Chapter 855: Chapter 849: New Goal (Part 1)

As long as the various families stop their contributions to the Federation, unless the Supervisory Bureau can instantly control all the situations, otherwise, as long as it continues, the military force of the Supervisory Bureau will no longer have an absolute advantage. When the military force of the Supervisory Bureau no longer has an absolute advantage, the Federation will collapse.

Finn Lewis could only shake his head at all this, as he was unable to take part, nor was it something he could be involved in. But now, Finn no longer worried. He had enough resources in his possession. According to what Finn had exchanged, he now had nearly 100 Raven Class warships at his disposal, which were warships belonging to the first-class warships within the Federation.

However, Finn had re-planned it. There would definitely be more advanced warships in the future, so the ones Finn had designed, completely by the scientists from Earth, had a combat capacity that was at least three times that of any current first-class warships of the Galactic Federation, named the Raven Class.

It was officially designated as the Raven I Class warship, marking the beginning of a series. Of course, this was its nickname; its official classification was at the planetary level. As for the higher levels, they had yet to be developed.

Although the technology of the Galactic Federation was relatively powerful, Finn felt it was still better to form his own system, seeing that the Federation’s technology had clearly gone astray.

“Your Majesty, having graduated from the Noble Academy, you will now have full access to all the privileges of the entire nine-star royal family. An assigned individual will explain the pertinent privileges to you. Additionally, a significant portion of the Federation’s public resources will be made available to you, such as applying for a loan from the official Galactic Federation Treasury of no less than 350 billion star credits annually, with a repayment term of 10 years.”

“Every year?” Finn was momentarily stunned and then asked somewhat oddly.

“Yes, every year,” the old man asserted straightforwardly.

“So you mean to say, I could essentially get access to about 31,500 billion star credits for nothing?” Finn asked curiously. What the old man meant was annually, but the loan repayment period was 10 years, meaning that within those 10 years, Finn could borrow continuously. Even after 10 years, it would be nothing more than taking out a new loan to pay off the first one.

In theory, Finn would always have access to 9 amounts of 350 billion, amounting to 31,500 billion star credits almost for free.

“You’ve got this privilege for only 500 years; after that, you’ll no longer be able to borrow,” the old man clarified, obviously understanding precisely what Finn was getting at.

“Oh, I see,” Finn nodded. What a steal, it seemed graduation indeed brought many benefits.

“What other privileges would I be interested in?” Finn asked bluntly.

The old man glanced at Finn and then said, “If you purchase any sort of product materials from the Federation, you can get them for 10% above cost, which is equivalent to 60% of the market price.”

Great. Finn was pleased; this was an undoubtedly more advantageous deal, given the steep discount. Right now, Finn needed raw materials. Regarding factories, according to Luna Starfield, Finn’s multifunctional factory could produce almost anything with just a simple modification of the production line, from the lowest to the highest level products, so Finn didn’t have to worry about production line issues.

Instead, due to the constraints of Finn’s own territory, he required a massive amount of raw materials.

“Thank you, Dean,” Finn nodded.

“No need to thank me, this is your exclusive prerogative, Your Majesty,” the old man added.

“I see. Anyway, thank you, Dean. If there’s anything you need from me, please get in touch. I’m heading back to my dominion today, and I probably won’t come to the Capital Star area for quite a while,” Finn said, nodding.

“Luna Starfield, what information did you receive?” After Finn left the examination area, he directly departed from the Noble Academy. He would notify those who needed to be informed, and as for the rest, they were of no concern to him anymore. He no longer cared about them.

“Your Highness, among the information we have received are approximately 1,172 coordinates, scattered throughout the Heritage System. After comparing with the star maps, these coordinates are mostly located in the more barren regions of the Heritage System, although there are exceptions. The planets these coordinates point to contain relics left behind by ancient civilizations,” Luna Starfield responded clearly.

“That many!” Finn was surprised; he had not expected that this bargain, whoever his ancestor might have been, had left him with so much.

“But that’s not all. Additionally, 99 of the coordinates are located within the Solar System and the surrounding Barren Star Belt. The coordinates within the Star Belt all denote storage locations of raw materials and some rarer minerals, as well as some technology components. However, they’re not of much use to us,” Luna Starfield added straightforwardly.

Finn nodded, recognizing this as an unexpected windfall. Suddenly, it dawned on him—was Zero’s rush to complete this peculiar mission related to this? Finn recalled that Zero’s missions were never without purpose. Thus, the seven months allotted by Zero must signify something impending.

After some calculations, Finn realized that less than a month remained until the seven-month deadline set by Zero for the mission. He thought that he had finished well ahead of schedule, but now, it seemed that he didn’t have much time left after all.

Yet, Finn remembered something else; in the rush with the mission, it seemed there was no reward after completion. What a pitfall.

“Zero, come out. I’ve completed the mission,” Finn promptly called out.

Contrary to expectations, Zero did not appear following Finn’s words. Finn called out a few more times, but Zero remained absent, startling Finn. Goodness, Zero hadn’t just vanished, had he? Finn quickly tried to access the exchange system through his personal brain-computer interface, and the exchange list opened without issue.

However, Zero didn’t appear, prompting a sudden realization from Finn—Zero seemed not to be integrated with the exchange system, despite having always assumed they were one and the same, with Zero serving as a controlling artificial intelligence on par. But now, it appeared this was not the case.
