Super Mechanic: The God of Superpowers!

Chapter 145: The Machinery Kingdom and Aroshia

At this moment, a flying vehicle streaked across the sky and slowly landed at the chaotic scene.

Housekeeper Jenny led a team to the scene quickly. Her arrival was like a ray of light, lighting up hope in Hollade's eyes.

He glared at Ye Xiu fiercely, as if to say "Just wait and see", then hurried towards Jenny with a flattering look on his face.

"Butler, I, I beg you to help me find my slave..." Hollaide eagerly recounted the whole story, his tone full of grievance and unwillingness.

"That new alien guy actually wants to let my slave go! This is a complete challenge to your authority. He doesn't even take you seriously!"

After listening to this, Jenny just nodded lightly, her expression as calm as water.

She didn't say anything more and walked straight towards Ye Xiu.

Seeing this, Hollaide immediately felt confident and followed Jenny closely, with a hint of complacency in his eyes and a sneer on his lips, as if he had already seen Ye Xiu's miserable end.

Jenny walked up to Ye Xiu, her tone calm but with unquestionable majesty: "Yixing, Black Star, you two did a great job. If you hadn't exposed the enemy's conspiracy in time, they might have succeeded."

"Not only will this severely damage the prestige of the Dragon Guard, but it will also plunge His Excellency the Dragon Throne into crisis during his absence."

"Your actions were very timely. I will record this achievement in your respective files and increase your trust authority."

"As a meritorious person, you can choose a monetary reward or other resources you desire..."

She paused for a moment, a hint of gentleness in her eyes, and continued, "Although this is a little late, I still want to say it - welcome you two to officially join Longtan."

Ye Xiu nodded slightly, his expression indifferent, not surprised by Jenny's attitude.

In fact, Jenny had already learned what had happened through the communication channel when she was talking with Visander.

Ye Xiu had already reached a tacit understanding with her, and only Hollaide was kept in the dark, thinking he had found a backer.

The more Holiday listened to Jenny's words, the more he felt something was wrong.

He originally thought that Jenny was here to support him, but he didn’t expect that she would praise Ye Xiu highly and even mentioned the promotion of authority and rewards.

He could no longer hold back and cautiously interrupted, "Butler, what should I do with my slave?"

Jenny turned her head and glanced at him calmly, her tone cold and firm: "The rules of Longtan are very clear. We only buy and sell slaves and never capture them ourselves. Now that they have been freed, let them go."

Holiday was suddenly struck by lightning and his face turned pale.

He opened his mouth, but found that he had nothing to say. He could only watch Ye Xiu standing beside Jenny with a calm expression.

But he himself, like a clown, saw the jokers of two playing cards on the ground in a trance.

Adhering to the principle of fairness has always been Jenny's code of conduct.

As a symbol of neutrality, Longtan has always served only as an intermediary bridge in the slave trade and has never degraded to participating in human abduction.

Ye Xiu has made great contributions this time, and Jenny will naturally remember his achievements in her heart. Not only will she grant him special treatment, but she will also tacitly approve of his way of doing things.

Furthermore, the slave trade was a low-profit business, yet Hollade had been seizing profits from it for years.

Although she had noticed this a long time ago, Jenny had just turned a blind eye to it.

Now that the time has come, she naturally has no intention of making excuses for him.

Howard stood there frozen, his anger about to burst out.

Looking at Ye Xiu and Han Xiao's teasing eyes, his cheeks twitched and he shouted hoarsely, "This attack must be a conspiracy concocted by Alien Star and Black Star! They clearly want to rescue the Silver Spirit people!"

"Those thugs must have been ordered by him! What's even more suspicious is that the group of people they deliberately let go are definitely accomplices!"

As his speech speed increased, Howard's saliva flew everywhere. This hastily put together conjecture actually formed its own logic in his mind.

Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows and sneered, "How could colleagues frame each other like this?"

Although Holland's intention to shirk responsibility was sinister, the unfounded accusation was unconvincing - the spies that Jenny had planted earlier because of her suspicions about the new member now became the most powerful alibi.

Jenny frowned indifferently and said, "It's time to end this farce. Howard, you have maliciously slandered your colleagues. You are suspended from work and are required to reflect on your actions."

