Chapter 157, Greenskin Battle Settlement
It was beyond Gu Hang's expectation that Martins suddenly mentioned the secret research institute and the black box.
But his expression is still very stable.
He asked back, "Have you seen it?"
"No, but Schneider went to see it."
"Huh..." Gu Hang let out a long breath, and in his heart he wanted to blow up his own space fighters in advance.
Not to mention doing anything else, housekeeping is also very good!If there is a team of space fighters guarding his research institute, Schneider will not be so easy to get it.
The black box is his second biggest secret after the system.The level of secrecy there is very high. Under normal circumstances, no one can approach it, and anyone who does not listen to the warning will be killed.
But... as I said, it's normal.A master like Schneider is obviously not normal.Wearing power armor and a pitch-black burqa, he sneaked inside at night, his huge body moved without making a sound, and the speed was very fast. Such a master managed to sneak in, and saw everything , what is the solution?
You can't expect those servitors to guard against the Space Marines, that's not realistic.
In the absence of sufficient security forces, this kind of thing is impossible.
As for the current question from Martins...
Gu Hang sighed, and said: "Martins Chapter Commander, we are partners, so I don't want to find any reason to deceive you. Please don't ask where these manufacturing machines come from, I can only say , I have my secret, can you understand this?"
Martins was silent.
secret?
When he heard this word, he instinctively felt something was wrong.
Is it a good thing that a planetary governor has some dark secrets?The black box manufacturing machine itself is indeed not illegal. On the contrary, this kind of super technological product from ancient times is the treasure that the human empire has been tirelessly seeking in the entire universe.
But precisely because it is so precious, why should an ordinary, even a bit desolate planetary governor own it?
More than one.
Gu Hang chuckled and continued: "I really can't tell you where these black box manufacturing machines come from. But please believe me, my belief in the emperor and my loyalty to the empire are extremely firm. You are angry Xiaoxing, it is right next to my government and my city, you can keep your eyes open to see if there is any dishonest business here."
"We are destroying the cultists who are entrenched in the cities, we are destroying the green-skinned aliens that have emerged on the planet; we are building our cities and factories, and we are recovering those lands that can be called traitors. All of this is In order to ensure that the entire planet remains loyal, in order to be able to better pay taxes to the empire."
"Everything I do is completely in line with the requirements of the empire for a planetary governor. Even, I think I can do better than most of the planetary governors."
Gu Hang emphasized his loyalty, using what he did on this planet during this time to prove it.
After hearing these words, even Martins had to nod.
If there is something wrong with Gu Hang, then there must be serious evidence, right?You can't just talk about things with a black box, it's not illegal to have a treasure.
To be honest, Martins did not see any traces of depravity, corruption, or disloyalty under Gu Hang's influence.
Speaking of this, Martins also had to calm down his face: "Your Excellency, I don't doubt your loyalty, it's just..."
He didn't know what to say anymore.
But Gu Hang followed his words and started to talk: "I just feel that the origin of these black boxes is unknown, and that I might be deceived and seduced by some mysterious corrupt forces?"
Martins didn't speak anymore, which was his tacit consent.
Gu Hang said with a smile: "Then as I said before, just wait and see."
Martins stared deeply at Gu Hang, and said, "I will watch over you, Your Excellency the Governor."
"Hahaha!" Gu Hang laughed loudly, frankly, "Then it's a deal."
After saying that, Gu Hang suppressed his smile and turned serious: "However, Commander Martins, I hope you can help me keep this matter a secret."
"You understand the preciousness of the black box manufacturing machine, and you also understand how much trouble I will encounter if the news spreads that Fu Xiaoxing has more than one black box manufacturing machine among the stars."
"Chapter Commander, you need to understand that we are closely connected. The development of Star Fury is closely related to the reconstruction of the warband. The black box is not only a sharp tool for me to build the entire planet, it is also a tool for Phoenix to rebuild. The key factor. This news should never be leaked out, what do you think?"
