The Legendary Mechanic

The entire Explored Universe has seen an unprecedented crackdown on the human trade, and the results have been remarkable.

Of course, most people don't just sit around and do nothing, but those who resist naturally exist, and the complexities of the trade's ecology are exposed - the sellers may have nowhere to go, but many of the buyers are powerful and scattered throughout the world, like a stubborn stain left in the cracks.

Many forces were willing to kill all traffickers, but for a large number of buyers, it was impossible to liquidate them all, and many cooperative forces would not agree.

Han Xiao did not force this, he only wanted to kill the seller cleanly, even if there are still buyers who do not give up, in a long time can not find the source of goods, can only think about it.

If there were bold speculators who felt that the population market was thus emptying out its share, so they took a risk and attempted to develop private clients in a confidential one-on-one manner, the advanced civilization that regulated the network was not a showpiece, and the search procedures produced by his one superhuman virtual mechanic were even more not vegetarian.

The more detailed dispositions were developed by the association and the advanced civilization together, introducing some new laws and regulations, and this aspect did not require Han Xiao's personal attention.

As one population trade chain after another was publicly uprooted, Han Xiao became more and more embraced by the interstellar citizens, just that the matter of ending the population trade, although it gave him great prestige, but at the same time, it also offended many people.

......

Black Star Guild Palace, Private Machinery Workshop.

Han Xiao flipped through the feedback the intelligence department had collected over the past few days and tsked with an inexplicable meaning on his face.

"Hey, the commotion is even bigger than I expected, this kind of thing really doesn't do much good, these powerful guys, no matter how respectful they are on the surface, most of them think I'm meddling in their own business in private, I don't know how many guys secretly see me as an enemy."

The buyers who have the ability to keep slaves and not be held accountable are obviously no ordinary people, and they deprive themselves of their "hobby", even if these guys don't dare to express their dissatisfaction, their hearts are absolutely no good feeling, if there is an opportunity to fall on the well, they definitely don't mind stepping on it.

"If I'm not an individual great power, I definitely won't end well in the future ......"

Han Xiao skimmed his mouth.

Unfortunately, his fist was big enough that even if these people were upset with him, they couldn't do anything about it.

Han Xiao didn't care. He opened the panel and looked at the quest list.

He opened the panel and looked at the quest list, and [End of Darkness] was already displayed as "Settleable", which surprised him somewhat.

"I can't believe it's finished like this, the action isn't over yet."

Han Xiao rubbed his jaw, thoughtful.

Now that the wind was blowing, no one dared to take risks at this time, and the traffickers who hadn't yet been caught where still in the mood to conduct business, all were burying their heads in the sand, and the trade chain was basically completely broken.

In a sense, the interstellar population trade had indeed been briefly ended during this period, and as long as the missions were settled before the resurgence, it should be fine.

"In that case, the mission judgment is quite lenient, and the difficulty is within the acceptable range."

Han Xiao secretly let down a sigh of relief.

If the mission was to keep the interstellar forever free of the phenomenon of population trade, then not to mention a trillion experiences, he felt that ten trillion or a million billion experience rewards might not be worthy of the difficulty.

This requirement was also difficult now, and the fact that he had completed it seemingly easily was because he had accumulated a high enough status, and there were only a handful of forces in the entire interstellar society that had the kind of appeal he had, and there was no way for another person to start.

Han Xiao didn't want the night to be long and dreamy, and directly settled the mission.

[[End of Darkness] has been completed!]

[You get 10,000 e-experience, random bonus x 15, blank character card x 3]

[You get the milestone [Slave Liberator]!]

[[Slave Liberator]: Your relationship in the camp of all order is forever cemented in [reverence]]

[You gain 3 points of cosmic lore]

[Cosmic Lore: [Light of Justice] - You have torn apart the darkness of human trade and brought the light of justice to this sea of stars, and you are worshipped by millions as an idol]

[Lore of the Universe: [Great Deeds] - Your initiative to end the trade in human beings will be remembered in history as a monument to humanitarianism and will be recited in full in textbooks]

[Cosmic Lore Degree: [Freedom Leader] - You have saved countless desperate people and lifted their chains, and your presence, in the eyes of the rescued, symbolizes sublime freedom]

"Hey, done."

Han Xiao relaxed, beautifully inspecting the harvest.

The one trillion experience rewards were mainly a reflection of the difficulty, to him it was a lot less and a lot more, just six or seven old wheat heads, but it was a good amount of money.

Now the experience was still useful to him, although raised to the Super God class, the total level still did not reach the upper limit, but the upgrade cost was even more exaggerated, a trillion experience could not even level up, it was simply a bottomless pit.

The most practical reward in his eyes was still fifteen random bonus opportunities, as well as five blank character cards ...... especially the latter, and the ability to touch people again.

As for the effect of the [Slave Liberator] milestone, to put it in the past, it was very useful, but one's own position nowadays, even without this milestone, the performance was similar.

But this achievement is considered a stronger talisman, standing on the moral high ground, and if the three major civilizations want to target themselves again in the future, the backlash will be even worse.

In addition this is also a huge political asset, if one day he has thoughts about the position of ruler of the interstellar society, there might be some people who will just tango to welcome the royal master and welcome His Majesty the Great Black Star to his loyal central star sea ......

