"From this moment on, the longest period until the third test is twenty standard galactic years.
"This is because the assessor teacher has taken into account the difficulties you are facing and has deliberately lengthened the assessment cycle. Considering the development speed of the explosion of Dark Star's mechanical civilization, the assessment cycle should be ten years.
"According to the preliminary analysis, we have obtained various technologies to fully upgrade Dark Star. I will first use a hundred times acceleration in the virtual Dark City to quickly implement various technologies. It will take half a year of actual Galaxy time to cultivate them in the Dark City.
Half a million experts of all types.
"The problem now is that our infrastructure construction speed must be increased, otherwise we will not be able to respond to the subsequent expansion of our Dark Star forces..."
Lu was making the report in an orderly manner.
The more Yang Ming listened, the more he felt guilty.
Is it really okay to do this?
On the day of Luofeng Alliance's press conference, he lifted most of the restrictions he had previously placed on Dark Star, allowing Dark Star to continue to expand exponentially, but now he can't help but feel a little scared.
There is no way, Dark Star's development potential is indeed too strong.
The metal city covered the inner layer of the earth's crust, building a huge city with several floors above and below.
Lu smiled and said: "Button technology is probably a technology that can be mastered by a level 2.5 mechanical civilization. It is just right for Luofeng's technological level. It only requires more than a thousand patents to perfectly cover the technology's research and development process."
Hearing this, Mimi Li sneered, threw the makeup box aside, and said calmly: "Please keep your voice down, and be careful with your work. It won't be fun if you are exposed in advance."
"Well," Lu smiled, "His Majesty Edwan's ability to withstand pressure still needs to be further strengthened. The current situation is far from the worst case scenario we expected."
Yang Ming grinned:
She picked up her watch and sent a message to Lu.
The woman laughed a few times: "That's not impossible. Captain, just help me grab a few more men."
"The powerful Sherman family hides in the shadows after all. In the final analysis, they are just fragile human individuals. Don't be afraid of the power in their hands. They can only exercise power while they are alive."
Half a minute later, Yang Ming's head flickered slightly.
Kolev asked in a low voice: "Do you want an army of machines to sweep across the galaxy?"
"Captain! The images from the front have been sent back. The enemy is resting. There are about thirteen ships... There are also two ships with obvious military markings. They should be a subsidiary country of the Sherman Empire. We are sure
Want to attack?"
Yang Ming's eyes lit up: "This thing is pretty good. Make more of it and we, Dark Star, can use it too."
"Boss, the cost of each of our operations is too high," a strong woman muttered in a low voice, "This drone costs a lot of money."
Yang Ming made a gesture of wiping his neck: "Help the Foreign Affairs Bureau to update and buy us more time!"
Yang Ming sat up, covering his neck and moving around, and saw the figure in the room.
"I must be human," Yang Ming smiled, "I am Levi Sherman..."
"You're actually separated from that female captain and you still won't break up!"
Yang Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of sharpness:
She didn't want Uncle Hanton to think that she was a girl with loose behavior.
"It's okay, I'm just a little insensitive to numbers."
Mudd, it’s him who has lost his sight!
Lu smiled and said:
"Boss, you have equaled Levi Sherman in terms of progress in the Twilight Assessment, which will bring about a series of changes.
"There is one more thing, I need to ask for your permission," Lu said softly, "The server on Yaha planet, the little thing left by my senior, I want to try to open it now."
Yang Ming had no idea how much harm it would do to a mechanical thinking body like Lu to be kicked out of the Emperor Star Circle network two or three times!
It's completely comparable to what humans encounter in childhood.
She was still dressed in a short shirt and hot pants, with a pair of fair and slender beautiful legs casually draped over the table, a small belly button, an eye-catching curvy waist, and vaguely contoured abdominal muscles, which made her beautiful at the same time.
, with an added sense of youthful movement.
Silence fell in the office.
"I asked the teacher and confirmed this fact again and again - after this upgrade is completed, I already have the same core as her, and she cannot control me or affect me."
Lu said slowly: "Time, we only need three to five years now. I can complete the hardware upgrade and allow the Dark Star Fleet to obtain various magical abilities. These are all due to your original plan, boss."
Take the plunge.”
"Lu, show Adwan our Dark Star and Dark Star Fleet."
Lu suddenly smiled happily and was ready to go for a big fight.
"Why are you so anxious, Lu? It just so happens that I have a few plans, which are also related to your senior."
Yang Ming said: "It is one thing to make plans in anticipation, but it is another thing to actually encounter pressure. Edwan is extremely anxious now. The results of his hard work in the past few years are on the verge of being destroyed by the Sherman Empire. Who would replace him?"
They won’t be able to hold it any longer.”
