Astral Ants

In the Aquamarine star system, Longbai only does two things every day: replenishing the ant nest with tiny ants; and testing various small animals in the wild jungle to observe the effect of the blessing.

Soon I became familiar with the skills.

With the help of the intelligence brain, I have figured out the rules for how the blessing works: [Use the momentum of the world around you to cause the greatest damage to the target with the least amount of force]

Longbai continued the test and selected a thriving jungle, sending blessings to all life within a radius of ten kilometers, from ordinary fish, birds and insects to eagles, hawks, tigers and leopards at the top of the food chain, without exception.

The lives in the nearby mountains and forests seemed to be summoned by an invisible force and migrated into the 'blessing experimental area', promoting and accelerating the effectiveness of the blessing.

In just over a day, all the blessed lives died for various reasons that seemed reasonable and in line with the laws of nature.

The most amazing thing is,
After the blessing took effect, the migrating creatures settled down in the experimental area. The jungle was still full of vitality and life was flourishing, as if nothing had happened.

If you don't look carefully, it's hard to tell that millions of lives have just died abnormally here.

...

After a large number of experiments on ordinary life, Longbai carefully upgraded and secretly tested it with specialized ants.

Some rules were quickly summarized.

The blessing of the star god is fatal to ordinary life; to the specialized ants in the star realm, it is usually various accidental injuries, but it cannot be fatal; to the half-star realm Zerg warriors, it may cause minor injuries; to the planetary realm Zerg warriors, it is almost ineffective.

Capacity strength needs to be improved.

There are three ways to improve this kind of alien ability outside the ten series: the first is training and perception; the second is meditation and strengthening; the third is combining it with other abilities.

Longbai tried to combine it with other abilities and found that it was highly universal and naturally compatible with all abilities with dark attributes, such as Life Tide, Frostbite Remnant, Burning Wind, Dead Water State, etc.

When combined with these abilities, it is equivalent to adding a layer of "Star God's Blessing" effect to the attack.

There is another beneficial combination.

After many optimizations and improvements, Longbai's "Soul of Art" has a high concealment ability and ultra-long control distance. You can attach "blessings" to the "Soul of Art" and silently attack the target from a long distance.

The release forms of the Star God's blessing vary, but the final effect is the same: it brings bad luck to the target, and the power affects the laws of the universe. In an unexpected but seemingly reasonable way, it causes damage to the target or even death.

Long Bai spent two years studying and pondering, but his intelligent brain could only analyze the surface rules and was unable to understand the deeper principles of how the power works.

The evolutionary level is not high enough, and the understanding of the laws of the universe is insufficient to truly control this power.

Let's put it aside for now and focus on comprehending the three major system laws and abilities: ancestral divine body, ancestral divine power, and adaptive evolution.

...

Longbai spent thirty years replenishing the Ocean Blue star system with a sufficient number of tiny logistics ants.

Return to Xianglan Mountain,
The main nest of Xianglan Mountain, as well as the branch nests in the star systems at the end points of the royal jelly trade-related trade routes centered on the Bauhinia star system and the Ironwood star system, are replenished with small and micro logistics blue ants in turn.

After a busy circle,

I returned to Xianglan Mountain again, and within two years, Sishu and Xia Li arrived.

meet and greet,

Long Bai asked casually, "Isn't Zi here?"

Four Numbers could not hide their gloating and replied, "Zi will not be able to come out in the short term."

Longbai asked with concern: "How are things? Are the bosses Zi and Lanying safe and sound?"

Four: "Not bad. Lord Yiwei is also an old Lord who has seen many ups and downs. He is emotionally stable and didn't say much. Seeing that Zi got the dusk fruit by himself and checked his strength, Lord Yiwei was quite happy."

"Oh--"

Long Bai knew that there wouldn't be any major problems, so he went straight to the point and asked, "In that case, then, what about President Bai Wei's white crystal fruit..."

Four Numbers: "The Winged Overlord said that he has time to go to the Red Robin Star and ask the White Crystal Divine Tree. If nothing unexpected happens, this will be accomplished."

