The expeditionary fleets of the various starfields of the empire have completed their expeditionary missions. The main orc forces in each star field have almost been defeated. But the war between humans and orcs is far from over.

The beast-level orcs have not yet been discovered by the Empire, and in the war of the Orc Empire in the Taiping Star Domain, there is no clue where those battle moons came from in the Empire.

A large number of Imperial fleets are still hunting orcs across the galaxy, and some Imperial forces have also launched attacks on the orc world to hone their soldiers.

In the decades since the War of the Orc Empire in the Taiping Star Domain, the formation of the Empire's Space Marine Legion has been completed, and the Empire's new astral army promotion path has been officially implemented.

At the same time, the Empire's arsenal has been working day and night over the years, refitting the Empire's Space Marines, Astral Forces, and Imperial Navy, as well as countless planetary defense units.

Each Planetary Defense Force warrior has its own Power Exoskeleton, and each Astral Force has its own Power Armor.

Not only the Empire's naval power, but also the Empire's Astral Army and planetary defense forces have also ushered in a wave of great strengthening.

Orcs? Don't say it, it's cute with bared teeth.

Of course, although on the frontal battlefield, the empire can beat the orcs indistinguishably (orcs: I can't tell the difference), but the extremely strong way of reproduction of orcs still causes great trouble to the empire.

In the early days of the Orc invasion of the Empire, a large number of Imperial worlds were invaded by the Orcs. Although the soldiers of the Empire were wiped out by these orcs after that, a large number of orc reproductive spores have long since fallen into the soil of these worlds.

Even after the end of the war, the various imperial worlds have long used flames to burn the corpses of orcs, but this still does not prevent the appearance of orcs on the planet again.

Every year there are many orcs in the world of the Empire.

Although these newborn orcs can soon be wiped out by the empire, this orc tribe that appears frequently at some time and somewhere has caused great trouble to the development of various imperial worlds.

The upper echelons of the empire deliberately left some orcs to create some sense of crisis among the people of the empire, but by no means in this way and in this way affecting the development of the empire's world.

It is more difficult to completely wipe out the orcs from a planet than to defeat them.

For those imperial worlds, humans can't orbit them, and they can't carry out extermination orders, so how can we completely wipe out those orcs.

This problem, which plagued the Empire, was soon solved by a number of scientists.

Some Imperial scientists believe that the Imperial can use the Empire's current knowledge of orc genes to develop a biological virus against orcs.

Some Imperial scientists believe that the Empire only needs to continue to study the genes of the orcs and find the "controller" created by its creator, which can not only solve the threat of the orcs, but also make the orc race available to humans.

There are also some Imperial scientists who feel that the most worthwhile thing to study about the orcs is their wonderful Waaagh stance, which connects all orcs and can be used as a starting point for the Empire.

And the regent of the empire, Sivir, said: I want them all!

These solutions coincided with many of the Empire's original scientific research plans, and the Empire would not give up on orc research even without the constant presence of orcs.

Now, in order to solve the troubles of the orcs, almost all the research institutes and scientific research departments of the empire have at least one scientific research mission related to the orcs.

And after a few decades, almost all of the megastructures that the empire had implemented were completed, and these megastructures gave the empire great help at this time, and it was no exception in scientific and technological research.

And the megastructure project, which is a wonder in the galaxy, is not built at once, and each megastructure is divided into several stages to build.

The Empire's scientific hub, for example, was divided into five phases of construction, each of which lasted about ten years.

The first is the construction of the foundation site for the science hub, which will serve as the basis for the construction of the future science hub.

The central core of the Science Hub will then be built, with a state-of-the-art singularity reactor installed to meet all the energy needs of the Science Hub. In the future, it will also be connected to a new research facility.

After completing the core, the next stage for the Empire's engineers is to add the next and most challenging piece of the facility, the four research wings.

They contain the vast majority of laboratories and provide housing for scientists. Can withstand extreme heat, extreme pressure fluctuations, and extraterrestrial pathogens. Branches are equipped with multiple security zones, which can be used to cordon off different areas if necessary.

Once the first module, the four R&D wings, is in place, researchers and staff will head to their living quarters.

The next and final part of the empire will be to extend the wings and add four labs to support the empire's most dangerous research. During this process, the Empire will take further security measures to ensure the safety of its staff.

Finally, a fully equipped and ready-to-use science hub was built.

But it doesn't end there, and the Empire can upgrade this science hub.

Through the Empire's use of "wet pieces" in the past, and the Empire's biotechnology and computer technology today, the Empire's scientists have invented a neural bank—an organic computer that stores and uses all the cognitive abilities of the brain that is uploaded to it.

However, there is a drawback to this: in order to function effectively, the uploaded brain must be removed from the subject's body and placed in a conductive fluid, and the subject must be disconnected from the matter.

This may be even worse than the environment of the dreadnought mechs of the Space Marines, but out of faith in the Emperor and the Holy Son, the volunteers can even circle Terra in a line.

But technology changes everything, and the Empire doesn't need to actually strip these people's brains from them.

Through the cloning technology empire, the brains of these volunteers can be cultivated from scratch in the cultivation chamber, and with the addition of consciousness upload and replication technology, these brains will have the knowledge and thinking ability of volunteers.

Without the need for any casualties, a neural bank that would greatly increase the speed of research in the scientific department was built.

The driving core of the Science Hub combines with the neural repertoire that houses the brains of the Empire's best scientists, which allows it to run at an accelerated pace.

After completing the final upgrade, the Empire's science hub was finally established.

