Global Deities: My SSS-Rank Talent Lets Me Evolve Everything

Chapter 151: Breeding the Highest Intelligent Life

“Reporting to Master.” Yang Yi bowed slightly, his tone calm, “With the current assets of the Divine Kingdom, it is sufficient to support the early development of the Mechanical Path.”

“However, the Mechanical Path belongs to a high-consumption System and requires long-term investment of massive Resources, including various metals, equipment, research institutes, and core creation units.”

“At the same time, it also needs to occupy quite a bit of land in the Divine Kingdom. If we choose to develop it, it will slow down the development speed of the Cultivation and Martial Arts believers for quite a long time.”

Yang Fan’s gaze narrowed slightly, “How will it drag us down? Give a detailed analysis.”

“Starting large model calculation…”

Yang Yi’s voice paused slightly, and then a string of data unfolded in the Void Realm.

“First, capital consumption. In the Early Stage, it is necessary to purchase the Mechanical Heart (basic grade), F-grade industrial metals, energy cores, conduction Materials, and various special minerals. The initial investment alone is expected to be no less than 10 million Divinity Points.”

“Second, land occupation. It is necessary to allocate about 1 million square kilometers of land for the development of the Mechanical Divine Kingdom. This area will be used for the construction of Mechanical cities, production lines, material reserve zones, and basic research institutes. This move will compress the living space of believers on a small scale and affect population growth.”

“Third, resource diversion. In the Early Stage, the Mechanical System cannot form effective combat power, and all investments are pure consumption. It will significantly reduce the resource supply for Cultivation and Martial Arts believers.”

“Fourth, maintenance costs. Mechanical units require regular maintenance and consume a large amount of metal Resources. In the long run, resource consumption will continue to grow.”

“According to comprehensive calculations, under the premise of not reducing investment in believers, given the current income and expenditure structure of the Divine Kingdom, the funds will be completely exhausted in about 30,000 years.”

After listening to Yang Yi’s report, Yang Fan chuckled softly.

When all was said and done, it was still a matter of money.

And what he lacked least happened to be time and funds.

Thirty thousand years? Under the Hundredfold Evolution Talent, it was only ten months, and it was impossible for him to do nothing during these ten months.

Divine Kingdom War, Divine Kingdom expansion, resource plundering, and Divine Kingdom investment would all proceed simultaneously.

The extra land could completely continue to be used for investment.

High-yield projects like the Dragon Marsh Water Mansion and Spirit Peach Mountain occupied a huge area and had an investment cap, but he had more flexible choices.

Fixed assets such as the Moon Well and Sun Spring occupied very little land, yet they could continuously output returns.

Today, the area occupied by the 500,000 Moon Wells and Sun Springs was even less than one percent of the total area of the forest where the Elf Race resided.

The annualized yield of a single Moon Well was only 12%, but under the blessing of the Evolution Talent, it was 1,200%.

A full twelvefold return in a year was already an extremely terrifying payout. As long as Yang Fan was willing, even if he took the most conservative investment route, he would not lack funds.

Thinking of this, Yang Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he already had a decision in his heart.

The Mechanical Path should indeed be put on the agenda.

“Yang Yi, I want to develop the Mechanical Divine Kingdom. Give me a complete plan. No need to consider funding issues; the goal is to let the Mechanical Path catch up with the Cultivation and Martial Arts Systems at the fastest speed,” Yang Fan commanded.

“Yes, Master,” Yang Yi immediately responded.

“Apply to purchase Mechanical Heart X1, Elementary industrial city X1 (covering an area of about 1 million square kilometers).”

“Supporting facilities include energy conversion devices, Mechanical production lines, and intelligent control centers.”

“Resource-class purchases include F-grade metals, recycled metal reserves, conductive Ores, energy crystals, and industrial modules.”

“Auxiliary facilities include ordinary research institutes (Elementary), maintenance centers, and resource dispatch Systems.”

“Total initial investment is about 10 million Divinity Points.”

“Approve the application,” Yang Fan said without hesitation.

“In addition, please give me temporary Divine Decree authority to migrate some believers.”

“They will serve as the first batch of targets cultivated by the Mechanical System.”

“Approved.”

…

“In addition, purchase Moon Wells and Sun Springs in batches from the market. The more the better,” Yang Fan said.

