After he got the map, he studied it, and decided to re-explore several sites that had been explored west of the Poison Dragon Mountains that might have mines, and establish several mining farms depending on the situation, even if the reserves were not large, as long as the cost of establishing a mine was not high and the maintenance was not difficult, it could be mined, and there was money to be made anyway.

This doesn't need him to do it himself, the recruited scientist apprentices can just come in handy, equip them with some subordinates and a giant god platform, and they can set off in two teams.

As for Fang Ning himself, he opened the built-in forum in the game, searched for the local forum, searched for the New Aotranta Base Alliance on the port, and entered the invitation code that he did not want to give, and he could enter this small forum that was only accessible to players who had established a base on the planet New Atranta and established a foothold.

On the planet New Atranta, communication between players has been greatly affected by the unknown magnetic field that is ubiquitous on the planet.

Even the high-power radar sensors of large warships have been greatly suppressed, and the planet's atmosphere is completely impenetrable, and short-distance communication between players is no problem, but if the distance is a little longer, it will not be able to communicate, just like the Fangning base and the Thunder Tiger base cannot communicate through radar.

At this time, the communication between players within the planet can only be solved through the built-in forum of the game, although it is inconvenient to have delays, but there is no way.

Unlike other forums, this forum is very deserted, most players are busy developing bases, and this thing is not as convenient as the game's internal communication, and even the speech is in the form of posting, so Fang Ning now sees the latest post from seven hours ago, titled: Large gneiss mine for sale.

Gneiss Fang Ning knows that it is a common conventional ore, which is mainly used in the external armor of warships to improve the resistance of warships to interference, and is a general-purpose material that is widely used.

Fang Ning clicked into the post, and the first thing he saw was a row of videos, the title of which was a comprehensive introduction to the location and surrounding conditions of this mineral deposit, the most important thing being reserves and mining, and of course, claiming ownership.

The mine owner wants to sell this large gneiss mine, which includes the already built mining farm, a small living quarters, and supporting defense facilities, for a total price of 800 million.

There are many people asking about the specific situation under the post, and some are already asking the price in private chats, and it won't take long to be sold.

This is a common occurrence and there are many information about the sale of mines in the posts below, some of which are still for sale, and some of which have been marked as sold out.

This is also a unique situation on this planet, some player teams such as studios specialize in wandering around the planet, discovering mines, detecting reserves, and then stopping and starting construction, and when the basic mining station and supporting facilities are built, it can be auctioned, generally according to the cost price of the mining station plus about 20% of the estimated value of the exploration reserves, directly packaged and sold, making a wave of quick money.

Although it only earns 20% of the exploration reserves, it saves the time of mining, and the takeover player buys the later stage with 20% of the total reserve price, which will definitely lose money in the early stage, but it will definitely make money in the future, which is a win-win situation.

It's a pity that this place is a bit far away from Fang Ning's current location, and the price of 800 million is a bit expensive for him, otherwise he wouldn't mind buying it.

Just as he was thinking this, the post suddenly showed that the mine had been sold.

"So fast?"

The sought-after ones surprised him, and a bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind, but it quickly disappeared, and he didn't have so much time and not so many people.

There are only 2,000 ground troops available for command at the end of the day, and although they can compare with tens of thousands of ordinary ground offensive troops, after all, there are too few men to distinguish between them.

A mining base, even if most of the machines are automated, still requires a large number of manpower to operate, with a total number of no less than 1,000 people, and the more adults the mine, the more adults.

The main reason is the ubiquitous toxins on this planet, the machinery is constantly corroded by toxins on the planet, not to mention the service life is greatly reduced, and there will be problems from time to time, which requires a lot of manual maintenance and military units guarding the base.

Therefore, it is impossible for Fang Ning to open mines all over the world, so he can only live in one place and find a few mines with high enough value not far away.

The value of this Becerian stone is large enough that it can be mined as long as the reserves reach the standard of small size or above.

Then he browsed some previous posts on the forum, most of which were posts about different players in different areas of the planet, which was quite valuable for him as a newcomer.

As he browsed with interest, he was awakened by a series of alarms, which he had set up in the game to alert him if something important was to do so.

