Chapter 473: Resource Competition

Yang Fan stood up, pushed open the door, and slowly walked over to the dining table.

At this moment, the intelligent robot also happened to walk out of the kitchen, serving plates of fresh spiritual fish slices.

"Husband, there is good news."

Lu Wan walked over quickly, holding an electronic tablet in her hand.

"What good news?"

Yang Fan looked at Lu Wan curiously.

"The Divine Kingdom War video between Ma Huainan and Lu Mingshi has already spread among the Five Great Families."

"Right now, not many low-tier gods from the Sima Family are willing to continue going to support them."

"And those who have already joined the battle are also starting to get cold feet."

"Some gods are already applying for Family subsidy quotas, otherwise they are prepared to withdraw from the war."

As Lu Wan spoke, she handed the electronic tablet in her hand to Yang Fan.

After taking it, Yang Fan's gaze quickly swept over the information on it.

The news that Ma Huainan's Divine Kingdom had been invaded had long since spread throughout the Five Great Families.

After all, this war involved too many gods.

Regardless of the scale of the war or the resources invested by both sides, it had already become the focus of internal attention within the Five Great Families.

And relying on her own connections, Lu Wan could naturally easily understand the Sima Family's current true attitude.

During this period of time, Yang Fan would obtain the latest situation of the Sima Family from Lu Wan every day.

Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

Yang Fan was very clear that although he possessed formidable strength, if the Sima Family truly protected Ma Huainan at all costs, it would be utterly impossible for him to win.

However, unfortunately, a large Family was not a place dictated by a single individual.

Especially reaching the level of gods, what everyone considered ultimately still boiled down to interests.

Even a High-tier God could not forcibly command low-tier gods to invade or protect a certain person's divine kingdom without paying any price at all.

All of this was because of the restrictions imposed by the rules of the divine kingdom.

The believers of High-tier Gods could not invade the divine kingdoms of low-tier gods.

Therefore, looking across the entire Human Race,

low-tier gods would revere High-tier Gods, but they would never be utterly loyal purely out of fear.

Whether it was a corporation, a large faction, or a Family, essentially they were all a community of shared interests.

Through methods like taxation, business, and equity, everyone worked together to make the pie bigger.

In the end, High-tier Gods took away more benefits, while low-tier gods obtained corresponding resources.

Relying on this method, the entire system could operate stably for a long time.

Therefore, what Yang Fan truly needed to do was never to defeat the entire Sima Family.

But rather to make those gods who came to support feel the pain of war losses.

To make them feel that continuing to persist was no longer worth it.

When that time came, they would naturally choose to retreat.

Looking at the internal chat screenshots of the Sima Family on the electronic tablet, as well as the headline reports on various news media, a trace of a smile couldn't help but curl the corners of Yang Fan's mouth.

"It seems things are going very smoothly," Yang Fan said calmly.

"Husband, does Lu Mingshi still need war supplies over there?"

Lu Wan couldn't help but speak up:

"During this period, I procured quite a bit of war resources through the company, and I can transfer them to him free of charge."

Over this period, Lu Wan had also watched quite a few Divine Kingdom War videos leaked by the Sima Family.

Even with her current net worth, seeing the consumption within them couldn't help but make her heart skip a beat.

Only about ten days had passed in the real world.

The war resources invested by both sides into the battlefield had already exceeded one hundred trillion Divinity Points.

Coupled with the continuous demise of high-tier believers, the resources truly consumed by both sides probably already exceeded three hundred trillion Divinity Points.

Such terrifying consumption was almost catching up to the value of an undeveloped Earth-grade Secret Realm.

In Lu Wan's view, the strategy Lu Mingshi was currently adopting was to completely gamble everything and crush the opponent at the fastest speed.

This was a fighting style that pushed the divine kingdom's daily war investment to the limit.

The resources invested by both sides could be called massive, and no one knew how much longer the opponent's resources could hold out.

This kind of war was essentially no longer just a collision of strength.

It was even more of a psychological game.

Whoever felt they couldn't hold on first would be the first to yield.

Precisely because of this, Lu Wan wanted to directly hand over the large amount of war supplies acquired by the company previously to Lu Mingshi to help him relieve pressure.

"Wan'er, you don't need to worry about this matter."

Yang Fan smiled and shook his head.

"We are very well prepared."

Yang Fan had indeed pushed the Frontline war investment to the limit.

On the battlefield now, even the most ordinary zombies were equipped with a corpse pill and covered in detonating talismans.

As long as they were believers participating in the war, all kinds of war supplies would be fully equipped.

Mainly featuring a desperate attitude that cared about neither lives nor money.

But the reason why Yang Fan did this was not to end this war as soon as possible.

But rather because… the consumption speed of the war was simply too slow for him.

So slow that it couldn't keep up with his resource procurement speed at all.

For Yang Fan right now, war resources were the thing he lacked the least.

Even if these gods of the Sima Family continued to persist in the real world for a year, or even longer,

he would accompany them to the very end.

For him, who possessed the Evolution Talent, the longer time was dragged out, the more obvious his advantage would become.

Looking at Yang Fan's confident expression, Lu Wan's heart also relaxed slightly.

But the next moment, as if she suddenly thought of something, her gaze changed slightly.

"Husband, do you… lack Divinity Points?"

Lu Wan asked suddenly while eating her meal.

Hearing these words, Yang Fan instantly became alert in his heart, but his face didn't show the slightest change.

"It's alright. This war mainly relies on Lu Mingshi; after all, this is his foundation accumulated over hundreds of years."

"I'm afraid I'm going to owe him a huge favor."

Yang Fan said in a calm tone.

"Is that so."

Lu Wan nodded, a smile returning to her face.

"Husband, rest assured, our Family will not forget this kindness."

As she spoke, she picked up a piece of fish slice and placed it into Yang Fan's bowl.

"Eat slowly, Husband, I have a meeting to attend."

Having said that, Lu Wan stood up and walked upstairs.

Watching her retreating figure, Yang Fan finally let out a soft sigh of relief.

If Lu Wan were to find out… that back then he rejected that one hundred trillion Divinity Points of dowry, not because of some bullshit love and responsibility, but purely because he simply didn't lack money at all,

this submissive wife of his probably wouldn't be so easy to fool anymore.

…

Arriving on the second floor, Lu Wan pushed open the office door and then closed it behind her.

She sat down in front of the desk and gently snapped her fingers.

The next moment, a light blue light screen emerged out of thin air, hovering directly in front of her.

"Master, these are all the capital cash flows and various resource transfer records of the Yang Corporation during this period of time."

The voice of the Intelligent Life resounded directly in Lu Wan's mind.

Looking at the various data on the light screen, Lu Wan's brows gradually knitted together.

"War supplies worth nearly one hundred trillion Divinity Points were procured some time ago, why are there no capital expenditure records?" Lu Wan asked.
