Chapter 1049: Chapter 1049
With the completion of the mining industry’s construction, Du You began to focus on his other various buildings. The first building, the Military Training Camp, was already constructed, but Du You frowned as he looked at it.
Military Training Camp (Tier 4):
Omni Repairman Level 5: 2000 people/month, Full price 2 White Crystal Coins/person
Medical Staff Level 5: 1000 people/month, Full price 3 White Crystal Coins/person
Mecha Master Level 5-40: 300 people/month, Full price 20 Red Crystal Coins/person
Warship Control Group Level 5-40: 50 groups/month, Full price 50 Red Crystal Coins/person
Ground Weapon Control Instructor Level 5-40: 500 people/month, Full price 10 Red Crystal Coins/person
"What’s going on here? Why are there fluctuations in levels, and the fact that individuals reaching up to level 40 can be trained just using Red Crystal Coins, what kind of profession is this?"
Du You felt puzzled, while Lin Yucha seemed to be deep in thought, "Master, why don’t we first train some to see how effective they are."
The training numbers were significant, and the prices were low, so after some thought, Du You allowed citizens to enter. What Du You hadn’t anticipated was that citizens who had studied at the academy were cheaper to train than those who hadn’t. Du You didn’t fuss over it; he simply put some into each category to see.
After the training was completed, Du You and his two sisters finally understood the situation. "So that’s how it is, the lowest level 5 refers to their own basic level, all of them start at level 5."
Du You realized that this world’s genetic technology engineering for human enhancement typically only allowed enhancement up to level 5 without causing mutations or other effects. Because the level wasn’t high, the training mainly involved knowledge and skills, which explained the low training costs. As for the upper limit, it referred to the maximum tier of weapons they could operate.
Like a Mecha Master, who could only control mechas, with a limit of level 40, this indicated that they could operate tier 4 mechas. As long as there were no issues with the mecha, they could exhibit full combat capability, equivalent to level 40.
This was certainly a trump card among those of the same level, showcasing the power of a functional building.
As for the Warship Control Group, it wasn’t just one person per group; a group was used to collectively operate a warship, with each group containing a hundred people. The 50 groups each month actually summed up to a total of five thousand people, the highest training quantity among all branches of the armed forces. Of course, most of these people were just assistants, with only a few being core personnel.
The main responsibility of the Ground Weapon Control Instructor was to handle various technological items on the ground, including weapons and other assorted products.
The Omni Repairmen were specialized in repairing everything, and their abilities were stronger compared to the craftsmen trained by the academy. Even if warships were damaged in the future, they would be able to repair them easily.
The role of the medical staff wasn’t significant because, in space wars, once there was an incident, it typically resulted in death, making rescue unnecessary. In Du You’s view, the real role of medical staff was merely to stabilize soldier morale.
His own citizen soldiers didn’t need this, making the medical staff somewhat redundant. However, Du You wouldn’t give up and would still allocate some. Even if the warriors didn’t need them, his citizens might.
"It seems we still need to provide various weapons that can allow them to manifest their abilities."
"Master, the Energy Gathering Cannon has been constructed, but..."
"What’s wrong? Let me see, oh my, it can’t be used." Du You’s eyes widened in disbelief. The construction of the Energy Gathering Cannon wasn’t just about the cannon itself but also included various attached pipelines, making it a complete ground structure.
It could be said that the more constructions there were, the lower the individual cost, but what Du You hadn’t expected was that unlike other territorial defense structures, this device actually required energy consumption. Other territorial buildings mostly absorbed energy from the air to automatically recover, but this was not the case here.
That’s the thing with technological weapons; they might be cheaper individually but have high logistical demands.
Energy Gathering Cannon (Tier 4):
Consolidates energy into a compressed energy cannon with extremely strong penetration power. Attack range 10 miles, interval time 5 seconds, energy consumption 2000 units.
"The power is good, but where am I supposed to find these 2000 units of energy?" Du You was frustrated. He realized that he might need to find a building that could supply energy, but he didn’t have one.
After a day of headache, Du You turned his attention to the last blueprint-manufactured building in his hands.
Air Force Command Center (Tier 4):
Flesh and Blood Giant Bee Level 15: 500/month, Full price 80 Red Crystal Coins/each
Warplanes Level 21-30: 300/month, Full price 100 Green Crystal Coins/each
Blue Light Mecha Level 31-40: 100/month, Full price 100 Yellow Crystal Coins/each
"Flesh and Blood Giant Bee, it can’t be the cannon fodder fighting force of the Blood-colored Empire, could it? It’s useful, but if I actually deploy them, wouldn’t people think I have some connection with the Blood-colored Empire?"
Du You rubbed his temples, thinking depressingly about how there were so many problems.
"Maybe I should inquire at the Professional Association; they probably have similar solutions."
In fact, the Flesh and Blood Giant Bee was a supplementary blueprint Du You had previously obtained during a battle. When building it, they found that this blueprint could be integrated, so he decided to include it, unexpectedly adding a new product.
Although, in this world, the territory’s special feature allowed pets and combat creatures to not just be a tenth of the population and forces but had changed to half, ideally suiting the development of biological weapons.
However, the issue was that biological weapons were a tactic of the Blood-colored Empire, and were easily criticized.
As for the latter two, they were not bad; the warplanes capable of exhibiting up to tier 2 peak combat strength could be controlled by an artificial intelligence system or by trained soldiers, making them an excellent cannon fodder branch of the armed forces.
And the Blue Light Mecha, a very mature type of mecha from the Star Ring Alliance, possessed considerable combat strength. It was a comprehensive type, suitable for various battle environments. Having Mecha Masters, it matched perfectly, allowing the immediate creation of an elite army. At the very least, using them for defense posed no issue.
The issue troubling Du You was that he had run out of ore, and he definitely did not want to buy it at full price.
"If only I had known this would happen, I should have ordered a few transport warplanes." Thinking of the Mobile Miner that could only make one round trip every six days and carried a limited amount each time, Du You realized that his preparations were indeed insufficient.

"Master, no need to worry, just take it step by step, now that we’ve laid a good foundation, it’ll get better. Oh, the academy has sent us a message—they are preparing to collaborate with us."
