“Beep! Troll Mercenary Team, the h-189 new mine exploration mission is about to commence. This mission is a four-star danger task issued by g-715 Sub-base. Please confirm your participation one last time. If you choose to continue, you will not be allowed to withdraw during the mission period; otherwise, you will be treated as a deserter according to Mechanical City regulations!”
“Beep! Repeating mission details: the h-189 new mine exploration mission is a four-star danger task. The objective is to proceed to the Archilok Mountains in the Zerg controlled area, search for the resources of the RZ Crystal Mine, and, if necessary, eliminate any Zerg nests in the vicinity. The mission duration is two months.
Mission Rewarda: All kills of Thorned Insect Clan along the way will belong entirely to the killer, with an additional reward that doubles the original amount;
Mission Rewardb: Once the approximate location of the RZ Crystal Mine is confirmed, it will count as one-third of the mission completion. Participants can withdraw at any time without penalty and will receive Rewardb, which includes 0 reputation points from g-715 Sub-base, 50 million Mechanical Coins, and one pi-000 type Assault Tank!
Mission Rewardc requires completing all tasks needed for Mission Rewardb and accurately determining the exact location of the RZ Crystal Mine. Additionally, participants must hold their position for at least four hours. Upon completion, it will count as two-thirds of the mission completion. Participants can withdraw at any time without penalty and will receive 0 reputation points from g-715 Sub-base, 300 million Mechanical Coins, and one Swift-90 type Battle Machine!
Mission Rewardd requires completing all tasks under Mission Rewardab and participating in the elimination of all Zerg nests within a hundred kilometers surrounding the RZ Crystal Mine. Upon completion, it will count as full mission completion. Afterward, participants will receive an exploration merit badge issued by g-715 Sub-base. With this badge, they can purchase supplies at any Trading Platform within g-715 Sub-base at a 25% discount and enjoy comprehensive protection from the guards at any time. Additionally, they will gain 10,000 reputation points from g-715 Sub-base, 1 billion Mechanical Coins, and obtain a 0.01% actual share in this mine!”
“Note: During the mission period, g-715 Sub-base will provide three critical support from the Airborne Squadron. This support is completely free. For each additional support beyond three times, a fee of 1 billion Mechanical Coins will be required for each subsequent request. If more than three supports are needed, no further assistance will be provided until the mission is completed or completely failed!”
……
“Wooden Child, I must say you are indeed insane! This is not a task that an ordinary Mercenary Group can undertake! We will definitely end up as nothing but bones eaten by bugs; there’s no doubt about it!”
At this moment, Lin Yuan’s Mercenary Group had completed basic resupply at Mine 478 and was embarking on the h-189 new mine exploration mission. The Armored Vehicle Formation hovered into the air, forming an assault Hexagonal Array, moving forward at a speed of six hundred kilometers per hour.
However, everyone on the tank was filled with pessimism except for Lin Yuan.
“Don’t worry! We’ll just complete Mission b and then withdraw immediately. Besides, we’re not the only ones participating in this new mine exploration mission; there’s also the leadership of the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps. Other medium-sized teams include the Falcon Mercenary Corps, Berserker Mercenary Corps, and the Carrion Eater Mercenary Corps. In total, there are more than twenty different Mercenary Groups, with over eighteen hundred mercenaries and three thousand tanks involved, plus two airborne squadrons and six supports from g-715 Sub-base. It’s going to be fine! You have to understand that this new mine exploration task is only issued once every ten mechanical years; we cannot miss this opportunity!”
Lin Yuan exclaimed loudly. As he said, while this new mine exploration task was indeed a terrifying death mission that made people shudder at its name, numerous mercenary teams flocked to it due to its generous rewards. A 0.01% share in the new mine could secure a lifetime of financial stability. Given the rarity of the RZ Crystal Mine, even just a 0.01% stake could yield at least several million to over one hundred million Mechanical Coins every mechanical year!
Moreover, this 0.01% stake was only available for groups like the Troll Mercenary Team. If it were a large team like the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps, g-715 Sub-base would directly offer them between 15% to 20% stakes—now that would be substantial! In fact, the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps had previously completed two such death detection missions and acquired shares in two mines; this was fundamentally why they were so powerful!