A bone-chilling chill filled Hollade's heart, and he suddenly remembered how he had used the same method to frame Ye Xiu.

Now the situation has reversed, and the previous means have turned into a boomerang and hit itself.

In despair, he closed his eyes and collapsed to the ground, falling into unconsciousness again.

——Since everything is a foregone conclusion, I might as well sleep a little longer to avoid being annoyed to death by the mocking looks of people around me.

Ye Xiu ignored Hollaide's "playing dead", coughed lightly, and said, "Jenny, I..."

"You should call me Big... That's all. Just call me by my name." Jenny's expression was a little strange. Usually, only the leader Ames, and her peers Weisander and Hail would address her like that.

Her capable and decisive style made her subordinates keep their distance from her. This was the first time that her subordinates called her by her name, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Ye Xiu continued, "I know the true identities of those who escaped. They are not ordinary criminals..."

After saying this, he lowered his voice and whispered in Jenny's ear, "They come from the Dark Star."

Jenny's eyes tightened, and she said seriously, "Once you have finished your task here, tell me the details immediately."

Then she led everyone away quickly, leaving only the logistics team to clean up the ruins.

Ye Xiu and his group walked to the side. The rescued slaves looked at him with complicated eyes, their hearts full of anxiety. They had finally regained their freedom and did not want to lose it again. They were confused about the next arrangements.

Ye Xiu walked out of the crowd, looked around, and said calmly, "I am Yixing, the leader of the Yixing Mercenary Group. The person next to you is Black Star. Remember my name. I gave you freedom, and you owe me a favor. Perhaps one day in the future we will meet again, and I will need your help. You can leave now."

All the slaves were stunned for a moment, and one of them asked timidly, "I-We can really leave?"

Ye Xiu waved his hand, indicating that they could leave at any time.

One person took cautious steps, looking back every few steps. After walking dozens of meters, he found that there was indeed no one stopping him, and he was ecstatic.

"We are really free!" Everyone couldn't believe that freedom came so easily.

However, the first slave who took a step forward did not immediately run away. Instead, he turned around and gratefully bowed to Ye Xiu and Han Xiao, a gesture of respect for his own race. He said loudly, "Alien Star, Black Star, I will remember these two names."

The slaves left one after another, expressing their gratitude to Ye Xiu and Han Xiao and displaying various courtesies.

Ye Xiu and Han Xiao didn't feel much about this. Instead, the players following behind him felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. They straightened their backs as if they had accomplished a great deed.

Herlous felt the same way. He patted Ye Xiu and Han Xiao on the shoulders and praised them, "You did a great job. You are worthy of being the men I have my eyes on. I like you very much."

"Alright, then I'll leave Han Xiao to you. I hope that no matter whether you are rich or poor, old or sick, you will... "

Before Ye Xiu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Han Xiao with a dark face.

At this moment, many players were looking at the backs of Ye Xiu and Han Xiao, their eyes filled with kindness.

At this moment, they spontaneously felt a sense of identification with Ye Xiu and Han Xiao.

In order for players to like a character, in addition to strength, personal charm and a sense of identity are also needed.

This act of liberating slaves undoubtedly elevated their image again.

Roubao recorded this scene in its entirety.

Ye Xiu turned around and found that there were still a few slaves of the same race who remained there and did not leave.

"Why don't you leave?"

One of the female swordsmen mustered up the courage to speak up, "I was originally a mercenary myself, and I once served in a small mercenary group."

"It was just that we encountered danger during a mission and most of the members died. We were the only ones who escaped by chance, but we were captured by slave traders and imprisoned for over a year."

"Our team has long been destroyed, and now we have nowhere to go. I hope you can take me in and give me a job. You are my benefactor, and I am willing to serve you."

Ye Xiu's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked in detail, and finally decided to take in this heroic-looking female swordsman, Caroline.

Caroline is from the Dekli tribe, a small civilization in the Broken Star Ring. Their level of civilization is comparable to that of Sunil before his death, and they have certain space navigation capabilities.

A relatively martial civilization in the starry sea, with nothing special about it.

However, unlike ordinary humans who can only give birth to one offspring at a time, the Dekli people can give birth to multiple litters at a time, and therefore have been troubled by the problem of population explosion.