"Ahem ......"

Han Xiao coughed twice, put away these nonsense thoughts, his fingers knocked on the table, secretly chanting.

He used his influence to call on the forces of the entire universe to work together to end the population trade, naturally he could not change his orders, that damage is his own prestige, although the task is done, but it is not appropriate to immediately stop the action is, or have to continue.

"This is good, it's not a bad thing anyway, save the people to the end, send the Buddha to the west."

Han Xiao fixed his mind and opened the forum to take a glance, finding that many players were also discussing this matter, most of the posts were admiration-based, singing the praises of virtue.

This deed was also added to the Star Ocean Chronicles by the player, not stinting on praise, and all kinds of rainbow farts looked oddly comfortable to him, not at all shy.

Brushing the forum with a happy mood, Han Xiao suddenly looked at a post that he was quite concerned about.

It was an announcement post, the content of which was the time of the next version update, and Han Xiao slightly converted it to mean that about nine months after the Star Ocean, players would receive an offline update.

The player's activity time in version 5.0 was far from the standard of previous versions, and even the Pro League had yet to be held, but this update was not a major version change, but a minor update into version 5.5.

There had been several small version updates of this form in previous lives as well, but in Han Xiao's memory, version 5.0 from his previous life did not have this update.

"Looks like it's my butterfly effect again."

Han Xiao was helpless.

Under his own influence, the plot was now completely different, and even the name of the 5.0 version had changed to [Black Star Era], so it didn't seem strange that the update time had changed.

After all, every version update was an entry point to some big event, which was automatically determined, and now that the world tree still had ten years to go before it reached the border of the explored universe, he reckoned that was the reason for the mini-updates.

"It doesn't feel like a favorable change, I'd like to see if I can level up a few more levels."

Han Xiao rubbed his eyebrows.

A mini-version update could unlock a player's level cap again, but that was precisely the reason why it caused the player's experience to have an important way to consume again, and he couldn't continue cutting leeks with maximum efficiency.

In addition, the three major civilizations were currently harassing the World Tree to march, and it was the time when daredevils were most needed, so if the player went offline, there would be one less armed force to recycle.

"Looks like we'll have to get ready and make one more hard cut before they go offline."

The ghostly light of a scythe flashed in Han Xiao's eyes.

He was already light on this and focused on giving players plenty of incentive to empty their carts.

Compared to selling supplies and equipment, it was the various professional knowledge and skills that harvested the bulk of the experience value.

So ...... skill stagnation, help us out!

......

Nine months passed by, during which time Han Xiao put on his best effort, changing his tricks and promotions every day, as if every day was Double Eleven.

Many legionnaires went into a chopping frenzy, their experience slots and wallets drying up at an incredible rate.

But they weren't sad at all, instead they were very happy, only feeling that they had made a huge profit and were worth every penny, smiling like a little flower.

And they have us to thank for the money they spent. ......

After squeezing a wave of players, Han Xiao's experience reserves were much more plentiful and could be used for quite a long time as long as he didn't take them to upgrade, enough to cover the cost of years of research in his opinion.

On the day of the version update, many players went offline and disappeared, which caught the three major civilizations slightly off guard, but they quickly adjusted and replaced them to block the World Tree army, and the battle damage rate inevitably rose.

After solving the population trade problem, Han Xiao didn't continue to make trouble and cooperated with the three major civilizations to prepare for the battle, time flew by in a hectic manner.

The transformation of the border of the Shining World was successfully completed and it became a solid war zone, while the secondary dimensional expeditionary force used the territory of the Boundless King as a transit point to continue searching for the whereabouts of the World Tree itself.

Most of the Super A-rank had progressed to varying degrees under Han Xiao's guidance, and a new group of Super A-ranked powerhouses had been born among the natural calamity trainees at the training base, leaving their names in the Sanctuary.

In addition, many of the Super-A forces had also completed their relocation, and the Black Star Legion, at Han Xiao's behest, had moved away from the Shining World and Broken Star Rings, temporarily withdrawing from these two prime borderlands to avoid additional losses in the war.

Year after year passed, the distance between the World Tree and the Shining World was shortening day by day, and the atmosphere for exploring the universe was becoming more and more tense and stormy.

Finally, on February 5, 797 in the astrological calendar, the shadow of the World Tree spread.

......

Shining Worlds towards the border direction of the unexplored universe, the dense streams of light leapt into place, transforming into a massive fleet of World Trees.

Numerous World Tree soldiers looked out the window at the river of stars, and the images they saw were transmitted along the World Tree's mind and fed simultaneously into the heart of the Town Tree King, who was sitting in his base camp.

The Town Tree King sat on top of his throne, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

More than ten years of time was but a fleeting moment for him, and the memory of his encounter with Han Xiao was like it was yesterday.

Field warfare was not the strength of the World Tree civilization, invading the enemy's homeland was their greatest advantage, snowballing through the World Tree's devouring ability, eating all resources and exhausting all enemies.

War, at last we're getting into the rhythm of what we're good at!

The Town Tree King's large hand tightened and crushed the armrest of the throne with a clatter, his tone low and husky.

"Finally you have found your frontier ...... It's time for you to taste despair!"
