Third Fusion Activation
On the Heavenly River Planet, Zhao Long was the only one who could make Bai Zhengjun fear him. His authority was monstrous!
However, as a Major General of the Federation, he had his own worries. This worry was that although he had a lot of authority, he couldn't turn it into his own power and benefits.
The military discipline of the Everlasting Dynasty was extremely strict. No one dared to do something like embezzlement. Once the higher-ups found out, the consequences were unimaginable.
Therefore, even though Zhao Long was already a Major General, stationed on an administrative planet, and received an astronomical amount of military funds every year, he didn't dare to act rashly on these funds.
In the Heavenly Dust Nation, all the financial officials of the military branches on the administrative planets were independent. They reported directly to the military headquarters on the Heavenly Dust Planet. Therefore, although Zhao Long had military power, he didn't have enough!
Of course, as a Major General was considered a high-ranking official in the Federation, Zhao Long's annual salary was still very generous. It was enough for his cultivation and other expenses. If it was a normal person, it would be enough.
However, Zhao Long was different. Not only was his family located on the Heavenly Dust Planet, the capital of the Heavenly Dust Nation, but even on the Heavenly Dust Planet, they were considered a first-class noble family. Such large families usually had a lot of people. In Zhao Long's generation, there were hundreds of direct descendants, and more than half of them were males.
To Zhao Long, these cousins were all his future competitors for the position of the head of the Zhao Family!
With hundreds of males, it was naturally impossible for all of them to be outstanding. If Zhao Long was one of those mediocre people, there would be no need to compete at all because the chances were slim.
However, he happened to be one of the top few among the hundreds of males in the Zhao Family. Since that was the case, how could he not compete for the position of the head of the family?
The human race of the Starry Era had left behind too many profound lessons. Basically, there was no such thing as feudal and pedantic thinking. The larger the family and power, the stricter and harsher the system.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to maintain the power to continue!
For a first-rate aristocratic family like the Zhao Family, the younger generation had to be independent once they reached adulthood. Of course, they could also choose to enjoy the family's resources for free and live a normal life. No one would stop them. However, if they wanted to fight for hegemony, they had to go out. The family would not provide any resources to support them. If they had the ability, they had to prove themselves!
Zhao Long and a dozen other cousins who had the potential to compete for the position of Patriarch were all like this!
Therefore, even though the Zhao Family was powerful and wealthy in the Tian Chen Kingdom, Zhao Long didn't receive much resources from the family. Everything he needed to fight for the position of Patriarch had to be obtained by himself!
Of course, Zhao Long had many ways to make money. Although the occasional robbery by turning soldiers into bandits was only one of them, this kind of business without any capital would either not start, or once it started, the profits would be extremely shocking.
In the Heavenly River Planet, Zhao Long had a large number of trusted subordinates who were like men of sacrifice. They were scattered everywhere as spies to find targets for him. The young man who was in the video call with him was one of them. The area he was in charge of was the floating platform where the Exchange Hall of the Heavenly River Planet Federation was located!
"I can give you double the usual authority. You can choose the people you need. There is only one requirement, and that is that this matter must be completed!"
After a short silence, Zhao Long spoke again in the virtual screen. "This time, that idiot from the Bai Family has caused a big mess. This is the best time to overthrow him and seize the position of Patriarch of the Heavenly River Planet. However, the Bai Family is not without foundation in the Heavenly Dust Planet. Old Man Bai has indeed given birth to a good son who holds an important position in the capital. If we want to use this opportunity to overthrow him, we must put in a lot of effort in the operation!
"And those old bastards in the capital have always had a big appetite. I'm afraid that ordinary things won't be able to move them. Today, this prey can throw out a pile of Level 6 blue Star Core Sources, and it is very likely that there are even higher quality Star Cores. These things are exactly what I need right now. It is related to the success or failure of the Zhao Family's Patriarch Competition. Do you understand?"
The young man who called himself Zou Hong was terrified. He quickly lowered his head and said, "General, rest assured, Zou Hong understands. I will do my best to complete this task. If there is any mistake, I will bring my head to you!"
When he raised his head again, Zhao Long's figure on the virtual screen in front of him had disappeared. Zou Hong let out a light breath and clenched his fists fiercely. His eyes were filled with ecstasy. "I thought it was just a slightly fat lamb as usual. I didn't expect this matter to be related to the battle for the position of the Patriarch of the General's family."
"Hehe, once the general overthrows Bai Zhengjun and replaces him with someone from the Zhao Family, not only will he be able to earn a lot of money in the future, he will also have made a great contribution to the Zhao Family. The Patriarch Position will no longer be a problem. When that time comes, I, Zou Hong, will be the most outstanding person. In the future, there will definitely be a place for me in the upper echelons of the Zhao Family …"
…
"Ding! Discovered Purple Lightning Shuttle, a top-grade formation battleship! Fusion requirements met. Will you fuse it? "
In his mind, the notification of the Devouring System sounded. Without any hesitation, Ye Xuan gave an affirmative reply.
Soon, the Soul Concealment Shuttle and Purple Lightning Shuttle in his body disappeared at the same time. A large amount of Planetary Core Origin in the former's cabin was moved out and stored in Ye Xuan's Undying World.
Of course, as the energy required for the Devouring System, Ye Xuan deliberately left behind a cubic meter of Level 5 Red Planetary Core Origin. It should be enough.
After a short while, the system notification sounded again. "Ding! Fusion energy absorption complete! Third fusion beginning! Progress 1 … "
At this point, Ye Xuan finally heaved a sigh of relief. Originally, he wanted to check with the system to see if the Immortal Star Super Brain fragment could be used immediately and activate the system's Star Level Communication System. However, at this moment, a vast land appeared in front of him. The auction center of the Heavenly River Planet was near the coastal area. He was about to reach it.
Therefore, Ye Xuan could only put this matter aside for the time being. With a thought, he moved his body and quickly landed in the center of the Heavenly River Planet!
Compared to the ocean area, the land of the Heavenly River Planet was more prosperous and lively. Huge buildings were everywhere. Even the most inconspicuous building had hundreds of floors. A large number of shuttles were intertwined at low altitude. It was like the Milky Way, dazzling the eyes.
However, in an area near the coastal area, there was a huge castle-shaped building that seemed a little isolated and out of place. There were few other buildings in the surrounding dozens of miles. Instead, large commercial shuttles were everywhere. At a glance, the whole area was like a special holiday resort.
This castle-shaped building was the Heavenly River Auction Center. It was the only official auction organization of the Heavenly River Planet. It was a super-large indoor venue with a huge space and a large number of seats.