When talking about this, Gu Hang had a sincere attitude.
Martins still had to admit that Gu Hang was right.
When the fate of the battle group is already bound to the development of the planet, what reason does he have to sell this news?
He even remembered what Gu Hang said when he persuaded him to stay with the battle group on Nu Xiaoxing.
At that time, Governor Gu boasted that he would build the entire planet into a casting world.
At that time, he felt that it was just Gu Hang's fanfare and bragging.But now it seems that people really have the capital to realize it.
No wonder, before he died, Schneider would say such words to make him firm his will, stop wavering, and stand by Governor Gu's side.
I was really too indecisive.At the beginning, Schneider didn't like Governor Gu, but after seeing the black box, he kept the secret in his stomach, and even changed his mind, hoping that the war group would cooperate with the Governor.
But I was shaken...
He smiled wryly, and said to Gu Hang: "I will keep the secret for you, Your Excellency, the future reconstruction of the battle group needs your help very much."
"Don't worry, I won't forget the phoenix's outstanding contribution to the safety of Star Fury. The gene seed implantation equipment needed by the battle group will be ready soon."
...
After seeing off Martins who was full of worries, Gu Hang also heaved a sigh of relief.
In fact, he wasn't too worried that Martins would tell the matter after he knew the secret of the black box.Such a sincere exchange with him, just hope that the chapter leader will not be confused.
As long as the head is not confused, when the fate of the battle group is bound to the development of the planet, even if it is based on his own interests, he should not sell the planet.
But now, since Martins has made a guarantee and commitment, there is nothing to worry about.
Without thinking about it any more, Gu Hang continued to act according to his established plan, going to the underground pre-war research institute where the space fighters fought to the death.
When he arrived, the place was already under the control of the soldiers of the Extinguishing Wind Brigade. The soldiers also made an in-depth investigation to ensure the safety of the inside, and marked the general functions of each different room and area.
Further exploration, and even excavation of the research materials inside, is not something that the big soldiers can do.
Gu Hang has already sent a letter to Wei Xingcheng's secret research institute, asking Wu Jiarong to bring someone over to have a look.If the value of the research materials here is indeed very high, the lady whose level has actually been raised to the level of a mechanical priest will stay here for a while; if the value is average, then just leave a few ordinary technicians to do archaeology.
And this time, Gu Hang came here in person, not because of the technical materials that may be hidden in this research institute.
He just wanted to know the historical records about why there were green skins on Fury Star.
It's not to satisfy curiosity, it's just the requirement to hang on the [Event] panel.
It was not difficult to get what she wanted to know, and soon he found some simple records.
It turned out that in the pre-war era, this was a biological research institute, employed by the planetary government.
They asked someone to bring in a living green leather artisan technician, trying to study the biological form of green skins, how their brains grow, and why they can create such special green skin technology.
They have some research results, but not critical, most of them are just theoretical things.
However, just when they were about to destroy the experimental materials, a war broke out, and the place was quickly captured.
After activating the comprehensive blockade of the laboratory, there is no need to worry about being breached by the Chaos traitors, but this place has not been opened for a long time.
There is no record of what happened later, but Gu Hang can probably guess it.
After all, after such a long time, the security system may no longer be able to support it, and this is a place where scavengers and adventurers will explore.For some reason, the research institute was reopened, and the sealed experimental specimen, that is, the green leather craftsman technician was released, which is also possible.
No wonder, this greenskin tribe will develop faster.
Starting from a craftsman from a space greenskin tribe that can cross the star sea, this greenskin tribe cannot be regarded as a pure start from scratch.
Although the environment was not suitable and there was only an old orc at the beginning, ten years after being dug out, a powerful greenskin tribe stubbornly emerged here.
