The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons Chapter 182

  Chapter 182 Boring, simple and unpretentious 22.8 billion cyberhumans

  With such planning, a super livable area can accommodate a population of about 50 billion.

  He now has eleven super-livable areas available for immigration, planning to accommodate up to 550 billion people.

   "The place is ready, but there is a shortage of people!"

At the same time, on the third and fifth floors of the same super livable area, the metropolis belonging to the Qiandu Group and the Tiannu Group is almost completed. Li Qing non-stop went to the city that the Qiandu Group first captured, preparing to Open the door of the black hole to receive immigrants.

  The urban planning of Qiandu and Tiannu is the same as that of Undertide. They are unified in the shape of a meter and can limit the use of regional land to the greatest extent.

  In fact, in the future, all regions will unify this style for easy management.

  While the immigration here is in full swing, other groups in the distance are contacting them one after another.

Of course, the large-scale immigration of the three groups such as the dark tide cannot be concealed from the groups in other regions. It can make the three groups give up everything they have and leave. This aroused their great curiosity. Group Director's desktop.

  After curiosity, there are different thoughts.

  Those who have the same thoughts as the Undertow Group, they still exist in order to ensure their wealth and status leave this favor, which makes them very excited, and this accounts for the majority.

  But there are also those who have the opposite idea, or they are not reconciled to the benefits Li Qing promised, and they want to get more.

   Li Qing maintained a welcoming attitude towards these contacts, and he guaranteed that those who were willing to surrender would have the same treatment as the undercurrent, while those who wanted to gain more benefits, he simply rejected them.

  Now is different from the past. If it was the first contact, he might not agree.

   But now a large number of groups have surrendered and are willing to enter the palm universe, and now urban citizens have gathered to wait for immigration. At this time, the demand for population is not as urgent as before.

  Of course, if someone surrenders, they will agree that the more the better for ordinary human civilians, but don't think about asking for more benefits.

   Those who agreed sent representatives to negotiate, and those who disagreed died down.

  In just half a month, as many as 17 of the 22 groups expressed their willingness to surrender to him, which was beyond Li Qing's expectations.

   "It seems that they have underestimated their yearning for freedom!"

   Obviously, they don't want to stay in this cage that has bound them for more than seven thousand years. Even the dignitaries in high positions are willing to give up their supremacy, and they would rather leave here with a lord who controls them.

   Li Qing has not been imprisoned for so long, so it is difficult to understand this feeling.

Before that, he had prepared for a long-term battle, prepared for the heavy losses of the ground troops, and prepared himself to take action himself when the time came, but none of these came in handy, and he just surrendered inside, which was easier than he expected. out of expectation.

   But this is a good thing. There is no war, and the safety of civilians can be guaranteed as much as possible. The more people who survive, the better for him. Whether it is a human or a machine has little effect on him.

The civilians in the Cyberworld all take the route of mechanical ascension, all of which have undergone mechanical transformation and prosthetic plants. The proportion of flesh and blood in the body is very low, and some of the whole body has been modified, only the brain inside the hard alloy skull has not been completely replaced. .

  The core of distinguishing between humans and machines is brain modification. As long as the brain is not modified, it is a human being. If the brain is replaced with a mechanical brain, it is not a human being.

  Li Qing's plan is to issue an administrative order prohibiting comprehensive transformation after everyone is included in the palm universe.

  The current generation is all that matters, the new generation is absolutely not allowed to do any mechanical transformation and implantation of prosthetic bodies.

  Of course, if a soldier is disabled due to war, he can have limited mechanical transformation and prosthetic implantation, but at most it is not allowed to transform more than 50% of the body.

   When the second generation is born and grows up, it will be more than ten years later. At that time, the genetic technology of the territory will definitely advance by leaps and bounds. At that time, the people of the territory will directly let the people of the territory take the route of genetic and spiritual ascension.

   Only by changing the ascension route and completely giving up mechanical ascension can they bid farewell to the past and integrate into the human civilization system.

It is basically difficult for the first generation of immigrants to have the opportunity to leave the universe in the palm of their hands. After passing the inspection, some civilians who have not undergone deep mechanical transformation will be relocated to Jialan. Large-scale immigration of Jialan is only accepted by the new second generation. It can only be released after complete human education.

