( Rising-Star planet )

[ System Notification – You have entered the Safe-Zone, Rising Star planet ]

Max entered the tier 3 planet and the first thing he saw was the system notification telling him that he was inside a safe-zone.

Initially when Max had just reincarnated he did not appreciate the comfort that Safe-Zones brought him, as he did not put his life on the line 24/7

But now that his life was a rollercoaster of adventure, he found mental peace whenever he entered a safe-zone.

He had returned to Rising Star planet as it was the decided meeting point for the group after their individual attempts at securing a base of operations.

The group had decided to meet at the Oriental restaurant owned by the seven galaxies bank and chat while having a meal inside one of the VIP rooms of the restaurant in complete privacy.

Max’s VIP card gave him access to such private rooms across the universe and he was very thankful for it.

As Max reached the restaurant, he saw Asiva, Sebastian and Anna waiting outside the restaurant for him, as everyone had a big smile plastered over their faces.

Max chuckled seeing their smiling faces as he entered the restaurant and gave his VIP card to secure a private room, as the group sat and ordered before starting their conversation.

” My father has agreed to let us use an island on one of the elven planets as a base of our operations.

It’s a rainforest and has a humid climate, but the tall trees and thick forest makes it the perfect place to station armies with minimal surveillance.

The biggest benefit is that since it’s a planet primarily occupied by elves, it’s not a base where the Kingsman would be able to attack us freely.

Their ships will be blown to smithereens before they can ever dock on the planet if they try such manoeuvres

Also, since my dad loves me so much, we pay absolutely nothing to use that base

However, the downside is that Dombivli city is about 23 hours in a regular spaceship from the planet we will be on.

Too far away for proper logistic support. “. Anna said as she was the first one to give details on how things went on her end.

” Honestly, that’s not a bad sounding deal at all, well done Anna! ” Sebastian encouraged her, as he felt like there were a lot of plus points to her deal.

” My conversation with Elias was also okay. He offered us a moon planet. The temperature and living conditions are pleasant. The land area is enough to house 50 million troops if need be, however the moon is dirty, riddled with archaic spiders of varying strength.

If we go there we will definitely lose the weaker troops by the hundreds everyday.

Also the gravity is very weak, not good enough for most food crops to grow

If we want we can get it for 80 million gold coins a year, it’s not too expensive but still not free like Anna’s

The biggest plus of this moon would be it’s only 4 hours from Kingsman territory on regular ships, 1 hour in light class warships” Sebastian said as he bit into his food.

The sly salesman Elias had conveniently left out the details about the gravity and the spider problem of the planet, which Sebastian found out on his own after a little digging.

” We can’t afford to lose Titus clan troops by the hundreds before the fight even starts, although Vega has been generous, we still have to pay a war indemnity for every troop life lost in battle, and it’s not a small amount ” Max said as he expressed his concerns over Sebastian’s planet.

” Well my own offer is not much better than yours, it will hurt our pockets deeply but it’s otherwise acceptable.

It’s a planet whose borders will be secured by True Elites Kingdom, so unless the Kingsman clan has multiple destroyer class battleships, security won’t be an issue.

It’s about 14 hours away from the Kingsman capital on a regular ship, so while it’s far, it’s not as far as Anna’s.

It’s livable, slightly cold but acceptable, the soil structure is good and there is flowing water.

The only downside is that it’s gonna cost us 750 million gold coins a year to rent ” Max said as he brought forward his proposal.

The planet would have only cost 250 million a year to lease if Max went through official channels since it was uninhabited except a few snow giants on a particular corner of the planet, however, Neatwit’s new offer cost him 3 times the normal rate making it 750 million.

” To be honest, except the money it’s a good offer, however, I think my offer might just take the cake today ” Asiva said at last as she had a big smile plastered on her face.

” The snooping sweeper came through, Sam Saint Maximus has agreed to lease us Greensoil FOR FREE, his only requirement is that we build state of the art research centre and living quarters on the planet, so after we leave he can use it for the research that was stagnated after Max’s brother destroyed the facility.

It’s the closest planet we will find to the Kingsman clan, and while it’s not the best protected, it’s still difficult for the enemy to send multiple ships into Saint Maximus territory without possible retaliation.

I think it’s the best offer we have at the moment “. Asiva said as she sounded very proud of Severus’s persuasion skills.

While Severus himself was blind to it, Asiva and many elders of Saint Maximus Clan knew that Sam was grooming him to become the next patriarch.

His word carried more weight in the clan than he thought it did.

” I think that settles it then, we are going to green soil, everyone agree? ” Max asked as everyone raised their cups in agreement and had a bottoms up to seal the deal.
