When Xiao Ran asked Bassac to recommend someone from his planet to join Prometheus, he did not think too much about it and agreed to recommend someone from his planet to join Prometheus. In fact, to Bassac, he really did not need to think too much about it. The development of the army was an urgent problem, and as a Berserker from a warlike race, Bassac did not feel that there was any problem in recommending someone from his own race to this place.
He believed in the combat power and potential of the people from his planet. As long as they were from the Berserker race, every one of them was a natural warrior. This was because they had all learned the inherited martial arts of the Berserker race since they were young. Even more powerful people had powerful martial arts passed down from their own family. A true genius of the Berserker race could even explode with all the power of their blood and vigor. They could also maintain absolute consciousness when they went berserk. Although it was unlikely that there would be such a genius among just five people, the Berserkers who had inherited the martial arts would definitely complement each other when they piloted a mech with a human-machine integrated system.
On the other hand, Nalor was not as confident as Bassac. Nalor lived in a home with a higher level of technology, but her personal abilities were not as good as the Berserkers. Although she was much stronger than the people from Earth, unlike the Berserkers who had inherited their race, most of the people in Nalor's home were civilians. Even if they could obtain awakening skills, there was no guarantee that the randomly selected people after the recommendation would be able to adapt to Prometheus' life.
Xiao Ran also understood this. After all, a home like Nalor's should be normal and common. In a situation where there were no enemies and wars, a race where all the Berserkers were soldiers even in peacetime should still be a minority in the universe. However, Xiao Ran, who did not intend to recommend an Earthling, did not want to give all ten slots to a race that was inferior in other aspects except for their talent in combat.
In order to develop the army, it was certainly possible to rely on a certain advantage in the beginning. However, if only one advantage was relied on, then the advantage would also become a fatal disadvantage. Looking at the current situation, it was obvious that the majority of the pilots had specialised in Combat. Adding 5 more would only make the structure of the battle squad even more unbalanced. Therefore, Nalor's clansmen would appear to be a lot more important in this situation.
The best choice was to train a few sniper or firepower type pilots to cooperate with the berserkers to form a reasonable team, although Nalor was worried. However, that was only because he was worried that those people would affect the team and the legion. Therefore, under Xiao Ran's confirmation, the ten members were decided. Five Bassac's people and five Nalor's people. As for Xiao Ran's clansmen, there was not a single earthling.
Although the decision had been made, Xiao Ran was not in a hurry to register the recommendation. This was because in addition to the ten designated planets that could not be designated, Xiao Ran could also recommend ten people from the exclusive faction territory. Moreover, they were designated personnel.
In fact, Xiao Ran did not need to think too much about which ten people to recommend. The members of the Skeleton Squad were already five. In addition to the four people in the S.M.S. small MacORSS-grade bridge, there were only nine people. Even if Gramsci from the Fairy Squad was included, there were only ten people. Moreover, it was a team with their own responsibilities, heavy firepower, assault, support, and sniping. There was a certain degree of tacit understanding between them.
In the case of the legion being established, one battleship was definitely not enough. Although there was no need to worry about where to get a battleship, the operators of the battleship must definitely be replenished. The four people in the bridge were the replenishment of the battleship. They led the Skeleton Squad directly into the mission. Even if the mission of the corresponding difficulty would bring them some trouble, the possibility of getting through it without any danger was greater.
However, if possible, Xiao Ran was certainly willing to remove one person from S.M.S. and replace it with someone who was also in S.M.S. But a strong pilot who was not in his hands, a pilot who had the ability to break the MacORSS-grade single-handedly, piloting a body that was even worse than the VF-25 fighter. You can imagine how this person's piloting skills were. Perhaps he was not inferior to the current Xiao Ran.
Although Xiao Ran had already thought of the people to recommend, he also wanted to talk to them face to face. After all, each mission world was not a place for tourism. Every mission may represent an inescapable battle. Whether they are willing or not, they still need to consult their own opinions.
