Planet Builder

"It's said to be a rookie game, but in fact, a rookie can't win this game at all."

"Those civilizations above level 1.5 are considered first-level civilizations."

"Their technology and industrial capabilities are obviously stronger than that of the 1.0-level civilization. This kind of rookie competition is basically their stage."

He Xingzhou understood, and he excitedly said, "Isn't this tailor-made for me?"

"I think so too." Bai Ningxiang agreed.

She also thought that the Blue Star civilization was an ordinary parent star civilization, which would soon be destroyed by the Zerg. Who would have known that a freak such as He Xingzhou appeared, and abruptly brought a civilization that was doomed to extinction into the interstellar era.

That's enough to call it a miracle!

Tamu smiled and said: "It seems that you are willing to sign up, come with me, you can sign up now, we can hold a competition in an average of six months, one competition, there are 100,000 first-level civilization interstellar builders to participate. !"

"Are so many people participating?" He Xingzhou asked, "Could it be that the participating civilizations are not only from the Orion Arm and the Milky Way?"

"Of course!" Tamu said, "One competition is a hundred years, and we can't only compete once a hundred years? How can there be so many interstellar builders just relying on the Orion arm and the Milky Way?"

"This kind of competition is also a rare opportunity for low-level civilizations to contact other galaxy civilizations! They may include various types of civilizations, such as hive type civilizations, wandering civilizations, silicon-based civilizations, etc. Generally, silicon-based civilizations and plant civilizations compete in this kind of competition. In the middle, they often get the top three! Their manufacturing speed is too fast!"

He Xingzhou not only had no intention of quitting, but became even more excited when he heard Tamu's words. The more and more competitors there are, the more interesting it is.

Just that Blue Star Civilization built its own single machine in the solar system to fight against the Zerg, I always felt that something was missing.

This interstellar builder's rookie competition is the stage for He Xingzhou to play!

He Xingzhou's 5,685 contribution points have been converted into universe coins. After paying the registration fee of 1,000 universe coins, he joined the rookie competition.

"The rookie competition will start in ten days." Tamu smiled. "Young man, you still have the opportunity to learn from me now, but the tuition fee will be raised to 3,000 Universe Coins. I have the trick to quickly get a place in the rookie competition!"

"Back then, I won the top 50 in the rookie competition once! Even if you only enter the 100th place, you will still win without losing!"

Bai Ningxiang spit out: "If you are really that powerful, now you are not a second-level interstellar builder, but a more advanced!"

"What does the little mermaid know? How can civilization upgrade so quickly?" Tamu said, "With me here, our civilization will soon become a third-level civilization!"

He Xingzhou ignored his words again. After signing up, he can enter the communication hall of the competition. This is an independent space where all participating interstellar builders can come to communicate, and others can also watch the competition.

As soon as He Xingzhou came to the competition hall, a competition logo appeared on his body, which read "First-class builder, Chengfeng, the current score is 0. Ready to participate in the competition."

These interstellar builders come from various civilizations, and the civilizations are far apart. With their technology, there is almost no possibility of attacking each other across the galaxy, so they are very enthusiastic and communicate with each other.

Seeing the appearance of new people, some interstellar builders were ready to come up and talk, but seeing that He Xingzhou's score was 0, these people returned.

With zero points, it's completely a novelty. Everyone is very realistic, no one wants to communicate with Mengxin, waste time and learn nothing.

He Xingzhou turned around and found a "new crowd" of dozens of people. Everyone here did not have many points, and he did not exclude him, a cute newcomer with zero points.

"Hello everyone, I'm a newcomer, riding the wind." He Xingzhou introduced himself.

"Welcome to the newcomers!" said an alien like a bamboo pole, "I am the Green Goblin, and you can communicate with us about the construction of civilization."

He Xingzhou saw that his entry logo read "First-class builder, Green Goblin, the current score is 87. Ready to participate."

Bai Ningxiang whispered: "87 points, his civilization is at least 1.8-level civilization. Even the spokesperson of the second-level civilization is not necessarily a second-level interstellar builder."

"Like you?" He Xingzhou said.

Bai Ningxiang said with a black line, "I'm not good at this. To become a second-level interstellar builder needs to be assessed, and many of the technological giants required for the assessment do not need to be built."

