Simultaneous Transmigration: Merging with the True Self of All Heavens

Chapter 117 Morning Star

"Mission complete, item acquired," Han Xiao said in the communication.

"So fast?" Melos was quite surprised.

Just as Han Xiao was about to boast a little, he suddenly stopped, looked around at his surroundings, and a bold idea popped into his head.

"Wait a minute." He smiled. "Don't rush. There's no one here anyway, we have plenty of time."

Since we're already here, why not just move this place out of here?

The system-on-a-chip at the base?

Great stuff, can be modified and used, take it with you!

The base's defense equipment?

Good stuff, can be disassembled and used as spare parts, take it with you!

The base's alloy walls?

Good stuff, can be made into armor, take it!

A mechanic of Han Xiao's caliber can demolish structures incredibly fast.

With all sorts of machinery at work, after a short while of clanging and banging, he had dismantled everything that could be taken down from the entire base, filling more than a dozen supply crates.

The scavenger base was now completely empty. The door was knocked open—

No, there's no gate anymore. The gate has been removed, the floorboards have been pried off, and the base's mainframe and energy core have long been taken down.

Today, this once vast site is completely barren, with not a blade of grass growing on it, leaving only a bare, unfinished building.

Looking at his masterpiece, Han Xiao smiled with pride and satisfaction. He loaded more than a dozen full supply boxes into the spaceship and drove away.

The spaceship sped along, passing through the inter-cluster teleportation stargate, and arrived in the Ryan system of the Colton Cluster.

Han Xiao's target is currently operating within this star system.

Once civilization reaches a certain stage, it will no longer lack material enjoyment, and spiritual needs will naturally follow.

Therefore, the entertainment industry in interstellar space is quite developed, with a wide variety of cultural industries such as songs, dramas, and literature, making the lives of various civilizations more colorful.

Han Xiao's target is a very popular interstellar star who is currently invited by the ruling civilization of the Ryan system, the New Ferran Alliance, to come here for a tour.

He is a very talented singer. Due to the power of media, his influence is not limited by physical distance, and he has a large number of fans in several star clusters within the Shattered Star Ring region.

This performance was to celebrate the traditional festival of the reunification of the New Ferran Union, and this singer was the most popular of all the members invited to perform.

The performance venue is a resort spaceship called Wine and Celebration, and those who can attend the celebration are all important figures in the New Ferran Alliance.

Given the size of the Xuanji Mercenary Group, they are not qualified to participate in this event unless they bring Dragon Throne Ames over.

However, Han Xiao seemed confident about this, as if he already had a solution.

On the day of the celebration.

At this moment, the Fine Wine and Celebration spaceship is docked at the spaceport of the New Ferran Alliance's main star, surrounded by countless escort ships.

This is a giant spaceship, which looks like a relatively flat hexagon.

The pier is closed to the public today to accommodate all celebration participants in order to celebrate Unity Day.

At this moment, a huge crowd had gathered in the airport hall. They were all citizens of the New Ferran Alliance who had come to watch the boarding ceremony.

-

All the performers and important figures will board the ship through a passageway inside the airport.

This is a ceremony that marks the start of the Unity Day celebrations and is also the only opportunity for ordinary citizens to get close to the scene, so there are a lot of people here, making it extremely crowded.

At the edge of the crowd were rows of soldiers maintaining order, preventing anyone from rushing onto the boarding avenue and disrupting the ceremony.

Li Yuan and Han Xiao stood in the crowd, letting the throngs of people around them surge around them, but they remained firmly rooted to the spot and did not move.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the crowd in the distance, and one by one, important figures, accompanied by their guards, finally began to board the ship.

A deafening cheer erupted from the crowd. These important figures, each with a kind smile on their face, waved to the crowd as they walked forward.

One important figure after another walked by, and shouts followed in waves.

Suddenly, an unprecedented, deafening roar came from afar, surging in like a tidal wave.

In the distance, a group of assistants and guards escorted a person with a light veil covering their face as they slowly approached.

"Morning Star! Morning Star!" The shouts from the crowd were like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing.

