In both past and present lives, the desire for the starry sky has long been deeply rooted in Nesta's bone marrow;

In a previous life, it was a very romantic imagination;

In this life, this imagination has not only been realized, but also seems to have a different meaning with its own massive demand for material things.

Therefore, after learning the specific situation before, he immediately showed full excitement, and specially divided seven projection bodies to descend along the path of faith;

And after a journey of thoughts that cannot be described in words, he reached the seven destinations he had set in less than the blink of an eye......

That is, four quasar fortresses that have slowed down and are carrying out the dual tasks of a lookout and a construction station, and three Treks who are still moving forward in the infinite emptiness, and he has been able to see the infinite grandeur of the distant starry sky.....

The closest extrasolar star system to the Sun is also the chaotic three-star system mentioned earlier, in which a total of three stars in the prime of life (Proxima 1-1, Proxima 1-2, and Proxima 1-3) are standing near and far away from each other;

I don't know if it's because these three big guys ate up all the matter during the growth period, or because their chaotic orbits are at work, but in short, there is not a single large or small planet in the star system they are composed of at this time, only a cloud of captured interstellar dust at the gravitational boundary, which is rising and falling like waves in relatively distant deep space.

In addition, a binary star system consisting of two stars (2-1 and 2-2) located 0.35 light-years apart from each other is the second closest outer star system to the parent star system.

Among them, one is a mid-stage main-sequence star, and the other is a late-stage main-sequence star that is about to become a giant, which has given birth to or captured as many as 23 large and small planets that occasionally visit each other, in addition to a large outer ring belt composed of millions of asteroids, comets, and moons, and the outermost interstellar dust cloud that is much larger than the parent star system is bound;

On the whole, this is a star system with abundant resources and easy to mine, even if each of them has a main-sequence star that is about to become giant, but this "fast" is also in terms of the lifetime of the star, in fact, it will still be a very long time span, and it will not affect the development actions that the Republic may carry out in the future.

Although no quasar spacecraft accidentally arrived in the third-closest star system, a multi-directional gravitational survey confirmed a relatively detailed situation, with a tiny star (Proxima 3-1) with a mass of 0.75 times the Fairy Sun, dragging its only two presumably rock-based planetary bodies dancing in its orbit around the rod's spiral core.

The fourth closest star system has a single red giant (Proxima 4-1) that has entered its middle and late years, which has engulfed the two nearest rock-based planets (Proxima 4-1-1, 4-1-2......), and the remaining three planets on its periphery are subjected to violent heat baths all day long.

The fifth closest is another set of binary star systems, but the eldest brother is dead, and its wreckage has turned into a neutron star (Proxima 5-1) that spins at high speed and releases strong radiation from two stages, while the younger brother's body and energy (Proxima 5-2) are constantly absorbed into disks by the eldest brother, and the starry sky around them is empty with nothing, except for some dust that looks like the shock wave of an explosion floating around the far periphery.

Nesta's projection descends into the Trek spaceship, and discovers that this is not the dead silence and loneliness he had imagined...

Each of these seven ships born in the same batch has a diameter of 500 kilometers, and its interior is already filled with hundreds of thousands of phantoms belonging to the elves;

Most of them are projections of scholars descending here, and the few are tourists like Nesta at the moment;

The former have always been taking advantage of the stable faith corridor of the spaceship to carry out experiments or construction tasks from extremely long distances, while the latter are simply to travel or watch the lively elves, or the elves who have been taken by the teacher to visit;

All in all, almost every spaceship is very lively, and it is not far from home at all

The sense of loneliness exists.

In addition, the spaceship located in the resource-rich area has put a lot of "base vehicles" into the system, and established production bases on the surface of the rock-based star, but because the stability of the tunnel must use special alloy wood building materials containing flesh and blood, most of these bases can only be built under the remote control of the spaceship, which is relatively inefficient, and cannot lower the projection to pry the Imaginary Realm spellcasting resources;

These buildings were all built on site, and instead of decreasing the total amount of matter of the quasar itself, it collected a lot of precious heavy elements like a miser, hoping to bring them back one day.....

In addition, the quasar fortress was divided into small halves, and a general surface base was established in one of them, and this base had the function of a virtual realm;

When Nesta became interested and divided part of his mind to form a projection again, he discovered some strange clues......

"Azhara is dishonest, everything here is built for the purpose of livability, there are a large area of spotlights and laser generators, and even a spaceship construction center?"