In the new crowd, the interstellar builder has already chatted.

"The competition will start ten days later. Let me tell you about the skills first." The Green Goblin said, "A single technological creation will add very little points. For example, if you build a planetary mining ship, you will only add one technology point."

"But this technology point can be superimposed. The planetary mining ship I used as an example is the easiest technology creation to add technology points. It is relatively simple to manufacture and consumes less resources."

"To build a space battleship with a speed of 10% of light, add 10 technology points, the difficulty, time, and resources that can be manufactured are enough to manufacture more than 50 planetary mining ships!"

"In addition to mining ships, there are also space exploration satellites, space mechas, and space drones. These are relatively easy to manufacture and have good points for technological creations."

"If you want to get higher rankings, these things can be mass produced."

"So, wouldn't it be possible to make all the planetary mining ships and have a chance to be in the top 100?" said an alien.

The Green Goblin denied it: "Of course it's not that simple. There are bonus points for making systematic technological creations."

"For example, a small fleet, ten interstellar warships, can add 100 additional technology points. Or create a star system logistics system, which can increase 1000 technology points at one time."

"For the first time you compete, don't think about rankings. It's almost impossible to get them, just take it as a learning experience and build a foundation for your own civilization."

He Xingzhou asked, "What if you want to get the ranking? How do you do it?"

The Green Goblin glanced at him, and although he didn't think these people were eligible for the ranking, he patiently explained: "Three methods, the first is what I just said, the massive construction of planetary mining ships, which is a technological product that adds points; Second, build a technology system, a stellar system logistics system, a stellar system energy system, a stellar system communication system, etc.; the last one is the one with the most bonus points and the most difficult one!"

When he said this, everyone was interested and looked at him.

"That's building tech giants!"

"For example, giant spaceports, space cities, battle castles, etc. This kind of added technology points is more, and one can add thousands of technology points."

He Xingzhou asked, "How much can you add to a Dyson ball?"

Hearing his words, the surrounding interstellar builders couldn't help it, and said: "It's too easy for you to think, Dyson sphere is a technological giant that can only be built by a second-level civilization. If you can build it, you can directly become a second-level civilization. Level interstellar builder, the Angel of Order can exchange 10 million universe coins for rewards!"

"This competition, the direct champion!"

Someone said: "How can our first-level civilization have so many resources to build Dyson spheres, at least the resources of the entire star system are enough! With that strength, we can directly be promoted to second-level or even third-level civilization!"

"Yeah, it's not that no first-level civilization has been produced before, but that first-level civilization is a subsidiary civilization of high-level civilization, and it was completed with the help of high-level civilization. At that time, it directly won the champion of the rookie competition!"

"Don't think about it, think about that, it's better to honestly build something useful for your own civilization. Otherwise, the resources of the star system will be wasted in vain. By then, the civilization will die directly because of the exhaustion of resources before it leaves its own star system. !"

The Green Goblin agreed: "That's right, don't be too ambitious. According to the survey, the reason for the destruction of more than 60% of the first-level civilization is not because of enemy attacks, internal wars or cosmic disasters, but because of technological bottlenecks and the interior of the star system. Resources are exhausted and slowly dying!"

"For our low-level civilization, don't think about technological giants such as Dyson spheres, giant space cities, and super star rings. Honest development is the right way!"

He Xingzhou also knew that what he said was reasonable, and it was true for ordinary civilizations. But for Blue Star Civilization, it can only make a desperate attempt to build these technological giants, because he wants to solve the planetary-level ultimate weapon of quantum light brain and deal with the Zerg!

And these civilizations do not need to fight against the Zerg.

After the Green Goblin's brief introduction, everyone began to discuss how to build it.

"Our civilization may have to go to war with neighboring civilizations. This time, we must get the top 100, so I plan to use all the resources of civilization to build space battleships and planetary mining ships! Bet!"

"I'm still a rookie, just build a planetary mine honestly."

"There are too many participants. It is estimated that the top 100 are interstellar builders with a civilization of level 1.7 or above. I think it's out of the game, learn some experience. Brother, our star system is all gaseous planets, what is best to build? ?"

