As the saying goes, if you want to learn meat, you must be beaten first, and the bones of the whole body continue to be dozens of times, how can you have rough skin and thick meat.

Using this theory to send Nilo away, Han Xiao began to think about whether there was any dangerous work recently that could be used to obtain the [Perfect Mechanical Sense] on Nilo's body.

After thinking for two seconds, Han Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, the infrastructure of the three star clusters is nearing completion, and the second phase of the empire's exploration is about to begin, but there are some things for Nilo to do."

In six years, the three star clusters of Reynolds, Gaul and Crown Rings, which shine in the first phase of the world's project, have basically completed the basic construction, and all that is lacking is human population.

The commander-in-chief of the Exploration Army, Tarrokov, informed Han Xiao a few months ago, saying that the empire had begun preparations for the second phase of exploration, and it happened that tomorrow he would gather all allies for a meeting, and Han Xiao was also invited.

If I remember correctly, in the historical background of the previous life, the Red Empire encountered some unexpected and reasonable troubles in the second phase of exploration, and there were a large number of fighting opportunities, which just pulled Nilo's group of graduates over, which was called "blood and fire combat training".

…… High-level lucky life, the chance of turning the danger into a disaster should be quite large.

As soon as he thought of Nilo's current appearance, Han Xiao was angry, so dignified, he actually wanted to learn the way of the meat shield from me, you are a serious mechanic, hey!

The reason is not to be motivated, but to resist domestic violence?

Unpromising!

Why don't you learn from your godfather's and my vigorous and resolute style of life!

While thinking about it, Han Xiao informed his subordinates to arrange the accommodation of Nilo and other students, and then returned to the Divine Seat, and with a single thought, he issued a control command to the Mechanical Divine Seat.

Kerala –

The next moment, the dome of the room began to squirm, and the mechanical structure flowed from the inside out, as if something was about to be squeezed out of the depths.

The mechanical god itself is Han Xiao's palace, and in the mechanical god's body, all the structures are controlled by him at will.

Soon, a black mechanical polygon fell from the dome and floated in front of Han Xiao, about a meter in length, width and height.

Han Xiao touched one of the sections, and the touch was hot, which could make him feel hot, which meant that the temperature was indeed high enough.

An item introduction also pops up on the panel.

[Unknown core: Special mechanical parts, I don't know what they do, but they don't seem to be scrap]

"Alas, cosmic treasure-level machinery is really difficult to build." Han Xiao shook his head.

In the past six years, in addition to strengthening the mechanical legion, Han Xiao has also worked "quality", trying to create golden-quality (cosmic treasure-level) equipment.

The ability of the Divine Seat Mechanic definitely meets the manufacturing requirements, but even if he has the ability to create it, he may not be able to create a cosmic treasure, this thing is too uncertain, and it requires the cooperation of many factors to coordinate to a perfect state.

And the difficulty of the first level is the drawings.

Han Xiao does not have the blueprints of the cosmic treasure-level machinery in his hand, and the golden drawings can only be synthesized by the skill [Inspiration Creation] brought by the ultimate knowledge [Ultimate Mechanical Engineering], and Han Xiao's [Inspiration Creation] is still a gray unactivated skill, and the activation condition is that the [Ultimate Mechanical Engineering] reaches the full level of Lv5.

And [Inspiration Creation] is random, not to mention that in the previous life, no player announced the combination and matching of cosmic treasure-level drawings, even if you know the combination, the synthesis may not be the same thing.

Because he didn't have any drawings in his hand, Han Xiao tried to use his own technology to create freely, using a certain amount of [Simulation of Everything], but he still had no clue and created countless waste products, and this multilateral mechanical body was the only part that might be of some use.

So every day, the Han University technicians will take a plate of this multilateral mechanical body, hoping to find inspiration in it......

However, in the end, it was proved that this method had no effect other than psychological comfort.

"It's still too difficult to have no theories and drawings, and the inspiration creation is too random, maybe the Telx inheritance can give me gold-level drawings stably, but the level of the next inheritance drawings is level 360, which is still early." Han Xiao shook his head secretly.

……

On the other side, Nilo and his party left Han Xiao's mechanical god and returned to the outside world, landing on the fifth orbital mechanical planet, where the civilian personnel of the legion were already waiting, leading everyone to their residence.

Along the way, the students visited the base buildings everywhere, quite excited, chatting as if they were out for a tour.

Not only did they come to the mysterious shining world of interstellar rumors, but they also met the Legion Leader His Excellency Blackstar, and these first batch of academy graduates felt double happiness.

Many people gathered around Nilo to pay their respects, and most of them were girls.

As Blackstar's godson, Nilo has always been popular, and now in Legion territory, this is even more frequent.

"Your godfather is so handsome, I like that one, and I feel safe when I look at it."

"It's just that, that momentum makes people's little hearts thump, it's too exciting."

"I heard that His Excellency Black Star has never had a family, I don't know if they have that kind of need for a super A-level big man."

"Can you tell us a little bit more about what kind of person Lord Blackstar is?"

Nilo smiled awkwardly but politely, and said to himself:

- Damn, I thought you used to admire me, but I didn't expect you to want to be my godmother.

