Chapter 586: Golden Mirror Clone
Chapter 586: Golden Mirror Clone
This component was extremely special, not only possessing a unique mirror ability but also capable of reflecting external damage. The key feature was its remarkable compatibility with the Great Perfection Law of Light that he controlled.
Mirror Clone Lv.0
Quality: Golden
Attributes: Mirror Clone
Attribute 2: Can enhance the quality of mirrored components by one tier.
Attribute 3: Light Resistance +1000
Attribute 4: When installed, the battleship's interior is filled with dense mirror light, increasing the efficiency of comprehending the Law of Light by 140%.
Attribute 5: Mirror Refraction
Cost: 100/s (Shadow Energy Points)
Effect: The battleship equipped with this component can autonomously adjust its body and energy shield's light and shadow effects according to the environment, significantly reducing its presence.
No charging or buffering required.
Upgrade Requirements: 100 strands of Level 0 Floating Land Essence, 10,000 Shadow Energy Points, and 1 Mirror Light Stone.
Note: This component occupies 5 slot positions.
{Mirror Clone: Consumes 300,000 Shadow Energy Points to create a mirror clone battleship based on the equipped battleship. The mirror clone contains all black (Golden +1) and lower-quality components of the original battleship. Within a 1,000 light-year radius of the original battleship, the captain can remotely control the mirror clone in real-time. As long as the captain does not cancel it or the mirror clone is not destroyed, it can exist indefinitely. After cancellation or the destruction of the mirror clone, a 10-year buffer period is required before it can be reactivated.}
{Mirror Refraction: The equipped battleship will have a refraction aura. When subjected to external energy attacks, 10% of the attack's power will be refracted back at the attacker.}
After reading the detailed attributes of the component, Song Chi quickly made his decision.
"Brother Lan Cang, I'll take this Mirror Clone!"
The reason for his swift decision was not only because the component was indeed well-suited to him but also because he had another use in mind for its 'Mirror Clone' attribute.
With the upcoming full-scale war between the two river system communities, the level of danger was unimaginable. In such a situation, to ensure his safety, he would most likely stick with the main force and not venture out alone.
However, while this guaranteed his safety, it also meant missing out on many opportunities to scavenge or find hidden treasures in secret.
But with this Mirror Clone component, he could use the mirror clone to explore and scavenge secretly, ensuring his safety while maximizing opportunities.
Moreover, the Mirror Clone could replicate almost all the components of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, except for the Time Chessboard. This meant that the mirror clone's combat power was sufficient, and there was a high chance of significant gains from secret operations.
Both parties were extremely satisfied with this transaction.
Although the Mirror Clone component was top-notch, for Lan Cang, who followed the Water Law Path, its compatibility was not as good as the Sea Emperor Ring. The same was true for Song Chi.
However, after obtaining the Mirror Clone component, Song Chi faced another dilemma.
He currently had only four seventh-tier Sovereign True Spirits, which was insufficient to enhance the Mirror Clone to the eighth tier. This would prevent him from mirroring components that had been enhanced to the eighth tier.
...
Multiverse Bazaar, the trading space for Godly Country players.
After leaving the Radiant Star Tower, Song Chi immediately entered the golden oddity trading space, which had already reached its full capacity of 5 million players.
In the center of the trading space, on the player mission handover light curtain, a new task quickly replaced the original War Material Acquisition Mission, attracting the attention of countless Godly Country players.
Of course, this didn't mean that Song Chi had canceled the War Material Acquisition Mission; it had simply been moved to the second position on the task panel, with the new task taking the top spot.
"Look, the Capital Market Lord has posted a new task!"
"The Sovereign True Spirit Acquisition Mission: For every 10 seventh-tier Sovereign True Spirits submitted, you can choose one silver legendary oddity from the Oddity Exchange Shop. For every 200 seventh-tier Sovereign True Spirits submitted, you can even select a golden holy domain oddity."
"As expected of a task posted by the Capital Market Lord, offering silver and golden quality oddities."
"What are Sovereign True Spirits?"
"You can think of them as the essence left behind by seventh-tier Star Sea lifeforms after their death!"
"Seventh-tier Sovereign? Wow, do such great beings also die?"
For a while, the entire Godly Country trading space buzzed with discussions about this new task.
Song Chi paid no heed to the chatter and didn't linger in the trading space. Ordinary Star Sea aliens would never possess Sovereign True Spirits.