"The gaseous planet, of course, is a space fractionation tower, fractionating gas, refining heavy hydrogen or nuclear fusion raw materials such as deuterium and tritium!"

"Chengfeng, what are you going to build?" asked an interstellar builder next to He Xingzhou. His entry identification read: "First-class builder, Yan Xin, currently has 43 points. Ready to participate."

Yan Xin is also a humanoid intelligent creature. His civilization was born on a rocky planet. He only spoke to him because of his similar appearance to He Xingzhou.

He Xingzhou thought for a while and said, "First build a planetary logistics system and a planetary energy system, then go to a satellite to build a base, build a spaceport, and then develop a fleet, the more the better."

Yan Xin advised: "If there are no enemies, there is no need to build weapons first. It is better to build all mining ships and mine everywhere!"

"You can also build a space scientific research station, and you can also improve the progress of civilization technology!"

He Xingzhou smiled and said, "There are enemies near our civilization."

He wanted to mine first, but the nearby Mercury, Venus, and Mars probably all have Zerg existence. How to mine without making weapons to destroy them?

"It turns out that this is the case, then it is very difficult for you." Yan Xin said, "If a war starts, the technological creations made are destroyed, which is equivalent to the decline of civilization, and the technology points will be deducted."

"It's really difficult!" He Xingzhou took it seriously. The Blue Star Civilization almost collapsed several times, isn't it difficult?

"It's hard to be afraid, sometimes you don't know what despair is if you don't persevere!" A voice sounded beside He Xingzhou, He Xingzhou looked over, and there were two members of the Pleiades Society just now.

Rafael of South River Civilization and Grey Wolf of Sirius Civilization, the two investigated Blue Star Civilization and signed up for the rookie competition.

Their entry identification reads: "First-class builder, Rafael, the current score is 78 points. Ready to participate in the competition."

"First-class builder, Gray Wolf, the current score is 98. Ready to participate in the competition."

"Ninety-eight points? The second-level interstellar builder is coming soon!" Yan Xin looked at the gray wolf in surprise. The name of the gray wolf was translated by the translator, because he really looked like a big gray wolf on the earth. , or werewolves.

"Why are you here again?" Bai Ningxiang said angrily, "It's like bed bugs, you can't drive them away."

Rafael smiled and said: "Don't say that, we are all humanoids. To be honest, from the perspective of civilization aesthetics, we are quite similar, the little girl looks good, if it is in our civilization, I am very willing to do it with you. Pleasant exchange."

"But everyone is a spokesperson for civilization, and behind it is the entire civilization, each with its own master. Personal tempers and preferences can almost be ignored."

"Our civilization has to develop, and the distance is so close, you refuse to surrender, of course it is our enemy."

Gray Wolf said: "Yes, in fact, I don't like to cause trouble. Within the Sirius civilization, I belong to the moderate representative."

"So I'll give you another chance. If the Black Sea Civilization and the Blue Star Civilization join the Subaru Society, I can be a lobbyist and let the main civilization give you better treatment."

"Don't think about it!" Bai Ningxiang immediately scolded, "Black Sea Civilization will never become your colony!"

He Xingzhou also directly stated: "Tao is different, not conspiracy!"

"Then there is nothing to say." Rafael said, "Since it is an enemy, we will go all out and do everything we can to deal with you."

"Get ready." Gray Wolf said, "I hope you can live through the hundred years of the competition!"

The two walked away, Yan Xin asked: "It seems that you have a big enemy!"

He Xingzhou said helplessly: "No way, who told us to start late?"

Yan Xin analyzed: "The two people, their respective civilizations started at least level 1.7, they can't do anything to you in the virtual universe."

"But if they discover the coordinates of your civilization and attack, then..."

"Soldiers will block, water will cover." He Xingzhou also wanted to have a peaceful neighbor, but the reality was cruel.

They were chatting, and the Green Goblin greeted: "If you want to develop civilization quickly, I have a document here, and you only need one copy of 500 Cosmic Coins! All are the experience of our civilization development. If you are interested, you can buy it and watch it. Communication is prohibited, and if one-on-one tutoring is required, an additional fee is required.”

