Chapter 1685 Spaceships!



"Sure," Hye nodded, "leave your upgrade mission as it is for now. We are going to raise up your vices, then your chosen warriors..."

Hye started to feed crystals to a team of a hundred soulers first. This wasn't much, but he decided to let them work as his personal guards from now on.

As for the rest of the soulers and other warriors, he decided to wait until his Crystal Heart would yield crystals after a few months and a few rounds. He planted the remaining crystals directly at the Crystal Heart, supplied trees there with tons of bones, ending up to form lots of new trees.

He didn't care at this point by any bone consumption, but stuck to using only normal bones, spending tons of them to nourish these trees and make them reach top stage.

"It's a pity they are all normal crystals, tsk!" he knew they'd all yield dark gold grade crystals at the end. But if he had a way to make them produce better crystals, he'd not hesitate to do it.

After doing all this, he had nothing else to do but to wait. The merchants he dealt with were quite eager to repeat this again, promising to prepare a grander number of crystals next time in one month.

So, he had to wait for them, wait for his Crystal Heart's trees to get ripe to harvest, and also for Silverlining to return back to him.

As he had nothing to do, he started to grow interested in learning about warfare in the universe. He searched the system interface and common market for such news, ending up purchasing tons of memory beads and stored intel.

"Hell... Is this how they fight?!!!" just after going through part of these beads, he couldn't help but freeze in his place, feeling more pressure over him.

From what he read; he knew he got it all wrong! The way the big forces fought in the universe was something that was much different than what he used to have back in the apocalypse.

Here... It was mainly divided into space and ground fights. Ground fights were a thing he was much experienced at, having tons of warriors on his side to aid him in crushing any enemy. But the case was different when it came down to the space battles.

"Spaceships? Not only the ones I used to receive from the Toranks but totally different types?!" The beads he saw contained lots of videos about old battles between superpowers in the universe.

When he saw the first video, he realised all his thoughts about the upcoming battle were mere dreams and illusions. The scenes he saw in that video, and the later videos he watched, made him realise how small his power was compared to the powers of the great empires and forces in the universe.

The beads he got spoke about how these spaceships were operated. They were like his chariot in the general concept and got hearts that fueled them. But unlike his chariot, the ones in the universe had to power up these hearts using their powers.

The higher the level of the small army operating one spaceship, the deadlier the spaceship was. And that meant the bigger the spaceship was, the much more fighters it got to operate, the deadlier it became.

Attacks that could rival the ones he experienced before from the star weapons back at the apocalypse came out from these spaceships like a never-ending flood! He couldn't help but recall the time when he fought against thousands and tens of thousands of these star weapons, and how they needed lots of contribution points from the judges, the dirty angels, to operate them.

He now realised they needed contribution points as the levels of those angels in the apocalypse weren't enough to power up a single weapon of them. It was like the countermeasure placed by the system, to make up for the limitations enforced over any of these angels.

"Hmm... To make things worse, only a handful of impacts are monopolising making and trading these spaceships... And to many, they are far fetched dreams to reach than raising their level up!"

Hye knew things weren't going to be easy for him as he previously imagined. The spaceships were considered a very hot and crucial asset to any big force. And he knew even if he asked the Toranks for help, they wouldn't do it!

Spaceships had a long list of versions and sizes; each would serve a different role in the big wars. There were many small sized ones, with very fast speed and the ability to evade attacks and traverse long distances of space easily.

Yet their firepower wasn't that much to begin with and couldn't make an impact in any war alone. The medium sized spaceships were something that would act as the connecting dots and kinks between these small sized ones and the much bigger ones.

The small sized spaceships got decent firepower abilities, with moderate speed and evasion responses. They could host tens of thousands of fighters, with lots of small guns and few big ones.

The biggest spaceships were called the Flagships, the Destroyers, the Boomers, and other weird names that reminded Hye of sci-fi stories he read back on Earth.

Each had a role to play, and a giant army must have many of these to facilitate various operations, either on space or on ground.

Hye looked at all this data and got the feeling that his options to take part in such a grand battle were quite limited.

"I either have to persuade those leading this world, to let me board a spaceship with my warriors... But I doubt they'll allow such a thing to happen..."

He realised why the leaders of this world acted in such confidence and calmness towards him. They didn't try to get in contact with him again, as if they were sure that he would be the one approaching them first.n0velUsB.c0m
