Chapter 478 Dyson Sphere Completed

Ten years later.

A desolate star system located one hundred light years away from the capital star system of the Sith Empire.

This star system is in the heart of the empire, but there are no empire's residential colonies in the surrounding star systems, and there are also several large military fortresses of the empire around it.

This makes this star system the most ideal place to build a Dyson sphere. Once any accident occurs in the Dyson sphere project, it will not cause too much damage to the empire, and the surrounding military facilities can also provide it with good protection.

In addition, there are no life planets in this star system, and even if the light of the star is blocked, it will not cause devastating damage to the life planet.

Therefore, the empire began to build construction facilities in this star system eleven years ago.

After ten years of uninterrupted construction, the main skeleton of the Dyson sphere was finally completed. Due to the addition of a large number of advanced scientific committee technologies, the construction period was greatly advanced.

Five huge metal rings bound the entire blue star in it. In order to reduce the difficulty of construction, this star with a volume of only one-eighth of the sun but a mass of one-third was specially selected.

Between two adjacent metal rings, a huge grid can be seen that is connected by ropes made of biological materials.

Although this grid looks huge, it actually only occupies one sixteenth of the surface area of ​​the star.

This one sixteenth area is the largest area that the empire can currently manufacture. Unlike the large frame with a simple structure, the cost of special algae that can absorb the light and heat of the star and convert it into energy that the empire can use is also one of the reasons that restrict the construction of the Dyson sphere. In addition, there is also the problem of facilities to extract the energy converted by these algae and connect it to the empire's energy network.

Although the technology library of the Supreme Scientific Committee of Humanity has more advanced energy extraction technology, the cruel reality facing Li Mingze is that they have no resources to build a more advanced Dyson sphere.

The current scientific committee is no longer the committee that ruled the Milky Way at its peak. Hundreds of thousands of years of sleep have consumed a lot of their vitality.

So Li Mingze can only choose to build a backward Dyson sphere first to provide a lot of energy for his next plan. Presumably, once that plan is completed, the empire will no longer lack resources!

Li Mingze, Tianyi and others came to the star system where the Dyson sphere was located early, waiting for the completion of the first part of the Dyson sphere.

"Your Majesty, should we start using the first part of the Dyson sphere?" A scientist walked to Li Mingze and asked respectfully.

"Let's start. This will be the first step for our Sith Empire to stand on the top of the universe!" Li Mingze's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

After getting Li Mingze's reply, the scientist stretched out his hand and slid twice on the personal terminal, and the Dyson sphere in the distance suddenly changed!

As hundreds of thousands of transport ships carrying nutrient solution docked the cargo hold on the interface of the Dyson sphere skeleton, countless nutrient solutions began to flow into the huge nutrient tanks built on the skeleton along the pipeline.

Some black algae began to grow suddenly after the nutrient solution flowed through. If the lens is zoomed in on the cells of these algae, it will be found that the cells of these algae began to divide wildly after the nutrient solution flowed through, one became two, two became four, and four became eight.

In just a few minutes, these madly dividing algae extended along the large net composed of biological materials.

Thanks to the advanced biotechnology obtained by the Empire from the Corruptor civilization, the direction, degree and quantity of this crazy growth are controllable, and how they grow has long been written into their genes.

These algae will grow according to the goals set in the genes until they completely cover this huge grid area.

Five days later, these algae finally completed their growth. At this time, an area on the Dyson sphere was already covered by black algae, and no light could penetrate it.

From a distance, the star looked like a cake with a piece cut off, and it was no longer intact.

After the growth was completed, the black "Dyson algae" began to work.

The black appearance makes them extremely absorbent of light. The light and heat generated by the star are absorbed by these algae and transmitted to the huge bulges on the skeleton of the Dyson sphere through the internal meridian-like network.

At this time, the robots of the Empire began to insert energy transmission pipes into the bulge, and a stream of golden energy liquid flowed out of the bulge. The energy liquid produced by compressing these energies to a certain extent is the final product of this Dyson sphere.

They will be transformed into a member of the surging energy in the Empire's energy network through the converter.

"Your Majesty, the first phase of the Dyson sphere construction mission has been a complete success! Our Empire can use the large amount of spare energy for various scientific experiments in the future!" The scientist next to Li Mingze said excitedly.

"How long will it take to complete the remaining fifteen stages?" Li Mingze frowned and asked. If one stage takes ten years, then by the time this Dyson sphere is completed, the Zerg may have already killed their hometown.

"Because we had no experience to learn from before, everything was moving forward by trial and error, so the progress of the first stage was so slow. Now we have sufficient experience, and each stage in the future will only take four years." The scientist patted his chest and promised.

"Very good, then I will wait for your good news. At present, I have other uses for the energy generated by the Dyson sphere. Other scientific research departments can relax the energy usage restrictions after the second part is built." Li Mingze waved his hand and walked out of the room.

As he disconnected his consciousness from the star system where the Dyson sphere was located, Li Mingze woke up again in another desolate star system near the border of the empire.

This star system is very strange. The entire star system has only a planet half the size of the earth and a star half the size of the sun.

And on this planet that is only half the size and half the mass of the earth, a giant hemispherical building as high as 10,000 meters is buckled on an endless plain.

This hemispherical building is pure silver throughout, and its smooth surface refracts all the light shining on its surface to the side.

If you think this is an ordinary building, you are wrong. The outer armor of this building alone is 500 meters thick!

Layers of shells composed of various alloys and materials are tightly buckled together, completely isolating everything in this building from the outside world.
