Chapter 151: 090 Pirate Group Attacks
Flowers, applause, bustling crowds, and beautiful women blowing mad kisses.
Yang Ming, just leaving the hospital, truly enjoyed the treatment of a hero.
However… weren’t these reporters’ questions somewhat, a little… structurally lacking in synaptic neuron branches?
“Major, can you share your thoughts?”
Thoughts on what matter?
“Major, will you join the Sherman Empire’s forces to have a decisive battle with the New Federation’s fleet?”
Anyone with a bit of military knowledge!

“Can you talk about what it feels like to be hit by a missile?”
Yang Ming almost pinned the reporter to the ground and punched him, asking what it felt like to be hit by a fist.
Fortunately, the guard arranged by Edwan pulled Yang Ming away in time.
Edwan arranged a new place for Yang Ming to stay, but Yang Ming tactfully declined.
Yang Ming requested four ordinary Mechanical Guards from Edwan, stationing them at the entrance of his chemical plant, so Lyu had accessible weapons.
Entering the familiar small villa, activating the full-shield device, Yang Ming finally exhaled the breath he’d been holding.
“Phew—it’s comfortable here.”
From the corner of the living room, a projector cast several beams of light, weaving Lyu’s figure.
“Welcome home, boss.”
“You finally did something a piece of artificial intelligence is supposed to do.”
Yang Ming loosened his shirt buttons, kicked off his two military boots, and slumped onto the sofa, mindlessly watching the news about himself on the projection TV.
His naturally photogenic face.
In the future, if a developed planet lacked funds, joining some variety shows to subsidize the “stars” wouldn’t be unwise.
Lyu, maintaining a petite thirty-centimeter form, sat next to Yang Ming, lightly swinging her legs, and asked with a grin:
“Boss, how does it feel to be a star?”
“Quite superficial, almost like I can’t touch the ground,” Yang Ming casually turned off the TV, “let’s focus on the business at hand, where is Kolev right now?”
Lyu replied seriously, “He has returned to the Cas Federation, preparing to return through normal routes.”
“What about our ship?”
“It’s already at the edge of the Luofeng Empire, just waiting for us to confirm the target Resource Star. We can fly there at any time, and the energy of that transport ship is still sufficient for a short-distance jump.”
“Give me the information on the three Resource Stars you selected.”
“Yes, boss.”
Weak light points appeared on Lyu’s body, changing her attire from a dress into a professional suit.
A projection image appeared in front of Yang Ming, showing three planets rotating at varying speeds and tilt angles in the vast cosmic space.
These were three abandoned Resource Stars within the Luofeng Empire.
Usually, abandoned Resource Stars located closer to an Administrative Star mostly became landfill sites.
While those farther from an Administrative Star gradually slipped from people’s sight.
One Administrative Star with a population of more than three hundred million required the support of three to five developed Resource Stars to ensure the residents lived at the average level of the Milky Way.
Furthermore, the natural resources of the Administrative Star itself were typically preserved as strategic resources, rarely developed, involving complex cost conversions between livability and interstellar mining.
Lyu explained beside him:
“I labeled them as 001, 002, 003; these are three abandoned Resource Stars of high value, capable of meeting most of our preliminary development resource needs.”
Yang Ming wondered, “Since they still have value, why were they abandoned?”
“Boss,” Lyu smiled, “between mining a rich deposit and a poor deposit with the same difficulty, which would you mine first?”
Yang Ming said, “Definitely mine the rich deposit first, it’s more profitable.”
“Precisely.”
Lyu explained:
“Resource Star classifications are evaluated based on their comprehensive value.
Different minerals require different technological means for mining; differing mining difficulties represent varied technological costs.
Nations like the Four Great Rogues of the Milky Way would have detailed plans for every Resource Star within their territory… but the resource exploitation planning of the Luofeng Empire is careless and chaotic; over time, even the Luofeng Empire’s own database doesn’t match.
This provides us the convenience of finding neglected opportunities.”
Neglected opportunities?
Yang Ming instantly beamed with pleasure, “Well done! Tell me about Star 001 first.”
“Resource Star 001 originally belonged to the jurisdiction of Ilando Star. The straight-line route for a regular civilian transport ship is twelve standard Galaxy Days, its short-distance directional jump orbit has been dismantled, abandoned for over six hundred fifty-two years.
Its advantage is that it still retains some buildings and factories, with a small city ruin, and it’s relatively close to Ilando Star.
The disadvantage is the same; the exposure risk is high.”
Yang Ming immediately said, “Let’s not consider it; our priority is concealment.”
“Then I recommend 002,” Lyu quickly said, “it is near the Fifth Administrative Star, the advantage being semi-habitable. Except for the lack of oxygen necessary for carbon-based life, other indexes are quite good. The downside is it’s in a different Constant Star System from the Fifth Administrative Star, residing in a binary star system, with no stable jump point nearby, resulting in higher transportation costs.”
“Semi-habitable?”
“Near standard gravitational acceleration, some habitable areas, many anaerobic microorganisms, relatively ample core energy supply…”
In the room, Yang Ming and Lyu discussed continuously.
Choosing this Resource Star today was crucial for their future development, and they certainly couldn’t be careless.
This was the core of the Dark Star Plan;
It was the main platform for Yang Ming’s glitch-exploiting of mechanical thought civilization.
There, Yang Ming would build a base, acquire resources, cultivate Thought Bodies, develop a Mechanical Army, and assemble a powerful fleet…
