(ps: Some readers reported that the tonnage setting of the cargo star spider and starship is too small. I calculated it. An iron block with a side length of 100 meters weighs 7.8 million tons. The previous 500,000 tons is indeed too small. Modify )
Poisonous Bean drove its 'Qiming Bean' back to the Sheep's Hoof star system.
The 10-million-ton cargo Star Spider transported all the core components removed from the Pedirnan Lo O Star God in one trip.
Things are valuable and the journey is long. Hong Ma led a group of fighting bugs to accompany the ship to escort them.
Long Bai's Tarbot starship is not weak in power. The dimensional space carries 10,000 specially selected ants with scientific knowledge and work experience, setting off from the Aquamarine star system.
Molan's Xiaolongbai itself is equipped with a dimensional space for life to survive, and can transport 3,000 specialized ants at a time. It is piloted by Caolong and Yuzu.
…
Aris star system.
It is a remote, low-rent, semi-mineral first-level source star system.
16 planets, 10 of which are mineral stars, many metal raw materials can be purchased nearby, which can save a lot of freight.
There are also several first-level source star systems nearby that are being exploited to form mining stars.
Thus, most of the people who settled on the other six living planets were 'miner bugs' who were looking for work in nearby mining stars to make a living.
Hunan Star,
Long Bai rented the territory of three districts in one go.
North District 6578 is at the junction of North District 7577 and North District 7578. Ghost Fan and Xingyunbai, who arrived first, have already built an industrial park and production factory under the command of Xingshenno.
Long Bai piloted the Tubai and arrived first.
Open an ant nest and start cultivating an ant colony.
As early as on the home planet, when they were just mountain lord-level ants, Long Bai discovered that the ant colonies cultivated by the Dominion Throne had strong knowledge learning abilities, and the ant colonies would teach each other. .
The ten thousand specialized ants brought by Long Bai became the 'mentors' of the ant colony, responsible for the enlightenment education of the new ants.
12 years of basic knowledge education.
Then the three assistant kings Heiti, Shuangse Jinhuai and Shuangse Jinrong will organize and arrange for standardized, systematic and advanced knowledge teaching.
In the assembly line factory, each ant is only responsible for one or two ants. It is a simple process and does not require advanced knowledge. Four years is enough.
…
The Star Network passage is not a straight line and requires detours. The Little Dragon Cypress is not as fast as the Tapio.
Lu Dou and Cao Long arrived 10 years later. .
They began to move around and purchase raw metals.
The park factories have conducted some test operations successively.
The commander-in-chief of Star Shenao,
Ghost Fan, Xingyunbai, Zisha, and Linqi led a thousand people to master scientific and technological knowledge. Collaboration of Zerg warriors,
Ant colony coolies,
Tight fit, flawless.
Confirm it works.
Long Bai’s previous harvest on the Red Triton Star was the 500 billion he lent to the Boshuwan Chamber of Commerce in the form of source material gems, and he has been getting back the money. For more than 30,000 years, he has recovered 80 billion.
Long Bai and Mo Lan also had a balance of more than 10 billion after various extravagant expenses.
Long Bai’s account has 90 billion funds.
Start purchasing materials nearby and start production.
…
Ang Tianlian, Zichan, and Yuteng came looking for them.
Ang Tianlian is worthy of being an adventurer who has been wandering in the starry sky for millions of years. He has a strong and special network of relationships that is almost impossible for Long Bai and Mo Lan to come into contact with.
Two star artifacts were sold for a high price of 540 billion.
According to the agreement,
repay the arrears of 100 billion.
Longbai received 440 billion.
A large amount of funds were in place,
Lu Dou and Caolong set off on the Xiaolongbai and began to analyze market prices, inquire and contact various parties, and make large-scale purchases.
…
Qiming Bean is the slowest.
Dou Bean and his party arrived 60 years later.
Unload the goods,
and then set off to carry the ordered raw metal.
Materials of all colors are arriving one after another in large quantities.
At Longbai, the team of worker ants has begun to take shape, and pre-job training has been completed quickly, and the production factory is officially operational.
