After this, Evan spent a lot of time repairing the details of the Silent City.

Even he can't guarantee that the blueprints he made in a short period of time will be perfect, so revisions are inevitable.

As a result, this change took another half a month, and the worse situation was that when he completely completed the design drawings, he suddenly remembered that he had no labor in his hands.

Although the number of mechanical sappers is large, most of them are carrying out the five-year plan, and the rest of them are still organized by him into exploration teams, which are looking for Podil ore throughout the star system. Now he has 30,000 mechanical sappers in his spare hands, which is enough to build a military fortress, and it is simply not enough to meet the needs of building a silent city.

Therefore, the Father, who has just rested for a few days, has to take on the heavy responsibility of strengthening the race again.

......

And just when Evan was working tirelessly to make mechanical life in order to replenish his labor force, he had no time to take care of anything else. A subversive movement against the Menes Empire is quietly brewing in the undersea city of Moder on the El Star.

The El Star, located in the Near Eastern Star Field, has the reputation of "Rainbow Star" and was once the friendliest ally of the Kashny Federation. However, after the rise of Norma, the El Star, which had lost its use value, was quickly abandoned by the Federation and directly reduced to a second-rate country.

However, in recent times, the long-dormant Ayr Star has regained its second spring - in the face of the strong rise of Hyperion, the Ayr Star has once again been cared for by the Kashni people and has become a glorious military ally of the Federation.

As one of the three kingdoms that held the Far Eastern defense line and counterbalanced the eastward expansion of Haiboxing, the Ayr Star, along with the Eaton Star and the Noruspar Star, was contemptuously called the Three Dogs by the Menes.

Unlike Eton, which was crushed by the Federation as a colony, Ayr Star is the most powerful of the 'Three Dogs' because it has long served as a military ally of the Federation and is a tax haven for the wealthy of the Federation.

He was also the most active in curbing the eastward expansion of Hyperion - because the Federalists promised them that if the Menes Empire collapsed, all their wealth and resources would be their own.

Everything that the Menes Empire now has is an irresistible temptation for the Els.

Underwater city, Moder.

Located in the middle of the Western Ocean, the city was an early colony built by the Federals for the mining of minerals from the seabed, which was repaired by the Colony Governor after the minerals were depleted and sold to the Natives of the Elstar at a high price. The aborigines expanded on the basis of the colony again, and only then did they have the current underwater city.

Thousands of meters deep in the western ocean, the sparkling blue barrier repels the seawater, supporting a dry and clean underwater city;

The town hall of Moder is a tall spire-like palace that reaches out to the sea at its highest point, with rolling promenades on either side that stretch as far as the eye can see, and the road leading to the entrance is a high platform with a stone staircase that descends from below.

In the meeting room of the town hall, bright light slanted down from the radial skylight, and ice particles floated in the space.

In the frost mist was an ice-carved round table and five black high-backed chairs, each with a hologram sitting upright. These holograms have been specially treated to look like a white mist, flickering and flickering, as if they can melt into the surrounding frost and fog at any time.

Their identities are known only to those who participated in the meeting, so even if they are wiretapped, they can hide the true identities of the meeting participants.

One by one, one by one

"According to the news from the intelligence network, the king of the Hyperion Star, that immortal-level lifeform, has not appeared in public for more than a hundred days. At this moment, a subdued voice said slowly:

"He's probably going into self-sealing and this could be an opportunity for us. ”

The hologram that was speaking was clearly more authoritative than the others—not only was his chair wider, but when he spoke, the other images could only listen respectfully.

"The Menes Empire not only has the precious Divine Source Machine, but also digests the wealth and technology of the Norma Republic, which are all priceless treasures to us. The lead speaker carefully recalled:

"Although the Federation has promised us a lot of benefits, they are definitely not willing to give it to us except for the Divine Source Machine. Because of this, we must use our current advantage to seize a Divine Source Machine for the El Star before the Federation crushes the Menes Empire!"

"The Divine Source Machine is in the hands of that Immortal King, but we are sure that we cannot act rashly until he dies. ”

One of the holograms on the right started to speak, but stopped in the middle of the sentence - the lead speaker waved his hand slightly.

According to the information I have gathered, there are three Divine Source Machines in the Menes Empire: one in the hands of the Immortal King, one in the hands of Lord Bakar's sister, and one in the hands of the Forbidden Army Sect Leader of the Menes Empire. We can't move the Immortal King and the Dragon Princess's Divine Source Machine, but the Forbidden Army Sect Leader ......"

The chief speaker paused, then smiled contemptuously: "He is not even at the inheritance level, why does he hold a treasure like the Divine Source Machine!?"

"What do you mean, Mayor...... Let's take action now and take the Divine Source Machine from him?" asked the new image at the end of the left.

"You're right. ”

The chief speaker nodded: "But I want more than this level, I want to try to disrupt the political situation of Menes while seizing the Divine Source Machine......! Black knight, you are the best at fanning the flames and arousing public opinion, and I will leave it to you!"

"Yes!"

The second hologram on the right bows its head respectfully.

"As for the three of you, 'Thunder Dragon', 'Reef' and 'Snake Kiss', let's go with me! Let's go meet the sect leader who holds the Divine Source Machine for a while, and see if he has the qualifications to occupy the treasure!"

The speaker said in a firm tone, and even though there was only an image of nothingness in front of them, the other four could still feel the attachment from each other.

"Don't worry, my friends! Even if the Immortal King doesn't choose to seal himself, he can't help us. Behind us stands the mighty Kashni Federation, and harming us is tantamount to declaring war on the Federation!"

As the chief spokesperson's impassioned voice fell, the meeting ended.

One by one, the holograms vanished into the frost and mist, the light cast by the skylight faded, darkness poured into the room, and everything fell silent again.

However, the vast undercurrent hidden in the star of El still flows tirelessly—the rise of Menes has rejuvenated the long-dormant planet and fostered twisted ambitions.
