In setting up these 100 “Hub Planets,” the Holy Silver Civilization did not choose habitable planets that already harbored civilizations but instead selected those within the habitable zones that were desolate, with not a blade of grass in sight.
For example.
If one were to set up a Hub Planet in the Solar System, they wouldn't choose Blue Star since it already had life.
In the Holy Silver Civilization's style, they would make Mars a “Hub Planet.”
The main reason being, to start from scratch, to build from the ground up.
In the beginning, these Hub Planets were barren, with no signs of life present.
The Holy Silver Civilization spent a lot of effort over an extended period using greenhouse gases to transform these planets into habitable ones.
(It's worth mentioning that Mars can also be transformed with greenhouse gases. If one were to create a greenhouse effect on Mars, it could be terraformed into a planet fit for life as well.)
The “Hub Planet Transformation Project” took a very long time, with the shortest taking millions of years and the longest even twenty to thirty million years.
At that time, the Milky Way Natives did not understand this at all, and there were even civilizations that mocked the Holy Silver Civilization for “wasting resources.”
Everyone couldn't understand why the Holy Silver Civilization would forsake perfectly good habitable planets to do their own terraforming.
But after the “Hub Planet Transformation Project” was completed, the spectacle-watching native civilizations realized they were wrong, and wildly so!
After the transformation of the Hub Planets, the Holy Silver Civilization deployed a large number of the Holy Silver Human Race to inhabit these planets.
They came for only one purpose–to build gates!
More precisely, to create ultrlong-distance portals capable of intergalactic transport and to build portals between the Hub Planets and various native civilizations on Blue Star.
The “Gate Construction Plan” continued for nearly ten million years.
Once the intergalactic portals were completed, the mightiest of the Silver Star System, materials, and trade goods could travel unobstructed to the Milky Way;
Once the portals to the Milky Way Natives were in place, they connected the whole Milky Way like a spider's web!
And these Hub Planets.
The Milky Way Natives needed to pass through these to trade or communicate with other native civilizations, or to conduct trade with civilizations from the Holy Silver Star System, making these truly pivotal transport hubs!
As everyone knows, the development of key transport hubs is incredibly fast!
Take for example the Huaxia Nation on Blue Star.
In ancient times, places like Zhengzhou, Zao Zhuang, and Shijiazhuang were just ordinary counties, or even villages.
But after fully entering the industrial society, because of the convergence of railways, these places became critical transportation hubs.
And important transport hubs mean rapid economic development!
These ordinary counties and villages saw their economies soar, turning into leading cities in the country, their prosperity even surpassing many historical cities nearby!
Take Zhengzhou, for example, which surpassed Luoyang and Kaifeng, two millennium-old capitals, to become the political and economic core of the entire province!
On the scale of the entire Milky Way, this “transport hub effect” is even more severe.
The Milky Way has up to 100 billion stars, yet there are only these scant 100 transport hubs!
That is to say, nearly 10 billion stars covering all civilizations only share this one transport hub!
Therefore, it's a matter of course that these Hub Planets' economies have skyrocketed.
The 100 Hub Planets also unsurprisingly developed rapidly and within an extremely short period, their civilization development index far exceeded that of the native civilizations within their coverage area!
This was just the state of affairs fifty or sixty million years ago.
After another fifty or sixty million years of development and expansion, these 100 Hub Planets have already become the most prosperous and powerful planets in the Milky Way.
In comparison, those once native civilizations can be virtually ignored.
To this day, the most advanced native civilization's level of development is far below that of the least advanced Hub Planet, not even reaching 1% of their status.
These 100 Hub Planets occupy 99% of the entire Milky Way's total economic output and the number of Planet Level warriors or higher.
It could be said that all the Hub Planets combined represent the entire civilization of the Milky Way!
And the Holy Silver Civilization has 100% control over these 100 Hub Planets.
It is precisely because of the control over the Hub Planets that the Holy Silver Civilization has thoroughly dominated the entire Milky Way!
Su Yu knew all this knowledge but now, he felt rather sentimental.
“Ah, Fige Hub, am I finally going there?” Su Yu squinted his eyes.
His sigh was because he had known about this place a long time ago.
Su Yu knew–if Blue Star Humans won the war against the Skrull people, it would be inevitable to deal with the Hub Planets afterward, even possibly establishing stable portals.
But as much as he knew, at the time he didn't pay much attention to Fige Hub.
After all, the outcome with the Skrull people was still undecided; how could he care about the future matters of Fige Hub?
It was like a junior high school student who hasn't even reached high school yet; how could they think about college life in the future?
And now, for Su Yu, that “going to college” day had finally arrived!
As a result, he couldn't help but reflect deeply.
“Blue Whale,” Su Yu asked softly, “when will I probably be able to set off for Fige Hub?”
The AI Blue Whale answered, “You need to wait for Saint Channel Company's interstellar transport service to commence.”
“I know,” Su Yu's forehead creased with a frown: “I just want to know when the interstellar transport service will start?”
All portal services throughout the Milky Way were managed by Saint Channel Company. And Saint Channel Company was one of the core companies under the company hymn.
“Very soon,” AI Blue Whale replied, “translated to Blue Star time, it's about 7 days.”
Su Yu nodded, “So that means, in 7 days we can go to Fige Hub.”
“Yes, please Administrator Su Yu make the necessary preparations in time.”
“Preparations, what have I got to prepare for? Blue Star is empty, I can go anytime.”
“Right, you don't really need to prepare, whatever you need can be bought at Fige Hub.”
“Then during these 7 days of waiting…” Su Yu glanced around, “does that mean there's nothing to do?”
“Yes, Administrator Su Yu,” AI Blue Whale replied, “for these 7 days there's indeed nothing you need to do. My suggestion is to enjoy this free time. This may be some of the rare leisure and rest time you have for the rest of your life.”
“For the rest of my life…”
The terms used by AI Blue Whale sure were frightening; if Su Yu really became a Galaxy Level being, that would obviously mean infinite longevity.
In an infinite life, could it really be that there's no time to rest? That's too terrifying!
But then again, that makes sense.
“It's about time I have a good rest too!” Su Yu struck a relaxed pose, comfortably lying on the clouds, “I've been busy for so long, I should really relax.
Rest for seven days, and worry about what comes after, later on!”