The major powers such as the Dark Night Elf Tribe, the Wizarding Civilization, the 5th-tier Demi-Human of the Divine Realm, and the recently joined Golden Ogres and Ancient Dwarf Clans, were unlikely to reach a deal in the short term.
Before leaving, Song Chi Song didn't forget to take with him the war supplies he had accumulated during this time.
With millions of players in the Divine Kingdom, even if only one in ten thousand of the foreign races came to hand in war supplies every day, the amount accumulated over two years was astonishing.
Chi Song estimated that if all the war supplies he had acquired were sold at the current market price, he could make a profit of several million strands of 4th and 5th-tier Celestial Sea Floating Land Primordial.
In a certain traveling room on the third floor of an inn in the Multiverse Bazaar.
"Please rest assured, Master, I will sell this batch of war supplies as quickly as possible."
Wang Zhen's eyes lit up as he took the multiple storage capsules from Chi Song's hands.
War supplies were the most profitable items, and Chi Song repeatedly entrusted him with large quantities of supplies to sell, which was a sign of trust and favor.
"Remember, try not to collect Celestial Sea Floating Land Primordial, and prioritize exchanging for special ship components, high-level untranslatable ship components, rare items, high-level mineral resources, and Celestial Sea Spirit Treasures."
"Understood, please rest assured, Master!"
As he spoke, Wang Zhen also handed over a storage capsule.
Upon opening it, Chi Song saw more than ten thousand various Celestial Sea Treasures, the most valuable of which was a silver-grade untranslatable ship component.
Chi Song wasn't surprised by this, as Wang Zhen was currently working on the Radiant Han Floating Land in the Tianpan Galaxy System, where there was a large base of Flame Keeper Captains.
After Wang Zhen left, Chi Song summoned Pan Ying.
Like Wang Zhen, Pan Ying had also been helping him acquire war supplies, but she was in charge of the Silver Disc Continent.
Taking the storage capsule from Pan Ying, Chi Song saw two thousand titanium crystals.
"Titanium crystals? Where did you get them?"
Pan Ying explained with a smile that they were used by a fallen 4th-tier family in the Silver Disc Kingdom to offset a batch of war resources.
"Not bad, hold on to this silver energy shield..."
Chi Song clearly valued Pan Ying more, not for any other reason, but because Pan Ying's future potential far exceeded Wang Zhen's.
She was only in her early 900s, and it was almost certain that she would become a Fearless Ship Captain in the future.
In comparison, Wang Zhen was over a hundred years younger than Pan Ying, but he was still hovering at the 4th tier, and there was still a considerable distance to reach the Limitless Stag Class Captain.
...
Time passed, and five years went by in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Chi Song stood in the main control room of the Heaven Ruin Skydome. With a thought, a component on the side began to flash with golden light.
Soon, the Mirror Clone component was enhanced to level 80.
Not long ago, he successfully acquired 10 Sovereign True Spirits from the Divine Kingdom player's trading space, and the player who submitted them was a 5th-tier Dark Night Elf.
After obtaining these 10 Sovereign True Spirits, he immediately strengthened the Mirror Clone.
When enhanced to the 8th tier, this component underwent significant attribute changes.
Firstly, the Mirror Clone ability, its controllable range increased from the initial 1000 light-years to a million light-years, which greatly pleased Chi Song.
From then on, as long as the ships created by Mirror Clone were within a million light-years of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, he could freely control them in real-time.
Secondly, the Mirror Refraction ability also saw a significant improvement.
{Mirror Refraction: The equipped warship will have a refraction halo, and when subjected to external energy attribute attacks, it will reflect 50% of the attack's power back at the attacker.} In other words, all future energy attacks from the outside world, when hitting the Heaven Ruin Skydome, will cause the attacking unit to receive half the damage, undoubtedly an excellent ability.
...
After enhancing the Mirror Clone component, Chi Song spent most of his time on comprehending the three laws.
Knowing that the law comprehension degree above 90% would have a promotion bonus for the Star Annihilator, he paid extra attention to it.
With the new support of Mirror Clone, in over a decade, Chi Song successfully raised his comprehension of the Law of Light to 81%, and even the Law of Time had already surpassed 60%.
As for the Law of Space, it had just reached 75%.
On this day, while still in the Multiverse Bazaar, Chi Song suddenly received a mental message summoning him back to the family.