Constantly greeting the elven projections in the surface base, Nesta slowly walked through the entire area shrouded in the influence of the Shroud, and analyzed the main theme contained in the construction room where it was located.

It is clear that the projections are creating a truly habitable sanctuary here, not just for the "habitability" of the elves, but more broadly for the overall habitability of the families of the home planet.

The outer space laser equipment is used to accelerate or decelerate the spacecraft from this side, they can accelerate the spacecraft that has spread out the "light sail field" to a maximum speed of 0.55 times the speed of light, and the extremely weak drag environment in the vacuum can allow the spacecraft to maintain this speed for a long time even after leaving the laser projection range;

In contrast, the built-in engine of the spaceship, which can barely reach 0.1 times the speed of light at this time, is really not enough in front of it in terms of speed, but fortunately, the flexibility and applicable environment are remarkable.....

For these Proxima Centauri systems alone, it seems that the speed at which the Lightsail Field can be formed is enough to support effective transportation?

Looking at the construction tasks that are underway here, it seems that Nesta has seen the scene where groups of entity elves and followers of various races will actually arrive in the near future.

At that time, this base will no longer be a "ghost town" that will return to dead silence after being partitioned and projected, and the Yongdao spacecraft built here will also be able to fly farther away to the star system, thus continuing to broaden the vision of the Republic.

And the elves' actual control realm and projectable realm can also snowball and continue to expand, until they encounter some insurmountable obstacles.

While he was observing the base and couldn't help but fall into the illusion of the future, the rest of Nesta's clones or projections were not idle, and one different perspective after another was constantly merging into the general thread of thought.

From these perspectives, there is the joy of a five-meter body, serious research, and memories of traveling from place to place.

~~~~~~~~~

There is a fantasy psychedelic city in the center of the northern continent of the home planet, where buildings more than 1,000 meters high are just waiting for leisure, and there is even a 3,000-meter-level building complex that seems to be like a cloud in the center.

In the city, a ten-meter-tall Nesta is walking through the streets, and most of the elves you can see around him are about ten meters in size, so he is not very eye-catching here after changing his face.

But every now and then there are curious glances, most of them focused on the top of Nesta's head, where a beautiful Thumbelina sits, holding her hair in braids.

Along the way, Nesta smiled in response to the curious glances around her, talking to Thumbelina and visiting the city beneath her feet.....

There are only about three million elven inhabitants in the city, and they are not the only ones who live here, because there are many bodies that can still be seen from time to time

The rest of the races, of all shapes and shapes, also seem to inhabit the city.

As far as Nesta could see, almost all of these aliens were skilled in the use of various elven creations with an attitude of incomprehension, and often lived freely as merchants, travelers, and even settlers, in what they thought was the "City of Angels".

"Not all of our compatriots want to live in cities, or the vast majority of them don't.....

While Nesta was immersed in his own rank ascension and genetic research, too much had changed in this world, so countless Azhara on top of his head had been making such introductions everywhere.

"Hmm..... On the ice sheets, in the forests, and at the bottom of the sea, there are so many kinds of interests."

Receiving thoughts from the clones in the rest of the directions, Nesta replied with a smile.....

To be honest, this kind of travel and conversation is not a very efficient way to understand, and even if you separate more bodies, there is always a suspicion of wasting time;

But I'm happy to buy a thousand dollars, after all, Nesta is not a cultivation and research machine, he needs to have a life to adjust, so walking slowly and leisurely with his partner like this, looking at the past, is a comfortable and comfortable choice for him.

"Also, I saw it?"

"What do you see?"

Thumbelina stepped on the newly woven hair ladder, stepping on the middle strand of her hair and descending from the top of her head to Nesta's eyes, then tilted her head in a swaying motion.

"Hey~ Where else can it be, of course it's the surface base next to 2-1-5, and you won't build the ecosystem there for ghosts, right?"

"Hmph~ It's not mature anyway!"

"Don't lie to me, do you need me to go through the follow-up plan myself?"

As she spoke, Nesta raised her hand and curled up her thumb and middle finger in front of her, and then flicked it lightly towards Azhara's waist and abdomen, causing her to exclaim and swing out with the ladder;

However, it was clear that this "exclamation" was a bit exaggerated and fake, and quickly turned into a "giggle" laugh, as Azhara bent her knees and slammed into Nesta's eyelids as she fell;

"Hey, young! You ruthless she-elf!"

Nesta, who didn't hurt much, and Azara, who also knew it wouldn't hurt much, cooperated with each other for a little bit here before they brought the conversation back to the previous direction.

"There are too many uncertainties, I just won't allow you to go~"

Afraid that his partner would disappear again, Aisara, who had not been seen for a hundred or two years, shook his head in denial almost as if he was a little tricky.

"Hey, no, you haven't reacted yet?"

"What's the reaction?"

"Forget it, I've already answered the phone on the next 5, let's continue to look at the scenery."

"Oh."

As he spoke, Nesta looked up at the two spheres in the sky the size of a basin from his previous life, and his super eyesight was strong enough for him to see the situation over there, the oceans, continents, and even cities on them.

