Super Mechanic: God of Superpowers!

The assembly point is located at the other end of the Colton star system, a great distance from Gardon.

Ye Xiu controlled Ristar's mechanical body to land at the designated coordinates.

Numerous spaceships were already parked on the surface of this planet, and a large crowd of people gathered on the ground, all looking up at the newly arrived spacecraft.

As the hatch opened, Ye Xiu stepped out, pausing slightly as his gaze swept over the crowd.

There were two individuals in the arena whose energy fluctuations clearly reached the A-level standard, obviously the leaders of the two teams.

Although these two were strangers, their positions revealed that they each commanded different factions.

"An alien from Garden? I've heard rumors about him."

"I didn't expect this person to be here too."

"His undead army didn't come along?"

Amidst the rising and falling murmurs, a man dressed in the uniform of the Amethyst Civilization strode forward, the triangular star emblem on his chest gleaming faintly.

"Welcome to the operation, Mr. Alien. I am the commander-in-chief of this operation, Dortel, the external affairs officer of the Fourth Agency of the Secret Service."

"Nice to meet you," Ye Xiu nodded in response. "Mr. Leif isn't here?"

"Commander Leif's rank far exceeds the requirements of this operation," Dortl explained with a hint of seriousness. "However, I heard he's particularly interested in your participation."

Ye Xiu then realized that he was the only collaborator personally invited by that high-ranking executive of Zijing.

This special treatment stemmed from his appearance at the Conqueror's Gathering.

In Leif's eyes, he was already a member of the top interstellar circle.

"Let me introduce you to two other companions." Dortl led Ye Xiu toward the crowd.

"This is 'Seaquake' Jayne, a superpower user. Next to him is 'Hundred Turns' Gadley, a top firearms expert."

The two leaders extended their hands in a courtesy handshake.

Gadley's ultra-nano suit caught Ye Xiu's attention; its flowing metallic sheen suggested it could transform into a deadly weapon at any moment.

Through Pipijia's instant search, it was discovered that although these two individuals were relatively unknown, they were both private armed leaders who had emerged in recent years.

Such organizations are as numerous as hairs on a cow in the vast sea of ​​stars, and can be broadly divided into two categories:

They are either elite teams that take on private jobs, or private soldiers who serve a particular client.

Top-tier forces capable of controlling star sectors, like those in the realm of war, inevitably have calamity-level powerhouses behind them.

In comparison, the vision of these two leaders is clearly much smaller.

Their reputation for operating in remote star systems didn't even reach Ye Xiu's ears.

At that moment, Jay suddenly tilted his head and asked, "Why did you come alone?"

"Going it alone is more convenient." Ye Xiu waved his hand casually. This operation came suddenly, and he hadn't even considered mobilizing troops.

Jayne and Gadley exchanged a smug look.

As representatives of emerging organizations, this joint operation is not only an opportunity to make contact with the Purple Crystal Civilization, but also a stage for them to compete.

Whoever performs exceptionally well in this operation will secure a ticket to long-term cooperation.

Both of them broke out in a cold sweat when they first saw the name "Alien".

If that legendary legion commander were to appear with his directly subordinate Undying troops, they would have absolutely no chance of winning.

Only after confirming that the other party had come alone did my heart finally settle down.

After everyone finished exchanging brief pleasantries, Dortl pulled up the star map and began deployment:

"We are currently deploying defenses in the third sector of the Thousand Lights System. The target is expected to appear in the seventh sector. Based on trajectory calculations, the optimal interception point is..."

"Although the other side has 65 ships, two-thirds of them are disguised civilian goods."

He zoomed in on several red dots, "The real threat comes from no more than twenty frigates. As for personnel..."

The holographic image suddenly blurred into snowflakes.

"These stowaways bypassed the stargate security checkpoint and have not yet docked at any spaceport."

The superhumans watching exchanged knowing smiles. Faced with the intelligence network woven by the Amethyst Civilization, this ragtag fleet was as exposed as a school of naked fish.

With three Calamity-level powerhouses in command, the so-called numerical advantage is nothing but a joke.

"That's it?" Ye Xiu tapped the table lightly with his index finger.

I thought it would be a fierce battle, but it turned out to be just clearing out the small fry.

It seems that Zijing's true intention was to take this opportunity to examine emerging forces.

He glanced at Jayne and Gadley, who were secretly competing, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

Ding! A notification window with a gold border pops up on the panel.

[The new quest "The Purgation Order of Amethyst" has been activated]

Ye Xiu skipped the experience points section entirely; the reward of over a million innars had lost its appeal to him.

What's truly noteworthy is the 330 points of amethyst faction contribution points in the mission reward.

As a star cluster-level civilization, Zijing's favorability has always been difficult to increase.

If it weren't for the two legendary titles in the galaxy, he wouldn't even have the basic neutral reputation.

"Oh, right," Dortl suddenly brought up a holographic projection.

"The governor of the Thousand Lights Galaxy reported recently that one of their peak-level Calamity-level guardians has gone missing."

A figure enveloped in purple flames appeared on the screen. "Deep Purple Sorcerer Kernid, if any of you discover any clues during the operation..."

