After instructing Bennett, Han Xiao exited the quantum network and returned to the real world to supervise the exploration of Planet Pangurus.
The engineering spaceship planted stargates in outer space, and the small reconnaissance spaceship entered the atmosphere of the planet. They circled the planet from high altitudes and detected the situation on the planet's surface.
Very quickly, a report was sent back. The projection on the bridge turned into a map of Planet Pangurus, and the details were quickly being perfected. Han Xiao and a group of officers looked at the projection of the planet that was getting more and more detailed.
Not long later, all the reconnaissance spaceships returned to the fleet and completed the first step of the exploration.
The detailed parameters of the planet were recorded on the map, including the gravity level, air composition, climate, surface area, ratio of land to sea, vegetation coverage, and so on.
Apart from that, the map also had areas of different colors that represented the resources that had been detected, as well as the areas where the signals of life forms gathered.
Aurora read the report from the reconnaissance spaceship.
"This planet is rich in normal resources. Apart from that, there are many rare resources underground, such as the Black Gold Mine, Purple Silver Mine, Origin Crystal Mine, and more than ten other rare materials. These are important raw materials for the technological systems of certain magic-type Star System civilizations, and every 10,000 tons costs at least 60 Enas. This is the price in the galactic market, and this planet should have more than a trillion tons of them …
"In the huge mountain range at the north and south poles of the planet, we have detected the rare Mountain Essence, which has about 800,000 tons of it. The price of every ton is about 6,000 Enas. We have also discovered some Soul Ingots and Origin Substances that contain spiritual energy. There aren't many of them, and they are worth about 1,200,000,000 Enas … "
Han Xiao listened for a while before nodding. "Tell me the overall value of the planet."
"According to the results of the exploration, this planet is estimated to be worth about 18,000,000,000 Enas. If we discover more rare resources underground, the value will increase even further."
"It's quite valuable." Han Xiao smiled.
Based on the standards of resource rich planets, this valuation was considered to be above average. The valuation was only one aspect. Different resource rich planets produced different materials, and some rare materials even had bonus points. For example, Mountain Essence, Soul Ingots, and Origin Substances were all extremely rare.
However, while the price was good, it would take hundreds of years to extract all the resources.
In the universe, resource rich planets were the private lands of the various civilizations, and they would not be sold like barren planets.
Civilizations would slowly excavate resource planets, carry out sustainable development, and gradually seize profits.
Even if it was an advanced civilization, as long as they did not encounter an emergency situation, they would not engage in destructive mining.
Resource rich planets were an important source of income for interstellar civilizations.
Civilian miners could only go to the corners of barren, desolate planets to make a living. Civilizations did not care about the cost-effectiveness of desolate planets, so they would occasionally sell desolate planets to civilian organizations. Like the Black Star Corps, obtaining the mining rights of resource planets was already the limit of a normal private organization.
Developing the Flickering World was a great opportunity for development. After the dynasty's allies discovered a resource planet, although they had to inform the dynasty and let the dynasty take the lion's share, the exploration team would also be able to obtain a certain amount of mining rights and share a portion of the profits.
Since the Black Star Corps had discovered Planet Pangurus, they had the right to leave behind troops to mine.
The number of planets in a star field was as vast as the sea, and the benefits were enormous. To an uncivilized force, this was equivalent to the right to mine countless resource planets.
Furthermore, after discovering and reporting a certain number of resource planets, they would receive additional rewards from the empire.
However, the advantage of Planet Pangurus was not limited to its resources. In the future, it would become one of the gateways to the Garu Star Cluster. With this added value, Planet Pangurus was not an ordinary resource rich planet, and it had a huge potential for appreciation.
Seeing that Han Xiao did not say anything, Aurora continued. "We have detected a large number of life signals on this planet, and most of them are wild beasts. We do not know how many species there are, but there is one intelligent species that has signs of civilization."
As she spoke, a life-form projection appeared in front of everyone. This was the projection created by the detection spaceship after scanning the structure of the creature.
This lifeform was about three to four meters tall and had a humanoid shape. It looked similar to the elves in the universe, but there were many small differences. Its body was slender and muscular, and it wore beast skin clothes.
"According to our observations, this intelligent species is the native civilization of this planet," Aurora said. "They are in the form of a tribal civilization, and they have settlements all over the planet. They survive by hunting, and our detection spaceship has yet to come into contact with them."
