to release a plan related to you, and I want to ask your opinion and negotiate it."

"What's the plan?"

"The Empire intends to temporarily disclose the purchase rights of the Evolution Totem, which is no longer limited to the subscription of allies, but is free to sell to the entire universe, because the Evolution Cubes are the source of energy, in your hands, so the Empire wants to know your attitude." The Imperial dignitaries smiled.

Han Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and a surge of ecstasy surged up.

Although he had already guessed this possibility, he was still very excited when he confirmed it.

All along, the Red Empire controlled the sales channels of the Evolution Totem and was not allowed to enter the free market, but could only be sold to allied civilizations, which was Han Xiao's agreement with the Empire. And if the sales restrictions are lifted, then every civilization in the universe will become customers, which will bring immeasurable huge profits.

And this is not a one-shot deal, the evolution totem runs for a maximum of twenty years, and after the energy is consumed, it needs to be charged with the evolution cube, which is the same as refueling, so the follow-up maintenance costs are a steady stream of huge benefits, and it is completely a cornucopia of super profiteering business opportunities.

The Red Empire is stuck with the open purchase right, just to control this income in its hands, that is, to get the energy source evolution cube from Han Xiao's hands, and is unwilling to let a non-direct ally control such an important strategic treasure, so the two sides have been arguing on this issue, and the relationship has a certain rift.

And the empire's willingness to open the purchase channels of the evolution totem at this time is to finally make concessions and take the initiative to ease the relationship between the two sides, the reason for this is undoubtedly the impact of the Black Star God War, and it is willing to hand over the huge profits to Han Xiao temporarily.

Although excited, Han Xiao still caught a word: "Temporarily open?" How long exactly? ”

The senior official of the empire shook his head, "I don't know about this, and there should be no end date set on it." ”

In other words, if you do something bad, it can end at any time, right......

Han Xiao knew in his heart that the empire's move was not only a means of co-optation, but also a means of indirect control, and when he got used to the huge profits, or the expanded legion could not do without the capital flow brought by this business, the empire would have a new channel to control itself. He also understands this, after all, it is a cosmic-level civilization, never think about making people bow down, this is completely impossible, people are willing to give in, they are willing to respect you and value you, which is good enough.

"Okay, I don't have any objections, when will it open?" Han Xiao responded.

"The time has not yet been decided, and 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 statement of this decree will be issued to the whole universe, so we need to quickly negotiate the income distribution plan." The high-ranking official of the empire replied.

Because the previous plan was mainly to deal with the empire and the forces of the allies, there were many discounts, and for the sale of the whole universe, whether it was Han Xiao or the empire, they wanted to raise the price significantly to make money from outsiders, so they had to reformulate the distribution plan.

"That's right...... Then I'll have my commercial team contact you and try to negotiate a suitable outcome as soon as possible. Han Xiao thought for a while and said.

The budding consortium affiliated with the legion has a group of business negotiators, which can come in handy in this matter, and Interpais, as a senior executive of the consortium, is a good hand in this regard.

Since he has mastered the evolution cube, the bulk of the profit must be on his side, but the empire also scores some money, after all, people have helped bear the pressure for so long, and it can't be treated as if nothing happened. Moreover, in the future, the Red Empire will need to provide assistance in logistics, transportation, and raw materials, after all, the market in the whole universe is too large, and the current Black Star Legion alone cannot cover the entire universe.

After the two discussed, Han Xiao hung up the communication, and he was in a good mood when he thought that the legion was about to get a channel of huge profits that would continue to come in.

Suddenly, a long-standing thought came to mind, Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a playful sneer:

"When the Crimson Empire announces this decree, I can make a trip to the Infinite Consortium...... Hmph, I think that if I withdraw the commercial suppression of me now, it can be regarded as if the previous thing did not happen, how can there be such a good thing. ”

……

Emerald Star Cluster, Beast Ancestor Stronghold, Combat Training Ground.

Boom!

The fist that curved like a leopard's claw wrapped around the pale black channel aura and struck hard at the abdomen of a fleshy body, and the skin and muscles of the hit site rippled in a circle under the huge force, and the air shock wave burst out. A burly figure was knocked out by the blow, and the momentum was like a cannonball, slamming into the wall of the training ground, making a thud and filling the smoke and dust.

Sneike withdrew his fist, and the highly poisonous pale black aura dissipated, and said lightly: "Don't fight, let's stop today." ”

After all, he didn't look at the die-hard party cadres who took the initiative to ask for a fight but were easily defeated by himself, put on the windbreaker that was thrown aside, and walked out of the training ground.

In normal times, Sneik is too lazy to respond to other people's challenges, but he has been in a bad mood lately and wants to vent with a fight.

The thought of everyone being grounded by the Secret Master and not allowed to leave the stronghold made Sneek lament.

"Didi."

At this moment, the communicator rang, and Sneck glanced at it, but it was a call from his eldest sister, Jottina, whom he had always respected.

