Whether it’s star thieves or pioneers, now no one dares to pressure the indigenous people anymore—the consequences are just too severe.
Once there was a pioneer team that was really resource-poor, and they robbed a settlent of the indigenous people, even killing over a dozen people.
As a result, the indigenous people in that area collectively refused to supply materials to all pioneer teams.
In the end, the pioneer team had to pull soone from that team out and punish them publicly—this was considered an individual action.
Killing the responsible person was out of the question—the identity of the pioneers was just more noble than that of the indigenous people.
Pioneers voluntarily take risks to explore the entire planet’s resources, while the indigenous people are "sinful followers"!
It’s just that public resentnt was too great, so they had to find a "temporary worker" to make a token gesture.
Similar incidents have occurred a few more tis, but none as impactful as this one.
So strictly speaking, Zarif Star now hosts the coexistence of three forces: pioneers, star thieves, and indigenous people.
The indigenous people have the weakest combat power and are much less organized.
Yet both of the other forces are striving to win them over.
When Qu Jianlei received this information, he actually had a lot of complaints.
Do you know what "freeze to death without dismantling a house" ans, or what "people’s army" ans?
Do you know what "national guard" is, or what "ard rescue operations" are?
However, he didn’t need to be too literal; it’s just that this civilization has such cultural genes.
The important thing was learning through inquiries: there were originally four Celestial level pioneer teams that ca to this planet together.
Besides Black Rain, there were Diamond, Crimson, and Quantum teams as well.
Initially, each team had top-level Supres stationed for about ten years, and then they all left one after the other.
The specific whereabouts of the Supres weren’t very clear to these people; the details were sowhat vague.
But what is certain is that a Celestial level pioneer team must have a Supre Warrior; otherwise, they wouldn’t qualify for an application.
What Qu Jianlei was most concerned about was: is there a Supre among the star thieves?
Nobody could give a definite answer to this question; Mu Huahua only shared a rumor with him.
When the star thieves seized the control center, not only were many internal agents hidden, but there was also a suspected presence of a Supre.
If it weren’t for this, the control center wouldn’t have been lost so quickly, especially since there were three A-level warriors stationed at the ti.
Speaking of A-level warriors, each Celestial level pioneer team has two A-levels stationed there.
There are also four Profound level pioneer teams, each with one A-level, making a total of twelve A-level warriors among the pioneers.
However, over the years of combat, one A-level warrior has died, two were seriously injured, and two mildly injured.
As for how many A-level warriors the star thieves have, Mu Huahua doesn’t really know.
She only knows for sure that the seventh leader of the star thieves, Su Dafeng, is an A-level warrior with the Wind Attribute.
The seventh leader’s perception ability has caused significant damage to the pioneer teams, making the pioneers grit their teeth in hate whenever they ntion him.
The harm he caused is one thing, but the key is that his rare and powerful attribute ranks him only seventh.
Given the star thieves’ emphasis on mutated attributes, it’s impossible for him to be ranked at the bottom of the A-level warriors.
So even on a conservative estimate, the star thieves should have at least eight A-level warriors.
According to the current combat power of the pioneer teams, they could indeed fight the star thieves to the death.
But there’s a catch: these A-level warriors co from four Celestial level and four Profound level pioneer teams.
They don’t belong to a single force, making integration difficult, whereas the opposing star thieves are united like a rope.
Especially for the Profound level pioneer teams, an A-level is top-level combat power, and losing one is painful and could even result in a downgrade.
Additionally, with the star thieves relying on the control center, their firepower is exceedingly strong, and the chances of winning in a full-scale war are very slim.
In fact, even up to now, the pioneer teams aren’t sure if there is a Supre among the opposing forces.
If there is a Supre among the star thieves, attacking would be like delivering themselves on a platter.
Mu Huahua believes that a Supre Warrior is treated very highly in the Imperial, making it almost impossible for one to beco a star thief, but... what if?
The Imperial has faced more than one rebellion, and Supres have participated in rebellions more than once or twice.
So have ambition, others have grievances... Life is always full of surprises, can a Supre really avoid them all?
Qu Jianlei finally asked, "Wouldn’t those Celestial level pioneer teams send soone to check on the situation?"
"Who knows what the Celestial level teams are thinking?" Mu Huahua replied with a bitter smile, "We are just at Earth level."
The number of Black Rain’s A-level warriors exceeds even the B-levels of Blazing Fire, with a Profound level gap in between.
Qu Jianlei, after thinking for a while, asked, "I heard the Imperial has sent another A-level warrior; have you heard anything?"
Hearing this, Mu Huahua was invigorated, "It seems there are two, one with the Fire Attribute was injured, and there’s another with the Earth Attribute."
Then she curiously glanced at Qu Jianlei, "How did you know about this?"
"I happened to be passing by," Qu Jianlei answered casually, "wanted to gather so supplies, but found they were strictly checking, so I quickly fled."
