"Is it a coefficient-type bonus? The magnitude is quite impressive."

Han Xiao's eyes lit up.

The bonus of expertise has undoubtedly reached the level of a template.

Not to mention the 10% increase in intelligence, based on his current intelligence base, which is a few thousand attribute points. And under the combined effect of the bonus coefficients of mechanical strength and mechanical efficiency, his actual mechanical combat ability has increased a lot.

, I'm afraid that if I don't pull out an apostle weapon, I can compete with the high-level super-A level.

Judging from the mechanism of the panel prompts, the difficulty of awakening the exclusive specialties is higher than the last, but the effects are also stronger with the new ones than the old ones. Lao Maitou has both single bonus specialties such as [Virtual Technology Innovation] and [Billions of Mechanics].

Country] Such a large-scale bonus expertise, the latter is obviously the ultimate product formed by Lao Maitou after adding several exclusive expertise, but it was directly taken away by himself.

"Oh, Old Maitou, Old Maitou, you are so at a loss..."

Han Xiao sighed and laughed sadly.

Since it is an increasingly powerful mechanism, he is not dissatisfied with the first exclusive expertise. He just doesn’t know when the prototype of the exclusive expertise will be triggered next.

I don’t know if Lao Maitou has any expertise in increasing his awakening rate...

Han Xiao subconsciously licked his lips, feeling a little itchy.

Looking back, I have to admit that Lao Maitou's background is really rich. It's a pity that he is a teammate on the same team now, so he is embarrassed to start, otherwise he really wants to explode Lao Maitou's database... After all, for a mechanic

, other people’s databases are too tempting.

Putting aside this impulsive thought, Han Xiao looked at the panel again. The name and notes of the specialty were still waiting to be filled in. He couldn't help but feel a little pain in his head.

As a person who has difficulty naming, he has quite high confidence in his naming ability.

"What should I call it... I have to come up with a normal name this time. Otherwise, if one day I am drawn by a player using a character card, wouldn't it be a serious disaster?"

Han Xiao thought about it for a while and carefully wrote a name that he thought was reliable.

After confirming the name, the expertise content on the panel is immediately refreshed, the blank box for filling in the content disappears, and the name cannot be changed.

[[War Emperor·Han Xiao]]

[Note: Born for war]

"For a fighting ability, this should be considered normal."

Han Xiao felt that there was nothing wrong with it, but he was not sure about his aesthetics, but since he had already chosen a name, he didn’t have to worry about it anymore.

He was about to turn around and leave the research institute to try his hand at finding a nearby deserted planet, but at this moment, the communicator suddenly beeped, and a communication request came in.

When he took it out and took a look, it turned out to be the secluded master of the Four Gods Kingdom, an old man who had been beaten by him, the "Secret Mage" Joey Tanrian.

The screen connected and Joey's figure appeared on the screen.

"What? You contacted me suddenly, have you figured it out?" Han Xiao sounded interested.

Joey looked a little helpless, took a deep breath, and whispered: "We agreed to join the Transcendent A Grade Association, but we hope to retain the original freedom, and the coordinates of the Four Gods Kingdom must be kept confidential and cannot be known to other members. We usually

We will attend regular meetings, and if we encounter certain important events, we will also provide assistance, but we will not accept coercion... Is this okay?"

Hearing this, Han Xiao laughed.

These four hanging men finally made up their minds, and this is probably their bottom line.

"Okay, this is a good start. With your joining, the strength of the association has become stronger. I will not disclose your secondary dimension coordinates, and the association does not force members, but I will declare that you are super-human beings who live in seclusion.

Level A, and you need to be present in person when joining the membership, is that okay?"

"Okay." Joey nodded and hesitated: "As for the recovery of the sanctuary..."

"Don't worry, if you join the association, you will be one of our own. If you die, I will revive you."

"That's good……"

"Okay, send me all your information later. I will help you register for the association and arrange your initiation ceremony."

After chatting for a while, Han Xiao hung up the call. More than ten seconds later, he received the personal information from Joey and the other four, and asked Phillip to handle the membership process.

He thought for a while and called Vower. He had already negotiated with some covenant members and would go out when the time was right. Since Joey and others had also joined, he might as well arrange a time to join the group together to save trouble.

Soon, Vower appeared on the screen.

"Black Star, is something wrong?"

"Well, I have made arrangements for the initiation ceremony of the new batch of covenant members so that they can come to Glittering World..." Han Xiao gave instructions.

"I will inform them." After hearing this, Vower nodded, then hesitated, and suddenly said: "Black Star, I have something to inform you. The second set of Sanctuary keys is about to be collected.

"

"……So fast?"

Han Xiao was stunned.

Vower was responsible for this matter. He did not pay specific attention to it. He thought it would take at least several years for the covenant to collect the second key. He did not expect it to be so efficient.

