<h4>Chapter 1756 A Monarch In The Making</h4>


    Hye knew the main advantage he got was these two scary warriors of his. They''d help him attack any enemy he''d like, but their number wasn''t that much at this moment.


    He only had three million of them. He evolved just a small part of them, and he''d even use a much smaller number of them thanks tocking enough suits.


    He knew Major''s fleet must have tons of these suits, but the most they''d have would be ten million or so. He didn''t have time to go through all the suits he had, but he estimated to have at most fifty million suits.


    This wasn''t practical, especially when thinking about his other warriors. In thest battle, he had to scatter his warriors in space, before deploying the ship.


    "The best answer to all this is to build grand factories and industries to make these ships, weapons, ammunition, and suits… But this will take lots of time, provided that the research department can crack the technology behind this…"


    As Major was leading the chase, Hye decided to collect loot from the dead bodies around. Most of them belonged to the other universe, and that gave him a ton of dark realm bones.


    Yet having these didn''t make him feel any happiness. His mind was burdened by all these unsolved problems he had.


    One week passed fast, and then the battle ended. Major tried to kill everyone, but many managed to slip by and escape.


    "I''m sorry," Major finally met Hye at thetter''s gship, "I failed to kill all of them."


    "No worries," Hye patted his shoulder, "there isn''t anything to worry about. Come, let me show you the ce you''ll live in the future."


    Major already had his own thoughts and ideas about Hye''s purpose of being here. He read through everything rted to his new lord, and yet he didn''t get close to what Hye really was doing here.


    When he learnt about the grand area of space that Hye controlled, the almost done defensive formation, thes getting built here, Major knew he was standing in front of a monarch in the making!


    All this happened without having enough backing or support from any major force. At first, Major thought the Toranks were the real owners of all this, and Hye was just acting as a front.


    But when he asked, he learnt that Hye did all this from behind the Toranks. He met Hye''s capable and long-term friends, met the pirate king and nymphdy, and got a special feeling about these two in particr.


    "A pirate? And an ex-merchant? What are these two doing here?" Major wanted to ask this question out loud but refrained from doing so.


    He felt like Hye''s intentions and ns ran much deeper than what he and anyone else could expect. He looked like a bottomless pit, a ck hole, one that couldn''t be read or fathomed by anyone.


    And that made Major realise he perhaps made the best decision in his life to join Hye. thinking about having his dream of revenge against the despicable leaders of his people look at this moment as something that could be achieved.


    He only needed to prove his worth to Hye, and thetter would support him in return. Thinking this far made him work harder, work with everyone else to protect and secure the colossal area of space Hye owned, waiting for the protective formation to get done with.


    Hye didn''t meet with his friends and generals for long. He just narrated briefly what happened, told them he''d secure any outer threat, and they just needed to push with everything they had to make the shield ready.


    At the same time, he stressed over the chance of the little survivors of thest war toe and cause trouble to them. So he gave out all of the normal ships he had, which didn''t make much of his current possession, and let them use these.


    As everyone went to do their tasks, he took Lily aside and started to speak with her about lots of things.


    This space wasn''t all dead and useless. First of all, they got tons of people and workers who used to mine crystals before. So far they had been very busy handling the security building the formation andying down thes.


    As things were about to get done here, he wanted to collect these workers and add them to his small pool of poption. At the same time, he wanted to know how many crystal mines they had, if there were any habitables here, and the foremost important thing, how they''d mine these crystals.


    Mining crystals wasn''t going to be something easy. He could tell that from the information he gathered so far about crystals.


    Crystals weren''t located at the surfaceyer of the ground, they were usually deep, nearly forming the core of any or meteorite. To dig these, one had to bring great digging machines.


    He knew the workers here had their gears already, but that was far from enough. Just in the past week, Lily gathered enough information about the area under his control, enough to make a highly detailed map of the entire zone.


    "We just scanned the general ces here," she said while motioning towards the map showing lots of things, "all the bigs, huge meteorite belts, and even old mines are all mentioned here…"


    "That''s not enough…" Hye was standing on the main deck of a big gship. He liked the shipsing from the other universe and made the research department add a few edits so he''d understand thenguage used in its system, "we need to scan every single piece of rock we have here. Anything we find is a gain…"


    "Weck tons of workers," sheined, "even if we moved the entire poption we have back there, it won''t be enough at all!"


    He knew she got a point, and yet trying to fill the ce with people wasn''t that easy. He tried, and it seemed the Toranks were aware of what he was doing here, and they apparently didn''t like any of it.
