Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 864 Harvest!

The bizarre dimensional tunnel was very novel to Lux and Natal Bakilulu, and they looked outside from time to time.

But this journey is relatively short.

After they stepped foot on solid ground again and arrived at the super-dimensional fortress, there was still a trace of unsatisfied look on their faces.

Speaking of which, it’s not surprising.

After all, the Earth where the two of them lived was far from developing key technologies such as superluminal navigation and space jump, deep space exploration and development. Therefore, this could be regarded as the first time for the two of them to personally experience the magic of dimensional jump.

"You'll get used to it later."

He Ming said this with a smile, then moved his gaze to look forward.

No surprises.

It was Lian, the beautiful maid from the Yorozuya, who came to greet them again.

"Sir, congratulations on your victory! These two are the new partners, right? Hello, ladies! I am Lian, the maid of the Yorozuya."

Lian first congratulated He Ming, and then gracefully bowed and greeted Lacus and Natal Bakilulu.

"Hello! Ms. Lian, I am Lacus Klein."

Lux gracefully returned the greeting by slightly lifting the hem of her skirt.

As for Natal Bakilulu, she seemed a little embarrassed. For a moment, she didn't know whether to give a military salute or imitate Lux's skirt-lifting salute.

"Just do it as usual. Natal! Lian is not a stranger."

After being rescued by He Ming, Natal Bakilulu immediately stood at attention and returned the salute.

"Hello! Miss Lian, I am Natal Bakilulu."

"Hello, ladies! Please just call me by my first name."

Lian returned the greeting gracefully again and then turned to look at He Ming.

"Sir, the master and Her Highness Gretel have already prepared everything! Please be ready and follow me."

"Hmm? What's that?"

Lian nodded slightly.

"Yes!"

It seems that it is time to interrogate J. Puppeteer.

Does this require him to go there again?
Confused about this, He Ming looked at his companions.

"Sergei, Lockon, disperse where you are! Move freely as you like! I will notify you to gather after I finish dealing with things!"

"Yes, sir!"

"learn!"

Sergei and Lockon exchanged glances and left together.

And Salamantini understood and invited Lux ​​and Natal Bakilulu.

"How about you two walk around this fortress with me and get familiar with the environment?"

Lux nodded.

"Okay! I'll leave it to you."

"Well, see you later!"

"See you later!"

In the blink of an eye, only He Ming and Lian were left.

"Lian, do you mind if I sit here for a while?"

"No, please help yourself!"

Lian said respectfully, and stood behind He Ming.

"Velos, can you tell me the reward for the mission?"

[Sorry to have kept you waiting! Now, let’s start counting the mission rewards! ]

[In view of the fact that the mission situation has changed many times, the reward standards have also been changed many times. Now, three options are issued to you. ] [First, the fortress will evaluate your current sphere of influence and strength, and give you materials, equipment, or technology that suits your current development as much as possible. ]

[Secondly, the fortress will list a series of materials, equipment and technologies that meet the reward requirements of this mission, and you can choose three items from the list.]

[Third, the fortress will put the technology currently mastered by the fortress into a random space, and let you decide when to open the random space, so as to obtain the technology in the random space. The number of times it can be opened is three.]

[In addition, the battle points included in this mission reward, a total of 100 million battle points, have been issued to your ID account. Please check and confirm as soon as possible. ]

After hearing these three options, He Ming was a little confused.

How is this going?

All along, the settlement has been done directly.

[The reason for the change in the reward delivery this time is that the Fortress captured the second-level member of the Ghost Face Group for the first time. Therefore, the Fortress decided to increase the upper limit of the reward and made some adjustments to the reward range. 】

"Okay! Can you tell me the difference between these three?"

[Yes! For the first item, the fortress will evaluate your current sphere of influence and the surrounding security situation and give you a reward that can help you to the greatest extent possible. The reward includes but is not limited to supplies, equipment and technology.]

[The second item is that you can choose three times from all the rewards within the A-level limit that you can achieve in this mission reward.]

[The third item is to pack all the technologies below the S-level in the fortress and place them in a random space. You can decide when to open it and obtain the items in the currently opened random space. The number of times is three.]

He Ming fell into deep thought.

After a while, he looked at Lian who was standing behind him.

"Sir, please don't embarrass me! I'm just a maid and can't make such an important decision."

Lian smiled, but ruthlessly rejected He Ming's idea of ​​asking for his opinion.

He Ming heard this and shook his head.

"Forget it! Actually, there's a trap here, right? Velos."

[Sir, why do you say that? The rewards provided by the fortress meet the standards and requirements of the mission rewards. There is no such thing as a trap.]

Velos immediately retorted.

He Ming waved his hand.

Judging from Velos' explanation, Velos mentioned the upper limit of the reward item level for the second and third items, but he did not mention the upper limit of the reward item level for the first item.

Furthermore, there are areas of ambiguity and lack of clarity in the description of this first item.

Only after a comprehensive assessment of He Ming’s current sphere of influence and the surrounding security situation can he receive the corresponding reward.

You should know that He Ming is on the battle sequence list of the Super Dimension Fortress and is a member of the Wanshiwu.

The Yorozuya itself is very powerful, not to mention the second army standing behind it - the Castle.

Despite the existence of such a powerful backer, Veros still made the statement that a comprehensive assessment should be made based on the sphere of influence and the surrounding security situation.

Then, there is only one answer left.

That is, the first reward is related to the planet Eidora controlled by He Ming, or the route of Eidora - the starting star - Cygnus, and the relationship is very close.

He Ming glanced at the communicator. Until he returned to the super-dimensional fortress, neither Lin Mingmei nor King Kong had sent any message.

This situation made He Ming even more certain that the existence of the second and third rewards was just a smokescreen.

"Velos, you've learned bad things."

[Negative! Your Excellency. This is just to provide you with more possibilities and give you the freedom to choose more rewards.]

Velos denied it without hesitation.

"Well, I'll take the first one. Let me see what's hidden in the first one."

【Sir, do you confirm your choice? 】

"Sure!"

[Select and confirm! The first reward is a stargate (including one main control stargate and five sub-level ones), a battleship production factory, a MS production factory, and a resource collection center. ]

Upon hearing Velos's report, He Mingteng stood up suddenly and looked at the reward list in surprise.

"What the hell is going on?! A star gate? A battleship production factory? A MS production factory?! Is this going to be an interstellar war?!"
