The little girl raised her head and looked straight ahead, as if she were watching Zhao Chen.
"There's a place on the other side of the door that I'd like you to go and take a look at."
Of course, this is just a request of mine.
Whether you want to go or not is up to you.
Regarding the coordinates, my subordinates will share them with you once you reach the other side of the door. The little girl swung her legs, then stretched. "I'm going to take a nap."
After saying that, the little girl disappeared.
At this moment, all the light and shadow around us disappeared.
"I've told you everything I needed to tell you." Ah Yin looked at Zhao Chen, as if waiting for his reply to her master's request.
There's a coordinate location on the other side of the door that you need to find yourself.
Why me?
"Can't you send out your own patrol fleet to investigate?" Zhao Chen asked, puzzled.
I don't know either.
You can only ask your master yourself after he wakes up.
However, I suspect it's related to the limitations of our mechanical life forms.
"And among carbon-based life forms, you are the only one Master can trust." Ah Yin expressed his thoughts.
Go to the other side of Gaia's Gate; this is one of the quests available in the in-game store.
Zhao Chen definitely has to do it.
As for the little girl's request...
"Just because I'm there, does that mean I have to do this?" Zhao Chen asked.
“Yes.” Ah Yin nodded.
Zhao Chen paused for a moment and asked, "Are there any restrictions on when I go, how many starships I bring, and when I return?"
Ah Yin replied, "There are no restrictions on when you go or how many starships you bring."
But if you want to come back.
It may not be possible to come back anytime, anywhere.
This is not a limitation imposed on us, but rather a limitation imposed by the Gaia Gate.
The Gaia Gate can only be opened at ten times a year, and each opening lasts for three to five days.
It usually takes about a month between appointments.
So if you go there, you'll need to wait at least a month to come back.
So there was such a limitation.
A month is not a very long time.
"Alright, I grant your master's request."
But I need to make some preparations, since the war on our side is not over yet.
"We still need to deal with the demons." Zhao Chen agreed to this.
On one hand, it's to unlock the T6 Mall quest; on the other hand, it's to explore more secrets behind the Gaia Gate.
“Okay.” Ah Yin nodded in agreement.
Then, she looked at Zhao Chen and said, "My master instructed that if you agree to this matter..."
I've left you some things too.
From now on, your status in the Machine Race will be equal to mine and Akin's.
You can issue orders to our Mech Race fleet, as long as either I or Arkin agrees.
In addition, all stargates and starports within the Machine Race territory will be open to you, and you may use them freely.
Hearing Ah Yin's words, Zhao Chen looked at her with some surprise: "So that means..."
If I hadn't agreed just now.
I don't have those permissions either.
Ah Yin didn't say anything, which was taken as tacit agreement.
Zhao Chen smiled slightly; that little girl had really pulled this stunt on him.
Suddenly, Zhao Chen thought of something.
He asked directly, "Then may I borrow the production capacity of the industrial construction facilities within your machine race's territory?"
Ah Yin paused for a moment: "You have the right to transfer, but there will be some restrictions."
You can make your request, and Akin and I will discuss it.
"I need your industrial base to produce some of our raw materials and components."
"I can pay a certain fee and provide the raw materials," Zhao Chen stated his idea.
During this time, Zhao Chen figured out that the Mechanical Race's territory had a very strong industrial foundation.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to build the first batch of three hundred T5 Prisoner-class heavy interstellar assault battleships in just one month after he gave Ah Yin the T5 Prisoner-class heavy interstellar assault battleship blueprints!
Even now, three batches have been completed, with the latter two batches far exceeding the previous ones in quantity.
It is rumored that at least five thousand T5 Prisoner-class heavy interstellar assault battleships have been built to date!
It was thanks to these T5 prisoners that the Machine Race was able to withstand the Demon Race's attack before the Wyvern Legion made its move.
The T5 Prisoner-class heavy interstellar assault battleship is not only capable of countering the near-T6 Destroyer-class heavy interstellar battleship, but can also be used in conventional combat, making it a very capable interstellar warship.
Even though the construction time for the T5 Prisoner-class ships is not long, it still requires a strong industrial foundation to build so many T5 interstellar warships in a short period of time.
This is the advantage of the Mech race.
Now that he has such great authority, Zhao Chen naturally hopes to make use of this powerful production capacity.
"Contact me immediately if you have any news," Zhao Chen said with a smile.
"OK."
"Well, since I'm here, let's discuss the counterattack plan for the demon race."
Since the demon race has already launched an invasion against your machine race.
"I think you won't remain neutral anymore, right?" Zhao Chen asked.
Ah Yin hesitated for a moment, then said, "We are willing to participate in your counterattack plan against the demon race."
However, we also suffered considerable losses in the previous battles.
We need to maintain order in our various territorial star systems and protect our important strategic locations, so we need to leave a portion of our interstellar warships behind.
It's not feasible to launch a full-scale attack.
“I can understand that.”
"Just tell me, how many interstellar warships are you willing to deploy?" Zhao Chen asked bluntly.
A Yin replied, "We are willing to deploy one million Mech Race interstellar warships."
One million ships...
The quantity is not very large.
But it's better than nothing.
"Furthermore, we are willing to hand over command of these one million machine race interstellar warships to you," Ayin added.
These words surprised Zhao Chen.
He laughed and said, "Leave it to me?"
You trust me that much?
Aren't you worried I'll just dump your interstellar warships on the battlefield as cannon fodder?
"I believe you," Ah Yin said earnestly.
Seeing Ah Yin's serious expression, Zhao Chen also put away his smile: "Okay, I will take responsibility for these mechanical interstellar warships."
If there's nothing else, I'll head back now.
She woke up and contacted me immediately.
As Zhao Chen spoke, he prepared to leave, giving the T6 Luo Shen-class nanostarship one last glance.
"Wait, there's another little thing."
"You might be more interested in this." Ah Yin called out to Zhao Chen, walked up to him, and said something.
Zhao Chen looked somewhat surprised.