As soon as she connected, Jyotina shouted and spoke, her voice dissatisfied: "I invited you to leave the Beast Ancestor Organization together, you said to wait and see, I agreed, but after so long, you haven't left with your brothers and sisters?" What's the matter with you, little brother? ”

Sneike looked helpless and whispered: "Sister, it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that there was some accident." ”

"What accident?" Jotina frowned.

"It's Your Excellency the Secret Master...... Sneik thought of the magic imprint used for surveillance on his body, suddenly paused, and engaged in a psychological struggle before gritting his teeth and deciding to tell the truth: "He said that he would take over the Beast Ancestor's troops and let all of us serve him, now no one can leave the Beast Ancestor's stronghold, and I am also trapped here." ”

Jyotina was furious and hated that iron could not become steel, "I want you to leave early, you cowardice don't listen, now it's okay, it's really a waste!" Litter! Shame on the old lady! ”

She scolded and scolded, but Sneike was submissive, unable to refute it, and did not dare to fight back.

The hatred of the rebellious faction towards Gorutan basically stems from the tragic experience of his biological mother, so it is more humane than the other two factions, and there is a real brotherhood and sisterhood between some of them.

Jyotina scolded for a while, and when she saw Sneike's depressed face, she couldn't bear it, and asked, "If you are not willing to serve the secret master all the time, you can run away if you find an opportunity in the future." ”

Sneike shook his head and sighed: "The secret master said that running away without permission is regarded as a betrayal, he has left a magic imprint on us, even if we dare to escape without permission, how can we escape the pursuit of the super A-class." ”

For her brothers and sisters who she recognizes, Jyotina has a warm heart, and she can't bear to see Sneike being forced to be loyal to the secret master, so she struggled for a while, and suddenly spoke:

"I ask you, would you like to join the Blackstar Legion?"

"Of course I do, but I don't have a chance now." Sneck sighed.

Hearing this, Jyotina gritted her teeth and said decisively: "Don't worry, I'll find a way to ask the legion commander for help!" ”

After that, she didn't wait for Snick to answer, and hung up the call in a hurry.

Sneck held up the busy communicator with a helpless expression.

"Ask Blackstar for help? How could it be......"

He sighed, not counting at all.

Just think about it, these people are the subordinates of the Beast Ancestor, but they have the intention of defecting verbally, and they are not the Black Star Legion's own people, how can the Black Star offend another peak super A level for the sake of a few natural disasters for them.

……

The former palace of the Beast Ancestor has been reduced to the place where the Secret Lord stays.

Gorutan's huge throne has been put into an alchemy storage bottle by the Mystic Master, and when the loot is collected, the throne he brought with him has replaced Gorutan's seat.

At this moment, the secret master was sitting on the throne, flipping through the information of the Beast Ancestor cadres, and Bairam Hou was on the side, answering questions at any time.

At this moment, the secret master's communicator rang, and he glanced at it, and his expression suddenly became serious.

This expression as if he was facing a great enemy made Baram stunned, and secretly guessed whose call it was that made the secret master's expression change greatly.

At this time, the secret master waved his hand and said coldly, "You go out first." ”

Hearing this, although Byram was curious, he could only retreat and leave, although he thought he was the new henchman of the secret master, he did not dare to exceed the rules.

He was the only one left in the room, and the secret master connected the communication with a solemn expression.

"Blackstar, what are you looking for me to do?"

The words fell, and Han Xiao's hearty laughter came from the communicator.

"Hahaha, Secret Master, you seem to be a little nervous."

"You're thinking too much."

The secret master's brain was running rapidly, although he wanted to befriend Black Star, but at this moment, he received the other party's active communication, and he couldn't help but feel like a thief.

Han Xiao smiled, "Although we had a conflict over the issue of Chaos Secret Energy, the matter has been resolved, and there is no grudge between us, you say yes, I also did you a great favor." ”

"What's the busy?"

"Is this still to be asked? It must be the Beast Ancestor, didn't you remind me at the beginning, didn't you just want to block Gorutan, he and you are both black market protectors, there must be some conflict of interest, I helped you solve him, so that you can seize his market, didn't it do you a great favor? ”

"Indeed, you helped me indirectly." The Secret Master did not deny it.

"Since I've done you a favor, I just need you to do me a favor too." Han Xiao blinked, and said with a meaningful smile: "I heard that you are taking over the Beast Ancestor's troops, don't worry, I have no interest in those crooked melons and cracked dates who regard me as an enemy, and you want to take it with you...... However, there seem to be some good people in it who want to abandon the darkness and defect to me, these people, don't stop you. ”

The secret master's eyes changed slightly, and he was a little reluctant to let go of these natural disaster-level cadres.

And if this opening is opened, then there will always be some cadres who will use defection to the black star as an excuse, so will he release people or not? In this way, the harvest of taking over the Beast Ancestor Army by himself will be greatly reduced at once, and many natural disaster-level talents will inevitably be lost.

But since Black Star called, he knew that he was deducting people, if he didn't agree, I was afraid that he would offend Black Star, and Black Star must be very tough recently, maybe it will intensify the conflict, he still wants to make friends, but he doesn't want to lose a big deal because of a small loss.

