Random Dungeon Crystal (1)
Gene Awakening Elixir (Normal)
Han Xiao tutted. Two consecutive item type rewards but no Mission Completion Card; this was not looking too good.
These rewards are not good at all… Han Xiao touched his chin in resignation. As expected, touching Feidin or not really made a huge difference.
Luck Glow is so strong. I want it so badly.
Seeing that nothing was good, Han Xiao chose the ‘Energy Enhancement Aura’, a cheap aura type cosmetic. Its effect was to increase the appearance of energy attacks, making the beams look thicker and larger. It had no actual effects other than making the attacks look more intimidating and cooler.
Randomizing… complete.
Your Random Reward Type is: (Talent]
Please select one from the three options below:
(Golden Ratio Body]: +3% STR, +3% DEX, +3% END, +75 CHA
(Electrical Eyes): +25 CHA, +5 LUK
3: (Sado-Masochism]: +120 MYS, -50 CHA
“What the hell are these?” Han Xiao’s eyes twitched.
One of the good things about being unlucky was that he would always see weird stuff.
The second and the third choices were useless, so Han Xiao chose the (Golden Ratio Body), which was better than nothing. Han Xiao took a deep breath and started to draw the fourth Random Reward.
Randomizing… complete.
Your Random Reward Type is: (Item]
Please select one from the three options below:
Mission Completion Card (1)
Small Experience Crystal (13)
Race Evolution Options Reshuffle Card Fragment (2)
Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled. After drawing four Random Rewards, he finally got a Mission Completion Card!
After selecting the Mission Completion Han Xiao stayed patient and used the remaining two Random Rewards, which gave him 2,000,000 Experience and a common ability, [Breaking Skull], which gave +40% critical chance when attacking the enemy’s head with an eight-second cooldown.
One Mission Completion Card out of six draws, not too bad. At least it solved the imminent issue.
Han Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. One was enough to complete the Promotion mission. After he completed the Promotion, his Experience would be spent up, so he would be in no hurry. He would have seven years to slowly collect more Mission Completion Cards.
Han Xiao immediately used this new Mission Completion Card.
You have used (Mission Completion Card)!
(Self Challenge) completed!
Level 200 Promotion Mission completed! Promotion successful! END Bonus increased! 1 END = 145 Health = 155 Stamina.
Han Xiao’s heart trembled as if burning lava poured out from within and flowed through his entire body. He inhaled deeply and felt as if his body was melting; his cells were evolving.
The pain lasted for quite a while before disappearing. Han Xiao was gasping for air and covered in sweat, but he was very energetic as if he had just finished a physical training.
The level limit was removed. Han Xiao took a deep breath and spent all the Experience on leveling up. His level increased from level 200 to level 207.
[Apostle Mechanic) leveled up to level 12.
+240 Energy, +3 STR, +4 DEX, +5 END, +10 INT.
You have received 8 Free Attribute Points and 1 Potential Point.
He finally spent all his Experience!
Experience in his interface was just a number; it would only become valuable when he turned it into his own combat capability. The Experience that he had obtained through Version 2.0 was almost all gone. Han Xiao felt the energy in his body-he was now at his
peak.
I’ve finally spent all the Experience… Han Xiao looked at the notification and realized that his Grade Bonus had changed as well.
When achieving the Grade A standard of 10,000 Energy Rank, one would receive the Grade A bonuses. For every 10,000 Ona after that, the bonus would increase.
The original effect was: +10 END, +8 All Resistances. +10% Highest Attribute, +5% Other Attributes, +30 Free Attribute Points, and +5 Potential Points.
After the Grade Bonus upgraded, it became: +15 END, +12 All Resistances. +15% Highest Attribute, +8% Other Attributes, +80 Free Attribute Points, and +10 Potential Points.
Han Xiao spent more than half of the Free Attribute Points in Intelligence and then put forty into Endurance. Endurance was now very beneficial to him. He had spent all the Free Attribute Points in the early stages on Intelligence, so he could slow down for a while.
Furthermore, after his battle with EsGod, he was quite cautious about the attack of a Beyond Grade A, so more Endurance would definitely only do him good.
He then looked at his current attributes.
Level: 207

Grade A Bonuses: +15 END, +12 All Resistances. +15% Highest Attribute, +8% Other Attributes, +80 Free Attribute Points, +10 Potential Points
Remark: As a Mechanic, you’re among the top. As a tank, you’re world-class. Are you really not considering becoming a tank?
Tsk, Machinery is the best, Han Xiao snorted internally.
In order to complete his Class Advancement, he had spent three whole years, but between his Class Advancement and Promotion, he did not take very long. This was all thanks to his accumulation earlier on.
This Promotion was not Race Evolution, so he did not undergo a tremendous change. Nonetheless, his health points grew very quickly. Compared to before the Promotion, they was had increased by twenty-five percent
Han Xiao could not imagine how tanky the Tyrant would be. Other than having extremely high defense, he would probably have millions of health points.
