Chapter 110 Advanced
This is a person very familiar to all the people of Sunil, one of the few B-level superhumans in the tribe, their great hero, Fagner.
On the screen, Fagner said calmly, "Fellow countrymen, I am Fagner, and I believe many of you know me."
"Now, I'd like to issue a statement."
"From this moment forward, on behalf of forty percent of the superhumans, those you call the Guardians, I hereby declare our secession from the Sunil Clan and that we will never return—"
His choice of words and tone were extremely resolute, without the slightest wavering.
He stated that they, as superhumans, had done everything they could for the Sunil tribe and were now going to pursue their own freedom, no longer willing to serve their people.
Upon hearing this, the people of Sunil were as if suddenly struck by an icy rain, their joy at having survived the beast plague instantly frozen.
Everyone was stunned, their minds filled with confusion and bewilderment. They didn't understand what was happening; all they knew was that the guardian they had always relied on was now abandoning them!
The entire clan was shocked!
Fagner, along with the superhumans who had decided to leave, made no attempt to conceal their presence and walked out openly.
Those superhumans who still decided to protect their race rushed over in fury and confronted them in a clear-cut standoff.
All the mercenaries, including Li Yuan's Xuanji Mercenary Group, who were still waiting for the final payment, all showed expressions of anticipation and excitement.
The superhumans who chose to protect their race angrily rebuked Fagner and his gang for wanting to leave, while Fagner and his gang remained calm and showed no remorse.
Ultimately, no conflict broke out between the two groups, and Fagner led the Sunil superhumans, who wanted to leave, away.
At this time of widespread anxiety, Melos finally stepped forward.
With the concerted efforts of the military and leadership in promoting his work, his name quickly became known to the public, and he became a new role model.
As promised, the Sunil people paid the remaining wages to the mercenaries, and one by one they left. After fighting side by side for so long, they were deeply impressed by the Xuanji Mercenary Group, which had emerged unscathed. Before leaving, they all expressed their goodwill, knowing that they might fight side by side again someday.
Just before the Xuanji Mercenary Group was about to leave, Melos came looking for them.
Previously, Han Xiao had transformed into a "precognizer" and almost fooled Melos.
But after discovering that Han Xiao's prophecy about the impending split of the Sunil superhumans had actually come true, Melos now has much more trust in Han Xiao.
Then, Han Xiao pointed out that his birthplace, Aquamarine Star, was facing the same threat from Dark Star as Sunil, which further deepened Melos's impression of him.
After a series of combined attacks, Melos, who had originally planned to go to interstellar space to become a mercenary and make money for his race, was finally persuaded by Han Xiao to join the Xuanji Mercenary Group.
Meanwhile, in the mercenaries' rest area.
Hela sat cross-legged on the ground, her body surging with dark red energy, her aura fluctuating wildly, as if she were breaking through a bottleneck.
After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly opened her eyes, her aura rising steadily!
clap clap clap!
Sitting to the side, Li Yuan clapped his hands. Seeing Hela turn her head, he smiled and said, "Congratulations on becoming a B-level superhuman."
Aurora ran over and grabbed her hand, exclaiming, "Sister, you're amazing!"
Hela smiled and patted her head, then stood up and looked at Li Yuan: "Can we leave now?"
Li Yuan nodded: "Everything here is over, it's time to go."
Soon, the spaceship that had been contacted in advance landed.
The Xuanji Mercenary Group boarded the spaceship, and as it slowly ascended, Senyuan City grew smaller and smaller in sight until it disappeared from view.
This employment mission can be said to have come to a successful conclusion.
The beast calamity of the Sunil tribe greatly benefited everyone; Li Yuan, Hela, and Han Xiao all made a fortune.
When they left, not only had someone in the mercenary group broken through to B-rank, but they had also gained a new B-rank superhuman. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were completely outmatched.
Soon, the spaceship docked at the Juberly Hub.
Upon returning to the hub hall, the first thing Li Yuan did was to replace the original medium-sized lounge with a large one, making the mercenary group's stronghold more spacious and less cramped.
Then, with an incredibly considerate gesture, he announced, "We've been fighting for so long, everyone can disperse and rest."
The crowd immediately dispersed. The players had just finished their quest and were now quite wealthy, so they naturally wanted to browse through the many shops in the hub.