"this!"
"Advanced technology comes from an ancient ruins. There are assessments left by high-dimensional civilization in the ancient ruins. Levi Sherman is a former candidate. Now, I have arrived at the location where he arrived back then."
Kolev's old face darkened and he cursed: "You are acting like a tyrant! Give me a helmet too!"
"That's okay. Anyway, I don't have to do this myself. You just need to inform me."
"Yes, the development of Dark Star is only outside the Sherman Empire," Yang Ming raised his head slightly, "We have all gone in the wrong direction before, Edwan, or in other words, our thinking is too narrow and has always been limited.
In conventional political and military games.”
"In this way, each Luofeng Empire only needs to install a few container-sized cabins in the tail compartment of each battleship, and release drones together on the battlefield. One hundred main battleships can additionally exert a force comparable to ten large space carriers.
The combat effectiveness of the ship.
Mimi Li raised her eyebrows and said calmly: "Wait a moment, let me ask the boss who supports our operation, where our income mainly comes from."
It’s a plan that can really come true!
"Now we only need to make preliminary arrangements, build a network island, and physically isolate the server, which is easy to do.
Lu blinked: "Boss, are you ready to make some plans in advance?"
Yang Ming said slowly:
"But unlike Levi Sherman, he chose machinery and life... You don't need to ask in detail, you can probably understand it, but I chose machinery and evolution.
"It's approved, let's go and do it."
at the same time.
However, when she clicked on the avatar, all Mimili saw was a text message, her mouth twitched slightly, and she cursed angrily:
Lu cleared his throat, held a folder in his hand, and began to report seriously:
"There are three types of technologies currently applicable to Luofeng that can quickly enhance Luofeng's military strength, and each type has a series of supporting mature technologies.
Mimili immediately said: "Release the detection drone, use the most expensive one."
Boss Yang muttered: "Okay, that means we have eliminated button technology now?"
"Do it!"
"We will first expand Dark Star's fleet to a thousand-ship level to ensure victory in a high-intensity local war.
"In addition, you chose machinery and evolution, and we have obtained a lot of mechanical technology that Levi has not obtained.
Adwang shook his head honestly: "Isn't she a secretarial robot?"
"Yes! Captain!"
…
Lu was stunned for a moment and wondered: "What else are you going to do, boss? Don't we already have development opportunities now, and we only need to delay it for three to five years?"
"What? Captain?"
"You don't have to," Yang Ming said, "You are not targeted by the Sherman Empire. Even if you are targeted by agents, I will destroy your brain before they catch you."
A projection screen appeared on the side.
Edwang clenched his fist slightly: "You do!"
Mimi Li was stunned for a second, then she subconsciously pursed her lips to apply lipstick, picked up her fan-shaped eyelashes with her fingers, and pulled down her shirt to cover up her career line.
"Hey!" Edwan scolded, "Can you stop gasping!"
"It's clear, it's clear!"
Before there was a chance, the great pirate queen, Miss Mimili, the chief of protocol of the Molly Miss Group, was sitting calmly in front of the captain's flag, holding a powder puff and applying some bright makeup to her delicate-skinned face.
"No, Dark Star is just forced to develop," Yang Ming said, "What I want is a civilization, not a war machine. Dark Star will control the scale until I complete the assessment, and it will serve as a subsidiary part of the law to upgrade the civilization.
"
Mimi Li stood up as her legs swayed, walked quickly to the console, crossed her arms and stared at the several bright lights flashing on it.
Adwang's pupils were shaking, and he almost jumped up.
"boss."
"You dare to use our name to rob merchants and blow up ships every time. You are even more unscrupulous than us. Oh no, a hundred times more unscrupulous!"
“The most preferred option is cheap drones and their transport carriers.
"yes!"
The series of data reported by Lu made Yang Ming feel dizzy. She stopped talking and said warmly:
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Yang Ming showed a faint smile and said slowly to Lu:
"It's not an intelligent machine, it's a humanoid mechanical civilization," Yang Ming said warmly, "To put it simply, these are my subordinates, and now, I have a plan."
The corners of Yang Ming's mouth twitched slightly.
"These fake pirates are simply insulting our profession!"
"Give me a white-skinned man, I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
Edwan shouted in surprise.
"What direction?"
"In the field of machinery, at this stage and in the long future, no civilization can be the opponent of the omnic Twilight original civilization."
——In order to complete this action, she first added a pair of spectacle frames to the bridge of her nose.
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Are you confident?"
"That's Dark Star's development plan, not mine."
"Get out!"
"okay!"
"Well, I listen," Edwan frowned, "As long as you don't tell me that you are not a human but an omnic, then I can accept it."
