Yilin Star Field, Muju Star.

The white Gobi Desert is desolate and silent.

But today, a group of uninvited guests suddenly visited, breaking the silence that has lasted for tens of millions of years!

The endless and rugged earth is slowly waving under the influence of some unknown force. It seems that the calm lake surface is rippling with slight ripples under the breeze!

Pull the perspective closer to the ground and you can see the source of the ripples clearly. They are silver bugs the size of fingernails. Under the sunlight, the insects' bodies are shining with a dazzling metallic luster, which is obviously mechanical.

The temperature on the surface of this planet is extremely low, so after countless years of freezing, the surface has long been harder than steel! Small-caliber beam guns may not be able to break!

But with the concerted efforts of these mechanical insect groups, the ground was like a wooden board that was empty by termites, and had long become riddled with holes!

From time to time, mechanical insects with dim light around them will emerge from the ground and then quickly climb to a metal sphere of ten meters in diameter not far away.

The surface of the metal sphere is flashing with a beautiful silver halo, suspended at a height of ten centimeters from the ground, and several metal tracks extend out of the ball's belly and fall to the ground. The mechanical insects crawled into the ball's belly along these gentle slopes.

The space inside the abdomen is arranged in a tight and orderly manner. On the left is an area with a faint silver glow, and on the right is a recycling area!

After the mechanical worms crawl in, they will first come to the right area, open their nearly transparent worm belly, send out a little bit of glowing or dim metal substance inside, and then come to the left area. Stay there motionless for about ten minutes. Wait until the body becomes shining again. Finally, leave the ball belly and return to the ground, and continue to repeat the previous work!

Each silver sphere is responsible for an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of square meters in a radius, and a thousand meters away is a mining ship with a diameter of hundreds of meters, which is responsible for controlling hundreds of silver spheres!

This is a relatively classic exotic mining equipment in the human world: metal honeycomb.

During work, thousands of metal mechanical insects are released, and then under the unified instructions of the central intelligent brain, they are identified in the designated target areas to find all valuable mineral resources. They are initially screened and collected. They are then sent back to the secondary split treatment unit.

After they leave the collected resources here, they will replenish their energy. As long as they stay in the silver area for ten minutes, the energy they obtain can support them to continue working for twelve hours without interruption!

Once a mechanical worm is damaged and cannot continue working, it will be dragged by its companions around it into the silver ball's belly to be recycled!

The maximum working depth of mechanical insects can reach fifteen meters underground. As long as they are valuable resources, they will be carefully peeled out from the soil and rock formations and collected!

These silver spheres, that is, secondary split treatment units, will refine and purify the collected resources, store some of them, and some are used to create new mechanical insect swarms.

After the storage room is full, the sphere will issue instructions to the mining ship, and some flying robots will come to transport the resources in the storage room back to the ship for a new round of refining and purification!

In the distance, a metal suspension platform with a diameter of several meters flew slowly.

"I'm surprised, aren't you?"

Xiao Junling looked at the pretty boy beside him and said gently:

"This is a decentralized resource collection unit, suitable for the development of mineral resources in relatively barren areas. Because the ore in these places is not purity and mining with large-scale machinery and equipment is not cost-effective, so this will be used!"

"It's really amazing!" Alston sincerely admired the railings of the floating platform. His beautiful blue eyes kept looking at the busy mechanical lives, but he never thought that the metal railings were held by him.

Xiao Junling looked at the boy's uneasy expression and said distractedly: "It's okay. At the beginning of the supernatural powers, the brain's control of the body will indeed have a period of adjustment. It is normal to be unable to control the strength, so just get used to it slowly!"

Last time, he was beaten to death by accident because of an accident, and was seriously injured and dying. Xiao Junling saw and rescued him. With the help of the medical equipment of the war fortress, he not only completely recovered from his injuries, but also stimulated his supernatural powers.

"Master, I heard you talk about this star field. This is a very rich star field, with all kinds of high-quality mineral veins. There should be no need for such...dispersed resource collection units, right?" Alston asked curiously.

Xiao Junling explained: "This is because after exploration, on the Gobi Desert below, the shallow layer of the surface contains a special metal mineral "molybdenum rock sand". In our world, this is a resource with extremely wide uses! It has few reserves, so it is worth mining in this way!"

Molybdenum extinguishing rock sand is mainly used for the core components of various high-precision radar detection equipment. Its value is still above the Posera crystal sand. However, it is difficult for this thing to have relatively concentrated mineral veins, which are generally accompanied by other minerals, or are scattered in certain harsh environments.

