"He's back."

In the gloomy room, a figure sat in the corner and spoke in a low voice.

In the middle of the day, another figure directly opposite spoke:

"I know."

"Sooner than expected."

"So what."

After a moment of silence, another voice continued:

"The latest news, he has purchased a standard division-sized fleet at Shanhaiguan!"

"What? Is the news true?"

"If you send someone to the military base on the edge of Garan, you will know that it is indeed a fleet of standard division and regimental size, and it is full of standard, two Titan Super Flags and two supercarriers, and twenty-five flagships."

There was silence in the shadowed room, followed by the sound of a snort.

"Smack!"

A flame lit up and approached a delicate-looking cigarette, and the firelight also illuminated the face, if Li Qing was here, he would definitely recognize it as Gu Shenzhou and Feng Lixiu.

Taking a hard puff of his cigarette, Gu Shenzhou said in a deep voice:

"The situation has changed, his strength has increased dramatically, our risk has also increased, and we need more support."

"Rest assured, their financial resources are stronger than we thought, and support will not be a problem."

Speaking of this, Feng Lixiu was silent for a moment, and asked Gu Shenzhou, who was swallowing clouds and spitting mist:

"Are you really going to fight him to the end?"

Gu Shenzhou glanced up at him and said with a smile:

"Someone supports resources for free, why should I refuse?"

After a pause, he said:

"I'll keep my promise, but if he's too strong to beat, there's no way to do it."

"And what if it's possible?"

Gu Shenzhou asked rhetorically:

"Isn't that right?"

"You're such a bastard."

Gu Shenzhou made a pause, and then said quietly:

"In this world, how can you achieve anything without being a bastard, as long as you are bad enough, you can get what you want."

"Besides, we can't help ourselves!"

After two long sighs, the room fell silent.

Lord's Mansion, Li Qing returned to the lord's office after a few years of inspection, where Yu Yuefei usually presided over the territory work on his behalf, and when he came over, he saw a large number of unfamiliar administrative officials, some of them were clansmen of the Li clan of Qinghe, some of them were from the Yu clan of Jinmen, and a small number were recruited from ordinary players.

It is impossible for a territory to use one faction for all, it must be balanced by several factions, and if one is dominant, there will be chaos in the future.

It's fine to have a lord with great strength and prestige, but if the lord is not there, or if the lord is in charge, the prestige of the successor is insufficient, and there will definitely be trouble.

Of course, these did not have a great impact on Li Qing, and in the future, he would definitely turn the main management officials of the territory into servants of light, and he could directly eliminate most of the problems.

Sitting in the huge office, Li Qing gently knocked on the bell on the edge of the luxurious desk, and after a while, Yu Wanyue, who was wearing a hip-wrapping skirt to highlight her beautiful figure, walked in, she was a senior assistant to the governor in the territory, the director of the territorial personnel, and the director of the governor's office, which was equivalent to Yu Yuefei's assistant.

has been in power for many years, and she also has a more vigorous and resolute temperament.

….

Li Qing didn't say much, mainly afraid that she would misunderstand with his wife, and after listening to the work report, he praised and affirmed her work during this time, and then reached out and turned a bright light in his palm, and said:

"This thing can make you reborn and forcibly promote the golden name talent like the two brothers Li Lie and Li Qi, but the consequence is that you will always be loyal to me, are you willing?"

Yu Wanyue immediately showed a hint of joy, and said without hesitation:

"I do!"

"Good!"

Looking at the speed of her response, Li Qing was very satisfied.

Among the many core members of the territory now, she has not yet been ignited

Servants of the Light.

Although with her Yu family background and high position in the territory, it is impossible for the Baji Consortium to give higher conditions, but some things are inaccurate, no one is perfect, there are always weaknesses, and in the Xinghai era, there are a lot of means to plot against a person.

Therefore, Li Qing still considered giving her a place as a servant of light, not only to ensure loyalty, but also to improve her ability and better management.

In this way, the territory is Yu Yuefei's two sisters, and Ding Youran is still an ordinary human being.

Li Qing had already thought about it, and when he defeated the combined civilization of the Shata tribe, he would squeeze all the captives out of civilization points, and when the time came, he would be able to squeeze out two or three thousand points, and then exchange them for two static streamers to convert them into negative stars.

