Chapter 544: You get what you pay for

Views:

When Basak asked Xiao Ran to recommend new people from his planet, he agreed without thinking too much about recommending people from his planet to join Prometheus. In fact, for Basak, he really There is no need to think too much, the legion needs to develop is an urgent issue, and as a warlike race like a berserker, Basak does not think there is any problem in recommending his own people to this place.

He believes in the fighting power and potential of the people on his planet. As long as he is a member of the Berserker clan, everyone is a born warrior, because they all grew up learning the inherited martial arts of the Berserker clan. Some of the more powerful ones include himself. The powerful and secret martial arts inherited from the family, the genius of the true berserker clan can burst out with all the power of blood, and can also maintain absolute sobriety when going berserk. Although it is unlikely that such a genius can appear among just five people. However, the berserker warriors who have a heritage of martial arts drive a body with a human-machine integrated system, which definitely complements each other.

Naluo, on the other hand, is not as confident as Basak. The homeland where Naluo lives has a relatively high level of technology, but his personal abilities are not as good as those of the berserker. Although he is much stronger than the people on earth, after all, Unlike the berserker clan, which has racial inheritance, Naluo's homeland still accounts for the majority of civilians. Even if they can obtain awakening skills, there is no guarantee that those randomly selected after the recommendation will be able to adapt to Prometheus. Sri Lanka's life.

Xiao Ran also understands this. After all, homes like Naluo should be normal and common. In the absence of enemies and wars, the race of berserkers who have all the people fighting even in peacetime should still be a minority in the universe, but there is no such thing. Xiao Ran, who planned to nominate Earthlings, did not want to allocate all ten spots to races that were inferior in other aspects except for their talent in fighting.

If you want to develop a legion, it is of course possible to rely on a certain advantage in the early stage, but if you rely on only one advantage, the advantage will also turn into a fatal shortcoming. Judging from the current situation, pilots specializing in combat are clearly in the majority. Adding five more would only make the team's structure more unbalanced, so Naluo's clan members seemed to have a significant proportion under such circumstances.

The best choice is to train a few sniper or firepower pilots and cooperate with the berserkers to form a reasonable team, although Naluo is worried. But that was just because they were worried that those people would affect the team and the legion, so after Xiao Ran's confirmation, the ten members were finalized, five from the Basak tribe and five from the Naluo tribe. But there is no one among Xiao Ran's tribe, that is, the Earthlings.

Although this decision has been made, Xiao Ran is not in a hurry to register for recommendation, because in addition to the ten designated planets that cannot designate personnel, Xiao Ran can also recommend ten people from exclusive camp territories, and they are also designated personnel. .

Which ten people should be recommended? In fact, Xiao Ran didn't need to think too much at all. There were already five members of the Skeleton Team. Including the four members of the SMS small macos-class bridge, there were only nine people. Even if the Fairy Team was added, There are only ten of them. Moreover, it is a team with its own responsibilities, heavy firepower, assault, auxiliary, and sniper capabilities, so there is a certain tacit understanding in itself.

When the legion is established, one battleship is definitely not enough. Although there is no need to worry about where to get the battleship, the operators of the battleship must be supplemented. The four people on the bridge serve as supplements to the battleship, and they can directly enter the mission with the skeleton team. Even if tasks of corresponding difficulty will bring them some trouble, they are more likely to survive without any danger.

But if possible, Xiao Ran would certainly be willing to remove one person from the SMS and replace him with someone who is also in the SMS. But he didn't have a powerful pilot in his hands. A pilot with the ability to defeat macos with a single aircraft. The aircraft he piloted was worse than the VF-25 fighter. Just think about this man's driving skills. Perhaps they were better than today's Xiao Ran shouldn't be too generous.

Although Xiao Ran had already thought of the people to recommend, he still wanted to talk to them in person. After all, each mission world is not a tourist place. Each mission may represent an inescapable battle. They still need to refer to their own opinions whether they are willing or not.

It wasn't until Luo returned from Lao Luo that everyone went to the Prometheus base, which was currently empty except for a portal and a legion center building. The entire base looked so desolate inside and outside. There was not even a sign or a person to look at the door and put on a facade. But even so, Xiao Ran and others' mood was not affected in any way, and they entered happily. In the legion base.

