Chapter 690 Version Update Rewards

The size of the Black Star Army startled the players. The video continued, the scene changed, and finally began to discuss the content that players were most curious about: the specific deeds of the Black Star Army in the past ten years.

"In the 695th year of the Star Sea calendar, the Crimson Empire expanded, codenamed the Crimson Tide. Affected by this, the Shattered Star Ring was turbulent. The Klent Empire instigated the War Realm to invade the Purple Crystal Civilization, and the Secret War broke out. The Black Star Army joined Purple Crystal and fought for it. The war has lasted for ten years and has not ended to this day. During this period, the Black Star Army fought north and south, experiencing hundreds of battles of all sizes, clashing with the War Realm time and time again, and earning a great reputation..."

Loserin introduced the background of the Secret War, and everyone was shocked.

Crimson Tide? Isn't that the version name? It turned out to really refer to the Crimson Empire's expansion. At the end of Version 2.0, Black Star vaguely revealed information. It turned out that it was indeed obscure information for the next version.

The Black Star Army was actually involved in the war of a Star Cluster-level civilization. In this way, the main storyline of Version 3.0 should be related to the Secret War... Many people secretly speculated.

Following this line of thought, the expansion of the Black Star Army must be related to participating in the war, and it should have made a fortune from the war.

However, they only guessed half of it. The following content immediately ignited everyone's passion.

"...In this war, the leader Black Star demonstrated his Super-A Grade potential, crushing all the enemy's high-level combat power, being invincible, and being the most promising powerhouse to become the next Super-A Grade in the Shattered Star Ring in decades. At the same time, under his leadership, the Black Star Army has also greatly expanded, carrying the momentum of a Super-A Grade seed, and has been wooed by Purple Crystal and dozens of Star System-level civilizations, eventually forming its current scale."

As the leader of the Faction, Loserin introduced Han Xiao in great detail, explaining his terrifying achievements and the important impact on the development of the Black Star Army.

Many players understood that the meaning of the video was that 90% of the reason why the Black Star Army could develop to where it is today was because of Black Star. If Han Xiao had not shown his Super-A Grade potential, the Black Star Army would not have been able to stand out even if it participated in the war.

It was Black Star who made the Army so big in ten years!

The players suddenly realized and instantly extracted the key point.

Super-A Grade!

After two versions, they already knew that Black Star was very strong, but they didn't expect that Black Star could still break their inherent impressions and give them a new surprise!

The Super-A Grade is the supreme powerhouse standing at the top of the Star Sea. Black Star is a character who appeared in Version 1.0, and the plot runs through three versions. Now, he has the qualifications to compete for the supreme powerhouse, and he is probably also the main character in Version 3.0.

Han Xiao was already the "own NPC" in the hearts of the Chinese players, and their sense of identity exploded. Seeing that their Faction's boss was even more vigorous than taking Viagra, the players suddenly became excited and couldn't close their mouths with joy.

Before the version update, countless players were already looking forward to what the Black Star Army would become in Version 3.0. The current result made them very satisfied, and even felt unexpectedly surprised — Black Star is as reliable as ever when we are not around, and manages the Black Star Army so well.

The Commander is still awesome!

With such a strong leader, the Faction has a higher development ceiling, and the players' enthusiasm for the Black Star Army has greatly increased.

The video continued, Loserin then talked about the specific deeds, what kind of battles the Black Star Army had experienced in the past ten years, and what achievements it had made, interspersed with Han Xiao's personal deeds...countless times fighting against many enemies alone, scaring the enemies out of their wits, resolving assassinations time and time again, fighting against the Hetero-Gods, destroying DarkStar, and so on.

The course comprehensively introduced the history of the Black Star Army. After the video ended, many players looked like they had not had enough, because the Black Star series of videos with Roubao (Meatbun) laid the foundation. This video gave them the feeling of chasing a drama. They chased the ten-year plot of the Black Star Army in one go, and had a sense of epic changes in the world. It was so comfortable to watch, as if they were venting thousands of miles.

"This is the background introduction of the new version, right?"

"Why do I feel more like a cutscene..."

"Black Star is awesome!"

"As expected of a growing Faction, the future is bright, hahaha!"

The players present were still excited and talked a lot.

The changes in the Black Star Army really surprised them. After the shock, it became a pleasant surprise.

Since it was a good change, the players were relieved. The more awesome the Black Star Army was, the happier they would be. This was their Faction of Fate that they had witnessed for three whole versions.

"I didn't expect so many things to happen when we were not around." Kuang Dao (Mad Blade) tasted it and couldn't help but sigh.

Roubao (Meatbun) was heartbroken. "So many news materials, what a pity, how many videos can I make."

The video sorted out the history of the Black Star Army, and the players had a clearer understanding of the Faction they were in. Han Xiao has been committed to enhancing the players' sense of belonging with the deeds of the Faction, and the effect is remarkable. A Faction with a history has a unique culture. The sense of belonging has always been one of the other important factors that affect players besides interests.