For this new mining exploration mission, the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps had acquired an additional three hundred Assault Tanks, one hundred Heavy Shield Hover Tanks, and thirty Folding Fighters, along with recruiting five hundred new Mercenary cannon fodder and over a hundred experienced Mercenaries. Their strength was indeed formidable. If they could endure until the end and complete the mission at the h-189 new mining site while other Mercenary Groups withdrew or perished, they might even secure 40% of the shares in that mine. Even though it was a medium-sized mine, the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps could earn hundreds of billions of Mechanical Coins each Mechanical Year!
It was a magnificent feast!
Many mid-tier Mercenary Teams were merely picking up the scraps left by the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps. This was indeed true; aside from the Falcon, Berserker, and Carrion Eater teams, which were three mid-sized groups, the remaining twenty Mercenary Groups had a total of fewer than two hundred Mercenaries and only three hundred Tanks. It was easy to imagine how weak these teams were.
Even among the Falcon, Berserker, and Carrion Eater mid-sized Mercenary Teams, their total number of Mercenaries barely exceeded six hundred, with their combined Tank count around one thousand. The rest belonged entirely to the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps.
"Let’s hope so! But speaking of which, to have the fortune to participate in such a large-scale Mercenary operation, I, Thomas, can consider my life worthwhile. Just think about it—over three thousand Tanks and nearly two thousand Mercenaries; it’s spectacular!"
"Thomas, you really lack experience. You get excited over three thousand Tanks? What is that? Don’t even compare it to the Regular Army of Mechanical City; even those D-Class and above Mercenary groups can field formations with at least five thousand Tanks and five Airborne Squadrons. Higher-tier Mercenary groups even possess their own Starships and advanced Falcon Starfighter formations. They are qualified to execute interstellar Mercenary Missions. However, even such powerful forces are insignificant in the face of the universe; perhaps in the next moment, they could be reduced to ashes! The Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps is nothing but a show of strength on the planet's surface! When they encounter real Zergs, they will be crying!"
Lord J, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up with a different implication. Undoubtedly, although he agreed with Lin Yuan's plan, he held a completely pessimistic view.
Lin Yuan listened without concern; he kept confirming the gathering point with the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps. With so many Mercenaries gathered, they had almost assembled all idle Mercenary Teams within g-715 Sub-base. They needed to come together before they could officially set off!
Fortunately, the distance from Mining Site 478 to the gathering point set by the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps was not too far—just one thousand kilometers—making it sufficient to arrive in just over an hour.
The gathering point set by the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps was at Mining Site 479, which also served as a Base Camp for them since this mine had been discovered by them twenty Mechanical Years ago and contained 15% of their shares.
However, after a previous wave of frantic Swarm attacks, Mining Site 479 had been completely destroyed with significant losses and had only recently been rebuilt.
When Lin Yuan's Armored Vehicle Formation arrived at Mining Site 479, their large Radar system had already detected a massive tide of Tanks surrounding the area from afar. It was truly spectacular; over two thousand Tanks hovered in the air like a vast steel cloud—intimidating and awe-inspiring!
"Sir, there is external information coming in. Do you allow it?" At that moment, Claire inquired. She was now the central control station for the entire Armored Vehicle Formation, managing the Hexagonal Array control station, the Firepower output control station, and the information control station! She was essentially the simulation embodiment of the whole Armored Vehicle Formation. In this state, unless the Armored Vehicle Formation was completely destroyed or Lin Yuan personally intervened, no outsider could control the Armored Vehicle Formation by any means. Not even Lord J or Thomas could do so, let alone the ten new Mercenaries like Electrician, who were under serious suspicion from Lin Yuan.
"Agreed!" Lin Yuan replied calmly. Soon after, a message came through, and what first emerged was an extremely authoritative and deep voice.
"Troll Mercenary Team? Double Wood Forest? I hope I'm not mistaken. Since when did an e1 level standard Mercenary Group dare to participate in a Death Detection Mission? Nevertheless, I wish you good luck. I am Evil Dragon, the leader of the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps. Welcome to join us. If you have no objections, please merge your Armored Vehicle Formation's Search Radar frequency with that of the Evil Dragon Mercenary Corps and maintain uninterrupted communication. From now on, enter combat status. Your Armored Vehicle Formation will be positioned at D Key Position, Nineteenth Column. Unless there are special circumstances, do not leave your combat position; otherwise, I will exercise my rights as the mission initiator and remove your Mercenary Group from the mission sequence. Do you have any questions?"
"No questions, thank you!"
Lin Yuan responded calmly, though he felt a surge of excitement inside. After all, this was indeed a crazy adventure since his Mercenary Group had the lowest rank among all participants, being only at e1 level. (To be continued.)