The Dekli people look similar to humans, but are shorter, with an average height of about 1.6 meters and light yellow skin.

Caroline is a C-level superpower, with a strength of about level seventy.

Although his strength is average and he is also a martial artist, he has filled the professional gap in the mercenary group to a certain extent and obtained a new super power system.

On the other side, Han Xiao also successfully subdued the three Volga brothers from the Taimihalentin tribe, and his face also looked extremely satisfied.

With awe and gratitude, Caroline accepted Ye Xiu's arrangement.

Although she regained her freedom, she still chose to continue her mercenary career.

Moreover, compared to going it alone, joining Ye Xiu's team would allow him to repay his gratitude and look after each other. After settling Caroline, the next step was to deal with Aroshia's problem.

Ye Xiu's eyes flickered slightly as he said, "Her name is Aroshia, and she's also a rescued slave. We'll be taking her in for the time being."

Kuang Dao asked in confusion, "Why did you stay? And why is she so silent?"

This question has been lingering for a long time.

Ever since Ye Xiu brought her out, Aroshia hasn't said a word.

Although her beauty amazed the players, everyone was even more confused - what was the secret behind this stunning girl?

"It's a memory loss." Ye Xiu tapped his temple and explained, "I was worried about her going alone, so I just took her with me. She has nowhere else to go anyway."

"It's a pity that such a beautiful girl has a brain disease." Tai Erzi smacked his lips and sighed.

"That's called seizing the opportunity." Roubao winked at Ye Xiu with a lewd look on his face that said "Brother, I understand."

Feng Yue and Jiang Yu Luo immediately glared at him.

Ye Xiu held his forehead and sighed, thinking that these people couldn't have simpler thoughts.

Kuang Dao repeatedly looked at Aroshia, finding her unusually calm. "Can she communicate?"

This remark woke Ye Xiu up. He remembered that she still had some language memory, so he quickly put a translator on her and asked, "Can you speak?"

Aroshia's eyelashes trembled slightly: "Yes."

His voice was as ethereal as a flowing spring, as crisp as raindrops falling from the eaves, making everyone's eardrums numb.

Players who were used to Roubao's hoarse voice suddenly felt healed.

"Really no memory at all?"

"Ah."

"Will you accompany me temporarily?"

"can."

"What items do you need?"

"random."

"Don't you plan to investigate your background?"

"It doesn't matter."

This Buddhist conversation made everyone gasp, as if they saw the holy light shining.

How can someone be so detached from amnesia? Maybe he needs medication!
Ye Xiu smiled calmly and said, "The members will take care of you for now."

Before he finished speaking, Aroshia suddenly moved closer to Han Xiao and sniffed him: "You have a familiar scent."

Ye Xiu's pupils shrank slightly, and he vaguely thought of something.

The other party's behavior was obviously related to an extremely powerful Beyond Grade A Mechanic, Jiguo.

"Hmm?" Han Xiao raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised. Is his charm value so high?

He suppressed his doubts and let everyone go - after all, she didn't need food or excretion, so she was very easy to feed.

Although it has the characteristics of an energy body, it is a flesh and blood body and is not afraid of starving to death.

……

Ye Xiu arrived at the top floor of the office building in a flying vehicle. Jenny looked solemn, "Are you sure it's Dark Star?"

Ye Xiu nodded and detailed what happened, saying, "Ember is DarkStar's new generation ace. This operation must have a major purpose. Although we are neutral, we dare to cause trouble in Dragon Tan and will pay the price."

Jenny adjusted her glasses, her brows furrowed slightly. "Dark Star and Dragon Tan have always kept their distance from each other, so there must be something fishy going on. But I'm too lazy to delve into it; I'll just hold them accountable."

"Thank goodness you recognized their identities, otherwise they would have been allowed to go unpunished. When Lady Ames returns, I will definitely settle this account."

Ye Xiu was secretly satisfied.

To deal with a powerful force, the best strategy is to kill someone with a borrowed knife and divert the trouble away.

If the plot hadn't arrived yet, he wouldn't have been able to shake Dark Star in the slightest. Unfortunately, the other party revealed a flaw. How could he miss this opportunity?

