446 Assembly
"Does anyone know what projects the solar system civilization is working on? Their future technology company has recently been sweeping the entire galaxy. It is said that they have spent more than [-] million galactic coins, which is unimaginable."

"Facts have proved that there is a reason why the solar system can become a third-level civilization so quickly. The strongest star destroyer in the galaxy has just been manufactured, and now a new project has started."

"I suspect that the project they are carrying out this time is more powerful than the Shenwei Star Destroyer."

"Anyway, I'm looking forward to it."

"No matter what the solar system is studying, it is not harmful to the Milky Way. Everyone just wait patiently."

"The title of the strongest civilization in the Milky Way may now belong to the civilization of the solar system."

"I always feel that this time things are not as we thought. If it is really a solar system project, how can a private company come forward to purchase various resources? I hope it will surprise me by then."

……

Orion's spiral arm.

Herald.

In the Pioneer Palace, where only members of the royal family are eligible to live, Mesti flipped through the statements made by individuals from various civilizations on the open platform of the Galactic Civilization Administration.

His expression gradually became complicated, with mixed feelings in his heart.

When he was an ordinary bishop-level pioneer, in order to expand the reproduction area of ​​the pioneer civilization, he set his mind on the solar system.

And launched several invasion wars against the planets in the solar system.

However, every time he returned home in a big defeat.

In the end, it was overtaken by the solar system and captured the pioneer star in one fell swoop.

In order to ensure the inheritance of the pioneer civilization and prevent it from being completely cut off and wiped out, he finally chose to stand on the front line of human civilization and helped the solar system control the pioneer star, making the pioneer empire a subsidiary force of the solar system civilization.

It has been 23 years since today.

In the beginning, he was undoubtedly deeply cast aside by his own people.

Accused him of betraying the Herald Empire.

Although the Third Fleet of the Human Security Alliance helped control the situation, he was firmly seated as the manager of the Herald Empire.

But it's really no different from a puppet.

But as the saying goes, there is no turning back. Since he made a decision at the beginning, he can only go to the dark one way, not to mention that at least he can keep the pioneer empire.

But as time went by, he found that many of the things he worried about hadn't happened.

For example, the pioneers will be oppressed by the civilization of the solar system.

Or downright slavery.

On the contrary, the Human Security Alliance gave their pioneer stars enough respect and freedom, and carried out in-depth cooperation in many aspects, and even spent a lot of Galaxy coins to invest in the pioneer stars.

Help pioneers build new homes.

Under such circumstances, many pioneers have given up their previous hatred.

Slowly accept the present peaceful and stable life.

In particular, the civilization of the solar system has developed extremely fast. In just a few decades, it has grown from a weak civilization that had no resistance to the Herald Empire fleet to a rare third-level civilization in the Milky Way, and it has also faintly stabilized the Milky Way. The throne of the strongest civilization.

Even the pioneer star as an affiliated civilization enjoys great convenience.

This made Mesti feel more and more that the choice he made was extremely correct.

At least they no longer have to worry about danger coming.

After all, the reason why the pioneers took risks to invade weak civilizations was also to save themselves.

And this time, the future technology under the solar system civilization has made such a big move, and it has aroused such great enthusiasm in the entire galaxy, he can't pay attention to it.

The key point is that others may not know the details of future technology, but he does.

Knowing that Future Technology is the company of the current Inspector.

Although he didn't know what Future Technology wanted to do this time, he didn't dare to carry anything.

Almost as soon as he received news about the future technology, he held an emergency meeting in the Herald Palace and mobilized a large amount of Compound No. [-] in stock.

It is worth mentioning that the so-called No. [-] compound is the greatest scientific and technological achievement of the Pioneer Empire. It is no exaggeration to say that it supports nearly half of the galaxy currency foreign exchange of the entire civilization, and it is stably supplied to more than a dozen civilizations in the galaxy every year.

Because this compound acts like a catalyst, it can make the synthesized material have better performance.

Whether it is the manufacture of battleships or the particle neutralization shields and energy shield boosters of the solar system, they cannot do without this special compound.

So much so that in addition to the share of the solar system that the pioneers have to deliver, all the rest will be sold to other civilizations, and this kind of goods will be used to earn a lot of galaxy coins.

This time, Future Technology suddenly carried out research on a new project, and naturally the use of Compound No. [-] was indispensable.

At this moment, when Mesti was going to watch the hot news on the open platform, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in."

Mesti responded casually when she heard the sound, and then temporarily looked away and looked in the direction of the door.

