Many interstellar consortia have funded the construction, and the originally deserted and shining world is now a hot scene.

The three explored star clusters are under construction, the planets are being transformed and changing with each passing day, from time to time passing engineering spacecraft are displayed on the radar, the wide-area quantum channel seems to be quite lively, and the originally deserted shining world finally has a little atmosphere of integration with the interstellar society.

Han Xiao's fleet entered the Shining World through the Imperial Star Gate as usual, and the officers of all levels of the Exploration Army were very familiar with him, and the journey was unimpeded.

Arriving at the Lighthouse outpost, Han Xiao greeted Tarrokov and extorted a little souvenir before directing the fleet to divert to the Gaul Star Cluster to inspect the territory.

The Purple River Galaxy is located at the edge of the Gaolu Star Cluster, which is the location of the Entry Star Gate, which is Han Xiao's territory, so next to the Emperor ** Star Gate, there is a new Entry Star Gate Station, which is managed by the Black Star Legion.

Passing through the dark blue star gate, entering the Purple River Galaxy, and following the star map instructions, soon, a planet jumped into view.

"Legion Leader, that's the Black Gate Star, the closest gateway planet to the entry stargate, according to the construction blueprint, this will be built as a large-scale entry transit station, becoming one of the landmark gateways of the Gaolu Star Cluster, and also the border planet of the legion territory."

Han Xiao stood in front of the viewing window of the command room with his hands in his hands, looking at the huge planet, and beside him was a tall female secretarial officer, who was introducing Han Xiao.

Sylvia was busy, so she sent one of her secretaries over to accompany Han Xiao to inspect. Han Xiao had some impressions of this female secretary, and remembered that this person's resume was quite outstanding, and he was a cadre that Sylvia relied on more.

"Well, how's the construction going?" Han Xiao nodded.

"This planet has previously used the Red Empire's Planetary Transformation Quick Pack, and the Logistics Department has planned a new blueprint based on this, and the construction direction is a hybrid of an interstellar city, a military fortress, and a transportation hub. Because of the current focus on the construction of resource planets, the surface transformation of Hermon has only been completed by 4.9%, and the daily facility energy supply preparation is mainly nuclear fusion power stations, and dark energy power stations are buried deep underground, mainly for military fortresses in the future, but there are no natural stars nearby, so additional energy is needed to maintain a habitable climate and artificial solar ......"

Listening to the meticulous report of the female secretary, Han Xiao suddenly remembered the moving stellar drawing in the Telx mechanical inheritance.

When the technology reaches a certain level, the constraints of environmental factors will continue to decrease, and it is no longer the individual who needs to adapt to the environment, but the environment who needs to adapt to the individual.

Although the Tarks are not the winners of the exploration calendar, they are also a quasi-cosmic civilization, and they are highly skilled in transforming the environment.

It just so happens that you can use this moving star device to modify the territory and move the stars to the right places. Han Xiao said secretly.

He always felt that this kind of drawing seemed to have an inexplicable connection with the [Simulation of Everything] of the Divine Throne Mechanic.

Since his transfer, Technician Han has studied every new ability, but he is a little confused about the role of [Simulation of Everything], which simulates all the laws of nature through mechanical technology, and in his opinion, it has extraordinary potential......

Perhaps the amazing technology that the three major civilizations have transformed the physical constants of the home planet region is also related to the [Simulation of Everything].

Seeing that Han Xiao didn't speak, the female secretary paused and continued: "Now there are no people in the Black Gate Star, and when the Shining World is opened to the outside world, the Black Gate Star will become one of the landmark planets with the largest flow of people in the Gaolu Star Cluster, and the daily handling of a large number of tourists will bring you very considerable benefits, according to the statistics of the Ministry of Finance, in about six to eight years, you can recover the cost of transforming the planet." ”

"It's good." Han Xiao smiled.

The fleet slowly approached the Black Gate Star, and the star map showed the locations of several gates, some leading to several other galaxies, and some to other locations in the Purple River Galaxy.

Because the territory has been determined, the first task of the construction of the Black Star Legion is to build a stargate transportation network of seven territories.

During the exploration, the entire star cluster already has its own stargate transportation network, but it is a long-distance stargate, which belongs to the large framework of the star cluster's transportation, and what the Black Star Legion has done is to refine the stargate network of its own territory, add more transportation routes, and ensure that the seven galaxies are connected together and extend in all directions.

Now that the Territory Star Gate traffic has taken shape, you can directly travel to multiple galaxies from Black Gate, and the efficiency is much higher than that of the first phase of exploration.

