"... Although Nesson III is a world of death, there are still some fragile civilizations. Long before the exploration team of Griffin IV arrived here, there were already recorded human settlements in this world. Some of them may be fugitives, and some of them are adventurers, trying to find opportunities here... In short, after Griffin IV established a resource mining station at the poles of the planet, it closed the orbital route rights of the planet. This is the strategy of mechanical education, which is the so-called land grabbing and horse racing. When you see an unmanned world, you will arrange an exploration station or a mining station at will. According to the Olympia Agreement, they have the priority development rights of this world, but they will not develop immediately. This is just to prepare for the future if you discover any rare resources and ancient ruins."
In the Stormbird's cabin, when the cabin door opened, a heat wave that was enough to hurt the skin came over, instantly filling the entire cabin.
Soshyan and Andal stood at the edge of the cabin, watching the planet's desolate and scorching land swept through below.
"... Because this planet has a weak atmosphere and is closer to the star than Nesson 4, its average ground temperature is nearly 20 degrees higher than Nesson 4, and the temperature difference between day and night can reach a maximum of 80 degrees. At the perihelion point, the radiation energy reaches a fatal level. Its mass is about 78% of Nesson 4. There is no ground water source at present. Fortunately, there are a small amount of ice caps on the north and south poles. The Griffin 4 mining station was established there because of this. They also dug drainage channels underground in the planet to discharge wastewater filtered by the collection station. The National Education has been around for about two thousand years.
A missionary ship was forcibly sent here. Griffin IV did not pay much attention to it, and the two sides did not have further conflicts. At present, the localized and improved state religion has basically occupied the planet's belief consciousness. This should be due to the drought-tolerant crop seeds and livestock brought by the state religion, and the missionaries' will to be unafraid of hardship. It is really hard to imagine what kind of determination can prompt them to come to such a dead world to spread the teachings hard... So sometimes my feelings about the state religion are really complicated. The troubles they create and the miracles they create are almost equal."
Andal, who was the leader of the Tiger Claw Battle, immediately smiled:
"The state religion is very big, and the believers are as vast as stars. They are definitely not clear in a few words. Just like an empire, it is not realistic. Who can imagine that the two adjacent planets, one is a primitive tribe, and the other is a highly developed industrialized world... Commander of the Soshiyang Battle, do you think this place looks very similar to Barr?"
"Bar? Well... it's hard to say, at least the radiation level here should not be that serious. I think it may be more like Taran. According to the last rough statistics of the Mechanical Commission, the total population of Naisen III should be between 6 and 12 million. The closer it is to the poles, the denser the population. At present, there are about 20 cities with a population of over 10,000 in the northern and southern hemispheres. The rest of the population is scattered among various small city-states and tribes. This way of living may make conscription work difficult. It is precisely because of the geographical and climate here that the state religion has also become a decentralized structure here, without a unified church organization."
As he said that, Soshiyang also pointed to the undulating mountains passing by the ground.
"In addition, this world is not only civilized. There are many barbarian tribes living in many mountains. They account for about 12% of the total population of the planet. These tribes are basically divided into 100 people, with very few large settlements of thousands. Due to the intervention of the state religion, their beliefs are still in a very vague totem worship... To put it an interesting thing, the barbarian tribes of Nesson III generally worship the symbol of Griffin IV."
Andal seemed surprised when he heard this.
"Why?"
"Ha, because the resource transport ships only visit once every ten years, the mechanical sect bases here often do not get resources, especially the replenishment of the machine servants. Since they are only collecting stations and there are no cloning equipment, they can only be transformed by locals. The priests who stay on the planet are basically maintained at about 10 people, and they cannot do it with their own strength. So they fooled these raiders tribes by pretending to be gods and ghosts, allowing them to capture slaves for themselves, and the corresponding raiders will also get them to continue
Water, food and even weapons, over time... they became believers of the so-called "Red Witch King" and became extremely worshipful of metal... But this is also good, at least they will not believe in any cult or be contaminated with chaos. Due to inbreeding, a considerable number of these barbarians have deformities and diseases, but they also have a small number of particularly strong bodies and are bloodthirsty and cruel, which is very suitable for transforming new recruits." (Bloodthirsty and cruelty is a compliment in the eyes of many war groups...)
"Funny... It seems I have to take some time to observe it myself."
"At present, the mechanical priests of Griffin IV are ready to withdraw. I have arranged for other priests who cast the world to take over the mechanical tutoring facilities here. However, the battle group does not have more resources to develop here. The work of those priests is more to maintain the operation of local collection stations, and to conduct in-depth exploration of the planets and draw a complete resource infographic. The number of people will not be too many at the beginning... Andal, you have also seen that this world is very barren. It is difficult to rely on the power of the locals to build a complete fortress with the ability to transform new recruits, so the Tiger Claw can only temporarily use the simple small space station on the orbit as the base. In terms of equipment, I will arrange ships to send them, and you will also arrange the personnel left by Griffin IV."
Andal turned his head and looked at Soshiyan and said sincerely:
"Enough, your support for Tiger Claws, whether it is me or the future Tiger Claw warriors, will always be remembered. After all, in this era of war everywhere, almost no group is willing to give up one of their recruitment lands for other groups."
Soshiyang then smiled:
"This is my promise, and the battle group doesn't use so many recruitment areas now. Besides, as long as it is not a recruitment model with high intensity and elimination rate, I think there is no problem with the two battle group recruiting in the same world."
"The Knights of the Star Realm are planning to recruit soldiers here, too?"
"Well, I'll recruit a group symbolically, to study how well the residents here match the gene seeds of the war group."
Andal nodded, and the two of them immediately walked away from the hatch door, and the heavy hatch door slowly closed-
"etc."
The sharp-eyed Soshiyan seemed to have glimpsed something on the ground through the screen hanging on the cabin wall and its connected observation camera.
“Zoom in the picture.”
Soon, the picture magnified and Soshi raised his eyebrows.
