265. The eve of the expedition
"The ship's power furnace needs to be replenished in four times, and when entering the star field, it can rely on gravitational acceleration to reduce consumption by 30%, and it can also produce materials by relying on the sun, but repair and maintenance are ...... There is still a shortage of skilled workers. ”

"Oh?"
Li Oz was surprised:
"You can still trigger an event? The potential of the White Candle Star is quite good. ”
Event quests can be triggered, which basically means that there must be some important main or side quests on the road ahead.
The target field of Leoz is called 'Qijuzi-331', which is on the edge of the Milky Way Eye, but only Leoz knows that there are many unexplored planets in this field.
"Qijuzi-331: I remember that my previous life was explored by an adventurer named Jialantu Yundai."
It was a magical area, and in a sense, it didn't belong to Xingyuan's sphere of influence.
The Qijuzi-331 star field is not small, and it is related to the main plot of version 4.0, Li Aozi still needs a lot of help if he wants to advance.
After being replenished by Azure Star players, Li Aozi's strength is unprecedentedly strong, but the players' equipment and experience in space warfare are not enough, so they just use this opportunity to train their troops.
Give players the intensity in advance, they have been training with weights for a long time, and when version 4.0 arrives, it will be easier.
"This time, the incident has also been brushed out, and it seems that there will be a lot of interesting places on the expedition."
Of course, Li Oz didn't just search for the sake of exploring the map.
On the one hand, he is out of helping White Candle Star get out of trouble, and on the other hand, he also has his own selfish intentions.
Li Oz wants to transfer to [Bishop of the Moonstring] next, and needs the sequence arcane ability of [Weak Force].
And this arcane ability needs to be provided by the 'qualitative direction' of one of the origins of the stars.
Qualitative and entropy Jun are the same level of existence, although Li Aozi is familiar with the strategy, but the universe is changing rapidly, and it is better to be fully prepared than anything else.
"In my previous life, I appeared in Qijuzi-331, I don't know if it will be the same this time."
Li Aozi was not sure of the trace of the quality, so he could only search for information and go to Qijuzi to test it.
"So, let me see what else the White Candle Star has at hand......"
…………………………
"How's that group of students?"
Second Class Superintendent Dubrandin rubbed his head, came to the cordon with a boxed lunch and coffee, and asked his colleagues on the front line while dividing the food in his hand.
"Thank you - I don't know the specifics, they are still on hunger strike, we shout once an hour, send the demons to patrol around, and for now we are just making sure they are safe."
A policeman shook his head:
"Really...... What the hell do these people think, it's just that they can't continue to be mages, and it's not that they can't find a job. ”
"There's no way, they thought they were docking with the Crystal Tower Civilization, but who would have thought that not long after they entered the school, the Crystal Tower Civilization completely abandoned them." Dubrandin explained.
"Shouldn't they be looking for the Crystal Tower civilization? We're all independent, what's the use of them being in a hurry at this moment. A young officer muttered. No matter how much they protest now, it is impossible to give them a cross-civilization adjustment, what are these young people thinking? ”
Dubrandin didn't know what to say for a moment.
Fortunately, the new police officer was open-mouthed and said in one sentence:
"Crystal Civilization...... Don't want them. ”
Dubrandin looked in the direction of the campus, and even though the cordon was pulled up at the door, young people could be seen sitting cross-legged and holding banners in protest.
"President Leoz must give us an explanation!"
"Our youth cannot be in vain!"
"I was originally a mage, and education ruined me!"
White Candle Comprehensive University, formerly known as the Wanyue Incident, was formed by the merger of the White Candle Interstellar University and a number of colleges and universities that were protected from disasters, and the teaching level has been greatly retreated, and the teaching team is also close to retirement.
Whether these students can really become mages of the Zeta Rank is unknown. The taxpayers are still providing for them to go to college, and they have supported them for five full years, which is already benevolent.
Who knows, even if it has fallen to this point, the Crystal Tower civilization still withdrew the last teachers, making the already not rich educational environment even worse.
"It's a man-made disaster, a purely man-made disaster."
Dubrandin sighed.
In fact, this mass protest was quite detrimental to the nascent regime.
Because of the white candle star in the hand of Leoz just now, the internal affairs are extremely chaotic.
How chaotic is it?
Government civil servants like Dubrandin also enjoy the allowance of the former Crystal Tower civilization, because Dina is the exclusive currency of the Crystal Tower, which can only be printed by the Crystal Tower civilization, and their salary is simply paid by the Crystal Tower.
This has led to a strange phenomenon: the high-level mages and high-ranking people of the Crystal Tower settled with ammonium, allowing Leoz to buy a planet with a GDP of only 70 million ammonium gold, and the civil servants who have become independent have actually had a per capita income two thousand times higher than the per capita GDP because the establishment has not been changed.
At the same time, because the ammonium in Leoz's hands was greatly reduced, it was not enough to support the White Candle Dominion to print its own currency.
Government officials are now arguing over whether to return to the gold standard.
To sum up: government personnel in an independent state, including violent institutions such as the police, need the former suzerainty to be responsible for paying salaries and incentive allowances.
It sounds outrageous, and it's actually outrageous.
And in fact, this situation has lasted for five whole years, and many people are still inclined to the Crystal Tower civilization in their hearts, nostalgic for the era when it was an interstellar civilization.
There is nothing wrong with yearning for a better life, and the bad current situation of the White Candle Star is like a princess who has fallen into the earth, which is enough to make people cry out 'the depression of human civilization', 'life will get sweeter and sweeter', and 'hey, night butterfly'.
Ninety percent of political problems are ultimately rooted in economic problems.
After the students continued to fast for 37 hours, the White Candle State police officers ran out.
"There's no way, let's report it." Dubrandin said with a headache.
The front-line police officer was stunned:
"To whom? The Ministry of Education in our White Candle State has not yet been formed! Foreign ministry? But the Ministry of Foreign Affairs doesn't care about this, right? ”
"Then I can only report it to His Excellency the President."
Dubrandin pressed his hat.
