Relying on the large amount of intelligence Edward had collected from the Wanjie Market over a long period of time, combined with the relevant information provided by the system, Yang Tianyi easily summarized several key points and formulated a preliminary plan for the group's next promotion actions.
First of all, to upgrade the level of a time traveler from level three to level four requires one million system points and defeating the opponents competing for the spot. When the upgrade is completed, the two of them will no longer be the "low-level time travelers" mentioned in the intelligence, but It is an "intermediate time traveler".
As for the difference between the two, the answer given by the system is that after becoming intermediate time travellers, the two will gain the ability to travel to other Wanjie market divisions, which means that the group's sphere of influence can also follow their footsteps. A more complex world.
According to Edward's guess, the scale of the Wanjie Market division where Qunxing Group is currently located should not be large. This is not difficult to draw from the demand and number of customers - although there have always been people in the streets and alleys of the market. There are many fellow travelers whose faces cannot be seen clearly, but very few of them are willing to become customers of the group.
Do they not need arms and weapons? Regarding the emergence of this situation, Yang Tianyi believes that there are only two possibilities. Either the technological level of the world where these travelers are located is not much different from that of the Star World, and the other party does not need to purchase high-tech weapons from the Wanjie Market, or they are in their respective worlds. Things were not going well, and there was no extra points or energy left to fight for hegemony.
Although the former is not impossible, based on Edward's intelligence, he believes that at least 90% of the world's technological level or comprehensive strength in the Wanjie Market is not as good as the stars. Even so, most time travelers can only survive by relying on the special abilities issued by the Administration. Their inherent shortcomings have destined them to be completely excluded from such high-risk work as world conquest.
Secondly, Yang Tianyi and Edward are contestants who are about to join the promotion battle, and their systems also revealed some information about the permissions of the time travellers. Unlike low-level time travelers who can only earn points by buying and selling goods in the trading market, mid-level time travelers can join the management council of the market district where they are located.
In other words, as long as a time traveler can cross the gap from level three to level four, he will become a management member of the Wanjie Market and enjoy privileges that many low-level personnel are extremely coveted, such as modifying the trading rules of the current market division, Spend a huge amount of points to forcibly uncover the masks of low-level travelers and obtain their world information, etc.
However, corresponding to power, there are naturally responsibilities that mid-level and high-level time travelers need to bear, which is to fight on behalf of their divisions when time travelers from other market divisions come to provoke or declare war, and drive out those enemies who disrupt order. paradise, and even launched a counterattack to take the opponent's partition as their own.
"System, I remember you told me before that the Administration does not encourage time travelers to fight with each other, but these rules seem to tell us that murder and arson are the best sources of wealth. Do you have anything to explain about this? ?”
Not surprisingly, Yang Tianyi's question was not answered directly. He was only told that the administration did not want disputes between low-level time travellers, but mid-level and high-level time travellers were not included in this.
As the saying goes, those who are capable live there. It is already difficult for most time travelers to make a living. It is indeed unkind to ask them to risk their lives for some illusory things.
Regarding this seemingly reasonable statement, Edward, who had been accustomed to power struggles among nobles since he was a child, had no other attitude except to sneer at it.
As his father, the former Duke of the West, Oronzius, said, "As long as the situation develops to the extent that it concerns the ownership of the land and slaves under their rule, the greedy nobles will use the most vigorous energy and cleverness in their lives. Their minds are invested in it, and these bloodless wars often end with the death of a few people."
"After the dispute ended, the nobles either gained a lot or lost everything, but for the latter's land and slaves, they just changed to an extortionate master. The nobles will always be nobles, and the slaves will always be slaves."
"A bloodless war is still a war."
"Edward, as the only descendant of the Hughes family, I am often worried about your extraordinary intelligence. If you are a mediocre heir, the army of the West will protect you for life, but your eyes tell me your The future won’t stop here, so I need your guarantee, no, a promise!”
"No matter whether the future of the Hughes family is brilliant or not, you must protect your mother and wife, because they are the most important people in your life; do not turn against your loyal ministers, because there are some things that only they can do for you. It is done; and it shall not chill the hearts of your best friends, for they will stand with you when you are down.”
"Son, as a father and not a duke, I have many, many more things I want to say to you."
"..."
"Father, I wonder if you are happy and proud of me now..."
