Chapter 1533: Chapter 500: The Art of Feeding Kills
It’s already enough to create more than three fleets like the one she’s currently displaying.
Moreover, it’s foreseeable that in the future, she will rely on this tactic to keep increasing the number of fleets at her disposal, and she will obtain several times or even dozens of times more resources.
If she can’t find a suitable reason, she won’t be able to convince the Three Great Civilizations.
With the suspicion of the Three Great Civilizations, no matter how loyal she appears, they will still doubt the whereabouts of her enormous resources.
To secretly swallow them, they must be "laundered," making sure the Three Great Civilizations do not suspect the destination of this batch of resources.
And the best way, naturally, is to consume it directly in front of the Three Great Civilizations!
She has the witches intentionally create a few repair factories and demonstrates this seemingly unreasonable quick repair method in front of everyone, guiding them to consider the Lord’s capabilities.
With Paradise as an excuse, the Three Great Civilizations are unlikely to question Paradise, asking if she truly used the resources for Paradise’s functions, or if they were really consumed by Paradise.
Coupled with a batch of reasonable resources brought back openly, she can take away most of the gains from this war in a justified manner.
That way, when the Insect Swarm appears with a large fleet of Insect Clan warships, even if a significant amount of metal materials are displayed, there would be no suspicion on her!
Bai Yi reviewed her plan in her mind once more, confirming there were no flaws and progress was going smoothly; she suddenly remembered something and raised her hand to call back the witch who was about to leave.
"Oh yes! Arrange something for me as soon as possible.
I just brought back some new blueprints, which can help us update a batch of equipment.
Additionally, I have a batch of ship cannon blueprints that I recorded from those Church warships."
With that, Bai Yi also set off, preparing to take part in this round of upgrades personally.
Bai Yi knew very well that her fleet currently still lagged behind the active equipment of the Three Great Civilizations in terms of raw strength.
If her witches were to research it slowly, it would be unknown how long it would take to catch up in technology.
Fortunately, this war provided her with an excellent opportunity to catch up, allowing convenient access to all kinds of top-notch technology to swiftly boost her fleet’s power.
In addition to performing better in the war, more importantly, these technologies could be fed back to her territory, allowing the Insect Swarm to catch up indirectly with this level of technology!
Once plunged into the fleet’s upgrade, time flew by quickly.
At the scheduled time the next day, Bai Yi and other high-level powerhouses gathered again on Sisos’ flagship.
During the warship upgrade, Bai Yi had a burst of inspiration, which delayed her for a bit. By the time she arrived, most of the high-level powerhouses were already there.
Upon seeing Bai Yi’s arrival, they all instantly showed great enthusiasm.
The powerhouses present had all owed her resources in the potion transaction the day before and had seen up close the speed of her warship production just the day before with Sisos.
Even if not all were Mechanical Masters, they could sense the terrifying speed, gaining a new understanding of Bai Yi’s power.
Compared to the passion during the last gathering here, this time there’s an extra touch of flattery.
"Lord Fanmao has arrived! Hahaha, we’ll need Lord Fanmao’s care in this war!"
"Exactly, exactly. Didn’t expect Lord Fanmao wasn’t joking that day. This fleet repair method is simply cheating! How can those Church fleets resist?"
"Gotta congratulate Lord Fanmao in advance. With such a fleet, in the subsequent wars, the biggest credit will surely belong to Lord Fanmao..."
Yeah right, achieving the biggest credit implies sending my fleet to die more, to minimize their losses...
They don’t talk about the loss of the people piloting the ships at all.
One moment they’re flattering me, and the next, they’re asking me to sacrifice voluntarily. They’re trying to take all the advantages; this plan is truly cunning...
Bai Yi politely smiled in response to these surface compliments, while internally complaining fiercely.
Such obvious flattery tactics, Bai Yi could recognize them at a glance.
Seeing her fleet’s ability to repair quickly, realizing it’s an excellent cannon fodder, they chose to selectively ignore her personnel losses and found ways to push her into this position.
Moreover, they’re using positive flattery and guidance, making it difficult to find fault.
If successful, it could be a win-win; even if it fails, there’s no loss.
This group of people outwardly respects her highly because of her potions, but when truly faced with benefits involving little risk, they hesitate not at all...
However, she didn’t mind at all; she even hoped they would intensify it.
After all, without their presence, she would have a hard time finding an excuse to let her fleet head to its death.
If she can’t send troops reasonably, she can’t claim compensation; rounding up, that would be a massive loss!
Now, with these high-level powerhouses collectively pushing her toward those tasks where it’s easy to send troops to die, it’s exactly in line with her intentions.
"Hahaha, you’re overpraising. As long as there is a need for my fleet, I will surely be duty-bound.
If you have any warship losses, you can also leave them to me to repair quickly. During the war, I could charge a cost price."
The kind of cost price where I could earn half...
Meanwhile, allowing me to explore the internal structure of the warship again...
Bai Yi added two more remarks in her mind, thinking of the win-win, as if anyone else wouldn’t do the same.