"This is our legion base, although there is basically nothing now." Xiao Ran also came to the base of the Burning Legion for the first time. Looking at the base in a steel clearing, he also smiled helplessly at everyone: " But once you have the battle merit points and materials, it will be very simple to establish it.”

At present, Xiao Ran does not have many battle merit points. After establishing the legion, there are only more than one million battle merit points left. If he wants to strengthen so many people, it is simply impossible. The military merit points of the legion's construction are of little use, and the combat merit points of the new machine body have not been calculated yet.

After Xiao Ran's words fell, everyone turned their heads to Luo in an instant. Countless pairs of eyes stared at Luo, which made him feel a little nervous. He scratched his hair and giggled: "I know, I know, it's worth the military merit." Leave the matter to me, I will spend a day to see what the level of the C-class mechas sold in the trading area is, and try to get enough combat points before the mission begins."

Everyone nodded, and Basak patted Luo on the shoulder and said, "I will go with you then."

Xiao Ran also said to Luo: "Fortunately, please hurry up on this matter. You also know that there are so many of us now, and we can only earn so much from combat points. We can't cut costs. We can only find ways to open up the huge gap." , Duoduo earns battle merit points from other participants to meet our consumption and the construction of the legion."

Luo also felt a heavy pressure from Xiao Ran's words. In fact, Xiao Ran didn't need to explain it too clearly. Everyone knew that the current consumption of the entire team was basically borne by Xiao Ran alone, but because the gain in combat points this time was not much , and there are almost no things that are valuable and can be sold, so this rest period makes me feel like I am short of money and embarrassed.

It's not like Xiao Ran hasn't thought about recycling some battleships in the revolutionary machine world, but in Xiao Ran's opinion, the battleships in that world are really too bad, so bad that even Xiao Ran can't look down on them. Such battleships may not exist. If the legion makes an acquisition, then if you accidentally drop it on your hand after recycling it, wouldn't that be a waste of merit points

The legion doesn't like it, and the squad won't buy it. If the warships in the revolutionary machine world are to be fully adapted to the squad mode, they also need to spend combat points to make major changes to the entire battleship, including transforming the hangar and ejection system suitable for MS. Well, this would consume a lot of battle points, so it would be better to just choose one of the warships at the right price. It was precisely because Xiao Ran thought of these that he didn't have any thoughts about the useless warships of the Revolutionary Machine.

In fact, after Xiao Ran established the army and connected the world of Macross F, he already had the most stable source of obtaining huge military merit points, which was to sell a batch of goods at low prices and sell high prices for the territory's specialties. For example, battleships, aircraft, or the special ammunition of that world, med bombs, etc.

You have to pay a certain fee to bring things from the territory to Prometheus, but this fee is actually not high. A new Macross-class battleship only needs to pay 1.5 million to 3 million battle credits. Between points, according to the price of a new Macross-class battleship, it is probably a handling fee of 10% to 20%, but this does not mean that Xiao Ran really only paid that much.

If this new Macross-class battleship is manufactured by the territory, then Xiao Ran still has time to pay. There is definitely no way to build a new Macross-class battleship in one mission cycle. The specific time it will take is not yet certain, and building a battleship Xiao Ran had to pay for the labor costs out of his own pocket. Isn't what he paid equal to the battle points converted from taxes

But there is another way, which is to plunder other forces in the world of Macross F, such as the Earth Unification Army, various other ship groups and border forces. However, the harm this approach will bring in the end is definitely greater than The benefits are even greater. Once it becomes the public enemy of the entire world, then this territory will also become useless.

Although materials can be transported to Prometheus unconditionally without paying any merit points, the cost of mining and exploration are also aspects that Xiao Ran is responsible for. They just say that they will be sent in the form of materials. After Prometheus was built by itself, the tax revenue consumed was naturally negligible, but one thing is for sure, the harvest does not come in vain, no matter whether you pay more or less, you will reap the rewards if you pay.

It's just that in a small place like the legion base, if you want to mass-produce something, the production speed of most products may not be as fast as that of a complete industrial territory, especially when the need is measured. So at some point, you can only choose speed or cheapness. Although there is a balance, to master this balance, you also need Xiao Ran to truly develop the Burning Legion. (~^~)
