Chapter 611

After dozens of layers of buffs were cast on Ames, her fury was finally dampened . She snorted and deactivated her Esper ability .

Heber did not mind it; it was not the first time he had confronted Ames . He turned and nodded at Zoel .

“So, I shall leave . I look forward to the result of your consideration . ” Zoel got the gesture, gave his contact details to Ames, smiled, and was about to turn around and walk out of the room .

Looking at the envoy’s retreating back, Han Xiao was suddenly hesitant .  Should I plant a mark on Zoel? It seems quite rewarding .

He did not forget that this was a private meeting before the party officially started . When the party started the next day, only then would Heber introduce Zoel to all the guests . That would be the time that things started to escalate .

The Crimson Empire would not snatch the territory themselves because once they did, the Federation of Light would act, and the conflict would grow into a much bigger issue . Since this was not yet the stage to have such a large-scale conflict, the Crimson Empire was trying to bond with the Shattered Star Ring’s organizations, drawing more chess pieces to their side of the universe chessboard .

Throwing an Observer’s Mark would allow him to see what the Crimson Empire was doing backstage and how many organizations joined the Crimson Empire . This was very precious intelligence .

However, although Observer’s Mark left close to zero trails and even Ames could not notice it, there were two more Beyond Grade As present, so there was a chance that he might get noticed . Plus, the Crimson Empire’s people might have special techniques to prevent things like that .

Hmm, I’ll give it a try . Even if I get noticed, it’s not too serious a problem . He wants us to be on his side, and we’re not enemies .

A tiny tint of gray light flashed through his eyes, and an Observer’s Mark was planted on Zoel .

Ames and Heber did not notice at all .

Neither did Zoel . He left the room, and the gate covered his figure .

This time, Han Xiao suddenly realized that someone was looking at him . He turned around and saw that Austin was staring right at him .

He noticed? Han Xiao’s heart skipped a beat .

Everyone’s abilities were different . Ames and Heber could not notice, but Austin was a Mage, so he was sensitive to all kinds of energy . Despite the ripples of Void Energy being miniscule, they did not escape his senses .

However, Austin did not say anything . He just gave Han Xiao a friendly smile and looked elsewhere .

Han Xiao did not get what he meant . Anyway, not being exposed was a good thing .

“If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving . ” Ames was annoyed by the sight of Heber and did not want to stay there .

“Wait . ” This time, Heber spoke .

“What else?” Ames frowned .

“I heard you’ve been expanding your forces recently . We can work together,” Heber slowly said .

“Work together?” Ames gave a faint smile . “Do you think we have a very good relationship?”

“I can forget about that nonsense when you fought your way onto Planet Heber,” Heber said .

“Then keep remembering . ” Ames could not be bothered to argue . She stood up from the throne, turned away, and left .

Han Xiao took along Hila and Aurora and followed her out of the room .

Austin laughed loudly . “Hahaha, Heber, she just dislikes you more and more . ”

“Doesn’t matter . ” Heber was not bothered .

“I thought you were going to make the marriage proposal again . ”

“Forget it, she probably won’t agree this time too . ” Heber shook his head .

“Seriously, you both have very tough personalities . If you want to get her, you have to tone it down,” Austin said jokingly . His personality was very casual, and he had a good relationship with both of them . He knew the history of Heber chasing Ames .

“I won’t change for any woman . ” Heber waved his hands .

He was not too determined about Ames . In the entire Shattered Star Ring, Heber thought only Ames who was Beyond Grade A like him could match him, only she was strong enough to be his partner . It had no element of love or emotion .

If he could get Ames, his organization would have two Beyond Grade As, which would be a tremendous increase .

Heber disdained deception and did not bother wasting time; he had always been straight forward and did not avoid speaking of his real goal of chasing Ames .

Austin still remembered back then when Heber first proposed to Ames and how furious Ames had been . He wanted to laugh every time he thought of it .

When Han Xiao and the others reached the gate of the palace, Carroll just happened to be on the way in, and they met .

“You people again . ”

Carroll did not have any intention of taunting this time and did not glue his eyes to Ames, unlike last time . His expression was calm as if Han Xiao and the others were just passersby .

Ames glanced at him . Although she was unhappy, she could not do anything in Tyrant’s territory, so she ignored Carroll .

Just as they were about to pass each other by, Han Xiao suddenly pressed onto Carroll’s shoulder and grabbed him tightly like an iron claw .

Puzzled, Carroll turned around and asked, “What are you doing?”

“I remember that you said before I’m just your replacement?” Han Xiao squinted . “Since you call yourself my senior, give me some guidance then . ”

Carroll’s expression changed . He had thought that the previous taunting incident was over, but Han Xiao’s sudden action after a few days was unexpected to him .

Ames stopped, also surprised .

“What do you mean? Do you want to fight here? This is Planet Heber!” Carroll said in a slightly threatening manner .

“Don’t worry, I just want to spar with you . I want to see how strong the traitor is . ” Han Xiao chuckled . “The Tyrant’s subordinate wouldn’t not dare accept a challenge, right?”

“I got it . This is Ames’ orders, isn’t it?” Carroll felt that he had guessed correctly . It had to be because Ames was unhappy about the outcome of what had happened earlier, so she had ordered Black Star to challenge him . If it was just a spar between officers, Heber would not say anything .

Hehe, is she this confident in this new officer of hers?

Carroll’s face turned cold and said, “Okay, I accept your challenge . Hope you don’t lose too fast . ”

Bloodshed Land was his stage; he could use countless machines . Even if Black Star’s name had been loud recently, he did not step back .

Carroll had heard about Ames’ new officer . He also wanted to gauge Han Xiao’s full strength . He wanted to see what kind of person Ames had found to replace him .

Furthermore, his position was sensitive . He now represented the Tyrant . Since Ames had ordered Black Star to challenge him, he could not back down . Even though Heber could protect him, considering the Tyrant’s personality, things would not go well for him if he was afraid of the challenge .

Bloodshed Land despised cowards the most . Someone that was not a battle maniac had no chance of obtaining a high position under the Tyrant .

Han Xiao curled his lips and suddenly said, “We’re both Mechanics, just sparring isn’t fun . How about a bet?”

“On what?”

“Let’s bet… five sets of machinery blueprints, what do you say? The loser has to give whatever blueprint the winner requests . ” Han Xiao smiled wickedly .

Betting blueprints… Carroll frowned heavily . Blueprints were the lifeline of a Mechanic, so Mechanics betting blueprints on was not uncommon .

“Okay . ” Carroll nodded .

Han Xiao’s eyes sparkled .

There were many factors that had made him suddenly challenge Carroll .

Ames could not battle, but he could . Being high profile to a certain extent and showcasing his abilities was beneficial to increasing his position in this circle . Plus, it could help Ames relieve some anger .

If the Tyrant interfered in a spar between officers, it would be utterly embarrassing .

Secondly, he had been peeking on Carroll for the past few days and roughly knew his strength . Knowing the enemy guaranteed him an edge in the battle . Furthermore, he had noticed that Carroll had a few rather good machines, so he had proposed a bet to win some machinery blueprints .

He would never fight a battle without benefits .

The third and the most important reason was that a new faction mission had appeared on his interface .