The entire solar system is celebrating the opening of this great scientific hub. Along with its state-of-the-art scientific equipment and innovative technology, the Empire can attract the greatest human minds in the galaxy and the universe without resistance, which is exactly what Sivir wants.

This feat would be the beginning of a new Age of Enlightenment. The day when the Science Hub is built will be one of the greatest in the history of the human race.

The promise of breakthrough technology and the transcendence of bold ideas will await.

The analysis of orc genes, the study of Waaagh's position, the reverse engineering of orc portals, and a series ......of scientific research tasks extremely important to the Empire are being overcome by countless Imperial scientists.

The road is long, I will go up and down and seek. Can the endless mysteries of the universe be controlled by us in the end?

It's not clear, but the future will be ours.

A large number of research tasks require a lot of computing power, and the Empire's planetary computing complex has long been built to help the Empire's research missions.

As a planet-sized computer, this huge computer seeps deep into the planet's mantle, and the entire crust and mantle of the planet are replaced by layers of huge processors with unimaginable processing power.

All areas of the planet except housing have been replaced by unique, research-focused areas. The population living on its surface is engaged in research with terrifying efficiency and speed.

However, even if the Planetary Computing Complex could provide such a huge amount of computing power to the Empire, it would not be able to run all the stars.

In addition to the science hub, part of the computing power of the planetary computing body is also provided to the sentinel array and the strategic command center.

The light of the stars dimmed, the darkness of the void vanished, and only after we learned to exceed the speed of light did we know that the light revealed only a tip of the truth.

The appearance of the Sentinel Array will put an end to the darkness of humanity, and the Sentinel Array built by the Empire in the solar system will become a solid Hundred-Eyed Giant, and our eyes will be glued to every star.

As the project progresses, the Sentinel Array will gradually expand the range of sensors, eventually encompassing the entire galaxy.

Just like the Science Hub, after the foundation site was built, the Sentinel Array was the key to the entire project, the Sentinel Center.

Once the Sentinel Center is established, it can be put into use as a state-of-the-art listening post for the Empire with dedicated astronomers and tactical analysts.

The Sentinel Array Center itself represents the highest level of technology currently available in the Empire, combining a listening post and a space telescope into one.

But this is only the first milestone in this great project.

The next step for the Empire is to install a Sentinel Spire in the center of the Sentinel Array, with oscillating fins mounted along the central spire to distinguish faint signals from the ubiquitous background radiation.

This will allow the Sentinel Array to further expand its detection range.

Next up was the Sentinel Antenna, a massive static antenna that increased the Sentinel Array's detection range to an unprecedented level.

Once the full Sentinel Array is built, it will be able to extend its detection range to the entire galaxy, and we will now have almost complete control over the movements of all fleets across the galaxy. There is no doubt about how important this technology is to the Empire.

The technology encased in a ring around the Sentinel Array is guarded to prevent leaks. Sivir even sent a group of forbidden troops to protect the Sentinel Array.

The appearance of the Sentinel Array will be of great help to the Empire's future wars, and not only in terms of war, but it will also help Sivir to better control the Empire and the army.

However, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Troops by the Sentinel Array is not yet obvious, and the giant structure that has significantly increased the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Forces is undoubtedly the newly built strategic command center in the solar system.

After completion, the strategic command center can synchronize the network of star bases across the country and improve the defense and attack capabilities of the base.

The first to be built was the outer structure of the Strategic Command Center, whose armored hull would protect our Corps High Command, where the people could safely plan and direct military operations.

No matter how clever the order is, whether it can be accurately conveyed to the front-line generals is the most important thing.

That's why engineers have added powerful communications array modules to strategic command centers, allowing strategists to issue unjamperable and invulnerable commands to fleets across the universe.

With the addition of a powerful communications array to the Strategic Command Center, Imperial ships can receive strategic orders from the Empire wherever they are.

These state-of-the-art communication arrays are capable of overcoming all interference, and their quantum-entangled signals are completely undecipherable.

The last additional part of the strategic command center was a number of detached "enemy army" mock fortresses.

These fortresses are more or less miniature versions of strategic command centers and operate entirely independently.

Elite commanders and their men are able to immerse themselves in the culture and traditions of their enemies, and by learning their art, they can better understand and simulate their military thinking.

When fully immersed, they will engage in virtual warfare with the staff of the strategic command center, allowing us to simulate any possible conflict, and learning all the details from both sides, so that we can have better tactics than the enemy in real combat.

With the addition of the hostile force simulation module, the Strategic Command Center has further strengthened its position as the core of national defense security and military planning.

Today, the construction of a fully armed strategic command center has been completed. At present, the command elite of our army has been assembled in it, and it is so invincible. Because they are both safe and centralized, they can wholeheartedly serve the plan of how best to capture the orcs.

After the completion of the strategic command center, even if the military strength of the empire at this time was a hundred or a thousand times greater than that of the Great Expedition, Sivir could perfectly control it.

In the past, due to communication problems, the emperor lacked skills, and he also needed the genetic prototype to fight the world for him. But at this time, Sivir can sit firmly in Terra, control and command any Imperial soldier in the galaxy.

The emergence of these megastructures, coupled with the rapid development of various planets, has led to an increasing demand for energy in the Empire.

And the Dyson sphere of the empire was purpose-built to solve this problem.

Even if the frame alone is placed, the sheer size of the project is obvious.

Although not fully completed, with the installation of advanced solar collectors and the burning of the sun in slender cages, the Empire began to reap the benefits of the Dyson sphere located in the solar system.

As construction continues, so does the Empire's energy income.

Eventually, with the completion of the 25% coverage of the Dyson sphere, the Empire was able to obtain more huge amounts of energy from the sun, the "mother of energy" of mankind.
