Chapter 1282 - Entering the Black Marke (2/2)
“Don’t ask me. I’m just doing a mission. As for who I am, you should recognize this emblem, right?”
This person turned around and showed a symbol on his clothes. Everyone looked at it and shivered.
There was almost no one in the universe who did not recognize this pattern.
“You’re from the Black Star Army‽”
“To be precise, I’m one of the Army’s Immortals. You can call me Crispy Chicken Wings.” This person grinned. He was indeed a player.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Why have the infamous Immortals suddenly come to help? We clearly had no contact with the Black Star Army at all!
“Wait till I get rid of these people. Stay behind me obediently.”
At this moment, the pursuers suddenly opened fire, and densely packed bullets rained down on them. The bullets were extremely fast, almost forming a line. As soon as Crispy Chicken Wings spoke, a blue shield popped out, protecting the paralyzed vehicles of the black market.
The next second, the Pugilist flames on Crispy Chicken Wings gathered in the palms of his hands, forming a red energy wave.
Boom!
A blazing red beam of light pulsed outward like a whip, hitting all the vehicles.
The next moment, these vehicles turned into fireworks in the sky and the people within were killed instantly, scaring the crowd away.
To Grade B players, this was a common occurrence. There was no difficulty involved.
Crispy Chicken Wings clapped his hands and chuckled. “Problem solved.”
Seeing this, the Lizardman finally had the strength to get up. He snatched the bomb back from the burly man’s hands and turned it off, glaring at him before walking toward Crispy Chicken Wings. “You saved my life. How should I thank you?”
“You don’t have to thank me. From now on, I’m your boss.”
The Lizardman was stunned for a moment before he exclaimed in surprise, “Are you recruiting me to join the Black Star Army?”
“In your dreams. Do you think you can enter the army just because you want to?” Crispy Chicken Wing did not stand on ceremony and rolled his eyes. “What I mean is, I will temporarily take over your black market business. This is an order from the higher-ups. This is the certificate from your black market organization.”
As he spoke, he took out his communicator and displayed a document.
Everyone browsed through it, only feeling shock and surprise.
This was a permit that was recognized by the black market organization. The document stated that the three Universal Civilizations had begun to infiltrate the black market on a large scale, and many of the black market channels had already been uprooted. Therefore, in order to maintain the stability of the galactic black market, the black market organization would send some people to temporarily take over the black market and requested for them to cooperate as much as possible.
Usually, black market organizations would not interfere with ordinary black market operators, but this time, they issued a rare notice.
The people who took over the black markets were all members of the Beyond Grade A organizations, and the players of the Black Star Army were among them.
While everyone was still processing, Crispy Chicken Wings opened the interface and looked at his mission list.

Army Transfer Order: Takeover of the Black Market (1)
Mission Introduction: Due to the sanctions of the three Universal Civilizations, the Beyond Grade A Association plans to further control the galactic black market.

This mission is part of a series of related missions. The final reward depends on the mission rating.
Current Mission Status: Completed
_____________________
This was a mission issued by the Black Star Army not long ago, and many players had accepted it. They split up and went to different planets to take over the local black market. Because the players rarely had the chance to be independent, they found it interesting and refreshing.
Furthermore, compared to exploring the Flickering World, taking over and integrating the black market of a planet had a lot more problems to consider. The mission environment was more complicated, which was more challenging to the players.
This was just a corner of the black market, and the same thing happened on many planets in the various Star Fields.
…
“The players have already entered the black market. The situation is not bad…”
In the Black Star Palace office, Han Xiao looked at the star map, nodding as he observed the movements of the players.
The Galactic Black Market was currently the focus of the battle between the association and the three Universal Civilizations. The three Universal Civilizations did not personally take part in the battle, and the people they sent to infiltrate the black market were not direct descendants but subordinates of subsidiary organizations. They had already clashed with the many people sent by the Beyond Grade A Association, both sides suffering from casualties.
Among them, the progress of the army was the smoothest. The players were as useful as ever, unlike the other organizations, which could not be as extravagant as the Black Star Army.
Han Xiao gave this mission to the players. It served two purposes, to provide fertilizer for the players and to allow the players to enter the frontlines of the battle and maintain their interest.
Scattering them out on different planets to manage their own black market businesses was akin to letting them be birds flying in the sky, free as the wind. He was also curious about how these players would react.
At this moment, his communicator vibrated. An officer had sent a message.
“Commander, someone is here to visit you. She doesn’t have an appointment, but she claims to be an old acquaintance of yours.”
Hearing this, Han Xiao raised his brows.
“Someone I know? How close? What’s their name?”
“She said her name is Rossellin.”
