Chapter 317: Two or Three Things in the Empire

The huge Astral Gate City is the capital of the Astral Empire, but this is no longer a small island with a radius of less than tens of kilometers, and the current Astral Gate City has become a huge artificial continent on the sea under several expansions! That's right, an artificial continent, not an artificial island! This is a huge artificial continent with a radius of nearly 2,000 kilometers, the entire continent is paved with special alloys, and there is a huge orbital elevator in the center of this artificial continent, which can transport a large number of resources to geosynchronous orbit in a short period of time, and replenish the fleet stationed on the geosynchronous orbit space station. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and along the rail elevator, the entire five-story suspended city is connected by the intricate structure and the rail elevator, like a huge world tree made of metal. These levitations, like the leaves of a tree, are suspended in the sky above the Astral Gate City, forming an extremely complex overhead city group, which looks magnificent from the outside. With this three-dimensional structure, the city can accommodate up to 80 million people from all over the world, and can station a large number of fleets!

And this is only the ground part of the Astral Gate, five thousand meters above the city of the Astral Gate, there is a floating island full of green trees and flowers that magically floats above the Astral Gate!

And now Zhang Fan and the others have come to this floating island!

Seeing this huge floating island with a radius of at least 100 kilometers, Zhang Fan was shocked. Even Calensyet, who came with her, was taken aback! It is not difficult to make an object float under the gravitational pull of the planet, anti-gravity technology can do it, but no matter what kind of technology it is, it consumes energy, even if the efficiency of anti-gravity technology is very high, but it is not easy to suspend such a huge island at an altitude of five thousand meters and float for a long time! Looking at the lush flowers and plants around it, this island can't have just been created, but has been floating here for at least more than ten years! The amount of energy required for such a long period of time is simply astronomical! And is it necessary to levitate an island in mid-air for the sake of a face-saving project? At least in Zhang Fan's impression, Zero is not the kind of person who likes to waste!

Seeing that Zhang Fan and Karen were both looking at themselves suspiciously, he explained without opening his mouth; "This island doesn't rely on anti-gravity technology to float, it's basically a coincidence that the Astral Legion has found a magical ore in a special world, and we rely on this special ore to make this island float!" 、

After Zero's detailed explanation, Zhang Fan and Karen finally understood the ins and outs.

This island does not rely on anti-gravity technology to float in mid-air at all, if it is anti-gravity technology, the energy required to lift such a huge island of billions of tons into the sky is probably astronomical! However, while conquering a world in the Age of Steam, the Astral Legions stumbled upon a special technology in the region known as the Flying Stone, which they have developed a series of unique tech trees. Although the race that developed this technology has been extinct, in the face of Zero's powerful analytical ability, this technology developed by relying on flying stones has been sorted out, and then the Astral Legion has successfully controlled this world and mined this ore in large quantities to make flying stones. The scientists of the Astral Legion have discovered that on some permanent floating facilities, as long as a flying stone of sufficient size is installed, the floating facility can be permanently floated in the air! Based on this discovery, Zero deliberately ordered the engineering department to create a super-large flying stone according to the technology of that world, and then carved a special control pattern to create a flying stone crystal that can have the ability to float. Then load this flying stone on this island! This flying stone crystal easily lifted this incredibly heavy island into the sky, and it didn't require any extra energy to sustain it for a long time. This island, which floats entirely in the sky, has become the private domain of the Astral Legion, separated from the Astral Gate City on the ground, making it easier to manage. So Zero officially moved all the administrative organs and relevant departments of the army of the entire empire to this floating island, and over time, this floating island became known as the imperial palace and sky city!

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Time flies like flowing water. It's been almost three months since Zhang Fan returned to the Overworld. During this time, in addition to making up for his lost knowledge, Zhang Fan met with representatives of various worlds and expressed condolences. There's no way who wants him to disappear for thirty years, and everyone only knows that there is a dimensional queen over the years, and they don't know who the other vacant throne is for? It wasn't until Zhang Fan's return that everyone knew that this ordinary-looking guy was actually the huge Emperor of the Astral Empire!

Although some people don't think so, but under the deterrence of Dimension Queen Zero, no fool dares to jump out and have any doubts about His Majesty the Emperor Zhang Fan!

But obviously, sitting on the emperor's throne, Zhang Fan always felt that this ass was not very comfortable!

Looking at Zero sitting next to him, Zhang Fan couldn't help asking: "Zero, why do you want to make an imperial system, the position of emperor is not so easy to do, there are too many responsibilities, it is very troublesome!" ”

The two of them were seated in the huge council hall at this time, and at the front of the council hall were two huge thrones, the golden one was Zhang Fan's throne, and the silver one was zero's throne. But obviously, sitting in this tall throne, Zhang Fan felt quite awkward!

"Dictatorship is the most efficient, so I chose the imperial system! Or do you have a better opinion? Zero turned his head and asked curiously! For zero, efficiency is ranked first, and when Zhang Fan is no longer there, it is naturally efficiency first. But Zhang Fan is back, so naturally Zhang Fan's opinion must be the first! After all, for Zero, this world, whether it is the Astral Empire or the Astral Legion, is not as important as its own contractor!

Seeing Zero's casual answer, Zhang Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "If you let the subjects know that their great queen is completely a ruling system set by patting their heads, they will probably cry bitterly!"

But no matter what, I have returned to my own world after all, so let myself enjoy this rare time home! As for the management of the empire, let's leave it to Zero! I always feel that the emperor of the empire does something weird! Or the fleet admiral is the most comfortable! Completely ignoring the eyes of the high-ranking officials below, Zhang Fan went directly out of the world!
