  Even with Han Xiao’s current status, it was not easy for him to obtain a Universe Grade Legendary Point.

  However, Han Xiao did have a Universe Grade Legendary Point right now: Enemy of the Arcane!

  Han Xiao’s mouth contorted. Was it truly a blessing in disguise?

  After roaming through the universe for so many years, he only had a single Universe Grade Legendary Point. It could be seen just how rare it was.

  He did not have any Mission Completion Cards on hand, and he originally thought that he would be stuck at the Lv.280 Promotion Mission. Who would have thought that he would be lucky this time?

  Han Xiao then burst into laughter.

  Hehe, I really need to thank the Arcane Church for giving me a Legendary Point.

  Right, I also need to thank Feidin…

  Upon thinking about Feidin, Han Xiao’s hands grew a little itchy.

  This was a surprise that dropped from the sky, and Han Xiao chose to complete the mission without hesitation.

  _____________________

  Han Xiao’s eyes glowed with a blue bolt of lightning, and he spat out a cloud of bluish gas.

  Since there was no race evolution this time, there was not much pain throughout the whole process.

  He looked down to see if there were any changes to his body. From the outside, there were not many changes. He had grown slightly taller, and his muscles looked more toned.

  He then felt his head itch slightly and grabbed a bunch of hair off from his head while scratching it.

  “I’m shedding hair‽”

  Han Xiao was shocked and immediately summoned his mirror to take a look, but after getting a clear look, he heaved a sigh of relief.

  His Promotion stimulated his metabolism and improved the cell structure of his entire body. As such, his original hair fell out, and new hair grew out. However, the hair that had dropped was still stuck in his head, which explained why he felt the itch.

  “Thankfully, my thick black hair is still around.”

  Han Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. For a moment, he thought that he had walked the evil path of exchanging his hair for power. The balder he got, the more powerful he would become.

  The upper limit of the Lord Mechanic class was level 40, and he would complete his Class Advancement when he reached level 200. The next race evolution was also at level 300, and level 280 was just an ordinary Promotion in the middle.

  However, 52,000 Ona seemed to be a stable boundary. Not all Beyond Grade As were able to reach 52,000 Ona, and the few talents that he had obtained felt like the basic abilities of a new realm.

  After learning [Endless Material Science] and [Virtual Creator], his Energy Rank rapidly approached 52,000 Ona, and he finally broke through the boundary after increasing his level.

  Han Xiao then looked at his new abilities and verified his guess.

  Although he did not experience a race evolution, every Promotion was also an increase to his realm. Going past 52,000 Ona meant entering a new realm, and every life form that reached this realm would receive the same talents.

  [Strengthened Elemental Resistance] boosted his attributes like [Perfect Mechanical Sense], and its multiplier was 1.25.

  [Optimized Energy Usage] reduced the energy and stamina consumption of all his skills to 27%.

  [High Grade Life Vitality] increased the upper limit of his health and recovery rate. His health increased by 17%, and his recovery rate increased by 120%.

  These three talents strengthened his basic ability to take damage, which was something that all classes required.

  The only skill, [Mighty Prestige], was a halo type ability that could be turned on and off. A life form at a higher realm was capable of emanating pressure, and this had turned into a skill.

  The suppression would cover a certain region, and the individuals within the region would be affected by it, inflicting a negative status to reduce their attributes. However, it was only useful to life forms with intelligence, and certain life forms that were immune to mental skills were immune toward it, such as Mechanical Lives. It was useless against individuals of the same level.

  After thinking for a while, Han Xiao concluded that the skill was completely useless apart from bullying noobs. But if he wanted to bully noobs, a Mechanic like him would not need a halo like this. He could just have a team fight.

  The three talents that he had obtained were still much better.

  Although this was only an ordinary Promotion, the increase to his strength was still pretty good.

  His base Endurance boost was one Endurance point to 410 Health. The increase from his other abilities included an additional 60 from [Advanced Strengthened Life], 140 from [Eternal Body], 50 from Grade S boost, 10% health from [Extraordinary Physique], 17% health from [High Grade Life Vitality], and 100 health from [Well Trained].

  For his Mechanical Force, he also had various different talents and skills to convert Intelligence to Machinery Affinity.

  He then threw all his Free Attribute Points into Intelligence and looked at his attributes with satisfaction.

  _____________________

  The remark is so solemn this time.

  Han Xiao rubbed his muscles and tried to get used to the changes.