"No wonder he told us so much just now, it was to sell classes!" He Xingzhou laughed dumbly.

"This is normal!" Yan Xin said, "Many like him, and some well-known interstellar builders, also undertake the task of helping other civilizations design and manufacture. One of their drawings can be sold for tens of millions of universe coins. !"

"You can even buy a planet directly! I heard that the top interstellar builders of advanced civilizations can buy a star system with the wealth they earn!"

"And the low-level civilizations near them, because of civilization worship, they directly and willingly become their subsidiary civilizations!"

Bai Ningxiang complained: "Civilization worship? I guess they think they are not their opponents, so they simply surrendered?"

Yan Xin said: "Almost, anyway, a top-level interstellar builder has a huge influence among civilizations! Because he represents the level of technological development and military strength of this civilization!"

If He Xingzhou understands something.

You should also improve your ranking and popularity, sell courses or sell blueprints, to earn more resources for Blue Star Civilization!

He Xingzhou stayed here for three full days before leaving after learning some information.

When leaving, Bai Ningxiang hesitated, sent him a document, and said, "Here is some experience in the development of a first-level civilization. Don't waste your money on buying classes. They are talking about irrelevant things."

"Thank you!" He Xingzhou thanked.

"It's okay, you just have to remember the agreement." Bai Ningxiang said, "Clean up Jupiter's Zerg!"

He Xingzhou went offline with doubts and returned to reality. He was still thinking about this question.

He Xingzhou immediately held a Blue Star Alliance core meeting to inform several commanders about the virtual universe and the Order Alliance.

"There are so many brilliant civilizations in the universe!" He Hongwei was extremely excited, "Humans are not alone!"

"But it's very dangerous!" Cui Weimin said, "For example, the Subaru Star Society, we have no conflict with them, just because they suspect that we are around the Subaru star cluster, they regard us as an enemy and an alien colony."

"If civilization wants to develop, it must need more resources! Territory represents resources!" Lu Mei said, "It is unrealistic to develop across the surrounding star fields, so these surrounding civilizations will become our enemies!"

Song Jinghong analyzed: "The commander-in-chief mentioned that in the Alliance of Order, there is a reward for destroying the Zerg. And clones or replicas cannot be used."

"The League of Order prohibits members from being with the Zerg!"

"I have a guess, if the Zerg of the solar system is a certain advanced civilization deliberately placed in the solar system, and after they swallow the solar system, they will become advanced Zerg. Then this advanced civilization will control or kill the Zerg, wouldn't it be possible to obtain greater Interests?"

"I also had the same thoughts as you." He Xingzhou said, "The Alliance of Order does not allow the civilization within the alliance to be related to the Zerg. Even the third- and fourth-level civilizations would not dare to anger the Alliance of Order."

"Before our solar system, no civilization was registered in the Alliance of Order. If such a thing happened, even the Alliance of Order could not judge whether the Zerg was intentionally put here!"

"There are too many possibilities here. The advanced civilization may do this for rewards, or the Zerg may come here naturally, or our enemies do this, or the enemies of the Order Alliance put the Zerg here... Maybe there are more Big conspiracy!"

"Right now we are too weak to find out."

"We must strengthen ourselves as soon as possible!" The desire to be strong spreads in everyone's heart.

He Xingzhou said: "Ten days later, the rookie competition of Interstellar Builders will begin, so within these ten days, we will formulate a civilization development plan."

"Every commander will go to the virtual universe to take a look. It is best for us to have a diplomatic representative who is resident in the virtual universe, so that we can keep abreast of the information about the virtual universe."

The subspace communicator that Bai Ningxiang gave to He Xingzhou could only allow five people in the virtual universe at a time.

"Okay!" The commanders were so curious about the virtual universe that they simply went in for a tour.

And He Xingzhou himself first received the rewards he got from the virtual universe.

In the outer space outside the blue star, a small wormhole appeared and sent his package here.

The aerospace mecha received all of them: "A set of first-level Zerg detectors (10), space signal relay station, Zerg biological information analyzer, and automatic patrol satellites of the star system (1,000)."

He Xingzhou left the Zerg Bio-Information Analyzer at the Sentinel Tower Research Institute, and launched the space signal relay station to a safe orbit outside the sun, which is the center of the solar system. The relay station is there, and they can have space signals through the relay station.