Level 207, one more step closer to Beyond Grade A. I’ve spent all the accumulated Experience. With the Experience standard of Version 2.0, I may be able to level up four to five more times. I can only wait until the players return in order to quickly level up. Now I just have to stock up on more Mission Completion Cards.
As the (Bloodline) mission ended, Han Xiao went back to the headquarters and rested for a few days. Since his holiday had yet to end, he flipped through the mission list of the Mercenary Department of the army and looked for suitable missions for him to accept.
The news that Black Star was out to do missions personally once again quickly spread across the Colton Star Cluster and brought shock to many organizations. With Han Xiao’s current position, why would he ever need to personally carry out missions?
Plus, aren’t you at war? How do you have time to personally do missions?
Is the secret war this easy for you?
The employers across the entire Colton Star Cluster were overjoyed. With Black Star’s strength, what kind of mission would he be unable to complete? For an amount of time, the Mercenary Department of the Black Star Army’s business multiplied by three times—all because of Han Xiao.
Those who successfully hired Han Xiao were flattered. Despite being the employer, their attitude toward Han Xiao was like Han Xiao was their employer.
Han Xiao’s method of carrying out these hiring missions could be simply described with one word-reckless!
Be it eliminating rebels, clearing beasts, or chasing galactic pirates, all he did was crush them instantly. The enemies could not even resist. Han Xiao spent more time traveling than doing the missions. It was terrifying.
Since Han Xiao was moving alone, he thought that Klent would once again
send people to try assassinating him. However, after completing seven missions, he still had not even seen a trace of any assassins.
What had happened to DarkStar horrified Klent, so they were extremely cautious. Seeing that Han Xiao was alone outside, they immediately had specialized groups of people making deductions.
With Black Star’s position, there’s absolutely no need for him to do those hires personally.
Therefore, it’s obvious that…
He’s luring us to attack him!
He definitely wants to replicate what happened to the DarkStar leader and make us the scapegoat once again! This guy is evil!
Therefore, the Klentans looked at Han Xiao wandering alone with a sneer on their faces.
Humph, your intentions are too obvious; we see right through them! We will definitely not fall for it!
Furthermore, Klent had just been hit politically, so they wanted to keep a low profile for some time. Klent also could not think of anything that could threaten Han Xiao at all, so they had no intention of attacking Han Xiao for the time being.
When Han Xiao was doing missions and stocking up on Random Rewards, the various departments of the Black Star Army were developing steadily as well.
The first batch of investments for Vilna were spent in the first three months. Following Han Xiao’s orders, Reynold invested another 150 million Enas.
On the Floating Dragon Island dock, one thousand battleships were parked neatly in their various models. Among them were two enormous flagships as the core of the fleet.
The spaceships of the galactic pirates were pushed to the corners of the dock. They shivered and did not dare to have any objections. This was because the exterior armor of these thousand battleships was painted with the same image-a light green Void Dragon head with a throne below it inside a ring
This was the mark of the second Field Team of Floating Dragon!
Vilna took a few assistants to accompany Aesop and Jenny in inspecting this fleet.
“We now have a thousand Star System produced battleships and three hundred thousand galactic warriors, including 450 Grade B Supers and 240,000 Grade C Supers. The remaining are Grade D and below, mainly responsible for the management, logistics, transport, and others.”
Vilna introduced the current scale of the second Floating Dragon Field Team to the two of them.
“It has only been half a year. This is great,” Aesop complimented.
“It’s mainly because of Black Star’s help,” Vilna said. “It’s difficult to even make money on my own.”
“How much did he spend?” Jenny asked with a frown.
“70,000,000 Enas initially and another 150,000,000 Enas a few days ago…” Vilna swallowed her saliva. Even as a Calamity Grade Super, she was still shocked by Han Xiao’s generosity.
“How generous…” Jenny’s brows stopped frowning, and she slightly snorted. She touched her slowly deteriorating hairline with resignation.
“The maintenance cost of these troops is about 8.5 million Enas every month,” Vilna cautiously added. “Black Star is the one maintaining that right now, but in the future…”
“It’s a little expensive,” Jenny subconsciously replied before suddenly pausing.
She suddenly realized that she had almost never given Han Xiao any funding or maintenance fees at all. Although the Black Star Army was Floating Dragon’s Field Team, they had been responsible for their own expenses and still handed over a part of their profits to her every month.
As the Black Star Army almost never requested any funding from Floating Dragon, she had not really thought about it. Only now did she realize that the Black Star Army was really independent, and they were probably passionately expanding their business to earn the maintenance fees too. Jenny shook her head and felt that she really was not a very great butler.
“Black Star built a fleet for you without caring about the cost,” Aesop said. “It seems that he’s made up his mind on leaving. Vilna, you must think of ways to make profits for this fleet. We will provide the maintenance fee of this team of yours in the future. We don’t need the Field Team to be too large, or the cost will be too high. You can’t keep accepting Black Star’s help. You don’t have his ability to make money, so you must learn to control your fleet’s size.”
“O–Okay…” Vilna hastily nodded.