  Now that he was at Grade S+, he was still considered Beyond Grade A despite the growth in his strength. His strength did not achieve such a huge change like when he went from the Calamity Grade to Beyond Grade A. Because there was no clear distinction between the combat strength of the Beyond Grade As and the grades within the Beyond Grade A realm being slowly figured out, the realm was segmented into mini realms.

  Just like how everyone thought that the Calamity Grade was the upper limit of strength during the early days of the exploration era, the people now felt that Beyond Grade A was the limit of an individual’s strength. EsGod wanted to break through the current limits just like the Primordial Ones did and raise his strength to a whole new realm.

  After his promotion, the amount of experience required to level up increased yet again. Han Xiao knew that it would be impossible for him to save up enough experience to reach level 300 quickly. After all, he used the faction store to earn the players’ experience, and even if he could earn experience quickly, he needed the time to accumulate it. Currently, the players had already learned plenty of knowledge, and the experience that they provided had begun to stagnate.

  Han Xiao was not prepared to continue w
aiting. He had already been in seclusion for a few months, and it was better for him to get rid of EsGod as quickly as possible.

  He had crafted many pieces of equipment that were made specially to deal with EsGod, and as long as the dynasty was willing to help him, he would have some confidence to kill EsGod.

  “I haven’t contacted the dynasty at all during this period. I wonder how matters are still unsettled between them and the Arcane Church. If they have come to an agreement already, they should have the capacity to deal with EsGod.”

  Han Xiao then took out his communicator and was about to ask about the dynasty’s situation.

  Right at this moment, Phillip suddenly appeared.

  “Master, hum… Someone sent me an encrypted message just now.”

  “Sending an encrypted message to me? Decrypt it and see who sent it.”

  “I can’t decrypt it alone; that’s why I came to you.”

  Han Xiao’s eyes narrowed. Phillip was a capable assistant, and since Phillip was unable to decrypt the information, it meant that the other party was not a simple individual. They had to be at the Star Cluster level at the very least.

  “What is said in the encrypted message?”

  “They said that they are the descendants of Spacetime Freezer and want to talk to you face to face.”

  Han Xiao was stunned, and his expression changed slightly.

  When he was searching for information regarding the Spacetime Amber, he remembered the current state of the Spacetime Freezer race.

  So… the Federation of Light is looking for me?

  Since they have chosen to send the Spacetime Freezer race over, are they trying to hint to me that they are aware of the Spacetime Amber’s origins?

  Han Xiao then pondered for a moment before instructing, “Reply to them. I agree to meet them.”

  Chapter 881 - Whereabouts

  Phillip sent out a message and received a reply a few seconds later.

  “Master, hum… They would like to meet you privately. You can decide the time and place.”

  “If that’s the case…” Han Xiao contemplated.

  This matter was a little sensitive since the Federation of Light had come to find him. However, Beyond Grade A allies were not subordinates of a Universal Civilization, and he had a certain degree of freedom and rights. Even if the dynasty knew about the meeting between them, it was not a big deal.

  Han Xiao thought for a few seconds before saying, “Tell them that I don’t accept a private meeting. I temporarily do not wish to have a ‘shared secret’ with them. Invite them over to the Black Star Army as guests. They can come if they are willing, but there isn’t a need to meet them if they aren’t.”

  The other party was the one who took the initiative to find him, and he did not do anything wrong. It would not be good for him to behave sneakily. Thus, he might as well invite them over to his territory openly. If not, it would seem as though he was concocting some secret plan with the Federation of Light, which would attract more misunderstandings.

  The second mission of the Spacetime Amber was for him to come into contact with the descendants of Spacetime Freezer. Because the Federation of Light was protecting that race, Han Xiao had not completed the mission yet. But since the other party was taking the initiative to request a meeting, Han Xiao treated it as a small surprise, and it would save him quite a bit of energy.

  However, he could not seem too anxious. Since the other party had taken the initiative to meet him, the rules would be set by him.

  After sending out an invitation, the Federation of Light did not give a reply as though they were considering it.

  Han Xiao was not too anxious. He then took out his communicator and called Tarrokov.

  Tarrokov appeared, and he said with a smile, “Black Star, you have the time to contact me already?”

  “Haha, chief commander, how are things recently?”

  “Sigh, it’s still the same as always. We are still eating dirt in the Flickering World. When will you come back to continue your exploration?”

  “In a while.”

  “Hurry up then. The first exploration phase will end in a few years, and we will enter the construction phase. We will only start off our second exploration after digesting the territories of the three Star Clusters.”

  Han Xiao then chatted casually with the other party for a while before saying with a serious expression, “I haven’t contacted the outside world during this period, and the negotiations should have been going on for a few months already. Has the dynasty reached an agreement with the Arcane Church?”