As time goes by, the ant colony continues to increase, and residential buildings and traffic streets are built, forming a high-density ground-based technology city.
Raw materials continue to come in, finished components continue to flow out of the factory, and large-scale warehouses are built for storage.
The construction project of the survival mothership Molan is on track.
Longbai leases three districts, 78,000 square kilometers of land, cities, factories, and warehouses, with a total area of less than 10,000 square kilometers.
As the number of ant colonies continues to increase to more than one million,
Other places are being developed into orchards, grain fields, livestock farms and breeding bases, achieving food self-sufficiency through high-density farming and breeding. .
Clear division of labor,
Star Shenao is in charge, Ghost Fan, Xingyunbai, Heiti and other insects assist in management. All work is being carried out in an orderly and efficient manner.
Long Bai doesn't need to get involved too much and has nothing to do. He goes into the deep space and focuses on the system's abilities.
…
[Time: 78th Epoch - 190 Yuan - 873 Years]
Under the background of the deep dark starry sky, Long Bai spreads his wings and floats motionless, and his body is black and full of energy. Hazy, thick and heavy, the membrane-winged purple gold originally shines, but its edge is restrained.
“Huh?”
Long Bai felt something strange, so he retracted his wings and looked quietly at the direction of the distant star system.
Within half a minute,
a colorful light spot flashed, and the space teleported closer.
Molan.
Throne of Glory.
The three insect groups of Baiwei, Hongtao, and Nandi...
To Long Bai's surprise, Zeqi and Luo Li also came.
And boss Lan Ying!
Why is this guy Zi here again?
“……”
After greeting each other for a while,
Long Bai asked: "Second King, are you here to inspect the work?"
Mo Lan said indifferently: "I came to see what level of cultivation you have reached."
Long Bai said truthfully: "I am imitating the power of the warriors of the Guiji tribe led by Qingyuan and Shixiao, and I have a clue. I need time to understand deeply."
Long Bai finished speaking. , looking towards Zi and Lan Ying.
Lan Ying explained: "Master Yiwei successfully obtained a white crystal fruit from the white crystal sacred tree. Zi and I sent it over immediately."
The space in front of Bai Wei wavered slightly, and a space-time The Rubik's Cube appears suspended in front of you.
“The white crystal fruit at the star level, Chief Longbai, look, are you or Mo Lan in a hurry to use it? If you need it in a hurry, take it first and just give me one back later.”
“...Don’t be in a hurry.”
“Thank you, President Bai Wei, for your kindness!”
Long Bai declined politely and thanked him politely.
The white crystal fruit at the star level only gives the most basic rebirth ability.
The white crystal fruit in the destination gives a higher level of 'reincarnation'.
It is difficult to improve the ability of the law,
The ability given by the white crystal fruit is directly fatal to exercise...
You need to constantly experience various deaths in different ways...
If you want to realize it independently and want to improve your rebirth ability to the level of reincarnation, you may need to experience thousands or tens of thousands of deaths. and rebirth.
This process makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Long Bai has never died even once in his life, and he never wants to die.
Long Bai and Mo Lan directly ate the white crystal fruit at the Sujing level, skipping this fatal exercise link.
"Then I'm not welcome."
Bai Wei was just polite, her ninth eyes glared, and she quickly packed her things back.
The space rippled,
Another lotus bud floated out.
Melaleuca.
The lotus petals, as thin as cicada wings, stretch out layer by layer. In the center of the lotus platform, there is an off-white seed only the size of a mung bean, with crystal-clear and translucent snow-white force lines.
Water and life dual-system original energy fluctuations.
God-given seeds!
White crystal god-given seeds!
And it’s not an ordinary white crystal tree.
Lan Ying looked solemn and solemnly introduced: "Chief Longbai, this is the god-given seed cultivated by our Holy Butterfly Tribe and the birth of Baijing No. 4524 tree species. The corresponding god-given seed will be given some guidance and guidance at the king level. Its ability to comprehend 'rebirth', starting from the star realm, can produce God-given force food that specifically strengthens the power of 'rebirth' and even 'reincarnation'."