Ten Zerg probes were launched to the other seven planets in the solar system and the satellites of the more massive planets to detect Zerg information.

A thousand satellites patrolling the solar system automatically, all launched to the edge of the solar system, so that their orbits form a spherical structure that wraps the solar system. to prevent and detect enemies and attacks from before the solar system.

After doing this, He Xingzhou began to read Bai Ningxiang's information and make his own construction plan.

"According to them, building planetary mining ships, mining machines and some factories is a cheap plus." He Xingzhou calculated, "Now that the Blue Star is under our control, then build more mining on the Blue Star. Machines and factories, from land to sea, pile up basic industries first.”

"Then there is the technology system, the planetary communication system. I have built the Skynet satellite network system, which is limited to Blue Star communication. Next, tens of billions of communication satellites will be launched to all planets in the solar system, with space signal relay stations as the core. , to build a stellar system communication system!"

"The logistics system, there is now the Blue Star surface logistics system, and then it will be expanded to the Earth-Moon logistics and the stellar system logistics system."

"Energy systems, extending from surface grids to interplanetary energy grids."

"Large space stations, moon bases, spaceports, Starfleet..."

He Xingzhou listed the plans one by one. Some of these plans are complementary to each other, such as communication systems, logistics systems, and energy systems, all of which need to be built at the same time.

"At present, the upgrade of the logistics system is very important!" He Xingzhou thought, in order to make so many things in space, a large amount of resources and items must be transported into space.

Rocket launch alone won't work, even if they have spacecraft such as recyclable rockets, how much mass can they carry at a time?

How many times a day has to be launched, not to mention wasting energy, the efficiency is extremely low!

"The logistics tools connecting the surface and space include rockets, aerospace planes, aerospace carriers, and space elevators."

Humans can make rockets, aerospace planes, and air carriers. He Xingzhou aimed at the space elevator.

As the name suggests, it is a super elevator that transports people and matter from the surface all the way to space!

Judging from the thickness of the Blue Star's atmosphere, the length of this space elevator will be as high as 36,000 kilometers, which is twice as long as the 18,000-kilometer steel Great Wall, and it is still vertically spaced!

In the Interstellar Construction Association, the space elevator is a type of planetary surface technology giant, and you can get 5 points when you complete it. In the rookie competition, if you build a space elevator of sufficient scale, you can get 50 technology points! Equivalent to the technology points of fifty planetary mining ships!

Of course, He Xingzhou not only wants to build one, he wants to build at least ten! Ensure the timely exchange of materials and personnel between the ground and space.

...

Within ten days, the four commanders, as well as Xu Zhilan, Jiang Chan, and some important figures in the Blue Star Alliance had all visited the virtual universe through the subspace communicator.

Everyone, without exception, is not shocked by the virtual universe.

The virtual universe let them know that the Blue Star civilization was so small, it was just one of the countless low-level civilizations in the universe!

Those splendid civilizations have all kinds of technology that they can't even imagine!

Even on the edge of the solar system, there are some malicious neighbors.

Everyone's cosmology was refreshed, and they began to rethink the future of the Blue Star Civilization.

He Xingzhou is preparing to hold another global press conference to announce the event to the world.

The Blue Star Alliance rarely holds global press conferences, and the last time it was announced that He Xingzhou would become the alliance's supreme commander.

The Blue Star Alliance Headquarters Building is located next to the original Xuanwu base. This building is facing the ruins of the Xuanwu base, reminding everyone not to forget the blood and sweat shed by human beings in the era of cataclysm!

He Xingzhou wrote on social media: "Today's press conference will determine the direction of future civilization. I will announce two super events!"

His words have attracted the attention of the global media and the public.

"Super event? The last time Commander He announced a super event, or Xuanwu plan? What happened?"

"Isn't the alien Zerg attacking? It's only been a few years of comfort!"

"Don't be like this, I just got married! I don't want to fight Zerg again!"

"Shouldn't it be? I haven't seen any large-scale military operations recently!"

"Then what else could happen?"

People had different opinions and made various speculations, but none of them could guess what He Xingzhou wanted to announce.

