He was truly a wealthy tycoon!
“As for the Super knowledge that you have requested, we can provide five. This is the list.”
As Han Xiao took a glance, the Super knowledge that a civilization had was indeed more complete than the black market. There were even some that could not be found on the black market. Now that they were being placed before him for him to choose, it saved him a great deal of time. However, the highest-grade knowledge on the list was only a High-End Knowledge.
Without any hesitation, Han Xiao immediately chose to learn the Mechanic High-End Knowledge that he had not learned.
_____________________
Armed Branch: [High-End Material Technology]. Core Mechanic knowledge to research materials with high resistance. The most obvious result would be an increase in Armor for all machines.
Energy Branch: [Super Nanometer Force]. Strengthens the basic attributes of all armor and machines. When used in tandem with [Super Nanotechnology], high grade memory alloys that have the ability to automatically restore Armor can be researched. If the blueprint for Nano Robots is learned, machines may even have the ability to transform!
Energy Branch: [High Energy Weapon Control]. When used together with [High Class Energy Control], many different powerful weapons can be created.
Control Branch: [Interstellar Navigation Technology]. Prerequisite knowledge to building a spaceship.
Control Branch: [Advanced Applications for Quantum Entanglement]. Greatly increase the transmission range of energy and messages. Increases the range and efficiency for virtual intrusion.

The upper echelon immediately brought up the data from the knowledge bank and sent it to Han Xiao’s communicator.
Han Xiao suppressed the urge to throw in his Potential Points immediately.
The benefits from the trade had basically been obtained by him, and the only thing left would be for Godora to announce his contributions at the ceremony and increase his Renown.
It could be said that this was truly a happy ending for their cooperation.
After a short conversation, Han Xiao stood up to take his leave. Right at that moment, an idea suddenly came to him, and Han Xiao threw an [Observer’s Mark] on Serbia the Fifth.
The highest leader of Godora would come into contact with top secret information every day, and he could obtain some unexpected intelligence from spying on Serbia the Fifth.
It definitely was not because he wanted to spy on the lifestyle of the highest leader!
…
The next day, Han Xiao rented out a machinery modification room.
Since he was currently on the mother planet of Godora, the time taken for shipping would be negligible. He immediately bought the core materials required for his new mechanical suit.
Despite Godora only charging him the cost price of those three materials, he spent more than 100,000 Enas.
At the same time, of the five new knowledges that he acquired from Godora, [High-End Material Technology], [Super Nanometer Force], and [Advanced Applications for Quantum Entanglement] were raised to the max level, which cost him a total of fifty-one Potential Points.
Han Xiao could finally feel a lack of Potential Points. The moment he started to level up his knowledge, his Potential Points would also be expended rapidly.
Han Xiao made use of his new knowledge to complete his mechanical suit blueprint and also increased the blueprint up to level ten. This was to ensure that he could create the most perfect mechanical suit.
This time, Han Xiao was prepared to create a mechanical suit that could keep up with his new Grade A strength!
Chapter 587 - Berserk Ape

In the machinery modification room…
“The core module is complete. Running an automatic scan… Automatic scan complete. Everything is in working order. Assembling the periphery modules…”
Ten or so mechanical arms quickly assembled the various parts of the mechanical suit, and a holographic screen displayed the various stats of the mechanical suit.
Phillip played the role of an assistant throughout the entire assembly process and used his superior processing speed to oversee the entire process. He detected all the microscopic defects within the various parts so that Han Xiao could make continuous adjustments and ensure perfection to raise the grade of the product.
Above the purple grade was the pink rare grade. The higher the quality of a machine, the more difficult it was to increase its grade. However, a problem that could be solved by money was not a problem at all.
Han Xiao spent more than 100,000 Enas on the core materials, and he had even made use of the pink grade void dragon bone in the mechanical suit. With so many rare materials being used, it was extremely simple to increase the grade of the final product. When comparing two different equipment of the same level, the difference between the pink and purple grade was not small at all.
Now that he was in the Calamity Grade, he had abundant Mechanical Force, and his Machinery Affinity was also raised. Together with the aid of all his talents and skills, Han Xiao’s construction efficiency was increased a great deal. Even if he was constructing a high-grade mechanical suit, it did not take him too much time.
Whoosh!
The mechanical arms quickly assembled the remaining modules of the mechanical suit, and after the assembly was complete, the mechanical arm sprayed out a chilly gas that had the ability to cool down and combine the modules. This was the final step.
The white cool gas dissipated in all directions, and a black and gold mechanical suit was displayed before Han Xiao.
Han Xiao then pressed his finger on the chest portion of the mechanical suit and released a trace of Mechanical Force to activate the suit.
Suddenly, waves seemed to have appeared on the surface of the mechanical suit, and countless black Nano Robots sprung to action. The various modules of the thin mechanical suit began to surface, and the mechanical suit bulged out as though it had put on a great deal of muscle.
Han Xiao made use of the [Super Nanometer Force] on the new mechanical suit, and there were many nano machines in the mechanical suit that had the properties of a memory alloy. The information of the various weapon modules were programed into these nano machines, and these nano machines could transform into different weapons at any time. While the design of the mechanical suit seemed simple, it was actually filled with weapons all over and had many different functions.
Apart from that, these nano machines had the ability to self-repair, produce energy, and many other functions.
“This mechanical suit is much more powerful than Void Dragon and is the most powerful mechanical suit that I have created to date…”
Han Xiao opened the interface and looked at the attributes of the mechanical suit.

