In the silence of space, the vast chitin carapace stretches as far as the eye can see, enveloping the vast continent of flesh and blood supported by the spirit bone structure at the feet, and the blood vessels that transport nutrients and the connective tissue of the neural network that coordinates the lighting of each area are buried deep in the wriggling tentacles and muscle fibers, like the dense root network of a towering giant tree.
But the difference is that the crown of this spherical giant tree is 'inside' and the roots are 'outside'.
The structure of the organic Dyson sphere is basically the same as that of the conventional power generation Dyson sphere, which is a hollow sphere that wraps the star, the only difference is that the inner wall of the Dyson sphere is covered with solar panels and energy transmission devices used to absorb the spectral radiation of the star, while the inner wall of the organic Dyson sphere is covered with layers of emerald green, red and blue leaves, which absorb the light and heat of the star by photosynthesis to synthesize the carbonaceous substances and various compounds required for the reproduction of organic life.
"Using stellar-scale photosynthesis with organic Dyson spheres, I can produce a swarm bioship as fast as a giant dock running at full speed." Colonia sat cross-legged in the bud cavity of a biological mothership, gazing with satisfaction at the newly completed organic Dyson ball. The joy of joy climbed up the delicate face that the insect mother had spent a lot of time and effort carefully carved, and her eyebrows were full of charm.
"And unlike giant shipyards, which rely on large quantities of minerals and raw materials, the organic Dyson ball is completely self-sufficient in the production of swarm bioships, and there is no need to ask for a single substance from the outside world." Colonia clasped her cheeks in her hands, thinking: "This is the ultimate use of stellar energy...... I don't know how to reward me? How can you reward me? ”
In another bud cavity of the mothership, a young man in a white research coat stared blankly at the project report in his hand, nodded imperceptibly, and signed his name at the end of the report: Joshua, Head of the Biology Department of the Order of Truth.
Joshua has been leading the researchers of the entire biology department under Russell's orders for many years to assist Colonia in the development of the 'new human' project, and the progress cannot be said to be completely absent, but it is still far from Russell's original request, his requirements are too high, and it is outrageously more difficult than the emperor to create the genetic prototype.
Although the original goal of creating a new human was not achieved, there were some windfalls.
The 'organic Dyson ball' in front of him is Joshua's windfall.
Colonia spent a lot of energy on improving the energy utilization of organic life, and the researchers of the Department of Biology were forced to exhaustively try all possible forms of energy transformation in organic life, so much so that they created an organic Dyson sphere that could perfectly use the radiation of stars in flesh and blood.
This strange thing directly transformed the insect swarm of Koroniai from a ship-based nomad to a Henderson farmer.
Now that its swarm doesn't have to devour the biomass of other creatures, it can fill its stomach and multiply itself with organic Dyson balls alone, and Colonia is very happy.
"Although it still fails to meet the requirements of leaders to create new humans, this organic Dyson ball is also a new exploration on the road of 'what is a more efficient form of energy use'." Joshua put away the project report and breathed a sigh of relief.
The main business was not completed, but there was a side business that could be handed over, proving that he was not a mediocre person who was waiting to die.
Looking at the organic Dyson ball beating like a heart, Joshua thought further: "And from this point of view, it seems that our engineering department and military personnel have gone the wrong way before, it is too expensive and too inefficient to build warships and cannons out of alloys, and biotechnology is the real cheap and efficient way to war......"
At the same time, in the central rotunda of a 'catacomb' mothership, the Emperor of the Oruska dynasty uttered the same sentiment as Joshua: "It seems that mankind has found a true way to war. ”
"Your Majesty's eyes are like torches." At the bottom left of the Emperor's seat, the crowned general of the Oruska dynasty bowed slightly, agreeing with the statement of the French Emperor Hackmefit.
The space necrons are proud, perhaps even more arrogant than the haughty Aydarins, but at this moment, they recognize the wisdom of humanity.
In the Astral Army of the Human Empire, the life of a trained soldier is most of the time less expensive than a laser rifle in his hand, which is not some fantasy, but a cold fact.
Even if you strip away the sparse war logistics and industrial production capacity of the human empire, organic flesh and blood are the cheapest thing in the universe.
The most abundant elements in the universe are light elements such as hydrogen and helium, while the reserves of heavy elements such as iron and nickel are extremely rare.
If you want to synthesize water, just find a gas giant and get some hydrogen, and the most common stellar fusion is also hydrogen fusion. But if you want to synthesize heavy elements such as nickel or even gold, you have to do it with fusion compression at the stellar level.
Even if you look at the whole universe, all kinds of heavy metal elements are extremely scarce and precious resources, and the act of casting a body from living metal is even more extravagant.
From the perspective of tissue composition, a million human beings may not be worth more than 1 gram of iron - the trace elements required for normal human metabolism are naturally not counted.
"The appearance of this organic Dyson ball shows that the humans of Falla have finally moved away from the children's games of wielding iron rods and throwing stones, and have begun to embrace a higher form of warfare - biological warfare." Huck Moffett sat on the Crypt Mothership and nodded slightly, its detector detecting a large number of individual biological signals inside the organic Dyson sphere, a huge biological arsenal.
Organic organisms are the cheapest thing in the universe, and how to use the cheapest matter to support the most intense war is the art of biological warfare.
The last artist to apply biotechnology to warfare was named Gu Sheng.
The Ancient Saint is the culmination of psionic energy, genes, and biotechnology, and the Aidaling Clan, known as the perfect creature, is the creation of the Ancient Saint, and the green-skinned orcs who are still wreaking havoc on the galaxy are actually the biological weapons created by the Ancient Saints back then.
"The weapons of the ancient saints are still poisoning the galaxy to this day, and the horror of biotechnology can be seen. And the humans of Falla have already built a stellar-sized flesh factory, and they seem to have begun to follow in the footsteps of the ancient saints. ”
The glow in Halmayfit's eyes was slightly brighter, and the appearance of the organic Dyson ball was firmly imprinted in his mind: "Although this is just a clumsy imitation of the ancient saint's technique, they are imitating the ancient saint after all, and it is worth being vigilant." ”
In the 48th year of the 40th millennium, because of the shadow of the ancient saint seen on the organic Dyson sphere, the space necrons finally began to truly respect the humans of the Human Federation.
