Chapter 128, First Mission

Just then, a notification appeared on the panel in front of Ye Xiu's eyes:

[The faction has been automatically generated—[Alien Mercenary Group]!]

[Faction management feature is now enabled!]

A new feature, [Faction Management], has appeared on the template.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu was not surprised at all, as he already knew what was going on.

The faction is a very common one. The reason he didn't trigger it on Aquamarine Star was mainly because he was affiliated with a dark web organization.

Therefore, this feature has remained dormant.

Now that he has left the dark web and created his own faction, the panel is naturally responding.

The interface for 【Faction Management】is quite complex, with numerous options that can be overwhelming.

Ye Xiu can do all the functions that the normal faction can use on players.

For example, things like faction affinity, faction relationships, and faction quests.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xiu turned to check the employment applications on Huangquan Ancient Star. For the sake of the special secondary profession of [Chosen One], he decided to accept the commission issued by it first.

There are several missions related to the Ancient Star of the Underworld, but unsurprisingly, they all require credits, with a minimum of 120 credits.

"120 points?" Ye Xiu's eyes flickered slightly.

Normally, by simply completing a few combat-related mercenary missions, one can accumulate 120 credit points.

However, due to time constraints, Ye Xiu had his clone perform the lowest-level internal tasks within the hub, which required at least 1 credit point.

Although the credit points are very low, the difficulty is also positively correlated, and it can be completed very quickly.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of the clone, the credit score rose rapidly, finally reaching 120 points in about two days.

Daily job tasks are generally the lowest level tasks, and once your credit points reach a certain level, doing these tasks will no longer increase your credit points.

This grading system is very reasonable, making it easier for employers to understand the strength of mercenary groups more intuitively.

To avoid situations where someone appears to be a high-achiever with 1000 credit points but is actually just a clueless domestic helper.

They spent money meant for war, only to find people who can only cook braised pork trotters.

And 120 credit points is exactly the first standard point.

Once you reach 120 points, you can be considered a legitimate mercenary group and will be able to receive more mission requests.

Open the mercenary interface and find the application list for Huangquan Ancient Star directly.

There are more than a dozen job tasks listed, but they are all roughly the same type.

The situation on Huangquan Ancient Star was even more chaotic than on Hailan Star, with the seven major forces constantly attacking and fighting each other.

Countless warships clashed in space, and battles between superhumans raged across the Earth's surface.

With the recent ascension of the third prince of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, the domestic situation is unstable, and several neighboring forces have immediately launched attacks in an attempt to seize resource-rich cities.

The Heavenly Mandate Dynasty also issued several missions to defend the city.

The dangers of these tasks vary, with the most dangerous ones so dangerous that no one dared to apply for them for a time.

The simplest task only requires a credit score of 120 points to meet the acceptance criteria.

Ye Xiu could only choose the easiest task at the moment. He had just submitted a team task application and quickly received a reply showing that he had passed the test.

[Mercenary Mission - Defend Lingwu City!]

[Mission Introduction: The Heavenly Mandate Dynasty is under siege by the powerful force [Underworld]. You have accepted this job, and your main responsibility is to protect Lingwu City.]

[Mission Requirement: Lingwu City has not fallen!]

[Mission Rewards: 42 experience points, 1500 Inar points, +29 credit points, +2 regional reputation.]

[Mission failure condition: Lingwu City is captured!]

[Mission start time: 9 days later.]

--------

For safety reasons, Ye Xiu did not bring Hella and Aurora with him on this mission.

After all, he didn't know much about the Yellow Springs Ancient Star, and he was always quite cautious about this kind of mission.

The hub is patrolled by guards, and generally speaking, few superhumans choose to commit crimes here, so its safety is well guaranteed.

However, Ye Xiu also left behind two clones, so that he could use them to send his main consciousness down at any time in case of an emergency.

……

Time flew by, and Ye Xiu successfully arrived at Huangquan Ancient Star by taking a direct flight, the same Happy Flight he had taken earlier.

From a cosmic perspective, this is a pale yellow planet, filled with an extremely dense yellow gas.

As soon as the spacecraft entered the atmosphere, it shook violently, and the Earth's surface rapidly expanded in view.

The spaceship followed the route instructions, gliding across the sky.

Looking out the porthole, Ye Xiu saw a city standing beside a great river.

This is Lingwu City, one of the border cities of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty.

As the spaceship lowered its drop pod, Ye Xiu immediately felt a sense of weightlessness, but then his feet suddenly trembled, and the drop pod began to descend smoothly.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Crunch—"

The hatch opened, revealing a vast city outside.

As soon as Ye Xiu stepped out of the cabin, he encountered a group of soldiers in white combat uniforms.

Huangquan Ancient Star is a planet where technology and magic coexist, and supernatural abilities are also mixed in, while the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty mainly leans towards technology.

"Ta-da!"

Footsteps approached, and a middle-aged man dressed far beyond that of an ordinary soldier walked over.

This man was clearly an officer of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, exuding the pure aura of a soldier, his face as hard as stone, as if everyone owed him something...

"I am Fisher, the city guard captain of Lingwu City. I have received your information. Alien, you are the 798th mercenary to arrive."

"At the same time, on behalf of the Heavenly Mandate Dynasty, I also welcome your alien mercenary group."

"The war hasn't fully begun yet. Please come with me. I'll take you to the rest area specifically for mercenaries. I'll also assign you missions there."

"Okay." Ye Xiu nodded and led a large group of his clones to follow Fisher away.

Throughout the journey, Fisher appeared to be very taciturn.

Not only him, but the other soldiers also rarely spoke, their faces tense, and the air was filled with a tense and grim atmosphere.

Led by Fisher, Ye Xiu and his group arrived at the area reserved for mercenaries.

Inside the hall, a large number of mercenaries were gathered together, talking to each other, creating a very noisy scene.

Before the war begins, mercenaries naturally need to gather intelligence.

Fisher stepped to the center and said in a deep voice, "According to secret intelligence, the army of the Underworld may launch an attack on Lingwu City at any time. The commander of the enemy is Shou Mo, a powerful superhuman with superpowers. With the help of his beast army, he can control hundreds of thousands of beasts at once."

Fisher paused, then continued, "You are all mercenaries hired on missions, so you should understand that to receive your reward, you must give it your all; only then will you have any hope of overcoming this difficulty..."

After a typical opening, Fisher got down to business and began assigning tasks.
