Chapter 53 Spending money is like running water
Levi stopped and stopped along the way, constantly trying to use micro-control commands in the battle.
After awakening his psychic powers, his thinking and reaction were much stronger than before. The standard command operations that he could barely perform before can now be performed stably, and he even has some remaining strength.
The only bad thing is that the reaction of his subordinates cannot keep up. The whiteboard captain and crew have limited abilities and can complete simple instructions. However, in micro-control command, he needs to constantly issue some extremely complex instructions based on the actual battlefield conditions and predictions. , sometimes some instructions contrary to the previous one will be issued in a short period of time. At this time, the whiteboard fleet cannot respond in time, which is very fatal in combat.
After several attempts, Levi stopped trying and focused on getting on his way.
He plans to replace a group of captains and crew members after returning to Xilan. They don't need to be too senior, just a green name, and they just need to be able to keep up with the command.
It was easier to come back than it was to go. He knew where was safer from the path he had taken. He remembered where in some galaxies on the way it was safer. He wrote down the coordinates and jumped directly there.
In just a few days, he returned to the human civilization star domain, and made a jump directly back to the legion headquarters.
He reported to Mo Lai that he was back, and then retrieved the modified cruiser from Shi Ying. When he was about to teleport to the Xilan Galaxy through the star gate, he suddenly received a reply from Mo Lai:
"You won't go out this time when you come back, right?"
Levi replied:
"Not for the time being, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing big. The legion will have activities in a few days. This is your first event after joining the legion. Don't miss it."
"Legion activities?"
Li Wei quickly asked:
"Can I know in advance what event it is?"
"It's not certain yet, but it's nothing more than going to the Reaper Legion's influence system to harvest, or blocking the door, or maybe going to fight pirates or rebel camps. There will be a lot of risks, so prepare in advance."
"Of course, you don't have to go, but this will affect your rating within the legion and affect your future promotion."
Levi:.
"I will go, send me a message in advance."
"OK."
Turning off the communication, Levi rubbed his chin, feeling a little excited.
Harvesting and blocking doors, he had seen it before, it was a very exciting corps activity.
Harvesting means going to the enemy legion's sphere of influence to attack the enemy legion players. It mainly attacks the enemy legion players' personal bases, robs the mining ships, and plunders the planetary minerals accumulated in the mines on the planet.
Blocking refers to blocking certain important waterways and engaging in a passionate group PK.
To put it bluntly, harvesting is robbery for welfare, and blocking doors is group PK. The risk is naturally greater when blocking doors.
However, there are also considerable risks in harvesting. You can refer to the previous experience of the 17th Squadron of the Reaper Legion, Ci Xingzhai. He was accidentally caught and the entire army was wiped out, resulting in heavy losses.
Of course, Levi personally hopes to harvest, so that he can better utilize his technological advantages. The seven-level sensor has a detection range of up to one million kilometers. As long as he does not waste, he will be invincible.
But the specific arrangements are not up to him, so he can only hope so.
Shaking his head, he teleported to the Xilan galaxy through the star gate, and immediately sent a message to Lao Ye:
"I'm back to Xilan."
Lao Ye replied within a few seconds:
"I'm here too. The Phantom fighter you ordered is in the warehouse."
"Is there any extra?"
"Yes, how much do you want?"
"A total of 432 aircraft, filling all the hangars."
"You want to modify the hangar cruiser?"
"Yes!"
"Do you want anything else?"
"No more for now."
"Then wait a moment and send me the coordinates."
Half an hour later, two large cargo ships came over to dock with him, receiving and adding a total of 432 level five ghost interceptors to the modified cruiser.
The market price of 432 level-5 Phantom interceptors was 108 million yuan, but Lao Ye gave him a zero and only needed 100 million yuan.
Then he spent about 7 million to purchase the construction materials for two proton launchers, and prepared to use the two proton launcher blueprints on hand to equip them on the cruiser's cannon module.
The money was not enough, so he sold the two remaining proton launchers and another cruiser blueprint to get enough money.
There are 432 level five Phantom Interceptors, totaling 108 million. One set of ships cost a total of 146.2 million stars. If two proton launchers and blueprints are added, the total cost will be as much as 173.2 million. .
And this can only be considered a high-end configuration, not a top-end configuration.
At least the two L-slot main guns are not counted. There are also more powerful neutron launchers in the conventional fifth-level technology, and the battleship has not been modified.
If equipped with two neutron launchers, the highest level five modification will add additional slots, and the additional level five modification fee will cost about 200 million yuan.
In other words, the maximum cost of a cruiser with conventional level five technology is between 360 million and 400 million.
"Outrageous!"
Anyway, Levi doesn't know how to modify. Even if he has extra money in the future, he will mainly modify battleships and the like. Cruisers are just a transitional one. Fully equipped, they are already very good. There is no spare money for modification.
Now my whole body is clean and not a hair is left.
As for the dreadnought battleship, there is nothing we can do for the time being. The demand for this thing is too terrible. God knows when we will be able to save enough. It is better to arm ourselves first.
After counting, there was only one Dreadnought battleship blueprint, three frigate blueprints, one one-star blind box, and one Pioneer Mining Industrial Base blueprint.
"So poor!"
The frigates are not being built for the time being. Anyway, the cannon fodder is enough for the time being.
And in the future, he will not specialize in the Raptor frigate like before. The basic model of Haiyan will also work. They are all cannon fodder anyway.
I thought about it for a while but didn't open it. I just threw it to the auction house and sold it for 1 million stars for others to open. This thing depends too much on luck. If you are unlucky, you will lose blood, and most of the time you won't get anything good.
Then Levi opened the webpage of the crew union, browsed for a while, and hired a blue-quality captain and two green-quality captains from the union to command a frigate and two cruisers respectively. The six frigates had no configuration.
A blue-quality captain's monthly salary is 500,000, and a green-quality captain's monthly salary is 150,000. The two are 300,000. How can such an expensive salary be allocated to a few cannon fodder ships that can be used to block guns at any time? This is not how money is spent.
It is worth mentioning that these blue and green captains are professional captains trained in the Naval Academy's assembly line. They are not the kind of captains and commanders with names. Their wisdom and skills are not as good as those NPCs with names. Even if the qualities of blue name and green name are the same, and the upper limit of this kind of professional captain is blue name, there is no professional captain with purple name.
Then Levi purchased a large amount of materials for making missiles and shells and left Xilan, returned to the Legion headquarters system, and received some tasks in the headquarters Star City to set out to suppress the bandits.
You can't be idle when you're not digging graves or grinding exceptions. You have to find something to do. If you can make some money, it's better. (End of chapter)
