The Legendary Mechanic - Chapter 896

"EsGod was really captured?"

Urranrell received a report from the fleet commander within the Ruler's office and was a little surprised.

The
Ruler was busy with official business, so after a simple meeting to
form a cooperation between the three civilizations, Urranrell did not
continue to pay attention to this operation.

Urranrell had
attached importance to Han Xiao's determination to get rid of EsGod, but
she did not care about the operation that took place. This mentality
was just like a billionaire taking out a hundred thousand to make an
investment. It was purely to test the waters, and whether it succeeded
or failed was relatively unimportant. Having received the report of
success, however, she was pleasantly surprised.

EsGod, who had constantly given them a headache, was finally removed.

The
existence of EsGod had always been the bane of the three Universal
Civilizations, it represented chaos and lawlessness, and it was a firm
enemy of order. Both sides had clearly demarcated their boundaries, but
in some cases, the three civilizations would rely on its strength.

The
notoriety of EsGod came from its atrocities, and although it was
tyrannical, it would definitely not come to rile the three civilizations
up without a valid reason. The targets of its crimes were mainly some
star cluster or super star cluster level civilizations, and rampaging
about in these territories was actually a benefit to the three
civilizations.

On the other hand, the Fallen Ark fleet attracted
thugs and wanted criminals from all over the universe. The disadvantage
was that the power of EsGod was repeatedly increasing, which made him
harder and harder to deal with. The benefit in this was that because all
the wanted criminals were gathered in one place, it became easier to
control them and keep tabs on them, increasing their security.

Of
course, this was under the premise that EsGod was sufficiently strong.
If he was not so difficult to deal, the three civilizations would not
have left him alone.

Now that Black Star had really captured EsGod, getting rid of this tricky enemy, they were obviously pleased.

This
was equivalent to capturing the head of the terrorists, and it showed
that the anti-terrorism measures of the three civilizations had an
effect. The greater the shadow EsGod had left on the galactic residents,
the more reputation they would gain.

Urranrell nodded in satisfaction. "Excellent, Black Star did not waste my efforts. He did well."

"EsGod
was likely careless, or else, with his strength, there's no one in the
Universe that would be able to capture him," Clotti said calmly.

He
had also faced EsGod a few times, and his judgment was accurate. If
EsGod ran the moment he faced a blockade, no one would be able to
capture him.

A pity that all of this was only hypothetical.
EsGod's behavior would never allow him to perform in this manner; he
would definitely engage in battle first. If he only knew how to run,
there was no way that he would have been able to reach his current
strength and infamy. He would have long been removed by the three
civilizations.

"No matter what, Black Star did not let down my expectations."

Urranrell
was getting more and more satisfied with Han Xiao. From viciously
beating up the Arcane Church in the battle of Planet Lighthouse to
getting rid of the Archenemy of the three Universal Civilizations, he
had brought much fame and benefits to the dynasty.

While the dynasty fleet was on the journey back, they received a reply from the upper echelons of the dynasty.

In
the center of the command room, a remote projection appeared. It was
Urranrell. Seeing this, everyone got up to salute, and Han Xiao as well
as the other Beyond Grade As also symbolically bowed their heads.

"All
of you did well this time. You have made a tremendous contribution to
the dynasty. The dynasty will not be stringy with the corresponding
reward."

Urranrell stood with her hands behind her, her tone full of praises.

Facing the leader of the dynasty, everyone maintained the aloofness of a Beyond Grade A and only nodded, accepting her praise.

"If
not for Black Star managing to convince the Federation of Light to
participate, I would not have been able to contribute much to this joint
operation. I've seen the report, and Black Star had the biggest part
to play in the capture of EsGod. The dynasty plans to announce Black
Star as the core of our publicity stunts. I believe no one will object
to it," Urranrell said.

Capturing EsGod was a frightening battle
record, and Urranrell was ready to put the credit on Han Xiao's head,
helping him to spread his reputation.

"Of course not, this is the truth." Milizaus laughed.

He
had been heavily injured in the battle of Planet Lighthouse, and he
had always remembered this grudge. Seeing that EsGod had fallen into
their hands, he felt so pleased, as though he was offered a cold
refreshing drink on a hot summer day. His goodwill toward Han Xiao
increased even further.

The rest did not have any objections.
They were still waiting for the use of the evolution cube, so no one
was willing to fight with Han Xiao for credit.

