Chapter 39
Strategy

After a moment of contemplation, Wang Dong issued a new command: “Scan the habitable planets below for terrain, and filter out any nodes that could cause large-scale disasters.”

For every ten thousand civilized beings destroyed, one source point could be obtained. The Yatai star system below was the main star system of the Yatai civilization, with a very high population density. Each habitable planet had a population of billions.

If he could create a natural disaster, it would be a breeze to massacre tens or even hundreds of millions of people.

This kind of reward ratio was even higher than simply destroying warships.

This was also why the “interspace battlefield” where habitable planets were found was known as a “gold copy”.

The only pity was that the universe was so vast, yet the proportion of habitable planets was so low.

The chance of encountering a habitable planet in an “interspace battlefield” was even lower, a needle in a haystack.

It was a legendary privilege reserved for those “lucky emperor” captains.

As for habitable planets with high population densities, they were even rarer, one in ten thousand. If one were to encounter such a planet, the captain would hold a grand feast back home, fearing a loss of good fortune.

Yet, Wang Dong had three habitable planets with high population densities in front of him. It was enough to make countless captains envious, even homicidal.

It could be said that Wang Dong had picked up a big loot bag in this interspace battlefield.

After only ten minutes, the ship’s onboard computer projected three 3D holographic images, corresponding to the three habitable planets, and each one marked potential points that could cause massive casualties.

Wang Dong glanced at them – super-large water conservancy facilities, flammable and explosive facilities in super-large cities, nuclear power plants near densely populated areas, and super-large active volcanoes on the seabed that could be triggered…

“Supervillain roles from the movies…”

Wang Dong instantly felt a sense of self-awareness.

“Luckily, this interspace civilization’s aesthetics are too unjust.”

Wang Dong could naturally see the appearance of the Yatai civilization.

They resembled large gorillas wearing clothes, bearing little resemblance to the word “human”.

Wang Dong thought that if the opponent had a similar form to humans, he would have hesitated for a moment before choosing this kind of massacre.

“Too bad the supplies on the Battleaxe are really scarce.”

Wang Dong sighed, “The start is always so difficult, limited conditions, there’s nothing to be done.”

With lightning speed, Wang Dong formulated a general plan.

Of course, the battlefield was ever-changing, and how to implement it would depend on the evolution of the situation.

Each interspace battlefield could only last for twenty-four hours. Once the time was up, the fire seed warship would be expelled back to the main universe.

With only twenty hours left, Wang Dong didn’t hesitate any longer. Following the markings given by the ship’s onboard computer, he set the starting point of the action on the fourth planet of the Yatai star system.

This habitable planet had a population of 6.8 billion, with four super-large cities with populations exceeding 100 million, and three super-large water conservancy facilities, totaling fifteen nodes to choose from.

The subsequent progress was quite smooth.

Relying on the concealment effect of the Mirage system, the Battleaxe easily evaded the patrol fleet that was cruising in the star system, silently and invisibly sneaking into the target planet.

First, it used its main guns to bombard the flammable and explosive pipelines and warehouses in several super-large cities, then used its secondary guns to destroy the main fire fighting forces of the cities, and finally, it demolished the super-large water conservancy facilities.

With a set of “heavenly disaster降临” combo, in just one hour, the four super-large cities on this planet were engulfed in flames.

The destruction of the three super-large water conservancy facilities caused massive floods. The fire and water disasters ravaged this planet.

The Battleaxe only consumed 17 main gun shells, 36 secondary gun shells, and gained 282 source points.

This meant that millions of Yatai civilization members had died in the man-made disasters.

However, due to the Battleaxe’s 25% “source point acquisition rate”, the total income was halved and halved again.

The fire seed warship’s “inheritance tax” was truly terrifying.

And this was just the beginning.

The fire and water disasters could not be extinguished in the short term, and the casualty figures were still rising rapidly.

As time went by, the source points gained by the Battleaxe continued to grow.

Main gun ammunition remaining: 106 rounds, secondary gun ammunition remaining: 1976, remaining source points: 354.

“It’s a pity that there are only twenty-four hours, after exiting the interspace, any subsequent casualties will no longer be counted in the battle record, and there will be no source points to be earned.”

Wang Dong felt a little regretful. This kind of fire and water disaster usually lasted far longer than twenty-four hours, especially water disasters, the majority of the damage came later, mainly from the continuous impact.

After all, it takes time for flood waters to flow.

Ignoring the Yatai civilization that had already reacted, the Battleaxe sped away from the fourth planet and flew towards another habitable planet nearby.

This planet only had two super-large cities with populations exceeding 100 million, but twelve cities with populations between 70 million and 100 million.

Although the damage to the super-large water conservancy facilities would also cause huge losses, it was slow-acting. This time, Wang Dong adopted a more direct method, fire.