  As time went by, each group reached a cooperation agreement with the territory, and began intense and orderly immigration preparations.

  The situation is very good, and Li Qing is in a good mood to receive this mobile fortress faster and more smoothly than he imagined, even if he will be trapped here for more than a year, he will be happy.

  It's like writing a novel. If you don't get good grades, you don't want to write it until you have 4,000 words to make up for full attendance.

  But if the grades are very good, and there is a one-dollar manuscript fee for each word written, at this time, no matter how tired you are, you will spend tens of thousands of dollars every day, writing forever, and writing until the website goes bankrupt.

  However, the world is not completely smooth sailing.

   On the day when the twelfth group started to emigrate, he suddenly received a private message from an anonymous player, saying that several top consortiums with ancient histories in the center of the Cybertron fortress were planning to join forces to implement some plan.

  Li Qing immediately became vigilant and ordered all places to be vigilant.

  Those consortiums are indeed a bit strange. Before he rejected the additional conditions of their several consortiums, he didn't follow up. Now it seems that the internal party feels unwilling and wants to make some small moves.

   But he couldn't think of any tricks they could do.

  Insufficient strength, they are not allowed to make big moves.

  Small actions can't change the overall situation except to annoy him, so it's meaningless.

  Although he received the news, Li Qing did not take any action except to warn his subordinates to be more vigilant. He did not send a reconnaissance team, nor did he ask those group directors who surrendered.

   I have absolute strength, as long as I remain unchanged to respond to all changes.

  What small actions they want to do, as long as they implement it, there will always be movement, and when the time comes, they will know what they want to do.

   Moreover, this news is just a private message from an anonymous player, and there is no conclusive evidence. The credibility is not very high, and it is even more impossible for him to take the initiative to make any movement before they have any movement.

Super Livable Zone No. 1, the first floor, on the edge of Longgui City in the south, a logging team drove into the virgin jungle outside the existing city ring, and giant logging tens of meters high entered the jungle like hills , stretch out a mechanical arm to cut off a thick log from the root, put it down, and then use the gear to push the tree to the other end of the mechanical arm. The sharp blade in the mechanical arm cuts off all the branches and leaves only the trunk, and then saws Lost to the ground in pieces.

   Immediately afterwards, a crane came over and lifted the tree trunks piled up on the ground and moved them to the huge belly compartment of a large transport aircraft not far away.

  The two pilots in the cockpit of the aircraft looked at the thick and severed logs below, and their eyes were full of sighs.

   "The world is really unpredictable. Half a year ago, I couldn't imagine that such a thick original tree could be used by ordinary citizens."

  Another driver was biting down a large piece of roasted meat that was scorched and tender, nodded in agreement and said:

   "Who says no, I, a low-level commoner, never dared to eat such delicious natural barbecue."

  He took a hard bite, and said somewhat vaguely:

  “I lived to be forty-five years old. The best meal I had before was a roast chicken made with cockroach larva meat mixed with carrageenan. It cost me half a month's salary at that time.”

   "Thinking back, the best meat that commoners could eat was the meat of larvae. Now it's wonderful that commoners can easily eat natural barbecue."

   "Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

   "Praise Your Royal Highness!"

  Such situations have occurred in different livable areas, ranging from powerful and noble people, middle-class citizens, and low-level civilians. Although the class has not changed, life and environment have undergone earth-shaking changes.

   Among them, the most emotional changes are still at the bottom of the common people, not only the change of living environment, but also the most motivating thing for them is that they now have the opportunity to change their class.

  The original solidified class changes with the change of the environment, and breaks with the breakdown of the closed social structure.

  Now as long as you work hard, you can get the harvest corresponding to your hard work, instead of being unable to get the corresponding harvest no matter how hard you work like before.

  When they realized this, the slight discomfort that many people at the bottom had felt about the first immigrants disappeared, and now they are full of expectations for their future life.

  As time went by, more and more humans immigrated to the Palm Universe. Li Qing went back to the territory during this period, mainly to receive some supplies and the second repayment.

