【Quarterly Tasks】
Mission objective: Initiate a holy war duel against the Holy Radiant Empire and ultimately win the holy war duel.
Task rewards: Distributed based on task completion rate.
Task completion rate 83%, task reward available.
【Congratulations on obtaining 500 mission points and the 'T4 Whale-class Heavy Interstellar Transport Ship' blueprint.】
Zhao Chen looked at the rewards he had received for this mission.
Five hundred mission points are exactly what Zhao Chen needs right now, so this reward couldn't be more suitable.
As the Dragon Legion grows stronger, the passive income from system points is enough to support Zhao Chen's expenses; the key is mission points.
As for the T4 Whale-class heavy interstellar transport ship, this is also an auxiliary ship type that Zhao Chen needs now.
With the development of five resource star regions, Zhao Chen has a T3 Gold Miner-class heavy interstellar mining ship for mining.
The return transport is handled by interstellar transport ships.
This transport mission was originally undertaken by the T3 Beluga-class heavy interplanetary transport ships; however, if the T4 Whale-class heavy interplanetary transport ships are put into service in the future, the efficiency will be greatly improved!
With its increased speed, this T4 Whale-class heavy interplanetary transport ship still has a carrying capacity dozens of times that of the T3 Great White Whale-class heavy interplanetary transport ship!
This can greatly increase transportation efficiency!
Most importantly, the T4 Whale-class heavy interplanetary transport ship can be equipped with an eighth-level warp drive.
Don't underestimate the difference between these two levels.
In the interplanetary transportation industry, time is money!
"When the time comes, we'll build thirty of these interstellar transport ships to form a transport fleet; they'll be dedicated to running the route through the five resource star systems outside," Zhao Chen began to plan.
The situation is now basically clear.
Due to the three-year restriction, the Holy Radiant Empire cannot directly use military force against the Starry Empire within three years.
With its own Revolutionary Army setting fires in their backyard, the Warhammer Starfleet Federation is not in a position to launch another expedition against the Star Empire anytime soon.
On the main battlefield, with the arrival of strategic supplies on his side, the constraint of a six-month "war lifespan" that had been a constraint on Chu Changhe was finally lifted.
The upcoming battle for the Star Empire will be even more intense.
With the war cost no longer a concern, and with Zhao Chen's starship factory producing interstellar warships at full speed, the civil war is about to enter its most intense phase.
The game of chess in front of Zhao Chen has come to life!
Furthermore, Zhao Chen also greatly expanded his power in this game, acquiring five resource star regions.
Although it's nominally something I developed on behalf of Zhao Chen, do you expect him to take it back once it's in his pocket?
dream!
This period also gave Zhao Chen enough time to develop the Xiaolong Legion.
The JF-17 Thunder Legion has achieved further development not only in quality but also in quantity.
Meanwhile, as the interstellar industrial ships further expand, the war machine in Zhao Chen's hands is gradually revealing its true power.
However, Zhao Chen still had one thing to take care of.
That's the annual task.
The holy war has ended, and there are less than twenty days left until the end of the year.
Zhao Chen naturally needed to find a way to complete this annual task.
Three of the annual missions—the monthly revenue of the Xiaolong Legion, the current T4-class interstellar warships of the Xiaolong Legion, and the star systems controlled by the Xiaolong Legion—had already been completed previously.
There are still two tasks remaining to be completed.
【Requirement 2: Possess 3,000, 6,000, 9,000, 12,000, or 15,000 T2-class or higher interstellar warships. Progress: 15,000 ships (5-star)】
【Requirement 3: Possess one, two, three, four, or five T4 combat-type interstellar warships. Progress: Three (3 stars)】
In this way, Zhao Chen has already obtained twenty-three stars in the annual mission, and there are still two stars left to reach the highest level of twenty-five stars.
The only two missing stars are naturally the two T4-class combat interstellar warships.
Zhao Chen opened his own page.
【Host: Zhao Chen】
Occupation: Top Starship Engineer
Special attributes: Fleet Luck Bonus, Eye of Insight
System points: 2.09 million (monthly fleet income: 1.28 million points)
Mission Points: 800
Number of starships: 15,311
Task: Annual task (incomplete)
Warehouse: T5 Hades-class interstellar dreadnought, Hades matrix module...
The system points and task points are plentiful.
Zhao Chen immediately began browsing through the T4-class interstellar warships.
This time, he's looking into the area of interstellar destroyers.
After all, there are only a few days left until the deadline agreed upon with Grandpa Chu Changhe. Since we have to complete the task anyway, we might as well redeem it now.
However, the T4-class interstellar destroyer that was exchanged was not customized for the Xiaolong Legion, but rather had to meet the requirements of Grandpa Chu Changhe.
That is, it has high cost-effectiveness, fast construction speed, low cost, and low difficulty of control, etc.
These did not meet the customization requirements of Zhao Chen's Xiaolong Legion's elite fleet.
Therefore, Zhao Chen will still arrange another type of interstellar destroyer for his Xiaolong Legion.
Zhao Chen quickly identified the item he wanted to redeem.
【Would you like to consume 1 million system points and 60 mission points to exchange for the 'T4 Skull Legion-class Medium Star Destroyer' blueprint?】
Sure!
【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T4 Skull Legion-class Medium Star Destroyer' blueprint】
【Current system points: 1,090,000】
【Current mission point: 740】
This T4 Skull Legion-class medium-sized interstellar destroyer perfectly suits Chu Changhe's needs.
Just a few of these characteristics are already quite obvious.
First, there are the technical requirements for its construction. Although it is a T4-level interstellar warship, many of the technologies can be handled by T3-level docks and construction factories, so there is not much technical difficulty.
Secondly, there are its construction resources and construction costs.
The building resources are all common raw materials, which makes the cost of a single ship as low as only 100 million star coins!
What does 100 million Star Coins mean?
For example, the T4 Paladin-class heavy interplanetary missile frigates currently in service with the JF-17 Thunder Legion cost 500 million each.
Even the T4 Whale-class heavy interstellar transport ship that Zhao Chen just acquired only cost 100 million star coins.
Perhaps this isn't direct enough.
The Dragon Legion currently operates T3 Emperor-class heavy interstellar battleships, each costing 100 million Star Credits.
Now you finally understand just how cheap this T4 Skull Legion-class medium-sized star destroyer is.
The weaknesses of this interstellar warship are also obvious: its individual combat power is relatively weak. Its only advantage may be its robust hull armor, making it quite durable.
Its overall strength is far inferior to that of the Holy Radiant Empire's Divine Messenger-class medium-sized interstellar destroyers.
But if we say that its quantity is accumulated...
If there are hundreds or thousands of them, then it's a completely different story. This star destroyer is equipped with a special combat system that can connect with all star destroyers of the same model, and it also features a mid-range intelligent combat system.
In this way, no matter how many of these T4 Skull Legion-class medium-sized star destroyers there are, as long as the combat system is activated, they can achieve highly coordinated combat operations.
This is a very powerful combat capability in large-scale legion battles.