"In addition, when the ability to comprehend reincarnation reaches a certain level. , you can also break away from the life seed and use the wild white crystal god-given seed to be reborn. For example, in this daylight sea arena battle, everyone has seen the combination of the domination realm white crystal god-given seed and the blue vein master reincarnation divine power, giving everyone the power of reincarnation. The participating warriors have a chance to be reborn.”
“For another example, the Flame Spider Tribe has only one Life Seed. They need it more.”
“The White Crystal Tree Seed No. 4524 is our Holy Butterfly Tribe’s species in the universe. The most important foundation for establishing a foothold is that the tribe has strict regulations. Common tree species are not allowed to escape and are only cultivated in the source star system that is strictly guarded. "
"However, our Holy Butterfly tribe has rules, as long as it comes from us. Those who have gained the ability to reincarnate will also have the opportunity to purchase a white crystal number 4524 God-given seed.”
Lan Ying paused and said: "As for the price...it's fixed at 30 billion raw crystals per crystal. Compared to its effects, this price is not an exaggeration to say it's a gift. We charge a symbolic fee for hard work."
"...It's not expensive~"
Long Bai understood the situation in front of him instantly.
The Baiwei Chamber of Commerce has recently purchased a cargo Star Spider. It has purchased a large number of Tianqing 42 Star Spiders for commercial use in interstellar travel. It owes hundreds of billions of installment loans and needs to repay them regularly. This white crystal god-given seed must be purchased, but there are not so many original crystals available for the time being.
Long Bai looked at Bai Wei.
Bai Wei asked tentatively: "Chief Longbai, can you borrow some?"
Longbai didn't talk nonsense, waved his tentacles to signal, opened the Star Network account, and transferred 30 billion to Lan Ying. .
"Okay!"
Lan Ying said simply: "Then Zi and I will have everything settled for this trip."
Long Bai looked at Zi.
Zi: "..."
Long Bai asked: "Zi, you didn't eat a white crystal fruit?"
"Of course you did."
Zi said depressedly: "It is also at the star level and needs to comprehend the power of reincarnation independently. Just after eating, Lord Yiwei gave an order that I should experience different types of death first..."
"Death by decapitation, death by piercing the head, death by high-temperature flames, death by freezing with frost power, death by electrocution and bombardment by various lightning powers... He kept dying in different ways, and after dying a thousand times in a row, the insect almost collapsed. "
"Uh-"
Bai Wei couldn't stand it and asked: "So, what's the effect? Zi, how is your ability improved?"
Zi: "It has a little effect, and I can understand a little bit of the power of 'death'."
Bai Wei: "That's okay..."
Zi: "Through continuous real death, I understand the power of death, which is an offensive power derived from the ability to reborn. Master Yiwei is guiding me to integrate this power into the 'Purple Sun' and evolve it into something similar but completely different from the 'Sea of Sinking' Ability."
Mo Lan's eyes shone and asked enthusiastically: "So, Zi, how is your 'Purple Sun' ability?"
Zi hesitated for a moment, then flapped her wings slightly, and her body disintegrated into thousands of red, purple and black butterflies, flapping their wings away from the insects.
The butterfly swarm exploded to form a cloud of white smoke, which spread into a large area of mist.
In the smoke, a purple-red sun was formed, emitting light and heat. Countless purple butterflies flew out of the purple sun, danced, and exploded.
——An attack evolved from the ability of the Umbrella Bird.
Then,
Countless purple high-energy beams burst out, hitting the dark deep space.
——The attack ability of light talent.
The next moment, all the light suddenly disappeared, endless darkness enveloped the space, and the star system that was not far away was missing.
——Dark Rose.
In the dark and weightless environment, the gloomy power of death pervades.
——The power of death.
It lasted for two or three seconds,
The purple sun lit up again, and then exploded and disappeared. Zi's figure appeared and flickered back to the insects.
"I just started practicing the light system and the power of death not long ago, and I haven't even understood the Sunken Sea. Now I can only do it to this level, and it's not even a half-finished product."
