Chapter 1025: Chapter 695: We’ve Struck It Rich~ (Part 3)
The insects quickly launched super brain computation.
On Cloud Trace Continent, those insects following Dragon Cypress and Ink Orchid, each has nurtured at least 5 God-Given Life Seeds.
Sounds like quite a lot...
Upon careful calculation, considering the Insect Clan’s hibernation ability, everyone can indeed endure slowly, only consuming Divine-Given Origin Force Food, maximizing every age period, striving to become strongest.
Ink Orchid further asked: "What about the Assistant Kings of the Ant Clan and Bee Clan? Is the resource needed for growth evolution still half that of the Ant King?"
White Ivy: "As predicted on the home planet, starting from the Third Trace Realm, Assistant Kings and common life seeds as such semi-Origin Force lives will gradually metamorphose into complete Origin Force life forms."
"Assistant Kings are at the Third Trace Realm stage, evolving once in each age period, metamorphosing once. With each metamorphosis, the resources needed for evolution increase slightly; of course, comprehensive strength also increases accordingly. Consuming a lot of Divine-Given Origin Force Food speeds up metamorphosis; eating only Divine-Given Origin Force Food may transform into complete Origin Force lives within five or six age periods. On the contrary, consuming common Origin Force Food or growing through meditation slows metamorphosis, possibly taking until Nine Traces Realm to leap into complete Origin Force life."
"The situation of common life seed plants is different than Assistant Kings. Common life seed plants stop at 1 age period of Third Trace Realm, requiring about three thousand years to gradually nurture soul, consciousness, derive spiritual power, and finally metamorphose into complete Origin Force life forms."
"After evolving into complete Origin Force life forms, the quality of Origin Force Food produced by common life seeds will significantly enhance. However, it still can’t match God-Given Seeds, remaining a notch lower."
Ink Orchid: "Understood~"
Ink Orchid asked: "Are many insects staying in Venus Star System?"
White Ivy: "Yes. Many insects. Some have stayed here for tens of thousands of years. Additionally, entire tribes of the Insect Clan remain here without leaving."
"There are four reasons: First, the Origin Force concentration here is decent, sufficient for Scar Realm growth evolution; second, Primordial Crystals are cheap, only needing to consume a little to replenish Origin Force during growth and operation when insufficient;
third, warriors of the Insect Clan who emerged from the home planet, most of them at least carry a God-Given Seed. Having two, three is not uncommon, four, five, six, seven, even more exist. Venus Star System abundantly produces Divine-Given Origin Force Food, trading flourishes."
"As for the fourth reason, this place is too far from the Main Star System; fast-running Third Level Star Spiders are expensive, slow-running Second Level Star Spiders waste life."
White Ivy: "For comprehensive reasons, most insects endure until after Star Realm before leaving."
"Oh——"
Ink Orchid immediately followed up: "I heard Purple Perilla mention, is land leasing required to establish roots here?"
"Yes——"
White Ivy energetically waved claws, saying: "My White Ivy Chamber of Commerce has a complete large plot of land on Twisted Blue Star! Since early expected your arrival with Dragon Cypress, without finding suitable land to establish roots, I’ve reserved it, not recruiting other insects, it’s been left vacant. Ink Orchid, you can directly move in and establish roots."
"Oh——"
"Thank you, Chairman White Ivy!"
Ink Orchid was pleasantly surprised, cheerful, turned back and vigorously waved tentacles, signaling: "We have a place to root! Aren’t you going to thank Chairman White Ivy quickly?"
White Willow: "Thank you, Chairman White Ivy~"
Black Rice: "...Thank you~"
Red Moonseed: "...Many thanks~"
The insects expressed their gratitude, feeling something was off.
White Rice inquired: "Chairman White Ivy, how large is a complete large territory?"
White Ivy: "Insect Constructed Survival Planets have no ocean, no distinct spring, summer, autumn, winter seasons. In tropical, subtropical, and temperate habitable areas, a grid of hexagonal regions with side lengths of 100 kilometers is delineated by public roads for land division. A complete zone measures approximately 26,000 square kilometers."
"The Seventh-level chamber of commerce undertaking guardianship of the home planet simultaneously holds land management rights in Venus Star System. They number territories according to zones, leasing cheaply to First, Second, and Third level small chambers of commerce below them. Small chambers then recruit Insect Clan warriors to inhabit."
White Rice asked: "What about rent?"
White Ivy exuberantly replied: "Free. Free. You can move in directly."
There’s a catch!
Upon hearing, Ink Orchid’s tentacles swayed, secretly alert.
At three years old, Ant already mentioned that Flame Spider cunning merchants love attracting insects with the appeal of free and low prices.
Behind free and low prices, various tricks and deep pits await.
Ink Orchid silently observed.
White Rice, deeply suspicious, asked: "It’s not really as simple as free, is it? There must be additional conditions, right?"
White Ivy explained: "The leasing model mainly divides into two types: one is fixed rent, for instance, if I lease 1 square kilometer of land to some insect, annually collecting 1 Primordial Crystal rental fee, for 26,000 square kilometers of land, the rent amounts to 26,000 Primordial Crystals annually. Leasing the entire plot, price, is slightly lower, approximately 25,000 Primordial Crystals/year;
The second type is free residence, but the produced Origin Force Food must be sold to our White Ivy Chamber of Commerce. Just like on the home planet, we Flame Spider roving merchants earn profit through Origin Force Food transactions."
White Rice: "Then can we opt for paying 25,000 Primordial Crystals rent annually?"
"...Of course, you can."
White Ivy hesitated, reminding: "Want to calculate carefully your finances?"
A group of insects activated super brain ability, frantically computed, while White Ivy remained speechless.
If not calculating Law Divine Trees and Divine God-Given Seeds,
everyone’s collections of life seeds and wild God-Given Seeds each year’s total income barely reaches 100,000 Primordial Crystals~
Ink Orchid discontentedly remarked: "Chairman White Ivy, your land rent is too expensive, right?"
White Ivy: "Average insects can’t rent the whole plot. Common Insect Clan warriors, each can lease forty to fifty square kilometers, which suffices. Yet Dragon Cypress Ant King and Ink Orchid being lavish must lease the entire plot."
