In 3882, an unmanned spacecraft discovered a new region behind a black hole 600 light-years away in the Misty Trail, named the Frost Nebula, the second large-scale antimatter cloud ever discovered by humans, and the first was destroyed by humans.

With the purpose of antimatter being of great research value, allowing fleets in the triangulum system to be equipped with a small number of terrifying antimatter cannons, and providing an astonishing trade value, the second large-scale area after the Misty Path has been identified.

Black Lotus is the administrator of the Triangular Galaxy, and like her sister White Lotus, she was unfortunately driven by her master to this shabby place where birds don't poop and chickens don't lay eggs, of course, in her eyes, no matter how the Milky Way is hit, it will always be the home of mankind, and it will always be her favorite place.

The development of the frost nebula is bound to rely on unmanned units, so Black Lotus is undoubtedly an excellent person to be responsible, the surrounding area is infinitely close to absolute zero, even colder than the outer universe, causing a large area of stardust matter to condense into a frost flower that is not usually seen, frost clouds, it looks beautiful, but the antimatter that can be deprived of kinetic energy will not move much, if the spacecraft takes the initiative to collide with it, it will still die very miserably, Black Lotus has to control an asteroid-like unmanned spacecraft to sail carefully, first by taking the initiative to avoid it, After directly locating to the position, it appears in the core area of the nebula.

Starships are essentially starry cities, cities equipped with active jump devices, and the speed is always no more than 10 times the speed of light, but much larger.

Each starry sky city covers an area of more than 100 square kilometers and is more than 15 kilometers long, which is equivalent to a towering mountain range, which can accommodate 10 million people, as well as industrial areas, service areas and other facilities.

Those who are qualified to join the Frost Nebula Pioneer are definitely not ordinary people, and the antimatter cloud brings great danger, so the last one selected is a famous Pioneer, who often has a life level above Level I, and the survival rate is relatively high.

Starry Sky Cities will be the only stronghold of humanity in the Frost Nebula, and there will be few more of them, as the Frost Nebula is not a habitable place, but a place of death.

As the starry sky city arrived at the designated location, they successively drilled out of the high-dimensional world and anchored near the antimatter asteroid, activating the protective force field to prevent the small-scale antimatter moving nearby from eroding the city's body.

The unmanned spacecraft is separated from the city, and the modified unmanned spacecraft is not only able to mine the antimatter cloud, but also not afraid of the annihilation of antimatter, the biggest weakness is that the voyage is not far, and if there is an antimatter asteroid next to it, or even a dwarf planet, there is no need to think about this problem at all.

More slender and petite unmanned spaceships are heading towards other areas of the Nebula with unmanned units, looking for more mineral deposits at an extremely slow speed, providing the possibility of sustainable mining and maintaining the prosperity of the Frost Nebula.

There is a pioneer behind these things, so Heilian doesn't have to worry about what billions of unmanned units have to do, just leave it to the pioneer to worry about herself, she feels that there is nothing bad about it, she is responsible for making full use of her advantages and coordinating everything.

Antimatter is mined back and processed directly in the Star City, antimatter is a general term, which actually includes many possibilities from anti-elementary particles, anti-subatoms, anti-atoms, and even anti-molecules and anti-life.

The pioneers are looking forward to it, think about this is a material that is hundreds of millions of times more expensive than gold, even if the technology is highly developed today, the annual output of antimatter in various laboratories and special factories does not exceed 1 kilogram, and I heard that the amount brought back this time is more than 5 kilograms, how exciting it should be, and what benefits it will bring.

They celebrate in the service area of the Starry Sky City, but the pioneers are often not sparing to spend money on happiness; Merchants heard that the production of antimatter would increase by 100 times in the next year, and they were already thinking about how to buy and sell, and they were contacting their partners everywhere to negotiate.

The basic uses of antimatter include laboratory research, and this time it can make antimatter less valuable, so that more research institutes can afford to use antimatter; There are also ace troops that arm several major fleets of the East Galaxy Company, while the local troops and ordinary troops will definitely not be able to take their turns.

In addition, there will be things like industrial manufacturing, which will not become mainstream for at least a few centuries, let alone be promoted, so don't think too much.

One smallest antimatter asteroid with a diameter of 10 kilometers is enough to mine for 5 years, so Star City will not move at will, and will slowly wait for the mining to be completed before considering moving to a new deposit.

After several days of precision machining, the antimatter is refined and separated, and after processing, it is even smaller, even if you add the container that holds it, it does not exceed a small room of several tens of square meters.

Then there are the ships cruising near the starry sky city, they will be responsible for receiving the cargo, and the guards are all veteran pioneers of level II or above, enough to carry the kind in front of the ace troops for a while.

Even if it is a surprise attack by a star thief or an unknown legion, there is no way to easily snatch the spaceship, and the strict discipline makes it possible for no human accidents during the preservation and transportation of antimatter, and it is not afraid of cosmic disasters and effectively guarantees safety.

The heavily armed spacecraft passed through the high-dimensional world, passing through the black hole to the Frost Nebula, 1,500 light-years away, where there is a planet with a strong industrial base that has been developed for many years, where antimatter will be deeply processed and redistributed.

Antimatter is expensive, 1 gram of antimatter can feed the lives of 100,000 people, so it is not only the participation of the starry sky cities inside the Frost Nebula, but also the related industrial chain throughout the Triangulum galaxy.

Antimatter shells are processed from factories; Second-level merchants secretly buy antimatter and transport it to more distant planets, or even galaxies, to earn multiple, dozens of times the reward; The Institute continues to analyze the physicochemical properties of antimatter, and even uses it as a reaction catalyst.

In addition, the Misty Road has been driven to make great progress, and the Illusory Road opened up by the No. 2 Immigrant Fleet has also enjoyed the benefits, building a spectacular galaxy-level industrial chain.

However, the construction of the Frost Nebula is not so easy to end, and it is very important to prevent poachers, so that a large amount of antimatter will be lost and enter the underground market, which may threaten the local security of the East Galaxy Company, and will also lose the interests of the original company. Organically managing the aggregation of antimatter and ensuring sustainable extraction requires time and manpower to do so. (To be continued.) )