Ames had always had a violent temper, and she had been in a bad mood recently. Dark Star was simply asking for trouble.

It was a pity that she was away on a long journey at the moment. Otherwise, killing Huijin on the spot would be like severing an arm from Dark Star.

The Floating Dragon Society blocked the news, making Dark Star mistakenly believe that they were trying to cover up their mistake. A more fatal retribution would be in store later.

Taking advantage of star field giants like Long Tan is his biggest bargaining chip in dealing with the starry sea.

Exploring the gaps between the forces of power and stirring up the chess game—this has always been Ye Xiu's strong point.

Now, in the interstellar landscape that is thousands of times more complex, one only needs to flap the butterfly wings lightly, and with the help of multiple forces, the small waves will eventually become a world-destroying tsunami!
"What reward do you want for this meritorious service?" Jenny tapped the table.

"Apply for the qualification to call upon the Void Dragon Skeleton." Ye Xiu said directly.

Jenny tapped her temple with her fingertips: "The power of material dispatch is in Haier's hands. I will ask him to open a green channel for you."

Haier, which holds the power of logistics, has always been rigorous, but such reasonable requests will naturally be unimpeded.

A look of joy flashed in Ye Xiu's eyes - the Void Dragon material could be considered a strategic resource, and it was true that it was good to lean on a big tree for shade.

Whether it is resold for profit or used for self-development, it is priceless.

After Ye Xiu left, Jenny leaned back in her chair, her glasses gleaming coldly. "Ye Xiu from the alien star is definitely not someone willing to be inferior to others. He has many secrets. His subordinates are all undead warriors. If the scale continues to expand..."

She sighed and shook her head. "Fortunately, Ames's power over the world is so great that he can't escape the Five Finger Mountain."

Soon, she regained her composure and called Black Star.

……

In the dark alleys of Longtan Outer Ring Street, Huijin and his subordinates were hiding in the cracks between the buildings.

The patrol boat roared past but found no trace of them.

After confirming that they were out of the surveillance network, the task force's tense nerves relaxed a little.

The blunder made everyone's faces turn pale. Hui Jin suppressed his irritation and said, "Action immediately. Find the slave trader and evacuate Longtan as quickly as possible."

The mechanic called up the holographic projection: "Target locked - Slave trader Paige, stranded at Pier 3."

"Before he leaves the port!" A gleam of light flashed in Huijin's eyes, and he led the team to rush towards the port.

There is a mysterious feeling that the clue to the secret bead must be in Paiji's hands.

The number of spacecraft on the sparse berths has dropped by nearly half.

The reasons were: first, Ames' furious clearing of the area the day before scared off a large number of thugs; second, the Dragon Tan route was about to enter the Goron Cluster's military buffer zone, and the patrol fleet's guns would not recognize anyone.

Pecky slumped in the captain's chair, a cigar between his lips, tapping the console with his boot heels.

Although the Silver Spirits were taken away by Hollaide, the other slaves were sold back for their money, so it was all in vain.

When he heard that Hollade's lair had been bombed, he laughed so hard that his fat body shook.

"The profiteer deserves it!" Paige blew out a smoke ring and suddenly narrowed his triangular eyes: "If we can rescue the Silver Spirit..."

He immediately shook his head violently to dispel the delusion - that lightning iron fist still caused him phantom pain in his ribs.

"Ignite and depart!"

The thrusters spewed blue flames, and the spacecraft was about to break free from the magnetic anchor.

But at this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded: "Attention everyone! We will encounter a meteor storm in three minutes. No entry or exit allowed while the phase shield is fully activated!"

A scarlet warning zone suddenly appeared on the holographic star map, and a swarm of meteorites was pressing in like a swarm of locusts.

Paige cursed and turned off the engine - traveling alone through the meteor belt was tantamount to suicide, it would be better to hide in the dragon tank's shield.

Amidst the humming and trembling, the artificial sky was coated with brilliant gold.

The entire floating island transformed into a giant gilded egg, its plasma core running at overclocked speed, and energy tentacles like stellar flares leaping on the surface of the shield.

A torrent of meteorites crashed in, the largest of which was as big as a mountain.

Golden ripples spread out layer by layer in the void, and the shock waves were like invisible chisels, carving winding cracks on the curtain of the universe.