Ye Xiu's pupils contracted slightly.

The name was prominently displayed on the seventh page of the kill list, marked as a high-risk target.

He silently memorized the features of the image, his knuckles unconsciously tapping the particle dagger hidden in his sleeve.

……

The Thousand Lights Galaxy, Ninth Sector.

The combined fleet, disguised as an interstellar sightseeing tour, is making its way stealthily through deep space.

Inside the main ship's command center, Captain Bright was adjusting the data stream in front of the holographic panel, his dark red uniform gleaming with a metallic sheen under the blue light of the control panel.

"Navigation Log K-003015: Day 134 of exploration of the Colton Cluster, in the sixth round of intelligence scanning."

The civilization index of the Thousand Lights Galaxy, ecological samples from colony planets, and military deployment data have been encrypted and transmitted back. The next coordinate is set on the White Top Galaxy, with a focus on monitoring the energy fluctuations of the Amethyst civilization.

As soon as the voice recording ended, the system immediately executed the data erasure procedure, and all twenty-three backup transmission channels were simultaneously shut down.

Bright rubbed his sore eyes, when a sharp pain suddenly shot through the nerve interface implanted in the back of his neck.

Before he could bring up the diagnostic interface, the entire cabin suddenly fell into a blood-red alert, and the holographic star map was instantly torn apart by thirty-seven flashing red dots.

"Enemy attack! Bearings Z-7 to Z-23!" The tactical AI's electronic voice carried an unusual fluctuation. "The enemy is refusing to identify the signal. Expected contact countdown: 45 seconds!"

Bright shoved aside the hover chair and rushed to the tactical sand table, where the emergency communicator on his Adam's apple automatically activated.

"All units switch to battle formation; shield charging priority increased."

Before he finished speaking, countless purple spots of light suddenly appeared outside the porthole. Those were the energy glow of a heavy particle cannon.

The command channel erupted with shouts from the captains, but Bright remained unusually silent.

He stared at the strangely shaped group of black warships on the surveillance screen, his fingers tapping out a specific rhythm on the encrypted recording device.

When I saw half a face wearing mechanical goggles flash through the porthole of an enemy ship, cold sweat finally trickled down my spine.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, Ye Xiu was lounging in the driver's seat, munching on an energy bar, while in the holographic projection, Jayne's furious face was blasted into fireworks.

"How many times have I told you not to steal my tactical position! You... hey, that destroyer is one I've got my eye on!"

"Sorry, it was a slip of the hand." Ye Xiu lazily ended the communication, his fingertip drawing lightning patterns on the control panel.

As the bulkhead slid open to the sides, dark purple lightning coursed along his combat suit, and he transformed into a streak of light as he crashed into the vacuum.

The next second, the giant Thor mech lying across the battlefield made all the shipborne weapons look like children's toys.

The alarms on Bright's command ship collectively overloaded, and he watched helplessly as the hundred-meter-tall energy entity performed a death waltz amidst a hail of bullets.

When the mech's hand condensed an electromagnetic storm powerful enough to tear apart the asteroid belt, the old captain suddenly laughed out loud and stuffed his treasured military ID, which he had kept for thirty years, into the escape pod launcher.

"Tell the logistics department to remember to equip the next disguised fleet with two star destroyers." This was his last message to the organization.

On the edge of the battlefield, Gadley watched the energy readings soar on the tactical screen and slapped Jayne on the back:

"What's the point of arguing? This madman even mounted a space-folding cannon on his mech!"

Their small warships were like sardines circling a giant whale, only able to provide spotlights for Ye Xiu's killing spree, without even getting a chance to finish him off.

As the last enemy ship vaporized in the antimatter torrent, Ye Xiu's cheerful voice suddenly rang out on the public channel: "Finished work and want to grab some late-night snacks? My treat."

The battlefield clip he had just uploaded popped up on the holographic screen at just the right moment.

The background music is a cheerful interstellar children's song, and the special effects subtitles flash "Commemoration of the 108th Operation of the Cosmic Peace Guardians".

Jayne stared at his fleet in the video, which had been photoshopped into a pink Hello Kitty paint job, veins throbbing on his forehead: "You son of a bitch!"

The latest novel is first published here!

Before he could finish speaking, Gadley covered his mouth: "Don't give this bastard any new material!"

Neither of them noticed that from a piece of drifting warship wreckage, encrypted signals were being secretly transmitted into deep space.

"You did a great job on this mission," Dortl praised when he connected with the three of them.

As the rewards were deposited into everyone's accounts, Ye Xiu's task panel also displayed a notification that his favorability with the Purple Crystal Civilization had increased.

"As you've probably guessed, this operation is actually an onboarding assessment."

Dortl adjusted his glasses in the virtual projection, "We are screening capable civil society organizations to establish long-term partnerships."

Although you have different styles, you have both proven your worth.

Jayne and Gadley exchanged a surprised look.

I thought all the credit had been stolen by that alien, but I didn't expect to get a ticket to the event.

"In the past two years, the Broken Star Ring has become increasingly unstable, and the higher-ups have decided to establish a secret armed alliance."

Dortl lowered his voice, "While I can't reveal the specifics of the plan, I can tell you something."

