Chapter 283 Five Years

Five years later.

The traces of the war with the Corruptors in the New Starting Point Galaxy have disappeared, and the wreckage of the Corruptor warships floating in the universe has been salvaged.

The city that was originally in ruins due to the war has also returned to its pre-war appearance. People walk leisurely on the bustling streets, as if the war five years ago had never happened.

In these five years, 60 billion new humans were born in this world from the human-making facilities of Nuwa Star.

The number of colonial cities on the ring world has also reached 3,000 in this year, and more than 70 billion imperial citizens are spread across the entire huge ring world.

The newly born 60 billion people also brought more than 60,000 new warriors to the Empire's Sith Warriors.

In these five years, the Empire's technology has reached a new height. A large number of new high-quality populations have caused the Empire's scientific research facilities to be in a state of emergency, and countless scientists have joined the Imperial Academy of Sciences.

Many scientific research projects that originally required a large amount of manpower to carry out have also begun to be studied, and some seemingly useless scientific research departments have also been established.

In five years, more than a thousand scientific research and exploration ships were launched into the distant starry sky. The researchers in these scientific research and exploration ships carried the hope of the empire to expand its territory.

In these five years, the orbital defense facilities on the Empire's Sith Star, New Home Star, Nuwa Star, and Earth were finally completed. Huge defense modules floated above the four planets, quietly waiting for the day when they might be used in the future.

In the past five years, the Empire benefited from the crazy expansion of mines on the Ring World. Hundreds of new docks were built on Nuwa Star, and countless new warships also left the docks and joined the Empire's fleet in these five years.

The Empire's fleet was also formally divided, with Li Mingze and three newly promoted commanders in charge of the Empire's four main fleets. These four fleets are:

The Imperial Royal Guard Fleet, mainly responsible for the defense mission within the Empire's New Starting Point Galaxy, Commander Lei Ming), fleet composition: 10 improved battleships (battleships that have been re-reinforced with Ring World metal), 30 ordinary battleships, 300 cruisers, and 3,000 arsenal destroyers.

The First Fleet of the Empire (led by Li Mingze): one dreadnought (the Michigan destroyer of the previous civilization), 20 improved battleships, 40 ordinary battleships, 400 cruisers, and 4,000 arsenal destroyers.

The Second Fleet of the Empire (Commander Yi Yun): 15 improved battleships, 50 ordinary battleships, 400 cruisers, and 5,000 arsenal ships.

The Third Fleet of the Empire (Commander Wang Rongtao): 15 improved battleships, 50 ordinary battleships, 400 cruisers, and 5,000 arsenal ships.

In addition to these main fleets, Li Mingze also formed two landing fleets:

The first landing fleet (Commander Ye Yu): 3 drone motherships, 5,000 frigates, 10,000 landing ships (can carry 5 million ground troops), 2,000 alien landing ships (can carry 4 million alien troops), 2,000 robot landing ships (can carry 6 million combat robots)

The second landing fleet (Commander Monica): 2 drone motherships, 5,000 frigates, 10,000 landing ships, 2,000 alien landing ships, 2,000 robot landing ships.

It can be said that in five years, the empire has taken root in the New Starting Point Galaxy. The empire will begin to expand outward with the New Starting Point Galaxy as its base. Twenty colony ships have been built for subsequent expansion. These twenty colony ships are lying quietly in the dock, waiting for the moment when they are needed.

Similar to the Empire, in an unknown galaxy more than 600 light years away.

A huge planet has been completely hollowed out and transformed into a metal fortress, with countless robots flying on this metal planet.

And 50 kilometers underground at the equator of this metal planet, there is an extremely huge steel palace, with electric lines running on the walls of the palace.

"Dear mother, our mechanical fleet has exhausted the mineral resources in the entire star system, and we need a new resource point." A robot covered with metal edges and corners knelt on one knee in the hall in the center of the palace.

In front of the robot was a huge metal face, with the facial features on the mask clearly visible, and even the tip of the nose was trembling slightly with breathing.

"Oh! Has this star system been mined?" The huge metal mask suddenly opened its eyes, and a pair of amber eyes stared at the robot kneeling in the hall.

"Yes, mother. All the minerals that can be mined with our current technology have been mined. The rest are useless minerals and those that cannot be mined with our current technology." The robot on the ground looked up at the metal mask in the hall.

"Put away the solar energy collection sail, we are ready to set sail!" The metal mask suddenly liquefied into a human form. After a while, a woman in a silver dress appeared in the hall. This person was Eva who had disappeared for many years.

"Yes, sir." As the robot walked out of the hall, the hall began to shake violently.

After a while, with the operation of the gears around the palace, the entire palace rose towards the surface of the planet.

Tens of minutes later, the mechanical palace stretched out on a metal pyramid on the planet.

Eva took small steps to the wide balcony of the palace hall. At this time, the balcony outside had changed from a metal wall to a square under the pyramid.

"Greetings, mother." The robots on the square shouted and knelt on one knee.

"My dear children, we will continue to sail far away, let the glory of our mechanical empire spread throughout the universe, and let those carbon-based lives tremble!" Eva separated a scepter from her hand, and she held the scepter high and stretched her arms towards the starry sky.

"Let our glory spread throughout the universe!" The robots in the audience stood up and shouted loudly.

"Start to retract the solar sails, we are going to jump!" As Eva finished speaking, a huge transparent armor extended from the pyramid and covered the palace.

The robots on the square also returned to their jobs.

After a while, the solar sails that stretched out from this planet and faced the huge stars in the galaxy began to slowly retract.

It took a full eight hours to complete the retraction of the solar collection sails. After the solar sails were retracted, the huge metal "mast" slowly sank into the ground.

All the open holes on the ground were covered with metal caps, and the entire planet became a metal sphere without any holes.

"Begin the jump!" As Eva inserted the scepter into the small hole on the palace floor, the entire planet suddenly began to deform slightly, and the surrounding space also began to distort, and an artificial space bubble appeared outside the planet.