"That's good. Thank you for your hard work, President Four."

Long Bai was polite and explained, "President Bai Wei is waiting for the White Crystal Fruit to evolve."

Xia Li asked, "Where is Chief Molan?"

"It manages the azure star system and guides the young warriors in developing their abilities."

Long Bai answered and took out a pile of stone slabs and placed them in front of Si Shu and Xia Li.

"For nearly 20,000 years, the Boshuwan Chamber of Commerce has managed the detailed income and expenditure accounts of the Xuanling 1, 2, and 3 star systems. The two presidents, please check them."

"it is good."

"Let's see."

Sishu and Xia Li used their mental power to scan and check.

When they left, they arranged for younger members of the tribe to help manage the territory.

The God-given seeds produced were delivered regularly as agreed. In the fifteen thousand years since I was away, many of the God-given seeds had grown and evolved to the half-star level after being sown.

Sishu and Xia Li came mainly to settle accounts.

After checking, there is no problem with the accounts.

The fourth number needs to pay 6880 billion.

Xia Li needs to pay 4120 billion.

"Longbai Ant King, shall I transfer the original crystal to you?"

"No. Just transfer it to Black Birch."

"Is Black Birch here?"

"Organizational work in the stellar system of the cyclops."

"Then, let's go together? We can also visit the Queen Bee and the others."

"of course can."

Long Bai readily agreed, and then changed the subject, saying, "But don't worry, there is something else. President Sishu, President Xia Li, I told you before that Molan and Zi wandered around the universe and found a relic, and dug up a complete set of well-preserved third-level mothership drive systems. There is also a 'Star God Ao' who digitized his soul memory and is good at technology..."

Number Four: "Yes! Star God Ao! Where is Chief Longbai?"

Xia Li then asked: "Would you like to show us?"

"Of course it's convenient. I'm currently in the Ocean Blue Star System, helping to train young metal-type technological warriors. I'll take you on a tour."

Long Bai continued, "We plan to purchase materials ourselves, repair and reorganize the survival mothership, and ask Chief Tiebin for help. We plan to build the base in the Xiange star field."

"However, the influence of the Wart-Knock-Armored Tribe is also limited. It is inconvenient for a small chamber of commerce like ours to communicate with the top chambers of commerce that operate mining stars and purchase materials. But if the two presidents, Sishu and Xia Li, can come along..."

"understand!"

"Small thing!"

"We'll just follow along."

"If necessary, we can also help to act as a guarantee."

"There is also the issue of the navigation number after the mothership is built..."

"Small thing!"

"Captain Longbai, have you forgotten that I live in the Xiange star system, and I am also a student of the Xiange Lord. Not to mention far away, in the Xiange star system, I can help solve general problems!"

Sishu and Xia Li agreed with a promise.

"Thank you both in advance!"

Longbai raised his claw and pointed downwards, and took the initiative to say: "The core components removed from the Pei Diernan Luo Ao Xingshen are all in Xianglan Mountain. President Sishu, President Xia Li, do you want to take a look?"

"Of course!"

"Let me see for myself!"

Sishu and Xia Li stood up.

Visit the underground treasure house together.

Next, head to the Hanging Bell 1, 2, 3 star systems, and the Ocean Blue star system.

Return to Xianglan Mountain,
Long Bai reunited with Bai Wei and his party, and together they headed for the Xiange star field to visit leaders such as Tie Bing of the Wartock tribe, presenting them with titanium sand as gifts and asking them to introduce them to the major clans that operated the mines.

Insects such as lupins, grass dragons, junipers, and white mulberry have been moving around for many years and have been encountered many times.

In addition, the two Holy Butterfly Warriors, Sishu and Xia Li, acted as guarantors.

The deal was settled very smoothly.

Everything is finalized.

Longbai leases three areas of land in the Tiannanxing star system.