As if remembering the warm fireplace and comfortable sofa beside him during the night chat in the castle, Edward narrowed his eyes slightly, but relaxed after a moment. He fulfilled the promise he made to his father many years ago and did not abandon his partners who had helped him a lot. Of course, there are also reasons why he wants to stay.
Seeing that the people around him were a little distracted, Yang Tianyi waved his hand, and in a serious tone explained to Haaland, Ramsey and others who were participating in the online meeting what he thought was the most noteworthy point in the promotion battle. Expeditionary force planning.
"According to the system, although there are rare cases where the two parties participating in the promotion do not need to have a direct conflict and can achieve promotion by completing tasks, I do not think that we will encounter such a small probability event, so all arrangements for the war are It has to be done to the highest specification.”
"Every team participating in the promotion competition is allowed to bring a war fortress larger than the size of the portal into the battlefield world. Once this fortress is completely destroyed, whether it is destroyed by the enemy or by the indigenous forces of the battlefield world If it is destroyed, the system will determine that the party that lost the fortress failed to advance."
Speaking of this, Yang Tianyi paused, casting his searching gaze on the holographic projection of Harland, the group's CEO, and then continued: "Very simple and easy-to-understand rules, but equally intriguing. Considering that the administration did not require defeat, The war fortress of the other side must be destroyed by the victorious side, and vigilance against the indigenous forces is also very necessary."
"Of course, if the Group Engineering Department can complete the tasks I assigned them on time, then I dare say that we will be invincible from the beginning of this war."
Harland, who is also the head of the engineering department, smiled slightly after hearing the affirmation from the chairman, and then displayed a renovation plan for the Spirit Star Spaceport in the center of the conference room in the form of a holographic projection. It had been a long time since Yang Tianyi's last visit to the spaceport at this time, so even if they only took a cursory look at the projection, everyone present could see many changes visible to the naked eye.
Since the second phase expansion project of the spaceport is still in progress, one corner of the four-pointed star that was originally scheduled to take several months to complete is now only a rough prototype and has no practical use until the engineering ship installs various functional modules and external armor on it. But this still does not affect the fact that it is a natural war fortress.
As long as a few high-power ion thrusters are installed at the locations reserved in advance when construction starts, this spaceport, which should have maneuverability in the original plan, can perfectly undertake the logistics support and other tasks of this expedition, and the space port Several small shipyards and robot production lines have been completed in the station to ensure that when some unexpected situations occur, the group can respond calmly.
And compared with the length of the Javelin-class frigate, which is just over two hundred meters, the height and width of the Spirit Star Spaceport, which is more than two kilometers, are obviously more intimidating. From the perspective of the confident Haaland, I am afraid that most people will lose the will to fight as soon as they see the edge of the spaceport rising slowly from the horizon, right?
Relying on the high proportion of mechanical workers in the space station and the various scarce resources provided by the mining base of the Spirit Star, the Star Hub expects that the several ion thrusters required to move the space station will be completed soon. This period of time will just allow Edward to lead the productivity The underdeveloped Xius Empire is well prepared for expeditions to other worlds so that it will not become the weakest link in the group's armed forces.
"Okay, everyone must have a clear understanding of their missions. But there is one more thing that you need to pay attention to. The vanguard of this expedition plan will be provided by the Hughes Empire of Lord Edward. On the one hand, it is to check the empire. On the other hand, the Changsheng Army has obtained modern equipment and training to improve its combat capabilities. On the other hand, it also aims to confuse the enemy and make it misjudge the group's strength."
After Harland and Minister of War Ramsay, who was eager to mobilize troops, left the meeting, Yang Tianyi turned his head and glanced at Edward, who was hesitant at hand. He knew in his heart that the other party was worried that the poor performance of the Changsheng Army would lead to a defeat in the battle.
In order to prevent one of his own generals from maintaining a good attitude before the war, he patted the other party's shoulder and said comfortingly: "This promotion war group will go all out, except for the escort ships that are inseparable in the world of stars. , naval forces, including all Sparrow-class armed transports, will follow the spaceport to join the expedition."
"With this powerful force as the backing, I believe that the soldiers of the Imperial Immortal Army will not let us down. Moreover, even if the enemy is stronger than we imagined, the superior army and navy will not let them down." Too proud for too long.”
"As I promised before, this is a war that is destined not to fail and will not allow failure. We just need to execute it step by step according to the plan."
"What will greet us in the end will undoubtedly be a hearty victory."
First latest.
