Ten years later....

A barren star system located a hundred light-years away from the star system, the capital of the Sith Empire.

This star system is located in the heart of the empire itself, but there are no inhabited colonies of the empire in the surrounding star system, and there are several large military fortresses of the empire around it.

This makes this star system the ideal location for the construction of the Dyson sphere, which is unlikely to cause much damage to the empire in the event of any accident with the Dyson sphere project, and at the same time provides good protection for the surrounding military facilities.

Coupled with the fact that there are no living planets in this star system, even if the light of the stars is obscured, it will not cause devastating damage to the living planets.

As a result, the Empire began building facilities in this star system eleven years ago.

After ten years of non-stop construction, the main skeleton of the Dyson sphere was finally completed, and thanks to the addition of a large number of advanced scientific committee technologies, the construction period was greatly advanced.

Five huge metal rings entrapped the entire blue star, and in order to reduce the difficulty of construction, the star was specially selected to be one-eighth the size of the sun, but one-third of the mass.

Between the two adjacent metal rings, a large mesh of bio-material ropes can already be seen.

Although this grid may seem large, it actually occupies only one-sixteenth of the star's surface area.

This one-sixteenth of the area is the largest area that the empire can currently make, and unlike the simple structure of large frameworks, the cost of special algae that can absorb the light and heat of the stars and convert them into energy that can be used by the empire is also one of the reasons that restrict the construction of the Dyson sphere. In addition, there is the issue of facilities to extract the energy converted by these algae and connect it to the Imperial Energy Network.

Although the Supreme Scientific Council of Mankind has more advanced energy-extraction technology in its arsenal, the cruel reality in front of Li Mingze is that they have no resources to build a more advanced Dyson sphere.

The current Scientific Council is no longer the one that dominated the galaxy at its peak, and hundreds of thousands of years of slumber have consumed a lot of their vitality.

Therefore, Li Mingze can only choose to build the backward Dyson ball first, providing a lot of energy for his next plan, presumably once that plan is completed, the empire will no longer lack resources!

Li Mingze, Tianyi and others came to the star system where the Dyson sphere is located early, waiting for the completion of the first part of the Dyson sphere.

"Your Majesty, do you want to start using the first part of the Dyson sphere?" A scientist walked up to Li Mingze and asked respectfully.

"Let's get started, this will be the first step for our Sith Empire to stand on top of the universe!" A gleam flashed in Li Mingze's eyes.

After getting Li Mingze's reply, the scientist reached out and slid twice on the personal terminal, and suddenly there was a change on the Dyson sphere in the distance!

As hundreds of thousands of transport ships carrying nutrient solution docked the cargo compartment to the interface of the Dyson sphere skeleton, countless nutrient solutions began to flow down the pipes into the huge nutrient troughs built on the skeleton.

If you zoom in on the cells of these algae, you can see that the cells of these algae begin to divide wildly after the nutrient flow, one becomes two, two becomes four, and four becomes eight.

In just a few minutes, the wildly split algae stretched out along a vast web of biological material.

Thanks to the advanced biotechnology that the Empire has acquired from the Corruptor civilization, the direction, extent, and number of this crazy growth are controllable, and how they grow has long been written into their genes.

These algae will grow according to the goals set in the genes until they completely cover this huge grid area.

After five days, the algae had finally finished growing, and by this time there was already an area on the Dyson sphere covered with black algae, and there was not a single ray of light coming through it.

From a distance, the star looks like a piece of cake that has been cut off, and it is no longer complete.

Once the growth is complete, the black "Dyson algae" begins to work.

Their black appearance makes them extremely absorbable of light, and the light and heat produced by the star are absorbed by these algae and transmitted through a network of internal meridians into a huge bulge on the skeleton of the Dyson sphere.

At this time, the empire's robots began to insert energy transmission pipes into the bulge, and a stream of golden energy liquid flowed out of the bulge, and the energy liquid produced by compressing these energies to a certain extent was the final product of this Dyson ball.

They will become members of the Empire's energy network through the transformer.

"Your Majesty, the first phase of the construction of the Dyson sphere has been a complete success! In the future, our empire will be able to carry out various scientific experiments with a large amount of spare energy! The scientist next to Li Mingze said excitedly.

"How long will it take for the remaining fifteen phases to be fully completed?" Li Mingze frowned and asked, If a stage takes ten years, then by the time this Dyson ball is completed, maybe the Zerg will have already killed his hometown.

"Because we had no experience to draw on, everything was a process of exploration, which is why the first phase was so slow. Now that we have enough experience, it will only take four years for each subsequent phase. The scientist patted his chest and said.

"Very good, then I'll wait for your good news, at present, I have other uses for the energy generated by the Dyson ball, and other scientific research departments will wait until the second part is completed to relax the energy use restrictions." Li Mingze waved his hand and walked out of the room.

As he disconnected his consciousness from the star system where the Dyson sphere was located, Li Mingze once again awakened in another barren star system near the borders of the Empire.

This galaxy is very peculiar, with a star half the size of the Earth and a star half the size of the Sun.

And on this planet, which is only half the size and mass of the Earth, a giant hemispherical structure with a height of 10,000 meters is clasped on an endless plain.

The hemispherical structure is pure silver throughout, with a smooth surface that refracts all light that hits its surface.

If you think this is an ordinary building, you are very wrong, this building has a thickness of 500 meters on the outer armor alone!

Layers of shells of different alloys and materials are held together to isolate the building from the outside world.
