Chapter 108: Attack on Kaguya Elf Clan Countdown 【 First Watch · Request from pre-order all pre-orders 】 (Ch 108)

In an unknown distant galaxy, a T3 Elf Dragon-class light aircraft carrier starship suddenly appeared.
But its miserable appearance is just too miserable.
Cracks appeared in many places on the hull, and the entire armor above the hull looked like it was burnt, appearing charred black and showing signs of dissolution and damage.
There was also a crack on the belly of the ship that was three hundred meters long and ten meters wide at its widest point.
Small-scale explosions even occurred from time to time at some locations of the ships, and black smoke continued to emerge.
Bridge
“Cough cough cough…” Commander Marquis O’Casey got up from the ground. His military uniform had several holes due to the collision just now.
He looked at the chaotic bridge around him. The originally bright lighting system had been completely paralyzed, and only the emergency lights could be used.
“Report the starship situation, report the starship situation quickly!” Commander Marquis O’Casey shouted loudly.
After hearing the commander’s call, the elf soldiers who were still confused and dazed gradually regained consciousness and began to do their work.
“Report, the energy intensity of the main engine core reactor is only 37%…”
“The energy shield has been completely depleted. The damage to the ship’s armor has reached 76%…, one-tenth of the cabins have been sealed, 179 elven soldiers have died, and the remaining soldiers have been injured to varying degrees.”
“The ship’s defensive firepower system is 91% damaged…”
One piece of bad news after another describes the current situation of this T3 Elf Dragon-class light aircraft carrier starship.
Commander Marquis O’Casey stumbled towards his captain’s chair.
Although he and his flagship managed to escape, but… his fleet was completely destroyed.
This time when he returns, he will carry shame… shame nailed to his body.
Commander Marquis O’Casey sat in the captain’s chair.
Snap
Several cracks appeared on the captain’s chair, as if it would collapse at any moment.
“Qingyuan Fleet… Sun He… good… good… you are really good… I lost this battle. But next time… I will definitely bring a stronger fleet to defeat you!”
Commander Marquis O’Casey pressed his hand on the broken pieces of the armrest of the captain’s chair, and blood dyed the captain’s chair red, but the pain in his hand was not as great as the resentment in the heart of the Marquis Commander.
…
Uninhabited star field No. 73 in the Ave system
Qingyuan Phoenix-class aircraft carrier starship bridge
Sun He looked silently at the wreckage of the T2 Wind Elf-class light aircraft carrier starship in the distance.
“That T3 Elf Dragon-class light aircraft carrier starship escaped. It’s a pity that we can’t track the signal of the space jump.” Sun He leaned helplessly on the sofa.
When 1,000 units of magnetic storm missiles exploded in that star field, they shattered all the T2 Wind Elf-class light aircraft carrier starships.
The T3 Elf Dragon-class light aircraft carrier starship relied on its own energy shield and finally held on until the last space jump was completed and it escaped in the last few seconds.
Sun He looked at the remaining elven starships. Some of them had surrendered, while others were still fighting desperately.
However, due to the withdrawal of their own flagship, more and more of the remaining elven starships surrendered.
Some of the surrendered elves, for the sake of their self-esteem, would comfort themselves that they surrendered to Princess Sherrill, not the human fleet.
“Tang Yuan, I’ll give you three hours to finish the battle, and then arrange for the Giant Whale-class heavy interstellar freighter to enter the scene and take away all the ‘trophies’ that can be taken away, and arrange for the Guardian Angel-class light interstellar medical ship to treat the wounded on the starship.
After the battle is completely over, let the Giant Turtle-class industrial ships repair the damaged starships.
Also, submit a battle report of this battle to me as soon as possible.”
Sun He has now begun issuing orders to clean up the battlefield.
“Um… Commander… about those prisoners…” Princess Cheryl walked up to Sun He hesitantly.
Sun He knew that what she wanted to talk about was the treatment of the prisoners.
“Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person who would torture and kill prisoners. As long as they behave themselves, I will treat them as normal prisoners.
In addition, Judy, you will be in charge of the affairs of these captives. If there are those who are willing to surrender, you can train them to become Sheryl’s subordinates.
If they are stubborn, you can let them stay in the prison area honestly, but you can’t let them stay there in vain, and arrange some work for them to deal with the recovered starship wreckage when the time comes.”
If there are any of them with bad attitudes, they will be locked up in a small dark room.” Sun He gave the task of dealing with these prisoners to guard Judy.
Judy is also an elf, and using elves to govern elves is the best way.
Judy also understood what Sun He meant: “I understand. I will take care of the problem of these prisoners.”
Sun He leaned on the sofa, rubbing his chin with his hands, as if he was thinking about something.
“Commander, are you thinking about the Kaguya elf galaxy?” Judy asked from the side.
Sun He nodded. They had officially stood on the opposite side of the current rulers of the Hyuga elves.
“Retrieve the data of the Hyuga elves’ galaxy.” Sun He said.
Secretary Qiao Rongrong at the side retrieved the data of the Hyuga elves’ galaxy.
“The Huiye elves own a total of eight small star systems, with an annual output value of about 3 billion units of crystal ore and a total population of 18 billion.