The reason why it is not now, of course, is that the civilization point is not enough.

Now he needs to rely on himself to condense the battleship master chip, and then the Doomsday Light master chip will also be upgraded, which requires a large number of civilization points to speed up this condensation process.

There is already a dreadnought mother chip, and if you get a battleship master chip, you can immediately reverse the dreadnought battleship blueprint, don't be too cool when the time comes.

The conversion was quick and didn't take long.

But I don't know if it's an illusion, when the transformation was completed, he felt that something was wrong with Yu Wanyue's eyes.

When she left, the huge office was alone, Li Qing sat on the luxury chair and rested on the desk with his feet crossed, opening the channel of the territory.

"Huh!"

After staying in Shanhaiguan for a long time, when he came back to watch his territory channel, Li Qing immediately felt unwell.

"It's too small!"

Shanhaiguan's channel has hundreds of branch channels, and the scope of influence covers thousands of light years.

What is the concept of that, that means that players can communicate in real time anywhere within a radius of five hundred light years from Shanhaiguan without any delay.

And the channel in his territory is still an initial channel established at the beginning, there are only two branch channels, one is the territory branch, and the other is the expeditionary force branch, whether the player is posting advertisements, or seeking to form a team, or trading, etc., can only speak in these two channels, resulting in uneven information inside, which looks extremely confusing.

"This won't work, it has to be expanded."

Li Qing did not hesitate to open the lord panel and began to edit the territory channel.

The territory panel is just a panel that fully controls the territory, but this setting is only a preset, not to say that the territory is changed immediately, and what you want to change must be implemented after the preset.

For example, if he wants to change the channel of the territory, he must first preset the template in the lord panel, and then put civilization points according to the scope and difficulty of the template before it can take effect.

….

The territory channel is actually important in general, but it is not important if the channel can expand the experience, and the territory will be expanded in the future, opening up the channel with the Tianjin gate, a large number of players will gather, and if the territory channel is good, it will also have a certain effect of attracting players.

So.....

Li Qing looked at the phantom of the territory channel projected in front of him, and the first step was to expand the range, grabbed it with both hands and pulled it outward, directly pulling it to a diameter of one hundred light years, and then naturally knew in his heart that he needed 50 civilization points.

This means that players will be able to communicate in real-time within any galaxy within this 100 light-years range.

But this is not enough, at least Li Qing feels that it is not enough.

With another pull of both hands, the range was expanded tenfold again, to a thousand light-years.

Then he sensed in his mind that this time he needed a full 200 civilization points.

"It's okay!"

He thought he needed 500 civilization points before, but he didn't expect it to be much less than he imagined.

It seems that this expansion increase is not one civilization point per light year, but another algorithm.

"A thousand light years..."

Li Qing opened the star map and looked at the range of a thousand light years, the north side was already close to the isolation interference zone, the west side was close to the original Quelta Fortress, and the east side had crossed the Locke Fortress of the Shata civilization and entered the interior of the Shata United Empire.

"It could be bigger."

Li Qing stretched out his hand again, this time the stretching range directly exceeded the former headquarters system of the expeditionary force, covering part of the Lester Pirate Group in the south, and already touching the capital star of the Shata United Empire in the east.

Looking at the civilization point demand, it takes 650 points.

"Well, it's okay."

This consumption is a bit outrageous, and the regional channels in Shanhaiguan are not so big.

Shanhaiguan belongs to the Senate of the United Empire of Mankind, and does not belong to anyone's rule, and cannot obtain civilization points, so the civilization points of the three core fortresses are provided by the major lords.

Civilization is not a cabbage, which military master is accumulating, of course, he is reluctant to spend too much in this regard.

Li Qing only thought about it briefly, and then decided that the territory channel of the blue collar was so big.

The reason is very simple, the territory channel coverage is the territory of the territory by default, and now the territory channel covers the vicinity of the capital of the United Empire of Shata, which means that his territory will also expand there in the future.

"No, it needs to be bigger."

Li Qing once again expanded his territory, consuming a total of 850 civilization points, including the entire central province of the Shata United Empire.

