Chapter 358: S: The Radiant Great Event (Part 33)

Unscrupulous... Why the few members of the Radiant Alliance, plus Steve and Peter, came to the Andromeda Galaxy, has to start from the recent developments in the Solar System.

Since starting to build the Mercury base, Stark began to click on the infrastructure skill tree. First, due to the future planning and development of Mercury, it will be a fully automated energy collection base. The first thing to do is automation.

Programming is a piece of cake for Stark. He created an extremely complex robot logic network and made adaptive adjustments to different types of robots based on this network, and then integrated them into the building to become integrated machinery. This solved the troublesome problems of robot energy, damage repair, etc.

The second is nano-folding and unfolding technology. The nano-armor Schiller gave him before had been studied back and forth by Stark. Although it cannot reach this folding rate for the time being, it can already fold most large machinery into the range that transport robots can carry.

The next thing is even simpler. The mage opens a portal, the transport robot moves things in, and Stark starts to control it here with a huge screen.

The specific process is actually like playing some pipeline construction games: find mining points, place mining machines, place smelting machines, place assembly machines, then set up pipelines, form factories, optimize efficiency...

With the technology of folding large machinery, it is completely possible to do as in the game. Stark clicks on the screen on Earth, the construction robots on Mercury are in place, and a large machine unfolds directly.

Of course, because this technology is not mature enough, there is a risk of explosion when unfolding, so it cannot be used on Earth, but Mercury doesn't matter. If it explodes, just build another one.

The initial explosion probability was a bit high, so Stark began to click on the recycling system skill tree. He modified the large machinery to be unfolded, making the explosion range completely controllable, and then recycled the exploded materials. The recycling rate could reach more than 80%, and in the end, it even increased to more than 98%, which is approximately equal to demolition and reconstruction for free.

Then, Stark cooperated with technical consultants from Far Eastern countries to start setting up logistics systems between bases, such as elevated roads and high-speed railways, and then the very cumbersome wiring and other processes.

If this were an ordinary person playing a game, their brain might be burned out by now, but for Stark, it was not a problem at all. With the assistance of Jarvis, the super-intelligence, the Mercury base was soon built quite decently.

But the problem appeared again. The Mercury base was to experiment with how to extract solar energy. Staying on Mercury is not enough. It must approach the star. But every time it approaches the star by one point, the temperature increases exponentially. Ordinary metals simply cannot withstand the high temperature of the sun. Some important equipment must use Vibranium and Vibranium alloys.

Recently, this black sheep Wakanda has almost been plucked bald by Stark. But even if Wakanda is willing to participate in the construction of the Solar System and is happy to increase the importance of Vibranium, the mining technology is there. They haven't mined much after so many years. Even if you are in a hurry, you can't conjure it out of thin air.

Stark also knows that you can't keep plucking wool from one sheep. Moreover, this kind of non-renewable resource really needs to be used sparingly.

Thus, the development of the Solar System is once again constrained by materials. And Stark also knows that to achieve a technological leap, burying his head in clicking material resistance is really too slow. Instead of spending a few years grinding a wooden stick into a spear, it is better to find iron and gunpowder to make a gun directly.

Very coincidentally, the Sulfur Dwarves happen to be a race that can extract energy from their own stars. According to the symbiotes, the reason why this race developed better than other races and could develop its own independent technical system also relies on a special metal in their star system, which the dwarves call Molten Steel.

In addition, the Andromeda Zerg also possess cave clusters with very good light transmission and heat preservation properties. The territories of the High Elves and the Totem Spirits both have materials with high magical affinity, which are just suitable for the mages to build fixed portals.

"Humans have come from thousands of miles away to the Andromeda Galaxy to overthrow the evil coalition Speaker and return a fair blue sky to the people of Andromeda. Even if it is peacekeeping, we have to collect some wear and tear fees, right?"

"We don't even want money, just a little mining right. How much ore can an ordinary surface civilization mine?"

"Look, don't the Sulfur Dwarves have no opinion?"

Schiller sat on the sofa in the Speaker's Mansion of the coalition civilization and said, taking a sip of the local specialty fruit wine.

Strange rolled his eyes and said: "I guess, as long as they agree, you will immediately drive a spaceship to mine, and you won't stop until you fill the warehouse..."

"How is that possible? If we open it, Peter will open it. Flying a spaceship is not as interesting as I imagined, so forget it."

At this time, Magneto and Charles walked in one after another. Schiller turned to look at them and asked with a smile: "How is the new home?"

"Very good." Charles was obviously very satisfied.

After all, this sky island is first-class in terms of location, structure, and environment. That selfish Speaker has done nothing else for so many years but scrape precious resources and technology from everywhere to use in his private garden.

