Start with a Mechanical Hunter

Chapter 882: Unfinished Project

 “Oh, it turns out to be a giant structure of death.”

On the Scimitar, several light years away, the senior engineer was standing on the deck, talking to himself.

At this time, Gao Gong had completely changed his appearance. On the surface of his skin, white bugs squeezed out and fell one after another, especially the eyes, which were like tears, constantly secreting white eggs. This insect egg allowed his visual system to transcend time and space and enter an indescribable state. In this state, he witnessed with his own eyes the 'megastructure' that encompassed half of the red giant star.

 The memory worm that fell from his body merged with the Scimitar.

 The Scimitar, Du Zhaodi's body, is more like a ship-shaped insect nest at this moment, in which countless worms secrete, multiply, and devour.

 They are constantly combined to evolve a large number of memories, neural currents, personality ants, and logical fragments.

This is the information matrix, or in other words, the sleeping fifth-order information monster, a real civilized natural disaster!

 Gao Gong quickly canceled this model because he had seen what he wanted to see.

　　　‘It’s a giant structure of death, not a giant structure of life. So, this immortal species is about to die? ’

 Generally speaking, the ‘immortality project’ is the last step in the process of immortality.

But correspondingly, the success rate of this kind of "life megastructure" is much higher than the former.

But it’s normal.

Step out and become a true nobleman of the universe.

In the last life, from the early stage of the game to the late stage of the game, there were only more than 200 cosmic nobles. Their number was not even as high as that of advanced civilizations, so they could increase or decrease so easily.

The specific principle is not clear to the engineer, but generally speaking, the ‘death megastructure’ is aimed at the kind of immortal species whose life span is coming to an end. It needs to use a star that is also close to death to enter the realm of immortality.

This is not an official number, but a summary of data from players who participated in the ‘Eternal Life Project’ mission in the previous life.

 Even if Director Du was born to be a saint, he would not be able to participate in a project of this level so easily.

As we all know, a quasi-universe aristocrat whose wealth is based on civilization.

 Unfinished buildings, nail-biting households, demolition to get rich…

For example, it takes at least 10 billion years for an early star to evolve from the primitive nebula stage to the main sequence star stage, that is, to enter the mature stage.

 If you can't step out, you will be cold. The longevity species only have a long lifespan, not immortality.

So, what benefits can he gain from this process?

 The gestation speed of the latter is much slower than that of the former.

The ‘Life Megastructure’ is aimed at immortal species that still have a long lifespan. This kind of immortality project requires the help of the newly born ‘star’. With the help of the star’s gestation, one can take the step towards immortality.

 And if he wasn’t forced to do so, how could an outsider like Du Zhaodi be involved in an ‘eternal life project’ that was a matter of life and death?

 So the megastructures of the ‘Eternal Life Project’ are also divided into two types, one is called the ‘death megastructure’ and the other is called the ‘life megastructure’.

 The immortality project of the ‘Death Colossus’ has a failure rate as high as 90%.

 The speed and efficiency of the birth of the cosmic aristocracy, or in other words, the birth of immortal species, is much lower than the evolution of civilization.

 So based on this data, the head of this eternal chaebol will probably be in the cold.

 This project will probably be unfinished!

 As a veteran driver, Gao Gong relied on his rich experience to make this judgment.

 Compared to the ‘death megastructure’ which only takes tens of thousands of years to complete, the former requires an incredible amount of time.

 For a time, countless cool operations were skipped in the senior engineer's mind.

 The senior engineer is not immoral, he is only short of money now.

 No hurry, no rush now.

Let Director Du, a congenital expert in dust removal, work hard and gain a good impression first.

 Participating in an engineering project of this level is of great benefit to Director Du.

Gao Gong now feels that it is extremely wise for him to take the path of "mechanic civilization". Because the mechanic civilization has countless blueprints that can "strengthen infrastructure".

 He believes that the Immortal Seed will definitely be interested.

 …

 At present, among the spaceships in the high-tech camp, only the Star Destroyer can fly faster than light.

Therefore, during the process of picking up people, there was only one spaceship, the Scimitar, as Du Zhaodi's body. The senior engineer placed it in the "Civilization Evolver" and covered the hull with memory worms for protection.

 Once entering the super-light speed mode, there is a great advantage, that is, there is no need to pass through the "interstellar highway" and you can freely choose your route.

Moreover, this route is not the shortest straight line between two points, but involves more advanced spatial technology, like the best tailor using powerful craftsmanship to cut, fold, and cut a straight line, and finally shortened to hundreds or thousands of times.

Of course, this process is not as safe as taking the interstellar route, and you will encounter accidents anytime and anywhere.

 For example, this is the case right now.

The Star Destroyer quickly reduced its dimensionality, from super-light speed to light speed, and then to stillness. This process did not even allow the people on board to feel a trace of turmoil.

"What's this?"

 “So much lightning!”

 “Damn, there’s so much space junk!”

 “Is this a battlefield wreckage?”

In the eyes of the players, this is indeed a space battlefield. The number of remains is no less than that of the original meteorite belt. There are interceptor wreckage, engine fragments, half a shuttle and other air combat weapons. The senior engineer even saw a few planets. A, but they were all shattered into pieces.

If you are a space junk guy, you will be flying happily now. Among the players, many junk guys are also eager to try it.

But Gao Gong did not tolerate them.

What made the Star Destroyer stop was not the physical garbage, but the combined effect of these electronic garbage, which covered the field of vision with electrons of light, forming a strong electromagnetic field.

Countless rays of electric current have initially affected the spatial parameters.

The senior engineer patted the railing. Soon, the ship began to deform, and dense light spots protruded from both sides. The next moment, light like a meteor shower covered the space garbage dump in front of him. Wherever it passed, all electronic waste disappeared into thin air. .

 10km, 100km, 500km…

Soon, after the electromagnetic field formed by this space junk broke a hole, the Star Destroyer disappeared again and entered the super-light mode again.

 “Oh, there are so many treasures, why doesn’t the boss pick them up?”

 “I even saw a third-order electronic ram cannon!”

“Damn it, do you have any conscience? Is it more important to pick up trash or to save our fellow players!?”

“Nonsense, of course picking up trash is important!” Many players said in unison.

 …

 Not only players are discussing it, but also NPCs are discussing it.

In the captain’s room where Gao Gong was, Gao Yuanyuan appeared and said with great interest:

“Brother, in the electronic field just now, I seem to feel the fluctuation of life.”

“It’s normal. In this kind of ecology, virtual life similar to electronic ghosts can easily be born. Otherwise, you would think that so many information bodies in the universe were produced in a similar environment.”

Gao Gong is very calm. He has not seen a thousand or eight hundred of this kind of cosmic environment, and he has no mood swings at all.

“The ruins of some space battlefields can even give birth to ruins technology.”

“Relic technology, what is that?” Gao Yuanyuan asked curiously.

“The collision of military science and technology from different civilizations has resulted in new branches of science and technology.”
