My empire of stars

Chapter 341 A miserable beginning

What sounded on the holographic screen was standard Imperial Tongue. If it hadn't been for all the corrupted people who had learned Imperial Tongue specifically because of the war, he wouldn't have known it.

After being sent to this unknown remote star system, Runas walked in the dim corridor and felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

At this time, a group of hundreds of imperial men wearing somewhat dirty miners' uniforms walked towards them.

Each of these Imperial people was carrying a piece of luggage, and they passed by them talking and laughing, with happy smiles on their cheeks.

This made Runas and the others relax slightly and continue to move forward.

Tens of minutes later, Runas and others were escorted to a huge circular hall.

As an alarm sounded, there was an exhaust sound from below the hall, as if something had entered the space station through the airlock.

"Everyone, get back outside the yellow markings!" Imperial soldiers shouted loudly, waving electric whips.

Many Corruptor prisoners retreated obediently until they were far away from the yellow warning line.

After a slight vibration, a cylindrical elevator rose from the floor of the hall. The diameter of the entire elevator reached fifty meters, and its height was ten meters high.

There was a sound of mechanical operation, and the elevator door opened to both sides, revealing the thick elevator door and a layer of black sealing tape.

"Take your respirators and get in quickly." The imperial soldier pointed to the rows of respirators on the wall not far away.

The Corruption prisoners lined up to get their respirators and then stood in the elevator.

After the imperial soldiers glanced at these corruptors, they stretched out their hands and pulled down the lever on the console beside them.

The heavy alloy doors of the elevator were locked tightly together, and darkness entered the elevator. Everyone could only hear the breathing around them.

After a while, several alcohol lamps sealed in the walls began to appear on the walls of the elevator, and the ventilation holes in the elevator began to slowly spray out oxygen.

With a click, the metal buckle holding the elevator opened outwards, and the elevator fell toward the ground of the purple planet amid a harsh sound of metal friction.

As the elevator descended at high speed, the four thin cables at the top of the elevator surrounding the more than ten meters thick metal cable in the middle gradually tightened, and the elevator's descent slowed down.

As the winch in the space station slowly released the metal cable, the elevator slowly slid down the thickest metal cable into the purple clouds.

Gusts of strong wind blew, causing the elevator to shake slightly, but because the steel cable in the middle was straight, the shaking was not obvious.

However, the hail mixed with the strong wind hit the elevator shell and made a knocking sound, which made Runas and others who could not see the outside scene panic.

But soon, the crashing sound disappeared and the elevator stabilized.

Tens of minutes later, a heavy landing sounded, and the elevator stopped steadily on the ground.

The elevator door opened to both sides with the force of the staff outside.

"Welcome to hell, newcomers!" Several corrupted people also wearing tights stood at the door of the elevator.

"Our job is to go to nearby mining areas, sort out the minerals and send them back to the space station, and the space station will return us survival supplies."

"The more ores you turn in, the more survival materials you will receive. Sometimes you will be rewarded with tobacco and alcohol. Start your new life!" The corruptors who came to greet them moved out the survival materials in the elevator. He walked towards his distant residence without looking back.

This purple planet was discovered by the Empire's deep space exploration ship. After launching a drone towards the planet, it was discovered that the drone lost its signal after entering the clouds of the planet.

This has attracted great attention from the empire. You must know that the various radiation shielding capabilities of detection drones have been specially strengthened, which can cause them to lose signals. Generally, it is either a particularly special geographical environment or there are alien ruins.

Subsequently, the empire sent several scientific research and exploration ships here, but they found that they could not understand what kind of world was hidden under the thick clouds of this planet.

In the end, there was no choice but to hang an escape capsule with steel cables and put it into the clouds of the planet.

According to volunteers' descriptions, there is a purple world under the clouds of this planet, with huge purple crystals standing on the ground emitting dots of purple light.

There are also countless purple crystal particles floating in the clouds of this planet. These crystal particles rub together to release a large amount of energy and form a special magnetic field.

This is why the outer layer of this planet is covered with a thick layer of purple glowing clouds, and the reason why the drone loses contact is because this special magnetic field destroys the electronic equipment.

This magnetic field would destroy all electronic equipment that landed on the planet. After trying hundreds of different anti-electromagnetic technologies, the Empire had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​letting electronic equipment enter the planet.

The inability to use electronic devices and the fact that it can never see the sun is why it is called starless.

The empire originally planned to use this planet as a scientific research star to study the special environment here. Who would have thought that from these crystal minerals, the empire discovered a new substance, which was artificially synthesized and could be used as the next generation beam of the empire. An important manufacturing material for weapons.

There was no other way. In order to develop the mineral resources on this planet, the empire could only establish a preliminary mining base on this planet by hanging an elevator downwards with ropes.

Without the use of electronic equipment, manpower can only be used to mine this precious mineral resource.

In desperation, the empire could only mobilize a large number of laborers from the subordinate races and the empire's felons to mine on this planet.

The high wages also brought many young people from the empire to come here to serve as leaders of the miners.

However, human power is limited after all, and the efficiency of mining is so low that Li Mingze cannot bear it. This low speed has seriously affected the popularity of the empire's new beam weapons.

But things are different now. Corruptors who have been genetically modified for strength and endurance have become the best candidates for miners.

Being able to have huge power without the need for machinery is perfect on a planet where electronic devices are not available.

Since the arrival of the first batch of Corruptor prisoners, the Imperial miners on this planet have gradually evacuated from Wuxing.

The group of people Runas met on the trestle were the last batch of Imperial miners to evacuate from the Wuxing. Now the miners on the entire planet have been converted into captives of the Corruptor civilization. Only a few Imperial soldiers serve as these corruptors. The manager of the person left behind.

After these corruptors were delivered to this planet, they could never leave. The only way in and out of the planet was through three hundred and twenty space elevators driven by top winches.
