"This is really powerful. It was a big red soil ball a year ago."

Lying on the porthole, Qianqian looked at the land of Mars that was getting closer outside, and said in surprise.

Because the size of the fleet is too large, if all of them land on Mars, it may harm the ecological environment here, so we parked all the giant warships in the Mars synchronous orbit, and only the 22 transport ships and us landed directly. The shuttle I was on, and some light-weight frigates, have reached the "inland" of the empire anyway, and the whole world is inside the surveillance network and military defense line of the macro world, so I am not afraid of danger here, frigates Escorts are by convention only.

The twenty-two transport ships did not land at the same place, but directly headed to twenty-two places in the northern hemisphere according to the previous plan. After all, we are going to resettle 450 million refugees instead of 1800 demolition households. The largest housing project in history cannot be tossed according to the process of rebuilding the old city. How to divert 450 million people to the entire new colonial planet is a very complicated mathematical problem-of course, I will directly leave this matter to the experts.

In addition to the twenty-two transport ships, there are also some refugees—well, it seems that they can’t be called refugees now, but immigrants. There are also some immigrants who landed with the imperial fleet. They are some residents of the original big city. There are about a hundred thousand residents selected from other places, and one tenth of these people are high-level monks. I plan to place them near the Martian refuge, and these people will build a city near the refuge. , the latter will also serve as the first city where diplomatic relations between the ruin tribe and the Martian tribe are formally established, which is very beneficial for the smooth integration of the two races in this world.

The shuttle and other spaceships have penetrated into the atmosphere of Mars. The shelter and auxiliary facilities are not far ahead, which can be clearly seen with the naked eye. Qianqian slept in the lounge for a while before, and now she looks full of energy. They were happily lying on the porthole to observe the base outside, and Saeko was also smiling at the side. The two girls were very excited. One was because they saw something new and interesting, and the other was because they were about to reunite with their old friends. They pointed at the large forest below and the facilities hidden in the forest, while chattering about their functions—to be honest, it’s normal for Qianqian to be so happy, but Saeko, who is calm and calm on weekdays It's surprising that a girl has such a lively side.

And when Saeko and Qianqian were researching these facilities, I also took the time to browse the information about the ecological construction of the new Mars. : Although the things that happened on this planet are not earth-shattering, they are surprising enough, and from a certain point of view, the construction of the new Mars is of great significance!

This planet is one of the empire's colonial planets in terms of registration sequence, but the empire's construction on it is very limited, even limited to a set of planetary colonization balls and a small number of environmental expansion machines, which is equivalent to providing only a city and The closed ecological dome near the city, and then Lilina provided some super plant seeds to the planet in her own name. This is the last assistance that has something to do with the empire, and then we have not provided any direct help to New Mars. Here The rest of the ecological construction was actually completed jointly by several other worlds and forces.

That happened after the carnival. As one of the transportation hubs and diversion venues of the carnival, Mars Refuge communicated with countless civilizations in the macro world, including powerful imperial vassal races like the New Eden Federation. , the latter have been more or less threatened by the power of the abyss, so when they saw the survivors in the Mars refuge whose homes were destroyed by the gate of the abyss, they were naturally touched, and some race leaders decided to help the survivors in the refuge Human beings—after all, they are all civilizations threatened by the power of the abyss. The former was lucky enough to resist and became stronger, but the latter failed to resist and even wiped out its home planet. The same encounter had different results. It is normal for those who want to help.

However, there is only one refuge, and there are many civilizations capable of helping them rebuild the planet. No one dares to lead the contracting system for this kind of thing. Therefore, the leaders of the races made a total effort, and finally decided to provide their own strength to help the residents of the refuge build a new one. Mars.

Several civilizations participating in the assistance have submitted relevant applications to the Space-Time Administration. Since this is only a modification of a planet, it is a small colony star customization project that cannot be smaller in the daily affairs of the empire, so these applications have not even been passed. The royal family's approval was passed directly, so I didn't know until now that I took the initiative to check the information to know that such a commemorative event happened here: several civilizations under the rule of the empire spontaneously joined forces to help their brother civilizations.