Jenny, who stayed silent on the side for a while, could not help but admit, “Black Star really is a rare talent.”
Aesop nodded in agreement before adding with resignation, “Sadly, he’s growing too fast. Someone this talented will not serve others forever…”
Chapter 715 - Seven Years
Chapter 715 Seven Years
As Aesop, Vilna, and Jenny were chatting, a most familiar spaceship to all three of them came from afar. It was Han Xiao’s Blacklight Stealth.
“Why is he here?”
The three of them were surprised. They were just talking about Han Xiao, and speak of the devil…
The Blacklight Stealth squeezed into the Floating Dragon Island’s dock. The hatch opened, and Han Xiao stepped out. He looked around at the shivering galactic pirates around, curled his lips, and then looked at Aesop, Jenny, and Vilna.
“Yo, you’re all here.”
“Why have you come back?” Jenny snorted.
“It’s been a long time since I last saw you, and I’ve missed you, especially that pretty hairline of yours. I missed it so much I could barely sleep at night… By the way, have you had time to sleep recently?”
Han Xiao raised his brows. After knowing Jenny for so long, he knew very clearly of how to piss her off.
“You’re such an asshole!” Being hit where it hurt, Jenny clenched her teeth, turned around, and stomped away as if the ground was Han Xiao’s face and she wanted to stomp a hole in it.
Han Xiao then looked at Vilna and said, “What were you guys doing?”
“W—We were inspecting the second Field Team…” Vilna stuttered with a slightly blushed face. Han Xiao was the one that had spent the money to build this team, and Aesop had just told her that this was a symbol of Han Xiao showing his decision of leaving. With Han Xiao suddenly appearing, she felt very uncomfortable as if she had been caught in the act.
Being extremely experienced, Aesop was not awkward at all, he changed the topic and said, “Are you looking for Ames? She doesn’t know you’re back, so she should be in the palace training. Go find her.”
Han Xiao nodded. He casually patted Vilna’s head till her face was completely blushed, and then he finally walked away satisfied.
Although Vilna was a Calamity Grade, her personality was too soft, and Han Xiao could not help but tease her every time he saw her. After all, she would be his successor in the future, so he was casual when treating her.
He had just completed a mission that happened to be near the Floating Dragon Island, so he decided to make a trip there. While he was there, he was also going to use the Blank Character Summon Card on Ames.
Near the palace, Han Xiao saw Hila and Aurora, and his eyes sparkled.
Hila was wearing a tight red battle suit made of high strength nanofiber. Compared to three years ago, her body was even sexier. Her appearance and vibe had become more aligned with the Goddess of Death that she had been in his previous life, cold and indifferent.
Aurora had grown quite a bit taller, too. She was still smaller than Hila overall but not smaller at all at some places. It was clear that she had developed her vital energy Esper ability very well.
The foreheads of both of them were covered in sweat marks as they walked out of the palace. It seemed like they had just finished training Upon seeing Han Xiao, the two of them stopped simultaneously.
“Whoa, are you here to see us?” With surprise all over her face, Aurora pounced into Han Xiao’s arms and hugged him.
Hila’s eyes twitched as she slowly walked over.
“Alright, alright, they’re big enough.” Han Xiao quickly pushed Aurora away by her head then sized t
he two of them up. “It looks like you guys have trained well under Ames.”
Both sisters had Grade S Esper ability potential, so they had grown at an astonishing speed. The energy they gave off had reached Grade B, with Hila giving off stronger energy. Han Xiao speculated that Hila’s Energy Rank should be about around 6,000.
In the original storyline, she reached Calamity Grade in Version 3.0. Although she’s not increasing her strength by slaughtering countless lives, with her potential and how hard she’s working, the possibility of her reaching the Calamity Grade within the next seven years should be quite high.
Han Xiao patted Aurora’s head, paused, and said to Hila, “When you’re at Calamity Grade, come back to help me.”
Given how strong Hila had been in her previous life, she would definitely be a great help when she reached Grade A. As a very powerful healer, Aurora would also be able to effectively reduce the casualties of his officers. Both of them would be fantastic additions to his army.
“Okay.” Hila nodded and replied very decisively.
“I thought you would hesitate. After all, it’s safe here with Ames. Haven’t you always prioritized safety?”.
With an expressionless face, Hila said, “This is something we agreed on. Plus, when I’m at Calamity Grade, I will be able to protect Aurora. Since we’re here in the universe, we can’t possibly stay in one place all the time instead of exploring the world. Furthermore, she is now capable of protecting herself to some extent.”
Han Xiao looked at Hila and said, “Why do I feel like you didn’t really mean that?”
“Humph.” Hila looked away.
She did not train so hard just to protect Aurora in the galaxy but also to be able to help Han Xiao as soon as possible to repay him. With her strong personality, she had to repay others for their help.
Furthermore, she would be able to see Han Xiao often if she worked for him. She could only see Han Xiao once in a very long time while training on Floating Dragon Island, so she rather missed him.
“Are you here to see Her Excellency Dragon Emperor?” Hila asked.
