"Xu Tui, we are still 500,000 kilometers away from Laita. At the current cruising speed of Mach 70, we are expected to arrive at Laita in six hours.
In four hours, we will reach the warning distance." Inside the pilot ship, Ah Huang reminded Xu Tui.
"Well, wake up all members of the fleet and get ready for battle."
"clear."
Today is March 5, 2139, the fourth day since Xu Tui led his men to attack from Lingji Planet.
In the end, Xu Tui chose Laita Star as the first stop of his attack.
There are risks, but the Source Crystal Mine on Laita Star is also very attractive to Xu Tui.
At the same time, when the land reclamation came to Tower Star, Blue Star put a large amount of materials into the land reclamation group from the crater Mars base. Even after the land reclamation group was attacked by the Eldar and suffered heavy casualties, due to the signal delay, Blue Star still continued to send
The supplies were put in for more than ten days.
Among them, there are a large number of energy potions, medical kits, source crystals, and key accessories for establishing a temporary base, especially communications.
There are many.
The Eldar should have no interest in picking up these things.
Even if you pick them up, you won't be able to finish them all. Laitaxing is very big and the terrain is very complicated.
Xu Tui just wanted to pick up a wave of supplies first and develop for a period of time. He is now in the period of rapid improvement in strength and urgently needs a large amount of supplies.
However, Laitaxing is only Xu Tui's first choice. If there is a problem with Laitaxing, Xu Tui will immediately turn to his second target.
Because of this, Xu's attack this time did not bring too many people with him.
Someone must guard the house.
That's right, everyone in the Tongtian Wasteland Development Group now calls Lingji Planet home.
Among the powerful people on the quasi-planet, Bu Qingqiu can be trusted absolutely, so it is necessary for Bu Qingqiu to guard the home.
But Xu Tui took the initiative to attack, and it would not be possible without a quasi-planetary powerhouse.
After careful consideration, Xu Tui brought out all the unstable factors.
Such as Ginpachi, such as Lavis.
The Spirit Queen stayed on the Spirit Machine Planet, mainly because the Spirit Queen was too big to fit into the Machine Spirit Clan's Hunter-Slayer disc-shaped machine, so a supply ship had to be dispatched.
For the sake of safety and speed, Xu retreated this time with a fleet of eight Hunter-Killer disc fighters.
The cruising speed of the aerospace fighter is Mach 50, and the limit is Mach 60, while the cruising speed of the Hunter is Mach 70, and the limit speed can reach Mach 80 after Ah Huang's comprehensive adjustments.
The speed is more than 30% faster. This is the reason why Xu Tui chose the hunter. Of course, the main reason is the quantity.
There are currently more than a dozen Predators in existence, and there is also a production line for two air and space fighter aircraft.
In this case, the disadvantage of the hunter-killer saucer's relatively small carrying capacity is nothing.
The crew of an aerospace fighter plane is four to six people. If you squeeze a little more, ten or even twelve people can be crammed in, and it won't be a problem.
But the number of passengers on the Predator is one to three, and adding one or two more is fine, but it will be very uncomfortable.
Of course, the most important thing is speed.
For example, if you use an aerial fighter to get to the Tower Star, it will take five and a half to six days, but with a Predator, it will only take four days.
Therefore, this time Xu retreated and led not many people, but only the main force.
An Xiaoxue, Wen Shao and Qu Qingshan, Yan Zi and Lang Ju, Yin Liulong, Yan Lie and Xuan Lang and Xuan Ju from the Ant-Man tribe.
It can be regarded as a mixed expeditionary force.
Naturally, Xu Tui and An Xiaoxue had a fighter plane to themselves. In addition to practicing every day, they could also live a life without shame, making the originally lonely space voyage very interesting.
"Lavis, you and Yinba will go out with instruments to conduct reconnaissance to see if the Spirit Tribe has any backup." Four and a half hours later, amidst Xu Tui's orders, Lavis and Yan Lie rushed out of the fighter plane.
.
The entire fleet also slowed down.
An hour later, Yinba took the initiative to contact Xu Tui, "Sir, we found several Eldar-style signal towers. Do you want to destroy them?"