At ten o'clock in the morning, China time, in the conference hall of the headquarters of the Blue Star Alliance, the media workers are ready, and people around the world are also waiting for today's big news.

In the spotlight, He Xingzhou appeared at the press conference.

He cut to the chase and said, "Hello, friends from all over the world, I'm He Xingzhou."

"The first thing I want to announce today is that we have discovered aliens, not aliens like Zerg! It's a real alien civilization, more than one!"

"In the star system around us, in this universe, there are countless civilizations, they contain various forms, there are plant civilizations, rock creatures, machine civilizations, humanoid civilizations, etc. And there is also a super-organization in the universe, League of Order."

"This alliance is a super civilization with the ability to cross interstellar! As a first-level civilization, we have joined the Alliance of Order, and will receive the help of the alliance to develop technology and resist the Zerg!"

As He Xingzhou said, the surrounding holographic screens used images to introduce some information about the Alliance of Order.

He Xingzhou's first news made the global media and audience fry!

"There are so many civilizations in the universe? Are we not unique?"

"Aliens discovered, and so many more!"

"The Order Alliance is so powerful that they can directly help us destroy the Zerg?"

"A lot of humanoids, is this true? I saw Miss Mermaid, Angel, Catwoman... It's so beautiful, I decided, I'm going to the sea of ​​stars and become a sea king!"

"Their technology is so strong, are we in danger?"

"There are other civilizations around us?"

Everyone is trying to digest this information. Fortunately, the emergence of the Zerg has made everyone realize that there are other civilizations in the universe.

Now that I know this, the acceptance level is higher.

He Xingzhou continued: "Some of these civilizations are friendly, while others are dangerous. As far as I know, the civilizations around us are not very peaceful."

"At the same time, we have to face the threat of the Zerg in the solar system, as well as the threat of the surrounding galaxies and other civilizations."

"So from now on, all space signal stations, both sending and receiving, must be reviewed and controlled by the Blue Star Alliance. Anyone without permission is not allowed to transmit a strong signal source into space, and violators will be punished against humanity. crime!"

He Xingzhou had actually made preparations for a long time. When the Xuanwu plan was proposed, some scientists mentioned this. At that time, it was just that Shenzhou did not allow any behavior of sending special signals into space.

Later, after the Skynet system and Xuanwu system were built, these behaviors were completely monitored and even more unlikely to happen.

It is a pity that before the era of cataclysm, scientists in various countries sent signals to the universe and actively exposed the location of human civilization.

He Xingzhou can only hope that these signals have not been discovered by surrounding civilizations.

This command, people can understand.

"The following is the second major event!" He Xingzhou said, "From now on, all mankind will enter the era of interstellar infrastructure!"

"From the blue star to the solar system, our industrial system and civilization creations must be covered in the entire star system! Everyone is part of the era of interstellar infrastructure!"

"This will be the only way for our civilization to become brilliant, so I hope everyone can actively participate, and you will get more for your dedication!"

"Maybe one day, when our civilization becomes an advanced civilization. You can become great scientists, builders, artists, etc. in the interstellar space, and even have the opportunity to become the captain of the colonized planet!"

"This is an era full of opportunities and hope. Whether you are a small person or a famous person in the field, whether you are born rich or poor, you will have the opportunity to reach the top!"

"Let's start the struggle together! Build a new solar system!"

After He Xingzhou finished speaking, the media in the audience shouted together, the whole world is boiling! Interstellar infrastructure, everyone has the opportunity to achieve themselves, this is a prosperous age that has never been seen in any period!

No matter how ordinary people are, they all see the light of hope that belongs to them!

Opportunities are everywhere. With quantum chips and biological computers, anyone can gain super memory and computing power and make achievements.

"Towards the interstellar infrastructure!"

"I want to be the captain! I want to take an alien as my wife!"

"A weak question, can I be a star thief? The kind that only robs aliens..."

"I heard that my blood was boiling, I resigned decisively, and I went to outer space to move bricks!"

"I want to drive a space battleship!!!"

"Director He, do you still need a girlfriend?"

"Crush the duck, go to outer space, dry the zerg, do the aliens, do it all over the universe!"