Until Law returned from Lao Luo's place, everyone went together to the Prometheus base that was currently empty except for a portal and a building in the legion's center. The entire base looked so bleak inside and outside. There was not even a signboard or a staff member to look at the door. But even so, Xiao Ran and the others' mood was not affected at all. They happily entered the legion base.
"This is our legion base, although there is basically nothing now." It was also the first time Xiao Ran came to the Burning Legion base. Looking at the empty steel base, he smiled helplessly at the crowd. "But once we have the war achievement points and materials, it will be very easy to build it."
Currently, Xiao Ran did not have a lot of war achievement points. After establishing the army, he only had a little more than a million war achievement points left. If he wanted to strengthen so many people, it was simply impossible. If he wanted to build the army, this little bit of war achievement points would not be of much use. Furthermore, he had not calculated the war achievement points needed to build the new mecha.
As soon as Xiao Ran's voice fell, everyone turned their heads to Law in an instant. Countless pairs of eyes stared at Law, making him feel a little scared. He scratched his head and laughed foolishly. "I know, I know. Leave the war achievement points to me. I will spend a day to see what level the C-grade body sold in the trading area is and try to get enough war achievement points before the mission starts."
Everyone nodded. Bassac patted Law on the shoulder and said, "I will go with you when the time comes."
Xiao Ran also said to Law: "Thank you for your hard work, we have to hurry up with this matter. You know that there are so many of us now, and the income of war merit points is limited. We can't cut the flow. We can only find ways to open up the huge gap and earn war merit points from other participants to meet our consumption and the construction of the legion."
Law also felt the heavy pressure from Xiao Ran's words. In fact, Xiao Ran did not need to say it too clearly. Everyone knew that the consumption of the entire team was basically borne by Xiao Ran alone. However, because the harvest of war achievement points this time was not much, and there was almost nothing valuable that could be sold, it made them feel embarrassed during this rest period.
It was not that Xiao Ran did not think about recovering some warships in the world of revolutionary machines, but the warships of that world were really too bad in Xiao Ran's eyes. They were so bad that even Xiao Ran felt that they were not good enough. Such a warship really might not be bought by a legion. If they were recovered, they might accidentally fall into their hands. Wouldn't that be a waste of war achievement points?
The legion didn't want it, and the squad wouldn't buy it. If the warship of the world of revolutionary machines wanted to be used in the squad mode, it also needed to consume war achievement points to make major changes to the whole warship, including transforming the hangar and ejection port suitable for the use of MS. In this way, it would consume a lot of war achievement points. It was precisely because Xiao Ran thought of this that he did not have any thoughts about those useless warships of the world of revolutionary machines.
In fact, after Xiao Ran established the legion and connected to World F of Ultra Space-Time Fortress, he already had the most stable source of obtaining a large amount of war achievement points. That was, by selling a batch of specialties in the territory at a low price and a high price, such as warships, airframes, or the special ammunition of that world, MED bombs, and so on.
When bringing things from the territory to Prometheus, he had to pay a part of the fee, but this part of the fee was actually not high. A new MACROSS class warship only required to pay between 1.5 million and 3 million war achievement points. According to the price of a new MACROSS class warship, it was about 10% to 20% of the service fee. However, this did not mean that Xiao Ran really had to pay that much.
If this new MACROSS Battleship was built by the territory, then Xiao Ran would have to pay for it. There was no way he could build a new MACROSS Battleship within a mission cycle. As for how long it would take, Xiao Ran would have to pay for the labor costs of building the new MACROSS Battleship out of his own pocket. Wouldn't that be equivalent to the war merit points converted from taxes?
But there was another way, and that was to plunder the other forces in World F of Ultra Space-Time Fortress, such as the Earth Unified Army, various other ship fleets, and border forces. However, in the end, the disadvantages of this approach were definitely more than the benefits. Once he became the public enemy of the whole world, then the territory would also become useless.
Although materials could be transported to Prometheus unconditionally without paying any war achievement points, Xiao Ran was also responsible for the cost of mining and exploration. It was just that the materials were sent to Prometheus in the form of materials, and the tax consumption was naturally negligible. However, one thing was for sure, and that was that there was no such thing as a free lunch. No matter how much he had to pay, there was always a reward.