Clearly, this singer named Morning Star has a large number of fans.

Just as this person was about to walk away along the passage, for some reason, he suddenly stopped, slowly turned his head, and his gaze pierced through the crowd, accurately locking onto Han Xiao's figure.

The next moment, she actually walked directly towards him.

The crowd erupted in excitement, surging forward in an attempt to touch their idol.

The soldiers, sweating profusely, desperately held back the crowd, fearing a security incident, and urged Morning Star to leave quickly.

Just then, Morning Star spoke up: "It's alright."

His voice was very gentle and extremely pleasant to listen to, as pure as water, and those who heard it felt calmed down.

Almost instantly, the commotion in the crowd miraculously stopped, and a path was made to let him into the crowd.

Chen Xing slowly walked up to Han Xiao and, under the gaze of countless spectators, smiled lightly and said, "Hello, I hope to have the honor of inviting you to watch my performance live."

"hiss-

'

Throughout the hall, countless people gasped in surprise, casting glances filled with disbelief, envy, and jealousy.

"Who is this guy?"

Why did Morningstar choose him?

"Damn it, why wasn't it me!"

"Aaaaaaah!"

Han Xiao ignored the surrounding noises and calmly nodded: "Okay."

"Then please follow me." Morning Star smiled and turned around.

Soon, his assistant contacted the organizers to communicate with him.

New Ferran officials quickly identified Li Yuan and Han Xiao as mercenaries they had worked with before, and that they had backgrounds with Longtan, making them trustworthy individuals.

Although it was somewhat inappropriate to allow mercenaries into the venue, the request was granted out of consideration for the two individuals' clean appearance and for Morning Star's sake.

Therefore, amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, Li Yuan and Han Xiao walked through the passage and boarded the celebration spaceship.

All of this was exactly what Han Xiao had anticipated.

The reason he was invited by Morning Star was because of the strange-looking statue in his pocket.

Morning Star has a special sensitivity to the undercurrents of the mind contained within the statue. As long as it is within a certain range, it will definitely attract his attention. That is why Han Xiao was sure that Morning Star would invite him to the ship for this reason.

Li Yuan and Han Xiao, who were not originally qualified to enter, were arranged in the Morning Star team's VIP room.

Chenxing didn't come to find Han Xiao right away, but went to prepare for her own program first.

Before this, he instructed his assistant that if Han Xiao asked why he had been invited, he should tell him to meet him after the celebration.

However, the assistant waited and waited, but Han Xiao never showed any curiosity. Since entering the room, he had been resting with his eyes closed, as if he didn't care at all why he had been invited.

Li Yuan, who came with him, was the same.

After waiting for quite a while without Han Xiao asking any questions, the assistant had to speak first: "Your Excellency, Chenxing wishes to speak with you personally after the celebration. Please be patient and enjoy the performance."

"Hmm." Han Xiao squeezed out a sound from his throat without moving his head.

After some time, a giant open-air stage appeared in the very center of the spaceship.

Above, the universe is dotted with stars; below, dazzling and colorful lights illuminate the scene. A grand performance thus begins in the cosmos.

At the same time, countless citizens of New Ferran, though unable to attend in person, watched the celebrations via broadcast.

After one performance after another, the grand finale arrived, and Chenxing made a dazzling appearance amidst great anticipation.

On the vast stage, all the light was focused on Morning Star, and only the place where he stood was bright, while the rest of the area was completely dark.

However, just by standing there, he exuded a special aura, as if he alone filled such a huge stage.

A clear and pure voice drifted out from beneath the veil of the morning star, like heavenly music.

A tremor originating from the soul rushed down the spines of the audience and into their brains, leaving them mesmerized and unable to extricate themselves.

"The power of thought in this song—" Li Yuan's eyes flashed.

Han Xiao smiled and said, "That's why his singing is so captivating."

Soon, the music ended, but countless audience members remained captivated, lingering in its beauty.

Morning Star lowered his head slightly and stepped back to leave the stage. Only after his figure had completely disappeared did a wave of applause surge up.

