Chapter 1 The Mechanical Chassis

The role of the mechanical chassis is the same as that of a host. While accommodating the Chaos Hidden Energy, it uses its own You Energy core to exert an effect similar to the urging of Qi, thereby releasing special abilities. It doesn't need to start from scratch like an ordinary host; it can directly exert a strong combat power.

The combat power depends on the chassis's own performance and the fusion rate, synchronization rate, and other parameters of the Chaos Hidden Energy. In simple terms, the situation is similar to that of the Otherworlder. An esper who was already strong becomes the host, and with a foundation of strength, he can unleash the power of the Chaos Hidden Energy right away.

However, the Chaos Hidden Energy mainly provides ability, only equivalent to a tool, constrained within the chassis. It is the mechanical chassis itself or the combat AI Sparta that controls the body to fight.

Because this chassis is only a prototype, there is still considerable room for optimization, so Han Xiao didn't intend to immediately turn it into an Apostle Weapon.

"Let's call this machine model [Mystic Energy Apostle · Prototype], and the official code name will be given after it becomes an Apostle Weapon."

Han Xiao was satisfied. He had a large number of skills that increased the upper limit of mechanical skills, and there were still vacancies for Apostle Weapons.

"Okay, buzz, model recorded, database entry complete."

Han Xiao nodded, carefully looked at the Mystic Energy Apostle, and asked, "How do you feel?"

The next moment, a mental wave was released, and the Chaos Hidden Energy inside spoke, "A bit crowded, not very comfortable. Give me a better chassis in the future."

"Don't worry, the template has already been made, optimization is very simple." Han Xiao waved his hand. His strengthening skills were equally powerful.

"Hmph, replace the chassis with a mechanical life as soon as possible, so at least there will be someone to communicate with, unlike now, it's like being in jail." The Chaos Hidden Energy complained.

Han Xiao suddenly thought of something, "By the way, do you think I can cut you into eight pieces and load them on different Mystic Energy Apostles, so I can have a Chaos Hidden Energy squad?"

"Don't even think about it!" The Chaos Hidden Energy bristled, "You are not allowed to split my body! Absolutely! Not! Allowed!"

"Such a big reaction. In your senses, is this behavior very uncomfortable?" Han Xiao was curious. He mainly thought of the Otherworlder's behavior in his previous life and couldn't help but ask.

"Hmph, it's like you dismembering a person, and he has to watch others use his body parts as weapons, waving his arms and legs to fight, manipulating his body at will, squandering his flesh, and all the parts still have pain, which can be transmitted back to the brain. Do you think it's comfortable?" The Chaos Hidden Energy was dissatisfied.

"...Cough, I didn't mention it."

Han Xiao thought for a while, and it seemed that this scene was a bit perverted. He coughed dryly, his expression calm, as if nothing had happened.

He then tested the combat power of the prototype Mystic Energy Apostle and various application methods of the ability, and the results made him very satisfied.

As a complex and ultra-high-risk ability, the Chaos Hidden Energy is very rich in capabilities. It can enhance itself, radiate powerful energy with both spiritual and spatial attributes, fly at super-speed, and high-level applications include sub-dimensional travel, star core energy extraction, invisible telekinesis, gravity springs, and so on. The functions are very diverse.

At this time, because the prototype Mystic Energy Apostle has not yet received the transformation bonus of mechanical life and Apostle Weapon, its combat power is far from reaching Super A Grade, but in Han Xiao's calculations, once the Mystic Energy Apostle becomes an Apostle Weapon, relying on the flexible and multiple functions of the Chaos Hidden Energy, it can jump to become the most capable existence among the Apostle Weapons, and even Youzu, who has been evolving for many years, may not be his opponent.

"As long as the optimization is completed, the Mystic Energy Apostle will become my number one thug, and maybe even defeat ordinary Super A Grades."

Getting a powerful combat power, Han Xiao was very happy.

At this moment, Fei Li Pu suddenly trembled and said, "Master, buzz, Black Star Palace sent a message, a Super A Grade is coming to you."

"Who is it?" Han Xiao's eyes narrowed.

It was actually the Black Star Palace. Could it be that someone went to his territory to attack his base camp?

They were too bold. Was the Black Star Palace, which he had built at a great price, made of paper? In addition to the fleet stored in the base camp, less than two Super A Grades could basically not pose a threat to the Black Star Palace.

"Uh, neither, it's the empire's ally, Silver Shadow."

Han Xiao was stunned and puzzled.

What does this guy mean by going to my base camp without saying a word?

"Who is receiving him now? Did he express his intention?"

"Aimes is meeting him. He said that he brought a gift and wanted to exchange it for the qualification to use the Evolution Cube."

"So that's how it is." Han Xiao suddenly realized.

In the battle with Silver Shadow, because he won, Silver Shadow did not get the chance to be baptized by the Evolution Cube and has not mentioned it again. It is estimated that he is looking for bargaining chips to find a way to exchange with him.

"Then what gift did he bring me?" Han Xiao was curious.

"It seems to be some rare drawings and information. I don't know where he collected them."

"Sending drawings... not bad."

Han Xiao originally planned to befriend the Silver Shadow bus, so he had very loose requirements for Silver Shadow's bargaining chips. As long as the other party showed a good attitude, he would borrow the Evolution Cube... In this regard, Han Xiao's style was to treat people differently. Like Heber, a guy who makes trouble every day, even if he sent him the field of war, he would not borrow the cube.

"It's also a coincidence that my main body is not in the base camp." Han Xiao rubbed Fei Li Pu's face with his fingers, "Where has the throne been transported to?"

"Report to master, it will soon be at the Black Star Palace, about a few hours away, buzz." Fei Li Pu smiled and hugged Han Xiao's fingers.

