Chapter 1475: 1363, Gem Dragon Lucia

"Gran, is something the matter?"

"Lemo, don’t you think this is Dalanduo’s conspiracy?"

Gran had a good personal relationship with Acting Speaker Lemo. In fact, there was a subtle trend of alliance forming between the Grandon Plant Association and the Lemo Mercenary Corps.

Among the top forces in the Fegg Hub, the Lemo Mercenary Corps and the Grandon Plant Association were quite close; the Central Bank and the Psychic Power Corporation were exceptionally intimate; the Fegg Guard stood alone.

There was a faint trend of a tripartite balance within the hub.

"A conspiracy? Indeed. Dalanduo’s move this time is significant!" Acting Speaker Lemo, now back in Star Zone 1, still turned his head towards the direction of Star Zone 170, his gaze as if seeing through everything.

...

Lemo did not believe Su Yu’s words.

Firstly, considering Su Yu’s strength, it was already too fake.

He did not acknowledge Su Yu’s so-called "special cultivation technique." Because a year and a half ago, he had secretly observed Su Yu.

Back then, Acting Speaker Lemo personally went to the star zone where Su Yu was located.

From his observation, Su Yu was just an ordinary Eighth Rank cultivator at that time, far from advancing to Planet-level, with no signs of transformation or life transition.

If Su Yu’s words were true, he would have at least seen traces of life transition the last time, which would be like "temporarily dropping to the Eighth Rank."

Therefore, Su Yu’s explanation must be a lie.

Secondly, being able to continuously produce the corpse of a Planet-level Fourth Rank Dragon, and a Level 4 AI, is this something a normal Planet-level person can accomplish?

The Dragon corpse could be explained by a stroke of luck, a Level 4 AI too?

Moreover, they had once gathered from a slip of Stone Man Retdoz’s tongue, and the conclusion was already clear.

"Gran, previously we always had a suspicion — that Su Yu was Dalanduo’s alternate account, now it seems we can confirm it."

"Yes, I think so too." Gran lamented, "I didn’t expect Dalanduo to play such a big card at this moment!"

"Then what do you think Dalanduo is up to?"

"Do we even need to ask? He just wants to use the Level 4 AI to complete his dominance over the hub." Gran said disdainfully.

Then, his tone shifted to seriousness: "Let me clear my thoughts, you see if it’s right:

First, Dalanduo created an alternate account, which is this Su Yu, a year and a half ago.

Dalanduo first crafted an identity for the alternate account, then orchestrated a bounty, so the alternate account could be noticed by the hub.

Then, by heating up news with the corpse of a Planet-level Dragon, no one would fail to know about this alternate account."

"Hmm, go on." Hearing this, Acting Speaker Lemo gradually became interested.

Gran continued, "Stirring up this alternate account was to prepare for today.

If there was no hype, suddenly a random Planet-level individual wielding a Level 4 AI would make anyone highly vigilant.

But ’Su Yu,’ such a native who had contributed to the hub, would be more acceptable to everyone.

Now he has also boosted his alternate account to Planet-level.

Because it’s Planet-level, we cannot confiscate the AI in the name of the council, making it convenient for him to completely control the AI with the alternate account.

Finally, he popularizes the AI throughout the hub, laying the foundation for ruling the hub.

One might say this move is truly brilliant!"

"Indeed." Acting Speaker Lemo chimed in, "This move is not only brilliant, but we find it hard to counter. After all, it’s a Level 4 AI; if I were in his place, I would do the same."

"Alas, who wouldn’t?"

Gran and Lemo lamented in succession.

After a bout of lamenting, Gran asked, "So what do we do now?"

"What else can we do." Acting Speaker Lemo slowly said, "The tripartite balance has already been broken, we must seek an alliance."

"Seek an alliance? You mean Andrew and Lucia?"

"That’s right."

"Hmm... I suppose it could work, I’ll contact them now."

...

Two minutes later, in the guest room of the chairman’s office, three virtual projections appeared in front of Acting Speaker Lemo.

One of the projections was, of course, Gran. The other two were Andrew Soren, the director of the Central Bank, and Lucia Grastasa, the president of the Psychic Power Corporation.

Lucia was the only female present, and she did not belong to the Holy Silver Human Race but came from the Gem Dragon Clan.

The Gem Dragon was a branch within the Dragon Race, and it was an extremely peculiar branch.

Over a hundred million years ago, the Holy Silver Federation discovered that the Gem Dragon within the Dragon Race had the greatest affinity for Spiritual Energy.

Among the vast populations of wise creatures in the Holy Silver Federation, the Gem Dragon had the strongest affinity for Spiritual Energy.

This spiritual energy affinity manifested mainly as: other clans, when mining, transporting spiritual energy, or manufacturing spirit energy weapons, inevitably incurred losses, even in the most high-tech spiritual energy mining facilities.

But the Gem Dragon was different.

The spiritual energy loss during the Gem Dragon’s mining and transportation was extremely low, almost negligible, approaching 0%!

This loss couldn’t be achieved even by the present Holy Silver Human Race.

And although Gem Dragons also consumed spiritual energy during their usual cultivation, after reaching adulthood, they would extra produce a portion of spiritual energy each year!

To be able to produce spiritual energy!

The race that could produce spiritual energy was exceedingly rare.

If you calculate in total, the total amount of spiritual energy produced by a Gem Dragon over its life would be greater than its consumption, though only slightly more, it was still greater.

It’s equivalent to not needing much spiritual energy consumption to cultivate a high-level adult Gem Dragon. This was regarded as a treasure race in the entire universe!

How could the Federation not value such a treasure race?

Afterward, the Holy Silver Federation spared no effort to cultivate this species, even employing various cutting-edge technological means to imitate it.

However, the fertility of the dragon race was originally weak, even more so for the Gem Dragon.

Using methods like the "Eternal Spring" to mass-produce Gem Dragons not only consumed a large amount of energy, but the produced effects were not ideal.

Mass-producing Gem Dragons was possible, but if you account for the consumption during production, then the lifetime consumption of a Gem Dragon would exceed its output.

Therefore, it could only slowly expand the population through natural reproduction.

However, due to particularly good reproductive policies and generous subsidies from the Federation, the Gem Dragon race became the most numerous dragon race in the entire Federation after thirty million years.

Up to now, the Gem Dragon population exceeded hundreds of billions, about twice as much as the "ordinary White Dragon" that ranks second.

However, it’s not so plenty that they’re everywhere, compared to the Human Race, this number is still extremely few.

Due to their unique "spiritual energy affinity," the Gem Dragons, after reaching adulthood, were massively assigned by the hymn to various jobs in spiritual energy mining, storage, transportation, distribution, and other sectors.

In almost all the spiritual energy mining companies at the various major hubs in the Milky Way, Gem Dragons were in charge.

Therefore, for Lucia to be a female Gem Dragon was naturally not surprising.