In this way, in the future, when the Shata United Empire is captured, the covered central provinces will be his territory by default, and the life planets in it will naturally belong to him by default.

Although Zutar's side can only grab two life planets by default, it ..... This is also the default rule, but I don't know which default has a higher priority.

Li Qing felt that he could find an opportunity to ask the old patriarch that if the default rules of the territory had a higher priority, then he must spend a lot of civilization points to cover the entire Shata United Empire in order to complete the default possession.

For now, let's do it for now.

It costs 850 civilization points, and the territory channel coverage is 4600 light-years.

To the east: Covers the central province of the United Empire of Shata.

….

To the south: Covers the Lester Pirate Group, close to the transit base at the junction of the Zutar and Tianjin star fields.

To the west: It has surpassed the original expeditionary force base a few hundred light-years to the west.

To the north: It has crossed the isolation interference zone and is more than 1,000 light-years to the north.

Then, Li Qing began to consume civilization points again and began to add branch channels within the territory channel.

Adding branch channels also consumes additional civilization points, and the amount consumed depends on the size of the channel, and the larger the channel range, the greater the cost.

Li Qing tried to divide the first channel, but found that it took a full 85 civilization points to separate one.

That is, one branch channel is equivalent to one-tenth of the main channel.

"Terrible!"

But I had to divide a few channels, otherwise it would still be a bit chicken.

After thinking about it carefully, he has a total of ten branch channels outside the main channel-

Channels 1 and 2 are player team channels: there are two in total, all individuals or squads in the territory team up on channel 1, large teams and chambers of commerce recruit escorts, mercenaries, etc., all of which are classified in channel 2.

Channels 3 & 4 Business Transaction Channel: No need to explain, all kinds of deals are advertised here.

The Business Channel is also divided into two channels: Channel 1 is for individual player transactions, and Channel 2 is dedicated to teams and commercial companies.

Channel 5: War Channel: The war-related content is discussed here.

Channel 6: Army Channel: This channel is only open to Army players.

Channel 7: Life Career Channel: This channel is only open to life players, such as shipbuilding engineers, scientists and other life professional players.

Channel 8: Casual Player Channel: The vast majority of players have no talent and capital, they can only be an ordinary person, and ordinary people work every day to run around for life, and they are not living very well, and there will be no dedicated channels for them in most territories, but Li Qing considers that there will definitely be many ordinary players in the territory in the future, and provides them with a place for them to communicate.

Channel 9: Anonymous Channel: This channel can be set up anonymously, anyone can enter the speech, and set up a message box, where players can leave a message to the territory to make various suggestions.

In addition to these nine public channels, there is also an internal channel for members of the territory to communicate.

Of course, that channel of the Expeditionary Force is still there, but it is the channel of the Expeditionary Force, and he can't expand it, and he won't expand it.

It just happens to be used as a foil, but if a normal person looks at the expeditionary force channel is limited to one galaxy, and the coverage of the channel is as high as 4600 light years of real-time communication, it is self-evident where he will choose to stay.

It is worth mentioning that the player's personal communication range is also determined by the local regional channel, his territory channel covers 4600 light years, and the distance that players in the channel can communicate in real time is also 4600 light years.

Of course, it is only for players who are blue collar players, and in order to enjoy this benefit, they must join the blue collar and obtain a status similar to that of an account.

This type of player who belongs to the Garlan Collar will be able to provide Civilization Points to the Liege.

Except for public channels like Shanhaiguan, which is affiliated with the Senate of the United Empire of Humanity and is open to all human players, and does not require a Shanhaiguan account.

Ten branch channels, 850 civilization points were spent, plus 850 points were added to the main channel, a total of 1700 civilization points, and most of the remaining civilization points were used at once.

But Li Qing felt that the cost was worth it, no matter what way it was.

When the 1700 civilization points were smashed down in less than two seconds, he received a message from Li Lie:

"it, boss, let's see how the territory channel has changed?"

Li Qing asked rhetorically:

"How did you know so quickly?"

"I don't know how many people are staring at the channel all the time, how can they not know such a big change."

"Well, nothing, I just expanded the channel."

"Good guy, the coverage is so wide, boss, you've spent a lot of money!"

"Of course."