This new organization needs to draw on the elite forces from various star systems to maintain the stability of the Colton Cluster.

A secret alliance? Ye Xiu's eyes lit up.

He certainly remembered the ubiquitous group organizations that emerged in version 3.0.

The top factions that players later scrambled to join were in their infancy at this time.

The soon-to-be-established "Zero Agency" of the Amethyst Civilization is a typical example.

This alliance, operating behind the scenes, recruits powerful individuals from various regions, providing them with resources and support while also shouldering the responsibility of fighting against hostile forces.

As the original storyline unfolded, Jayne and Gadley did indeed become his regular teammates later on.

"If the pay is reasonable, count me in," Ye Xiu said first.

He clearly remembered that members of Organization Zero had access to cutting-edge technology, not to mention the ability to leverage the influence of star cluster-level civilizations to enhance their own.

Having the opportunity to participate in the initial stage now is far better than the players in the previous life who got to enjoy the benefits of what was already there.

The two temporary teammates then realized what was happening and hurriedly expressed their support.

Dortl looked satisfied: "The specific benefits won't disappoint you. We're still in the selection phase; we'll discuss that after the official establishment."

As Ye Xiu listened, he weighed the pros and cons.

It was obvious that the Amethyst Civilization had made a pre-planned move; he had already heard about Krent's restless intentions.

These star cluster-level civilizations enjoy playing the trick of "proxy wars," letting their cooperating forces fight each other behind the scenes while they themselves hide behind the "Peace Treaty" and cheer each other on.

However, high risk often comes with high reward. Having gone through a period of cautious development, he now needs this kind of springboard.

Of course, in terms of raw power, he's still lacking. Unless he can recruit the Dragon Queen to his side someday, he'll ultimately remain just a high-level pawn in Amethyst's eyes.

"Secret war," Ye Xiu murmured, stroking his chin in deep thought.

This is indeed the main course of version 3.0, where all sorts of shady characters will come together to tear each other apart.

Fortunately, as long as that muscle-bound overlord in the field of warfare doesn't personally intervene, with his current resources, he can still play along with those simpletons.

Ye Xiu glanced at his two temporary teammates who were dreaming about the future, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

In this game of chess, it's still uncertain who will be the player and who will be the piece.

Swish.

Suddenly, the roar of engines came from the sky. Ye Xiu and the others stopped talking and looked up, only to find a streamlined single-person spaceship hovering on the surface of the planet.

"Is he just a passerby who happened to be collecting resources?" Jayne narrowed his eyes.

"Unsure," Gadley said, stroking his chin.

The hatch slid open silently, and a woman in white hung quietly in mid-air, her silver cat mask gleaming coldly.

She looked down at the crowd, her clothes swaying slightly in the air.

"State your name!"

Gadley demanded an explanation, sensing the surging energy fluctuations within the other person's body, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

This is the aura of a Calamity-level powerhouse!

Shana ignored the question, her gaze sweeping through the crowd before finally settling on Ye Xiu: "Alien?"

Ye Xiu narrowed his eyes and didn't reply, instinctively feeling that the other party had ill intentions.

"Silence won't help." Shana lightly tapped the air with her fingertips, and a metallic clang suddenly rang out. "These three Calamity-level beings are quite interesting."

Before the words were even finished, half of the spaceships in the docking area disintegrated with a deafening roar!

Metal fragments, accompanied by blue-white arcs of electricity, swept in like a torrential rain.

Before Jain's men could even scream, they were reduced to a bloody mist. Gadley roared and swung his right arm, instantly condensing nanoparticles into a multi-barreled pulse cannon, with dense light bullets tearing through the air.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amidst the explosion and flames, electromagnetic ripples spread around Shana.

She clenched her fingers, and the giant cannon in Gadley's hand suddenly twisted and deformed, scattering nanoparticles all over the ground.

"Dual control of metal and magnetic fields?" Ye Xiu's eyes lit up as he dodged and weaved across the flying metal fragments, his palm beams of energy constantly bombarding the shield.

"Break it for me!"

Suddenly, Jayne burst out of his clothes and roared, his bulging muscles trembling rapidly.

He slammed his palms into the ground, and spiderweb-like cracks spread rapidly, with visible shockwaves shooting straight into the sky!

Shana somersaulted in mid-air to avoid the attack, and a soft exclamation came from beneath her mask.

Ye Xiu took the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the thick chest hair on Jayne's chest dancing wildly in the strong wind, like a black banner.

Ding.

A bright red warning suddenly popped up on the panel:

[Triggered an A-level hidden quest: "The Hunting Game"!]

[Synopsis: A mysterious organization has placed you on their kill list; running away is pointless]

"There's definitely something fishy going on." Ye Xiu licked his lips.

The two catastrophic comrades formed a triangular formation without needing to communicate.

He directly restrained the magnetic field shield, while Jayne launched a close-range attack, and Gadley's long-range sniper beam occasionally lit up on the distant horizon.

For the first time, Shana showed signs of anxiety. A storm of metal surged between her fingers, yet she was unable to break through the three's coordinated encirclement. (End of Chapter)
