Chapter 981: Commander’s Gift
【Quarterly Task: Complete transactions totaling 50 trillion Star Coins with the Angels this quarter.】
Ding! Quarterly task completed, reward available.
Zhao Chen lay on an inflatable bed on the water's surface, wearing sunglasses and swimming trunks, feeling the gentle sunlight caressing his skin.
You can also hear the sounds of children playing in the water.
A fragrant aroma could be smelled from afar.
"There's still a little over two weeks left until the end of the month, but I've finally finished this task." Zhao Chen stretched and adjusted his backrest so he could sit comfortably on the inflatable mattress.
This is an inland lake.
In the distance, you can see several snow-capped mountains, behind which is a lush green meadow, and in the distance, there are orchards.
The temperature was neither too hot nor too cold, which was very comfortable.
Several figures could be seen playing in the water, with Xue Xiaoxiao chasing Zhao Wan'er and Midier while playing with water guns.
Suddenly a figure darted out of the water.
The water gun hit the girls accurately, and before they could react, the figure dove into the water again and disappeared without a trace.
That was none other than the snake woman Qingman; in this environment, it was her advantage.
On the grass in the distance, you can see Lilith, Shen Bing, Su Lan, and others preparing food, with Annie also among them.
Annie was running around everywhere, looking very busy; she could be seen everywhere.
But upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that she didn't actually do anything; she just made a lot more money off her.
Another group of people were sitting by the lake, discussing something in small groups.
For example, Nana and Elise the Spider Queen were discussing starship manufacturing technology.
Zhao Ruyue, Leona, and Chu Xuan seemed to be talking about something while facing the interstellar war sandbox.
Swish
Suddenly, two figures flashed across the lake.
Those were the harpy Avina and the angel Tebbesa, a guest from the angel race. The two raced at an astonishing speed through the lakes, mountains, and forests, chasing each other.
"Commander, have some fruit." A beautiful figure emerged from the water, one hand resting on the floating bed, the other holding a bubble tray.
Inside were peeled fruit.
"Thank you." Zhao Chen took the plate from the mermaid, Hina.
I must say, this fruit... is really big.
"This is how life should be," Zhao Chen remarked.
On a whim, he accepted the quarterly task reward.
【Congratulations on obtaining the T5 Diamond Eden-class Starship blueprint and 2000 mission points】
【Current mission point: 2550】
Fortunately, the quarterly task reward gave Zhao Chen the task points he desperately needed.
Zhao Chen then checked his current personal data.
【Host: Zhao Chen】
Occupation: Top Starship Engineer
Special attributes: Fleet Luck Bonus, Eye of Insight
System points: 390 million (Monthly fleet income: 66 million points)
Mission Points: 2550
Number of starships: over 150,000
Task: Annual Task (In Progress)
Warehouse: T5 Diamond Eden-class Starship Technical Blueprints
As the fleet expanded, Zhao Chen's passive income from system points also increased continuously, and he could earn a considerable amount almost overnight.
In fact, the system points are enough to redeem any T5-level interstellar warship.
Unfortunately, I didn't have enough mission points before.
Now that he had enough mission points, Zhao Chen opened the system shop and his eyes fell directly on the most expensive starship in the T5 series combat starship category.
A thought crossed my mind.
【Consume 200 million system points and 1500 mission points to exchange for the 'T5 Crimson Reaper-class Heavy Interstellar Strategic Missile Ship' technical blueprint?】
Confirm redemption!
【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T5 Crimson Reaper-class Heavy Interstellar Strategic Missile Ship' blueprint, after consuming 200 million system points and 1500 mission points.】
【Current system points: 190 million】
【Current mission points: 1050】
Seeing that he had acquired the technology of an interstellar missile ship, Zhao Chen couldn't help but smile.
This is currently the most expensive interstellar warship in the combat-type interstellar warship category in the T5 system store.
There's a reason why something is expensive.
Zhao Chen didn't neglect the remaining system points and task points either.
After all, his super fleet plan was there, and having fewer ship types would always make people feel like something was missing, and it wasn't quite perfect.
Zhao Chen found another interstellar warship.
This one isn't as expensive as the former.
【Consume 130 million system points and 900 mission points to exchange for the 'T5 Frost Tyrant-class Heavy Interstellar Missile Battlecruiser' technical blueprint?】
confirm!
【Congratulations on obtaining the 'T5 Frost Tyrant-class Heavy Interstellar Missile Battlecruiser' blueprint, after consuming 130 million system points and 900 mission points.】
【Current system points: 60 million】
【Current task points: 150】
Looking at his mission points dwindling again, Zhao Chen shrugged helplessly.
The T5 Frost Tyrant is actually an upgraded version of the former T4 Tyrant-class heavy interplanetary missile battlecruiser. The two are very similar, but the T5 Frost Tyrant has undergone upgrades and modifications in all aspects of the T5 series.
It is currently the most suitable interstellar battlecruiser for the JF-17 Legion!
"Now my super fleet is somewhat complete," Zhao Chen said with satisfaction.
He raised his hands again and began to edit the three interstellar warships into the data disk.
Soon, we will have done these things.
Zhao Chen stood a little to the side.
The floating bed automatically and slowly drifted towards the lake.
Before long, the floating bed reached the shore.
Zhao Chen stood up and stepped directly onto the fine sand.
"Commander, you've come at the perfect time."
We've almost finished making preparations here.
They have all kinds of delicious food! And it tastes amazing!
"These are some top-quality ingredients I specially reserved for you, please try them!" Surprisingly, it was Annie who greeted Zhao Chen first.
She even pushed a food cart to Zhao Chen's side and showed it off to him.
The women behind him couldn't help but chuckle.
Although Annie participated in the preparation of these foods, it was basically a collaborative effort among them.
Zhao Chen was naturally aware of all this; this little rascal was just using this opportunity to curry favor.
Zhao Chen feigned surprise and said, "Really? Then I'll have to prepare a gift for our Chief Engineer Annie."
Zhao Chen looked quite serious.
"The gifts are too kind," Annie said, but her eyes were full of excitement, and she couldn't hide her true feelings.
Zhao Chen took out three data disks and handed them to Annie.
"Here, this is a gift I prepared for you."
You'll probably really like it.
Annie stared at the three 'familiar' data disks in front of her, her expression frozen, as if these three data disks were some kind of hot potato, and she was extremely unwilling to do so.
