Volume 1 The Encounter of Fate Chapter 78 Fortune and Balloons
The carnival of indulgence will come to an end one day, and the Morning Star, standing on the surface of Alpha 137, or ItGleasson, doesn't know if it's the right decision, but now that the order has been given, just carry it out.
The Eyes of the Goddess rested on a large flat ground, and beside it stood a dense crowd of people, numbering thousands. That's not a lot for a star, but as a pioneering team, it's huge. Among these people were immigrants from the Alliance Havenstar, soldiers from the Republic loyal to Leighton, and a construction unit sent by Vystock who had just arrived. Seeing the crowd in front of him, Morningstar couldn't help but feel a little lucky. The marching tent researched by Anshidar was produced a lot more at the request of Morning Star, and was originally intended to be given to the three forces as a sample, but now it seems that there is still a bit of a shortage.
At the signal of Morningstar, Anshidar continued to drill into the laboratory to speed up production, while the rest of the group took out the map that had been prepared for a long time and began to study the relevant plans.
With a loud explosion, simple dwellings appeared out of thin air on the flat ground not far away, which surprised the Imperial Construction Army, who was still preparing to start the construction machinery.
Thousands of people quickly entered the orderly work under Leighton's arrangement, and for this team, the top priority was to quickly build up the infrastructure, after all, it was impossible for only these people to stay at ItGleson, and the basic living facilities required by the subsequent personnel must be guaranteed.
There were more than a dozen people gathered around Leighton, and these people were the leading figures among the various forces, in other words, leaders. This kind of large-scale reclamation has occurred many times in the course of human interstellar navigation, and Layton has done a lot of homework before. Now when it's time to see the real chapter, it turns out to be handy. Leighton divided the people into four groups, one group was the person in charge of security, the number was small, and the position was rotated. Because Morningstar once told him that there is a large army of insects stationed on this planet, which belongs to Quinn's troops. Before the humans arrived, the Alien Insect Force, under the command of Abbathhar, had carpeted through Itgleason, completely eliminating the threat from wild animals. The main purpose of setting up this group of security personnel is to maintain internal security. After all, it is a multi-party cooperation model, and frictions are inevitable, and the main task of the security forces is to act in time to avoid casualties before the situation gets out of control. Another role of this group of people is to serve as medical transport, and the people who have migrated to Eit Gleason will inevitably have some discomfort due to the sudden change in the environment, and timely treatment is necessary. The second group was the main force responsible for the construction, and the Morning Star gave them a very old name that was full of the characteristics of the Republic, called the Production Corps. The name is very apt, the main force of the production corps is the imperial construction troops sent from Vistock, these people are all soldiers, all of them are soldiers who have mastered various architectural abilities, among which there are many architects, materials scientists and other experts in various fields, these people are mixed with the troops brought by Leighton to form the production corps. The third group is the Medic, which had already begun to be built up by Leighton as soon as he began to prepare for Tula's prophecy. Today, they brought with them the most advanced medical equipment, medicines, and technology from the entire human camp to ensure the health of these first settlers of Itgleason as much as possible. The fourth group is the largest group, with more personnel than the production corps. This configuration is what Layton insists on, believing that a stable social structure requires a large number of basic workers, and that food, clothing, shelter and transportation are the most basic needs. The four groups are responsible for a lot of work, the most important of which is to provide food for thousands of people. Although the marching meal can ensure the supply of energy and nutrients, if you eat it for a long time, the sour taste will definitely drive people crazy, so there are a large number of people in the four groups who are good at cooking. The second is the systematic division of the plants and animals on Itgleson, as in the age of the earth, a wide variety of plants and animals always need to be classified, so that their role and safety can be recognized. At Morningstar's insistence, the team equipped the group with state-of-the-art equipment for the group of people who went out to collect and summarize data, and even sent the most elite mecha troops under Layton to protect them. At all times, the reserve of knowledge is the most important thing for a group. Even if it won't be used for a while, knowledge will always shine brightly at some moments.
After the overall framework is determined, Leighton has received various detailed divisions from his subordinates, and after analyzing them one by one, he has given strong support to the parts that need to be retained, and some dispensable classifications are to find people to serve as concurrently, after all, manpower is limited, and it is a very good choice to improve the utilization rate.
Morningstar felt that he was a little redundant, and in such an environment, what Morningstar was good at was useless, and after asking Layton to take his leave, Morningstar accompanied Quinn to another continent of Itgleason.
The continent was named the Steel Cast Body by the Morning Star, because it was the main base of the Insect Army, and the Insect had a body that was far stronger than that of humans and Psindus, and the poor Morning Star gave this continent such a name. The other two continents on the planet are the Heart of Collaboration and the Chosen One, the former being the one being developed by Layton, and the latter being the reserved area to be developed, and the Morning Star has given it such a name, a glimmer of hope for the allies of Psenchus.
Above the steel body, there is a harmonious scene. Those insects that are extremely vicious in the legend and bring destruction everywhere they go are now perfectly integrated into the environment. Under the control of Abasser, the number of insect swarms here is not very large, and it is precisely because of this that the demand for supplies for insect swarms has also been reduced to a minimum, so that there can be such a harmonious scene.
