The T4 Suzaku-class medium-sized star cruiser has completed its sea trials.
Regarding the crew arrangements and appointments for this first T4 Suzaku, Zhao Chen is the nominal captain, as it is his flagship and carrier ship.
Charlotte served as the vice-captain, and she was in charge of all combat command of the starship, while Zhao Chen was just a figurehead.
While Zhao Chen was still basking in the joy of acquiring his first T4 starship, a voice in his {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} mind announced the mission's completion.
【Quarterly Mission: Reach 300 active T3 interstellar warships (Completed)】
Quarterly task rewards are available.
After a three-month construction plan, Zhao Chen's active T3 interstellar warships had already exceeded three hundred, but the mission was not completed until the last day of this month!
With a joyful heart, Zhao Chen clicked to claim the quarterly task reward.
【Congratulations on receiving 300,000 system points and 100 mission points】
This time, there are only system points and task points.
Zhao Chen checked his account balance.
【Current system points: 500,000】
【Current task points: 400】
With the quarterly tasks completed, Zhao Chen took a look at the annual tasks as well.
【Annual Tasks:】
Requirement 1: Possess a legion-level interstellar fleet (3000 interstellar warships), of which 300 must be Tier 3 interstellar warships. (515/3000) (Incomplete)
Requirement 2: Possess a T4 combat-type interstellar warship (completed)
Requirement 3: The average lifespan in the Xiaolong Galaxy must be '7' or higher. (3.9/10) (Incomplete)
Requirement 4: Please possess an imperial title of Marquis or higher (Completed)
Requirement 5: Possess 20 T3-level technologies produced by the system (18/20) (Incomplete)
Note: Completing four of these tasks will signify completion of the annual mission and allow you to claim the mission reward; completing all five tasks will grant you an additional reward of a 'T5 Starship Technology Blueprint'.
Two of the five tasks have been completed, leaving three tasks incomplete.
Of these, only the fifth item can be completed immediately.
There's no time like the present, let's get it done today!
Zhao Chen made an excuse to leave the bridge and went to the captain's bedroom on the T4 Vermilion Bird. The entire captain's bedroom was luxurious, with three floors!
The total area is over 2,000 square meters!
There's even a small swimming pool.
Zhao Chen sat on the sofa, opened the system's product list, and searched for the items he needed.
First, Zhao Chen searched the system store for the ship types that the Xiaolong Legion was currently lacking.
T3-class star cruiser!
Although Zhao Chen already possesses the T4 Vermilion Bird, it is expensive to build and has high construction requirements, so it cannot be mass-produced in a short period of time.
T3-class star cruisers can support other ship types in combat on the main battlefield.
He quickly selected a suitable target.
【Would you like to consume 10,000 system points and 10 mission points to exchange for the 'T3 Windhawk-class Medium Star Cruiser' technical blueprint?】
"Sure."
【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T3 Windhawk-class Medium Star Cruiser' blueprint】
【Your remaining system points: 490,000】
【Your remaining mission points: 390】
The T3 Windhawk-class medium star cruiser doesn't have any particularly outstanding features, but its advantage lies in pushing the characteristics of a conventional star cruiser to the limit!
Take the most advanced T3 interstellar cruiser in the Galactic Alliance as an example: the T3 Windhawk's overall performance is 50% better than the former!
On the battlefield, it can completely crush the opponent.
Even if one were to fight three, they would still have a fighting chance!
"One more is needed." Zhao Chen scanned the system's inventory and spotted something familiar.
【T4 Super Soldier Potion】
How could I have forgotten this?
Zhao Chen had previously obtained three Super Soldier Potions, all as rewards for completing missions.
So far, the mission rewards have not included T4 Super Soldier Potion, and Zhao Chen has not thought about it.
I didn't expect to find it in the system store.
Unfortunately, these are not technical blueprints, but disposable props.
It is a T4 level technology product, and may not be included in the annual task.
However, Zhao Chen had experienced the benefits of improved physical fitness firsthand, and it was definitely a win-win situation.
In the end, Zhao Chen made a tough decision.
【Would you like to spend 100,000 system points and 100 mission points to redeem the item 'T4 Super Warrior Potion'?】
"Sure."
【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T4 Super Soldier Potion'】
【Your remaining system points: 390,000】
【Your remaining mission points: 290】
Then, a familiar vial of medicine appeared in Zhao Chen's hand, except that the liquid inside had turned red.
Zhao Chen still vividly remembers the pain he felt when he was injected with the T3 Super Soldier serum.
But as the saying goes, "No pain, no gain."
If you can't even endure this much pain, how can you build a powerful interstellar fleet!
Zhao Chen made up his mind, picked up the medicine, and prepared to inject.
But he paused for a moment.
He put down the vial of medicine and summoned a robot.
It commanded it to put on the highest level of restraint clothing.
These binding garments are so tight that even a half-orc like Charlotte wouldn't be able to break free, let alone a human.
After preparing everything, Zhao Chen had the robot inject him with the medicine vial.
Zhao Chen watched helplessly as the vial of medicine was plunged into his chest, the red liquid inside disappearing little by little.
Time passed little by little.
One minute... three minutes...
Sweat beaded on Zhao Chen's forehead, but it wasn't from pain; it was from nervousness.
Why haven't I experienced any pain so far?
Could it be that the T4-level super soldier serum is so advanced that it causes no pain...?
Before Zhao Chen could even feel happy for long, a wave of intense pain swept through his body, his eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he roared as the restraints on his body ripped apart.
Zhao Chen roared, having lost his mind. He looked at the adorable robot giving him an injection and reached out to grab its little head.
crunch
With electric current shooting out, the robot was rendered unusable.
But this was far from over. Even more intense pain swept through Zhao Chen's entire body, and at this moment, fainting was a blessing for him.
Zhao Chen, in excruciating pain, could only swing his fists at the bedroom wall.
One punch, two punches... three punches...
Zhao Chen swung his fists repeatedly.
Bridge.
"Warning! Warning! Warning! The internal armor on the starboard side of the ship has been attacked. The internal armor strength in this area is 70% remaining."
Charlotte stared at the warning with disbelief, her face full of question marks.
Zhao Chen probably never imagined that the first time his T4 Vermilion Bird was 'damaged' would be by his own hands.
