Chapter 458 Attention from a Distant Star Field (2/2)
”Hmm?”
A sound appeared in the empty cockpit.
Countless streams of light appeared out of nowhere and gathered into a human-shaped cluster of light. It reached out its hand and touched the accessory that was flickering with weak light.
”Your energy level finally recovered to the level that's locatable by the detector… So, you were thrown to the Shattered Star Ring by the wormhole… I will look for you very soon. Wait for me.”
In the blink of an eye, this Black Light Prowler turned into a stream of light and disappeared. It only needed microseconds to warm up before jumping. It was so swift that it was almost impossible to catch.

After Feidin left with the Black Star Mercenary Group, the impact that it made on the entertainment industry stirred up quite a controversy.
The news that 'Chen Xing' had given up his singing career when it was soaring shocked many. Although the reporters and the media did not get any information from Feidin, they started making guesses. Stories with headlines like 'The Real Reason…' spread very quickly, stunning the Chen Xing fans and sparking heated discussions.
However, the entertainment news and the mercenary industry were two different worlds, so Han Xiao did not care. He only paid a little attention when this actually made him more famous.
After completing Chen Xing's mission, he did not waste time and went on to the next location to trigger one of the missions.
In a remote Star System in Colton Star Cluster, the Godoran Civilization had set up research space stations to scout unpopulated planets, researching different planets, life forms, and environments. There were many Observers like Kerlodd in such space stations.
In 075 Godora Research Space Station, upon receiving permit, the spaceship entered the railroad of the space station and parked at the internal dock.
Alighting from the spaceship, Han Xiao and the others looked around. This space station was built to have a very typical Godoran theme.
A few Godora Observers waited at the dock, and one of them asked, ”Black Star Mercenary Group, may I know why you are here?”
”Just happened to pass by, and my spaceship needs to refuel, so I'm here to rest for some time. We will pay the corresponding fees, or we can do some missions,” Han Xiao said. ”Do you have anything here that needs to be dealt with?”
The leader hesitated and shook his head. ”There is no extra work here. Since your spaceship needs to be repaired, you can use our shipyard.”
Mercenaries were semi-neutral and slightly leaned toward the lawful side. They had an access permit by default and could park in many strongholds of Galactic Civilizations. They have reported their arrival before entering the space station, and as the Black Star Mercenary Group had a good name and had fought against DarkStar some time ago, the space station allowed Han Xiao and his friends to park.
If their negative reputation was too high or even were wanted, not only would they not be able to enter many places, they would also be chased by the police once their location was exposed.
After talking for a while, the Godoran Observer led the way and guided them out of the dock into the space station lounge. According to the management regulations, as soon as their spaceship was refueled, they would have to leave.
Of course, Han Xiao did not go there just to refuel. This Research Space Station had a mission that he wanted to trigger. It was easy to get a high rating and simple to do.
The mission's setting was that a research ship had gone missing and lost contact in a nearby desolate planet. The space station sent another team to look for them, but that team lost contact as well. Hence, the space station reported the situation to the Godoran Directorate General of Intelligence and Investigation and waited for them to send more Observers to investigate the situation. As this was an internal job, the Godoran Observer did not talk about it earlier. They did not want to request help from mercenaries.
However, the players could trigger this mission through the internal personnel in the space station. This was not a hidden mission, so the players just had to pay close attention to the clues, and they would be able to find that person.
That person was Han Xiao's target.
