Chapter 2336 Naisen No. 5
Following Soshyan to patrol the two planets were sages from Ulanhuda. After simple calculations, their team believed that developing Naisen No. 1 was It is a very cost-effective thing. Being close to the star also facilitates large-scale facilities to use solar resources to reduce the planet's dependence on external energy. It can just make up for the increasing demand for minerals in Ulan Huda with the rapid development of industry.
Since they said so, Soshyan had no objection and handed over the development work of Naisen No. 1 to Ulan Huda.
Naisen 2 is pretty much the same. It has a high temperature on the surface, a thin atmosphere, and a high concentration of heavy elements. It’s just not as extreme as Nathan 1. At least servitors with protective equipment can still walk on the planet’s surface. , the development difficulty here is relatively small, and the collection station and orbital station of Griffin 4 are still in operation before the delivery.
Ulan Huda was not polite. With Soshyan's authorization, he directly took over the management of all facilities. They have a package of development plans in the future. Of course, not only Ulan Huda will contribute to these plans, but also The two hive worlds under the Astral Knights also have to contribute. After all, Ulanhuda is not close to each other, and the resources developed here are also in demand in the two hive worlds.
After seeing the two resource planets, Soshyan immediately set off for Nessen-5.
As the second civilized world in the galaxy, the natural conditions of Nathan 5 are slightly worse than that of Nathan 4. Because it is further away from the star, its ground temperature is much lower than that of Nathan 4. This is also It was not easy for the world to feed itself. Later, the world discovered many rare mineral resources with huge reserves. Therefore, with the help of the Outer Galaxy Trade Association, many cities dedicated to mining and primary industry were born, which in turn made the planet The population of the planet expanded rapidly, and the cities expanded and turned into hives. The environment of the entire planet was further destroyed, so that Nessen 5 had to be fed by agricultural worlds in neighboring systems.
In comparison, the natural environment of Nathan IV is better preserved, and the climate is more moderate. After becoming the station of the Astral Knights and being exempted from tithes, Nathan IV's The huge organic farm actually makes the planet self-sufficient - of course this is also due to the planet's ability to transfer some industries, especially heavy industries, to orbit, and this is also due to the Astartes Chapter and Ulan Huda's Assistance, it is difficult for a normal planet to do this. Not only is the amount of work huge, but the safety issues are also more serious.
Due to prior notification, when Soshyan's flagship arrived in the orbit of Nessen 5, all the upper echelons, including the planet's governor, were already waiting in the empty airport reception hall. inside.
After a while of meaningless pleasantries, Soshiyang took the luxury airship prepared by the planet governor and began to inspect the world that already belonged to the war group.
After entering the atmosphere, Soshyan found that the air quality in this world was indeed very bad. The clouds were almost all gray and black. He could imagine what people on the ground saw when they raised their heads - no sun, eternal haze.
As the airship slowly lowered its altitude, through the observation window, Soshyan could see the spire of Karin Hive standing through the clouds - this is also the core of the planet's capital.
The moment he entered the clouds, Soshyan felt as if he had dived from the sunny water into the dark water.
At first, his vision was just blurry, but as the huge exhaust port of the airship blew away the mist, he saw the true appearance of this cold world - the exhaust tower of the giant power station spewed out a steady stream. The extremely gray smoke, between them are wider and lower cooling towers. The heat mist ripples around the huge and monster-like facilities. The city's layered neighborhood guard towers and communication masts appear dark against the black background. grey.
Soshiyan adjusted the focus of the observation window, and his vision passed over the land that was almost completely covered by the drifting fog. On the hundreds of square kilometers of land around the city, there were craters big enough to accommodate a Titan. Those are leaky mines that have been exhausted, some have been filled with wastewater and turned into huge chemical lakes, and some have become homes of tribes of scavengers and wanderers that cannot even establish a nest.
Soshyan's sight passed through the industrial wasteland outside the hive city, and finally stopped at the outline of the hive city that was getting closer and closer.
In all directions of the hive city, large turrets stand in the vague mist. The entire cone-shaped city does not look like a human habitation, but more like a magnificent steel peak. Different areas are separated by alloy walls. And there are Gothic spires every other section in the middle of the parapet. They are equipped with platforms and void shield generators, projecting uneven silhouettes on the dim ground. Compared to the pure skies, forests and mountains of Nessen 4, this is simply a picture of hell, a nightmare of high industrial pollution clogged with smoke and ash.
Although he is too high up to see any specific life, Soshyan knows what is happening inside the dark metal walls of this giant hive.
He knew that tens of billions of creatures lived there, filling crowded and crude living units like rats in sewers. He also knew that both men and women had to work in various roaring factories every day. Working for more than ten hours, they produced goods or weapons that could be exchanged for profit in the assembly line under harsh conditions. He also knew that the only thing they could do besides work was to return to the small house of less than ten square meters after leaving exhausted. Room, get a little flickering light from the cheapest lumens.
Above all, he knew that the basic needs of human existence—eating, sleeping, reproducing, laughing, and dreaming—could only be met occasionally here.
The vast majority of people can only survive half-dead in pressure and hard labor. The vast majority of people may not live past forty years old, and the meaning of all this is just to produce for the operation of the imperial agency and the war across the galaxy. More resources and materials - and, of course, "a little bit" of the rulers' little selfish desires and enjoyments.
Soshiyang never believed in the excuse that he didn’t know because he didn’t see it. Some people just pretended not to know.
In such an environment, people are just raw materials, components, and materials in the eternal feast, and this feast has lasted for ten thousand years, and no one knows when it will end.
Soshiyan knew this. During the expedition to the Maelstrom, he knew that the same thing happened in at least a hundred worlds. Almost all the nests in the empire were the same as here, wrapped in smoke, except for hard labor. There is nothing outside the nest of despair, and the meaning of human beings has become nothing.
What can save a person from such a situation?
He was thinking in his mind.
What can make people’s lives no longer in vain?
Soshiyang sighed, he couldn't find the answer, even now he needs this flesh and blood machine to continue to operate.
I haven’t written much about farming. This is considered a new attempt, and there may be some imperfections later on. Let’s just make do with it——
