The Strongest Interstellar Commander

Jiang Hai was dubbed as the ‘Civilization Destroyer’ in the Interstellar Fleet, after he took the 3rd Legion with him to complete his first mission. That was, destroying 3,007 civilizations in the duration of the entire mission.

In a territory spanning more than 500 light-years, in addition to the Star Systems where the 48 Affiliated Civilizations were located, the Human Federation had obtained a total of 5,518 Star Systems.

However, although the harvest was huge, it gave Lin Zhen a headache. As far as the current Human population was concerned, it was already considered good if they were able to develop 1% of it. But what would happen to the remaining 99%? Would it just be abandoned?

Regarding this matter, the Presidential Palace held a special high-level meeting for a discussion.

“President, I think it doesn’t matter if it’s abandoned in the meantime. As our population grows, the development will naturally expand. Planets are not food, and they will not deteriorate if we leave them be! In fact, it wouldn’t matter even if we don’t use it, be it in dozens or even hundreds of years!”

“That’s right, we can just develop as much as we can do right now. We’ll continue with the rest later!”

Soon, several Board Members also voiced their take on the matter. It should be said that there was nothing wrong with this view. Planets were like wine, they got better with age.

Lin Zhen naturally knew this, but the Human Federation didn’t have time to slowly develop. With such a great amount of wealth in their hands, even if they didn’t need it for the time being, they should find a way to cash it out.

Besides, will the Humans be short of thousands of Star Systems in the future when they conquer more lands?

After all, there were more than 100 billion Planets in the entire Milky Way Galaxy. Wouldn’t it be better if they find ways to exchange their unused wealth for benefits to accelerate the development of the Federation?

“Any other opinions?”

Obviously, Lin Zhen was not very keen on the opinions brought forth.

“President, I think we can take out a part of the Star Systems in the Loulan Star Field and give it to the Affiliate Civilizations for points. We only need to delegate a region to ourselves, to ensure that our way out would not be blocked, while all of the remaining places can be put up for exchange!”

Lin Zhen looked at the aide who spoke, with a look of approval.

“Tell me about the benefits of doing this in detail!” 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

“Yes, this situation is the same as having a lot of money in our hands but we have nowhere to spend it. Obviously, we also don’t want to just throw them away like scratch paper. Instead, by doing this, we would be investing in the Affiliated Civilizations.”

“We have recruited a total of 48 Affiliated Civilizations in the past few years, but everyone seems to have forgotten the most fundamental reason, of why we were recruiting in the first place!”

“Was it just for the technologies and resources they contribute?”

“The Level 3 Civilizations can even help with the combat!”

“However, if without a push, these Affiliated Civilizations will never have a chance to develop. They would always remain as Level 1s or 2s!”

When the aide finished speaking, everyone except Lin Zhen and Ed fell into deep thought.

As for Lin Zhen and Ed, the opinion that the aide just put forward was consistent with their plans, so they have no problem with it.

“Alright, I have something to say!”

Lin Zhen looked at the crowd, clapped his hands and said.

“As Ryan said, we need to speed up our development as much as possible. On the other hand, we also need to make the Affiliated Civilizations become stronger, at least Level 3!”

“Ryan’s analogy is very good. These Star Systems are like money. The longer we hold it in our hands as cash, the more its value depreciates!”

“Everyone should know that after the completion of the Great Interstellar Wall project, the entire secondary arm will be ours. Now, how many Star Systems do you think we will have at that time? It will not be less than a million!”

“What we need to do right now is not to hold on to these Star Systems, but instead give them to the Affiliated Civilizations. Then, in order to acquire more Star Systems, they would naturally part with the resources they had developed, in exchange for more points.”

“At the same time, after acquiring a large number of Star Systems and richer resources, the Affiliated Civilizations will develop more rapidly. It’s a win-win situation!”

“In this way, maybe in 10 or 20 years, we will be able to organize tens of millions or even more Quasi-Level 4 warships! By that time, we will have enough force to fight the Babawi Empire!”

After Lin Zhen finished speaking, he simply looked at the contemplating staff, without urging them. Instead, he waited for them to digest his words.

“Indeed, our previous thinking was somewhat conservative. What humanity needs to do right now is not exactly not being conservative. Rather, we must become more radical in our approach.”

“That’s right. While we still haven’t entered the sights of the Babawi Empire, we need to hasten our development. I agree with Ryan and the President’s opinion!”

“I also agree. Otherwise, these Star Systems would be useless even if we hold onto them!”

“I agree too!”

After a few minutes, all of the Board Members had expressed their approval, and the matter was settled.

The next on the list was determining the allocation. Another one was to figure out the amount of points that the Affiliated Civilizations needed to pay to exchange for the Star Systems.

Lin Zhen did not participate in these matters. Rather, after several days of deliberation with the expert team led by Ed, it was finally settled.

First and foremost, the Human Federation would keep a total of 1,829 Star Systems, which not only ensures the Federation’s external channels, but also ensures the depth of the Federation’s territory in the Loulan Star Field.

The rest of the Star Systems were classified in grades, which had nothing to do with resources, as the Human Federation had no time to carefully explore all of the Star Systems.

Therefore, Ed proposed that it should be purely based on the size of the Star System, the number of Life Planets, the number of Resource Planets, etc. There would be a total of 10 grades, and the points required for each one were different.

As for what resources were in the Star Systems, the buyers could just think of it as a lottery: buy it and explore it themselves. Whether it was good or bad depends on luck.

After finishing all of this, Ed asked people to create a special Loulan Star Field Star System Exchange Interface in the Affiliate Terminal System. In this interface, the Affiliated Civilizations could easily view the basic information of all Star Systems and exchange requirements.

In the palace of the Og Empire, Chief Minister Aska was anxious as he suddenly rushed into the study of Oguras!

“Your Majesty, something big, something super important has happened!”

After rushing into Augustus’ study, Aska immediately shouted!

“Aska, what happened?”

Augustus also had a serious expression on his face. Looking at Askar’s expression, the matter was indeed not small. Could it be an invasion by a foreign enemy?

“Your Majesty, the Human Federation has just released the news on the Affiliate System that except for the Affiliated Civilizations, the entire Loulan Star Field has been completely cleaned up!”

“What!?”