After seeing that it was his confidant subordinate who came in, he immediately took the initiative to ask: "How is the preparation of the No. [-] compound? Can our remaining inventory meet the needs of future technology?"

"Don't worry, Archbishop."

"Our current remaining inventory of Compound VI just meets the needs of future technology."

The ambassador-level pioneer who came in didn't dare to hesitate in the face of Mesti's inquiry, and quickly answered truthfully.

There is another point that needs to be explained.

After Mesti took control of the pioneer empire with the support of the solar system civilization, he did not replace his father, the old king, but regarded himself as the archbishop.

Anyway, his power comes from the Alliance Third Fleet stationed in the Pioneer Star, not the Pioneer Empire itself.

So no matter what his identity is, it will not affect his management of the empire.

Mosti listened to his subordinate's words, and he finally let go of his original concern. The main reason was that he was really worried that the stock of No. [-] compound was insufficient, and he would offend Future Technology and indirectly make Xu Lei unhappy. .

So without delay, he immediately ordered: "Since the inventory is sufficient, then quickly move it to the transport ship and send it to Titan Star."

But not long after the words fell, he realized that something was wrong.

Because his confidant did not move.

His face darkened in an instant, and he asked in a cold tone: "Why, do you want me to say it again? When did you stop listening to me?"

"My subordinates dare not."

The ambassador-level pioneer on the opposite side quickly leaned over to plead guilty.

At this time, Mesti also noticed that the other party seemed to have something unspeakable, and his face looked obviously unnatural, which was completely different from his usual expression.

Under such circumstances, Mesti didn't know what to think, and repeated again: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Although the Pioneer Star is under the supervision of the Alliance's Third Fleet, here my words are the highest order."

Perhaps because of Mesti's assurance, the ambassador-level herald was no longer silent.

Then he told Mesti the specific situation truthfully.

"It belongs to such an archbishop. Many bishop-level pioneers are quite critical of the transfer of all stocks to Future Technology this time. They think that we have given enough compounds to the Human Security Alliance this year and should not be sold to Future Technology."

"This will harm the interests of the pioneer empire." When he said the last sentence, his voice was significantly lower.

As for Mesti, after hearing these words, she almost wanted to kill someone.

He knew exactly what those old guys were planning.

Due to the affiliation of the Herald Empire to the solar system, the Human Security Alliance only needs to pay a small amount of galactic coins for transporting various resources to the solar system.

But if it is sold to other civilizations, the price will increase exponentially.

They have already delivered the No. [-] compound to the Human Security Alliance this year, mainly for the manufacture of Kamikaze and Kamui battleships. Now that future technology has stepped in, they have lost a lot of Galaxy coins virtually.

It's normal for some elders to complain.

But the point is that they never had the right to negotiate with the solar system.

Not to mention the consequences.

"It's all short-sighted guys, bastards!"

Mesti, whose chest was instantly occupied by anger, subconsciously stood up and cursed, obviously very angry.

But before he calmed down a bit, he heard his confidant say again: "The archbishop, they are waiting outside right now, saying that they will personally persuade you to cancel the deal with Future Technology."

"Well, that's really good."

Hearing that those guys dared to come over, Mesti almost laughed angrily, and immediately sat down again and shouted: "Let them all come in, I want to hear what kind of opinions they have today. "

It is not easy for the Pioneer Empire to be stable until now under his leadership. If the dispute is restarted due to some personal factors, then the entire empire will not even know how it died.

In order to completely prevent this kind of thing from happening, he had to beat it hard.

He even resorted to harsh measures when necessary.

"It's the Archbishop."

The ambassador-level pioneer saw Mesti making such a big fuss, so how could he dare to be negligent in the slightest.

After nodding in response, he quickly went to call out to the elders outside.

Soon.

Then I saw several pioneers who looked a little old stepped in.

They were all subordinates of the old king. Although they were not members of the royal family, they had survived as bishop-level pioneers for several epochs, and they were the real elders of the empire.

When the Alliance Fleet of the Solar System captured the Pioneer Star, their survival depended on Mastili.

After all, at that time, the most important thing was to stabilize the situation first.

Perhaps it was because the Pioneer Empire had been peaceful for too many years and had lost its previous sense of urgency. These elders didn't give Mose much face, and they couldn't help expressing their opinions as soon as they came to the front.

"I said Archbishop, this year's inventory has obviously been given to them for the solar system, why do we need so much now?"

