Record the name of this shipbuilding company. Han Xiao left the hangar and returned to his room. He remotely activated the mechanical troops at the Shattered Star Ring headquarters, boarded a spaceship, and took the cross-starfield stargate route to the Old Star River.

Since acquiring the Quantum Unreachable Transmission Channel and the Lord's Avatar, he had deployed mechanical troops in many bases, ready for the Lord's descent at any time, in case of emergencies.

Manison was the most powerful Beyond Grade A force in the Old Star River. The Black Star Army didn't have much influence there. Now that the Mechanical Country's relationship with him had dropped to freezing point, he had to be careful when visiting other people's territory. A boy had to know how to protect himself.

Just after remotely dispatching the mechanical troops, Nero arrived with the strange enchanted weapon he had mentioned.

"Godfather, this is what I was talking about."

Han Xiao took the unidentified object from Nero and examined it carefully.

It was a cold weapon-style spear, broken in the middle, leaving only half of the spearhead. It was cyan-black in color and had a texture like bronze. Streaks of misty golden light flowed across the surface, as if magic was surging.

The moment he held the broken spear, a prompt popped up on the interface.

…[Remaining 16 Enchantments (Fold/Expand)]

[Note: This weapon is in a damaged state, and the equipment requirements, basic attributes, and enchantment effects have been greatly reduced.]

"This…" Han Xiao was shocked.

In the damaged state, the equipment requirements could still reach Level 230. If it was complete, wouldn't it be a weapon only Beyond Grade As could use?

The enchantments were all high-level rune spells, especially the [Godslayer] enchantment. When attacking enemies above Level 200, even normal attack damage could be increased by 2.4 times!

What kind of concept was that?

Wdnmd! Zhazong!

The more enchantments there were, the higher the load. This weapon could withstand so many high-level enchantments, which meant that the material was extremely tough and must have used very rare raw materials.

How could the Kundas have this kind of thing?

"Tell me about how you got this weapon," Han Xiao nodded.

"Alright."

Nero responded and explained.

"It was a very routine boarding battle. My teammates and I broke into the ship's cabin and exchanged fire with the enemy's main force. I went straight for the enemy officer. This guy's armor was shattered by me. I remembered your teachings and didn't forget to follow up with a killing blow, but the ground suddenly exploded, and we all fell down."

"Below was a dark warehouse. I saw this weapon in a transparent vacuum storage box. The officer quickly opened the storage box, picked up the weapon, and charged at me. I wanted to dodge, but halfway there, he suddenly exploded. That's how I got this weapon."

Exploded? Well, that guy's level must have been too low to meet the requirements of the Godslayer. He couldn't withstand the magic contained in the weapon and exploded… Han Xiao speculated secretly.

The more powerful a Super Power weapon was, the more powerful an individual was needed to control it. If one didn't meet the equipment's usage requirements, most of the time, one just couldn't exert the equipment's effects, but a small number of weapons were risky. If one couldn't withstand it, one would explode. This was common with enchanted weapons…

The products of mages had always only cared about killing and not burying. What after-sales service? He had never heard of it. Where could one find someone as conscientious as him… Han Xiao shook his head and slandered in his heart.

"Godslayer… it's probably for Beyond Grade As. Since it's a named weapon, maybe there's a record of it online?"

Han Xiao logged into the Empire's database and searched for the name [Godslayer]. A large amount of information immediately popped up.

He clicked on the top file and took a look, and his heart stirred.

The information showed that the Godslayer was a weapon crafted by the Beyond Grade A dwarf mage, "Artisan God" Thorne Uranium Core. He was a master of magic weapon forging who died in the 79th year of the Star Sea Calendar. He had crafted countless magical equipment in his lifetime and made outstanding contributions to the study of magical forging throughout the universe. He was a figure that magic students would definitely see in their textbooks during forging and enchanting classes.

The file stated that the Godslayer was a Beyond Grade A weapon Thorne had custom-made for a friend and was only one component of the [Godslayer] set.

The [Godslayer] set was Thorne's legacy, ranking third on the "Master Thorne: Top 100 Legendary Works" list. A single piece of equipment was only orange Epic grade, but the entire set reached the golden grade of a Universal Treasure!

Historically, the [Godslayer] set had only one owner, Thorne's friend, a Beyond Grade A martial artist nicknamed "Holy Spear."

However, Holy Spear disappeared in the 103rd year of the Star Sea Calendar, and the set disappeared with him. The reason for his disappearance was not discovered, and it was an unsolved case.

At this moment, Phillip popped up.

"Master, I have detected that this weapon has weak multi-dimensional energy residue. Do you want to perform a detailed examination?"

Han Xiao hummed and took out various detectors, scanning the Godslayer.