Well, in my opinion, this is of great significance, and it should even be celebrated. After all, in a complex multiverse, it is not easy for several civilizations to be so harmonious. However, in the values of the Apostles of Xiling, it seems that this is nothing It's a big thing to be proud of. Anyway, Sandora doesn't think it's special at all. She commented like this: "Under the rule of the empire, shouldn't all civilizations be monolithic?"

I admit that this statement is true. Under the rule of the empire, there is indeed no conflict of interest among civilizations—because their greatest interests are all under the control of the empire, and the way of distribution depends on the overall consideration of the empire rather than their own competition. But even so, you can see It is quite a happy thing to help each other in the world under the rule of the empire.

"Well, there is a hexagonal tower with a small white corner in the forest. In fact, the light cross-section is as large as two football fields." Saeko pointed out the porthole and said happily, "It is the atmospheric circulation factory of the entire Mars. One, there are more than a dozen such things in other places on Mars. This one was assisted by Speaker Roland Gale of the Pan-Galactic Civilization Community after the carnival. In less than a year, they have already reduced the oxygen content of the Martian atmosphere. It has reached the point where you can breathe directly, and the atmospheric structure is still being reorganized. A while ago, Shizuka-sensei sent an email saying that people can now move outside the shelter without breathing equipment."

"The big crater in front is an entrance. It was made by the earth shamans from the Azeroth world. I don't understand it very well, but I heard that the shamans want to use this to build a set of planets in Mars that can communicate with the planet. The 'net' of core direct communication, they intend to use this network to reshape the magnetic field environment of Mars, it seems to have almost succeeded, I heard that the magma lake is even directly explored under this big cave, and the shamans summon elements in the magma cave! It’s unbelievable to think about.”

"Wait," I suddenly interrupted the girl's excited narration, "Saeko, you said that the shaman of Azeroth is replenishing elemental energy for Mars?"

This is incredible news. If the shamans of Azeroth can even do this, aren't they using magic to reshape a planet

Saeko thought for a while, and smiled apologetically, "My lord brother, I don't understand this either."

At this time, Sandora next to me suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said: "Oh, it should be the advanced class of the Imperial Military Academy—some ravens started classes in the academy, and recruited many potential apprentices from various worlds to learn from them. Mysterious knowledge, apart from mages and shamans sent by Azeroth to study, I remember that Raven has an ability to use mysterious power to change the energy frequency of the planet, transform the star, and even make a purely technological planet appear magical or spiritual This kind of raven is known as a star carver—an expert in planet carving. In the old empire era, in addition to sending a Xiling host to transform a planet, another popular method was to send A raven has passed, and compared with the Xiling host, although the transformation intensity of the raven may be a little lower, they can essentially turn a planet into a 'customized product' that meets our requirements in the shortest time. From this point In fact, even the Xiling hosts are inferior to them. However, the number of ravens in the New Empire is too small now, and it is not enough for them to supplement the military force. Naturally, few ravens have time to study star shaping. Then But it is a very energy-consuming and complex subject. So they began to give this knowledge to ordinary races from the macro world. Anyway, it is not a secret. Letting ordinary races use their population advantages to help the empire customize new colonial stars is based on the principle of not wasting .”

I was dumbfounded.

"Don't be so surprised," Sandora rubbed her arms in my arms with a smile, "It can only be said that the mysterious power of the new empire is too weak now, so don't think that the proportion of mysterious power in the old empire is the same as it is now The raven is a special unit that can directly control various energy bodies. Their bodies look like entities, but in fact that entity is just a mass of energy with a special information description method. By changing the information description method and their own The 'wavelength' of the raven can have infinitely powerful magic power to shape energy. The physical state of a planet is inseparable from the energy state. Since they can control the energy of the entire planet without limit, they can also indirectly change the physical parameters of the planet, such as Geomagnetism, rotation, atmospheric distribution and ocean currents, and the same work can be given to ordinary races, as long as they master how to apply the complex energy system of the entire planet. Of course, this requires a lot of manpower—the macro world has no shortage of people. "

Sandora patiently explained to me how the ravens transformed a planet. I was very surprised by this novel knowledge. Rats still have such a strong potential, not to mention that they have trained a large number of apprentices in the macro world—the ones who helped the shelter transform the Martian environment in the past year are undoubtedly the Azeroth shaman apprentices trained by the ravens , the latter may use this planet as an internship base...

