Chapter 359: S: The Radiant Great Event (Part 34)

~11 min read 2,106 words

After a cordial and friendly conversation with the Kree descendant Peian, Peian successfully added a heavy stroke to the Kree's debt with his bad attitude.

The process need not be repeated. Anyway, by the time the conversation ended, the total number of spaceships the Kree owed humans had reached more than 150, and there was a clear IOU.

Steve became the representative of human civilization, responsible for diplomatic activities in the Andromeda Galaxy together with Charles. Stark, Peter, and Magneto were responsible for mineral mining.

Once Charles's agreement was reached, they started working directly with the spaceship. The mining weapons carried on the spaceship cooperated with the magnetism of Magneto and Polaris. It could maximize mining efficiency. Simply put, it could empty a planet within a few days.

Oh, right, can't forget the Sulfur Dwarf civilization that was once the most developed in this star system. After the black hole explosion, how was their civilization?

Because the core star sector of Andromeda has a very livable environment, Magneto deliberately used a magnetic field to protect this part when guiding the super black hole explosion jet.

However, the Sulfur Dwarf civilization is relatively far from the core star sector, but it is closer to the super black hole, so they didn't have such good luck as other civilizations.

The Sulfur Dwarves control more than 1,500 resource planets. Most of the planets in the star sector they rule produce Molten Steel, and the planets that do not produce Molten Steel are mostly gas giants that provide auxiliary resources.

Because this star sector is too close to the super black hole, after the black hole produced the jet, all the armed fleets of the Sulfur Dwarves were wiped out, and hundreds of planets on the path of the jet were all annihilated.

"Rebirth of the Surging Great Era"

What's more fatal is that the stars in the two star sectors where their population is most concentrated all extinguished because of this cosmic disaster.

Originally, the planets where most of the Sulfur Dwarves lived had very high surface temperatures because they were too close to the stars, most of them around 500 degrees. The race evolved in this environment has a very high resistance to high temperature. They can move physically in an environment of several hundred degrees without feeling uncomfortable.

But at the same time, this is a race that is heat-resistant but not cold-resistant. Because their origin and the planets they colonized later were all high-temperature planets, they had not experienced the extreme cold after the sun extinguished. Therefore, this densely populated star sector died more than half of its population within about 10 days.

Actually, logically speaking, the population should not have plummeted so quickly, but what is more fatal is that the Sulfur Dwarves are a race that completely relies on stellar energy. Their civilization development level is very high, and the technology to extract energy from stars is also very perfect. Therefore, all the energy connected to the facilities on their planets is energy extracted from stars. All equipment cores, lines, and pipes are adapted stellar energy extractors.

After the sun extinguished, all facilities on their planets that needed to use energy stopped, including facilities for adjusting oxygen and rare gases.

The reason why Sulfur Dwarves are called Sulfur Dwarves is because they need to breathe a special gas with a sulfur smell. This can greatly enhance their physical fitness and let them produce "Molten Fire Energy" that increases strength.

If they don't breathe this gas, although they won't die, they will fall into decline. Coupled with the extreme cold in the universe, within just a few days, the entire civilization completely collapsed.

Because the fleet was destroyed, they didn't have large spaceships to mine resources on gas planets. The resources on their home planet were still abundant, but the technology to mine home planet resources had long been lost in countless technical iterations. They had those advanced high-power equipment, but they didn't even have a generator that could provide the most basic electrical energy.

The drawbacks of civilization developing too fast and relying too much on special materials were undoubtedly revealed at this moment. After losing energy and armament, within just a few days, the fire of civilization had already extinguished.

Stark, who witnessed all this, had no sympathy, but he became vigilant. Such a tragedy cannot be repeated in human civilization. The speed of development and the breadth of development are equally important.

But vigilance is vigilance. The Radiant Alliance found a planet with the most abundant mineral resources in the center of the star sector ruled by the Sulfur Dwarves, and then built an energy hub that could provide heat there.

The power of this hub is not high, but it is very bright. It can almost be said to be a beacon in the universe.

The three planets in this week are not far from each other. After the star extinguished, the planets fell into endless eternal night. And at this time, a shining star appeared in the night sky, and the Sulfur Dwarves of course saw it.

At this time, human justice disaster relief ships arrived in time.

Human civilization, as a kind and fair civilization among cosmic civilizations, expressed deep sympathy and regret for the encounter of the Sulfur Dwarves. At the same time, human civilization happened to build an energy hub on the adjacent planet that could provide the heat and gas required for the survival of the Sulfur Dwarves, and it was currently open for immigration.

Generally speaking, humans only accept noble investment immigration, but now the situation is special. Based on the principle of saving and reasonably resettling disaster-stricken people, human immigration ships also accept labor immigration. Simply put, as long as you can mine, you can get on the ship.

At this time, the Sulfur Dwarves had passed the panic period of population plummeting. What they thought was to do everything possible to survive. Although many people were very resistant and wanted to stay to rebuild the home planet, more people chose the fastest way to survive, which was to board the human thief... immigration ship.

