<h4>Chapter 732 Cultivation n</h4>
In Han Xiao’s previous life, H strength had earned her the title ‘Goddess of Death’.
Ever since Han Xiao saved these two sisters from the Germinal Organization, he had always seen H as a very important aid in the future. After waiting for so many years, H had finally grown and was now a Cmity Grade. She was now starting to be helpful.
Han Xiao knew about H’s ability very well. Being able to be stronger by absorbing the souls of the dead was something that only she could do. In his previous life, she had ughtered countlesss and grown faster than even the yers.
In his eyes, although H did not have the Luck Glow, she was undoubtedly a legendary character... of course, a viinous character.
Although H was not walking the evil path, it just so happened to be in a time of war. All the dead soldiers could be the source of her power. This was a once in a thousand years opportunity that could make H live up to her true potential.
He needed someone that could fight in his ce, and H was the perfect candidate.
As for Aurora...
Han Xiao turned to look at her, smiled kindly, and said, “How’s the development of your Esper ability?”
Aurora chuckled. She flipped her hand, and a golden light appeared above her palm.
“I’m not good at battles, but I can cure any physical damages, and I can also stimte the vital forces of others and make them stronger. Try it...”
As she was speaking, a cluster of golden lightnded on Han Xiao. Han Xiao felt energized as if an electric current passed through his entire body, and many buffs appeared on the interface.
“Can your power be stored?” Han Xiao asked.
“Yes, I’ve tried to inject the vital energy into potions. These can be stored for a long time. But I’m not as hard-working as my sister, so I’m not a Cmity Grade yet. Thus, the expiration date is a little short. The healing effect of these potions will diminish over time and canst for two months at most.”
Aurora scratched her head, a little embarrassed.
Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled. He looked at Aurora as if he was looking at a treasure. He saw the hope of expanding the army’s business into the gctic medicine industry.
Aurora’s Esper ability made her a born healer. When she was still very weak, her healing abilities were already extremely strong. Now that she was a Grade B Super, her healing ability would most likely have increased many times.
“Also, although I can’t fight very well, I can regenerate very quickly.” Aurora pulled out an explosive pistol from the belt of her battle suit, spun it a few rounds on her finger, and suddenly fired at her other hand.
With a bang, the beam prated her palm. Before Han Xiao could even be shocked by her actions, her wound healed up extremely quickly and disappeared. Her palm became white and smooth once again. no signs of it being wounded could be seen anywhere.
“See, I can protect myself now!” Like a child showing off, Aurora’s face was filled with anticipation. She wanted to be praised by Han Xiao.
In the training thatsted more than ten years, other than cultivating her Esper ability, Aurora had also learned quite many shooting and fighting techniques to make up for herbat capability. As she had once been tortured by the Germinal Organization, although she looked weak and soft, she was extremely resilient and had a very high pain tolerance. She did not even frown the slightest when she casually shot through her hand.
What a tough girl... Han Xiao smiled and praised her. “That’s an amazing ability.”
The name (Life Return) sure was not an exaggeration. Aurora was only Grade B now, so when she reached Grade A, her regeneration power would probably be even stronger than his. Sadly, her Esper ability did not have a highbat capability. However, her ability and H’s ability definitely made up for each other’s weaknesses.
After the three of them chatted for a while, H said with a serious face, “How do you n to arrange us?”
“I shall bring you to meet the officers of the army first.”
H shook her head. “Before you came back, Sylvia took us to meet all the high-ranking officers. She said that when you’re back, you’ll personally decide our positions.”
During the Mutation Disaster in Version 2.0, the most senior members of the army had all met H. They knew that her rtionship with Han Xiao was not usual, so they definitely treated them well.
“Since that’s the case, let’s get down to business then,” Han Xiao said. “The two of you will follow me as my bodyguards first. After you know more about how the army operates, I’ll then arrange official high-ranking positions for you.”
“No problem.” H nodded.
Han Xiao thought for a moment then said, “Rest a few days, then I will bring you guys along.”
H, however, shook her head and rejected that. “There’s no need; we have rested enough. Give us missions as soon as possible. I want to test my true strength.”