~~~~~~~~~~

The many clones located in and around the home planet were browsing the vast area at the same time, and it was as if more than a million pairs of eyes were observing together, and all the information was finally gathered together in the "general thread" where Nesta was honestly unknown.

So he saw that the base of the elves was no longer confined to the Black Forest at this moment, and although the once magnificent headquarters still maintained its magnificence, the inhabitants inside were actually not as many as in the past, and they were barely maintained at about 10 million;

However, after experiencing a great migration and diffusion due to environmental protection, even though the factors that forced them to migrate and spread in the first place have now disappeared with the iteration of technology, the impact caused by them has been preserved......

For example, the headquarters of 10 million mouths is already the largest in existence

The other more than 1,000 metropolises that are also located on the surface of the three directions have an average of about 3 million elves living in them, and there are also all kinds of foreign races living together in them.

The remaining elves have built settlements in other strange places, ranging from a few to a few hundred thousand, and most of them are inhabited by elves.

These settlements are all over the three stars, that is, the mother planet at the feet, and the two purgatory stars and the death star in the sky that have been hollowed out and transformed, and they are all remote but beautiful places some distance from the metropolis.

However, with the support of the gravitational field effect vehicle, the gravitational field magnetic field public transportation system, and the Shrewd, even if there is only one elf to settle in a remote location, there is actually no inconvenient problem;

Moreover, the ruling government usually does not care where the elves live, whether it is entering the city, digging a hole in the woods to live, or going to the tundra tundra to build a treehouse to live.

～～～

On the other hand, when some clones were exchanging living experiences with the elves in the Antarctic Ice Field, the survival of the continent's races was also an issue that Nesta was investigating.....

Although they often appear in the elven city, the number of settlers here is actually less than one thousandth of the total, and the vast majority of the rest still maintain the mode of gathering and surviving by sects, city-states, and races.

In terms of faith and culture, because after the passage of hundreds of years, even the longest-lived ones of the tribes have changed their populations at this moment;

And as if in line with this, in the "cultural replacement" carried out by the top leaders of the various sects for the purpose of domination, the beliefs of the gods of the old era have completely disappeared from this world, and the independent cultures of the many races belonging to the sect are only trivial and incoherent residues.

On the contrary, as a subordinate city-state of the plateau that had fled from the world, due to its late accession to the WTO, it gradually formed a relatively diverse belief in gods in the common mission of many parties.

[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading

It's really growing too fast, and if it weren't for the fact that they still have a lifespan limit, maybe they can quadruple it now......

And to such a scale of mouths, and to provide the Republic with a steady stream of resources for casting spells in the Void Realm, as well as the majestic faith path born from it, there are hundreds of thousands of starry sky fortresses that can carry massive projections, and those ongoing base construction in the Proxima Centauri star system;

Moreover, in the process of transforming the Infernal and Dead Star bodies, as well as the ecological environment, their numerical scale also played a pivotal role.....

After the Republic hollowed out their cores, turned them into two quasar fortresses, and pulled them into their current orbits, they opened up more than 100 habitable ecospheres with shields, and made the continental tribes the first settlers on its surface in the true sense of the word;

Then, by using methods such as "creating myths", they developed the directional beliefs they needed, so as to gradually complete the environmental transformation of the surface of the stars in a more energy-efficient and time-saving way.

The way to achieve this is to combine the virtual concept with the operation of the real world, just like the original "Holy Light Pool.....

For example, the breath of the anemo god blows from west to east, and she brings us moist moisture;

For another example, the god of the sky and the god of the earth gave birth to the god of the sea after a hundred years of intercourse......