"Then, I'll thank the dynasty in advance." Han Xiao laughed.

"Good,
you guys quickly bring EsGod back. The dynasty will lock him in the
most secretive location." Urranrell paused for a moment. "That's right.
Black Star, you mentioned that those that are sealed by the Spacetime
Amber will have their souls slowly die off due to the long captivity,
right?"

"That's right." Han Xiao nodded and understood her intentions. "Does the dynasty wish to study EsGod?"

"Yes,
it has high research value. After so many combinations of gene chains,
it has mastered all kinds of abilities. If this can be cracked, the
genetic technology of the dynasty will have progress, and the number of
Supers will also increase." Urranrell did not conceal it. "Of course,
only when his soul dies can we begin the research. How long do you think
we need?"

Han Xiao stroked his chin. "I recommend at least five hundred years to start with."

Urranrell
stood in deep thought for a moment before nodding. "That works.
Although the period is a little long, let's play safe."

Five
hundred years was nothing to the Crimson Dynasty. Their period of
existence far surpassed that number, and some war preparations even took
units of a hundred years as a gauge.

After a few more side conversations, Urranrell hung up, and the dynasty soldiers present returned to work.

Ravenlaude now turned to Han Xiao. "Since EsGod has already been caught, it's time for you to uphold your end of the deal."

Han Xiao's mouth widened in a smile. Raising his hand, nanoparticles surged, and the Evolution Cube was brought to his palm.

"Relax, I value credibility, and since everyone here has helped me in solving my issue, I won't cheat you guys."

The
three Universal Civilizations reached a consensus, and only after
their fleets returned did they announce the arrest of EsGod. Because
the fighting took place in the desolate universe belt where there were
limited human traces, most major organizations did not know anything
about their encounter.

A little over half a month later, the dynasty's fleet smoothly returned, and there were no unexpected incidents.

Han Xiao passed EsGod to another dynasty fleet, who locked EsGod up in a secretive location.

The
other Beyond Grade As had also obtained their evolution and left
satisfied, leaving Han Xiao as the only one who returned to Planet
Crimson Ring.

He immediately contacted Feidin and the rest. After a month apart, they were finally reunited.

His
goals for going to the Central Galaxy this time had been achieved. Han
Xiao announced the end of the vacation before taking them back on his
own spaceship, departing back for the Shattered Star Ring.

In the
spaceship, Han Xiao took the excuse of not meeting them for a long
time to have a meal and thoroughly 'molested' Feidin and Nero.

Feidin
was used to it and just had a face of helplessness, but Nero squirmed
left and right, not used to Han Xiao's 'passionate' self. He was dizzy
from all the 'love' given by Han Xiao's big hands.

Reynold
thought that he would undergo such a treatment as well and took a deep
breath, psychologically preparing himself, but Han Xiao only turned and
left, as though not interested in him. This made Reynold feel a little
depressed.

After recharging his luck, Han Xiao locked himself in
the room and opened the interface to complete the mission [Archenemy of
the Three Universal Civilizations].

_____________________

The mission [Archenemy of the Three Universal Civilizations] has been completed.

Your cumulative damage to EsGod is calculated as 100% (up to the maximum limit). You will obtain the corresponding reward.

You have been awarded 20,000,000,000 experience, x1 Random Reward, x1 [Character Summon Card—EsGod].

[Character
Summon Card—EsGod] Esper Ability—Ability Enhancement. This can only be
used on Espers that are lower than your current level. It allows the
potential of the ability to receive a permanent upgrade. Each target can
only be promoted once. Uses: 0/3

_____________________

Han Xiao's eyes sparkled.

This skill… is a little overpowered.

If
a civilization's Beyond Grade A has this ability, it would be
equivalent to an unlimited number of Esper Ability Potential Enhancing
Fluid shots. Even if this could only be used on Espers, it was enough to
raise the prowess of the Espers in the entire civilization by one
whole level.

This was a strategic level ability!

A pity,
the one who obtained this was EsGod. With his stingy character, chances
were low that he would help his subordinates raise their strength.

EsGod
had collected all these abilities, which was equivalent to killing off
a lot of potential geniuses. If the original owners of this ability
did not fall to EsGod, it was likely that they would have become
distinguished guests of the Universal Civilizations.

_____________________

Additional mission requirements have been completed.

You have received an additional reward: Random draw of three skills of EsGod (Talent/Ability)

Alert: EsGod is an Esper. Part of the possible abilities have been automatically adjusted to your class.