Why are you in more of a hurry than me? Han Xiao smiled, contemted for a while, and then nodded. “Okay. We shall head out tomorrow. I’ll take you guys to war.”
He nned to keep a low profile for some time while reaping the yers’ Experience and cultivating H’s potential personally.
In the West Wind Star System, Star Zone 11...
This was the border Star System that had been invaded before any others. The forces of the Bloodshed Land stationed there were thergest. They had built around a hundred strongholds spread across the various Star Zones in the West Wind Star System. Section Zero had set up perimeters at some strategically important ces to prevent the Bloodshed Land from invading the areas around West Wind.
Perimeter 027 was one of them, with numerous Section Zero members garrisoned there throughout the year. The ck Star Army’s fleet was in it as well, and the people stationed here rotated in shifts.
Other than the asionalrge-scale military operations, perimeters were where battles urred the most regrly. The Bloodshed Land tried to prate the perimeters time after time. The troops at the perimeters also sent small fleets to disrupt and attack the Bloodshed Land strongholds regrly. Those perimeters were the ‘frontlines’ of the war.
After the Kant Star System battle ended, the yers started to explore freely. Han Xiao had yet to cancel the fifty percent off sale for those taking part in the war. The requirement to enjoy this benefit was to continue participating in the war. Hence, in the more than a month Han Xiao took to travel back and forth, most of the yers were scattered across the various perimeters where there were countless battles. This was also the usual way of taking part in the secret war main storyline.
There were also yers that did not take part in the main storyline. Some went to do mercenary missions, some went to explore around, and some guild yers bought mining devices and small carrier ships and went to be miners on the resources under the ck Star Army.
More than 20,000 yers gathered at Perimeter 027, participating in the dailybat missions.
Not long ago, a Bloodshed Land fleet had attacked the perimeter but failed. The stationed troops were now cleaning up the battlefield. In the military space station office, themander of Perimeter 027, Rexson, was looking at the troops outside the window cleaning the wreckages while listening to his deputy report the result of the battle.
“The enemy lost eighty-six small battleships and neen heavy frigates. We lost thirty-eight battleships. As for casualties... ahem, it’s unknown for the enemy. The casualties on our side are being calcted right now. The initial estimate is that the damage is very small...”
“All thanks to the ck Star Army again?” Rexson said with a rxed expression.
“Yes. The Immortals of the ck Star Army destroyed many of the enemy battleships through close-quarter battles. Since they don’t need any retreat ns, we did not suffer any extra casualties...”
The deputy swallowed his saliva. It was written on the battle report that afternding on the enemy battleships through the charge cabin, many of them instantly detonated the charge cabin and did not consider retreating at all. Some evennded while carrying nuclear bombs. These people were extremely brave.
“Ever since the ck Star Army sent a few dozen thousand Immortals, thebat pressure on our side decreased tremendously. These people are born warriors.” Rexson took a deep breath.
It had been two months since the version started. A lot of yers had reached level 100 andpleted their Promotion Missions one after another, getting the opportunity to experience Race Evolution. The versatility of the yers increased once again. The first batch of yers had finally entered Grade B.
Although they were just the weakest kind of Grade Bs, the increase in their Grade still made a powerful impact. The mid-tierbatant standard of the ck Star Army instantly increased an entire level. As more than a million of those Supers were sent into the various perimeter battlefields, the situation of many of those perimeters immediately became much better.
For Perimeter 027, the twenty thousand or so Grade B yers secured victories for all the recent skirmishes at the perimeter. Rexson could not have been more satisfied with the ck Star Army’s yers.
The first batch of ck Star Army yers were no longer disposable forces like before; they had the ability to make decisive impacts to small scale skirmishes. The yers discussed this on the forums. Bun-Hit-Dog mentioned Frenzied Sword’s theory during his video and said that as the yers became stronger with the version updates, their influence on the world would grow bigger as well, and they would be widely recognized.
Real-time feedback was an important source of fun for the yers. If the attitude of an NPC was the same toward max level yers and new yers, it would be way too boring. The factor that attracted the yers the most in Gxy was that immersive experience as if they were living in a real world.
