Since the unification of the star field and the establishment of the alliance in the summer, the number of pirates has increased despite the strong armed forces patrolling the star field.

These pirates were originally outlaws who licked blood on the tip of their knives, and the new pirates were all extinct scaly men, the remnants of fly men and blue light people, scattered all over the universe.

Don't look at the three major civilizations have powerful armed forces, speed, number and firepower are all strong, but dealing with this little pirate is really a headache, so a new profession of bounty hunter has appeared within the alliance.

Bounty hunters started out as stragglers, and gradually developed into large-scale organized hunter companies, specializing in recruiting veterans who can reach out to such as spaceship fighters, interstellar combatants, and special forces who can fight on the ground.

Hunter companies supply ships, weapons, and various equipment, collect rentals, or withdraw commissions for bonuses.

Bounty hunters can claim their rewards by catching or killing pirates, and catching or killing criminals caught by bounty orders. There is only one form of reward, and that is Star Coins, and they are a large number of Star Coins, which can be used to purchase luxury ships, territories on planets, asteroid mineral mining rights, and various items, all of which are not available to ordinary people.

Therefore, under the temptation of huge benefits, there will be many people who sign up to become bounty hunters, and through the official release of various arrest tasks, they will grab orders to do tasks, hand over tasks, and maybe pay a reward.

Of course, bounty hunters are also a high-risk profession, and if you don't get it right, you don't catch pirates or criminals, but you put your own life on the line. The official bounty department of the Alliance, which is not responsible for the safety of bounty hunters, has created a new corporate business, which is dedicated to the insurance industry for bounty hunters.

The insurance company will set the corresponding premium amount for the bounty hunter according to his physical health, various skills, age and other conditions.

Bounty hunters can use weapons, but the scope of use of this weapon is limited, and the use of weapons is prohibited within the specified distance of the Alliance's symbolized planets, artificial celestial bodies, ships, and legion units, including mechs and swarms, and the ship's weapon system will automatically turn off its access rights.

Because it is almost impossible for pirates to exist in these areas, and pirates cannot hide when they enter these control areas, they will be directly eliminated by the army, so there is no need for bounty hunters at all.

Only in those remote star fields, it will be very troublesome compared to the army's pursuit, so a bounty order will be issued, and the private bounty hunters will carry out the pursuit mission.

This is the current state of affairs in parts of the Union after reunification.

After reunification, the alliance has developed steadily and has been peaceful for a full 100 years. The Ming Dynasty grew to a super-sized fleet of 200 fleets at an explosive rate. With a fleet of 200 and a population of 100 billion, this was the original blueprint for the Summer Population Plan.

When the population of Daming reached its peak of 100 billion, the crazy population plan finally stopped the pace of rapid growth, and the summer also announced the termination of the population plan. The so-called population plan is the vigorous production of population through the population factory.

The cessation of population planning does not mean that population reproduction is restricted. For the reproduction of the population, the Ming Dynasty continued to be open. People are free to legally have children at will, and the number is not controlled. The so-called legal childbearing refers to childbearing in the state of marriage.

All children born are still genetically archived in order to prevent consanguineous marriages. The population factory was abandoned, the egg and sperm donation mission was cancelled, and the corresponding donation reward was cancelled. But people can still use artificial methods to reproduce, that is, couples can undergo in vitro fertilization in the hospital, and then place the fertilized egg in the machine for ten months of pregnancy, and finally the machine will give birth to the child, biologically speaking, this is still a natural person, not a clone, let alone a replicant, a biochemical and a robot.

In Daming, cloning technology is strictly prohibited, so there is no cloning in Daming, and there has never been.

With a population of 100 billion, according to the military-civilian ratio of 1:500, the Ming Dynasty has a total of 200 million military personnel. If the smallest meter-level fighter is used as the basis for combat power, the combat power of the Ming Dynasty has reached the peak glory of 200 billion.

In addition to such a powerful scale, military power, population, and technology have reached the peak state of history, and has the most powerful god-level weapon: the space replacement weapon, commonly known as the Angel Sword. After so many years of silence and rest, the heart of the summer to conquer the sea of stars began to sprout again.

In the past hundred years, not only the Ming Dynasty has made great progress, but other civilizations as well, including the two super allies of Demon Blade and Saint, as well as the other member civilizations of the alliance.

From the day the Alliance was founded, the Great Tomorrow Dollar, the Demon Blade Celestial Worm Calendar, and the New Age of Saints, all three of these timekeeping systems were canceled and a new timekeeping system was adopted: the ephemeris.

The ephemeris is still simplified according to the astronomy of the earth, that is, a year of 12 months, fixed 30 days per month, a total of 360 days in a year, 24 hours a day, starting at zero o'clock and ending at 24 o'clock. From 0:00 to 6:00 and from 6:00 to 24:00, these two time periods are night, and the time period from 6 o'clock to 18 o'clock is daytime, and this day and night system is also fixed.

So in the blink of an eye, it has been the 100th year of the ephemeris, and in this hundred years, in addition to the Ming Dynasty, as I said just now, the Demon Blade and the Saints have also made great progress.

The Demon Blade has grown to the size of 4,000 swarms, and if you count the number of soldiers, it has reached 400 billion troops, and it has stopped expanding, because there are too many of them to manage. Like Da Ming, in addition to being spectacular in scale, the Demon Blade actually has mastered a god-level weapon: the Light of Death.

The Reaper's Light, a domineering weapon against all carbon-based creatures, when activated, with the weapon as the center, all carbon-based creatures within a radius of about 8 million kilometers, from small single cells to large high-level intelligent creatures, will be spared, and there will be a terrifying "black explosion".

The so-called Black Explosion Disease is that all the cells on the body of the infected person will immediately undergo mutations and recombine, and in about three hours, the attacked organism will become like carrion, piles of flesh, and random scientific research of cell mixtures.

The Reaper's Light can be commanded by the Worm King through the Brain Worm Wave, which can then be emitted by the Worm Beast. The launch state, centered on insects and beasts, is a three-dimensional scattered launch, as long as it is within 8 million kilometers, all carbon-based creatures will be hit, unless it has obtained immunity in advance.

In the same way, in the course of this hundred years of development, the saints have also obtained a god-level weapon that is unrivaled in domineering.