After acquiring new knowledge, Han Xiao rented another mechanical modification room and began upgrading his equipment.
Melos went alone to the mercenary hall to register for mercenary status and apply to join the Xuanji Mercenary Group.
Li Yuan then took Hela and Aurora to browse various shops. Since they all had a lot of Inar on them, they could buy whatever they wanted.
Inside a combat training room.
Li Yuan stood in the center of the training field, with streaks of fire continuously shooting out from a fireball the size of a human head in front of him.
These thumb-thick lines of fire snaked out and flew towards Melos from all angles and directions.
-
Melos brandished his ship-slaying sword, his martial arts aura surging as he dodged and weaved to dodge the incoming fire, slicing them apart one by one.
The two were not only sparring, but also helping Melos, who hadn't fought for many years, to regain his fighting skills.
Several hours later, Melos suddenly stopped, waved his hand, and said, panting, "Alright, alright, that's enough for today!"
Li Yuan smiled slightly, and the snaking lines of fire and the fireball in front of him instantly disappeared.
Seeing how relaxed he was, Melos shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Your superpower is too strong."
"It's just so-so," Li Yuan said modestly.
At this point, nearly half a month had passed since they returned to the Juberly Hub.
By this time, Melos had become quite familiar with the other members of the mercenary group.
The rest of the mercenary group had also had plenty of rest and were all eager to get ready for the next mission.
Only Han Xiao, since he plunged into the mechanical modification room, has not come out yet.
"Let's go grab a drink," Li Yuan said, walking towards the edge of the training field.
Melos had no problem with it; during his years of seclusion on Sunil, he had run a tavern and had long been a man who couldn't live without alcohol.
Before the two even reached the tavern they had visited before, an emergency announcement suddenly came from the regional news broadcast on a nearby high-rise building: "Breaking news: A Silver Spirit civilian travel group was attacked by mysterious scavengers while passing through the Shattered Star Ring, and a group of Silver Spirits have been captured by slave traders."
"It is understood that the attack took place in the Colton Cluster—Fevrean System—Sector 4. The scavengers' forces are unknown. The escaped Silver Spirits have issued a high bounty to recruit a mercenary legion to rescue their people."
This news immediately caught Melos's attention: "Silver Spirit? Is it that cosmic noble Silver Spirit?"
In the universe, certain powerful civilizations, along with highly evolved groups, are known as cosmic aristocrats.
For example, the ruling races of the three major cosmic-level civilizations are undoubtedly the highest-level cosmic nobles.
While the Silver Spirits are far from reaching the level of the three great civilizations, they are still a long-standing advanced civilization that enjoys a special status in the universe.
Without a doubt, these Silver Spirits are not short-term employers; the missions they issue to rescue their companions must come with a very high price.
Therefore, Melos's eyes lit up as soon as he heard the news.
Sunil Star had just experienced a beast calamity and was in dire need of rebuilding. It desperately needed money, so he naturally wanted to take the opportunity to make some money to fill the economic gap in his race.
Li Yuan nodded: "Let's check the relevant information first. A mercenary group like ours, which hasn't been established for long, might not be of any interest to others."
Neither of them were in the mood for drinking anymore, so they started investigating information related to the incident and compiled it together.
This group of Silver Spirits was abducted in the Favon system. Unlike the Garden system, which was controlled by the Godora civilization, the Favon system did not have a single dominant civilization like Godora. Instead, several star system-level civilizations that were slightly weaker than Godora controlled different star regions within the system.
Although these civilizations demarcated their territories, territorial disputes frequently occurred along their borders. While these disputes did not lead to wars, they caused chaos and rendered these areas virtually unclaimed.
The fourth sector of the Feiwen Galaxy lies right on the border, making its jurisdiction quite ambiguous. Neither of the two adjacent star-level civilizations responded to the Silver Spirits' calls for help.
Therefore, these Silver Spirits, having exhausted all other options, had no choice but to offer a high reward to mercenaries for help.
After understanding the whole story, Li Yuan thought for a moment and looked at Melos: "Let's go, let's go to the mercenary hall and send a message to Black Star, asking him to come too."