Han Xiao nodded his head.
He had long known that Planet Pangurus had a rather backward native civilization, and they called themselves the 'Children of the Forest'. In truth, this title was extremely common in the universe, and there were at least 800 of them who called themselves the 'Children of the Forest'. There were also the 'Children of the Rocks', 'Children of the Mountains', and 'Children of the Sea'.
In his previous life, people were used to calling the natives by the name of the planet. This race was also known as the Pangurus Giant Elves.
"Send out a ground exploration team to come into contact with them first," Han Xiao said.
In the exploration of a Star Field, there was a sensitive issue in the universe, and that was how to deal with the natives. There were too many examples since ancient times. If a high-grade civilization wanted to mine a resource rich planet, they would be treated as invaders and be resisted by the natives.
Protecting the diversity of the universe had always been the rule of the high-grade civilizations. A Universal Civilization like the Red Empire would not slaughter the natives for the sake of mining resources. The commander-in-chief, Tarrokov, had written the rule that when they met a native civilization, they had to communicate and educate them.
Under such circumstances, the weaker the natives, the easier it would be to deal with them. Discovering a native civilization would also be the result of a mission.
…
Planet Pangurus, Qingliu Forest.
This was a dense forest filled with giant ancient trees that were fifty to sixty meters tall. The leaves formed an ocean that swayed with the wind. The sunlight that shone through the gaps in the ocean of leaves was cut into spots of light that looked like golden leaves. These spots of light swayed with the swaying of the canopy and on the ground that was full of humus.
A clear river passed through the forest, dividing it into two parts. Hundreds of six to seven meter tall animal skin tents were located on the shallow bank of the river, lined up horizontally along the river. Strings of golden-red dried fruits were hanging outside the tents, like decorations, simple and primitive. Smoke rose from the bonfires, like white snakes rising into the air.
This was the Pangurus Giant Elves Tribe, and it was filled with vitality. There were people picking fruits from the trees with baskets on their backs, and there were also people waving their branches to herd their livestock. There were also people carrying spears and wooden shields as they prepared to hunt.
"Hunters, there is not enough food in the tribe. You guys have to hunt more prey this time."
At the entrance of the tribe, the chief led a few villagers to surround the hunters who were preparing to set off.
"Haha, wait for us to return with a bountiful harvest." The old leader of the hunters laughed heartily.
The chief sighed and said, "Sigh, we were attacked by the other tribes half a year ago, and we suffered heavy casualties. Now, we can only rely on you old hunters to hunt. You guys are getting older and older, and I don't know what to do in the future."
The leader of the hunters patted the shoulder of a young man beside him and praised, "Don't worry, we are training the young ones. Duki is the fastest hunter, and he can already hunt with us. He might even be able to take over my position in the future."
Duki puffed out his chest with a proud look on his face. He had a muscular body, and he looked extremely valiant.
"What a formidable lad." "We will be relying on you guys." A group of villagers surrounded the hunters and praised them with a respectful tone.
Hearing the praises of the villagers, Duki's face was filled with confidence, and he felt proud of being a hunter.
Suddenly, his gaze passed through the crowd and caught a glimpse of a young man beside a bonfire in the distance. He was looking at him with an expression of yearning and envy. It was his good friend, Roseau.
Duki raised his arm and showed off his muscles to Roseau from afar. He blinked his eyes with delight, and the two of them laughed.
"Let's go." The leader of the hunters called out and set off with his men.
Seeing this, Duki casually waved his hand at Roseau as a form of farewell before hurriedly catching up with his men. The group of hunters entered the forest and disappeared from everyone's sight. The villagers gathered at the entrance of the village sighed and dispersed.
Roseau watched as his good friend left. He kept the smile on his face and silently fiddled with the food in the bonfire. Suddenly, he sighed.
"Hunters … sigh."
Hunters were responsible for hunting and fighting, and they were respected in the tribe. Basically, every young man in the tribe treated them as their goal, but Roseau was an exception.
He had no interest in hunting and fighting, and he had no talent in this area.
Roseau preferred to do things that were meaningless in the eyes of others, such as writing or thinking. However, this made many people in the tribe unhappy with him, thinking that he was a lazy coward who only wanted to be protected by others.