The entire sky island was built by him into a paradise with a beautiful environment and abundant resources. The mutants are equivalent to directly seizing a wealthy man's private manor. Of course, they will be very satisfied.

Moreover, compared to a whole complete planet, this sky island, which is only half the size of Earth, is easier to defend. At least Magneto's magnetic field can completely cover this place.

Earth can fit billions of people, while there are only a few million mutants. Living here can be called sparsely populated.

Schiller was also very satisfied with this, because Charles's next sentence was: "Of course, there are still many problems with the construction here, such as not enough houses, not enough infrastructure, and no clue about town planning..."

"Don't worry, you don't have to move here tomorrow. You can plan everything on Earth and take a few years to slowly transform this place into the mutants' dream home."

"Actually, this is the problem." Charles revealed a somewhat embarrassed expression and said: "Although the individual abilities of mutants are very powerful, in terms of construction, we are really..."

"Beast gave a plan, but there is no clue about the raw materials and the way the project is carried out. This sounds simple, but it is actually a very large project. And once it is not planned well, there may be a big mess in the future..."

"Don't worry, Earth's blood transfusion does not mean providing raw materials, but providing technology and ideas. In terms of base construction, Stark can completely handle it. Didn't you see the construction speed of the Mercury base a few days ago?"

Charles nodded and said: "That can indeed be called a miracle. However, we also have to consider some aesthetics. You know, this is where people live after all, and it cannot be turned into a robot factory."

"Don't worry, Nick has already sent invitations to the world's most famous landscape masters, as well as several professors of environmental art majors teaching at world-famous universities. They will provide you with the most suitable environmental transformation plan."

"In addition, you can also use local materials. You have already seen the appearance of the Speaker's Mansion. This special material is on the planets in the star system. The Zerg have just sent a communication to thank us for exposing the conspiracy of the coalition civilization Speaker and stated that their civilization suffered the most serious losses in this fleet destruction."

"If the mutants can guarantee their safety, they are willing to give up two mining planets on the edge of the star system, which can directly provide you with ready-made mineral products."

"The leader of the High Elves also intends to negotiate. They want to exchange some of their technology for our technology. They lag behind other civilizations in engineering manufacturing, especially in the control of electricity and magnetism. Perhaps they can exchange something good from them."

"The Totem Spirits are a pure elemental race, which has nothing to do with mutants. But if they trade with mages, you can also ask the mages to see if they can exchange for some enchanted items."

"In short, this is the benefit of the prosperous area. Everything can be traded, and all parties can communicate with each other and make progress together."

"Even compared to Earth, this place is more suitable for development. Earth is more like a remote no-man's land, where everything has to be mined by yourself."

Charles agreed deeply. In these few days, he watched Stark click on the skill tree fiercely. To be honest, he felt that Stark had tried his best, but he was still constrained by various resources and had to be stingy, calculating every bit of resources and using them on the blade.

Even if Stark's wisdom is full, he still has to run thousands of miles to the Andromeda Galaxy to pull ore back.

Looking at it this way, the mutants have simply picked up a huge bargain. The core star sector of the Andromeda Nebula has perfect facilities and written interstellar regulations, which is very suitable for the survival of intelligent creatures, especially kind to neutral creatures.

After Magneto left, Charles sighed. He picked up the cup and took a sip of fruit wine, then asked: "With such a good place, are you so willing to give it to the mutants?"

"It's not giving it to the mutants. We are all humans, at least we are all part of human civilization. You are the first step for humans to move towards the stars, the vanguard and the pioneers."

"Perhaps you are thinking, with such good resources, why don't ordinary people move here? Even if they can't move all of them, moving a part of them here can be considered interstellar colonization. But things are not that simple."

"Now you think the Zerg, the High Elves, and the Totem Spirits are very friendly. That's because the mutants are strong enough."

"The leaders of these civilizations have more or less guessed Magneto's ability. They are wary of the mutants' powerful individual force. Compared to forcing you into a corner, cooperation is a better method."

"But if ordinary humans came here, our strength and technological level would not be enough to suppress the scene. At that time, these seemingly kind alien civilizations would reveal their fangs, and they would tear humans apart completely."

"This is the rule of interstellar society, survival of the fittest, the law of the jungle. Humans are far from being able to step onto the interstellar stage."

"Alright." Schiller changed the subject and said: "What about that Kree descendant? It's time to talk about the ten spaceships the Kree owe us..."

The history of the three great empires has also been basically rewritten. I have been scolding and writing the outline all week.

The author's mental journey of writing the outline:

Look at the original setting... why is it so little?... Maybe it can be used if I change it... Damn, what is this... what is this again... Did the editor get water in their brain?!... How the hell do I change this... Forget it, rewrite it.
