Chapter 1 The Gedorah Patrol finally arrived, hovering beside the Hornbill, sending a communication request. The shield had disappeared, and signals could be received.

The mission notification was completed, and a new prompt appeared, requiring him to go to the captain to receive the reward.

Han Xiao arrived at the main control room, and all the players followed. The captain was communicating with the patrol team, explaining the situation. The patrol captain learned that the scavengers had been eliminated and asked for the specifics.

The scavenger attack was just a small security issue. Since the tour group was safe and sound, it was enough to record the process according to the procedure and enter it into the duty log.

Although he met compatriots, Kerlodd was very well-behaved, standing beside Han Xiao, playing with his pigtails.

The call ended, the patrol team left, and the captain turned on the broadcast again, announcing to the entire ship: "The crisis has been resolved. I'm sorry to have frightened everyone. The Hornbill will go directly to the Jubely Hub for docking and repairs."

Throughout the ship, the surviving passengers cheered, hugged each other, and were deeply moved.

Turning off the broadcast, the captain finally had time to thank Han Xiao and the others, with a grateful expression, and asked, "Thank you very much for your help. I don't know your name yet."

"Han Xiao."

The captain repeated it several times, confirming that he had not heard of the name, not a famous mercenary or warrior.

"I will honor my promise, and you will all receive a reward."

Reldon coughed beside him.

The captain hesitated and said, "Green Knight, your reward will not be less either." Although Reldon ran away halfway, he had fought.

Reldon nodded.

Han Xiao raised his eyebrows. The title Green Knight evoked some memories, like a fleeting flash of lightning. He frowned and thought for a while, intermittently recalling some information.

Generally speaking, the details he remembers are basically valuable.

"Green Knight... Sunil Clan?" Han Xiao muttered softly.

This group... seems to have a storyline.

The captain paid the rewards by transfer. The players who accepted the task all received a share, registered their respective accounts, and then the captain transferred the money in one go, 1,500 Enas each, equivalent to Kerlodd's salary for more than half a year, which was very generous. Hao Tian and others did not receive the task because they were not online at the beginning, and they were extremely envious at this time, and the resentment was about to condense into clouds.

Although the Hornbill tour group was relatively low-level, it belonged to a consortium after all, and the Hornbill, a valuable tour ship, was preserved, and the money was paid by the consortium.

The 8,000 Enas given by the captain was a personal commission, exclusive to Han Xiao.

Han Xiao's book deposit skyrocketed to 10,000+, more than ten times over, and he was very happy. The first pot of gold earned in space was a good amount, and the starting capital was much more abundant. The players all got the money, and Han Xiao was also very happy. This group of players has general currency, which means they have purchasing power. Find a chance to sell them things and pay with Enas, and he can earn another sum.

If only he accepted the task alone, he could only get fixed money. The participation of players is equivalent to indirectly expanding profits dozens of times. The money in the players' pockets is equivalent to Han Xiao's reserve small treasury.

[【Protect the Hornbill】Completed]

[【The Captain's Commission】Completed]

[Area Reputation Enabled!]

[Location: Colton Star Cluster - Garton Star System]

[Fame: 2]

[Level: Unknown]

The area reputation system is a new function that appears after players enter the interstellar world. The universe is vast, and players accumulate their regional fame by doing tasks and deeds in different areas. The area reputation is linked to the initial relationship with the area's forces. If the reputation is high enough, they will gain legend, which is a designated way to obtain legend.

The larger the area, the more difficult it is to accumulate fame. Protecting the Hornbill left a good impression on the consortium behind it, which is a small deed that can be written into the resume.

Area fame is a good thing. Dealing with forces, receiving tasks, etc., all have fame requirements. The higher the fame, the higher the level of contact, and the corresponding rewards are more generous.

The reputation system is a key function, and many players in the previous life were willing to be liver emperors in order to brush their fame.

Han Xiao's previous business also included quickly brushing fame. As the saying goes, destruction is easier than construction, good things don't go out, bad names travel thousands of miles. After he usually brushed fame, the employer's account was also burdened with the wanted status of most of the forces in the area... What, refund? Impossible.

