Chapter 242 The Lost Cancer Ark

As the colonization work progressed, countless high-rise buildings rose from the ground on the Ring World.

After having enough population, transport ships carrying mining modules and power station modules flew to the Ring World again.

In less than ten days, countless mines and power plants stood on the continents of the Ring World.

Relying on the extremely rich mineral resources under the surface of the Ring World, the mining field entered full-power operation, but there were too many mineral deposits, and the area that the existing mines could mine was just as small as a grain of sand in the desert.

The docks and factories used to build small and medium-sized ships and various equipment were also moved to the Ring World one after another. The entire Ring World was rejuvenated, and busy people could be seen everywhere.

With the abundance of mineral resources, all the shipyards and factories of the Empire were turned on, and they started to build various warships with full power.

However, an embarrassing situation occurred. Although the minerals under the surface were very rich, the speed of the Empire's mining field could not keep up with the speed of warship construction, which seriously affected the construction progress of the Empire's warships.

Just when Li Mingze was having a headache about this, a silver spaceship much larger than the drone mothership suddenly appeared in the starry sky outside the starting star system.

"Your Majesty, the first fruit ship of the Sith seeds we spread has arrived."

"The arrival of this ship will ease the current shortage of minerals." Before Tianyi finished speaking, two more silver spaceships jumped out of hyperspace.

"Now we have enough materials to build warships. These fruit spaceships are all solid and refined materials. We just need to remelt them and use them directly." Tianyi continued excitedly.

These three Sith seed spaceships came at the right time, greatly alleviating the shortage of minerals used for shipbuilding. The powerful Corruptor civilization is like a sword hanging over the head of the empire at all times. Li Mingze dare not slack off. The empire can only have the strength to confront powerful enemies by constantly building ships and expanding its strength.

"Order the construction ships to continue to build shipyards and mining sites. We must hurry up to carry out mass troops. The enemy we are about to face is too powerful." Li Mingze clenched his fists and said.

"Yes, sir." Tianyi's figure disappeared in the office.

From colonization to the ring world, the empire officially stepped onto the interstellar stage. With unlimited resources and living environment, the empire's war machine will begin to operate.

Under the leadership of Li Mingze, this empire will take the ring world as the midpoint and stretch its claws to the surrounding star fields.

…………………………Demarcation line…………………………

Tens of thousands of light years away, on the Cancer Ark flying to the target point.

Shen Yahui, who was selected to maintain the operation of the Ark, slowly opened his eyes.

"Welcome, Mr. Shen Yahui, in the next year, I will be your personal intelligence to help you maintain the Cancer Ark." With a crisp voice, an artificial intelligence in the shape of a female elf floating in the air appeared in front of Shen Yahui.

"Who are you? And how long have we been on the road?" Shen Yahui shook his dizzy head. He remembered that he lost consciousness after several years of learning in the virtual space and waited for the system to wake him up.

"I am Xiaocao, a weak artificial intelligence created by the great Imperial Intelligence Tianyi. I have no emotions or logical thinking ability."

"And we have been on the road for more than 500 years~" Xiaocao, the intelligent assistant, winked playfully.

"Wait! More than 500 years? You said we have been away from the Sith Star Region for more than 500 years! Don't we only need 338 years to reach our destination?" Shen Yahui opened his eyes in disbelief.

"That's right, now I will help you open the dormant chamber~ Someone will tell you the details." Xiaocao said and disappeared in front of Shen Yahui.

With the sound of mechanical operation, Shen Yahui felt that the dormant chamber he was in was grabbed by the mechanical arm and placed on a conveyor belt. After a while, the dormant chamber began to move with the conveyor belt.

A few minutes later, the dormant chamber made a sound of exhaust, and then the cover of the dormant chamber flipped up, and a faint light shone into the dormant chamber along the open gap.

Then four pairs of hands wearing white gloves reached into the dormant chamber, lifted Shen Yahui out and placed him on the operating table beside.

Just as Shen Yahui was about to get up, he was held down by two pairs of hands.

"Don't move. You haven't used your muscles for five hundred years. If you move around, you may damage your body." A gentle female voice came to Shen Yahui's ears.

Hearing this, Shen Yahui stopped moving around and lay down obediently, letting several medical staff do whatever they wanted.

"It may be painful next, just bear with it. Your body has been dormant for too long and needs to be fully activated again." As he spoke, a ring rose under the operating table.

Shen Yahui's body slowly floated into the air, and the rising ring was put on from his head and went down. Soon his whole body was swept by the ring.

A strange feeling came from the top of Shen Yahui's head, and then he felt that his whole body was in pain as if he had been bitten by a small insect.

However, the pain soon disappeared, and then he felt that his body was full of strength again.

Shen Yahui's body fell onto the operating table again. This time no one stopped him. He sat up swiftly and looked around.

There were nine other people lying in the infirmary like him. Besides, there seemed to be someone staring at him outside the glass of the infirmary. This was what his sixth sense told him.

"Everyone, please come to the lounge next to you." As a steady male voice came from the infirmary broadcast, several medical staff turned around and left the infirmary.

Shen Yahui got up and followed the arrow on the floor with the other nine people who had just woken up to the lounge next to him.

There were already ten sofas in the lounge, and the white sofas were surrounded in a semicircle. On the small table in front of each sofa, there was a small nameplate with each person's name on it.

Shen Yahui and others sat on the sofas with their names on them with curiosity.

As everyone sat down, the lights in the room became dim, and the wall in front of everyone turned into a huge holographic screen.

"Everyone, we woke you up because our Ark is in a desperate situation."

"Not long after we set out from the Sith Star Region more than 500 years ago, we accidentally crashed into a naturally formed wormhole."

"Originally, I and several other responsible persons thought it was just a natural wormhole that led to nowhere."

"As a result, after waiting for almost a year, the Ark did not leave the wormhole. We did not enter the hibernation cabin to hibernate, but continued to work on the Ark with everyone, in order to continue to preside over the work until the spacecraft left the wormhole."

"More than a hundred years have passed inadvertently! The Ark still has not left the wormhole!"

"And our lifespan is almost at its limit. We will enter the hibernation cabin and wait for the Ark to arrive."

"And this video is made to help you understand our current situation."

"Don't worry, people who have just woken up. You can choose to work for a year or work until you are old and then wake up a new successor." The old man in the video disappeared.