Although the secret master felt pity in his heart, he did not hesitate at this time, he was not willing to offend the black star who was in the limelight for some natural disaster-level cadres, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, as long as someone wants to defect to you, I will let him go." ”

"That's great~" Han Xiao really laughed at this time.

The two pressed their inner emotions and chatted for a while pretending to be good brothers, and then hung up the phone.

As soon as he put down the communicator, the face of the secret lord fell, and it was not very good-looking, so he summoned Bairam and ordered:

"You bring Snyck's men here."

Baram was a little confused, but he complied.

Soon, Sneike and a group of other cadres of the rebellious faction gathered in the palace, staring at the secret master on the throne with complicated, helpless, and unhappy eyes.

The secret lord was expressionless and asked slowly, "Which of you wants to defect to the Black Star Legion?" ”

There was a slight commotion in the crowd, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what the secret master was doing?

Could it be that this is a temptation, wanting to make an example of the monkey and completely dispel our idea of defecting to others?

Everyone immediately became vigilant, feeling that they had guessed the truth, and immediately expressed their loyalty.

"How is it possible, we are all willing to accept the protection of His Excellency the Secret Master."

"Everyone here is a brother, and they speak nicely, I like it so much, how can I go to someone else."

Seeing this scene, the secret master only felt that the egg hurt.

If he treated other people, he could use this method to prevaricate, saying that no one wanted to defect, but the secret master did not intend to play tricks to perfunctory Black Star, and he was depressed.

The situation at this time can be summarized as follows......

Everyone: Daddy, we really don't want to go to Blackstar.

Secret Master: No, you think, get out of here and recognize Daddy.

Taking a deep breath, the secret master calmed down, suddenly released his momentum, and said in a deep voice: "Less nonsense, if you want to defect to the Black Star, I won't stop you, I'm not joking with you, if you want to leave, get out of here." ”

The people who were showing their loyalty felt a strong pressure, and they were stunned when they found that the secret master did not look like a temptation.

What's the matter, wasn't it still grounded some time ago, why did you suddenly want to let us go.

Is the secret master so fickle?

Byram's eyes changed, thinking of the call just now, and now thinking about it, it must be Black Star who called.

It took a few words to make the secret master compromise, and the secret master was so jealous of the black star......

Byram was secretly frightened.

In the crowd, Sneik suddenly thought of the call with Jhotina two hours ago, and suddenly gasped.

"Can't be wrong, it must be the handiwork of Black Star, otherwise there is no way to explain it......"

He found that the secret master's face was not good-looking, and he must have been reluctant to make this decision.

Sneike secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a storm set off in his heart.

In his opinion, Jyotina had just joined the legion, and it was impossible for him to have the right to speak, so Black Star did not hesitate to offend the secret master, and eighty percent of it was out of his attention to them.

Although he didn't know if he guessed right, Sneike couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart, and he felt the urge to die for his confidant.

“…… It seems that Jiottina is right, Blackstar is indeed a figure worth running to. ”

……

Because it was a private transaction, the departure of Sneike and others did not set off any waves.

And seven or eight days later, a decree issued by the Red Empire without warning suddenly detonated the enthusiasm of the entire universe and stunned the eyes of countless people.

The content of the decree is simple, the Empire has decided to open the purchase of the Evolution Totem to the entire universe in one year!

It has not been a day or two since the three major civilizations have been fighting around the evolution totem, and as soon as this statement was released, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, set off an uproar, and countless civilizations were excited and crazy.

It's a dead life, and the empire has finally opened its mind!

The whole universe knows that the Red Empire will not be untargeted, and the sudden decision to make such a decision must be inseparable from recent events.

And as we all know, the only cosmic-level event that has happened recently is the Battle of the Black Star Gods!

The causal relationship that exists between the two events is something that even ordinary people can figure out.

- The empire abruptly opened the right to purchase the evolution totem, but it was shocked by the success of the black star, so it compromised with the black star and took the initiative to give in, allowing the black star with the evolution cube to control the evolution totem business!

A cosmic-level civilization, especially a stubborn boss like the Red Empire, has actually made concessions to a super A-class!

It's been a scene I haven't seen in years?!

Figuring this out, countless interstellar citizens and civilized forces were shocked.

On the other hand, the brilliance and the void are not surprised.

The Black Star is powerful, so as to impress the Red Empire's open evolution totem, for which we folded a few super A-level seems to be worth it.

We're on the wrong track!

I knew that I shouldn't have put pressure on the empire and the black star, and sent a bunch of heads to the black star early to let him perform as a super god, so the plan to evolve the totem would have succeeded a long time ago?!

An imperial decree set off a frenzy of public opinion in the whole universe, and Han Xiao's record was already hot, but at this moment, it skyrocketed again, and his personal prestige jumped to the point of shocking for a while, and before the popularity of this matter dropped, he alone overwhelmed all other super A-level lights.

And when the rumors were boiling in the outside world, the Infinite Consortium quietly ushered in an uninvited guest in the branch of the shining world.