He has never been accustomed to the feeling of the stars holding the moon, and although the background is very hard, he has never been domineering...... Of course, this is inseparable from Renard's destruction.

In terms of education, Han Xiao has always been willing to call Renard the strongest, the small tree is not repaired, and Renard can make students feel the beating of society in the ivory tower, and they can't accept it.

Between the balls coming and going, Mia, who was standing next to Nilo, was almost squeezed out, couldn't bear it anymore, and her arrogance exploded!

"Don't squeeze! If you squeeze it any longer, I'll hit someone! ”

Hearing this, the surrounding classmates calmed down a lot, and they were still quite afraid of Mia.

Once Mia had a timid personality and was inconspicuous in the class, but I didn't expect that after the detection talent was assigned to the martial arts department, the whole person changed, becoming more and more straightforward and lively (irritable and spicy), and almost everyone was beaten by Mia when they competed in the academy...... Among them, Nilo was beaten the most, and even if he won the battle, he would have a blue nose and swollen face when he stepped down.

Learning martial arts can really cultivate violent tendencies...... Everyone couldn't help but sigh again.

Soon came to the residence, everyone was arranged in a room, and the civilian staff said that their work would be arranged after a while, and now let everyone stay in the Black Star Palace for a while.

Everyone found their rooms, and Nilo put down his things, and there was a knock on the window.

He turned his head to see Hardaway outside the window, driving a float motorcycle, floating outside the window.

"Hey, why are you ......" Nilo scratched his head, he knew all the guards around his godfather, and Hardaway had a good relationship with him.

"Stop talking nonsense, get in the car." Hardaway patted the back seat.

Nilo hesitated, straddled the motorcycle, and Hardaway immediately started the vehicle, and after a burst of lightning, stopped at the door of a building.

"This is ......" Nilo looked at the sign, rubbed his eyes, and said uncertainly, "Casino?" ”

"That's right, it's the casino."

"Wait! Why is there such a thing on the territory of the Legion? Who drove it? Nilo looked surprised.

"Who else could it be, of course me...... Ahem, our beloved Black Star is on. We, the guards officers, were with him, and we didn't have much to do, so how could we not have some fun, let me tell you, don't look at this as the second headquarters of the legion, in fact, the entertainment facilities here are very complete. ”

Hardaway threw the air-tos-side scooter and dragged Nilo in without saying a word, it was crowded with people, extremely lively, and a scorching heat wave floating in the air.

"What did you bring me for?" Nilo asked timidly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hardaway led him to a Venn table, changed a large number of chips, slapped them on the table, and then grabbed Nilo's neck with one hand, and laughed in his ear:

"Hehe, I've lost my salary here for a few years, and it's up to you to win it back."

Renard stayed in the Broken Star Ring to preside over the logistics department, and he couldn't meet each other all year round, while Fording was unbearable, and he had already blacked Hardaway, and among the rest of the people, Hardaway only knew Nilo, a guy who played cards well.

I finally caught the opportunity to turn the tables, how could I miss it!

"I-I'm still a kid...... Nilo twitched the corners of his mouth, looked up at the expressionless robot dealer behind the table, and swallowed.

He was very suspicious that Blackstar opened this in-house casino to recover the salaries of the legionn......

Worthy of being my godfather! Every mechanic who knows how to save costs is good!

……

The next day, shine the world lighthouse star, the commander's room.

The meeting of the allies of the second phase of the Empire's exploration will be held as scheduled, and the remote projections will gather in the conference room, all of which are big names from the Red Empire's factions, allied civilizations such as Krent, diplomatic high-ranking officials of affiliated civilizations, and many super A-level allies.

As soon as Han Xiao's remote projection arrived, many old acquaintances greeted him.

"Yo, Blackstar is here."

"Come here, sit next to me, and leave a place for you."

After the incident six years ago, Han Xiao achieved a higher status in the super A-level circle of the empire and was quite popular.

These super A-level people only need to think about it a little to know the empire's attitude towards Black Star, and anyone with a discerning eye knows that he is eighty percent the pillar of the next generation of super A-level combat power, so their attitude towards him is much warmer.

Not to mention the friends of Lao Long and Beoni, there were also Ravenlaud, Maxirol, Viru, Swordsman Fu and others present, and Han Xiao also saw Hebber.

Of course, Heber would not greet him, and with a snort, he twisted his head to the side, out of sight and out of mind.

As soon as he saw Hebbar, Han Xiao thought of the development of the Legion in the Broken Star Ring, in the past six years, with the help of the Infinite Consortium, the War Domain was still competing with the Black Star Legion in various fields, and while competing with each other, both sides were encroaching on other forces, and the business scope had grown a lot, and they couldn't help each other.

The Sprout Consortium has developed rapidly, and has become a representative consortium of the Black Star Legion, becoming a pawn, competing for the Legion in the business field and the Infinite Consortium, Interpulse and some other talents have sat in the position of senior executives through excellent performance, and the work results are outstanding, with the behind-the-scenes support of the Black Star Legion, the Sprout Consortium has become a first-class interstellar consortium in just six years.