Not long after, the door to the VIP room opened, and Chen Xing, who had just finished her performance, walked in with an apologetic smile: "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I hope you were satisfied with my performance."

"I have to say, she does sing a tiny bit better than me." Han Xiao nodded, making a gesture with his fingertips.

Chenxing smiled, removed her veil, and didn't seem to care about Han Xiao's joke: "I know you're curious as to why I invited you to the celebration."

"Hmm, I'm curious." Han Xiao read the words in a flat, expressionless voice.

"Here's the thing, my side job is actually as a collector. I really enjoy collecting unusual items, and it seems like you have something I'm looking for."

As Morning Star spoke, she took out a statue.

Apart from the different shapes, the material, size, and other aspects of this statue are exactly the same as the one in Han Xiao's hand.

Seeing this, Han Xiao took out the statue from his pocket, his tone quite surprised: "Wow, what a coincidence!"

Morning Star glanced at the statue in his hand, nodded and said, "This was originally a set of collectibles, a total of four pieces. Two are here, and the other two are still out there."

"Once two of them get close, the location of the other statues can be sensed within a certain range."

"I just heard that you are interstellar mercenaries, so I would like to ask you to help me find the last two statues. The reward is negotiable."

"Sure, are there any specific requirements?" Han Xiao's lips curled slightly.

"Of course, the sooner the better." Chenxing said, handing the statue in her hand to Han Xiao, "Take this first, and find the remaining two as soon as possible."

Han Xiao put away the statue and nodded: "Our Xuanji Mercenary Group has accepted the mission. After we find everything, where should we look for you?"

Morning Star smiled and said, "My schedule is very full; I frequently travel between different star systems."

"Anyway, you won't be able to find them all in a short time. I'll give you my assistant's contact number later. Just let her know when you've found them all."

Li Yuan remained silent throughout, simply sitting quietly to the side, observing Chen Xing's condition, a knowing glint occasionally flashing in his eyes.

After the celebration, he and Han Xiao returned to the rented spaceship.

"You've been invited to the celebration?" Melos greeted them, looking surprised.

Han Xiao's expression was calm, and his tone was nonchalant: "Yes, and we also negotiated a job worth 100,000 inars."

"Wow, that's quite a lot!" Melos's face immediately lit up with surprise.

Faced with the huge economic deficit of the Sunil tribe, he was very proactive as long as there were tasks to do and money to be made.

"It's nothing," Han Xiao smiled and steered the spaceship toward the target location.

One of the statues fell onto a barren planet and was buried deep underground.

The normal way to find it is to gather intelligence from various sources and conduct a thorough search.

But Han Xiao didn't need to. He knew exactly where the location was, so he could just go and get it directly, saving time, effort, and worry.

As for the last statue, it crashed on a planet called Azure Star.

Civilization exists on this planet, but it is still in the indigenous stage and has not yet connected with interstellar life.

Han Xiao descended to this planet alone and, in just one night, successfully obtained the last statue.

However, after collecting all the statues, he did not immediately notify Morningstar. Instead, he flew his spaceship to a nearby colony planet of a galaxy-level civilization and purchased some special items.

A few days later, the Xuanji Mercenary Group's spaceship returned to the Ryan system.

Following the Unity Day celebrations, Morningstar began a tour in the New Ferran League and has not yet left.

When he received Han Xiao's call and heard Han Xiao say that the mission was complete and all four statues had been found, he was immediately startled.

Only a few days have passed, and the other two missing statues have already been found?!

He searched for so long and only happened to find a statue in Han Xiao's hand.

So Han Xiao solved the task so quickly after accepting it?

At this time, Morningstar is touring a colony of a member civilization of the New Ferran Alliance.

After the Xuanji Mercenary Group's spaceship docked, Li Yuan and Han Xiao went directly to the top-class suite of a luxury hotel, where they met Chen Xing.

"Haha, you guys really gave me a huge surprise! Your efficiency is amazing!"

Looking at the four statues lined up on the table in front of him, Chenxing was overjoyed. After inspecting them, he immediately paid double the fee.