The casters used the Imaginary Spell Casting Resources to realize these myths one by one, and compiled a set of control systems for the brain that can adapt to other conditions while also running stably;

Similarly, there are a series of myths about the gods of water, air, monsoons, earth, etc., all of which are filled with new wine in old bottles, according to existing needs, and all kinds of gods;

The content in the process is the abstraction and anthropomorphism of the concept of nature, which corresponds to the transformation process that takes place in reality.....

The containment of the escape of Element 1, the generation and preservation of liquid water on the surface, the formation and rise and fall of plates, the extraction, sedimentation and exchange of the atmosphere, as well as the regulated temperature, controlled ocean currents and monsoons, as well as the input of a large number of fast-growing and dying mosses and microorganisms, have all played a role in accelerating the transformation of the ecology outside the shelter.

In this process, the more the myths are believed, the more they can provide a high-quality source of belief motivation, and when all the myths have been edited and realized, and then there is a mutually promoting and mutually reinforcing interaction, even if it is initially generated, an ecological grid that is still fragile but has been woven into shape.

During this period, the coverage of the habitable shelter area became larger and larger, and more and more believers survived in it, while the natural ecology outside the shelter circle was completely stabilized after a period of continuous operation with the support of faith energy.

At this time, a sub-stable ecology was born that could function on its own even if it no longer burned its thoughts.

Then, in the process of adjustment and increase from time to time, this sub-stable ecology will transform to true stability, and one day in the future it will become a real natural operating state.

Today, although the surface ecology of the two planets is still in a "sub-stable period", the inhabitants of the two planets no longer need to live in the shelter, but can move freely in every area of the planet's surface.

Thus, in the orbit of the parent star of the three moons, there are three adjacent habitable stars.....

For the time being, the mother planet still has the largest total number of mouths, with more than 56 billion inhabitants living here after including the elves and other races;

For the rest, there are a total of 500 million people living on Infernal Star and about 400 million people living on Death Star, and most of them are engaged in work related to mining and environmental protection. In other words, the land is still very barren, but it cannot support the drinking water needs of the inhabitants of this scale;

Therefore, at present, a large amount of basic materials such as food, feces, and water are sent to the other two celestial bodies that are very close to each other every day along the "gravitational field elevator" between the three parties and the moon general control center.

The word "very close" here is not true

Imaginary fingers, but the distance between the three parties is really close.....

With the large moon as the central point, they form an equilateral triangle with a side length of less than 1.3 million kilometers, and when you look up from the surface of the earth, you can even faintly see small dots symbolizing the city.

~~~~~~~

As one of Nesta's projections was looking at the neutron demon's dinner plate on the surface of the quasar, the phantom of Azhara appeared in front of him,

"Sure enough, I knew you'd come over here.... Tell me, what are you up to?"

"I want to take a part of my body out and have a look." Nesta replied.

Hearing this, Aisara's expression was obviously a little relaxed, and she had ignored this matter a little before, thinking that an elf as big as Nesta would run away.

"Whew..... I see; She didn't seem to object much, but she still asked puzzled, "So, is there any specific purpose?"

"Purpose, I want to try to swallow the stars.....

"Huh? Is it like that?" Azhara looked up and pointed to the accretion disk of the neutron star in the distance with her lower jaw, and then asked suspiciously.

"No, I can't do that yet..... At the very least, you have to gain control at the atomic level, or even at the microscopic level."

After a repudiation with some regret, Nesta replied again,

"I mean, dedicate a part of my body to the rock-based star, turn it into molecular fluids, and efficiently eat the ingredients I need, and convert them into my own cells."

Before he could finish speaking, another phantus appeared next to them, revealing the fanged body in it, and he seemed to have heard the previous words, so he answered with some excitement,

"Is it already possible to do this? No wonder you just asked about Stellar Voyage."

"It should be possible, the only problem is that the time is spent..... The more molecular weight you put in, the more efficient it will be, and if you throw all the existing 230,000 tons into it, plus the special astral modification, you should be able to maintain efficient growth for a long time."

Nesta shook her head and sighed,

"This kind of assimilation ability is quite powerful, but if we rely on ingesting farmed salamander meat to maintain growth, then the star field we control will have to become a salamander farm in the future......

"Haha, it's very likely that you're talking about, maybe the volcanic salamander can become the largest large creature in the universe because of us~"