Quickly closing the built-in forum, Thunderhammer strode in and said loudly:

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Temporary Outpost No. 1 has been attacked and destroyed."

"Hmm!"

Fang Ning stood up in surprise and asked:

"Makeshift Outpost No. 1 destroyed? What about the garrison? What about the Titan Soldiers? And what about escort ships? ”

asked three times in a row, expressing that he was indeed extremely surprised in his heart, the guards of this specification would even destroy the outpost, what was it that attacked the outpost?

Thunderhammer didn't say anything, just raised his hand, and there was an electronic wrist chakra on his wrist, which he tapped a few times, and a light curtain popped open, showing the picture of Temporary Outpost No. 1.

This should be the surveillance picture from the escort ship over the No. 1 temporary outpost, at first the outpost was quite calm, the outpost was patrolling and guarding, and the mechanical facilities were all normal, but after more than a minute, a bone spear with a thick arm suddenly flew out of the forest in the distance, this bone spear was extremely powerful, and the spear tip was against a circle of white spiked sonic boom clouds and disappeared, and a blow shot the elite gene warrior who was put on a sentry tower through it, and the huge thrust directly knocked it away.

Then, an overwhelming bone spear shot out, blasting the steel gate of the outpost as thick as 15 centimeters, and the outpost was alarmed.

At this time, Fang Ning noticed that in the lush jungle outside the outpost, layers of waves were surging, and large shrubs and ferns were pushed away, and countless humanoid muscular men with a height of about two meters, five or six meters tall, naked and topless like primitive people, with purple-blue skin and many hideous patterns painted on them, were killing towards the outpost like a tide.

Then, the troops guarding the outpost launched a counterattack under the command of the captain, the weapons of the lost army were amazingly powerful, even the plastic steel alloy as thick as one meter could easily penetrate it, and a salvo swept down a group of natives attacking the outpost, and at the same time, the guns of the escort ships in the sky began to charge, and a series of bombardments cut off the rear row of these alien primitives, and it took almost half an hour to defeat all the alien primitives.

The enemy was routed, but the outpost was not held and was completely destroyed by the strong of the natives.

However, Fang Ning's focus is not here, but these alien natives.

Judging from the graphics, these humanoids will never be recruited by other players, and there is a 99% chance that they will be indigenous creatures of the planet.

This is what surprised Fang Ning and was interested, because, so far, it seems that no player has ever heard that there are traces of indigenous civilizations on the planet New Atranta, and he should be the first.... Well, it's possible that other players found out but didn't say it, and this one might be pretty big.

Regardless of these, now Fang Ning is interested in this unknown indigenous civilization, because when he saw these alien natives, the universe in his palm reacted, and this alien natives were very valuable to the universe in his palm, and depending on the degree of reaction, the value was definitely stronger than that of ordinary alien natives.

"Gather five squadrons, two giant god soldiers, and set off with me in half an hour."

He gave the order to Thunderhammer, waited for him to go out, thought for a moment and went offline, but it only took twenty minutes to go back online.

After a little tidying up and going out, the troops had already assembled, five squadrons, that is, five hundred subordinates, including the supporting combat platform, and two giant god soldiers, put on protective clothing and entered one of the giant god soldiers, the thick steel gate of the base slowly opened, and the team drove in the direction of the No. 1 temporary outpost.

The road is safe, the troops have gone back and forth many times between Ji Xiang and the No. 1 temporary outpost, and a road has already been cleared, and there are special patrol teams patrolling back and forth to drive away large groups of fierce beasts, and there will occasionally be fierce beasts and poisonous insects passing by along the way, and there are no large groups blocking the road.

Quickly rushed to the vicinity of the No. 1 temporary outpost, standing more than forty meters high and looking outside the control hatch of the giant god soldier, the original No. 1 outpost has now become a ruin, the remaining troops are cleaning up the destroyed outpost, and the escort ship is rising to a height of thousands of meters to monitor the surroundings.

However, this kind of monitoring is not very useful, the vegetation on this planet is too lush, and the influence of the planet's magnetic field makes the alien natives feel the vicinity of the outpost without noticing.