The energy core built by the Radiant Alliance is also very particular. Its heat radiation range is a circle, which means you must live within this circle so you won't freeze to death.

But human civilization is so backward, and a large amount of Molten Steel mineral products can only be converted into negligible heat. If you don't work hard to mine, the range of heat radiation will become smaller and smaller, and the dwarves living on the outer circle will freeze to death.

Of course, the closer to the core, the higher the heat, and the more stable it is. But in order not to shrink the circle to their own position, the dwarves began to exploit layer by layer.

People in the inner circle exploited people in the outer circle, and people in the outer circle exploited people in the further outer circle, hoping to squeeze out all their labor, so that the heat energy circle would expand larger and larger, so that they would be safer and safer.

The plan put forward by the few people in the Radiant Alliance whose moral bottom line had been tested made humans not even need to wave their own whips, and this group of Sulfur Dwarves would point their butcher knives at their own clansmen.

But people in the outer circle were not slaughtered either. They worked hard, but made people in the inner circle live better and better. They were oppressed, but the results were enjoyed by people in the inner circle. Within just a few days, riots made the entire race bleed like a river.

At this time, humans very wisely and generously opened the upward channel. As long as your performance is good enough, you can replace the people in the inner circle and live in the position they live in. On the contrary, if your performance is poor, you can only go to the outer circle where it is cold and hot and the supply is cut off every day.

It's not that the Radiant Alliance wants to use human mining so troublesomely, it's just that Molten Steel is a very special metal that requires the Sulfur Dwarf race to use their unique Molten Fire Energy to conduct it to the pickaxe to be able to mine it. Therefore, they can only temporarily wrong the Sulfur Dwarves to be miners for a period of time. Revitalizing civilization, it is normal for the contemporary people to suffer a little.

After the major civilizations of Andromeda were relieved of all armaments, they almost no longer had the conditions to leave the surface. Therefore, the initiative was completely in the hands of humans. And after several meetings of the Radiant Alliance, most of the policies were determined and then executed. After a very short period of time, the situation in the star system returned to stability.

Symbiote Blue Spirit was also very moved. In his long life, he had seen countless forms of civilization, but the wisdom shown by humans in sociology and relationship studies was still in the forefront.

They can accurately find the key points in complex relationships, and can also seek the greatest degree of benefits for themselves in chaotic situations. Although this has something to do with the flexible moral bottom line of several people in the Radiant Alliance, more of it is that humans have spent too many skill points on struggle over the years.

After the Andromeda star system matter came to an end, Peter, Steve, and Charles, the three people whose moral bottom lines had not been tested, stayed there to continue spreading the gospel of humanity.

Stark came back because the construction of the Solar System could not do without him. The mining was finished, and the next step was rapid construction. Stark had to keep an eye on it.

Strange came back because the business of the Sanctum Sanctorum was too busy, and he had to keep an eye on it himself.

Schiller came back because he still had a mess to clean up, which was the family affairs of Asgard.

In the office of Arkham Asylum, Loki sat opposite Schiller. After she took off her hood, the layers of halos behind her were a bit dazzling. Schiller blinked and took out a medical record. Loki stared at the medical record and said: "I see you have been writing it recently, what is this?"

"This is your medical record."

"Mine? What illness do I have? Am I not fine?" Loki asked with some confusion.

"Your Asgardian psychological research is approximately equal to zero, so none of you think you have mental illness, but in my opinion, every one of you is quite sick."

Loki pursed her lips. She wanted to refute, but didn't know how to speak. Schiller began to count one by one: "Thor's previous performance may have some tendencies of mania, Hela is the same, you have emotional disorders, and should also have anxiety..."

"I..."

"Let's talk about how these mental illnesses of yours were produced first."

"But I don't have..."

"Every mental patient thinks they are not sick."

Schiller turned the pen in his hand. He made a gesture to calm down and said: "Alright, let's assume you are sick, just assume."

"First of all, I think the cause of your mental illness is very likely to be long-term discrimination and bullying. The group environment of Asgard is very exclusive to you, which has increased your mental pressure, thereby causing your mental development to be deformed..."

Just after Schiller finished speaking, a halo lit up behind Loki with a "zeng" sound. Loki looked at her back in some confusion and said: "I've been wanting to ask, what's going on with these halos?"

Seeing this, Schiller smiled, as if he had discovered that his premonition had come true. He said: "You said before that the first halo appeared when you turned into a woman, the second halo appeared when Hela knew you had turned into a woman and still chased you, and the third halo appeared when Hela and Balder had a conflict because of you..."

Loki's expression was still a bit confused. He didn't find any pattern in this at all. Schiller said: "Just now, I diagnosed your mental illness, just doing an experiment, and now it seems that the result of the experiment is the same as I expected..."

"So, what are these halos?"

"You can call them, 'Political Correctness Halos'." ===== CHAPTER 360 =====
