Interstellar migration is a massive undertaking.

All the surrendered Subterranean Mutants, along with their Whispering Stone base stations, were packaged and sent onto the conglomerate's transport ship. Without these Whispering Stone, even if Planet Sunil still had scattered small mineral veins, it would no longer be able to form a large-scale Psionic Undercurrent.

In other words, the Calamity has vanished, and the planet has become habitable for the Sunil people.

The Black Star Army's ability to mobilize resources amazed Sunil's high command, who became even more respectful. Upon the arrival of the transport convoy, they did not delay any longer and submitted an application to the Mercenary Alliance to settle the employment.

Han Xiao received a notification that funds had been deposited into his account, the control panel reacted, and all tasks related to this event were completed.

[Operation Sunil Rescue - Large-Scale Employment] brought in a substantial reward, slightly offsetting the expenses of mobilizing the transport team. Successfully completing this large-scale mercenary mission independently added a brilliant achievement to the Black Star Army's record, significantly increasing their credit score. The Mercenary Alliance further improved its evaluation of the Black Star Army.

[Overall Assessment: The renowned super-large legion, the Dragon Calm Field Force, primarily operates in the Garton Star System. It is the iconic mercenary organization of the Garton Star System, commanding hundreds of thousands of mercenaries who possess immortality. Their average strength is Grade C. The Black Star Army has extensive connections and substantial resources in the mercenary world, with legion bases on Planet Golden Gate, Planet Aquamarine, Planet Sunil. To date, it maintains an extremely high completion rate for mercenary missions, earning widespread praise and trustworthiness.]

[Legion Commander Black Star is nicknamed "The Undying Body" and "DarkStar Destroyer," maintains good relations with some civilizations, and is also the holder of the Goddora Civilization's Gaol Golden Statue Medal.]

An improved rating signifies an enhanced status; the Black Star Army gains new prestige, and the happiest people are none other than the players, who experience a sense of satisfaction akin to nurturing a character.

In addition to the formal employment, Sunil's Grade A main quest [Eliminate the Subterranean Mutants] was also completed, and the player made a fortune, smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum.

Han Xiao did not pursue an extremely high mission rating this time, and received a "Good" rating. According to the mission conditions, annihilating the clan should have earned the highest rating, but the mission reward was not as good as the subsequent benefits of relocating the Subterranean Mutants, so he chose the more profitable option.

Han Xiao wasn't short of these mission rewards; after all, the experience players gained from this mission would be converted into spending power, so he just went ahead and made a killing.

However, the Grade A mission gave him an unexpected bonus: the NPC template generated a new instance—[Subterranean Mutants Annihilation Battle].

"A new dungeon? That's not bad."

Han Xiao's eyes flashed. He had accumulated quite a few dungeons, but due to the players' low levels, he hadn't released them all. However, as the players gradually leveled up, they would come in handy sooner or later, so he wouldn't have to worry about them in the future.

For the next few days, Han Xiao stayed on Planet Sunil to oversee the transport team's delivery of the Subterranean Mutants.

After the hiring was completed, he ended the legion's conscription.

Some players remain on Planet Sunil. Although the employment contract has ended, Sunil Star is in dire need of rebuilding and there is still much profit to be made. With the Number Three Base serving as a transit point and also as the faction headquarters, players can use Planet Sunil's missions to train other players, which will generate further profits from the NPC resource area.

With Sunil's predicament resolved and no longer needing to risk their lives outside, some of Sherinde's Sunil Sunil wanted to return home and quit being mercenaries. So they asked Han Xiao to let them leave, each feeling somewhat guilty and sorry for Black Star.

Han Xiao had anticipated this situation and prepared a compromise: allowing Sherinde and the others to stay on Planet Sunil without having to go on missions, but they could train mercenaries at the Number Three Base.

The Sunil warriors all accepted the plan. To be fair, they also wanted to do something for Black Star to repay their kindness. Staying in their hometown to train new recruits was safe and the work was easy, so Sherinde and the others no longer mentioned leaving.

Finally, the last transport convoy set sail, and Han Xiao and the others also departed in their spaceship. On the ground, countless Sunil people looked up and bid farewell to the Black Star Army.

An uninhabited planet suitable for Subterranean Mutants to live on.

The Subterranean Mutants have all been relocated here, and Han Xiao followed the transport team to check on their condition.

Because all the Subterranean Mutants were integrated and were no longer separated by region as before, their civilization development was indirectly promoted. Various tribes mixed together and lived together, skipping a stage and directly achieving racial unification.

From the perspective of civilizational development, this was a start with a terrifyingly leading advantage.

