Chapter 347 Artificial Magician
The hull data of the Empire's new dreadnought are exactly the same as the Michigan. The only difference is that there is no such advanced reactor technology as the previous generation civilization. Even if the reactor is upgraded, the reactor of the dreadnought ship built by the empire still occupies half of the space of the dreadnought ship warehouse.
Only such a large number of reactors can support the mass accelerator cannon and thrusters on the huge volume of the dreadnought. The purple beam weapon just developed by the empire is also a large energy consumer.
The energy consumption of these weapons makes it impossible for new dreadnoughts to install gravity cannons even if they are equipped with reactors. The Empire had to change its strategy and replace the Crescent's main gun with a gravity cannon.
The gravity cannon has become the exclusive weapon of the two previous-generation civilization spacecrafts Crescent and Michigan owned by the Empire.
Different from the slow progress of the empire's fleet expansion, the empire's biotechnology development can be said to have soared due to the absorption of the technology tree of the Corruptor civilization and the joint efforts of a large number of captured Corruptor scientists.
It was originally expected to only increase the life span of the Imperial people by one hundred years, but with the help of Corruptor scientists, it was unexpectedly increased to two hundred years. Coupled with the empire's original life-extension technologies, the life span of the people of the empire can now reach an astonishing five hundred years!
In addition to lifespan, some biotechnology that can facilitate war and colonization has also been developed.
There are dozens of biotechnologies that can be used in ground warfare.
For example, an energy-absorbing tissue shield wall can grow rapidly using the nutrient solution it carries. The initial state of this shield wall is just a capsule the size of half a grenade. It only needs to be thrown hard on the ground. The capsule will burst, and the biological seeds inside will begin to absorb the nutrient solution in the capsule and grow wildly, eventually growing into an energy-absorbing bunker 1.5 meters high and three meters wide, providing cover for soldiers.
Another example is a vine that, after being thrown to the ground, can burrow into the ground on its own, wait until the enemy passes by, and burst out of the ground, completely binding the enemy.
Another example is a weakened alien that is only the size of a teacup and can grow into a mature body within a minute if thrown on the ground. This alien has only a short lifespan of half an hour due to limited energy, and can self-destruct when its lifespan is about to run out. , spraying acid by self-destruction to kill the enemy.
It can be said that the use of various biotechnology has greatly improved the ground combat effectiveness of the imperial troops.
Biotechnology is not only used in ground combat, but also in space combat.
The brand new disposable biological drone is a product of biotechnology. Taking advantage of the high growth rate of organisms, it only needs a body slightly larger than a tea cup. After injecting nutrient solution, it can quickly grow to the size of a drone. It is equipped with a thruster module and a control module. Such drones can carry bombs to carry out suicide attacks.
This rapid manufacturing method can make a drone from scratch and send it to the battlefield in just one minute.
Such speed is undoubtedly like a plug-in in combat, eliminating the need for a lot of time in printing and manufacturing. The empire's drone mothership can create a suicide drone five times the size of the mothership in just half an hour. Human-machine swarm!
In addition, there are biological filling devices used to quickly fill the holes in the injured area, etc...

On the third day after the empire's last wormhole passage node was completed, transport ships loaded with various experimental equipment flew out of the wormhole and arrived at the transfer station in the star system of the original capital of the Corruptors.
"Your Majesty, we still need to pass through the wormhole passage one more time before we can reach the primitive civilization planet used for experiments." Qiuyue stood beside Li Mingze's bed in a cheongsam and whispered to Li Mingze. Qiuyue's originally childish face has become mature and charming.
"I know, call me when you arrive at your destination." Li Mingze turned over and went back to sleep.
The transport ship that had just left the wormhole turned around again and flew towards the metal ring in the other direction, disappearing into the gray wormhole.

In the year 213 of the Jijian Calendar, five fireballs fell from the sky. The five messengers sent by the Creator God, representing life, death, light, thunder and weather, came to our world.
These envoys can use the power given to them by the God of Creation. The God of Life can control the power of life, raise vine walls on the earth, trap wild beasts with giant vines, and even summon divine beasts from the God Realm!
The Death Angel can control metal and gravity, and can use ubiquitous metal to cut enemies into pieces. It can also control gravity to prevent enemies from moving.
The God of Light can control the light of divine punishment falling from the sky and wipe those who go against his will from the ground.
The God of Thunder can release thunder and lightning with his hands, and he can even summon thunder and lightning from the sky to chop his enemies into flying ash.
The weather god can control the weather, causing hail to fall in the originally sunny sky and causing waves in the calm sea.
God’s messengers tell us that if we believe in their gods, we can have the power given by God after being baptized in divine water.
In the dark castle, a pale old man tremblingly wrote down what he saw and heard on a piece of parchment.
After finishing writing, the old man took out a pendant with a portrait of Li Mingze from his pocket, held it tightly with both hands and closed his eyes.
"The purpose of our test is to test our ground combat system. If this test is successful, the combat effectiveness of our empire's ground forces will be even higher."
"This test will use the natives of this planet as experimental subjects to test our orbital weapon summoning system, meteorological weapon system, electromagnetic weapon system, and the newly developed biological weapons!"
"While conducting weapon tests, we can also test the image of religion on the natives, and whether this religious brainwashing has any effect on our brainwashing."
In the orbital transport ship on the planet where the "God's messenger" descended, hundreds of scientists were sitting in the conference room listening to Li Mingze's speech on the podium.
"Your Majesty, how long will this plan last?" A scientist raised his hand carefully and asked.
"This test will last for two years. We have to find out and solve the various shortcomings of these new weapons within these two years, and propose improvement plans." Li Mingze patted the table.
"Okay, the mission has been told to you, you start working!" Li Mingze clapped his hands and walked down the podium.
The many scientists sitting in the conference room lined up in an orderly manner and dispersed.
At this time, there are hundreds of satellites of various sizes floating on this planet called Experiment 001. These satellites are the power source of the "God's messengers" on the ground.
Except for the Life Envoy who is responsible for testing biological weapons, the power of other Life Envoys comes from orbital attack satellites in orbit and the twelve huge weather control columns that have been inserted into various places on the planet.