_____________________
Compared to his previous mechanical suits, the greatest difference would be the different class of the suit. In the past, the snake and dragon series belonged to the ‘Light Battle Mechanical Suit’ class, but the Berserk Ape belonged to the ‘Nano Transforming Mechanical Suit’ class. It had the ability to transform and did not need additional components to be mounted.
In fact, many of the transforming mechanical suits were of the ape series. Could it be that the origins of this suit were the Saiyan ape?
The new mechanical suit was extremely powerful, and it met Han Xiao’s expectations. His mechanical suit was finally stronger than his own body, and its damage was also powerful. Furthermore, with the intergalactic engine that he had built into it, it was akin to a one-man spaceship. He would be able to attack battleships in an intergalactic battle. It was an extremely useful function.
Compressing the Berserk Ape into a compressed orb, Han Xiao hung it around his neck. He could not help but feel his hands turn itchy, and he was looking forward to finding someone to spar with.
However, his own Officers would only be bullied by him one-sidedly, and it would not be too convenient for him to find the other Army Commanders or Godora.
“The ceremony is about to begin, so I’d better not create any trouble. There will be chances in the future.”
Han Xiao temporarily suppressed that urge. The new mechanical suit was only a part of his plan to upgrade his equipment. There were still various new weapons and machines that he needed to construct. When he built up his new Mechanical Army again, his combat capabilities would then reach the peak.
…
The date of the ceremony was finally decided.
Before the ceremony, Godora revealed the news of DarkStar being destroyed, and the entire Star System was shaken.
DarkStar was infamous in the Shattered Star Ring, and it had actually been destroyed! This was truly earth-shattering news!
Numerous galactic residents were completely dumbfounded. After so many years of no progress in eradicating DarkStar, Godora was actually able to get rid of DarkStar in such a secretive and thorough manner. This was truly too sudden.
Many organizations had still been guessing what kind of a storm DarkStar would kick up next and were shocked by the news.
Godora only revealed a simple report of the process and would only announce the entire process in detail during the ceremony. It was akin to a media press conference. As such, all the citizens of the Shattered Star Ring focused their attention on Godora’s ceremony.
The galactic reporters were like sharks who smelled blood and all swarmed toward the mother planet of Godora, anxiously waiting for the beginning of the ceremony.
The galactic media agencies came to an agreement with Godora and would broadcast the entire ceremony.
As the date of the ceremony drew near, countless galactic residents became even more eager for the ceremony to begin. They truly wanted to know exactly how Godora destroyed DarkStar!
In the midst of anticipation and eagerness, the day of the ceremony finally arrived.
Chapter 588 - Award Ceremony
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Boom!
The guard of honor squad opened fire toward the sky, and ceremonial fireworks burst open.
In the capital of the Godoran mother planet, the plaza in the center of the city was filled with splendor.
This was the most prominent landmark of the capital. The plaza was large and grand with the statues of various historical figures in the center of the plaza. Those statues were enchanted with magic to make the statues glow with a golden light. Many large scale Godoran events would be held in this plaza.
At that moment, the sky above the plaza was a no-fly zone, with many Godoran patrols making the rounds. On the ground, the center of the plaza was cordoned off, and only those who were granted access could enter. A large platform was situated at the center of the plaza with seats being placed on the platform. These were the seats for the upper echelons of Godora. At that moment, the various leaders were there yet, and their seats were still empty.
Below the platform were rows of neatly arranged seats that were there for the various members of society invited to participate in the ceremony. At that moment, the seats were already filled up.
Outside the plaza, golden-skinned individuals were packed like sardines as they watched the ceremony from afar. In truth, they did not need to be present physically to watch the ceremony as Godora would project the entire ceremony into the sky. A holographic screen was currently floating in the sky of the capital, and they only needed to raise their heads to be able to watch it.
Everyone in the streets and alleys of the capital stopped and looked up at the screen as they waited for the ceremony to begin.
“The screen in the sky looks like a gigantic theatre. This effect is truly stunning.”
Many of the players also went onto the streets, and this sight was truly a fresh one for them.
Over the past few days, all the players had been freely exploring the capital, and they could experience a new culture of a different race. This fresh experience was like tasty candy for them all.
Apart from the prices of goods being frighteningly high, everything else was extremely interesting to them.
The players who h
ad followed Han Xiao into space in the previous version were used to the various sights in the galaxy. Frenzied Sword and the others could not help but describe the significance of being brought to Godora’s mother planet to others. According to their experience, their Black Star Army being on the mother planet was significant.
Maple Moon made a conjecture. “I think that a new Storyline may be waiting for us here. Think about it, the Mutation Disaster has just ended, and the organization behind it has also been wiped out. The players are starting to enter the galaxy on a large scale, and I think that there will be a new goal for us.”
Frenzied Sword shook his head and said, “No. I think that the Black Star Army itself is a Main Storyline Mission. Don’t forget that we accepted many different missions previously and went to many different planets with different races. Every planet had their own storyline, so the next Main Storyline Mission should be an exploration one. With the Black Star Army as the guide, we will be able to encounter more planets and races to allow the players to get used to the galaxy.”
“Makes sense. If the Black Star Army is the next Main Storyline Mission of Version 2.0, then the significance of this ceremony is to create an impactful beginning.”
“This is the smell of wonderful material!” Bun-Hit-Dog’s eyes lit up.
…
A military aircraft stopped outside the guest house, and this was the vehicle that was going to take all the Army Commanders to the ceremony.
Everyone got onto the aircraft, and Han Xiao picked a random spot to sit in.
“It is finally time for the ceremony to begin.”
None of the Army Commanders were too excited about the ceremony. They had personally participated in the war and were extremely clear about what had happened. The ceremony would just be for Godora to announce the process of how they ambushed all of DarkStar’s motherships and defeated DarkStar in one fell swoop.
This would definitely result in people questioning how Godora locked onto DarkStar’s location. However, this had come from one of Godora’s top secret sources, and it was impossible for them to reveal it.
