Chapter 699: A Plan to Burn Money
In the cold and silent void, a fierce beast with a body length of nearly a kilometer and a hideous and vicious appearance like an enlarged centipede is patrolling the territory of its own race with a group of strong descendants!
The fine bone armor covered in the shape of fish scales, the thick and strong limbs, the huge mouth of the forest glow with a faint cold glow under the light of the starlight, and a faint dark red magnetic power field surrounds the body, which is not only a defensive barrier, but also a means to move quickly!
This guy is called the "Partridge" beast, and it is a highly intelligent social beast that is good at using magnetic energy to attack enemies, and always acts in groups, so it is very difficult to deal with!
The number of partridges in each group ranges from thousands to hundreds of thousands! Feed on other beasts in the starry sky, or certain energy-rich minerals! The average strength of an adult individual is around the Star Transformation Realm!
The strength of the kings in the clan can generally reach the peak of the Star Realm, or the Silent Star God of War, and even the terrifying existence of the Annihilation Star Realm level!
Each tribe of partridges can usually occupy a space around a star field, and the power range of those big tribes may reach several star fields! They are one of the most common indigenous races in the Wildland Planet Plain!
Illuminated by the starry sky, the patrol of the partridge beasts roamed gracefully along the gravitational tidal region at the edge of a star system, and the magnetic field around them flickered from time to time, and their huge bodies would glide out of the sky for a long distance!
Suddenly, a faintly glowing object in the far distance caught the attention of the guy in the lead!
Several pairs of huge dark green compound eye-like organs lit up one after another, and pulses of energy were sent out, quickly locking on the object's location! The magnetic field flickered rapidly. A dozen breaths. It has successfully approached the target.
It was a metal sphere about ten meters in diameter, silvery-gray, and extremely smooth throughout! It's floating in the void unhurriedly! Occasionally, extremely faint energy fluctuations are emitted. Sweep through the space around you with lightning speed!
The leader of the partridges observed it carefully for a few seconds, and then in some relatively simple way, he communicated with his companions who surrounded him.
With its not-so-bad intelligence and memories, it had roughly figured out where it came from: it was something thrown by those pesky intruders in the starry sky outside!
While this news made them excited, it also aroused the anger of the leader of the partridge beast! Those damned alien invaders, with some strange weapons, have slaughtered many of their kind!
To that end, after confirming the origin of the thing, it made a decision that seemed "reasonable" to its kind: eat it!
Do what you think! The metal sphere was pulled by the force field. It went into its stomach in an instant! Then, something happened that made this guy regret it!
A ball of dark blue light with a diameter of 10,000 meters appeared in the void, annihilating this powerful beast into nothingness, and even more than 20 of its kind around it were killed by the pond fish!
By the time the aftermath of the explosion dissipated, most of the beasts at the scene had died, and those who survived were covered in bruises and dying!
The pitch-black space fault spaceship quietly appeared not far away, and then leaned over to collect the corpses of these fierce beasts together!
In the space fault full of destructive energy tides, there are as many as a dozen space fault spaceships that are cruising around according to the predetermined plan, and once they get close to the settlements of some fierce beast groups, they will drop powerful antimatter annihilation bombs into the normal starry sky!
These bombs have a well-developed energy shielding system, making it difficult for the beasts who are adept at detecting them to detect the clues. As soon as they are brought closer, the life sensor inside the bomb will activate the fuse. Thus giving those guys a lesson that will last a lifetime!
At the same time, there are many more unmanned detectors disguised in different forms, which are placed in certain key locations to monitor the movements of those powerful beasts nearby.
“…… The plan looks pretty smooth! In the command hall in the war fortress, Xiao Junling looked at the star map on the three projection sand tables, which gradually became clear, and said with a smile:
"As long as you have a complete information monitoring network, you can grasp the information of these natives at any time! Then take targeted actions according to the actual situation and clean up these fierce beasts, which is not as difficult as imagined! What do you think? ”
Wei Qinghao and the others looked at each other, and Zhao Ziyan said with a wry smile: "Theoretically, this is indeed the case, but apart from you, a pervert, who else can learn this kind of tactic?" ”
It's not that they don't understand the benefits of this, but the crux of the matter lies in the word "money"!
The normal development plan of the Wild Star Domain cannot avoid the problem of breaking even, especially the children of these wealthy families, in the case of limited resources at hand, if they want to ensure sufficient income, they must control their expenditures, and the cost of each energy point must be carefully calculated before they can be decided!