When he arrived at the ancestral hall, more than four hundred people had already gathered there.
This was the result of the family's strict investigation some time ago. After the family's atmosphere returned to a positive cycle, many clan members regained their motivation. Under this trend, the clan added dozens of fourth-tier members in the past decade, and now, the number of Stag-class Ship Captains in the Song Clan has officially exceeded four hundred.
Upon Song Chi's arrival, he waited for nearly half an hour, and all the fourth-tier and above members gathered.
Yes, they were all present.
Not in the form of projections, but in person.
The situation had reached a critical point where war was imminent. Under the full-scale conscription order of the Flame Four Great Empires, over 70% of the Flame Keepers in the Human River System needed to participate in the war, leading to a significant reduction in the number of active Flame Keeper Captains on various Floating Lands.
Based on this, many large clans and families had to either shut down their shops or recall all their high-tier members, leaving the second and third-tier members to handle the basic operations of the shops.
The Song Clan chose the second option.
With everyone present, the clan leader, Song Xuancang, officially spoke in the main hall.
"According to the detailed statistics from the Inner Affairs Hall, our clan currently has 432 fourth-tier and above members, over 7,000 third-tier Cruiser Admirals, and more than 100,000 second-tier Frigate Admirals."
"The purpose of gathering everyone here is to discuss the first batch of expeditionary forces that will depart in a month. How many clan members should we send?"
Soon, a discussion ensued.
This time, the Immortal Qin Dynasty clearly stipulated that all subordinate families, clans, corporations, and large enterprises must contribute at least 70% of their members (Flame Keeper Captains) to the war effort, or they would be charged with cowardice.
No one would dare to defy this order, but it didn't mean that 70% of the clan members had to be sent to the battlefield all at once.
The most suitable approach was to divide them into multiple batches, rotating and replacing the front-line members in turns.
After some discussion, the four hundred people were mostly divided into three opinions.
First: Divide into two batches. In the first batch, 80% of the participating clan members will be drafted, and the remaining 20% will be used to replace those who die in battle, get promoted, or retire.
Second: Divide into three batches. In the first batch, half of the participating clan members will be drafted, and the remaining half will be divided equally for future rotations and replenishment every hundred years.
Third: Also divide into two batches, but only 65% of the participating clan members are needed in the first batch to ensure sufficient troops for future replacements and support.
After debating these three options for some time, Song Shiyuan finally spoke up and made a clear choice.
"Let's proceed with the third option!"
He continued, elaborating, "The advantages of the first option are clear to everyone. Drafting 80% of the participating clan members at once will directly expand our fleet to a scale of ten million warships. With this size, we can maximize our voice in the joint fleet and secure more benefits for the clan."
"However, I have received news from our ancestors that the Bone-Cracking Luo Clan in the Golden Plate River System has returned to the ranks of the Immortal Clans. In the future, our two clans will form a comprehensive alliance, and the number of warships in our joint operations will exceed twenty million. This will be an absolutely formidable force, and we need not worry about our influence."
...
A month later, outside the Dragon Spine Continent, over eight million starships, divided into multiple fleets, gathered in the starry sky beyond the continent.
These were the first batch of expeditionary fleets from the Song Clan. Among them, there were only slightly over a million Flame Warships, while the remaining seven million were ordinary conventional starships.
On the side of the Song Clan's fleet, there was another fleet of considerable size, numbering around six million. This fleet belonged to various ordinary forces and clans affiliated with the Song Clan in the kingdom.
Among them was the Philip Clan from the Golden Lion Star Domain, which had maintained a good relationship with the Song Clan for a long time. The Philip Clan had intermarried with the Song Clan for generations, and as a result, they were the first to reap the benefits of the Song Clan's rapid development over the past few hundred years.
For example, after the end of the Great Exploration War in Yao Han, the Song Clan spoke up and allowed the Philip Clan to occupy a star domain spanning nearly ten thousand light-years. After several hundred years, the Philip Clan has produced two Battleship Captains and nearly thirty Stag-class Ship Captains.
Despite this, the Philip Clan did not harbor any disloyalty but instead stood firmly by the Song Clan's side.
Within the six million affiliated warships, the Philip Clan alone accounted for one-third, a whopping two million.
Apart from the Song Clan, the fleet affiliated with the Morning Star Clan in the kingdom was even larger, rumored to have exceeded ten million.