This collection method is actually not inferior to those large machinery, and its only disadvantage is that it consumes a lot of energy. However, the most important thing in the Biluo Galaxy is energy crystals, so this is nothing!

Yarston looked at his expression and said, "The world where the Lord came from should be very beautiful and prosperous! I really hope I can go over and take a look one day!"

"Of course, there will be a chance!" Xiao Junling patted his shoulder and encouraged him:

"You have good talent. As long as you are willing to practice hard, you will definitely become a high-level psychic in the future, so work hard!"

Little Alston nodded vigorously.

"Master, this is really a good place!" Hua Qingyang flew over from a distance with a team of psychics who were on the inspection mission, and Song Yuanping and Yang Hanjun were also among them.

Xiao Junling smiled and said, "I said that you won't regret it! Let's work together, and one day this starry sky will belong to us!"

When they were in the imperial capital, the three of them had successfully completed the retirement procedures, and then came here with him as core followers!

Yang Hanjun smiled and said, "It's been a month now, it's time to continue using troops, right? How powerful are those crystal crabs? I can't wait to see them!"

Xiao Junling nodded and said, "This has been planned long ago! There are a few days left to be the New Year of the Chinese Empire. I plan to wait until the New Year before sending troops. What do you think?"

"That's what it should be!" Hua Qingyang said authentically.

…………

Although the Nogas Blue Civilization has its own calendar, as a foreign Chinese, he still retains the habit of celebrating the Chinese festivals! This is also the common practice of the lords of overseas autonomous lords in the interstellar era!

Considering that it will take some time for the new fleet to run-in training, Xiao Junling delayed the time of sending troops. It was not until after the Lantern Festival that he summoned core followers to discuss a new round of strategy plans.

"...After more than two months of hard work, our number of warships has exceeded 30,000, and all kinds of new equipment have been debugged and assembled! There is sufficient logistics supplies, and it is time to continue to expand!" Li Yuankang said,

"I just don't know what the Lord plans to choose?"

Xiao Junling opened the star map and explained to everyone: "We don't need to fight with the surrounding great lords for the time being. The main task this time is to defeat the fleet left by Bronnik and seize the most prosperous star fields, including its old nest Yuanxing Star Domain!"

"As long as this is achieved, our plan will be completed!"

Since the fall of the Bronnik Grand Lord, its territory and the remaining legion have been divided by three powerful tribe members! These three forces are nothing to Xiao Junling now.

The only thing that is worth worrying is that they may collude with the surrounding great lords and use the power of those guys to suppress him! Therefore, this battle must be cautious and retain a certain strategic reserve team at any time to deal with unexpected variables.

Yu Xiner asked, "Don't you plan to accept all of its more than ten star fields?"

Xiao Junling said: "Of course, we are still unable to eat such a large fruit of victory! So I only plan to first include several of the better developed star fields in direct control! Wait for a few months to digest, and then plan for the rest of the territory!"

Hu Yuanming smiled and said, "I wonder how much power those guys have. If there is nothing different from our original information, it will be too easy to win this battle! Maybe in two or three days, we can hold a celebration banquet on Jem Star, the capital of the Yuanxing Star Domain!"

Xiao Junling glanced at the star map and said, "There is nothing to say about the Yuanxing Star Domain! What I am worried about now are the forces around me! For example, that Atagst and the Croistan next to me are not good at it!"

"If they also plan to come and get a share of the pie, with our current strength, it will be difficult to cope with it!"

Zhou Yun said: "We now have a fleet of more than 30,000, and there will be 3,000 more troops within one month. They are all warships that have been upgraded and transformed with war fortresses. Even if we fight, we may not suffer much!"

Xiao Junling agreed with his opinion that at such a critical moment, he must not be too weak! If they really dare to take action, no matter how much they pay, they will have to cut off the claws that these guys stretched over!

Anyway, I still have a trump card, so the opponent's losses will definitely be greater than that of me!

The Yuanxing Star Domain, as well as the surrounding three star domains such as Xifeng, Lennon, and Changwei, are the territory directly controlled by the Great Lord of Bronnik, and are also the four most prosperous and most developed star domains in its territory!

He can firmly sit in the position of the great lord, and rely on the rich resources of these four star fields, which gives him enough capital to cultivate a powerful force and use it to intimidate other lords around him!
Chapter completed!