After settling the rewards, Reldon turned around and left. Han Xiao's eyes flashed, and he stepped out, blocking Reldon.

"What's the matter?" Reldon stopped. He was quite impressed with Han Xiao and was a little surprised why he stopped him.

Han Xiao rolled his eyes, coughed, and said, "I caught the leader of the Boneless Birds, called Serpentine Braid. I'm going to exchange him for a bounty, but I just checked, and I have to go to a relatively distant galaxy for the handover. I don't want to run that far. How about I resell this hostage to you?"

Reldon was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, no problem."

"Serpentine Braid's bounty is 3,500 Enas, transfer the money to me."

Reldon frowned, "You don't want the full amount, do you? That's impossible. I have to go to a very far place to collect the bounty, which also costs money. If I don't make any money, why should I exchange?"

"How much do you want to offer?"

"1,500."

Why don't you just rob me?! Han Xiao suddenly smelled a trace of a fellow professional, his eyes instantly became serious, and he slowly said, "3,000."

"1,800."

"At least 2,900."

"2,000!"

The two bargained and haggled for a long time. Reldon was very persistent on the issue of money, not letting go of even a little bit of profit. He was obviously a cold person, but now he was arguing red-faced for two-digit Enas.

After arguing for a long time, the price was finally settled. Reldon paid 2,501 Enas in exchange for Serpentine Braid. The extra 1 point can be regarded as the victory of Grand Technician Han...

After talking about a business deal, Han Xiao felt that he had also gotten to know Reldon. His eyes flashed and he said, "Do you know the reason for this attack?"

Reldon shook his head and asked, "From the looks of you, you seem to know the inside story."

Han Xiao smiled slightly, staring closely at Reldon's expression, and said slowly, "This group of scavengers were hired by DarkStar. They came to capture that Gedorah person over there. How unlucky, don't you think?"

When he heard the word "DarkStar," Reldon's pupils shrank, his eyes subconsciously changed, and a trace of deep hatred and anger flashed, as if he remembered something bad.

"Oh, I see." Finally, Reldon took a breath, returned to calm, and said goodbye expressionlessly.

Han Xiao smiled and pointed to Reldon's body, "I'm a mechanic. If you don't mind, I can do a simple repair for you."

Reldon paused, "Is it free?"

"Hehe, our relationship hasn't reached that level yet. I just need a labor fee. I think 5 Enas would be good."

"Then forget it... Nice to meet you, goodbye."

Reldon turned and left.

Han Xiao said helplessly, "Tsk tsk, not even giving me five yuan, so stingy."

Kerlodd came to the side, shook his head and sighed, hinting, "Surnil Clan, it's understandable to be so 'greedy'."

"I know." Han Xiao nodded, secretly calculating in his heart.

He deliberately talked to Reldon, in addition to reselling the wanted criminal, also to get to know Reldon. Since he remembered the other party's identity, Han Xiao had a new idea.

Sunil Clan, this clan exists in the Garton Star System, and there is a very good separate storyline. Originally, it would not be possible to come into contact with it until later versions, but through the test of Reldon just now, he can be sure that this storyline exists at this point in time.

He clearly remembers that the Sunil Clan's storyline has the opportunity to obtain a very rare sub-class. Now he is stuck in the transfer requirements and needs a sub-class. This is a very important link.

Moreover, this storyline has protagonist-type characters. Han Xiao is very concerned about protagonist-type characters, which is related to his other upcoming blueprint plan.

Entering the interstellar world, one of the goals is to seek growth. With these two reasons, coupled with today's accidental meeting, Han Xiao suddenly had the idea of participating in the Sunil Clan's storyline, which is very beneficial to him, and also has some involvement with the main storyline.

The Sunil Clan is a small civilization in the Garton Star System. They originally lived a wealthy life and were affiliated allies of the Gedorah civilization. But one day, DarkStar invaded on a large scale and destroyed the Sunil Clan's hometown. The surviving Sunil people migrated and were sheltered by Gedorah, and a piece of land was divided on a certain planet, struggling to survive, and the fire of civilization was wavering, so when DarkStar was mentioned, Reldon would uncontrollably show anger.

It was almost the hatred of genocide.