"Can you approach and control it with concealed aura?" Xu Tui said.
"I can't." Ginpachi denied.
"It's easy to destroy, but difficult to control. I'm not good at this," Lavis said.
"Let them take me there and put my signal amplifier down." Ah Huang started.
In terms of data offense, Ah Huang is the best at it.
"Give me some time, I can quietly control these surveillance signal towers without changing them.
The technological equipment of the Spirit Tribe is basically all from the Mechanical Spirit Tribe, and it is very easy for me to control it." Ah Huang said after investigating.
Three hours later, in the darkness, the fleet landed quietly on Laita Star.
Soon, Xuanlang and Xuanju came to the conclusion, "Sir, this planet has thin air, and our ant beasts can move.
But it’s not clear whether it will affect lifespan.”
"Then send them out. Bring back whatever you can with the appearance of the items I gave you."
A few minutes later, Xuanlang and Xuanju commanded three thousand ant beasts and disappeared into Laita Star in the night.
When he came, Xu Tui brought with him three thousand mutant ant beasts. These ant beasts were not strong, but they were small in size, fast in movement, and easy to carry. They were just used for searching and consumption.
Scattered together with the three thousand mutant ant beasts, there are two drone formations, each formation has ten drones, all of which are used to search for supplies.
Lavis, Yinqi, Yanzi, and Langju were on alert, but Xu Tui took the others and the eight dwarf giant robots newly manufactured by Ah Huang, and went straight to the shelter where An Xiaoxue and the others had saved their lives.
It has not been long since the last time Xu retreated to rescue people. The traces of the war here are still there. Because of the last three-phase thermal explosive bomb, the passage has already collapsed.
How to put it this way, due to the size of the dwarf giant, it is good for automated operations and construction operations, but this kind of excavation work is relatively slow.
The role of Yin Liulong was revealed at this time.
He directly transformed into the digging form and dug in quickly, but retreating seemed a bit slow.
Half an hour later, Xu Tui called Ginpachi, who was once a planet and now a quasi-planet, and motioned for Ginpachi to join the excavation team.
Ginpachi looked aggrieved.
He is a planet-level powerhouse, and he has never been used like this in the hands of the Mechanical Spirit Clan before.
However, as Xu Tui's eyes widened, Ginpachi still transformed into the digging form and worked quickly.
There is no way, who made him fall to the quasi-planet and become a prisoner.
With the addition of Ginpachi and Ginrokulong, the excavation speed is many times faster.
Half a day later, deep in the passage, everyone was stunned when they saw the source crystal veins that had been dug out.
Not to mention Qu Qingshan and Wen Shao, even Yin Ba and Yin Liulong were dumbfounded.
There is actually a source crystal vein here, and it is a rich ore.
The eight dwarf giant-generation robots, which had been programmed long ago, began to construct and lay out the mineral veins.
In fact, this kind of source crystal vein is a bit like digging for gems. The infrastructure preparation for mining is quite simple.
After half a day, mining started.
According to calculations, the daily output is about one hundred grams of source crystal, mainly because there are relatively few robots involved in mining.
When some robots are shipped in the next wave, the output can be further increased.
However, Xu Tui was very short of source crystals at this time. Under Xu Tui's gaze, Yin Liulong actively transformed into a mining form and participated in the mining process.
Ginpachi was a little reluctant, but he still transformed into the digging form. After all, he had been a top decision-maker for many years and a planet-level powerhouse. Even if he was a vassal, his status was very high.
Now that I have suddenly become a tool person, I still feel a little uncomfortable.
"Five percent of what is mined belongs to you."
When Xu Tui gave out the reward to this guest, even Ginpachi instantly transformed into the weird form of a four-way excavator. The mining speed of one person was much faster than the sum of eight dwarf giant robots.
"It's okay. Let's all dig. Whoever digs out the most will be the one who owns it."
As the dwarf giant progressed, the veins of minerals expanded, and they were idle anyway. Qu Qingshan, Yan Lie, Wen Shao and others also participated in the mining operation.
Xu Tui and An Xiaoxue started practicing leisurely.
Where there are source crystal veins, the concentration of source energy is much higher, and the cultivation efficiency is very high, reaching almost one-third of that of practicing with source crystals.