Because the Germinal Tribe was the "messenger" of Black Star, spreading the knowledge that Han Xiao had told them to all the alien species, the Germinal Tribe naturally became the leader of billions of Subterranean Mutants.

In the minds of the Subterranean Mutants of the Germinal Tribe, Black Star was almost a god who spread the gospel and saved them all. He was a savior-like figure. The Germinal Tribe's respect for Han Xiao also spread to the hearts of all the Subterranean Mutants. After settling down, the Subterranean Mutants regarded Han Xiao as an object of totem worship.

Due to the unique nature of the Psychic Network, culture spreads at an incredible speed, and each alien species gives itself a name.

When Han Xiao arrived, the Germinal Tribe was leading all the Subterranean Mutants in building a huge nest. His visit was warmly welcomed by the Subterranean Mutants, and the Germinal Tribe leader came out to greet him.

"This is our new home." The leader of the Germinal Tribe excitedly showed off their new nest, like a child recommending a beloved item to an adult.

"Very good, from now on this planet will be your habitat." Han Xiao nodded and smiled, "You are now a new civilization, and should no longer be called Subterranean Mutants."

"Are you going to give us a new name?" the Germinal Tribe chief asked happily.

"No, that's your own right."

After a brief exchange, Han Xiao left the planet without interfering further in the development of the Subterranean Mutants. Since it was still in the nascent stage of civilization, he planned to let the Subterranean Mutants evolve on its own and did not want to force it to grow too quickly.

As the spaceship left the planet, a new message suddenly popped up on the panel.

[You have gained new Legend Points]

[Garden Legend Points (Garton Star System): Race Savior - You saved a large species from extinction and helped them become a new civilization. This is a noble act, and your deeds will be celebrated Garton Star System. Many powers will be more friendly towards you.]

Han Xiao was pleasantly surprised; he hadn't expected such an unexpected gain.

There was more than one message.

[Black Spirit Race faction favorability +10000]

[Current relationship: [worship]]

"The Black Spirit Race?"

Han Xiao was taken aback, then suddenly realized that the Subterranean Mutants had given their race a formal name: the Black Spirit Race... How come that sounded like it was related to his nickname?

He was unaware of his place in the hearts of the Subterranean Mutants, and named himself after "Black Star," calling himself the Black Spirit Race, using this as the name of his race.

Han Xiao became interested.

"Interesting. I wonder what kind of civilization these Subterranean Mutants will eventually develop into."

With a smile, Han Xiao piloted the Blacklight Stealth and disappeared into the horizon.

The players were informed of the migration results, and seeing the Subterranean Mutants begin a new life, many players breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but feel proud of the Black Star Army.

On the forum, the Sunil incident became the hottest topic of conversation. Players enjoyed the feeling of changing the fate of a race and becoming saviors. Their sense of belonging and identification with the faction gradually increased. This event also became a deep memory for players, adding to the building of their nostalgia.

On Planet Sunil, the Sunil people are also very grateful to the Black Star Army, and people come to visit the Number Three Base every day.

Sherinde and a group of Sunil "retired" mercenaries officially established a training camp at the Number Three Base, recruiting disciples and Sunil people.

The training camp is a continuous source of recruits for the legion. Although it is only just beginning, the prospects of Planet Sunil are promising. As long as the Sunil people live and multiply normally, there will always be batches of people who yearn for interstellar travel and sign up to become mercenaries.

It can be said that as the Sunil people develop, the benefits of the Number Three Base will continue to increase, and the development of the two is positively correlated.

After Sunil's trip, the Black Star Army's development in the Garton Star System got on track and entered a virtuous cycle, with the role of hundreds of thousands of players gradually becoming apparent and playing a significant role.

The remaining players who stayed on Planet Aquamarine also completed the assessment at Number Two Base in batches.

Finally, except for new players, all players on Planet Aquamarine entered interstellar space and became members of the Black Star Army, bringing the number of mercenaries to over a million.

Such a massive scale is rare even among large mercenary groups.

The Black Star Army steadily expanded its operations in the Garton Star System, becoming an infrastructure construction maniac by adding new bases. In addition to attempting to monopolize the employment market in the Garton Star System, Han Xiao also began to extend his reach to nearby star systems. His connections provided tremendous assistance to the Legion, and its rapid rise astonished Goddora.

Han Xiao occasionally undertakes challenging mercenary missions himself, or, based on his familiarity with the storyline, finds some profitable planets and turns them into new NPC resource sites. Every so often, he launches a large-scale mercenary mission as the main storyline to cultivate player cohesion.

The Black Star Army's power steadily increased. With no external factors hindering its development, the risks were negligible, and everything proceeded according to Han Xiao's plan.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
