My empire of stars

Ten years later.

A desolate star system located a hundred light-years away from the capital star system of the Sith Empire.

This star system is located in the hinterland of the empire, but there are no residential colonies of the empire in the surrounding star systems, and there are also several large military fortresses of the empire around it.

This makes this star system the most ideal place to build a Dyson sphere. Once any accident occurs to the Dyson sphere project, it is unlikely to cause much damage to the empire, and the surrounding military facilities can also provide it with good protection.

In addition, there are no living planets in this star system. Even if the star's light is blocked, it will not cause devastating damage to the living planets.

Therefore, the Empire began to build construction facilities in this star system eleven years ago.

After ten years of non-stop construction, the main skeleton of the Dyson Sphere was finally completed. Due to the addition of a large number of advanced scientific committee technologies, the construction schedule was greatly advanced.

Five huge metal rings bound the entire blue star. In order to reduce the difficulty of construction, this star was specially selected with only one-eighth the volume of the sun but one-third the mass.

Between two adjacent metal rings, you can already see a huge grid connected by ropes made of biological materials.

Although this grid appears vast, it actually only occupies one-sixteenth of the star's surface area.

This one-sixteenth area is the largest area that the Empire can currently manufacture. Unlike large frames with simple structures, the cost of special algae that can absorb the light and heat of stars and convert them into energy that the Empire can use also restricts the construction of Dyson spheres. One of the reasons. In addition, there is the problem of facilities to extract the energy converted by these algae and connect it to the empire's energy network.

Although the Human Supreme Science Council has more advanced energy extraction technology in its technology library, the cruel reality facing Li Mingze is that they have no resources at all to build a more advanced Dyson sphere.

The current Science Committee is no longer the committee that ruled the galaxy at its peak. Hundreds of thousands of years of slumber have consumed a lot of their energy.

Therefore, Li Mingze could only choose to build the backward Dyson sphere first to provide a lot of energy for his next plan. Presumably, once that plan is completed, the empire will no longer lack resources!

Li Mingze, Tianyi and others arrived at the star system where the Dyson sphere is located early, waiting for the completion of the first part of the Dyson sphere.

"Your Majesty, would you like to activate the first part of the Dyson Sphere?" A scientist walked up to Li Mingze and asked respectfully.

"Let's get started, this will be the first step for our Sith Empire to stand on the top of the universe!" A gleam flashed in Li Mingze's eyes.

After getting Li Mingze's reply, the scientist reached out and swiped twice on his personal terminal, and a sudden change occurred on the Dyson sphere in the distance!

As hundreds of thousands of transport ships carrying nutrient solutions docked their cargo warehouses at the interface of the Dyson Sphere skeleton, countless nutrient solutions began to flow into the huge nutrient tanks built on the skeleton along the pipes.

Some black algae began to grow suddenly after the nutrient solution flowed through. If you zoom in on the cells of these algae, you will find that these algae cells began to divide crazily after the nutrient solution flowed through, and one cell became two. Two becomes four, four becomes eight.

In just a few minutes, these wildly dividing algae extended along a large network of biological materials.

Thanks to the advanced biotechnology the Empire obtained from the Corruptor civilization, the direction, extent, and quantity of this crazy growth are all controllable, and how they grow has long been written into their genes.

These algae will grow according to the goals set in the genes until they completely cover this huge grid area.

Five days later, the algae finally completed their growth. At this time, there was an area on the Dyson sphere covered by black algae, with no light shining through it.

Seen from a distance, this star looks like a cake with a piece cut off, no longer intact.

After the growth is completed, the black "Dyson algae" begins to work.

The black appearance makes them absorb light at a very high rate. The light and heat generated by the stars are absorbed by these algae and then transmitted through the internal meridians-like network to the huge bulges located on the skeleton of the Dyson sphere.

At this time, the empire's robots began to insert energy transmission pipes into the bulge, and a golden energy liquid flowed out of the bulge. The energy liquid produced when the energy was compressed to a certain extent was the final product of the Dyson sphere.

They will pass through the transducer and become members of the surge of energy in the Imperial energy network.

"Your Majesty, the first phase of the Dyson Sphere construction mission has been a complete success! Our empire can use the large amount of spare energy to conduct various scientific experiments in the future!" The scientist next to Li Mingze said excitedly.

"How long will it take to complete the remaining fifteen stages?" Li Mingze frowned and asked. If one stage takes ten years, then by the time the Dyson Sphere is completed, the Zerg may have already arrived in his hometown.

"Because we have no experience to draw from before, everything is moving forward by trial and error, so the progress in the first phase will be so slow. Now that we have sufficient experience, each subsequent phase will only take four years. That's enough." The scientist patted his chest and confirmed.

"Very good, then I'll wait for your good news. I currently have other uses for the energy generated by the Dyson sphere. Other scientific research departments should wait until the second part is completed before relaxing the restrictions on energy use." Li Mingze waved his hand and walked out of the room. .

As he disconnected his consciousness from the star system where the Dyson Sphere was located, Li Mingze woke up again in another deserted star system next to the border of the empire.

This star system is very strange. There is only one planet half the size of the earth and one star half the size of the sun in the entire star system.

On this planet that is only half the size and half the mass of the Earth, a giant hemispherical building with a height of 10,000 meters is buckled on an endless plain.

This hemispherical building is made entirely of pure silver, and its smooth surface refracts all the light that shines on its surface.

If you think this is an ordinary building, you are totally wrong. The outer armor of this building alone is five hundred meters thick!

The layers of shells composed of various different alloys and materials are firmly buckled together, completely isolating everything in this building from the outside world.
