Chapter 345: Luck
"It seems that during the 38,000 years we were asleep, the transit stations suffered a lot of damage!" A middle-aged man slowly enlarged the hologram.
"Now less than half of the wormhole high-speed network we built in the Milky Way is still intact. Most of the damage to these transit stations was caused by natural disasters, and a small part was blown up by humans." Another tall middle-aged man looked at the dimmed areas in the hologram and said with a headache.
"It doesn't matter. When our fleet is ready, we can rebuild a better high-speed network." The oldest man among the three patted the shoulders of the two and comforted them.
"Long live mankind!"
"Long live mankind!" The lights in the room dimmed again, and the figures of the three disappeared in the darkness.
The five ships that were about to go to the Corruptor Star Region also received the order to terminate the mission and turned to fly to another intact transit station.
Li Mingze, who had just blown up the Light of Faith transfer station, didn't know that by chance he had passed by the spaceship of the Supreme Scientific Committee of Humanity. If it was a few days later, the spaceship of the Supreme Scientific Committee would arrive in this star field.
However, after the Light of Faith transfer station was blown up, the Scientific Committee changed its original plan and turned to activate the committee facilities in other directions.
When they set their sights on this star field that they didn't know how long it would take to fly to, it might not be a few years later.
After the Light of Faith transfer station was blown up, the Imperial Fleet continued to advance towards the territory of the Corruptor civilization at a high speed as always. In just two months, all the colonies of the Corruptor civilization had been captured by the Empire.
Before the last few planets fell, a fleeing fleet of fifteen Corruptor cruisers carried the few remaining elites in various fields of their civilization and fled into hyperspace.
However, if they knew that the direction they were fleeing was exactly the direction of the Supreme Scientific Committee of Humanity, they might not flee. It might be better to stay as prisoners than to fall into the hands of the Scientific Committee.
The Empire quickly solved all the orbital facilities in the space of the Corruptor civilization. The Corruptor colonies that lost all air superiority had no choice but to surrender.
In the last ten days, the Empire's ground forces were useless. The Corruptors who went wherever they went surrendered to the Empire's troops without even resisting.
More than 20 million ground combat Corruptors were captured at one time, and the number of Imperial miners increased dramatically. Obviously, the infrastructure on the starless planet was no longer sufficient.
Helplessly, the Empire could only stop the mining of minerals and ordered the Corruptors who had already landed on the surface of the planet to use the building materials dropped by the Empire to build homes for the upcoming 20 million miners.
The Empire built five more orbital space stations on the starless planet. When the six space stations work at the same time, countless amethysts will be excavated continuously.
However, the special nature of amethyst means that it cannot be transported through the Empire's unique material transmission technology, and can only be transported to the Empire through transport ships. In order to reduce transportation time and improve transportation efficiency, the Empire's first wormhole high-speed channel has also begun construction.
When the Empire designed and manufactured this wormhole high-speed channel, in order to save energy, it was designed to be able to pass only small transport ships. However, it is sufficient as a high-speed channel for transporting ore and survival supplies.
A few days later, there was no independent planet in the entire Corruptor star field, and all the planets fell into the hands of the Empire.
Because these colonies no longer have armed forces, and ordinary Corruptors are basically the same as normal humans, except that they have the existence of devouring genes, so 100,000 military police can control a colony planet very well.
There are more than 50 residential colonies and more than 180 industrial and mineral planets in the territory of the Corruptor civilization. The number of military police required for mineral planets will be even less. In total, the Empire can control the situation very well with less than 7 million military police. And this number of 7 million is a drop in the bucket for the base of the empire's 100 billion population. Transport ships began to transport the Empire's military police to these colonies in a steady stream.
A series of constructions began on these planets. The original Corruptors could occupy thousands of square meters of houses alone, and the utilization rate of houses was extremely low. In order to integrate resources and facilitate management, the Empire divided areas for Corruptor civilians, and the buildings in the areas were also converted into living spaces of about 100 square meters.
Under the supervision of the Imperial Military Police, a large number of Corruptor civilians moved out of their homes and moved into these areas specially prepared for them.
Because the Corruptors' buildings did not conform to the aesthetics and living habits of the Sith people, a large area of Corruptors' buildings were overturned and rebuilt, and the natural environment was also transformed in a direction suitable for the Imperials to live in, in order to attract more Imperials to come and colonize.
In the newly occupied star regions of the Empire, the Empire will begin to use biological spacecraft that have been readjusted by the Empire and whose appearance is more in line with the aesthetics of the Sith people.
At the same time, various mechanical equipment and biological cultivation equipment of the Corruptor civilization have been put into production and use again.
The large amount of manufacturing power saved will be invested in the construction of combat fleets.
And the original Corruptor citizens were all demoted to slaves, and their descendants in the future will also be slaves.
Only after they engage in scientific research and make contributions can they apply to the empire to remove the phagocytic genes in their bodies and transform themselves into third-class citizens of the empire.
Only by making significant contributions and removing the Devouring Gene can one become an ordinary citizen of the Empire.
At the same time, up to 10 million Corrupters who surrendered early and were willing to fight for the Empire were incorporated into the Auxiliary Army. If they performed well, they could be promoted to the Orbital Airborne Army.
The captured Corruptor battleship pilots have all been genetically modified and become new transport ship pilots, responsible for the transportation of materials within the Corruptor civilization star domain.
A large number of precious minerals and general minerals looted from the Corruptor civilization were transported to the refining ship that had just arrived.
These minerals will be broken into quarks and transmitted back to the Empire for reorganization.
Since this battle, although the Empire's fleet has lost more than half, the Empire's territory has expanded more than ten times!
The existing resources seized from the Corruptor civilization are enough to support the Empire to rebuild an expeditionary fleet!
Not only that, the Empire has also obtained a large amount of biotechnology from the Academy of Sciences of the Corruptor civilization. As long as it takes several years of digestion and absorption, the Empire will be able to increase the average life expectancy of the Sith by another hundred years.