Not long after, Qu Qingshan, Wen Shao, and Yan Lie also realized that cultivation was more important than digging.
The three of them also learned to practice like Xu Tui, An Xiaoxue, and Yan Lie was the only one who looked at Xu Tui eagerly.
It's better to repair it with the group leader, the speed is extremely fast!
Xu Tui and others stayed in Laitaxing for half a month. Most of the time was spent practicing, which can be said to be a rapid progress.
The internal circulation chains newly constructed by Xu Tui and An Xiaoxue each have more than seventy links.
The strength of the two of them has grown by leaps and bounds.
Yan Lie, who was occasionally taken care of by Xu Tui, also improved rapidly in strength.
The rest of the time, Xu Tui and others spent all their time opening boxes.
That's right, it's unboxing.
The ant beasts controlled by Xuanlang and Xuanju, as well as the drone formations, have transported a large number of supply boxes scattered from Blue Star from all directions and corners of Laita Star in the past half month. The number exceeds
Three thousand.
A quarter of it is food, another quarter is various key shelter construction and communication maintenance equipment, and the remaining half is medicine and source crystals.
Mainly various energy replenishing potions, therapeutic potions and source crystals.
Source crystal accounts for about a quarter.
Unfortunately, each supply box does not contain many Source Crystals.
Because the position when landing is random during teleportation, there are many supply boxes, but the contents are not large.
The source crystals in the supply box are all standard ten grams.
Source crystals were found in thousands of supply boxes. From this alone, Xu Tui harvested more than 11 kilograms of source crystals, which made Xu Tui a windfall.
There are also tens of thousands of bottles of D-level energy replenishing potions. At that time, Blue Star actually spent a lot of money to support the expedition's land reclamation team.
The amount of Source Crystal that Xu Tui picked up as a scavenger was as high as 11 kilograms.
And, that's not all.
In the past half month, the area that three thousand ant beasts had searched was less than one-third of Laita Star.
But the search is no longer possible.
From the sixth day after arriving on Laita Star, ant beasts have been dying continuously.
This made Xu Tui and the others very nervous at first, but later they found the body of the ant beast and found that it was a physiological death. It should be that it was not adapted to the environment of Laita Star and died gradually.
As of today, less than twenty of the three thousand ant beasts can survive.
But the amazing thing is that half of the twenty ant beasts actually broke through to the realm of genetic evolution during this catastrophic search.
Too bad it's not Ant-Man.
On March 21, except for the eight dwarf giant-generation engineering robots that were programmed to mine silently, Xu Tui took everyone away from Laita.
It’s considered a fruitful return.
Not to mention the 11 kilograms of source crystals obtained from medicines, equipment and scavenging, the amount of source crystals obtained through full-scale mining in the past half month has reached more than 5,000 grams, most of which were mined by Yinba and Yinliulong.
The two masters of the Mechanical Spirit Tribe transformed into the mining form. The amount of mining in one day was astonishing, mainly because the 10% reward was astonishing.
Basically, Ginba can mine 150 grams a day, and Gin Liulong can mine close to 100 grams a day.
In half a month, they each received a reward of one hundred to two hundred grams of source crystal.
This amount makes Yin Liulong very satisfied, and Ginba is also very satisfied.
Although for him in the past, more than two hundred grams of source crystals was not much, when he used to work under the Spirit Clan, one hundred grams of source crystals were distributed to him every month.
But today, as a prisoner, he is still very conscious.
At least in the short term, Xu Tui will not pay him wages.
On the fighter plane that set off again, Xu Tui and Ginpachi were making final confirmations.
"Ginpachi, what you said about the location of the Mechanical Spirit Tribe's breeding planet is correct, right?"
"Don't worry, sir, it's true."
"Okay, I believe you! But Ginpachi, this is the first certificate of nomination you have received, so from now on, before we safely arrive at the breeding planet of the Mechanical Spirit Tribe you mentioned, I will be more vigilant.
To the highest level, always be on guard against you.
Until we take over this breeding planet, you can't gain my initial trust, understand?" Xu Tui said directly.
"Sir, I understand, please rest assured!"