"Selling to the solar system, we can only get [-]% of the galaxy coins, which will cause a very large loss, and must be considered in the long run."

"In my opinion, we should directly reject the demand for future technology. Anyway, our obligation has been fulfilled. There is no need to lose so many Galaxy coins for a technology company under the solar system civilization. This is not conducive to our own development."

"At the beginning, our pioneer star signed a contract with the human security alliance of the solar system, but it has nothing to do with any future technology."

"That's right, since they want our No. [-] compound, they must offer the same price as other civilizations, otherwise it won't work."

"For the sake of the Human Security Alliance, we can take out Compound Six, but at most half of it."

……

Seeing that the whole room became very lively, at this moment, Mesti forced himself to listen to the words, and temporarily suppressed the anger that was constantly emerging in his heart, before he spoke: "Have you finished all your words?"

"Then now I really want to know, who gave you all the courage to say these words openly!"

Although Mesti's words were very calm, with only a questioning tone mixed in, the veterans who were present were somewhat confused.

I wondered why this was different from what I expected.

On the other hand, Mesti's confidant had deliberately stepped back a few steps.

I am afraid that I will be affected by anger later.

At this time, looking at the performance of these veterans in front of him, Mesti really didn't have enough patience to go around in circles with them, so he simply said straight to the point: "Do you know that Future Technology is a company established by Inspector Xu Lei, and the entire company owns It’s all about serving him.”

"In addition, the previous projects of the Human Security Alliance are also in cooperation with future technology."

"Although I don't know why Future Technology came forward this time, but looking at the popularity on major platforms, it is obvious that they have made a big move."

"If we play tricks on the delivery of Compound No. [-], once Inspector Xu is angered, the entire pioneer civilization will pay for it."

"With the current strength of the solar system, it is almost an instant thing to destroy us."

"So please recognize your identity and status."

He almost explained the powerful relationship in one breath, Mesti also felt very tired, and finally waved his hands and said: "You guys go back first, and from today on, let me think about everything behind closed doors. As for the business in hand, I will deal with it separately. Arrange someone to be in charge of carrying it out.”

As Mesti's voice fell, all the bishop-level pioneers present were all dumbfounded.

In addition to not expecting such a deep relationship between Future Technology and Xu Lei, it is even more unbelievable that all the rights in his hands have been taken back just by saying a few words.

After being stunned for a moment, they all realized that they had been cheated by Mo Si.

Originally, they still held a lot of power as veterans, and they were helping Mesti manage the pioneer empire, but they didn't expect that they were justifiably taken away this time. The key point was that they couldn't question anything.

After all, they committed suicide by themselves, almost bringing the pioneer civilization into danger again.

Although the heart is full of unwillingness, but the facts are in front of him, but he can only admit defeat obediently.

Otherwise, if the quarrel continues, Mesti will just find a reason to solve it. After all, they have been very aware of Mesti's tricks over the years.

When things got to this point, they had no choice but to smash their teeth and swallow, and then they took the initiative to admit their mistakes.

"What the archbishop taught us is that we took it for granted this time, and almost brought the pioneer civilization into a state of doom. We will deeply reflect on our mistakes when we go back."

"Well, let's all go down."

Mesti was not in the mood to listen to these words at this time, so she nodded impatiently and sent them away.

And until the figures of these elders disappeared from sight, I saw the confidant of the ambassador-level pioneer stepped forward and said with admiration: "Congratulations to the archbishop for successfully taking back the rights in the hands of the elders. From now on, the entire pioneer Civilization is firmly in your hands."

"With the Third Fleet of the Human Security Alliance, I can't talk about control. I just hope that the empire can maintain the status quo."

Faced with the compliments from his confidant, Mesti's voice softened a lot, and then he solemnly ordered again: "You will be responsible for the matter of Compound No. [-], and it must be transported to Titan Star as soon as possible."

"Don't worry Archbishop, this subordinate promises to complete the task."

Upon receiving this order, the other party quickly bowed down to answer respectfully, then turned and left the room without any delay.

Mosti still trusts the attitude and ability of his confidant, and with so many seniors as a lesson for the past, he believes that this batch of inventory resources will reach Titan Star smoothly.

Although this business did save the Herald Empire a lot of Galaxy coins, it might be worthwhile to have a relationship with Xu Lei.

In fact, what Mesti doesn’t know is that he is not the only one who has this kind of thinking. Many civilizations that have received purchase orders for future technology have almost all given very large discounts, some even at cost prices or simply losing money. Just to build a good relationship with Xu Lei.