Through the deeds of these ten years, all players have a basic understanding of the situation in Version 3.0. It can be said that under Han Xiao's guidance, players are adapting to Version 3.0 at the fastest speed, which is also what Han Xiao wants to see.

The second stage of the [Ten Years] mission was completed. Han Xiao immediately released the third stage mission and continued to remotely guide the players.

All Army players received a new guiding mission.

[Third Stage]

[Mission Introduction: You have learned about the situation in the Shattered Star Ring. The Black Star Army is participating in the Secret War. As a member of the Army, you should make a choice.]

[Mission Requirements: Accept the Secret War mission through the internal program.]

[Reward: The Secret War storyline is opened, Black Star Army Favorability +800]

"The main storyline can be triggered at the beginning. It seems to be the same as Version 2.0."

The Calamity of the Germination version also entered the main storyline as soon as it went online. Many players did not doubt it and selected the option to apply to participate in the Secret War through the Phillip subprogram.

In his previous life, after the players entered Version 3.0, they spent a period of exploration before participating in the Secret War main storyline one after another under the guidance of their respective Factions. Now, Han Xiao directly threw the main storyline in front of the players, saving a lot of time and allowing the players to participate in the war in advance, which is more beneficial to him.

The original method of triggering the Secret War main storyline was to join the War Realm or the Zero Organisation. However, Han Xiao knew this early on, so he spent ten years developing the Black Star Army into an important member of the Zero Organisation, connecting with the main storyline, binding the Faction, and allowing players to obtain the Secret War main storyline without joining other Factions, as long as they stayed in the Black Star Army!

Han Xiao's achievements during the version update are gradually showing.

In the next moment, the players' panels popped up a prompt, triggering the main storyline mission that Han Xiao had obtained ten years ago.

[S-Grade Faction War Mission [Secret War - Zero Organisation]!]

[Mission Introduction: The Klent Empire is invading the territory of the Purple Crystal Civilization. You have chosen to stand on the side of the Purple Crystal Civilization.]

[Mission Requirements: Follow the instructions and repel all enemies invading the territory of the Colton Star Cluster.]

[After the mission is completed, different rewards will be given according to the mission evaluation.]

S-Grade Main Storyline Mission!

The players' eyes lit up. The main storylines of the previous two versions were all A-Grade missions. This was the first time they had accepted an S-Grade mission.

Han Xiao obtained this main storyline ten years earlier than the players. Although the S-Grade mission would only show the evaluation after settlement, he didn't need to look at it to know that he had already obtained the highest evaluation.

"This main storyline mission has a suffix. Hmm, does that mean we can also do this mission in the Klent Faction?"

Roubao (Meatbun) was quick-witted, inferred from one instance, and guessed the truth.

In the original plot of his previous life, players could choose to join either the Klent or the Purple Crystal. Both Factions had their own attractions. The Colton Star Cluster where the Purple Crystal was located was considered the birthplace of the players. As the defending side, it had geographical advantages, while the overlord of the War Realm was a Super-A Grade, taking the initiative, which was also very attractive to players.

In the original Version 2.0 storyline, the Black Star Army did not exist. Godora and DarkStar were the forces that guided players into the universe, each recruiting a portion of players and embarking on different paths.

Among them, some of the players recruited by DarkStar seamlessly connected to the Klent Faction in Version 3.0 due to the relationship between Klent and DarkStar. Coupled with the appeal of the Overlord, many players chose to join the War Realm. The Zero Organisation was relatively less attractive because it was fighting passively.

However, Han Xiao had already changed the direction of the plot. He laid a good foundation in Version 2.0, squeezed out Godora and DarkStar, and abducted almost all the Aquamarine Star players.

Now, the Black Star Army is the most important member of the Zero Organisation, which means that the players are born on the side of Purple Crystal!

A child would make a choice, I want all!

Wanting to join Klent was equivalent to all the costs invested in the Black Star Army in the previous two versions going down the drain. The cost for players to change Factions was extremely high. Although players did not like being forced, with the sense of belonging from the previous two versions as the foundation, Han Xiao's fait accompli would not cause a rebellious mentality in most players.

The Super-A Grade Overlord was indeed a bit attractive, but just now, the players learned through the ten-year history that Black Star also had Super-A Grade potential, which caused the War Realm to lose its core competitiveness and the Faction's attraction to plummet. At least most people would not do so even if they realized that they could change Factions because it was not worth it.

Therefore, Klent and the War Realm could no longer obtain a large number of players like in his previous life!

The butterfly effect caused by Han Xiao from Version 2.0 has continued to this day.

But then again, players are strange, and it's hard to say that there will be some troublemakers who want to join the Traitor Association. Han Xiao had already prepared countermeasures.

He had considered all the possible accidents in the past ten years.

While the players were excitedly discussing the main storyline mission, Han Xiao stopped pretending to look at the scenery, returned to the interior of the satellite fortress, and pondered secretly.

"The first step is completed, the next step is to fertilize..."
