Survival of the Stars: Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"This is... some kind of spore life form? Interesting..."

See Donald seems interested in the spore creatures in the pyramids.

Li Meng felt that Donald should be reminded.

If one day Donald went to Planet One privately and disturbed those little things, it would be bad.

"These little things give me a very bad feeling, don't touch them privately, now is not the time."

Donald took a step back and bowed to Li Meng.

A hoarse, mechanical voice sounded from the hood.

"Regent, your worries are unnecessary. I will not touch them without your permission."

"That's good. At the moment, we still focus on development, and do as little as possible for other things, otherwise it will lead to more troublesome things."

Donald deeply agrees with the Regent's remarks.

At this time, nothing is more important than your own development.

Afterwards, Li Meng left the maintenance room.

As the regent, as the supreme ruler of Yuanxing.

Li Meng doesn't need to do everything himself, he only needs to formulate a general development direction.

Other things are naturally done for him by the Tech Priests of Mechanicus.

……

Journey No.

Upper palace, hall outside the master bedroom.

After leaving the maintenance room, Li Meng returned to the palace.

Standing in front of the glass wall, he was dressed in a brown-black military uniform, staring at the earth-colored planet outside in a daze.

Blue demon……

With a thoughtful look on his face, Li Meng fell into deep thought.

The trip to Star No. [-] allowed him to discover the alien species "Blue Devil".

And what the "Blue Devil" is, he has no idea.

Is it a strange creature, or an intelligent and civilized race?
Does the giant's destruction have anything to do with the "Blue Devils"?

There are so many answers I want to know...

The future has also become confusing with the emergence of the "Blue Devils".

Li Meng suddenly discovered that he was not alone in the S-01888 star system.

But he doesn't think it's a good thing...

"001, is there any news from boat 2?"

No matter what time, 001 will be by Li Meng's side.

Even if it is not there, it will only disappear for a while.

Either go to recharge, or do what Li Meng ordered.

"On the way back, do you want to connect to boat 2?"

Turning around, Li Meng faced 001 and said, "Connect!"

As soon as Li Meng finished speaking, a blue light shot out from 001's electronic eyes.

A blue holographic screen appeared in front of Li Meng.

There was a flash in the screen, and Pine's head appeared.

"What did you find?"

As soon as Pine appeared, Li Meng asked.

Pine nodded, with a serious look on his face.

"It's really been discovered. There is a huge hole in the North Pole, five kilometers in diameter, and it's bottomless. Regent, are you going to explore the hole? Maybe I can find something, and I can turn back immediately, it won't How long will it take."

Do you want Pine to go?

For a moment, Li Meng hesitated.

Everyone has curiosity, and Li Meng is no exception.

He also wanted to know the origin of the hole in the North Pole, and whether there was something in the hole.

Like the "Blue Devil" in the pyramid...

After hesitating again and again, finally, Li Meng gave up the idea of ​​letting Pine explore the cave.

"Come back, now is not the time..."

Yes, far from the time.

When one day his military power is strong enough, he will have no scruples.

"Yes!"

The screen flickered, and 001 interrupted the communication.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, Li Meng turned around and looked at the dark starry sky outside.

The next thing to do is much simpler.

That is to do nothing.

Yes, do nothing.

The construction plan of the ark has been put on the agenda.

Right now, the only thing Li Meng can do is to wait.

……

When Li Meng decides to be free, every day is destined to be boring.

After returning from Star No. [-], Li Meng became an otaku again.

Almost never left the palace 24 hours a day.

Either swim for entertainment, or use 001 to check the progress of the ark construction.

In the society of Warhammer 40 Empire of Man, slaves are ubiquitous.

Of course, although slaves are ubiquitous, it does not mean that human beings can become a kind of goods.

Not everyone can be a slave.

Only those who violated the laws of the empire, serious criminals, and death row prisoners, would become slaves.

Once enslaved, they are no longer human beings, but a form of cheap labour.

The Mechanic God taught them to transform them, destroying their brain tissue, making them lose their emotions and their ability to think.

They are like machines, working day and night.

I won't complain about suffering, let alone being tired, I will only work numbly until I die.

It is precisely because of the hard-working labor of slave labor that the construction progress of the Ark can be very efficient.

In less than three months, the dock of the ark has begun to take shape.

It will be put into use in more than two months.

Because it is a modular design, it is in a vacuum.

There are more options for build order.

In order to speed up the development, the shipyard and industrial area are prioritized for construction.

Because these two areas are connected, it saves a lot of trouble.

If you look at the planetary orbit not far from Yuanxing, you can see an extremely shocking scene.

Above the star ring plane, a huge metal building is gradually taking shape.

Although there is only an outline, it has begun to take shape.

A large number of "slave labor" engineering machines are working around metal buildings.

Some are welding, while others are transporting large and small building blocks.

The scene was very busy, and the white flames ejected from the rear engine formed a strip of light.

This belt of light connects Yuanxing and the metal building.

On both sides of Yuanxing's hull, all the harbor gates have been opened.

Construction machines and mining machines come in and out of the harbor, and there are endless stops.

Yuanxing is not only a colonial ship, but also a factory.

The two STCs operate around the clock, bringing enough production capacity for the development needs of the empire.

In the first half month, there were less than fifty mining machines and engineering machines that could participate in the work.

But since then, almost every day, several mining machines and engineering machines have been rolled off the assembly line and joined in the construction.

This is the power of the STC construction module, as long as there are sufficient raw materials, it can manufacture various tools.

And here, the most indispensable thing is minerals.

Of course, the reason why the output of "slave labor" mining machines is so high is also related to itself.

Compared with the "Iron Slave" mining boat, the "Slavery" mining machine has a simpler structure and is easier to mass-produce.

More than three months have passed, and the number of "Iron Slaves" mining boats is still ten.

The number of "slaves" mining machines has exceeded [-].

Although the number of "iron slave" mining boats is small, it does not affect the working efficiency of the mining machine.

The mining machine can directly capture asteroids and send them to the refinery of Yuanxing for refining.

Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner...
