Chapter 396: The Second Raid

A few hours later, the robots that had already surrendered and the Empire's troops boarded the evacuated transport ship and took off.

Li Mingze and Eva also came to the flagship of the empire docked in the port, and Tianyi, who had been waiting for a long time, took over Eva's core from Li Mingze.

Next, Skywing will rewrite Eva's core into the code, placing it under the control of Li Mingze and Skywing. The others have not changed much, so that Li Mingze has added another right-hand man, and Tianyi and Eva will become Li Mingze's veritable right-hand men.

More than twenty hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the Imperial fleet had left the surroundings of the metal planet,

At this time, the lights on the entire metal planet suddenly dimmed, and the originally shining metal planet turned into a large silver-black metal ball.

Then the surface of the metal planet began to tremble, and pieces of armor began to crumble under the ground.

The entire metal planet seemed to be held tightly by an invisible giant hand, and began to shrink continuously.

As the hours passed, the entire metal planet began to glow a dazzling red light from the violent squeezing and grinding against each other.

At this time, the volume of the metal planet has shrunk to one-third of its original size, and it continues to shrink.

"What do you think?" Li Mingze turned his head to Eva, who had finished rewriting beside him, and asked.

"Returning to the Master, everything is doomed to destruction from the day it is born." Eva looked indifferently at the shrinking metal planet, and the expression on her face did not fluctuate at all.

"Yes, but my empire will be immortal." Li Mingze continued to look at the shrinking metal planet not far away and said softly.

Hours passed, and the entire metal planet was only one-fifth the size of its original size, and the massive heat released by the violent contraction of the outer shell melted the entire planet's surface into liquid.

The metal planet, which had become a "lava planet", completely ceased its activities, and only hung in the starry sky constantly releasing warm red light.

"Order the construction ships on the front line to give me a mine on this metal planet, with the metal materials provided by this planet, our speed of obtaining resources will be greatly increased." Li Mingze turned his back and left the bridge.

The three fleets of the Empire began to enter hyperspace and fly in the direction of the Empire's front line.

After successfully tackling the prophesied greatest threat to the mechanical civilization, the Sith Empire is back on track.

Countless Tiger Shark-class and alien ships began to move to the Empire's new front line, where Eva was originally located, where the Empire would continue to refine its defenses.

Harnessing the vast resources of the metal planetary debris, the Empire has begun to build in this star system in response to the possible future Davis Expansion Council.

After Eva was co-opted by Li Mingze, the remaining robots were put back into use, and the Empire's mining capacity began to surge.

However, it is a pity that the printing construction technology is a special technology unique to the Empire, although it has annexed the mechanical civilization, but the construction efficiency of the Empire has not improved, but there are many more engineering ships that can build mechanical warships.

Eva's mechanical battleship has been upgraded with Imperial technology, adding a new shield system and a hyperspace system.

The weapon system has also been upgraded, with the Empire's mass projection cannon replacing the mechanical civilization's electromagnetic railgun.

The overhauled Mecha Battleship is comparable to that of the Tiger Shark-class battleship, and the production line will not take up the Empire's existing warship production line.

………………

When the empire was back on track, Grand Master Liu Rushun of the Pisces Pirate Regiment far away in the asteroid sea was not idle.

As a man who wants to become a pirate king, Liu Rushun decides that after so long of rectification, it is time to set off and continue plundering.

In the past few months, he has not only completed the transformation of three large transport ships, eight medium transport ships, and five small transport ships.

He also built several huge space farms in the asteroid sea where the Pisces Ark was hiding, filled with looted soil.

Due to environmental constraints, each space farm is built by hollowing out an asteroid.

Since the people on the Pisces Ark were all part of the pirate group engaged in combat and logistics, of course the task of growing food could not be left to the members of the great pirate group.

Then the captive personnel will become the best candidates for the plantation personnel in the future.

Therefore, Liu Rushun set the main direction for the next raid not only for ships and goods, but also for people.

After hours of preparation, two Imperial cruisers, six Imperial destroyers, three large transport-converted drone carriers, and eight medium-sized transport-converted armed destroyers slowly lifted off from the harbor that stretched out from the Ark.

When the construction drone dragged away the many asteroids blocking the pirate fleet, the empty starry sky was revealed.

As the fleet slowly accelerated, it soon left the gravity well of the asteroid sea, and the small fleet of nineteen ships jumped into hyperspace and disappeared.

In the passage between two star systems a few light-years away, a team of three medium-sized passenger ships is flying at sub-light speeds.

At this time, the passenger ship was full of laughter and laughter, and the people on the passenger ship chatted or danced softly to the beautiful music.

"Distinguished passengers, welcome to participate in the 10-day tour of Xiantan Star held by Li'an Health Products."

"After two more days of flight, we will arrive at the destination of this time, Xiantan Star."

"As a well-known tourist destination, Xiantanxing's suspended mountains attract tourists from several surrounding countries."

"In order to celebrate the official launch of the spaceship, the next thing is our carnival time, let's eat, drink and dance to our heart's content!" As the captain's voice fell, the people in the corridors and halls of the passenger ship laughed and raised their wine glasses.

In the distance, pale yellow nebulae and stars shone on the red wine in their hands, giving off an alluring glow.

Just as everyone was immersed in this joyful atmosphere, the starry sky not far from the fleet suddenly began to flicker with electric light.

"Captain, there is some high-energy reaction directly in front of us, it may be some special natural phenomenon, do we brake?" A crew member asked the captain as he looked at the flashing red exclamation mark on the screen.

"Hey, slow down." The captain reluctantly gave the order.

You must know that the time and energy required by these ships to enter the sub-light state every time they enter the sub-light state is amazing, and each emergency braking not only means that a lot of time is wasted, but also means that more energy will be consumed, and the corresponding captain's income from this flight will also dive wildly.

However, for the safety of the ship, this kind of braking is necessary, and any small accident at sub-light speed can be fatal for the ship!