Zi sighed: "It's too difficult. . According to Lan Ying, it takes at least three thousand years of meditation to achieve some success. "
"It's pretty awesome!"
"Three thousand years to achieve some success, then eighty thousand years. You will be stable in the next daylight sea arena battle!"
"Water and fire dual elements? That will make up for the two fatal flaws of Sunken Sea's single water element being easy to restrain and lacking in attack power."
"Zi, let me teach you, and then integrate the source fire ability into it, it will be awesome!"
"Do you have the source fire ability? You learn the flame ability that Mo Lan used against the Blue Blood Dragon Li, and you will be good at it!" , there will definitely be no problem in reaching the top 300."
"..."
It can be seen that Zi's 'Purple Sun' ability is very promising, and the insects will help come up with ideas. .
Seeing that everyone’s theoretical level was not high, Lan Ying couldn’t help but said:
"President Bai Wei, as well as Chief Long Bai, I think it is necessary to explain to you in a systematic way about 'rebirth' and 'reincarnation'."
"The essence of basic 'rebirth' is Through the soul bond, using the life seed as the carrier, leaving one's own 'life information' on the life seed, leaving a 'cocoon' as a 'spare tire'. After the body dies, the spare tire starts, the cocoon develops, and emerges. Rebirth. "
"Reincarnation is complicated. The secret of reincarnation lies in the recognition and practice of 'self'.
"It can be roughly divided into three stages: In the first stage, 'I' is confined to the Force life body composed of body, soul and the Force. At this stage, at most, 'I' information can only be Live in the life seed and be reborn with the help of the life seed. "
"The second stage is to liberate 'my' existence from the life form of the Force, break away from the constraints of the body and soul, and use water as the medium to transform myself. The specific manifestation of the existence of integrating into the natural world of the living planet is that it can break away from the limitations of life and achieve reincarnation with the help of rivers, lakes and oceans. ”
"Further, it can be expanded to other substances besides water, and beyond the limitations of water, it can be reincarnated and reborn as desired in the world of life."
"The third stage is to extend the existence of 'I' to the universe, and at the same time The laws of the universe coexist. As long as the universe is immortal, the existence of 'I' will never disappear. Currently, only the reincarnation master of our Holy Butterfly tribe has reached this state. The White Crystal Divine Tree has only understood a little bit. , failed to fully reach this level.”
——Isn’t it too mysterious?
The insects were a little confused and had only a half-understanding.
Bai Wei asked tentatively: "Then, Boss Lan Ying, you mean that the Lord of Reincarnation cannot die no matter what? Unless the entire universe is destroyed?"
"That's roughly what it means, but it's not absolutely..."
Lan Ying said: "There are many tyrannical forces in the universe that can erase the existence of 'I'. The divine power of reincarnation is not unsolvable and can still be killed. Dead."
"What power?"
"Demigod?"
"No. The third stage still belongs to the realm of dominance."
"What about going further?"
"I don't know."
"..."
Things that are too far away and profound, Lan Ying only knows theoretical knowledge and cannot explain the details.
The insects chatted for a while, then
Mo Lan raised her paw and pointed far away, asking: "Chief Long Bai, are the motherships being assembled over there?"
Long Bai: "Yes. The power system and raw energy conversion equipment are already in place."
When the insects heard this, their eyes lit up and they were full of energy.
Long Bai greeted: "Boss Lan Ying, President Zi, President Zeqi, and President Luo Li, you are here for a rare visit. I will take you to visit the survival mothership that is under construction!"
"Then you must go and see it!"
Lan Ying said happily: "I have seen survival motherships, but I have never thought of how such a behemoth with such a complex structure could be built. It is hard to imagine."
“Actually, it’s not that complicated.”
Long Bai greeted: “Let’s go! Let’s visit together!”
…
In the planetary orbit 150 million kilometers away from the star, the metal ball that has not yet been completely built orbits the sun, parallel to the Hunan star, and also on the star network channel. A simple zero-level cargo Star Spider can handle the task of component transportation.
Gui Fan and Zisha are commanding 400 technology bugs, busy both inside and outside.