At this time, I remembered that sentence: No matter magic or science, in the final analysis, they are just the means needed to explore or transform the world. Magic is not mysterious, and they can also be explained by science. Conversely, the things that science can achieve, It can also be done with magic, just like changing the planet. Of course, the atmosphere control system can reshape the atmosphere, but I think it should be possible to use more than 10,000 shamans to release the light wind totem. Any one person has the power to stir up the entire atmosphere—with just one global lightning storm, they can even create a whole new ozone layer in forty-eight hours.

The fleet landed on a plain tens of kilometers away from the refuge. This is a large plain that is wide enough. Its unbelievably flat terrain and the straight dividing line that clearly separates the vegetation in the border area all show that the entire plain is It is man-made. On New Mars, similar plains can be seen everywhere. They are the product of the remodeling project of the Martian soil layer. The contractors of this part of the project may be a bit inconspicuous among the various vassal races, but the potential is also great: Academy Urban, um, science side.

Academy City provides a civilian nanotechnology that is different from the lingering loop, and uses it to transform the soil of Mars. These nano-robots were originally a kind of experimental product, and Academy City developed it for the transformation of alien planets. —Of course, before the emergence of the Empire, this project was close to science fiction. Although scientists have developed extremely efficient nanomachines, they have no way to safely launch them to Mars, and there is no way to mass-produce them to a minimum quantity that is stable enough to proliferate. Later, with the help of scientists from the New Eden Federation, Academy City truly mastered the above two technologies, and made the "nano-machines for planet transformation" into a super-finished product that can complete the task within one year. It can be said that this The technology itself is also a product of the mutual help between the vassal civilizations of the empire - it turns out that the military command department is indeed a very useful thing, and the vassal civilizations of the old empire era did not develop like this.

Let me make a digression here, I always think that the technology tree of Academy City is actually a little crooked, you have never even flown out of the solar system, and you can toss things like stagnant loops and artificial heavens, Aleister! Does the talent confirmation not need to be washed

"Your Majesty, the mayor of the shelter is waiting for you."

Just when I was thinking that a low-end civilization like Academy City, which has no outstanding strength in all aspects, can make a difference in this kind of big project, and lamented the rapid development of the various vassal races of the empire under the influence of the Military Command, the West Weiss’ reminder suddenly brought me back to my senses. When I looked up, it turned out that the people in charge of the shelter who had received the news before were already waiting at the edge of the landing field. Because the imperial shuttle was under martial law by the imperial soldiers, they couldn’t rush over.

After obtaining permission, the imperial soldiers brought the dozen or so people in front of us. The leader was a middle-aged man who was not tall, with a pale complexion, but very energetic. I knew this was the person in charge of the refuge. This middle-aged man was chosen from among the hundreds of thousands of survivors on the planet after they were transferred to the Mars shelter. I don't remember much about him, but from what I've been reporting, the man did an excellent job with him. , at least after the end of the world, he can bring hundreds of thousands of survivors to build the shelter to this point, he is already quite good.

"Your Majesty, it is an honor for us to have you come to this planet in person," the mayor of the refuge was obviously very excited about the lineup of almost all members of the imperial royal family. He looked at Sandora and me, looking a little at a loss, But the behavior is still very decent, "According to your will, we did not organize too grand welcome ceremony, everything is kept simple, and the residence for the new neighbors has not yet been prepared, but the facilities there are no problem, and the environment of Mars is now close to direct. Living conditions, living in a simple residence for a short period of time should not cause any problems."