However, he also wanted to be respected like a good friend. For this reason, he worked even harder to pick fruits and sew clothes. He did everything that he could. However, these tasks were done by the elders, children, and women, and it did not change the opinions of others.
While Roseau cared about the opinions of others, he did not want to go against his conscience and do something that he was not good at just to change the opinions of others. He hoped to use other methods to contribute to the tribe … However, in the tribe, it seemed that becoming a hunter was the only goal that a young man should have.
Right at this moment, a huge gust of wind blew over.
Hu hu hu …
Ripples appeared on the small river, and the smoke rising from the bonfire was dispersed. The fine sand and pebbles on the shoal were blown up by the wind, raising dust. The animal skin tents around them were shaking non-stop, making creaking sounds.
"What's going on?" Roseau raised his head in shock. His eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded.
He had never seen such a thing before!
A black rectangular box slowly descended from the sky and hovered above the tribe. A huge shadow covered the entire tribe.
The expressions of the Pangurus Giant Elves in the tribe changed drastically.
"The God of the Forest! What is that thing? "" Is it a monster that can fly? "" Quick, run! "
This incomprehensible scene caused many of them to panic.
All of a sudden, a small hole appeared on the abdomen of the black 'monster', and a group of creatures covered in strange metallic clothes flew down and landed in the middle of the tribe.
More than a dozen warriors who had stayed behind to guard the tribe roared and rushed up. They raised their wooden spears and fiercely stabbed these creatures that had descended from the sky.
Kacha kacha!
The wooden spears broke upon contact with the armor, and sawdust flew everywhere.
After removing their helmets, half of them were warriors of the army, while the other half were players with IDs above their heads. Among them were people like Mad Blade and Hao Tian. Most of them were core members of the Sky Territory.
This group of players had accepted the mission to come into contact with the natives without killing them.
Mad Blade pressed on the galactic translator and spoke with a sincere tone.
"% * ¥∑ …"
What are you saying? The Pangurus Giant Elves were confused.
This was the first time they had come into contact with the Pangurus Giant Elves, and their language was not recorded in the database.
"Monster! Monster! "Many women shrieked. Their faces were full of fear as they picked up rocks one after another and threw them at him hysterically.
When the rocks hit the armor, they made thumping noises. Naturally, they were useless.
The players looked at each other. They could not even communicate with each other, so how were they going to appease the agitated natives? They did not have any experience in such matters.
The NPC captain with a cigarette in his mouth was very familiar with the situation. He raised the army standard blaster in his hand and fired a shot at the forest beside him.
Xiu! A blue laser shot out and pierced through dozens of trees, leaving behind a huge hole.
Following which, a huge explosion occurred in the forest, and a huge crater was formed. Trees fell one after another, creating a huge commotion.
This scene frightened all the natives. They stared blankly at the result of this attack. Disbelief and fear appeared on their faces. They stopped attacking and trembled.
"Hu …" The captain spat out a mouthful of smoke and turned to the players beside him. "Brother, did you see that? Just intimidation is enough to deal with the natives who cannot communicate with us."
Just when the atmosphere was tense and all the Pangurus Giant Elves were afraid, Roseau tried his best to remain calm. He observed these strange creatures that had appeared in an unbelievable manner, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
These creatures do not seem to be hostile?
While he could not understand what they were saying, they seemed to be talking to each other. Did these creatures possess intelligence as well?
"That should be right. They want to communicate with us as well!" Roseau's expression changed, and he hesitated for a moment before taking a deep breath and walking out.
His actions instantly attracted the attention of both sides, and everyone's gazes were focused on him.
Roseau swallowed a mouthful of saliva before shouting to his tribesmen, "Everyone, do not panic. We are not their match, but they do not seem to want to kill us. Do not anger them."
As he said that, Roseau walked in front of Frenzied Sword and looked down at this group of 'little people' that only reached his waist. Suppressing his fear, he half-knelt down so that they were at the same height. He pointed at his mouth and ears, hoping that this group of creatures that had descended from the sky would understand what he meant.
Mad Blade understood what he meant and threw out a galactic language translator before making a few hand gestures to show how to put it on.
Luo Su understood and hurriedly put it on. The translation device immediately read his thoughts.
"Do you understand now?"
Roseau's eyes lit up, and he nodded.
The captain chuckled and said, "He knows how to communicate with us. This fellow is rather smart. We will choose him as the representative of this tribe."