But the situation in the Savage Star Field is complex and changeable, and anything can happen! Sometimes, because of a sudden accident, the entire well-planned military operation can fall short and suffer heavy losses!
Therefore, for them, the process of pioneering the wilderness is cautious and walking on thin ice! People like An Yulong and others can have the territory of the current scale, all of which are earned through hard work, painstaking management, and a little luck!
Although Xiao Junling's situation was similar to them in the early days, after the first pot of gold was discovered, such a situation never appeared again!
In order to reduce casualties and improve the efficiency of expansion, Xiao Junling always procures the most advanced weapons and equipment as much as possible, and even spends a lot of precious lord reputation points for this! And in the supply of supporting ammunition and other logistical materials, the more the merrier! The energy spar is a high-quality product from the Biluo Galaxy, and it is open to supply!
In the Delusion Sand Star Plain, at least as far as he could see, the level of skill of the battleships used by the children of these wealthy families was basically at the level of the fourth and fifth levels, and the sixth level was relatively rare, and the seventh level and above were basically not seen! The replenishment and quality of all kinds of logistics materials are far from being comparable with him!
In addition, those high-value and cost-effective special equipment, such as a large number of space fault spaceships, a complete multi-dimensional space reconnaissance and monitoring system, antimatter annihilation bombs with short-range space transition functions, batches of high-level ability equipment, etc., are either scarce or not at all here!
In contrast, the difference in development efficiency is needless to say!
Another key difference is the high-level abilities.
When pioneering, once they encounter the strong existence in those fierce beast groups, and they can't deal with it themselves, An Yulong and the others usually spend a certain price and ask the strong people in the family to solve it!
Of course, if you encounter those terrifying beasts that surpass the Annihilation Star Realm, and there is no strong person in the family who can deal with them enough, then you can only go to the Silent Star Temple to invite someone! Sometimes, because of this move, often all the dividends of a war are lost!
Of course, this is not a problem for Xiao Junling at all! Now, as long as he doesn't meet the existence of the Civilization Guardian Sage, he can win the battle without paying much price!
In a word, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools!
Xiao Junling attaches more importance to equipment, materials and logistical supplies, but in just a few years, the various treatments of the officers and soldiers of the legion under his command have directly caught up with the elite forces of all the wealthy families in the imperial capital, and the equipment level of some core troops is even higher than that of the elite legions of the Chinese Empire, plus first-class command ability! Assisted by elite mercenary legions! In the pioneer war, it was naturally invincible!
The confidence to create this powerful army is the Biluo Galaxy in Xiao Junling's hands, and the resulting wealth accumulation speed!
Now the strength that belongs to Xiao Junling's lineage has gradually grown, with the backing of the Silent Star Temple, and he has established an extraordinary intimate relationship with the two archons, and has received the envious support of many wealthy families! The prestige in the imperial capital can be described as skyrocketing!
Of course, although all this is enviable, but the other hostile giants can't say anything, if they can also bring so many cooperative benefits to these allies every year like Xiao Junling, then they can also get a different view from the temple and the archons!
In the next month, a monitoring network covering more than a dozen star fields around the Qingyue Star Domain was initially established! As a large number of probes continue to send the collected information back to the war fortress, the star map on the three-dimensional projection sand table is becoming clearer and clearer!
As for those large and small fierce beast communities distributed in the star field, these days through a variety of different ambush and sneak attack methods, occasionally Xiao Junling will personally take action, and a large number of them have been cleaned up!
"It looks like you're lucky," Xiao Junling said in the hall after reading the results of the light brain's assessment:
"The resource reserves of these star fields are quite rich, and they have basically reached the standard of second-level resource star fields, and four of them should be first-level resource star fields! And all of them have wormhole channels that can be reliably teleported! ”
"As long as the more difficult ferocity communities in these star fields are cleared, they can be brought into your control!"
Wei Qinghao said excitedly: "Since this is the case, then will we send troops now?" ”
He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and the same plan was for him to do, and it couldn't be completed in three or five years!
Of course, the price of all this is that the cumulative consumption expenditure of all kinds this month has reached as much as 6 billion energy points! It's almost equivalent to the military expenditure of the Wei family's son for three years!
At first glance, this approach is indeed a loss, at least in the first few years, before the territory is fully developed, this cost is difficult to recover! But the upside is that it saves a lot of time! And the casualty rate of the officers and soldiers under his command will not be too high!
If you use conventional means and develop step by step, you don't want to achieve the same results without three or five years of effort! (To be continued......)