Mu Huahua asked in surprise, "Star pirates are strictly managed, how do you plan to get supplies?"
"By killing star thieves," Qu Jianlei responded naturally, "if they can rob, then I can rob too."
Luckily, I didn’t make a move on this guy! Mu Huahua felt a bit fortunate, she believed he would do as he says.
Then she realized another issue, "You already have so many supplies... still want to rob?"
Qu Jianlei answered calmly, "I feel it’s getting a bit tight."
Five days after the successful test run of the hydro generator, the Blazing Fire Pioneer Team surprisingly started making Nutrient Injections!
Nutrient Injections are not very difficult to prepare, but Blazing Fire had hoarded a lot of expired Nutrient Injections.
Many effective components in expired Nutrient Injections can be re-extracted.
Adding so local extracts, making Nutrient Injections with almost the sa effect is not a big problem.
After all, they have been pioneering here for twenty-six years and have a deep understanding of many local specialties.
Qu Jianlei tasted a tube and actually found the flavor was quite good.
Two days later, people from Black Rain arrived; two B-level Warriors and so Maintenance Masters. They heard Blazing Fire made a hydro generator.
Blazing Fire internally issued a gag order but couldn’t hide it from Black Rain.
They are not only employers but also powerful. Once energy supplies are replenished, it benefits everyone.
The visitors were two middle-aged n, one with the Gold Attribute, the other with the Fire Attribute.
After seeing the hydro generator hidden under the vines, both were genuinely impressed, "Blazing Fire is indeed impressive."
Mu Guoguo did not steal Qu Jianlei’s credit, stating explicitly: I just encountered such an expert.
However, to Black Rain’s people, Blazing Fire’s credit is real—the least we can say is we don’t have such luck.
The two also gathered so information about Qu Jianlei’s background but didn’t raise any doubts.
The generator’s effect is right there in front of them, questioning would just be asking for trouble.
Black Rain wouldn’t shy away from provoking a B-level, but... don’t they still need sothing from people here?
They collected the blueprint made by Qu Jianlei, and after the Maintenance Masters reviewed it, they consulted Qu Jianlei on so issues.
Mainly about the rotor speed, field strength settings, so design formulas, and precautions to avoid.
Once cleared up, they expressed that with these blueprints as references, it’s not difficult to make a generator, and building a reservoir is simple.
However, both of them were still eager to invite Black Heaven for an on-site visit to help Black Rain with their design.
When Qu Jianlei learned that Black Rain’s camp was over two thousand kiloters away, he hesitated: Why don’t you go back and start working?
Black Rain wouldn’t be unreasonable in imposing, the technical personnel stayed another day, ensured no issues before leaving.
Blazing Fire people were happy that Qu Jianlei wished to stay, since having another B-level Warrior ans more strength, right?
However, Mu Huahua was curious and gossipingly asked Qu Jianlei, "Isn’t the Celestial Pioneer Team safer?"
Qu Jianlei thought for a mont and answered, "I don’t really like interacting with A-level Warriors, it gives a sense of insecurity."
"This is...," Mu Huahua found it amusing, "Isn’t being with A-level Warriors actually safer?"
Thinking it over, she tentatively asked, "Have you been bullied by A-levels?"
Qu Jianlei mainly didn’t want A-level Warriors to discover he was of the sa rank.
After all, in the Celestial Pioneer Team, there’s the presence of the Supre. If anyone discovers his attributeless secret, the consequences would be hard to predict.
This is the poor sense of security, Qu Jianlei didn’t believe his re Foundation Establishnt could resist the covet of a Golden Core.
He laughed, "I’ve never been bullied... I’ve killed A-level Warriors."
"Hiss~" Mu Huahua gasped upon hearing this, "B-level killing A-level?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei answered matter-of-factly, he indeed was just a B-level Warrior when he killed Sander.
However, he didn’t want to continue the topic, "You seem well-inford about star pirates’ movents, do you have any spies planted?"
Mu Huahua nodded, "There are so informants, is there sothing you need?"
When a Pioneer Team controls a center, it’s inevitable to supervise the indigenous people sohow, developing a few informants is quite normal.
Qu Jianlei had already prepared a reason, "I’m curious about the spaceship from that day, could you find out what supplies were on it?"
Mu Huahua laughed upon hearing, "You’re really unusually obsessed with supplies, we are in the middle of inquiring about this."
Qu Jianlei casually added, "By the way, find out what kinds of people were on it and what beca of them."
"Hmm?" Mu Huahua was surprised this ti, "That’s hard to find out... You’re not from the spaceship, are you?"
Qu Jianlei looked at her astonished, "Did any B-level escape from the spaceship?"
Mu Huahua shook her head, "I haven’t heard of that, but it’s hard to say, why are you asking about these people?"
Qu Jianlei seriously answered, "Certainly asking them how to leave... do you think we can last for a few more years?"