When the two arrived at the mercenary hall, they were surprised to find that there were far more people there than usual, clearly all attracted by the recruitment information of the Silver Spirits.
A few minutes later, Han Xiao arrived and joined Li Yuan and Melos.
Almost instantly, Li Yuan sensed the change in Han Xiao's strength.
Without a doubt, he has now also been promoted to Rank B.
"It's not easy. The minimum credit score for hiring Silver Spirit mercenaries is 400 points, and our mercenary group doesn't even have half that right now."
After reviewing the requirements of the task, the group sighed.
"There's nothing I can do, it's too late, there's not enough time." Han Xiao shook his head.
Just then, a person dressed in a pure white metallic combat suit suddenly appeared in front of Li Yuan: "You are the leader of the Xuanji Mercenary Group?"
"People from Tianhuan?" Li Yuan was slightly taken aback.
The Sky Ring Alliance is one of the top-tier mega-mercenary legions in the Broken Star Ring mercenary industry.
Not only do they have over ten thousand members, but their legion commander is also an A-level superhuman, with business operations spanning several star clusters.
"I am the leader of the Xuanji Mercenary Group. What do you need me for?" Li Yuan nodded.
"You have a good team. My squad leader would like to discuss cooperation with you. Is now a convenient time?" The mercenary from Sky Ring smiled amicably.
"It's convenient, let's go." Li Yuan thought for a moment and agreed.
Immediately afterwards, he, Han Xiao, and Melos followed the mercenaries of Tianhuan to their stronghold.
Nearly thirty Sky Ring mercenaries of different races were either standing or sitting in the stronghold. When they saw them enter, they all turned their gazes toward them.
Soon, a blond-haired, purple-skinned mercenary who was at least 2.2 meters tall stepped forward and came to Li Yuan: "My name is Gashley, and I am the captain of this squad."
The Sky Ring Allied Forces' combat uniforms are quite distinctive. On the pure white combat uniforms with mechanical structures resembling armor, there is an inverted triangular crystal embedded in the center of the chest.
The three apexes of the triangle extend into slender tubes. The two upper lines cross the shoulders, and the lower line crosses the crotch. The three lines converge at a single point in the center of the back.
Gashley's combat uniform differed somewhat from that of other Sky Ring Allied members.
A golden ring encircled the triangular crystal on the chest of his combat uniform.
This ring is a rank symbol within the Sky Ring Alliance. The more rings a member has, the higher their status, and status is naturally determined by strength.
Starting from the squad leader level, there is only one ring outside the triangular crystal, while at the Sky Ring Legion Commander level, there are a total of five rings.
"I am Li Yuan, the leader of the Xuanji Mercenary Group. This is Black Star, and this is Melos. We are both officers of the mercenary group." Li Yuan briefly introduced himself and the two people beside him.
He then cut to the chase: "You say you want to cooperate, what are the specifics?"
Gashley nodded, his gaze sweeping over the three of them before finally settling on Li Yuan. He said slowly, "We at Tianhuan are dedicated to recruiting outstanding warriors. You have a very capable team, and we would like to invite you to join Tianhuan."
The way mercenary organizations grow is by recruiting other mercenaries.
Because of its relatively free organizational structure, the Sky Ring Alliance allows each member to recommend other mercenaries.
If a strong person is successfully recruited, the recommender will receive a reward from the organization. Therefore, Tianhuan's mercenaries pay close attention to talented newcomers in the industry in order to discover them.
Recently, Gashley's forces happened to be stationed at the Juberly Nexus and heard about the Sunil campaign.
Among them, they noticed the rumor that the Xuanji Mercenary Group possessed a team of undead.
After verifying that this was not a rumor, Gashley immediately decided to extend an invitation to Li Yuan, wanting to recruit the entire Xuanji Mercenary Group into Tianhuan.
After all, mercenaries who can "resurrect" are extremely rare; I had only heard rumors about them before and had never actually seen one.
Now that living, breathing undead are right in front of us, of course we have to recruit them into our team.
Li Yuan was fully aware of Tianhuan's purpose in inviting them to join.
Not only him, but Han Xiao also understood what they were after.
After a quick exchange of glances, Li Yuan smiled and politely declined, saying, "Thank you for the invitation, but I don't really want to join any other organizations."