The results were quickly released, showing the multi-dimensional energy components and imprints on the weapon. The proportion of negative energy was the highest, and it was most obvious at the fracture. Obviously, this weapon was cut off by someone using negative energy, which was commonly found in secondary dimensions.

"So, this guy called Holy Spear probably died in a secondary dimension…" Han Xiao's heart stirred. That was very reasonable.

Exploring secondary dimensions was full of unknown dangers. Martial artists who couldn't split their bodies, teleport, or create robots could only venture into secondary dimensions with their bodies. One wrong step, and they would capsize. They weren't as carefree as mages and mechanics.

According to historical statistics, the two most common ways for Beyond Grade As to die were to be killed by other Beyond Grade As or to die in a secondary dimension and become a missing person.

Putting things together, Han Xiao had a guess.

These weapons drifted in the secondary dimension and accidentally encountered wormholes or space-time rifts, falling back into the main universe and landing in the Glimmering World, where they were discovered by the Kundas.

He didn't know when this had happened. It seemed that the Kundas hadn't been able to study the mysteries of magic from this thing and probably didn't pay much attention to it.

Thinking of this, Han Xiao looked at Nero helplessly.

You can even pick this up?

It seems I'm still too soft on you!

For you, conscience is indeed unnecessary!

"Godfather, what did you find?"

Seeing Han Xiao looking at him without saying a word, Nero asked expectantly.

"Cough…" Han Xiao coughed twice and said with a serious face, "According to my appraisal, this is a very dangerous enchanted weapon. Your strength is not enough to withstand the load. Forcing its use will be dangerous… so it will stay with me temporarily and be kept by me."

"No way." Nero's face fell, and he looked suspicious. "Why didn't I feel the load when I was holding it? Are you trying to fool me?"

"Holding it is one thing, using it is another. Would I joke with you? What do you take me for? Would I lie to you?"

Han Xiao was righteous.

Nero wanted to say something, but Han Xiao directly covered his mouth, turned him around, and pushed him out of the room.

Bang!

Before Nero could react, the door closed behind him.

Han Xiao's shouting could be heard through the door.

"If you have nothing to do, just wander around. If you find anything good again, remember to bring it over for me to appraise."

"Dream on, I'm not coming!"

Nero looked disgruntled and ran away in a huff, like a child whose red envelope had been confiscated by his parents.

In the room, Han Xiao made a safe and locked the Godslayer inside.

He would only be interested if he could get the entire [Godslayer] set, but a single piece wasn't of much use to him. The probability of collecting the entire set was too low, and he didn't dare to count on it.

However, for someone who made a living from close combat, the Godslayer was a treasure.

The Level 230 usage restriction was roughly equivalent to the level of a peak Grade A+ Disaster Grade. He did have such experts under him. Hardaway was one of them.

However, Hardaway was just an Esper. Although he was physically strong, he didn't have any extra bonuses for using weapons. He was only suitable for taking beatings, not for hitting people. He was completely a pure meat shield, unlike himself, who was both tanky and had output, and was also very handsome.

In Han Xiao's opinion, Rothere was more suitable to use the Godslayer than Hardaway. This was equipment custom-made by Thorne for martial artists, and only martial artists could unleash its greatest power.

Although the current Rothere hadn't reached his peak, if he were to obtain this weapon, his assassination ability would immediately increase by one or two levels and wouldn't be too far from his peak!

Moreover, the mission to deal with the mastermind might just require Rothere, the master assassin.

…

The matter of the Kundas came to an end. After settling all the refugees in the Black Star Territory, the Crimson Empire didn't stop and immediately resumed the exploration project.

The war had delayed them for several months, but their progress hadn't fallen behind, and the Empire had gained a lot.

Taking over the Kundas' territory was equivalent to directly obtaining the stargate passages of several star systems in the middle of the Glimmering World, saving them the time of slowly building stargates.

Also, the star data accumulated in the Kunda database reduced the scope of exploration. In this battle, the Empire supported the war with war, and instead greatly increased the exploration progress.

Without obstacles, the second phase of exploration work returned to normal.

In the explored universe, the Empire didn't publicly publicize this battle, but in private, it began to send out a large number of intelligence personnel to quietly collect clues and find the mastermind.

Isu gave a prophecy, pointing out a certain area that the stowaways who released the spacecraft would pass through, but this area was in a more distant unexplored star cluster. Without a stargate passage, the Empire could only send spacecraft to warp there, and they didn't know if they would be able to catch up.

Fortunately, Han Xiao had made two preparations. After waiting for a period of time, the remote mechanical troops finally arrived at the Old Star River and headed for the factory revealed by the "Bold Explorer."