“Master, the returns on such assets are relatively low, and large-scale investment is not recommended. Moreover, the current ecology of the Elf Race is already sufficient to support its development,” Yang Yi reminded.

“Then do you have a better investment choice? The Dragon Marsh Water Mansion and Spirit Peach Mountain occupy too much area and are close to the investment cap,” Yang Fan asked rhetorically.

“If Divine Kingdom investment is the core direction, it is recommended to prioritize purchasing Spiritual Veins. Not only can they significantly optimize the environment of the Divine Kingdom, but their returns also far exceed low-level buildings like Moon Wells.”

Hearing this, Yang Fan could not help but slap his own head, “If you had not mentioned it, I would have forgotten. I am currently in Taichu City and possess the purchasing authority for Spiritual Veins. As an A-grade building, even if we only count the output of Spirit Stones, its returns far exceed C-grade buildings.”

“Yang Yi, start purchasing Spiritual Veins on a large scale. On Penglai Island, on the ground of the Divine Kingdom, at the bottom of the rivers—as long as the Divine Kingdom has space, bury them all and max out the Spiritual Vein investment first!” Yang Fan said.

“But Master,” Yang Yi’s tone paused slightly, “This move will consume a huge amount of funds and is very likely to seriously slow down the development pace of the Divine Kingdom.”

“Do as I say,” Yang Fan directly interrupted.

“After the Spiritual Veins are fully paved, continue to purchase Moon Wells and Sun Springs on a large scale. Reserve 100 million Divinity Points as emergency funds, and invest all the rest.”

“As for the funds for the development of the Divine Kingdom, you do not need to worry.”

Yang Fan’s command fell, leaving no room for doubt.

Under the Hundredfold Evolution Talent, in the Real World, it would not exceed two months for all investments to be fully recouped.

Lacking Resources? That did not exist at all.

As long as Yang Fan was willing, the investment returns of the Divine Kingdom could even multiply several times over.

Consciousness returning to reality, Yang Fan let out a light breath.

“These Intelligent Life forms cannot perceive the SSS-Rank Evolution Talent. To a certain extent, their judgments instead limit the development upper limit of the Divine Kingdom.”

“Should I… set a set of rules for them? Making decisions according to the hundredfold time flow rate of the Divine Kingdom?” Yang Fan frowned slightly and murmured in a low voice.

But soon, he rejected this idea.

The SSS-rank Talent was his biggest trump card and also his biggest hidden danger.

Even though Yang Yi, Yang Er, and Yang San were bound to the Origin of the Divine Kingdom, they were produced from other Mechanical Divine Kingdoms after all.

Even if the risk was only one in ten thousand, or even one in a hundred million, he was not willing to gamble.

As his strength increased and he saw more, Yang Fan became even more cautious instead.

“Forget it, it is mainly deviations in investment judgment. I will just keep a closer eye on them from now on,” Yang Fan muttered to himself.

…

Meanwhile, changes had already taken place inside the Divine Kingdom.

Under Yang Yi’s overall arrangement, the Mechanical Civilization had already begun to take shape.

Overlooking the entire Divine Kingdom, the pattern gradually became distinct: On Penglai Island, clouds and mist curled, and Spiritual Qi was like a tide. Cultivation believers sat cross-legged and breathed in and out, just like a fairyland. In the left-leaning area of the Divine Kingdom’s ground, the blood and qi of Martial Arts believers soared to the sky, and the Worlds Number One Martial Arts Arena stretched out in patches. Fist Intent, Saber Intent, and Battle Intent converged like a flood. On the right side, a brand-new city quietly rose.

That was a city of a completely different style.

Steel as the bones and metal as the walls, the city was piled with all kinds of Resources.

High-purity metals, energy crystals, Mechanical components, modular assemblies, and even food were decomposed into standardized reserve units.

The entire city was cold, orderly, and efficient, without the slightest redundancy.

Inside the city, a full 5 million believers knelt on the ground in utter silence.

All their gazes converged at the center of the city, where a ball of pure white light was suspended in mid-air.

The light was soft yet filled with a sense of oppression, as if it were breeding a certain supreme life.

“Mechanical Heart…” Yang Fan whispered to himself.