This time they almost went bankrupt, took out the remaining 60 trillion on hand, and sold some of the refined steel and alloys on hand to make up 15 trillion. Each person paid back 15 trillion, and only owed 24 trillion in half a year. pay off.

In addition, now he can inspire three servants of light every month. In the past few months, he has accumulated more than a dozen and used them all. A few battleship chief engineers and a few scientists were selected for enlightenment.

  In the end, with the addition of the original ones, a full 20 battleship chief engineers were assembled, and a batch of 200 battleships could be built.

In addition, with the Orb people becoming his vassals, some talents of this race can also be used. In addition to 200 teams of battleship engineers, Li Qing also allocated 500 teams of cruiser engineers and 500 teams of destroyers. Construction engineers, and 2000 groups of frigate engineers.

  If it weren't for the limited shipbuilding materials and limited blueprints for battleship weapon accessories, he would have to double the cost directly.

  In addition, the batch of warships that Commander Yu Qingzhi ordered from him, a Titan super-flag, two dreadnoughts and two aircraft carrier flagships, and the super order of 1,000 battleships were finally more than half completed.

   Two flagships and two aircraft carriers are about to be completed, and one thousand battleships are also about to be completed. The construction will definitely be completed by the end of the year, saving a lot of engineers to start building their own battleships and flagships.

  As for the Titan super-flagship, it will take about half a year to complete. The construction of the super-flagship is too long. Even if the speed of shipbuilding is further improved by being promoted to the Negative Star, this improvement has just started.

   Didn't stay in the territory for long, only supplemented some supplies to deal with the backlog of the territory, he returned to the isolated star field, and started working again.

  As soon as he returned to the Cybertron Fortress, he has been busy going to various places to open the gate of the black hole and bring the immigrants in each city into the super livable zone.

  Every time it is opened, it can accommodate at least a few million people, and the most cities have nearly 20 million civilians into the palm universe.

  Besides, he was also careful to guard against possible problems. Although the previous anonymous warning was ignored verbally, he still took it seriously in his heart.

  But after more than half a year, nearly 6 billion civilians in more than 500 cities have been successively accommodated in the palm universe, but there is no abnormality.

   Just when he was wondering if the anonymous person was deliberately sowing dissension, one day, the immigration headquarters suddenly received surrender documents from the top financial groups located in the center of the fortress.

  After thinking about it for more than half a year, when Li Qing had collected most of the cyberhumans in the outer circle of the fortress into the universe in his hands, they seemed to finally be unable to sit still and decided to surrender.

   This is quite surprising, and of course it is a good thing. Now that part of the conquest is missing, this mobile fortress can be completely captured.

   At that time, nearly 10 billion human population will be obtained, and a mobile fortress that is roughly intact will be obtained, perfect.

The same conditions and the same process as other groups surrendered, and Li Qing did not treat them particularly harshly because they surrendered late. Life is beyond their control.

He is not afraid that these groups and financial groups will play tricks on these civilians. Even Li Qing doesn't pay much attention to these tens of billions of cyberhuman civilians. The second generation of natural humans born in the super livable zone, those are the focus of his attention.

   Another month later, the portals within the sphere of influence of the last few big consortiums had been built, and Li Qing became busy again, going to various places to open the gates of black holes, and taking away batches of civilians.

   There were no accidents during this period, and the five major financial groups cooperated very well.

   "Normal, the absolute difference in strength, as long as the brain is normal, you can only surrender!"

  It was more flat than expected. When he first discovered that there were ancient remnants in this mobile fortress, he thought about whether the remnants would resist strongly and whether it would cost a lot of money to capture it. Now it seems that he thought too much.

  Compared to the fact that the outer forces of the Cybertron Fortress are called cliques, and the internal forces are called consortiums, the five major consortiums not only have far stronger overall strength than the cliques, but also have far more territory and population than the cliques.

  Like the Undertide Group, there are fifty-seven cities in total, with a total population of 600 million.

Any one of the five major consortiums owns hundreds of cities, and any city has a larger and more prosperous population than the Undertide Group. The population is at least 1.9 billion, and the maximum is as high as 3.1 billion. These consortiums alone have contributed 11.2 billion people, and The seventeen groups all add up to only 11.6 billion people.