Gui Shan, Xing Yun Bai, Zi Sha, and Lin Li led a thousand metal warriors from the Chamber of Commerce to move in. Under the guidance of Xing Shen Ao, they set about building a production factory.

The next step is to build a survival mothership and undertake star system construction projects.

Longbai and Molan also need to plan to evolve into the Yao Realm and migrate to the third-level source star system to settle down.

The trade in Force food can continue to expand, and the third and fourth interstellar trade routes centered on the secondary source star systems need to be opened up.

The business of Xianglan Chamber of Commerce is growing bigger and bigger.

The overall strength of the Chamber of Commerce warriors needs to be improved once.

The cypress tree sits on Xianglan Mountain.
Organize the Chamber of Commerce's planetary warriors to travel to the White Crystal Galaxy for the second time, collect divine fruits, enrich their abilities, and prepare to evolve to the star realm.

...

...

Bai Wei was also very busy.

Directly under the jurisdiction of Fengyan Constellation, Fengyan Star Region Business Center: Giant Disk Star System
Trichosanthes star,
North 1002 District specializes in Star Spider and Starship transactions.

Luoli Chamber of Commerce branch is stationed there.

Bai Wei led Hong Tao and Du Dou and went straight to the president's office on the third floor.

Vice President Caowu on the second floor was quick to notice the movement and ran up. "Bai Wei!"

"President Bai Wei!"

"President Nanaba!"

"Hearts, poisonous beans."

"Vice President Caowu!"

When meeting and greeting someone, the emphasis is on the word "deputy".

Caowu was displeased. He raised his claws and smacked Dudou's head twice, asking, "Where's Zhuban? Where's Tianjie? Why did you bring this guy here?"

"hiss--"

Poison Bean said, "Both Pillar Spot and Sky-Spot are here. We need to purchase Star Spiders and Starships in bulk. They should go to the next door Chamber of Commerce, ask around, compare prices and after-sales service, and then decide which one to choose."

"Heh~heh~"

"Are you bluffing me?"

Caowu raised his paw and made two more bangs, then his expression became serious.

Bai Wei's group of spiders are really capable. They are developing rapidly and earning more and more.

The key point is that the Baiwei Chamber of Commerce is a pure Flame Spider Chamber of Commerce, which has a huge demand for Star Spiders. Most of the raw crystals earned from trading are spent on purchasing Star Spiders.

The average consumption is over 100 billion per 10,000 years, and it is constantly increasing.

A top-ranked client.

The Star Spider trading market was highly competitive, and in this giant star system, there was a real possibility that it could be snatched away by other chambers of commerce.

Caowu has been a traveling merchant all his life, so he is very perceptive.

Poison Bean's joke was not entirely a joke. I'm afraid they had discussed the relevant issues in private and had the idea of ​​changing the purchasing association in their minds...

Qi Ye also heard a clue from the joke, and secretly became alert, and asked casually:
"Bai Wei, Hong Tao, Luo Li told me that you went to the Daylight Sea in the Dawn Galaxy to watch the ring battle?"

"Yes. Mainly with friends from the Holy Butterfly Tribe. They have many warriors participating in the war."

"Oh!"

"When did you get in touch with the Saint Butterfly Warriors? Did you meet them on the home planet? Did you meet them through the Dragon Cypress Ant King?"

"Yes. Together with the Dragon Cypress Ant King and the others."

"I heard that the competition this year was particularly fierce, and the Saint Butterfly tribe performed poorly. As a top tribe that rules an entire galaxy and owns the Law Tree, only seven warriors made it into the top three hundred."

"Yes. It's not ideal. Their most capable fighter, a man named Ling, only got 14th place."

"Where are the Dragon Cypress Ant Kings? Did they join the battle?"

"How can an ant king personally fight? Longbai Ant King did not participate in the battle, but just watched the fun. He also traveled to the Dawn and Lizhu star systems along the way."

"Oh--"

"No wonder. We haven't seen any insects in 20,000 years. Are you preparing for a breakthrough?"

"The Longcypress Ant King has this plan."

"What about you?"