The core power and raw energy conversion device of the survival mothership has been put in place. It is necessary to use metal plates that block the flow of raw energy to assemble and build a spherical-shaped 'protective cover'.
Metal plates of standard shapes and sizes are spliced together according to prefabricated serial numbers, and then the Zerg warriors use their metal abilities to fuse them into one.
It is double-layered both inside and outside. Currently, only the inner layer is under construction. I don’t see how difficult it is.
There is a 100-meter gap between the inner and outer layers, which houses ultra-complex precision components and system components.
After completion, the entire ball is a 1,400-meter-diameter ball located in the center of the mothership, driving the heart of the mothership.
Long Bai knew something about it, but he didn’t have the time or energy to study it carefully. He called Gui Fan and Zisha over to lead the tour and explain it to everyone.
To build a big thing with a diameter of 10 kilometers, many tasks must be done by Zerg warriors who have relevant knowledge and abilities. The current 1,000 technology bugs are far from enough, and the project progress is very slow.
It is predicted that it will take at least three hundred years to be completed.
After a brief tour,
the insects returned to Hunan Star, North 6578 District, introduced to Star Sinnoh, visited the science and technology city, and held a grand welcome banquet.
"President Bai Wei, how is the progress of the interstellar trade route in the Honeysuckle star system?"
Long Bai asked.
Bai Wei replied: "The trade route has been planned, and shops and strongholds have been initially built. I, Hongtao, Zeqi, Zhuban, Nandi, Heihuahuai and Xingyunyou, we went together and visited The large and small tribes that can be visited along the way are as expected. These tribal forces have been developing for some years, and their sales and procurement channels for force food have been fixed for a long time and are not easy to change. This kind of star field has been developed for a long time and has become stable in all aspects. , we can only boil it slowly and accumulate insect veins bit by bit.”
Bai Wei said: "Zuzan and Heihuai stayed there to take charge of affairs. Chief Longbai, you also need to take time to go there and establish the branch nest."
Mo Lan strongly agreed. Said: "Yes. Yes. The mothership is completed, the project is successfully obtained, and you enter a new field. There are all kinds of things that are too busy to finish, and you have no time."
Long Bai: "What the two kings said makes sense. I'll go there as soon as possible..."
Long Bai looked at Luo Li and asked strangely: "President Luo Li, is there anything good you can do?"
Luo Li Quinoa: "I got some news. The five source points, which are located about 1,400 light-years away from the Alpaca star system and about 1,700 light-years away from the Ironwood star system, are located in remote areas and are distributed in clusters. They will be synchronized as the same project. Construction begins.”
"These five source points were all discovered by Tao Zitiao Jiding, one is a first-level source point, and the other four are zero-level source points. Among them, the ownership and operation rights of the first-level source point and two zero-level source points The rights belong to the Taozitiao Jiding Tribe. The permanent management rights of the two zero-level source points are transferred to the Luohe Chamber of Commerce. In exchange, the Luohe Chamber of Commerce needs to fully fund the construction of all five source point star systems."
“This is a big deal, a big project! According to the usual practice, the Eichhornia constellation sends the senior management of the evolutionary level realm and the chamber of commerce’s position level 16 or above to take charge.”
“No way out. Unexpectedly, these five source points should be under the jurisdiction of the Sheepshoe star system. By then, the engineering headquarters will be located in the Sheepshoe star system business district."
"I will follow you to confirm whether you are capable. Build the 'Molan Survival Mothership'. If so, when will it be completed? If I can make it, I will spend some time and find out the relevant information. If possible, Long Bai, I will introduce you."
“Got it!”
Long Bai was overjoyed and said: "Then I'll trouble President Luo Li..."
The banquet is not just a small talk, everyone discusses the affairs of the chamber of commerce.
It is good to have senior management in the seventh-level chamber of commerce to respond internally.
The survival mothership has just started construction, and there is news about the corresponding engineering work.
…
The banquet was over,
Lan Ying took Zi in her arms and said goodbye.
Long Bai and Bai Wei went to the Honeysuckle star system. (End of this chapter)