On the Red Empire's side, it has also done some business expansion in the Broken Star Ring, providing help in disguise. The pressure brought by the Infinite Consortium, the Black Star Legion has temporarily withstood it, but since the Infinite Consortium has entered the market of the Broken Star Ring, it will not withdraw easily, and it has become a strong competitor, and the tail is too big to drive away.

Han Xiao responded to the super A-level who greeted him one by one, and finally sat between Lao Long and Maximal, chatting with the front and back, left and right, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

The super A-class formed a small circle of its own, and the representatives of other civilizations were far away, and no one sat around this group of bigwigs.

Before the meeting began, everyone was chatting with each other, just like the class before the bell rang.

After waiting for a while, the people finally arrived, and Tarrokov was late, walked to the podium, coughed twice, and let everyone look over.

"You've been waiting for a long time, now that everyone is here, let's get started."

The field fell silent in the middle of the field, and everyone's eyes focused on him.

Tarrokov pressed the podium, and a huge virtual screen popped up behind him, showing a star map that shone brightly in the world. Now, the green area that represents the explored area has expanded, and the four star clusters of Dawn, Reynolds, Gaul, and the Crown Ring have been lit up.

"All of you here are old acquaintances, so I won't introduce them too much, let's get straight to the topic...... As you can see, the first phase of exploration and construction has taken us about ten years, and the infrastructure construction is progressing smoothly and is about to come to a successful conclusion, and the second phase of the Empire's exploration is already on the agenda. ”

As he spoke, Tarrokov pressed the screen and circled two unexplored star clusters.

"These two star cluster regions are the targets of our second phase of exploration, namely the Russo Cluster and the Light Dust Cluster."

The spirits of the crowd were lifted.

The two star clusters are next to each other in the area explored in the first phase, among which the Russo Cluster, where Han Xiao obtained the amber of space-time, is adjacent to the Gaul Star Cluster, while Guangchen is bordered by Reynolds and the crown ring.

"The second phase explores one less area than the first one?" Someone asked.

Tarrokov nodded and slowly explained:

"Yes, there are many reasons for this, and there are two direct factors, one is that the first phase of the area needs to be continued, the infrastructure construction is just the beginning, and there are more places to be improved later, so it will involve a lot of manpower and resources.

The second reason is that from the second phase of exploration, we will take a new way of exploring, and the exploration and construction will be carried out at the same time, because there is more work to be done, so we have reduced the scope of the second phase of exploration. ”

Looking around, Tarrokov saw that everyone had no doubts, so he knocked on the table and continued: "And there are more people involved in the second phase of exploration than in the first phase, please see the list for details, I won't repeat it here." ”

The table in front of each person becomes a screen with a list of the forces of the second phase of exploration.

Han Xiao glanced at it, this scale was much larger than the first phase, and the new forces were more subordinate civilizations, as well as hired interstellar engineering teams.

In the first phase of exploration, not all allies are eligible to participate, such as those weaker subordinate civilizations, which are not considered by the empire, and now that the second phase begins, the empire needs to share the cost, so it will have to summon more younger brothers in.

According to this situation, it was opened to the public in the fourth phase...... Han Xiao nodded secretly.

Only the first phase is the best opportunity for these super A-level allies to seize the opportunity, and the more people participate in the future, the more benefits will be divided.

Tarrokov waited for everyone to read the list before continuing: "The precautions for the second phase of exploration have been compiled into a manual, and will soon be sent to every participating force, everyone must read it, we have added some new clauses to the rules of the first phase, and it has become more strict in terms of exploration." ”

Hearing this, many super A-level people glanced at each other and nodded secretly.

The loose rules of the first phase of exploration are precisely what the empire deliberately intended to allow them to obtain additional benefits, and for these subordinate civilizations, the rules will naturally become stricter.

"Super A-class allies." At this time, Tarrokov looked over and said with a smile: "The second phase of exploration is directly assigned by the empire, and you can't choose your own goals, please forgive me." ”

The crowd had no objections, and nodded for Tarrokov to continue.

Sure enough, the empire will eventually take control...... Han Xiao shook his head, so it was inconvenient for him to give full play to the advantages of opening the full picture.

However, he has already got the most valuable space-time amber in his hands, it doesn't matter if he chooses it or not, anyway, according to his understanding of the second phase of exploration, no matter what tasks the empire assigns to him now, he will eventually be called up to deal with an indigenous advanced civilization.

He remembered the historical background of his previous life - in the second phase of exploration, the Red Empire encountered a high-level civilization, located in the Bright Dust Star Cluster.

For some reason, this high-level civilization is hostile to the Empire and is not so easy to deal with, even causing problems for the Imperial Exploration Army.

In the first phase, I encountered a galaxy-level native civilization, and this high-level civilization has already reached the star cluster level...... Of course, the cluster level without the support of the interstellar society is an incomplete definition, but it is indeed very powerful, and it is different from the frog at the bottom of the well that I encountered before.

If the normal way of contact is followed, the empire may not use force against it, but behind this, there are other forces at work.

The "Nilo Trial Plan" formulated by Han Xiao was aimed at this high-level civilization that was shining in the world.