Gu Hang could even imagine, without himself, how far this green-skinned orc clan would develop after they completely conquered Garbage Town, massacred and enslaved the 30 million people there?Especially after leaving the tower ruins, a place that is not suitable for the growth and development of green skin spores, and going to a place with abundant water, relatively fertile land, and even living people as waste, their number may decrease in a short time. , began to grow explosively.
At that time, I have to deal with it, but it will not be a tribe of green-skinned orcs with a scale of tens of thousands.
And as long as the number increases by three to five times, and their technological level far exceeds that of the original orcs, the trend of green skins raging the entire planet will be unstoppable.
With Nu Xiaoxing's current virtues, how can he withstand the crazy growth and development of several 10 green skins?
It can only be said that fortunately this worst case did not happen.
...
After Gu Hang figured out the information about the origin of the angry owl star's green skin, in the [Event] panel, the second stage of the [Green Skin Threat] event was completed.
The so-called important information, which was a periodic reward, also lay obediently in the panel, and he could get it as long as he had a thought.
Before that, however, he was first attracted by another message.
The entire war against the green-skinned orcs finally came to the settlement page.
In the past, there were more than one battles going back and forth, but there was no battle settlement data in the system interface.
At that time, he had guessed that those battles would probably not be counted separately, but would be merged into the whole big battle of [Green Threat].He will not be rewarded until the entire battle is over.
And now, his conjecture seems to be true.
[Slight advantage, get 2189 gift points]
[Total loss 9144, 37823 eliminated, 0 captives]
[Garbage Town Militia (Allied Forces): 3447 losses, 217 eliminated]
[Governor Legion: 5697 losses, 15022 eliminated]
[Phoenix Battlegroup (Allied Forces): Loss 2, Elimination 230]
[Imperial Navy (Allied Forces): 0 loss, 22354 eliminated]
...
2189 gift income points!
Seeing this number, Gu Hang had only one thought in his mind: It's better to fight the war to get money faster!
It's just a pity that counted as his exact kills, there were only more than 5000.
The item about the militia in Trash Town can be ignored. It is estimated that before the major adaptation of Trash Town, the adventurers there were counted as allies and not regarded as his troops.Anyway... the militiamen in Trash Town at that time were really rubbish. More than 3000 people died before they achieved more than 200 victories, which had little impact.
The exchange ratio of the space warriors was really fierce. With the number completely at a disadvantage, they not only exchanged one for one hundred, but also included the orc warlord who was the supreme leader of the orc tribe.If it appeared on the frontal battlefield and slaughtered ordinary soldiers, it might kill hundreds of human soldiers.
However, their overall number is small, and the kills are not too many, and the results of the battle can also be ignored for the time being.
The most important thing was the Imperial Navy's 'Quintet', which killed more than [-] greenskins in a full round of orbital bombing.
This victory will not be counted on Gu Hang's head, let alone provide him with gifts and rewards.
But that's also very important.
Without the [-] greenskins killed by the orbital bombing, if Gu Hang's troops were to advance head-on, the price he would have to pay would be enormous.
He can't take the risk of ruining the victory of the entire battle for the gift points he can get by killing the enemy.
Besides, even these 2000-plus points of gifts are already very satisfying.
Counting the previous balance, the gift points in Gu Hang's hands now have reached 3079 points!
At this point, he was determined.
After having so many gift points, many of Gu Hang's ideas can finally be implemented.
The building system that has never been developed before can now be built with money, especially the Faithful Academy that he has been thinking about.
I have been hesitant to exchange the Star Warrior Gene Seeds that were too expensive. Now that I have Fuyu's gift points, I can exchange them to test the waters.The Rogue Trader he contacted brought him a few sets of Star Warrior Power Armor during the trip. He was finally experimental, so he took a look at a few of his own Star Warriors.
He can also continue to work hard on the technology system, expand the technology level of the territory, and develop a few more industrial lines.Every technology extracted before has played an effect.
In short, with enough gift points, he can do a lot of things.
