Chapter 1063: Chapter 1063
Looking at the territory’s experience, it was just a little short of reaching tier five, but even this small gap had to be waited out patiently.
Du You wasn’t worried at all because the Star Ring Company would soon help promote him and build up a typical image. Once their promotion was in place, his influence would also expand. By then, his territory would definitely meet the advancement requirements.
"Lord, we have discovered Andaru Ores, and the reserves are not small," Ke Jisi suddenly contacted him one day.
After Du You arrived, he found a strange metallic substance. It was no longer just ores but metals that had been smelted and sent back. Seeing this, Lin Yucha suddenly realized something.
"No wonder the Blood-colored Empire attacked us; it was because of the Andaru Ores."
"You know what this is?" Du You was somewhat ignorant in this regard.
"Of course, these are essential materials for manufacturing high-tier warships, specially used for making engines. With this, our future warship construction can be much cheaper, and it also gives us an excuse to mass-produce warships."
So that was the case; Du You now understood. "In that case, let’s stock up on more. At most, in two days, our territory will be able to upgrade," Du You checked the experience; it was almost enough.
Two days later, with the experience bar full, Du You began the familiar process of burning the stored Crystal Coins to upgrade his territory.
Another day passed, and the territory was successfully promoted to tier five.
Territory: Harry Asteroid (Tier five, Star Ring Grand World)
Size: 10,000 square kilometers
Lord: Du You/Deputy Lord: Ke Jisi
Territory income: 4,000 yellow Crystal Coins per day. Expenditure: 1,000 yellow Crystal Coins per day.
Population: 8,000,000/100,000,000 (Non-combat creatures must not exceed half of the population)
Military strength: 12,895/10,000,000 (Combat creatures must not exceed half of the military strength)
External population: 2,843
Affiliated worlds: None Dıscover more novels at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚫𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚫𝕟𝕖𝕥
Passages: City of Islands, Garden Star, Yao River City
The basic attributes were still the same as before, with the maximum population brutally adding another zero. However, this was meaningless as the population on his Harry Asteroid had already reached eight million, which was a considerable number.
If it weren’t for the large number of civilian buildings supporting them, the Harry Asteroid itself would not be able to sustain such a large population.
As for military strength, the military forces in this world were somewhat special. Ordinary soldiers capable of operating independently counted as one unit of military strength. Mechanical units rated as combat weapons and capable of fighting independently also counted as one unit of military strength.
But for a mecha or spaceship, that’s not just a matter of combat power, it’s necessary to add drivers and logistics personnel, among others, to truly constitute a combat force. Therefore, the number of troops, in reality, has a lot of padding.
However, Du You didn’t care about that and was looking at the nearly completed spaceport; this was the essence of his territory.
With the territory elevated to tier five, his domain started to gain significant fame within a certain area of the Capital. Following that, many people came to place orders, purchasing various technology-type products.
It was relatively easy for Du You to obtain lower-tier blueprints, and then various firearms and breakthrough technology items that were commonly used finally found a market, and his territory began to recover costs.
Two days later, the massive spaceport was constructed. It was the largest structure Du You had ever seen. The entire building stretched to one thousand meters, and if it weren’t for the expansion of the territory’s range, there wouldn’t have been room to build this behemoth.
And with the expansion of the territory, a new round of construction began to swell. A large number of defense weapons and power plants, and even some civilian buildings, started to increase in number, continuing to enhance the potential and strength of Harry Asteroid.
What puzzled Du You was that despite being on guard all this time, he had yet to notice any enemy approaching. Perhaps he was worried about startling the snake by hitting the grass, Du You never dared to let his guard down.
Escort Ship Model 5, Level 31-40: 50 ships/month, full price 500 Yellow Crystal Coins per ship
Cruiser Model 3, Level 41-50: 10 ships/month, full price 2000 Blue Crystal Coins per ship
One day later, the escort ships and cruisers were manufactured one after another. The escort ships were very similar to those Du You had seen before, but they were somewhat stronger, controlled by their own pilots to exert peak combat effectiveness.
Moreover, after testing the tough defensive shell himself, Du You found that it wasn’t easy for his attacks to shatter it. The power of these escort ships was almost on par with the warships that had attacked his territory last time.
Keep in mind, these were just escort ships. Once fifty escort ships were built, he would be able to form a fleet.
The cruisers left Du You even more stunned. "My God, a twelve-hundred-meter warship, and the entire spaceport is only a thousand meters long." If it weren’t for the building’s special function, Du You would have doubted how it was even constructed.
As tier five warships, the cruisers’ combat power was not to be underestimated. Du You himself couldn’t test them, but according to the data provided by the academy, the cruisers’ combat power was definitely stronger than that of an average tier five expert. Among tier five Professionals, probably only the elite could take one down in a one-on-one fight.
The first batch produced only ten ships, which Du You had planned to keep for himself. However, the academy insisted on purchasing two of them, and Du You knew that because the technological division of Capital University was relatively weak, there was an urgent need to enhance its own strength.
After a series of negotiations, Du You obtained a defensive structure for his territory from Capital University. The price was that out of the initial ten warships, five had to be handed over to the academy, and it was hard to say who got the better deal.
Sun Wheel (Tier 4): 1000
Gathers energy to form a barrier to protect the territory; different barriers can fuse with each other, strengthening the defense. Base defense power level + level + level, all-attribute defense, with electromagnetic protection. Consumes 1000 energy units.
Indeed, the Sun Wheel was the price paid by the academy. At first glance, it was like a disc, a structure looking like a saucer that could rise into the air or land vertically on the ground, not occupying much space.
And when a thousand Sun Wheels were connected together, the defense they formed could temporarily withstand attacks even from tier five. Du You didn’t expect these defenses to completely block enemy attacks; as long as they could prevent the kind of heavy unexpected losses he suffered last time. As for the issue with the five warships, wouldn’t they be restored next month?
With the emergence of warships, the influence of the territory began to surge crazily, both on Earth and in the Star Ring great world. Especially on Earth, where his domain was now receiving more and more business and trade orders.