"Very good, very good," I nodded repeatedly, while waving my hand to signal the other party not to be too serious, "Then what, relax, relax, don't be so serious—you made me nervous. I just fought a big battle , but I can’t stand another battle on diplomatic rhetoric. The empire will arrange for the new immigrants. You don’t have to affect your life because of it. In fact, what we mean is to give you a notice-the shelter is still very difficult, I know .”

Hearing this, the other party showed a somewhat helpless smile, and finally spread his hands in recognition.

Indeed, although the Mars refuge is on the right track, it is still a city with a population of only a few hundred thousand, and now the rest of the planet has to welcome 450 million new immigrants. Such a large-scale project, the refuge basically They can't help at all, they can only receive a notice and watch the whole process, and since this is tantamount to a direct arrangement by the high-level empire, they have no need to act on their own. It's just that the mayor of the refuge in front of me still has less direct contact with the empire, and he was a little unnecessarily nervous when talking to us. In fact, he can relax a little bit. Look at Jaina, look at Thrall, look at Rolla? Stewart, look at the Hongbai and Zima who come to the house every now and then to eat and drink, how many of those guys are polite in front of us...

I don't know why when I think about it, a kind of deep sadness suddenly comes to my heart.

This plain is just a landing ground for the fleet. This kind of place that is ventilated on all sides and far away from water and energy sources is certainly not suitable for building temporary cities for hundreds of thousands of immigrants. What they are going to is a huge complex on the other side of the forest. The facilities have good living conditions and basic buildings, and there are very large food plantations. I heard that it was originally designed as a refuge satellite city. Later, for some reason, this plan was terminated early, and it is now in a semi-abandoned state. Now it comes from Settlers from the world of ruins are about to take it over.

It's just that there is no suitable platform for large aircraft to land near the facility, and we don't intend to destroy the vegetation that has been built up here with great difficulty, so we chose to let the transport ship land a few kilometers away.

Immigrants from the ruined world changed into an atmospheric transport plane that can fly over the forest in the transport ship, and were led by the aircraft from the shelter to their new home. We also went together, although this kind of matter can be handled by the subordinates theoretically. But we still want to watch the first immigrants arrive in their new homes. From the report of the transport plane pilot, we know that the immigrants’ emotions are extremely high, or excited. This unheard and unseen world has a huge impact on them. They grew up in the iron ruins. They have never seen a living With plants and such a clean sky, they even enthusiastically speculated on the transport plane whether the forest below was a special deck camouflage net. It seemed that it would take some time for them to adapt to a real ecological planet.

Soon the first batch of aircraft we took arrived at the destination, and the new home for hundreds of thousands of immigrants appeared before our eyes. This is a complex of buildings hidden in a large dense jungle. They are all large-scale functional building complexes that are not very suitable for living. Since the entire Martian ecosystem is currently in a state of catalytic growth, this facility that has been abandoned for less than a year has been covered with vines and mosses. It looks like an ancient relic that has been abandoned for hundreds of years, but despite this atmosphere, traces of its high technology can still be seen everywhere in this building complex. A large number of giant machines are still running slowly at key points of the building complex, lighting The systems and ventilation were also functioning normally - in fact I suspect they could not be shut down as it was broad daylight and the oxygen content of the surrounding air apparently did not require ventilation. Surrounding the building complex is a large circle of magnificent walls more than ten meters high. The texture of the walls seems to be an interstellar alloy, indicating that this abandoned facility was once a closed research base, and at the top of this circle of walls I still Traces of the dismantling of the device were found. It seems that there was once a cover covering the facility, but it has been removed now.

Such a strange facility makes people very puzzled. I don't know who started such a grand project here, and then suddenly gave up the project here because of why, but this doubt came when we landed and came to the gate of the facility Afterwards, it was easily solved, and the answer made me feel anxious for a moment: there is a huge holographic display screen in front of the main entrance of this huge circular closed facility, and a line of large characters scrolls on it.

The first phase of the Misaka Eco-Dome, the experimental base of the ecological interest group in the high school of the Imperial Central Military Academy.