You
have three chances to draw, and at least one ability will be randomly
selected each time. Please select your type of draw (Talent / Ability /
Both).

_____________________

Han Xiao rubbed his hands, choosing the Talent option.

Since
the Esper class was incompatible with his due to the different sources
of strength, he knew that many Esper Abilities could not be extracted.

Since
he could obtain abilities this time, he should by right utilize it.
However, it would likely be more beneficial for him to obtain a good
talent first.

_____________________

Randomizing… complete.

Please select one to three options from the five below as the reward:

1. Talent: Particle Structure Reinforcement – Immunity to True Damage.

2. Talent: Crazed Devotee – +20% Resistance to abnormal mental status.

3.
Talent: Cell Division Control – Consumes energy to stimulate cell
division and achieve powerful self-healing properties. Converts energy
into HP at a 1:3 ratio, capped at 15% HP per second.

4. Talent: Endurance Enhancement – +40% Physical and Energy resistance.

5. Talent: Combat Instincts – Upon entering a combat state, +1% to all attributes, capped at 12%.

_____________________

Han Xiao's eyes sparkled. He drew two Molding Talents this time, which were the first and third options.

His
gaze was firmly locked on the [Cell Division Control]. This talent
should have been converted from the 'strengthened self-recovery' of
EsGod, which was similar to his [Middle Grade Cell Proliferation
Control]. It was just that the efficiency was not as high as his.

His
own HP had now broken through 500,000, and even if he converted all of
his energy, it would not even reach ten percent of his total HP. It
was far from achieving the cap of twenty-eight percent per second.
Thus, he would benefit by increasing the efficiency of the conversion.

As for the ability to be immune to true damage, he already had it, and there was no need to reselect it.

_____________________

You have chosen [Cell Division Control].

Your [Middle Grade Cell Proliferation Control] is similar to [Cell Division Control], and the two talents will be combined.

Talents can be upgraded! Han Xiao was excited.

Certain similar talents could be merged together to form a stronger talent, which was equivalent to an upgrade.

_____________________

Combination complete.

You have lost [Cell Division Control].

Your talent [Middle Grade Cell Proliferation Control] has been upgraded to [High Grade Cell Proliferation Control].

High
Grade Cell Proliferation Control: Make use of energy to proliferate
cells, heal wounds, and convert energy into HP at a ratio of 1:9.
Recovery rate capped at 35% of total HP per second.

_____________________

His
conversation rate had now increased from 1:5 to 1:9, almost doubling
the recovery speed. The cap had also increased from twenty-eight percent
to thirty-five percent.

Han Xiao exhaled before continuing with the second draw. He still stuck to the Talent option.

Another
five random talents were drawn, and after a glance, Han Xiao chose the
Talent [Spiritual Onsen], which gave him an added twenty percent
psychological resistance, as well as accelerated the removal of any
abnormal mental statuses and soul damage.

Mental attacks were his shortcoming, so there was a need to stack his psychological resistance.

For his third draw, he still chose Talent. Sweeping the randomized reward, his eyes lit up.

Among
the five, one of them seemed to be the adjusted version of EsGod's
Esper ability [Black Hole], which could convert a portion of the
incoming damage into energy values.

After choosing this talent, the [Intermediate Energy Absorption] combined with this to form a new talent.

_____________________

Your [Intermediate Energy Absorption] has been promoted to [Expert Energy Absorption].

Expert
Energy Absorption: When subject to any physical, energy, magical, or
other attacks, incoming damage is reduced by 25% and converted to
energy. The absorbed damage value is not counted as offset by
resistance, and the remaining 75% of damage received will be used to
calculate the resistance instead. 60% of the damage offset by resistance
will be converted into energy.

_____________________

Han Xiao roughly did a calculation.

"If
I count it like this, my efficiency in converting damage to energy
will have increased by more than 1.5 times, and the upgraded talent now
offers twenty-five percent more absolute resistance."

With the
addition of the [Black Hole] specialty, it directly converted part of
the damage into energy, which was equivalent to saving the energy
required to restore this amount of HP.

If his resistance was
fifty percent and he received ten thousand damage in theory, then the
initial talent effect would mean he received five thousand damage and
absorbed three thousand energy.

After the upgrade, the effect now was receiving 3,750 damage and absorbing 4,750 energy.

The energy obtained was more than the HP lost!