Morningstar and Quinn are seen in a large hive of insects in the midst of the trees. The strange insect's head seemed to be much bigger than it had been when I first saw it. Abbather explained that he had evolved again, with a more developed brain and a better grasp of many evolutionary techniques. Morningstar was convinced of Abbather's words, because after he came to the steel form, he saw many creatures that he had never seen before, but with obvious alien characteristics. Even Wangcai, who evolved into a herbivore, has changed, and the spikes on the surface of the body have now turned into rounded protrusions, making people look a little more friendly. Morningstar touched Wangcai's head, and he no longer had to worry about his palm being scratched by bone spurs on his body. On the opposite side of Wangcai are the Wyverns of the Abbathar Race, which are much larger than the ones Morning Star saw on Haven Star, and their bodies are even more yellowish. According to Abasser, these dragons can further evolve into other forms, with greater size and destructive power. However, Morningstar rejected Abbather's cover-up, and in the current situation, it is not suitable for too aggressive troops to appear, and development is the mainstay.
Knowing that the human forces were developing in a cooperative spirit, Abbathhar proposed the idea of sending an insect unit to help, but Morningstar rejected it on the grounds that Morningstar believed that the humans were not mentally prepared to be in the same camp as the insect. But Quinn's suggestion made Morningstar change his mind. Quinn said that instead of going back to do ideological work and letting these human beings fully accept it, it is better to change subtly and let human understanding change from quantitative to qualitative. After a thousand choices, Morningstar finally chose Wangcai as the goodwill messenger of the alien insects, after all, this guy's current appearance is not lethal, at worst, it is just a strange-looking beast.
……
Returning to the heart of cooperation, Morningstar only brought prosperity with him, and Quinn did not return with him, but stayed with Abbathhar to further evolve. When Quinn chose to accompany Morningstar away, Abbather had said that Quinn's evolution was not complete. Touched by Morningstar's desperation at the time, Quinn followed Morningstar out of Itgleason, and now back here, Quinn chose to leave for a short time to complete his evolution in order to provide greater support to Morningstar. Quinn knew that the greatest help she could provide to Morningstar as a combatant was to be more powerful. Unlike the Morning Star, Quinn extracted a lot of information from Abbather's memories, and she was well aware of the terrifying existence of individuals in the depths of this starry sky. The Gondor he met on Haven was a joke, and he wasn't qualified to practice his skills. Even beside Morningstar, there is still an individual who terrifies Quinn, and that person is Tula. The appearance of kind eyebrows and kind eyes is just Tula's image in front of friends and juniors, and Quinn can see the huge energy contained in him, and now Quinn is not Tula's opponent. Luckily, though, Tula was on the side of the Morning Star.
Morningstar is riding the insect carrier class back to the heart of cooperation, this guy Morningstar has seen on Haven Star, it is the jellyfish-like creature that Gondor and Cayula were riding on at the time, Abbather said to Morningstar, this thing is called the king worm, and its position in the alien group is very critical, one is responsible for transporting ground combat units, and the other is to provide energy supply for the alien troops, so that they can continue to fight while away from the hive.
Under normal circumstances, the king worm is transported by hiding the worm in its own body and releasing it after reaching its destination. But after Morningstar reached out and tried it, he felt that he couldn't accept the feeling of being surrounded by strange body structures. So under the compulsion of Morning Star, Wangcai could only sit on the back of the king worm with Morning Star, blowing the sea breeze and basking in the sun, more than doubling the journey that could have been completed in a few hours.
By the time Morningstar returned to the Heart of Cooperation, it was already the afternoon of the next day, and the king worm as the car was almost defeated by the defense troops arranged by Leighton. If Nolyn Hill hadn't sensed his breath and stopped the defenders in time, Morningstar would have been lying in Anshidal's nutrient tank by now.
Morningstar was not injured, but the king worm was hit by bullets in two places. Morning Star could feel its sadness, like a six or seven-year-old child being bullied by his friends, full of grievances. Although the insects are a group that accepts unified command, this does not mean that they do not have individual thoughts, just like this aggrieved king worm, or Wangcai with their own preferences. After arranging for Anshidar to treat the king worm, this guy often appears in the air of the heart of cooperation, and I don't know if it is because of curiosity or habit, and its shadow has appeared in all the work sites near the camp. Morningstar named him "The Balloon" and announced to all humans on ItGleason that the Balloon was safe and that there was no need to be hostile. Then, an interesting scene occurs, whenever the balloon is close to the ground, someone always touches its hanging tentacles to get a closer look at this strange insect.
Wangcai also mixed well in the heart of cooperation, and successfully became friends with the woolly bear. Morningstar had seen it sit across from the furry bear many times, making sounds that had no resemblance at all, as if they were talking, but God knows what they were saying, and perhaps they didn't even know it themselves. Later, the creature became one with all the children in the camp, and often two or three children rode on its back, laughing and laughing. And Wangcai seems to enjoy this process and enjoys it.
……
Morning Star, who was sitting under the parasol, watched Wangcai and the woolly bear in the distance, and the children in a circle applauded, and the worry in their hearts was much lighter, and they said to themselves: "This first step of integration seems to be quite smooth." ”