This time, Rexson suddenly received a notification. He nced at it, and his expression changed drastically.
“What happened?” the deputy hastily asked.
“Quickly, make the preparations. His Excellency ck Star will being personally, and he’s almost here.” Rexson quickly walked out of the room.
Rexson summoned the high-ranking officers and went to the dock. After a while, the cklight Stealth entered.
Han Xiao brought along the two sisters and Feidin. Feidin hade of his own volition. He was worried about Han Xiao’s mental state, so he nned to always be around Han Xiao till Han Xiao recovered, just in case.
As soon as they disembarked from the spaceship, Rexson approached them respectfully. To him, Han Xiao was someone that he would have no chance ofing into contact with usually. Han Xiao had gained the respect of all the Section Zero members through his battle results.
“No need to be so formal. I would like to know about the situation of the Bloodshed Land strongholds nearby,” Han Xiao said with a smile.
Rexson was ttered. He hastily invited Han Xiao and the others into the battle conference room, opened the tactical star map, and exined the situation.
Han Xiao stared at the star map, nodded, and said, “Got it, I’m nning to attack Stronghold W-58.”
Stronghold W-58 was the biggest hostile stronghold around Perimeter 027, and one Cmity Grade was stationed there. Rexson had never thought of attacking it, but once he heard what Han Xiao said, he was secretly content.
“I need some helpers. Don’t worry, the merit will all be yours.” Han Xiao smiled.
Rexson nodded continuously and said, “I will send the perimeter fleet to work with you.”
Although Han Xiao was not his direct boss, Rexson was not willing to give up this opportunity of gaining Han Xiao’s favor, not to mention that the merit of eliminating an enemy stronghold would all go to him.
“Okay, we act in one day’s time.”
Han Xiao nodded. He had gone to the perimeter this time to let H test her abilities, so of course, he was going to strike.
Manudo was the Bloodshed Land Grade A Super stationed in Stronghold W-58. He was not very worried.
Not long ago, he had received a message from spies that ck Star had appeared at Perimeter 027. He was the only Cmity Grade in the strongholds nearby. Since ck Star was already there, Manudo felt that he would not mind getting rid of a usual Cmity Grade like him on the way. His heart was half-frozen in fear.
Manudo hastily reported this to the headquarters. To his surprise, the overallmander proactively contacted him.
“There’s a very high chance that the ck Star will be attacking the stronghold you’re in now. However, don’t panic. I’m going to give you a mission.”
“Is it retreat?” Manudo saw hope.
“Of course not!” Jorde said with a deep voice. “I need you to do one thing-lure ck Star into fighting and battle with him.”
“You can just tell me if you want me to kill myself...” Manudo felt the utmost despair.
“Ahem, I will deploy the Cmity Grades around to support you. You’re not going to fight alone.” Jorde was practically speechless. The fearful name of ck Star was deeply carved into the hearts of the high-levelbatants of the Bloodshed Land. There was nothing he could do about it. He could only exin, “Not long ago, ck Star fell into my trap. He’s not at his maximum strength now. I need you to test him.”
Jorde wanted to specte what damage Psyker’s weapon dealt to Han Xiao through observing Han Xiao’s reactions during battle. He could only feel relieved after seeing it with his own eyes.
At the same time, on a deste between Stronghold W-58 and Perimeter 027, Summer Night Flower and dozens of other yers who had joined Klent arrived in spaceships.
They were doing the main storyline mission of the Klent faction. As warriors of the Bloodshed Land, they were deployed to the stronghold near the perimeter to take part in small scale skirmishes just like the ck Star Army yers.
The Bloodshed Land had very strict rules. They were not allowed to explore freely like they could in the ck Star Army. Summer Night Flower and the others were not used to it. They could not help but to miss the treatment of the ck Star Army. Sadly, they only knew to treasure it after losing it.
This time, Summer Night Flower and the others finally had some casual time. They had gone to this to wait for someone.
Their position in the Bloodshed Land was not high, so their privileges could not bepared to when they were in the ck Star Army. Hence, Summer Night Flower contacted his friend who was still in the ck Star Army and told him to buy the fifty percent off products from the army for them. This was where they were going to make the exchange.