With convenient transportation and a great time saved on the road, Han Xiao led the fleet to travel around the seven galaxies and visit all the construction areas.

It was the first time he had personally inspected the territory.

"Purple River, Long Day, Sigoma, Odolan, Ponsal, Fenrir, Edney...... This is the foundation that now belongs to the Legion. ”

Seeing the area of the seven galaxies with his own eyes, Han Xiao was quite satisfied.

His blueprint intends to make the seven galaxies the core of the Gaul Star Cluster, the most prosperous, which will take decades, but the requirement of the second ring mission of [Shining World] is only to complete the infrastructure of the seven galaxies...... In terms of infrastructure, a few years are enough, there are a large number of consortia to inject capital, and now the productivity of the corps is very strong.

After completing the general inspection of the territory, Han Xiao came to the Sigoma system in the center of the star cluster to check the progress of the development of the mechanical civilization of the Apostle Star.

The blue light of outer space flickered, the fleet jumped in, and a silver-gray planet jumped into view, and there was a large area of mechanical structure land on the surface, which was very conspicuous.

This is the first city built by the mechanical civilization, named Youzu City!

The ground of the city has been completely transformed into machinery, and the underground is an excavation shaft in the form of a base, which continues to penetrate into the underground veins and collect various mineral resources.

Under the leadership of the apostles such as Youzu, more than 100,000 first-generation mechanical beings have built arsenals, repair shops, energy plants, refineries, cultivation rooms and other facilities, integrating various mechanical technologies, and at the same time, millions of second-generation mechanical lives are incubating, and the whole looks more like the prototype of a military base.

There is also a huge mechanical statue in the middle of the city, which is carved in its own image, which is vivid.

Seeing this, Han Xiao was a little helpless.

I don't know why, there are always people who are keen to erect a statue in his honor...... Really, what's the use of giving me a statue, it's better to give a statue to Ferdin, maybe there will be a luck bonus.

The reproduction of mechanical life is large-scale, it needs to consume its own fire energy, and there is a cooldown time, so the speed of the riot of the mechanical civilization increases exponentially, and the more the population, the faster the rioter.

The [Mechanical Flame Proliferation] and [Mechanical Civilization Enhancement] brought by the Divine Seat Mechanic have the effect of strengthening the reproduction power of mechanical life, and Han Xiao is ready to stay here for a while and get a little more first-generation mechanical life.

Now the mechanical civilization led by Youzu has just started, and the overall population is not much, but although the sparrows are small and complete, mechanical beings of different models and sizes are working in their posts, and they look quite lively.

And not far from the city, the giant King Kong, who is hundreds of thousands of meters in size, with a group of giant soldiers, is moving mountains and mountains, bulldozing a towering bare ridge.

Without bothering the others, Han Xiao separately linked to the Ancestor's quantum network band.

Soon, a beam of blue light shot out from the surface of the earth and came to the front of the fleet in outer space, and it was none other than the First Apostle Youzu in mechanical robes and holding a war spear.

"See Juggernaut." The head of the ancestor.

The hatch opened, and Han Xiao flew out, glancing at him, frowning slightly.

Compared to the last time they met, Youzu had some new parts on his body, which seemed to be loaded by him on his own initiative, and it looked like he had filled in some weaknesses.

Mechanical life is good at this, and it will take the initiative to replace parts to strengthen itself.

"You're doing a good job, keep up the good work."

Han Xiao said a word of encouragement, and then a surging blue-gold weapon power popped out of his palm, and said with a smile:

"Let's take this as a reward."

As he spoke, he flipped his hand and slapped this weapon into the body of the Ancestor, which was the [Apostle Evolution] skill brought by the Divine Seat Mechanic.

In an instant, the electric current of the ancestor's whole body was ejected, the fire energy in his body suddenly increased, and the mechanical structure in his body received a strengthened baptism.

Han Xiao had been watching from the side, and after a while, the evolution process of the Hidden Ancestor slowly came to an end.

He experienced the change in performance, and then nodded towards Han Xiao:

"Thanks to the gift of the Lord, my strength has increased."

"Don't thank me, you deserve it, just do your job."

Han Xiao waved his hand, opened the panel by the way, and glanced at the current attributes of the Ancestor, the [Apostle Evolution] comprehensively enhanced the performance of the Ancestor.

The Apostle weapon can participate in super A-level battles, and after being strengthened by [Apostle Evolution], it can fight more closely with ordinary super A-level with the bonus of mechanical strength, and become more and more independent.

According to Han Xiao's calculations, the current Youzu should be able to defeat the ordinary clone before the evolution of the other god alone, but the premise is that the clone does not get too perverted abilities.

After sending the Hidden Ancestor back, Han Xiao went to the territory of the Black Spirit Clan again.

Compared with the rapid development of mechanical civilization, the Black Spirit Clan's side seems to be normal.

Although there is an efficient psychic communication network, no matter how efficient it is, it takes time to learn itself, and at this time, it is still slowly digesting the basic scientific and technological knowledge given by the legion, and it will not be able to get on the right track for a while.

The Black Spirit Clan itself is in an uncivilized state of ignorance, and these scientific and technological knowledge are too complex and advanced for them, and they need to learn from scratch.

Only by laying the foundation of each discipline will the role of the mental network gradually be revealed, and the knowledge shared by the whole family will be completed.

As long as it is on the right track, the evolution speed of the Black Spirit Race will become very fast, and in more than ten years to decades, it will quickly cross the Stone Age, the Iron Age, the Age of Enlightenment, the Steam Age, the Electric Age and other periods, and enter the interstellar age.

Normally, in addition to survival, the natural development of a civilization, the constraints of productivity and scientific and technological progress are the biggest problems, and it takes countless hours to explore, but with the intervention of the Black Star Legion, this is not a problem, the biggest problem is solved, and the development cannot be slowed down.

The technology tree that Han Xiao equipped for the Black Spirit Clan, in addition to improving various techniques, also has the means to develop mental abilities.

The Black Spirit Clan, which has the ability of mind networking, is born with super potential, and is most suitable for becoming a telekinesis and magician, and the awakening rate may reach an astonishing 90% or more.

Of course, if someone wants to transfer to the mechanical department, he will not refuse.

However, it is not unreasonable for the three major civilizations to restrict the interference of higher civilizations in the development process of lower civilizations, and if they continue to develop according to the path of their predecessors, they will only become the sub-sons that others want, and the innovation ability of a race will inevitably be affected.

For this aspect, Han Xiao doesn't have much to do, he wants to develop at a high speed, but he doesn't want to pay the price, there are no such good things...... But the Evolutionary Totem can solve this problem to a certain extent.

The totem subtly optimizes the genes of the race, comprehensively improves the indicators of the race, and includes intelligence and innovation ability. With the uncertainty brought about by the Evolver's Totem, the Black Spirit Race may not be able to have those flashes of inspiration that are enough to move the development of history.

Although civilization is a collective, sometimes, the turning point of history is driven by great men, and the existence of the evolutionary totem increases the probability of the emergence of great men.

Making a species better is the meaning of the evolutionary totem, and this is not a beautiful thing, and when you think about it, it is actually an extremely desperate reality.

Suppose there is a new species on a planet ruled by human beings, which does not conform to human aesthetics, like a monster, but not only is the body stronger than humans, but the brain is also more developed than humans, and all qualities such as learning ability and logical ability surpass that of humans...... At that time, human beings are no longer qualified to claim to be the spirits of all things, and all that remains is to rely on the technology accumulated over the years, which will be surpassed sooner or later......

It's better than you.

To live with it, to slaughter it, or to enslave it and erase its wisdom is a difficult choice.

The crushing between species is bloody, and there is never warmth to speak of.

And this is the terrifying thing about the Evolutionary Totem, and it is also the reason why the Radiant Federation and the Ethereal Sect cannot sit idly by and watch the Red Empire monopolize the totem...... However, fortunately, the cosmic-level civilization is advanced enough and has a certain genetic debugging technology, so it can control the ** of the armed struggle.

……

Taking advantage of the impact of the McNison incident, Han Xiao kept a low profile, stopped making trouble everywhere, and began to silently expand the mechanical corps, build the territory, and steadily improve his accumulation of heritage according to the plan that had already been set.

This is the stage you have to go through as a mechanic.

After McNison's victory, he did not take any other action, he returned to the old galaxy and did not provoke the Black Star Legion again.

As the two of them were safe and sound, they fell silent one after another, and the attention of all the forces in the universe to the two sides slowly decreased, and they looked away from Han Xiao.

At the end of the first phase of exploration, the Shining World is in the construction period, and countless forces are waiting to see the situation, so the environment of the explored universe has entered a period of calm and stability.

There were occasional small fights in different regions, but none of the civilizations at the cluster level and above broke out into too fierce conflicts, as if there was a tacit understanding that made them choose to recuperate.

The suppression and persecution of the Red Empire by the Radiant Federation and the Ethereal Sect are still going on in many fields such as economy, politics, and people's livelihood, although there are many frictions, but the situation is still under the control of the three parties.

The Red Empire has been under a lot of pressure, but it is still holding on, and there are gradually calls for opening up the right to buy totems within it, but it is still very weak.

If there is a theme for this era, it is "exploration and expansion".

This is not the development of a single civilization, a new star field is being incorporated into the map of the explored universe, and the significance is like the discovery of a new continent, which is enough to change the pattern of the world and is closely related to the future of all.

Although there is friction in the distribution of benefits, the whole universe agrees with the theme of the era and waits for the melody to be harmonized when it sounds.

Under the influence of this atmosphere, even the super A-level chose to be silent, and Han Xiao's battle with the machine country became the last super-A-level battle before the stable period.

In this delicate environment, time passed quietly.

??????????

Xinghai Calendar, January 17, 716.

Shine the world, Black Gate.

The dark blue entry gate spun rapidly, and a stream of light erupted from the center of the vortex, revealing the figure of a medium-sized spaceship.

In the cabin, a large group of young people in different costumes crowded in front of the viewing window, staring curiously at the Hermon Star in the distance, chatting excitedly.

"Is this the territory of the Black Star Legion, it's finally here!"

"I heard that Black Star has been staying in the Shining World, and it seems that I haven't heard from him for five years."

"yes, yes, did you say you could meet Blackstar himself on this trip?"

"I don't know if he and Principal Rakki are the same style ......"

"Shut up! Don't mention that taboo name! ”

One person covered his head in pain and fell down, as if he had an epilepsy.

"Ouch, come and help, he's guilty of PTSD!"

The people around them suddenly hurriedly launched first aid, and everyone watched the brother who unfortunately suffered from "Laki PTSD" being carried down, and couldn't help but show a heroic expression of sadness for the rabbit and the fox.

"Alas, another one has fallen."

There were several young people standing at the edge of the crowd, with a different aura on their bodies, and seeing this scene, one of them, a young man about 1.7 meters tall, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"It's too exaggerated, I don't think the principal is so scary......"

The delicate girl who was half a head taller than him on the side rolled her eyes, "Of course you don't care, why don't you want to think about how much of a mental blow those students with bad grades will receive." ”

"Yes, I thought everyone liked the principal's ......"

The young man touched his head and muttered secretly.

The young man was a human being, about sixteen or seventeen years old, but he looked very young, with clear eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, like a young schoolboy, well-proportioned, wearing a black and silver Legion uniform with the Blackstar Legion logo on his chest.

The woman next to her was pretty, full of energy, full of blood, with healthy wheat-colored skin, a hot body, wearing a martial arts bodysuit, and quite close to the young man.

At this time, the captain came over, patted the young man on the shoulder, and said:

"The garrison has sent a communication, you can answer it, save trouble."

The young man nodded, pressed a few times on the bulkhead of the spaceship next to him, and a virtual screen popped up, on which was the captain of the fleet stationed on the Black Gate Star, with a solemn face, and said in a deep voice:

"What department are you? Why haven't I received an internal transit application? ”

If it weren't for the black star symbol on the ship, the commander of the garrison fleet might have taken action to capture the ship.

"We are the first batch of graduates from the Sea Blue Star Black Star Super Academy, according to the rules of the academy, graduates can choose to join the training camp, or they can serve for the Legion for two to three years to get the opportunity to continue their studies, we are here to participate in the work of the Legion, you have not received the inside information, you must have been negligent."

"Wait a minute, let me check." The commander of the garrison fleet frowned for a while, and then his brows relaxed, "Well, there is indeed a special application, but you have come too slowly, and it has been a long time since the agreed time. ”

"I'm sorry, it's our first time in Shining World, we visited some places on the way, and we may have delayed our trip, you can check the ship's logbook."

The commander of the garrison fleet fiddled for a while, nodded and said, "Well, the spaceship review is fine, you guys can go over." ”

"Okay thank you...... By the way, can you do me a small favor and tell the Legion Commander that I'm here? ”

Hearing this, the commander of the garrison fleet looked puzzled.

This tone is not small, wow, what is the background?

He glanced at the young man carefully, but he felt a little familiar inexplicably, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously:

"Who are you? What is the relationship with the Legion Commander? ”

"I'm Nilo, and Blackstar is my godfather."

Nilo grinned, and a dazzling light flashed with a "ding" of his white teeth.

"I'm here to surprise him this time!"