There are a total of five legion-level fleets, but now one of them has been annihilated by us. Although a flagship T3-level Elf Dragon-class light aircraft carrier starship escaped, it can be regarded as an annihilation battle.
The remaining four fleets have a total of nearly 1,200 starships, of which about 100 are T3 starships, accounting for about 12% of the total.
The military budget of the Hyuga elves has always accounted for 42% of their annual output value. Due to the constant civil war and oppression from surrounding elven tribes, the living standard index of the tribe’s civilians is: 0.4.
The technological level is equivalent to the late stage of T3 technology, but among the large group of elves, it is considered to be at the bottom. ”
Sun He looked at Princess Sheryl and Judy beside him.
This is the data that Qiao Rongrong found. The specific situation still depends on the two Kaguya elves.
“That’s basically it.” Princess Cheryl nodded.
“What does the living standard index of 0.4 for this ethnic group’s civilians mean?” Sun He asked, pointing at the number.
Qiao Rongrong explained: “This is a way of calculating the living standards of civilians in major civilizations in the universe. 1 is the passing line, which means that the living environment and quality of life are very good.”
“Is this data accurate?” Sun He asked doubtfully.
“When calculating the data, the top 10% of the data will be removed first. So there is basically no problem with the data.” Qiao Rongrong said.
“But haven’t the elves always been rumored to be very wealthy and live a good life?” Sun He asked puzzledly.
The passing value is 1, but the Kaguya elves only have 0.4, less than half of the passing value.
“This is only the data for the Kaguya elves. If it is for the entire elf race, it is 0.8. There are actually only a few groups in the elves that have reached this average value of 1.” Qiao Rongrong explained.
Sun He looked at Princess Cheryl and Judy beside him.
“Princess Sherrill is from the royal family, so she may not be very clear about the living environment of the lower-class elves. And I was born into the lower-class elves.
Perhaps according to the rumors in your human civilization, we elves are living a very good life. In fact, the life of the lower-class elves can only barely achieve food and clothing.
Now the armament budget of the Hyuga elves has reached 42% of the annual output value, and everyone’s life has become even more difficult.
But compared to the life of human civilians, it is still much better. Of course, the treatment of female soldiers in the Qingyuan Fleet is an exception. The treatment of female soldiers in the Qingyuan Fleet has exceeded the passing line to a certain extent. “Judy recalled her life in the Qingyuan Fleet.
That’s just too beautiful.
Sun He nodded. According to his understanding, among the galaxy civilization forces, it is normal for the military budget to account for less than 20% of their annual output value. Exceeding 20% ​​means that this force is vigorously developing its fleet and may be in a cold war with other forces.
If it exceeds 40%, it often means that this force is in a state of war all year round; if it exceeds 60%, it means that this force is already fighting fiercely; if it exceeds 80%, people’s livelihood is basically in a mess. After all, it has reached the stage of a war to destroy a country and a race, so who would still care about people’s livelihood.
The Galactic Alliance’s average annual arms budget is 57%, a rather dangerous figure.
“By the way, what is the living standard index of civilians in the Galactic Alliance?” Sun He asked curiously.
“0.1.” Qiao Rongrong said the number without hesitation, and finally added: “0.1 is the lowest, and it is impossible to calculate below that.”
Sun He covered his face, it turns out that the Galactic Alliance is so miserable.
“It’s no wonder. You humans have a strong reproductive capacity. A female with a lifespan of 100 years can give birth to five to ten babies on average. Now that lifespans have increased, the reproductive efficiency has become even more terrifying.
The total population of your Galactic Alliance now seems to have exceeded 800 trillion, and the resources of a resource star are limited. According to your mining efficiency in ancient times, you can mine for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
However, with the current mining efficiency, a resource star can be fully mined in a few hundred years or even a few decades; and for planets like those that can be habitable, there is also a limit.
The good ones can accommodate billions of people, the bad ones can accommodate thousands or millions of people, but once overloaded, the lifespan of these habitable planets will be greatly shortened.
This requires more resource stars and more habitable planets; this is equivalent to an unsolvable cycle.
As for the so-called infinite energy, even the current antimatter, dark matter, controlled nuclear fusion, quantum, electrons, etc. will actually be exhausted one day and require a continuous supply of resources.
In the past, we thought that energy was “unlimited” only because the energy sources required for technological creations at that time were very small. But now the energy required for starship machinery is beyond imagination. “Princess Sheryl, as a researcher, explained everything.
Everyone feels the same way.
It can be said that all galaxy civilizations in the universe are trapped in such a vicious circle.
Seize resources, consume resources, seize resources again, and consume resources again.
Unless someone is willing to kill most of the civilians of his own race in order to reduce resource consumption, not many leaders have the courage to do such a thing.
“Okay, there’s no point in saying this now. As long as we live a good life, that’s enough.” Sun He waved his hand casually.
He is too lazy and doesn’t want to care about the affairs of other forces.
He just wants to manage his own little piece of land.
“So do you really want to launch an attack on the Kaguya elves?” Tang Yuan looked at Sun He cautiously.
Destroying an enemy’s legion-level fleet and attacking someone else’s galactic civilization are two completely different concepts.
“Of course, I’ve even thought about the time.”
Sun He looked at everyone’s curious looks.
