The development and integration of Original Federation is the basis for maintaining the stability of Faction Territory. Only a stable Faction Territory can turn from a simple investment into a reverse return. What Xiao Ran has done It's just that some Merit Points was consumed in exchange for Retention Time that developed the camp, and what was obtained was indeed the substantial increase in Original Federation's technology accumulation during the war stage and the unique technology of this world.
Gundanium Alloy Alpha and upgraded version Gundanium Alloy Gamma, the third-generation Gundanium Alloy that is already under development, the new C-class Minovsky reactor that can be mass-produced, and the special model can even reach B - level, and according to Minovsky reactor related Mental Power Frame, Funnels, I Positional Shield, etc., new mass-produced warships are all the rewards after this technological explosion.
Xiao Ran can completely let Anaheim produce a large number of B-class Mecha and deliver it to him. After selling Prometheus and finally switching to Merit Points to complete the harvest cycle of investment and return, it can also be regarded as giving Xiao Ran a truly stable source of Merit Points income.
As for the ship group, the purchased Retention Time has also developed into a lively technological and economic exchange center. Guests from all over the world gathered here every Tiandu. For this reason, the ship group had to withdraw more ships. Many islands are used for use. Those things brought from Prometheus are sought after by all the ships in the galaxy, including the earth, and the powerful and wealthy people bring Xiao Ran countless resources and various unique technologies., everything is provided by Xiao Ran, and the money earned naturally also belongs to Xiao Ran. After converting a part of the fixed proportion of tax into Merit Points, the returns will be further. It far exceeded his investment, not to mention that after all the remaining larger portion of profits that could not be converted were filled into the shipping group, even if the shipping group's taxes were withdrawn by Xiao Ran, the shipping group was not only not affected but also had more economic income.
The one million immigrants have been completed. Most of them have joined the huge factory being built by LAI, and the rest have been filled in various industries. With so many people joining the ship group, a new city has been built near the main island on the ground of the ship group to accommodate these immigrants and residents of other islands besides the main island. If there are residents of the main island who are willing to leave the bustling city, they can freely choose to move out of the main island and live in a wider city outside.
According to the plan, the entire city will be built around the main island. Although only a small part has been completed so far, it will be easy to accommodate one million immigrants. When the city is fully built, it will be able to accommodate more than five times the current population, which is a super huge city with a population of nearly 60 million.
The sudden influx of more than one million immigrants has been a huge burden for a small place with only more than 12 million people in the boat group, especially in terms of economy and life. You can sell all at Xiao Ran from After all Prometheus's money, except for taxes, was filled into the shipping group, the money earned was enough to allow the shipping group to get through the most difficult period and get on the right track. It also allowed the shipping group to get back on track and then allocate funds to start building a huge factory that was named LAI but actually belonged to the shipping group.
A huge asteroid-level factory located in the universe, built after learning the Original Federation world's method of transforming asteroids, is currently orbiting Bug homeworld according to an accurately calculated orbit. Although two years are not enough for this huge factory to be completely completed, this factory already has basic production capacity and is fully capable of independently mass-producing VF Series fighters.
At the end of the two-year Retention Time, all Xiao Ran's investment, including all the consumption of purchasing Retention Time, seemed to have been recovered. As long as the already prepared no less than one hundred units of C-class Mass-produced Mecha Astray NA produced by Original Federation, if the same quantity of VF-25 produced by the fleet is brought back to Prometheus for sale, then the investment will turn into a return in the blink of an eye, greatly enriching Xiao Ran's wallet, and as long as there is a market in Prometheus, then this return will be permanent.
This is a return that can be seen and can be cashed on the spot, but what cannot be seen is the true stability of Original Federation and the great development of the fleet. If before Xiao Ran purchased Retention Time, Original Federation's technology score was only fifty, and its prosperity level was also only fifty, then the current technology score can reach one hundred, and its prosperity level can reach seventy.
As for the fleet, because of too many things and Technicians's assistance to Original Federation, the technological development here has slowed down a lot. Originally, if the technical score was 100 points, now it is only 110 points at most. However, the new VF-30 has begun actual combat testing. In order to be truly mass-produced and used in combat, it is necessary to wait until the new aircraft is truly stabilized. However, the technical reserves and industrial strength have grown horribly. In exchange for those things from Prometheus, I don't know how many shipping groups and Border Force have brought out their own unique technologies at the bottom of the box and handed them over to the shipping groups. However, they have not really taken the appropriate time to take out these technologies and study them carefully.