After all, after so many things, everyone knows that Xu Lei is the pillar of the solar system civilization.

-

With Mesti's personal order, and the intention of various civilizations in the Milky Way to show good intentions, a large amount of resources, including Compound No. [-], were transported to Titan in the shortest possible time.

The project of the space jump warship started smoothly.

And soon made significant progress.

In fact, when the project officially started and Xu Lei led the team to design the data model of the space transition engine and tried to manufacture it, Li Chengzhe and other talents finally understood why Xu Lei was so sure that the project could be successful.

Because of this mature data model, it is definitely not the beginning of research.

I'm afraid that when the shipyard was still developing the Shenwei Star Destroyer, Xu Lei was already designing the space jump engine.

Having this kind of discovery undoubtedly greatly aroused the passion of Li Chengzhe and others, and they all chose to work overtime.

Strive to cooperate with Xu Lei to create the first space jump engine as soon as possible.

Besides, the Star Destroyer used to carry the space jump engine, because it is produced by itself, and has previous experience in transformation, it went very smoothly, and it didn't take long to successfully design a hull capable of carrying the space jump engine. .

Besides.

Considering that the battleship does not have a dark matter power engine and needs to rely on the Blue Space number of the Civilization Administration Headquarters to provide power energy, Xu Lei also specially designed the combination position for it.

Although this operation made Li Chengzhe and others feel very strange, out of trust in Xu Lei, they didn't say much.

Winter to spring.

Fast forward two years.

During this period of time, except for Xu Lei occasionally returning to Earth Star to accompany Chen Shihe, he basically stayed in the first large shipyard of the Titan Star Fortress for the rest of the time.

This alone is enough to prove the importance he attaches to this project.

In addition, Xu Xuan came in the middle.

But because she still wanted to continue to study the gene optimization fluid, she only stayed in the Titan Fortress for a few days before returning to the Lunar Research Department in a hurry. Originally, she wanted to see the star beast living on Titan with her own eyes. After the star beast ate too many Void Zerg females, it has been sleeping, so it has become a small regret.

It is worth mentioning that the space jump engine manufactured by Li Chengzhe and others under the leadership of Xu Lei has experienced two failures in two years.

Sometimes even the last critical step has been reached.

However, as the saying goes, failure is the mother of success. After two valuable experiences, Xu Lei finally successfully completed the manufacture of the first human space jump engine years ago.

Although the first-generation version is still not up to the level of the museum's evaluation, Xu Lei is quite confident.

At least enough to open up a stable wormhole space channel.

The maximum distance traveled by each shuttle is limited.

As for the transformation of the Star Destroyer, because it involves less difficulty than the space jump engine, it was successfully completed a few months ago. From the overall size, the transformed battleship is basically not much different from the Shenwei Star Destroyer. It's just that the hull has become stronger and stronger.

At the same time, because it needs to carry an extra space jump engine and reserve a place for the blue space number, the shape has changed a lot.

In addition, in order to maximize energy delivery to the space jump engine, the main weapon plasma cannon and secondary weapon neutral particle cannon on the battleship were both removed.

In a way, this is a large warship that does not have offensive capabilities.

Of course, Xu Lei didn't doubt its safety. After all, if he encountered a dangerous situation, he could directly open up a wormhole space channel to escape, and other warships had no ability to catch up.

Even if you encounter a dreadnought with a real level [-] civilization, if you can't calculate the specific star field coordinates where the wormhole channel arrives, you still can't track it.

So with the completion of the ship hull and the space jump engine, although there is no news of the source star civilization fire from the Civilization Management Bureau headquarters, Xu Lei still plans to assemble the space jump battleship first.

Then try to open the wormhole space channel.

See if the antimatter power engine mastered by human beings can meet the energy demand of the space power engine.

If there is any hope of success, there is no need to resort to the blue space number.

The day of the official assembly is undoubtedly an exciting day for many top scientists such as Li Chengzhe in the first large shipyard of the Titan Fortress. After all, this will test the results of all their efforts in the past two years, even if they have some Sure, but still couldn't help being nervous and worried.

I'm afraid that there will be accidents during the assembly process, which will turn the hard work of the past two years into useless efforts and fail Xu Lei's trust.

Xu Lei, on the other hand, stood in the control room, looking at the space jump engine that had been hoisted by the super-large mechanical arm, with a calm expression.

Anyway, it's a project that I created by myself. If I don't even have this confidence, it's too much to pull my hips.
