The flying car slowly landed on the square of the Foreign Education College, and Xu Hao, Lu Ruoyun and Fenix got out of the flying car.

The eight students selected by Lu Ruoyun are from level 1 to level 3 civilizations, and they have been able to immigrate to the empire because of various opportunities, and while learning the advanced technology of the empire, they also hope to contribute to their hometown in the future, which can be said to be related to the rise and fall of their own race.

Just like Sun Peng and Owen, they carry the dream of earthlings entering the interstellar age. These eight students carry similar dreams to a greater or lesser extent.

They all work hard, but if they want to make a difference and get ahead in the empire, it is not enough to work hard, they also need opportunities. Climbing to a Force is the best opportunity.

Lu Ruoyun introduced Xu Hao to these eight students: "This is Xu Hao from the genius class of the Imperial Force Academy. ”

The eight students bowed together and moved in unison: "Hello, Mr. Xu! ”

"Hello everyone! Ruoyun, I don't know these brothers yet, you can introduce them. Xu Hao leaned back slightly.

Lu Ruoyun introduced these students: "This Ding Xiaoli, an expert in spacecraft power, is a third-year student majoring in large ship power. This Han Dongyi, a master of maintenance, led five maintenance robots to win the championship in the last maintenance simulation competition......"

"Okay, good," Xu Hao nodded again and again, "There are many talents, welcome everyone to join my small team." I, like everyone else, came to the Sima Empire from a low-level civilization, and I can understand everyone's ambitions, you are not fighting alone, and there are your people behind you. I, too, hope that I will live well in the Empire, and that I can benefit my people through my own efforts! ”

"I can't say how far I can take you, because the path of the Force is also full of thorns and bumpy treks. But since everyone has joined this team, they are part of this team, and everyone can share the benefits brought by a strong team. ”

These students are waiting for this sentence, they are willing to raise their heads to Xu Hao today, just hoping that one day they will be rewarded for their merits and deeds. If one day Xu Hao can be promoted to the Force Warrior, he will be divided into a continent as a territory by the empire, with a population of billions.

At that time, as long as Xu Hao had the best in his fingers, it was enough to promote the rise of a race.

The Force is the ruling class of the Empire, and the big men who will rise to prominence in the future. Of course, none of them was sure that Xu Hao would be promoted to Force Warrior, but they didn't have any choice, those children of the imperial nobles couldn't look down on them, only Xu Hao, who was also from the Savage Planet, was willing to recruit them.

Xu Hao said: "Then let's go." ”

Lu Ruoyun called two more taxi cars, and a group of thirteen people flew directly to the Science and Education Star Space Port in three flying cars.

Seven days later, they came to an administrative star on the edge of the empire's borders.

They stayed in a hotel, and all the staff gathered in Xu Hao's room, and Lu Ruoyun explained the plan.

"Our target is the Celestial, a planet where a large number of space pirates trade, managed by a level 4 civilization. That level 4 civilization is relatively strong, and the area around Tianxiang Star is quite safe.

"I plan to spend three million to rent a small spaceship to set off, and Xu Hao has already informed Huo Jinqi. Huo Jinqi sent people to send the two four-star Federation remote control mechas, and when we rented a spaceship, we met with Huo Jinqi's people on the way to get back the two remote control mechas. With these two mechs, we can barely see the force. ”

Owen frowned and said, "We are still short of manpower, even if we snatch a large armed spaceship on the Tianxiang Star, we can't drive it with just thirteen of us." ”

Ding Xiaoli said: "If you can drive, we will bring ten more robots, relying on the intelligent system of the spaceship, it is enough to drive a large armed ship." ”

"Even if you can barely drive, you don't have combat power to speak of."

Lu Ruoyun nodded and said, "That's one of the problems we want to solve here." I tend to pay for a mercenary, a mercenary of a level 3 or 4 civilization. Xu Hao is a citizen of the Sima Empire, and he came forward to find a mercenary, and I believe that there are still many mercenaries who are willing to take on the task. We select a team of reputable mercenaries. ”

Sun Peng thought for a while: "Then how to keep it secret?" ”

Lu Ruoyun looked at Xu Hao and said, "I don't think the mercenaries need to know what we do, as long as they can act according to orders, we don't need to tell the specific plan." ”

Xu Hao touched his chin and said, "Are there any alumni of the Force Academy on this planet?" I'd like to visit my seniors. If you want to find a reliable mercenary, I still believe in the recommendation of my seniors. ”

The students of the Force Academy are all over the empire, and each one of them is not too bad, and you can still find alumni relationships at critical moments.

Lu Ruoyun also considered this: "I have already found one, who graduated from the Force Academy fifteen years ago, and is currently the assistant to the chief consul of this planet. He has many acquaintances, and he has always been on the planet, familiar with the local situation. It's better to ask him to recommend mercenaries. ”

Xu Hao nodded: "Prepare a generous gift, and we will visit this senior tomorrow." ”

Lu Ruoyun said: "Don't worry, since we can drive the spaceship, in fact, we can grab the spaceship and find mercenaries here." ”

……

The next day, they rented a small spaceship at the spaceship rental market.

The small spaceship was small, about the same as an aircraft carrier on Earth, but it was enough for the thirteen of them.

Sun Peng, Ding Xiaoli and Han Dongyi went to the thrift market to buy more than a dozen scrapped robots, their level is really good, select scrapped robots to replace a few parts, and then repair them to restore normal use.

It only cost more than 7,000 credits in total to get more than a dozen robots, and these technical experts are still quite powerful.

The thirteen of them got on a small spaceship, took these dozen machines and set off for Tianxiangxing.

On the way, they got in touch with the people sent by Huo Jinqi, and the two spaceships met at the agreed place.

"Mr. Xu Hao, hello, Platoon Leader Huo asked me to send you two boxes of goods, and he said you know what they are."

"Thank you for your hard work, Platoon Leader Huo is okay this time."

"Okay, he's been thinking about you, Mr. Xu. Platoon Commander Huo is now spending energy preparing for the military exercise, hoping to get a good result and go further. ”

Waiting for the delivery person to leave, Xu Hao opened the two large boxes in the spaceship warehouse, and the two standard mecha of the four-star Federation were lying quietly inside, with a faint metallic luster.

Xu Hao took out the remote control helmet from the box and handed it to Lu Ruoyun and Fenix: "There are still a few days to fly on the road, you can get familiar with it again during this time." You are training Imperial mechs in the military academy, which is still a little different from the mechs of the four-star Federation after all, so you still need to take the time to familiarize yourself. ”
