Chapter 216: Chapter 144: Princess Betty’s Impatience, Dinosaur Civilization
The next morning, Lin Feng called Han Yuxin in Jin City, telling her to find and recruit medical personnel as soon as possible, especially surgeons.
This was to prevent further losses from injuries.
After all, the number of Warriors was limited. If this dragged on, it would not only affect the future Tier Two Corps plan but also have a considerable impact on internal morale.
If they couldn’t get timely treatment after being injured, who would dare to charge to the front?
Han Yuxin nodded and made a request:
"Could you send some soldiers? With just the dozen or so Awakeners I have, it’s difficult to search the four major districts of Jin City. Besides, those other factions will be reluctant to let people go."
Lin Feng agreed. As it happened, the hundred-plus soldiers who had first followed him had all reached Tier One Late Stage Perfection. Staying with the fleet, they couldn’t Upgrade any further, so it would be better to send them out on other missions. This would also give them a chance to gain more real combat experience and rely less on Replicas like Tanks and Shotguns.
With this in mind, Lin Feng agreed immediately:
"No problem. I’ll send you fifty Tier One Late Stage Perfection Awakeners, along with five hundred Enhanced People as Support Soldiers. That force is strong enough to sweep through Jin City."
Han Yuxin was instantly thrilled:
"Really?! That’s wonderful!"
"But what about you? Won’t your front line be under pressure?"
Now that the main force of the Thirteenth Division had withdrawn, those left behind were basically ordinary Enhanced People soldiers. Lin Feng was single-handedly holding the front line.
After her initial excitement, Han Yuxin couldn’t help but worry about him transferring away a third of his forces at once.
Jin City certainly needed the manpower, but if it caused the defensive line to collapse, the loss would outweigh the gain, and in the end, it would only benefit the Zerg Race.
Hearing her concern, Lin Feng smiled and shook his head:
"It’s fine. Besides killing the Tier Two Zerg Race, they have no other way to advance. Before that happens, it’s better for them to get some training with you for a few days..."
"As long as the fleet is here on the front line, there won’t be any major problems. But don’t get too happy just yet. The old mission I gave you still needs to continue."
"Our forces have expanded dozens of times now, so we need more Fine Steel. At least a thousand tons, and the more the better."
"This task should be carried out simultaneously with finding doctors. You’re more familiar with Jin City, so you can assign more people to go to the old industrial district in the South and see if there’s anything left behind after the relocations."
Han Yuxin hummed in agreement and took a deep breath before saying:
"Oh, right, there’s one more thing..."
"We haven’t received any live Black Spine Zergs in the past two days, and Betty’s side is already pressing for them."
"Most of the Fine Steel, medicine, and supplies we’ve gathered were sent by her from the rear. If the need for Fine Steel is urgent, we could send someone over to expand our future trade volume."
Lin Feng’s brow furrowed slightly. He had almost forgotten about this foreign princess he had only met once. But now, as Han Yuxin mentioned her name, the noble image of her wearing a laurel crown and magnificent clothes instantly appeared in his mind.
Betty Charmann, a princess of the Rolle Kingdom, had fled to the Federation for asylum.
Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly. Betty controlled great wealth, such as large amounts of gold, but what he cared about weren’t these material possessions.
Her status as a princess, a symbol of royal authority, and the rich administrative experience of the high-ranking kingdom officials who followed her would be very helpful for Lin Feng’s future expansion and for integrating the population and resources in his territory.
’In truth, with the apocalypse having progressed this far, it would be difficult to restore the freedom and democracy of the past. To defeat the Swarm, which obeys and executes commands with machine-like loyalty... only a corresponding centralized, authoritarian model would work.’
’Furthermore, with all kinds of resources being so limited, they can only be conserved through a system of rationing.’
’But many survivors don’t see it that way. Based on the occasional news I hear from the rear, the areas outside the safe zones aren’t peaceful either...’
’Although there’s no danger of Zerg Race attacks, the huge crowds of gathered refugees are the biggest problem in and of themselves.’
’Hell is other people.’
’There are just too many people—so many that the grain and oil being shipped back isn’t enough to feed them all.’
’They’re difficult to manage, order is chaotic, and crimes like robbery are rampant...’
’And the survivors have long been resentful of the provisional council’s decision to limit entry into the safe zones.’
’This discontent will eventually coalesce into a force that can’t be ignored, and one day it will cause even greater destruction.’
’No wonder the Federation’s high command is so anxious, urging the Thirteenth Division to return to the rear.’
’With such a massive disparity in numbers, only Awakeners can deter the ambitious individuals hiding among the refugees.’
Lin Feng didn’t want to be a hypocrite, lest he get bogged down in endless troubles and entanglements. He had made a decision long ago: in the future, he would directly leverage Betty’s goal, inviting her and her cabinet members to help him manage things.
And Betty, in turn, could achieve the restoration of her kingdom, returning to the model she was most familiar with.
If one day Lin Feng could achieve victory, completely repel the Zerg Race, and annihilate or expel them all from Blue Star, then this kingdom would transform into a Human Empire that unified the entire planet!
After Lin Feng embarked on his own cosmic adventure, this vast Empire, composed of all of humanity, would still have the ability to counter an Alien Star invasion.
This was one of Lin Feng’s visions for the future.
And so now, he certainly couldn’t reduce contact with Princess Betty, especially since the help she could provide was also considerable.
’Han Yuxin alone couldn’t compare to Hu Fei.’
Hearing her words over the phone, Lin Feng thought quietly for a moment before giving his reply:
