Chapter 426: Expansion! Dilate! Dilate!

The carbon dioxide exhaust gas produced by the combustion chamber is not useless, carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, chemically inactive, and has a high thermal stability of only 1.8% decomposition at 2000°C, which means that it can carry high temperatures of up to 2,000 degrees Celsius, which is an excellent heat carrier.

At the beginning, a large number of underground cavities were opened to channel this carbon dioxide into it, and as long as there were enough cavities to contain the carbon dioxide and ensure that it did not pass, the temperature of the entire satellite would slowly rise.

But this will also lead to a problem, that is, the passage of liquid methane in the satellite, it is precisely because the temperature is below -161.5 degrees Celsius that the methane will liquefy, but now the overall temperature of the satellite is rising, and the gravitational pull of the satellite cannot lock these gaseous methane, and the methane will slowly flow into the cosmic vacuum.

"This is not possible, this is the stage of development, and every bit of resources cannot be wasted."

At first, of course, it didn't want to see such a mood happen, so it continued to place the population individuals, assigned these groups to other locations of the satellite, and took root in those places to transform into a hive and expand the rhizome, a large number of rhizomes densely wrapped the surface of the satellite, the silvery-white appearance changed to the epidermal color of the rhizome, and the gap between the rhizome was filled with organic materials, which was considered to completely seal the path of methane overflow.

The gatherers on this planet are like greedy gluttons, and they don't want to let go of any resources to eat up this satellite.

With this layer of external wrapping, many things are much more convenient to do, at least the temperature can be arbitrarily raised without worrying about the consequences.

The satellite's small size means that the kernel has already cooled down, and the collectors use the rhizome to penetrate longitudinally and continuously mine the space inside, and the material is processed into organic material to reproduce a large number of congeners, which are then fed back into the production sequence.

The ice melted into a liquid due to the increase in overall temperature, which caused a large landslide, but this was not a problem for the gatherers, and they had seen more serious natural disasters.

The rhizomes were planted in large quantities in the strata under the instructions of the beginning, not for mining, but to fix the stratum so that the landslides would not occur again, and the small difficulties were conquered.

"Hurry up, the community needs more resources."

"Good!"

The combustion chamber is not a long-term solution after all, the consumption of methane is huge, and the collectors need nuclear reactors, whether it is nuclear fission or nuclear fusion, as long as it is a reactor.

However, there are no radioactive materials on this planet, and there are very few heavy metals, so there are some solid iron in the cooled core.

At the beginning of the contemplation, it is thinking about whether to carry out transplanetary voyages now, it likes to do it in one step, since it is to carry out transplanetary voyages, it must complete the occupation of the planet, and exploit the resources on the planet, there is no reason for failure, it does not like to waste resources because of failure, every bit of resources belongs to the race, and waste is blasphemy.

"How's the exploitation of the resource going?"

I asked in the Life Field channel at the beginning.

"The satellites are small in size, not very difficult to mine, and now they are almost finished, and all that remains is that it takes time to disassemble and process some materials."

"Methane and other substances are stored separately as a material reserve."

"I think we can already expand on other planets, and we need to finish building quickly."

Hearing the proposal to speed up the construction within the channel, it hesitated, and thrift and speeding up made it a dilemma.

"But if you fail, it's a waste of time, or wait for more resources to accumulate before proceeding?"

"It's not advisable to wait, it's too wasteful to burn methane for heat, we have to get enough uranium-235 as soon as possible, and the population needs reactors."

"Okay, the minority obeys the majority, and now prepare for the transplanetary voyage."

After a simple communication, all the gatherers came to an agreement, unlike humans and Seren, the gatherers have no concept of infighting except for those who betrayed, and they will not quarrel because of their different ideas, and they may have different ideas, but soon these different ideas will reach mutual understanding and cannot form sharp contradictions.

At first, they began to set up high-power radars, using this large biological radar entrenched on the ground to calculate the distance between the planets to be reached and them by pulsing back and forth.

And then according to this distance, start to prepare resources, this is not a single colonization of a planet, in order to speed up the pace of expansion, it is to colonize several planets at the same time, so the amount of data that needs to be processed is relatively large, and the mobilization of resources will also take a lot of time.

But it's worth it, and in terms of overall time, it's less time than it would take to colonize planets.

Because of his experience, Chu decided to hand over the stall of this satellite to other clans, and continue to sail as a colonizer of the clan.

During the preparation period, the gatherers not only have to make material preparations, but also the preparation of colonization consciousness, to put it bluntly, on the whole planet, only the first ones have been practiced, and the other gatherers are only not long after they were born, and the genetic knowledge cannot be used flexibly, so they need to be given the first time to transmit their experience and understand the matters that need to be paid attention to in colonization.

To put it simply, it's one sentence - don't do anything, don't be reckless.

This is the lesson that the Gatherers learned through the forced colonization of the first gas giant, and the success of that time was entirely a matter of luck, and the next time is not a good one.

Time passed quickly, and there was the efforts of the collectors, and in order to hurry, the collectors tried to prepare as quickly as possible and meet the challenges of the voyage in the most complete state.

On the surface of the black-brown rhizome, long and large biological rockets are erected, and they are putting the finishing touches on the propulsion of the lateral creatures to ensure that they are used smoothly.

If it's damaged, they're not worried, it's just a bit of a hassle.

"Are you all ready?"

"That's it!"

"Finally, I'm talking about things that need attention!"

"Don't do anything, don't be reckless!"

"That's right, let's go!"

With the first order, the biological rockets of the gatherers slowly lifted off under the tail propulsion, and the gravitational attraction of the satellites was not strong due to their own mass, and the first they easily got rid of the constraints of gravity and sailed towards their respective destination planets.

The deep starry sky was illuminated by their flaming tail flame jets, as if hundreds of dazzling stars had appeared among the stars.