"I have some ideas, too. But I'm too busy at work, and I don't have the time to calmly comprehend my abilities..."

"We are all still young, and our careers are the most important thing. We can take some time off to grow and evolve."

"What about the royal jelly trade? Isn't it time to expand further?"

"Of course. So, that's why we came here."

The insects chatted for a while, and naturally, the topic shifted to the transaction.

Qi Ye asked tentatively, "Or Tianqing 43? How many do you want?"

"Let's not talk about this for now..."

Bai Wei briefly narrated: "Twenty thousand years ago, Long Bai and Mo Lan discovered and successfully excavated a relic of technological civilization from the old universe era, a third-level survival mothership that had not yet been completely scrapped..."

Bai Wei briefly described the situation, and then said:
"The price of purchasing raw energy materials in the billions of tons is relatively low, but we need to find a way to transport them. This is a good opportunity for our Baiwei Chamber of Commerce to get involved in the field of interstellar freight!"

"In the future, there will be a business associated with contracting star system construction projects. That is, when collecting interstellar materials, we will pick out high-quality metal ores, build an automated purification facility in the mothership, refine iron and heavy metal elements above, and then sell them to the chambers of commerce that operate mining stars, which can make a small profit. This involves the transportation of bulk goods and the transportation of starships that are separated from the star network."

"In the long run, we will expand our Force food trade and make it stronger, reaching the level of Sujing. There are fewer Force plants in Sujing, but Sujing warriors need a richer variety of Force food to evolve and grow. Once the scale of the trade becomes larger, it will be necessary to circulate, exchange and complement across star regions. At that time, there may be hundreds of billions or even trillions of goods to be delivered together. We must have a trustworthy, professional team that specializes in freight work."

"Poison Bean has been obsessed with star spiders and starships since he was a child. I plan to give him a chance to show his abilities. I plan to invest some original crystals and try to form an interstellar cargo team. Captain Poison Bean, test the waters and hone your skills."

—Cargo team?!

Qiye and Caowu looked at each other.

Strong sense of crisis!
After paying off the last purchase loan, Bai Wei had not purchased Star Spiders for about 18,000 years. I specifically asked Zeqi and Luoli about it. Bai Wei was traveling far away, and the development of the Chamber of Commerce was suspended. She saved all the raw crystals she earned.

Qiye and Caowu had already helped to settle the accounts privately:

It was unknown whether operating the Zero-Level Source Point would result in a loss or profit, but the profit from the Force Food Trade was definitely a steady profit, and it was growing steadily. Bai Wei should have accumulated more than 2500 billion Yuan Crystal wealth in her claws.

This time, we are not only going to purchase a large number of Star Spiders, but also cargo Star Spiders and even cargo starships?

Are you planning to spend all the money in your account?
According to Bai Wei's usual style, does she need to borrow another large sum of money?

This time it’s probably a huge order of 3000 billion to 4000 billion!

Judging from Bai Wei's attitude, combined with the jokes made by Dudou at the beginning, it was clear that she wanted to inquire about prices and compare prices...

Qi Ye asked: "President Bai Wei, according to your description, we first need a cargo Star Spider!"

"Yes!"

Poison Bean answered happily, saying proudly: "What models are there of the 5000 million ton cargo Star Spider? What's the power? What's the price?"

Caowu introduced: "This type of super-large tonnage cargo star spider focuses on being sturdy and having stable and reliable performance, while the shape and appearance are secondary. Therefore, our Luoli Chamber of Commerce has only designed one model series, namely the 'Barbarian Weevil' series. According to the speed, it is divided into 'Short-horned Weevil-50', 'Long-horned Weevil-100', 'Double-horned Weevil-200', and the highest-end 'Barbarian Weevil-300', with corresponding maximum speeds of 55 times the speed of light, 110 times the speed of light, 220 times the speed of light, and 330 times the speed of light."

