Chapter 558 Kinloch
"Cut! A bunch of useless trash!" The little fat man rubbed his sore fists and feet, and finally stopped venting.
He looked at the old patriarch and spat in disgust, then adjusted the jeweled golden robe on his body, and walked up to his throne, which was more than ten meters high, pretending to be majestic with his short legs.
The appearance of this fat man resembles a werewolf, with a slightly protruding nose and a pair of pointed ears, but the height of less than 1 meter and the bloated body undoubtedly destroyed the supposed fierce momentum.
It wasn't until the fat man sat back on the main seat that the two tall werewolf guards standing around took their vigilant eyes away from the old patriarch.
"Master Kinloch, our family's protection is not good enough, and a piece of equipment has been damaged. We are willing to be punished." The old patriarch seemed to be used to this kind of treatment, and he confessed his guilt very plainly.
A trace of satisfaction flashed in the little fat man's small eyes, and he immediately revealed a greedy smile.
"Punishment is of course to be punished. The material supply of your Lions this year will be reduced by 30%, taxes will be increased by 1000%, and an additional [-] ordinary soldiers and [-] bronze warriors will be provided!"
The little fat man didn't look like he was in a panic just now, he looked like a profiteer who successfully deducted the employee's bonus.
He had already understood that although the wormhole expansion device was severely damaged, the core components were not damaged, and it only needed to pay a repair fee to restore it to its original state.
With this addition and subtraction, I can still earn a lot!
Hearing Kinloch's punishment, the old patriarch's face could not help but twitch fiercely.
The failure of this battle was entirely due to the exposure of the coordinates of the three equipments, and the fact that the troops assembled by Gemini far exceeded expectations. In fact, the root cause of the failure was the wrong information provided by Kinloch.
But he knew that at this time, the more he argued, the heavier the punishment would be.
The greedy and stingy Kinloch, who started out as a usurer, would try his best to scrape a layer of flesh off even a mosquito leg, and was notorious in Woolf's civilization.
30 ordinary warriors, 1000 bronze warriors...how many of these people can survive when sent up...
He sighed secretly for the tragic fate of his tribe, the old patriarch could only bleed in his heart, gritted his teeth and remained silent.
"Forget about this time, but next, I want you to defeat the low civilization on the opposite side as soon as possible, and open up the wormhole passage!
I have already contacted several big customers in the empire, and I am waiting to carve up the slaves and planets on the opposite side. If our God is made to wait, I will not spare you! "
The little fat man took out a delicate golden file and said casually while repairing his sharp nails.
"My lord, the enemy has obtained the coordinates of the three equipments through some channels. This time, they have planned to attack with all their strength. Although they have not succeeded, they will definitely not give up in the future, and will definitely make a comeback.
Judging from these few battles, the enemy is generally stronger than ours in terms of the number of battleships and weapon technology, and has terrible battle stars. It is by no means a weak civilization that can invade at will.
This time our clan's strength has been greatly damaged, and more than [-]% of our warships have been lost. If we have to divide our troops to defend three places, I am afraid that the enemy will destroy them one by one. "Faced with such a mindless request, the old patriarch could only helplessly explain.
"Hmph! You really are a bunch of trash. I spent so much money to buy you. If I had known earlier, I might as well have bought some cannon fodder from the machine clan!" Kinloch was still cursing.
He doesn't care why you can't do it. In Kinloch's eyes, the Lions are his hounds. The hounds can't bite their prey, so what's your value?
He bought the ownership of the Ryan family for the purpose of grabbing greater benefits. He doesn't care about your heavy casualties, he only cares about the results.
However, the three precious wormhole expansion devices are in danger, which he has to pay attention to.
This thing is not cheap, and those arms dealers are no less aggressive than Kinloch when they suck blood.
"Forget it, for the sake of your hard work, I'll add another investment, 30000 fighter reinforcements, 10000 bronze mechas, and 500 more battleships!" Kinloch said with some heartache.
In fact, except for 10000 bronze mechs among these things, the rest cost nothing at all.
The strengthening technology provided by Kinloch has long been eliminated by Woolf civilization, and the patent protection period has passed for several years, and the cost is basically negligible.
Those 500 warships were second-hand goods that were close to being scrapped, basically refitted armed merchant ships, and were reused by Kinloch at the price of scrap.
Even though it was only an insignificant amount of money for Kinloch, it was an "extra-budgetary" extra expenditure that still made him very distressed.
The old patriarch hesitated to speak when he heard Kinlok's words.
This support, at most, is to strengthen the strength of the Lions a little bit, and there is no way to crush or even defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.
But he looked at Jin Locke's face and knew that this guy would never continue to bleed, so he could only sigh again in his heart.
"Yes! The Lions will do their best to complete the task of adults!"
……
"The big merchant of the Golden Wolf tribe in the Woolf Empire? I never thought that the one who made Gemini feel like an enemy was just a greedy businessman?" develop.
From Spartacus, Nie Yun learned that the Lions and these vassals were all private properties purchased by a big merchant named Kinloch.
The Woolf civilization is a typical imperial civilization with a vast territory. Even the Lions don't know how many galaxies they span. They only know that they are the top civilization forces belonging to the fourth galaxy group of Orion Cantilever, and they have many vassal civilizations. .
These vassal civilizations were uniformly managed and supervised by the military of the Woolf Empire after they were conquered. After certain military harmless treatment, they were sold to major forces as thugs.
These harmless treatments include technology-enforced faults, industrial process restrictions, high dependence on materials, and so on.
Since there is no complete industrial chain or even food lifeline, these vassal races are firmly controlled by the Woolf Empire, and they have become a special "foreign legion" with the characteristics of Woolf civilization.
After tens of thousands of years of development and interstellar voyages, the Woolf Empire has long been separated from the original stage of relying on the official development of the territory, and more of it is the continuous expansion of private capital driven by interests.
Among them, the "Foreign Legion" system of vassal civilizations provided the empire with a beneficial and cost-effective war model. After all, vassal civilizations did not require pensions.
Fortunately, the Gemini civilization encountered only a weak vassal civilization at the beginning, and did not touch the real core area of the Woolf Empire at all.
I thought I could see the whole leopard from a glimpse, but I didn't expect to see the lice on the leopard's body. I don't know whether Gemini is lucky or unlucky.
The Woolf Empire is not only powerful, but also has a strong business atmosphere, and the power of capital is quite strong. A powerful businessman like Kinloch can not only have his own military power, but even own private "real estate" in dozens of galaxies. ".
Shortly after the Gemini wormhole was exposed, the coordinate information was sold, and was bought out by Kinloch exclusively, and preparations for conquest and development began.
Every wormhole means a piece of virgin land with unknown value, as well as civilization resources with unknown value.
It's like gambling with stones, you can never guess whether you will be worthless or rich overnight after you cut it open.
For a greedy businessman like Kinloch who dreams of making a lot of money, buying a wormhole coordinate and developing it himself is like betting on stones, full of infinite possibilities...
And such a powerful Lion family is just one of the many vassal civilizations of the Woolf Empire. Unfortunately, they were bought by the greedy and stingy businessman Kinlok, and they can only serve as pawns for the continuation of the tribe.
Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are dogs!
"As expected of the boundless universe, with thousands of races, my vision... is still a bit small!" Nie Yun sighed with his hands behind his back, but his eyes were full of excitement.
He thought that what he opened was just a door, but the other side gave him a whole world...