Industrial power, naturally, is the huge asteroid factory. Now the fleet itself has acquired the ability to mass-produce fighters. If the factory is completely completed, not to mention the fighters, even the Macross-class large ships can be manufactured by themselves, not to mention the middle ones such as the Tianjin Level 4 battleships.
The investment is the return. Now Xiao Ran has realized the powerful advantages of Faction Territory. No wonder Luo said that the legion with Faction Territory is definitely a powerful legion. It simply gives him the support of two worlds. If he can't develop the legion to be more powerful under such circumstances, then there is really something wrong with his head.
Until the end of the two years, Xiao Ran also returned to Prometheus. Everything that happened in the past two years seemed like a dream. It was only one day that passed in Prometheus, but it was a real two years in the two Faction Territory.
Today's Xiao Ran team and Jeffrey team can be said to have changed their guns from gun to gun. Most of their bodies have been improved or directly replaced. For example, Naluo's MK-II Gundam has undergone major changes. Except for the Energy System, all the modifications were made after restoring the prototype. The original MK-II Gundam actually did not have many changes except for the addition of the GN-BIT. After the GN-BIT was removed, it looked a lot cleaner.
However, the new modification is not mainly to change the body itself, but to install more thrusters and I-Field defense devices on the body, replace the B-class high-output Minovsky reactor, add Mirage System, multi-barreled Gatling gun on the wrist, more thrusters, etc., and the monitor and detection device on the head are replaced with products produced by the ship group.
In fact, these changes cannot be seen from the outside, and there are no changes in functionality. What really changed the MK-II Gundam was a special multi-functional artillery backpack manufactured later. This artillery backpack is the real core of this change, making Naluo's MK-II a true ultra-long-range Sniper Type machine, which also has extremely high speed and defense performance.
The body of the backpack is actually a general-purpose drone, but its shape is completely different from GHOST Drone. This is a powerful drone that combines UC System technology and fleet technology. It is somewhat similar to the backpack component lift of 00 Gundam but has some differences, emphasizing defense and firepower.
The first form of this backpack is a normal fighter plane. It has an ultra-long-range high-energy sniper cannon suspended directly below the fighter plane. It also has Solar Furnace and C-class Thermonuclear Energy Engine dual engines. The wings are vertical flying wings like the elevator of 00 Gundam, but they can rotate through nodes. The front also has the ability to launch high-energy artillery strikes. The front of the nose There is a hybrid Gatling gun with live ammunition on the side, and a row of twelve micro-Missile Launchers mounted on the top of the fuselage. But in addition, there are ten small shield-shaped GN-BITs loaded in the space inside the fighter. The ten GN-BITs are only as big as the body's fist, and they are all diamond-shaped. In addition to emitting GN Particles beams, they can also be used as defensive shields.
The fighter aircraft will have its own combat capabilities when separated from the MK-II body. It was originally designed as a great complement to the Sniper Type aircraft and can be used for independent combat, cover, and even reconnaissance and enemy locking.
The second form is the backpack form. Like the 00 Gundam, after combination, the wings of the fighter will fit on the shoulders of the MK-II Gundam. However, in the combined state, the nose is on the upper body and the fuselage is on the bottom. Once the combination is started, the nose will pop up like the core fighter and then fold and cover the rear.
The flying wing can be used as a shoulder cannon when combined and also serves as a shield. The ultra-long-range high-energy sniper rifle of the fighter jet can be used by the main body of the aircraft under any circumstances. The head of the fighter jet can even be directly ejected from the front again after combination through the built-in Mechanical Arm and separation device to cover the head of the MK-II Gundam. This greatly enhances the detection capabilities of the MK-II Gundam and also allows the MK-II Gundam to use the Gatling Hybrid Cannon on the nose.
Due to the limitations of the body itself, the MK-II body is not equipped with Solar Furnace, so only one Particle Storage Tank is used and charged by the backpack after combination. In this way, even in the separated state, the MK-II Gundam body without Solar Furnace can also use GN Particles.
As for Skull Squadron, except for Glan Glan and Justice Gundam, which have also undergone some adaptive adjustments and modifications, all other fighters have been replaced. Many VF-30 stabilization technologies have been added to the original VF-27, such as the new built-in ultra-small Floating Weapons, etc., carefully adjusting the limits of the body itself.
These improvements actually troubled Xiao Ran, Luo and everyone else. They obviously had the ability to make B-class Mecha, but they had to exercise restraint due to the limitations of the pilots themselves. In the end, they could only come up with this ultra-limited C-class mecha for use. However, one day when everyone reaches the level of B, it will not be as simple as replacing a shotgun with a cannon.