Fang Ning arrived with his subordinates and quickly took over the defense, and he directly ordered to use the flamethrower on the combat platform to burn all the vegetation within 500 meters around the outpost, fill in the ravine, and establish a 500-meter transition zone, so that if the enemy touches it, it can be detected early and defended in time.

And this is only a preliminary plan, and when it is determined that the mineral reserves are sufficient, a larger area of vegetation will be burned to establish a formal base.

A few scientist apprentices are fine, they have been staying in the innermost part of the outpost, hiding in the underground shelter at the beginning of the battle, and only coming out after the battle, Fang Ning got a good news from them, that is, after preliminary detection, the Becerian stone reserves that have been detected alone have exceeded the standard of small mineral deposits, and it doesn't matter how many are left, just what is found now is enough for him to make up his mind to build a mining station base here.

As a result, the original temporary base had to be relocated.

With his current strength, it is a bit reluctant to defend two bases, and with this mining station base, the other base is a chicken rib.

The most important thing is that he also needs enough troops to face the local aboriginal who is physically strong, so he also went offline to leave a message to his girlfriend and asked her to prepare a batch of ground troops to support.

He used the escort ship of the base to first hoist the entire command building of the base, and moved all the alien corpses killed in the previous attack outpost to the warehouse in the backyard of the command building, about hundreds of tall corpses were piled up in the warehouse, and then used the universe in the palm to collect the corpses one by one, each corpse can harvest a full 0.5 points of contribution points in the universe in the palm, and after ten corpses, no longer get contribution points, but also collected a total of 5 points of contribution to the universe in the palm of the hand.

However, this is not the end, these are all dead corpses, with limited value, and the universe in the palm of the hand still needs ten living alien races, each of which can get a contribution to the universe in the palm of the hand.

In other words, this race alone could bring Fang Ning fifteen points of contribution to the universe in the palm of his hand, which was comparable to the harvest he had obtained from the Aether Dragon Scale Fragment in the Abyss difficulty dungeon.

The surplus corpses were stored in the ice vault ready for his subordinate scientists to study, and Fang Ning's consciousness sank into the universe in his palm, and began to receive the harvest of the ten alien corpses that had just been fused with the universe in his palm.

"Leviathan bloodline?"

The information transmitted into the brain surprised him very much, the reason why these ten corpses are so valuable is because the bloodline of this creature contains a very small amount of Leviathan genes, that is, this population can be regarded as the descendants of some kind of Leviathan, although I don't know how many generations later, the bloodline is too rare to be visible.

For example, it is equivalent to the kobold with dragon blood in fantasy, everyone knows that kobold have dragon blood, and some kobolds with strong enough bloodline can be promoted to powerful kobold dragon vein warlocks, but the vast majority of kobolds are the garbage race whose combat power can be compared to goblins.

Of course, this alien native is much more powerful than the kobold, and from the previous surveillance screen, it can be seen that any warrior in it has at least second-level combat effectiveness, and some powerful elites are not inferior to third-level elite genetic warriors, and the strength of the leading few is estimated to reach level four.

Such a powerful race is still innate, and to be honest, in addition to being able to exchange for the contribution of the universe in the palm of its hand, it also has great value in itself.

Such a powerful physique is more adaptable to all kinds of harsh environments in the universe than elite genetic warriors, this is a natural warrior race, and may not be able to use all kinds of high-tech weapons, but its own strength alone is enough to sweep away any indigenous civilization without a heaven.

It is a great fortune to conquer them and tame them.

If you can conquer and make them subordinate to you as a vassal race of your own, then ......

Fang Ning's eyes suddenly became solemn, if they could convince them to surrender to themselves and become a vassal race, with their strong physical fitness that was not afraid of the toxins of this planet and the assistance of technology, then what else could resist them on this planet?

"Perhaps, I could!"

The universe in his palm fused ten corpses, and the contribution of the universe in his palm was five points, and now the contribution degree in Fang Ning's hand had reached 3.04 points, if he fused ten more living natives, he could gain another ten points, which made him a little impatient, and he took this escort ship to patrol at low altitude and slow in the vicinity every day, looking for traces left by the indigenous civilization.