"According to the transport capacity, it is further divided into 'Short-horned Weevil-50-500', which corresponds to a transport capacity of 500 million tons. 'Short-horned Weevil-50-1000', which corresponds to a transport capacity of 1000 million tons. And so on, the maximum transport capacity is 5000 million tons, which is a behemoth that can only be driven by the warriors of the Sujing."

Qi Ye walked to the backstage, operated the holographic projection, and asked at the same time: "President Bai Wei, Poison Bean, first determine, what speed do you need?"

Bai Wei: "100 times the speed of light is enough."

"Etc., etc!"

Poison Bean quickly raised his paw to stop the shout.

"100 times the speed of light is too slow."

"If you are slow, you will have no competitive advantage in grabbing jobs!"

Poison Bean asked, "How much is the price of the Barbarian Horned Weevil-300-5000 Cargo Star Spider?"

Qiye: "..."

Qiye still quoted: "The Chamber of Commerce's sales guidance price is 2200 billion original crystals."

"too expensive!"

"can not afford!"

Poison Bean asked, "Where's the Savage Horned Weevil-300-3000 Cargo Star Spider?"

Qi Ye: "1800 billion."

Still too expensive...

Poison Bean was unwilling to give in and asked, "Where is the Double-Horned Weevil-200-1000 Cargo Star Spider?"

Qi Ye: "1200 billion."

Qi Ye reminded, "The choice of speed for the Star Spider depends mainly on the purpose. If you are transporting bulk goods such as metal ores to a nearby mining star, 50 times the speed of light or 100 times the speed of light is enough. If you are running around a secondary source point, 100 times the speed of light is enough, and 200 times the speed of light is more than enough. If you are running within a star field, 200 times the speed of light is enough. Generally speaking, 300 times the speed of light is required for cross-star field transportation."

Caowu said: "The freight industry is highly competitive. Freight spiders are expensive to build, but the freight rates are kept very low. Many Flame Spiders are downgraded, driving 50 times the speed of light spiders for short and medium distances, and driving 100 times the speed of light spiders for long distances. For inter-star transport, they use 200 times the speed of light spiders."

Poison Bean looked at Bai Wei and asked tentatively, "President Bai Wei, whom I admire the most, what do you think of the Double-Horned Weevil-200-50 Cargo Star Spider?"

"Poison Bean, don't talk!"

Bai Wei scolded and asked, "What about the cargo starships? How many models are there?"

Qiye replied, "There is also only one model, the Manniu. According to the speed and tonnage, it is divided into the Iron Bull-10-500 model, the Iron Bull-10-1000 model, and so on."

Qi Ye: "This type of large-scale cargo starship is mostly used for transporting interstellar materials. The transportation of bulk metal materials like yours is usually a short distance within 50 light years. When it is transported to the connection point with the star network, it will be taken over by the cargo star spider, so the speed requirement is not high."

Qi Ye: "The maximum speed is only designed to be 50 times the speed of light, and the maximum carrying capacity is only designed to be 5000 million tons. Larger ones need to be customized."

"Of course, the selling price is correspondingly lower."

Qiye said, manipulating the holographic projection to switch and display character data.

According to the speed, it is divided into three models:

The Iron Bull corresponds to 10 times the speed of light.

Taurus corresponds to 30 times the speed of light.

The speed of longicorn corresponds to 50 times the speed of light.

Poison Bean glanced at Bai Wei and saw that it looked serious. He stepped a little further away and asked, "How much is the Tianniu-50-1000 cargo starship?"

Qi Ye: "This is the most expensive one, priced at 320 billion. If you want speed, you can reduce the capacity appropriately. I can give you the Tianniu-50-500 model for 200 billion."

Starships are cheap!

Poison Bean looked at Bai Wei, his eight eyes flashing red: Buy~buy~buy~buy~buy...

Bai Wei ignored the poisonous beans and looked at Hong Tao.

Hong Tao: "The idea of ​​President Qiye and Dudou is more feasible. They pursue speed, appropriately reduce the load of Star Spider and Starship, and build a flexible and fast cargo team..." (End of this chapter)