"Then let Aimes chat with Silver Shadow for a while. I'll go over when the throne is delivered."

Once the Emperor was built, Han Xiao secretly escorted the locator "Throne" and Evans back to the Black Star Palace base camp with the mechanical troops. It had been a long time, and the transportation troops took the legion's exclusive express stargate channel, and the speed was very fast. It was almost home.

As long as he sent the throne home, he could instantly teleport back with the Emperor. As long as the stay time did not exceed three minutes and the teleportation function was reactivated, he could return here, and then start calculating the cooldown time. As a cosmic treasure-level equipment, the cooldown of teleportation was not long.

...

At the same time, Black Star Palace.

In the legion commander's reception room, Silver Shadow put his hands on his knees, sat with his legs together, looking restrained and polite.

On the opposite side, Aimes sat in the main seat, propped her chin with one hand, and casually manipulated the force field with the other, placing three glasses filled with wine on the table, and said with a faint smile: "Don't be restrained, have something to drink first."

Fu Ding smiled and echoed, "Your Excellency Silver Shadow, the legion commander went to inspect the territory and will be back in a few hours. Please wait a moment."

"Okay." Silver Shadow nodded and drank the wine in one gulp.

Aimes looked at Silver Shadow's unique bright silver body with interest, "I heard Black Star say that your strength is very good, and he is very optimistic about your potential."

"Thank you, I also respect Your Excellency Black Star very much."

Silver Shadow responded, looked at Aimes, hesitated to speak, hesitated for a while, and then opened his mouth and said: "Actually, I have a question to ask..."

"What do you want to say?" Aimes smiled lightly, picked up the wine and took a sip.

"Black Star is not here, why are you representing the legion to receive me?" Silver Shadow was a little hesitant.

In his opinion, although the Black Star Legion and the Dragon Tan Floating Island are allies, it seems that allies do not have the need to replace the host to receive the Super A Grade. After all, the real person in charge here is still the legion cadre, and the Dragon Seat should only be a guest, but now it is behaving like the host.

Could it be that, as the outside world rumors, there is that kind of relationship between Black Star and Dragon Seat?

"Is there anything strange about this?" Aimes raised her eyebrows, "Black Star asked me to come to him, he went out, of course I am here to receive Super A Grade guests."

Hearing this, Silver Shadow's expression suddenly became a little meaningful.

This taken-for-granted tone... Ha, the rumors are true!

He was a little strange just now why Aimes wanted to come to the Black Star Palace from so far away, but now he understood. If the two are in such a relationship, what else would Black Star call the Dragon Seat over for? Isn't it just for a long night and sleeplessness.

With this thought, Silver Shadow couldn't help but be more respectful. Although he didn't like to chat, he tried to talk to Aimes at this time.

After all, he had something to ask of Black Star, and the family members came out to receive him, so he couldn't leave them out in the cold, that would be too impolite.

...

At the same time, Emerald Star Cluster, the Black Star Legion front line stronghold.

A spaceship drove from a distance and slowly approached the planet stronghold.

Seeing this, the legion defense force in the outer space of the planet immediately sent out two battleships to meet and intercept them, and issued a warning in the wide-area channel.

"Stop advancing, please report your identity immediately!"

After the message was sent, the strange spaceship slowly stalled and hovered in outer space.

And at the next moment, a tyrannical energy fluctuation erupted suddenly, and all the energy detection radars of the entire stronghold sounded instantly, issuing incessant warning buzzes.

Rumble!

"Warning! Warning! High-energy burst detected, matching event model... Matching complete, the model is a Super A Grade energy burst!"

Swish——

The entire stronghold suddenly became agitated. The fleet in outer space immediately converged, and the giant cannons on the ground also raised their heads one after another, locking on the spaceship. A large number of battleships quickly rose into the air, and countless muzzles were aimed at the spaceship. The stronghold instantly entered combat state.

And at the next moment, Thoran's figure appeared in the wide-area channel, spurting out demonic fire all over his body, laughing wildly arrogantly.

"Ah ha ha ha ha... Hela! I'm here to avenge you! I was injured by you last time, this time I want to wash away my shame, dare to fight me again!"

Saying that, he pressed the aura of the Super A Grade towards the stronghold, straight to Hela.

In the training room, Hela suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes narrowed.

Her mind flashed Han Xiao's warning some time ago, telling her to be smarter when encountering things recently, and maybe someone would come to make trouble.

At this time, seeing her former defeated opponent who had softened and begged for mercy arrogantly running to challenge her, a thought flashed through her mind instantly:

"There's a fraud... Does this really treat me as a martial arts fanatic?"

At this moment, the adjutant sent a message.

"Your Excellency Hela, he is challenging you, what should we do?"

Hela looked indifferent and said lightly: "What does the legion manual say? How to respond when encountering an enemy approaching the stronghold? Do you still need me to teach you this kind of thing? Just because the other party is a Super A Grade, you don't know what to do? Then what's the use of me having you, eh?"

The adjutant shrank his neck, "I, I understand."

The spaceship in outer space was surrounded by the Black Star Legion fleet. After Thoran issued the challenge, he patiently waited for Hela to come forward, secretly planning in his heart:

"Based on the character shown by Hela, she is a battle maniac. If she encounters my challenge, there is a 70% probability that she will agree. Now Kesuye and the others are hiding not far away. As long as I try to lure her over during the battle with her, I can complete the ambush."

He was thinking about the combat plan for a while, when suddenly a strong light lit up in his vision.

Thoran hurriedly looked up at the porthole, only to see the Black Star Legion fleet surrounding him firing directly without even saying hello.

The light of countless energy cannons filled his vision!

Thoran's face changed drastically.

Damn, you don't play cards according to the routine!