"Yes, in the resource list provided by the Transcendent Star Cluster Alliance, there are many materials that are sanctuary keys. It is difficult to buy them in the outside world. However, these advanced civilizations have stocks, and there are also some relatively sensitive materials that are prohibited from being put on the market.

There are actually stocks in some black market warehouses, and you handed them over, which greatly accelerated our collection progress."

Vower explained.

"So that's it." Han Xiao understood and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that an invisible burden had been lifted.

Only by obtaining the second Sanctuary Key can we truly have the confidence to deal with the liquidation, and we no longer need to scare the three major civilizations by pretending to be strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

"Which sanctuary key is about to be collected?" Han Xiao was curious.

"This time it's the First Sanctuary."

Han Xiao suddenly became energetic.

The last time I entered was the Third Sanctuary, which contained mostly knowledge about organisms, genes, abilities, and so on. Although it was rewarding, it didn’t quite match my profession after all. The First Sanctuary seemed to be closely related to mechanical technology.

If you can get in touch, you can probably get the most suitable skills for mechanics, which will be the most profitable.

It just so happens that my authority in the First Sanctuary is also very high, higher than that in the Third Sanctuary. There are currently seven fragments in total, which are equivalent to level 7 authority. As long as I enter the First Sanctuary, I can add another fragment and upgrade it to level 8.

At that time, there will be more things that can be done in the sanctuary.

"So how is the collection of other sanctuary keys going?"

"Let me show you..." Vower sent a bunch of data.

The covenant has digitized the search progress of each sanctuary key. It seems intuitive. At this time, in addition to the first sanctuary key that has reached 92% of the progress, the second highest is the third sanctuary key with 67% progress. The other sanctuary keys have the second highest progress.

The search progress for the keys is basically around 40%, with only the Sixth Sanctuary being the most aloof, with only 7% progress.

Han Xiao took a look at the progress, then looked at the material list details of each sanctuary key, and encouraged: "I will also try to pay attention to these materials, and keep up the good work..."

"Well, you should work hard, the organization will not treat you badly." Vower said it first, feeling comfortable all over, and hung up the communication without waiting for Han Xiao to answer.

Han Xiao put down the communicator and scratched his head with a strange expression.

He usually spoke like this to Vower, but he didn't expect Vower to suddenly change to this tone, catching him off guard.

Interesting, is this because you are not willing to be bossed around all the time, so you want to overpower me and take advantage of me verbally?

Humph, childish ghost...

Next time I will definitely speak faster than you!

Han Xiao curled his lips and decided not to be on the same level as Vower. Everyone knew who was the boss who made the decision anyway.

"The second set of keys is almost collected. We can consider looking for opportunities to have a preliminary showdown with the three major civilizations..."

Han Xiao calmed down and pondered.

According to his judgment of the situation, one of the effective ways to resolve the stalemate between the three major civilizations and the Association is to seek peace through war, allowing the three major civilizations to launch liquidation, and the two sides will put their horses and horses into battle, and wait for the Association

After suffering heavy casualties, everyone was resuscitated, showing the truth that there is no limit to the number of times the sanctuary can be resuscitated.

In this way, while the three major civilizations have learned a painful lesson, they also know that they cannot contain the Transcendent A class. There is a high probability that they will give up their current strategy, cease their activities, stop engaging in these useless targets, and concentrate on studying the Sanctuary. In this way, they can achieve

The new round of checks and balances should be maintained for a long time.

However, although this method has limited damage to the Transcendent A Grade Association, it can severely damage the three major civilizations. After all, the destroyed fleets, legions, and soldiers cannot be revived in the sanctuary. If the direct descendants of the three major civilizations die in this war

, even if Sanctuary Resurrection can resurrect them, Han Xiao will not let them resurrect in the same batch as the association members, it will inevitably be delayed.

His two goals are, one is to deal with the World Tree, and the other is to maintain the Transcendent A class and not follow the old path of the Star Alliance. The former has a higher priority.

"Before the World Tree War breaks out, try not to cause too much damage to the military forces that have explored the universe, so we still need to continue to control the intensity. The association will not take the initiative to provoke a fight and try to maintain the status quo. The second recovery of the Sanctuary is just

Amulet, only the three major civilizations take the initiative to provoke liquidation and implement this plan..."

Han Xiao exhaled a breath.

Another way of thinking is that it is possible not to start the war. At that time, in order to avoid damage to the living forces, maybe I have to go against my original wishes and reveal the information about the World Tree Civilization in advance, so that the war can break out earlier...

However, whether you believe that the three major civilizations will be ready by then is another matter.

"I hope the three major civilizations will stop playing with fire. It's good to be able to maintain the status quo..."

…

On the other side, there is the old galaxy, somewhere in the deserted universe.
To be continued...
