"Qingqing, I have a great idea."
As soon as Lin Bei entered the Combat Control Room, he couldn't wait to tell Qingqing his idea.
Hearing this, Qingqing's eyes lit up.
"Master, this is indeed a good method."
"If you handle this long-range strike personally, it will definitely save a lot of ammunition!"
Qingqing said with a slightly excited tone: "Although the Manor Villa possesses impressive long-range striking capability, its ammunition reserves are quite limited. At the Villa's self-sufficient production rate, it can only produce a maximum of two Long-Range Cruise Missiles per day."
"That slow?"
Lin Bei was surprised.
He had checked the inventory before. Since its construction, the Manor Villa came with one hundred Long-Range Cruise Warheads, but he hadn't expected the self-production to be so slow.
"It's actually not slow. After all, the Manor Villa's Energy Core needs to maintain many devices running simultaneously. If all energy consumption were invested in producing ammunition, it could produce at least fifty such warheads in a day."
"However, as a trade-off, many functions of the Villa would be temporarily shut down. According to calculations, this would greatly impact your quality of life, Master."
Qingqing explained patiently.
"Oh, so that's how it is. That's fine then."
Hearing this, Lin Bei nodded in realization.
It was quite miraculous. This Perfect quality Manor Villa was like a massive High-Tech Black Box System; as long as resources were input, it could continuously produce various products.
Of course, performing this kind of foolproof operation required spending a certain amount of primal stone as material each time.
Otherwise... those high-tech devices would just be decorations.
"Sure enough, once you have a big business, the expenses get bigger too."
Lin Bei secretly thought: "primal stone, primal stone, you really are indispensable everywhere."
Fortunately, he was about to destroy the Bei Ming Hunting Group's stronghold. At that time, he could directly harvest a wave of assets and, combined with the Critical Hit System, gain a large influx of primal stone.
Thinking of this, Lin Bei's mood improved.
Currently, maintaining the daily expenses of the Manor Villa and expanding the island required a large amount of primal stone, and relying only on himself was quite strenuous.
But with these members of the Expeditionary Force, things became different.
Although these scumbags were morally corrupt, their actions were essentially a godsend for Lin Bei.
Furthermore, by killing other Survivors, Lin Bei could gain a certain percentage of Combat Power.
Given the Expeditionary Force's size of over eight hundred people, Lin Bei felt his Combat Power should increase significantly after this operation.
However, just to be safe, Lin Bei immediately instructed Qingqing to arrange for personnel to move a Healing Pod into the Combat Room.
Soon, after he pressed the Missile Launch Button, he would immediately climb into the Healing Pod.
This way, even if his Combat Power soared, he wouldn't have to worry about any physical abnormalities.
"Qingqing, what time is it now?"
Lin Bei waited for a moment, asking with some eagerness.
"Reporting, Master. It is currently ten o'clock in the evening. There are still two hours until the action time you announced."
"Are there any other Survivors within a hundred kilometers?"
"No, they have all evacuated. However, most of them joined the Expeditionary Force and are now lingering on the periphery, waiting to be deployed at any moment."
"Oh, then it's fine. Prepare to launch the missiles."
Lin Bei rubbed his hands together, saying impatiently.
"Hmm? Act now?"
Qingqing was surprised to hear this: "Not all members of the Expeditionary Force have gathered yet. According to the investigation results fed back by the radar, only about five hundred people are currently gathered at that stronghold."
"Forget it, I want to go to sleep early. Besides, the other Expeditionary Force members are quite far away and probably won't be able to gather quickly. Instead of wasting time, it's better to strike decisively."
Lin Bei waved his hand, having run out of patience.
"As for the other Expeditionary Force members, I have saved screenshots of their IDs. In the future, I just need to send some shadow tanks to hunt them down individually in the sea area."
"Then... I will now tell you how to operate it."
Qingqing nodded, then began introducing the functions of the different buttons on the Control Panel.
Lin Bei originally found understanding these complex things troublesome, but after completing his Class Advancement, combined with the development of his brain by his Super Intuition, he found Qingqing's explanation surprisingly straightforward and easy to grasp.
After just one listen, he completely grasped the core essentials.
"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect the operation to be so simple."
Lin Bei personally sat in front of the Control Panel, his face full of excitement, preparing to fire.
"Hmm... just to be safe, let's start with five rounds!"
Lin Bei immediately used the Long-Range Radar to lock onto five areas—southeast, northwest, northeast, southwest, and center—of the Expeditionary Force gathering point, and then clicked the launch button.
A massive boom sounded.
In the Villa's backyard, the ground split open on both sides, revealing the Missile Launch Platform hidden underground.
Five Silver-White Missiles, each two stories tall, were raised by automatic stands, ignited, and launched into the sky.
With the bonus from Lin Bei's skill, the flight efficiency of the five missiles was increased by at least twofold!
Lined up in a row, they resembled streaking fiery meteors across the clear night sky, beautiful and astonishing.
Inside the Combat Room, Lin Bei watched the missile markers rapidly flying under radar detection, and listening to the 200% Efficiency Amplification prompt ringing in his ear, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
Only now did he realize that the efficiency amplification provided by the Ammunition Expert skill was a comprehensive amplification, which could not only increase the rate of ammunition launch but also expand the ammunition's killing range.
Furthermore, there were many other amplification directions, such as increasing the electrocution efficiency of the Shock Grenade, enhancing the flame scorching effect of the Exploding Flame Bomb, and extending the freezing time of the Freeze Bomb, etc.
All in all, this skill... was far more complex than the few lines of text in the attribute description he had seen.
"Oh no, the speed is too fast! They're probably going to hit the target immediately. I need to quickly enter the Healing Pod!"
Suddenly, the smile on Lin Bei's face froze. He quickly scrambled into the Healing Pod and instructed Qingqing to activate the Automatic Healing Function.
Thankfully, his reaction was timely. If he had only reacted after the missiles landed, he might have been overcome by joy that turned into sorrow.
Luckily, the Healing Pod had a layer of transparent glass, so even lying inside, Lin Bei could clearly observe the scene outside. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about missing the beautiful sight of the final fireworks explosion... Meanwhile, the members of the Bei Ming Hunting Group, currently celebrating, were still reveling enthusiastically at their party, shedding sweat and passion.
Suddenly, someone felt a premonition and looked up at the distant night sky.
"Hey, look over there! It's a shooting star! It's a shooting star!"
"Wow, it really is a shooting star! And a fiery one! And five of them came at once! This luck... it's absolutely heaven-defying!"
"It seems even Heaven is cheering for our Great Expedition!"
"I can't wait, I'm making a wish right now! I wish I can get enough benefits when we attack Bei Ming!"
"I'm wishing too! I wish I can get at least a hundred... no, a thousand primal stones!"
"I wish for eternal stamina and to exercise with a group of beauties every day!"
"I wish I could fly into the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun and moon!"
