From cannon fodder to sweeping across thousands of stars.

Chapter 388 I think no one wants this planet?
“Regarding the Atlas Group’s use of Thousand Star Empire weapons in the conflict, the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently condemned the Thousand Star Empire.

Recently, the official Elf Royal Court of the Thousand Star Empire responded to this matter, saying that the actions of the Atlas Group only represent personal actions and have nothing to do with the Elf Royal Court.

The so-called "weapons" used in the conflict were only "large-scale civilian mining devices" according to the official definition of the Thousand Star Empire, and did not reach the level of large weapons.

The Elven Royal Court providing weapons to the Atlas Group is pure nonsense. I hope the Federation will be cautious in its words and deeds."

On the screen of a single cabin on the Infinity, a relaxing news from a certain media outlet was being broadcast.

Amber changed several media sources in succession and found that although the copywriting, opinions and biases of these media were very different, they all reported the same fact - that is, the Thousand Star Empire officially denied supporting weapons for the Atlas Group, and even directly stated that the Infinity used only "large-scale civilian mining equipment" in the battle.
"So what exactly is the Elven Court thinking? Why do I feel like they are covering for Atlas?"

Amber turned her head and looked to the other side. Alanita's holographic image was being projected on the other side of the room. Judging from her hair wrapped in a towel and the fact that her shoulders and below were not projected, this rich woman seemed to be taking a bath?

To be honest, Amber definitely didn't choose to disturb Ellenita when she was taking a bath.

It was purely because of Isabel's previous suggestion that he asked the rich elf woman whether she had time to negotiate now after the meeting.

After receiving an affirmative reply from the other party, he held a holographic video conference as usual, and Alanita answered the call without any hesitation.

The result is the slightly awkward situation we are in now. Amber is even a little embarrassed to look over there.

But after hearing the sound of splashing water, his head turned involuntarily, and his eyes quickly scanned the key position just like guiding his pupils to aim in the HCP cockpit.

Don't forget your original intention.

Ellenita, who was 'rich and generous' in both senses of the word, changed her posture in the huge bathtub and sat up from the water. This movement naturally caused a lot of waves.

With the performance advantages of advanced holographic projection equipment and the excellent eyesight of the psychic, Amber could even see strings of water droplets sliding down from the two slimes half-buried in the water, which was truly "hot spring water washing the fat away".

"Are you planning to admire it for a while longer, or do you want to discuss serious matters with me?"

Amber came back to his senses when Alanita's slightly lazy voice came. He then realized that the female elf was staring at him with narrowed eyes.

"Ahem. Let's get down to business."

Amber smiled sheepishly, he had always been a man who was easily blinded.

"Don't be too confident and think that the royal court is backing you up. Although they have indeed been paying attention to Atlas, and the 'Phoenix King' has also contacted the Yuge family through private channels to learn about it several times, they are only interested in Atlas, so they only pay a little attention to it."

Ellenita rolled her eyes at Amber and raised her arm as she spoke, letting the water in her palm slowly slide down.

"The Elf King's court is saying this in an official capacity this time, purely because it does not want to be associated with this civil war among humans, and does not want you to accuse us of interfering in the human civil war."

Although she was not surprised by Ellenita's answer, Amber couldn't help but ask, "So the 'large-scale civilian mining equipment' is also false?"

"Not exactly. That 'Super Heavy Purification Beam Generator' was originally a retired product due to some minor problems. According to you humans, its psychic 'output power' is indeed a little short, so it did not reach the Thousand Star Empire's 'military standard' level."

Ellenita smiled like a mature fox. Although this description was a bit strange for an elf.

"As expected of an elf, you are really good at playing word games."

"Thank you, Mr. Amber."

The female elf looked very proud after hearing Amber's words. Due to cultural differences, Amber's words seemed like serious "praise" to the elf.

"Then the next thing is the second thing." Amber didn't say much and immediately moved on to the next step.

After all, such a sexy female elf, in the form of a 'bathroom limited skin', is a bit too much for a hot-blooded sunny boy like him to handle. "I may need your and the Yuge family's help to transport some supplies to Pyla IV. Although the conflict with the Federation has come to an end for the time being, except for the area controlled by Atlas, there is basically no order in other places on the planet, and various necessities are in short supply."

"Has the situation become so serious? It has forced you, Mr. Amber, to actively seek my help."

Ellenita frowned. If Amber hadn't said that, she really wouldn't have thought that the shortage of supplies on Pella IV was so serious.

“Because this planet is just a very marginal colonized planet. Apart from population, taxes, and mobs, it does not have any special output.

Although there are various industrial chains for basic necessities on the planet, as far as I know, Pyla IV also needs to import certain commodities on a daily basis to meet its own needs. "

Amber paused, opened a report on the industry of Pyla IV, and continued:

“After a series of battles, the industrial chain that had been built on the planet was basically in a semi-stagnant state.

The few large-scale production bases are controlled by the Federation Army that has not surrendered, the remnants of the Empire, and an Imperial noble who owns a fiefdom on the planet. Although the area they control is not large, it is still considered a relatively important area on this planet."

"So, in addition to these areas, there may be a 'humanitarian crisis' now?" Ellenita quickly scanned the report, and combined with Amber's narration, she roughly understood the problems of this planet.

"That's right. After all, human society is a huge and complex machine. The seemingly ordinary daily life is actually the result of this 'machine' running 24 hours a day.

But if one day the machine suddenly has a problem and stops working, and it is not "repaired" for a long time, then after a period of time, the machine will completely break down."

Listening to Amber's words, Alanita fell into thought. Amber did not disturb the female elf, although he was a little worried that the rich woman would faint after soaking in it for too long.

After a while, Alanita finished thinking and spoke again:

"If we can send another transport fleet from the Yuge family headquarters, we can maintain the supply of materials through transportation in the short term, but this is not a long-term solution."

"So I didn't plan to just ask you to transport the most basic supplies~"

"I knew you had other plans, Mr. Amber."

Ellenita laughed again, just like she did every time she found Amber had some 'weird ideas'.

"In addition to the most basic supplies, do you think there is any way to pack some 'production lines' over here? I can also consider becoming self-sufficient gradually."

"Do you still plan to develop on this planet for a long time?"

Ellenita's eyes suddenly widened, and she sat up straight in the water, not caring that this action would expose her private parts.

Amber took great pains to keep her gaze from being so rude, and continued:

“The location of this planet is interesting, and the current situation is even more interesting.
The Empire won’t be able to fight back anytime soon, and as for the Federation, I don’t think they’ll have time to take care of this in the near future, after all, the war on the front line alone is enough to overwhelm them.”

"What if one of them becomes free in the future?"

Alanita asked, and this female elf who had seen all kinds of storms had to admit that Amber was indeed the bravest and most capable of repeatedly testing the edge of danger she had ever seen.

"I've laid my cards on the table. Do you think I'll continue to develop slowly and bide my time like before?"

Amber shrugged, looking nonchalant, then smiled mysteriously, and added after a moment:
"And is there a possibility that both of them may not be able to spare any effort in the future?"
