Chapter 750 Unexpected Invitation

Planet Macipher, the Cornerstone Summit Corporation .

Han Xiao had been working here for more than twenty days . His name had already spread widely among the Senior Engineers . The entire corporation knew that a highly skilled Mechanic had joined them and that he had completed more than ten times the workload of a normal Senior Engineer in less than a month .

As the boss behind them had already spoken, the upper echelons of the corporation did not worry about the confidentiality of the blueprint anymore and daringly used Barne . They gave him extra quotas to hit, which led to Han Xiao getting more and more parts of the Eternal Light blueprint .

The [Engineer] mission was already completed, and he had obtained the [Proficient Technician] talent . Its effect was a slight increase in the attributes of the machinery he built of eight to fourteen percent, twenty-two percent quicker building speed, and six percent reduced cost . This scaled well given how much machinery he would be building, so it was quite a good talent .

As Han Xiao obtained the talent, he had only had one goal left in the Cornerstone Summit Corporation—to steal… no, learn the blueprint of Eternal Light .

Due to how many responsibilities were given to him, Han Xiao learned quite a lot of the blueprints . As for the blueprints given to the other Senior Engineers, he used Virtual Technology to hack into the artificial intelligence assistants of those Grade B Mechanics and monitored them in various ways . When the Senior Engineers looked at their blueprints, Phillip would then capture the image and duplicate the blueprint .

As for some blueprints that he was unable to see with this method, Han Xiao just visited those Senior Engineers with various excuses . All he had to do was look at the blueprint for a short while, and he would be able to obtain the blueprint through the interface .

Sadly, after a past Race Evolution, he had lost the Observer’s Mark ability, otherwise secretly learning the blueprint would be much easier .

In more than half a month, Han Xiao was able to obtain the majority of the Eternal Light’s blueprint . All that was left were the core blueprints . These were all tightly stored by the core engineers of the corporation, and Han Xiao had no chance to see them . He had been pondering how to obtain these blueprints for quite some time .

During this time, as players were learning more Knowledges from the faction store, his Experience increased once again .

Inside the workshop, Han Xiao was doing his job while looking at the Experience he had on his interface, calculating .

With the current amount of Experience I have, I should be able to reach about level 238 or 239 . I’m just one step away from Lv240, which will be filled up in three or four more days…

Han Xiao was secretly excited . Beyond Grade As were on a completely different level to Calamity Grades . They were important people throughout the entire Galaxy, and even Universal Civilizations had to take them seriously .

Once he succeeded, he would get a seat on the highest table of the Star Field, and the Black Star Army would become a real Beyond Grade A organization .

After looking forward to it for a while, Han Xiao looked at the time . It was time for his lunch break . He stopped working, retracted all the building assistants, and planned to go for lunch .

As soon as he walked out of the workshop, Han Xiao noticed that Luke was standing outside the door .

“Bame, I was looking for you . ”

“What is it? You want to have lunch with me?” Han Xiao stopped and looked at this old gentleman curiously .

Luke smiled and shook his head . “I’d be glad to do so, but this is not why I’ve come . The real owner of the corporation wants to see you . ”

The real owner? Han Xiao raised his brows . “Sure, lead the way then . ”

Luke gestured for Han Xiao to follow him and led him to the core area of the corporation .

After walking for more than ten minutes, the two of them arrived at the top floor of a tall building and entered a wide office .

In the room, a person sat in a chair with the chair’s back facing the door . Han Xiao could only see the back of his head . Luke stepped back and closed the door, leaving Han Xiao and this so-called ‘real owner of the corporation’ in the room . This time, this person spoke with his back still facing Han Xiao .

“Bame, this isn’t your real name, right?”

Then, this person turned around to face Han Xiao .

Seeing his appearance, Han Xiao was stunned for a moment before understanding .

It was Sardeem . Of course, that made sense . As the owner of Planet Macipher, Sardeem controlled many of its industries . The Cornerstone Summit Corporation belonging to him was not much of a surprise .

In his previous life, the players only knew that a talent would be rewarded if they worked in the Cornerstone Summit Corporation, and any Mechanics could do this mission . However, with the strength of the players at that stage, they did not come into contact with the corporation’s core . In the players’ eyes, the Cornerstone Summit Corporation was just a small unimportant side mission . Therefore, the players did not know that the owner of this shipyard turned out to be Sardeem . Nonetheless, this was not difficult to guess .

This means that the Eternal Light blueprint belongs to Sardeem… Why did he suddenly call me here? Did he find out who I am?

Han Xiao’s mind was racing .

Of course, he was not afraid at all . Although Sardeem was a Grade A+ Mechanic as well, he would be no match for him . However, he just wanted to secretly learn the Eternal Light blueprint . If his identity was exposed, he would have no choice but to snatch it… Still, Han Xiao did not like making enemies .

Seeing that Han Xiao did not speak, Sardeem gave a knowing smile .

“I’ve been observing you for quite some time . You’ve actually been hiding your strength . You’re not a Grade B+ Mechanic but a Calamity Grade Mechanic, am I right?”

Without waiting for Han Xiao to reply, Sardeem sized Han Xiao up and continued .

“A Calamity Grade willing to work in my company as a normal engineer makes me doubt your true intentions . Through my observations, you seem to be interested in the Eternal Light blueprint, right?”

