Chapter 557: Golden Lock

"Cut! A bunch of useless rubbish! The little fat man rubbed his aching fists and feet, and finally stopped venting.

He watched the old patriarch spit in disgust, and then he tidied up the jeweled golden robe on his body, and walked on his throne more than ten meters high with his little short legs pretending to be majestic.

The fat man resembles a werewolf, with a slightly protruding nose and a pair of pointed ears, but his height and bloated size of less than 1 meter undoubtedly ruined the momentum that should have been fierce.

It wasn't until the fat man sat back on the main seat that the two tall werewolf guards standing on the left and right took their vigilant eyes off the old patriarch.

"Lord Jinluo, the protection of our clan is not good, resulting in the damage to a piece of equipment, and we are willing to be punished." The old patriarch seemed to have become accustomed to such treatment, and confessed his guilt very plainly.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in the little fat man's small eyes, and a greedy smile immediately appeared.

"Of course, punishment is to be punished, your Ryan clan's material supply this year will be reduced by three percent, taxes will be added by two percent, and an additional 300,000 ordinary warriors and 1,000 bronze warriors will be provided!"

How can the little fat man look like he was just angry at this moment, and he got rid of the face of a profiteer who successfully deducted the employee's bonus.

He had already learned that although the wormhole expansion device was not lightly damaged, the core components were not damaged, and only a repair fee was needed to restore it to its original state.

Add this plus and subtract, and you can still earn a lot!

Hearing Jin Luo's punishment, the old patriarch who had always had a cold and hard face couldn't help but twitch fiercely.

The defeat in this battle was entirely due to the exposure of the coordinates of the three equipment, and the fact that the Twins had gathered far more troops than expected, in fact, the incorrect information provided by Jin Luo was the root cause of the failure.

But he knew that at this time, the more he argued, the heavier the punishment would be.

The greedy and miserly Kinglock, who started out as a loan shark, would find ways to scrape off a layer of flesh for even a mosquito leg, and became infamous within the Woolf civilization.

300,000 ordinary warriors, 1,000 bronze warriors...... How many of these people will survive......

Sighing in his heart for the tragic fate of his clan, the old patriarch could only drip blood in his heart, gritting his teeth and being silent.

"Forget it this time, but next, I want you to defeat the low-level civilization on the other side as soon as possible and open up the wormhole passage!

I've already contacted several big customers within the empire, just waiting to divide up the slaves and planets on the other side, if we let our god wait, I can't spare you! ”

The little fat man took out a delicate little golden file and said casually while repairing his sharp nails.

"My lord, the enemy has learned the coordinates of the three devices from some source, and this time he is planning to attack, although he did not succeed, but he will definitely not give up in the future, and will definitely make a comeback.

Judging from these battles, the enemy is stronger than our race as a whole, both in terms of the number of warships and weapon technology, and has a terrifying war star, which is by no means a weak civilization that can invade at will.

This time, the strength of our clan has been greatly damaged, and the battleships have also lost more than sixty percent, and if we have to divide our troops to defend in three places, I am afraid that they will be broken by the enemy one by one. Faced with such a brainless request, the old patriarch could only explain helplessly.

"Humph! Sure enough, it's a bunch of waste, I spent so much money to buy you, I knew it would be better to buy some mechanical cannon fodder! Jin Luo was still scolding.

He doesn't care why you can't do it, in the eyes of Jin Locke, the Lane clan is a hunting dog under him, and the hunting dog can't bite the prey, so what value do you have?

He bought the ownership of the Lane clan in order to grab greater benefits, but he doesn't care about your heavy casualties, he only looks at the results.

However, the danger of the three precious wormhole expansion devices had to be taken seriously.

This thing is not cheap, and those arms dealers suck blood, but they are no lighter than his golden lock.

"Forget it, for the sake of your hard work, I will make another investment, 30,000 warrior enhancement places, 10,000 bronze mechas, and 500 warships!" Jin Luo said with some flesh pain.

In fact, except for 10,000 bronze mechs, the rest of these things cost nothing at all.

The enhancement technology provided by Kinglock has long been eliminated by the Woolf civilization, and the patent protection period has passed for several years, and the cost is basically negligible.

The 500 warships were also second-hand goods that were close to being scrapped, basically converted armed merchant ships, which were reused by Kinglok at the price of scrap.

Even if it was only a small amount of money for Kinlock, the additional expenditure that was "off-budget" still made him sad.

The old patriarch heard Jin Luo's words, and stopped talking.

This support, at most, is to strengthen the strength of the Ryan clan a little, and there is no way to crush or even defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.

But he looked at Jin Luo's face and knew that this guy would never continue to bleed, so he could only sigh again in his heart.

"Yes! The Lane will do their best to complete the task of the adults! ”

……

"The Great Merchant of the Golden Wolf Clan of the Woolf Empire? Unexpectedly, the one who made Gemini like a great enemy was actually just a greedy businessman? Even if Nie Yun was familiar with brain teasers, he didn't expect things to develop like this.

From Spartak's mouth, Nie Yun learned that the Ryan clan and these vassal miscellaneous soldiers were all private property purchased by the great merchant of the empire named Jinluo.

The Woolf civilization is a typical imperial civilization, with a vast territory, and even the Ryan clan does not know how many galaxies it has traversed, only that it is a top civilization that belongs to the Orion Cantilevered Fourth Galaxy Group, and there are many vassal civilizations under its command.

These vassal civilizations were managed and supervised by the military of the Woolf Empire after conquest, and after a certain degree of military harmlessness, they were sold to major powers as thugs.

These harmless treatments include technological forced faults, industrial process restrictions, and high dependence on materials.

Due to the lack of a complete industrial chain or even a food lifeline, these vassal races were firmly in the hands of the Woolf Empire, and became a special "foreign legion" with the characteristics of the Woolf civilization.

After 10,000 years of development and interstellar voyages, the Woolf Empire has long been out of the original stage of relying on official development of territory, and is more of a profit-driven expansion of private capital.

Among them, the "Foreign Legion" system of vassal civilizations provides the empire with a model of war that benefits but does not cost, after all, vassal civilizations do not need pensions.

The Gemini civilization was lucky that it was only a weak vassal civilization that it bumped into at the beginning, and it did not come into contact with the real core area of the Woolf Empire at all.

I thought it was a glimpse of the whole leopard, but I didn't expect to see the lice on the leopard's body, and I don't know whether to say that Gemini is lucky or unlucky.

The Woolf Empire is not only powerful, but also has a very strong business atmosphere, and the power of capital is quite strong, and a powerful businessman like Jin Luo can not only have his own military power, but even own dozens of private "real estate" in the galaxy.

Soon after the wormhole of the twin stars was exposed, the coordinate information was sold, and after the transfer, it was exclusively bought out by Kinglock, and began to prepare for conquest and development.

Every wormhole means a virgin land of unknown value, as well as a civilization resource of unknown value.

It's like gambling on a stone, you can never guess whether it will be worthless or rich overnight.

For a greedy businessman like Jin Locke, who dreams of a million profits, buying a wormhole coordinate and developing it himself is like gambling on a stone, full of infinite possibilities......

The Lane clan, which is so powerful, is only one of the many vassal civilizations of the Woolf Empire, and unfortunately, they were bought by the greedy and miserly merchant Kinlock, and for the sake of the continuation of the clan, they can only serve as pawns.

Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs!

"It is worthy of the boundless universe, thousands of races, the vision of this seat...... It's still a little small! Nie Yun sighed, but his eyes were full of excitement.

He thought he was opening a door, but the other side gave him a whole world......