  “There shouldn’t be any problem.” Tarrokov nodded. “Although both parties look like they are in conflict on the surface, they have already come to an agreement in private. The only thing that is left are the details of the agreement. The Arcane Church paid a heavy price in order to ransom their experts, but the exact figure is confidential. I can only say that the other party made huge concessions in military, economic, and political affairs. They also released some of their technological skills. In any case, the dynasty promised the Arcane Church to release three Beyond Grade As—Dylan, Taylor, and Mercer. Only Sagman is still in our hands as a bargaining chip.”

  Han Xiao nodded.

  The foundation of a civilization was their people, and the conflicts between the civilizations were usually because of status and resources. Compared to the long history of a civilization, every Beyond Grade A was no more than a shooting star in a part of their history. Returning three Beyond Grade A captives in exchange for resources was a trade that the dynasty was extremely willing to do. At the same time, it could be said that the three Universal Civilizations were on the same tide. Despite having their own conflicts, it was impossible for any party to wipe out the others. Apart from their conflicts, it was also important for them to suppress the civilizations beneath them and maintain order.

  “Right, how did they deal with the Spacetime Amber?” Han Xiao asked.

  As the Arcane Church researched the Spacetime Amber, the name of the Spacetime Amber had spread throughout the universe, and every large organization was now aware of it. The two Universal Treasures in Black Star’s hands were the Evolution Cube and Spacetime Amber. As such, Black Star had a special status in the universe.

  “The Arcane Church isn’t able to break the seal and wants to invite the dynasty to help them. The dynasty dragged the matter on and didn’t contact you, so you are still unaware about it.”

  “Does the dynasty plan to agree to it?”

  “Hmm, the Arcane Church is willing to pay the price, and the dynasty is going to ask you to unseal one of the captives. They also want you to make a trip to the Central Galaxy.”

  “Alright.” Han Xiao nodded. The players now had the Gulal Civilization and Flickering World, so they were having the time of their lives. He would not need to interfere with the players until the end of Version 3.0, so he would be free.

  Furthermore, he was also prepared to head to the Central Galaxy and find some helpers to deal with EsGod.

  “I would like to ask, has the dynasty found EsGod yet?”

  “We have found some clues. Some eyewitnesses claim to have seen the Fallen Ark at the Primeval Star River. The wormhole cluster in the Shattered Star Ring should have sent them there.”

  “As long as their whereabouts are known,” Han Xiao said. “The Arcane Church has already given in, and the dynasty can only channel some manpower to deal with the accomplice EsGod.”

  Tarrokov observed Han Xiao’s appearance and said with a smile, “I feel as though you are extremely determined to kill EsGod.”

  “That’s right. He had been eyeing up the Evolution Cube for such a long time and almost took my life. Can I not hate him?” Han Xiao shrugged.

  “This isn’t the same.” Tarrokov shook his head but did not continue.

  It was not only because of the Evolution Cube. He felt that Han Xiao’s enmity toward EsGod had a sense of urgency within it, as though EsGod posed a huge
threat to him.

  “In any case, the upper echelons have already sent out their forces to attack the Fallen Ark. EsGod isn’t in his main camp. The dynasty plans to send manpower to kill him, and you are also on the list. Even if you don’t ask, the upper echelons will find you regarding this matter.”

  “Alright, I will be there. I can participate in this mission during my trip to the Central Galaxy.”

  Han Xiao then chatted casually for a while more before hanging up.

  As the final boss of the evil faction, EsGod had been able to avoid death.

  The three Universal Civilizations had tried to deal with him many times before but were unable to kill him. It might be possible that the dynasty only treated killing EsGod as putting up a show.

  He was probably the only one who resolutely wanted to kill EsGod.

  I hope that history doesn’t repeat itself, Han Xiao thought to himself.

  If he could wipe out EsGod this time, he would be able to resolve the threat of the World Tree entering early.

  It was not that Han Xiao did not have any confidence in the three Universal Civilizations. In his previous life, the three Universal Civilizations won a pyrrhic victory, so they might not be able to emerge victorious at the moment.

  A few ferocious characters from the later versions had not grown up fully yet.

  Especially the players.

  Ding!

  Right at this moment, Phillip received the reply from the Federation of Light indicating that they would accept his invitation.

  …

  On the other side, in the Federation of Light’s Shattered Star Ring stronghold, Mona placed down his communicator. He was the emissary in charge of contacting Han Xiao this time and also a descendant of Spacetime Freezer. His skin was light blue with diamond-like crystals growing on it.