After hearing what Sardeem said, Han Xiao felt relieved instead .

Whew, luckily, this guy only noticed that I’m Grade A and did not find out my real identity . He just thinks I’m a normal Calamity Grade Mechanic .

Seeing how confident Sardeem looked, Han Xiao could guess that Sardeem was certain that he had the upper hand .

Indeed, Sardeem was Grade A+ and had the entire planet as his base . This was his territory, so normal Calamity Grades were indeed no match for him in this situation .

Figuring out Sardeem’s confidence, Han Xiao calmed down . Without correcting Sardeem’s misunderstanding, he acted alert as if he really was a normal Calamity Grade .

“What do you want?”

Seeing this, Sardeem smiled with satisfaction . ‘Barne’ becoming nervous was exactly what he wanted to see .

“I don’t know where you got the information about Eternal Light from, nor do I know which organization you belong to . But don’t worry, I did not call you here today to hold you accountable . Instead, I’m giving you an invitation . ”

“Invitation?” Han Xiao raised his brow .

Sardeem stood up, smiled, and said, “Become my subordinate . I can guarantee that this will be the wisest decision you ever make . ”

“You’re recruiting me?” Han Xiao said with a strange tone .

Isn’t that too careless? You don’t even know my identity .

Is this because you’re absolutely confident I won’t be a problem for you?

Pal, that’s a little arrogant of you . Even someone as outstanding as me is not this arrogant!

“I have a lot of companies and a lot of troops, but I’m short of a capable assistant . You have the ability to be one . Us together will be an amazing combo,” Sardeem said in a calm tone .

Han Xiao shook his head with resignation . “I’m not inter…”

This time, Sardeem shook his hand and interrupted Han Xiao . “If you’re willing to become my subordinate, not just Eternal Light, I can let you learn all the blueprints I know . ”

“Hmm, I will have to consider…” Han Xiao immediately changed what he was about to say . As the leader of a faction, of course, he was not going to be a subordinate of a Calamity Grade . However, scamming some blueprints from him seemed to be quite tempting .

After all, whatever Barne does has nothing to do with Black Star… ahem .

Han Xiao suddenly asked, “Are you forcing me? If I don’t join you, will you use force on me?”

Sardeem shook his head and laughed .

“Don’t worry, I don’t like making enemies . If I was hostile toward everyone like you that visited Planet Macipher, I wouldn’t have been able to last till now . You can reject me, and I won’t chase you away . I won’t even force you to reveal your true identity . You can still stay in the Cornerstone Summit Corporation as ‘Bame’ . I have no need to reject a Grade A Mechanic from working in my company . However, I will always keep an eye on you, and I won’t let you take part in any important projects . ”

Han Xiao narrowed his eyes . “You’re quite generous . ”

“It’s very tough for someone petty to achieve great things in life . I’ve managed Planet Macipher for close to a hundred and thirty years,” Sardeem said calmly . “What situation have I not seen before? Hmm?”

Han Xiao contemplated for a while and still shook his head .

As an almost Beyond Grade A faction leader, it would be too shameless for him to become a subordinate of a Calamity Grade just because of a blueprint .

Although he did put on a disguise, if he accidentally exposed his true identity one day, it would be a mark on his history he would not be able to wipe off . It would damage his high reputation in the eyes of the players and would not be beneficial for building a sense of belonging for the faction, as well as the cultivation of leeks . In conclusion, the cons outweighed the pros .

The Eternal Light blueprint was indeed a good item, but it was not something that he had to obtain no matter what .

Also, you think that I won’t be able to get the blueprint without joining you?

You’re dreaming!

Seeing that Han Xiao had rejected him, Sardeem narrowed his eyes .

“Hehe, I know you have the pride of a Calamity Grade, but I’m worth following . Do you think that normal people would be able to get the flagship blueprint of the Federation of Light?”

Han Xiao was slightly moved .

Indeed, even he could not buy a blueprint as rare as the Eternal Light blueprint . How did Sardeem get it?

Sardeem put his hands behind his back and looked at Han Xiao . “You might think that as a Calamity Grade, you don’t have to become a subordinate of another Calamity Grade, so you rejected me… But what if I told you that I’m not just representing myself and there’s a Beyond Grade A behind this?”

“Hmm?” Han Xiao noticed something .

Now that he thought about it carefully, there should be some unknown reasons that brought about Planet Macipher’s prosperity other than Sardeem’s personal strength . He might indeed be a secret officer of a certain Beyond Grade A .

However, there were only four Beyond Grade As in the Shattered Star Ring . Who did this guy work for?

Tyrant? Possible, but not likely . After all, Sardeem was not a buffed and muscular dude .

Magus? That did not feel right either . Sardeem was not a mage…

Star Pupil? Not likely given how rarely that guy left his own territory .

Could it be the Dragon Emperor? Laughable .

Seeing that Han Xiao was confused, Sardeem shook his head and smiled .

“You have definitely heard of him before . ”

Pride appeared on Sardeem’s face, together with a sense of superiority .

“Do you know about… the Mechanic Empire?”

Han Xiao was completely shocked and almost wanted to leave right away .

Mechanic Empire Manison?

Don’t know, never heard before, bye!