An abandoned resource star that looked familiar to Edwang appeared in front of him. Then, the outer layer of the resource star was pulled out, revealing the dense metal structure inside.
At this moment, the Dark Star Base No. 1 has fully occupied the planet and can develop into a powerful planet with one billion mechanical thinking bodies - robots for short - at any time.
Lu's lifelike figure stepped on high heels and arrived at the sofa where Yang Ming was sleeping. He lowered his head and said, "Boss, everyone is here."
The woman trembled a few times and quickly returned to her post.
"Then what," Edwang looked at Yang Ming in confusion and pointed to the helmet on his head, "What is this?"
"Hahahaha, just kidding," Yang Ming raised his eyebrows, and then continued, "To be precise, Levi Sherman and I share some of the same experiences. You should be more cautious about Levi Sherman's development path.
Very familiar with his sudden rise and taking advantage of technological differences to sweep across the galaxy."
Around Mimili, a group of fat, fierce-looking women were operating various instruments, and they kept muttering some vulgar words:
"I obtained an extremely important piece of information from your teacher, information about your senior manager."
About two galactic hours later, intense light appeared deep in the meteorite belt.
"Boss, this is just for Luofeng's emergency use," Lu Feng asked, "We also have more advanced 'swarm' technology, a swarm of dust-level suicide drones that can only be built by a perfect third-level civilization. This kind of unmanned
The aircraft fleet can be disguised as dust, and when the local fleet has no defense, like a black cloud in space, it can completely envelope and penetrate them, and then launch a suicide attack."
"Really?" Boss Yang said without any embarrassment, "Then report it again."
The woman hurriedly said: "What I mean is, we can let those men like bean sprouts fly an airship over for investigation. There is no need to spend so much money on spy drones."
"A kind of black technology that you can't find anywhere else in the galaxy," Yang Ming said with a smile, "This is an instant memory helmet. Next, you will participate in our discussion throughout the whole process, but it will not leave any information in your brain.
This is done out of respect for you, Mr. Emperor of Humanity."
Yang Ming said: "So, you don't have to worry. Even if Luofeng encounters some setbacks, as long as it can continue to exist, it will be able to turn around when the time comes. Mechanical civilization will develop independently and has nothing to do with Luofeng."
"Once these concentrated firepowers are used, they can cooperate with the main warships to complete the asymmetric suppression of enemies with equal ships."
"I won't do it," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Adwang, have you understood Guina's fighting power?"
"Luofeng must also keep up with the technological upgrades here. Try to provide Luofeng with some black military technology that sounds reasonable to others and will not be too outstanding."
"I just need your permission, boss."
Lu raised his lips: "I have already made my selections just now, boss, you didn't listen carefully!"
Therefore, Dark Star's power can only be used as Yang Ming's last trump card and a secret supplement to Luofeng's military strength.
"What are you afraid of? This is what we lack the most right now," Mimi Li said calmly, "Do you think drones are more important, or our lives? Our pirate group's main focus is a safe robbery. If this
If you don’t understand the concept, then don’t mess with me and sit at the men’s table from now on.”
Lu said in a low voice: "Boss, the Sherman Empire may want to destroy the Luofeng government and cultivate new puppets."
A pirate group consisting of twenty-three small and medium-sized ships is sailing near the dangerous meteorite belt, seemingly looking for something.
"The same kind."
Even Guina can only wait at the door at the moment and is not qualified to participate in this small discussion.
Near the border of Luofeng Empire, in the quiet deep sky.
Mimili cursed angrily.
"It's useless, you know too much, my dear first officer," Yang Ming said with a smile, "Dark Star cannot be announced to the outside world. If it is announced, we will all be the mortal enemies of mankind."
"The whole ship is preparing for an assault. This operation will annihilate the target! Team one and team two join me!"
"There should be no problem for Luofeng to survive for three to five years now. If we take a step back, the worst thing is that the Luofeng alliance will be shattered and Luofeng will be beaten back to what it was five years ago."
"Kill them! I'm going to use my sexy butt to crush their heads!"
"What plan?" Adwang felt his mouth was dry.
"Lü, the three newly surveyed border resource stars...start developing them immediately."
Yang Ming's voice was a bit hesitant:
"Of course, we still prepare for the worst."
Lu’s eyes were very firm:
Inside the planet, nearly a thousand ships of various types docked quietly, half of which were small ships. Judging from their appearance alone, their combat effectiveness was not low.
Yang Ming said slowly:
"In the next three years, the number of ships here will double, and I have already built three new bases."
"This is really a good idea!" Kolev shouted excitedly from the side, "You are a white ghost! You can easily kill them!"
"Found them!"
Mimi Li nodded calmly: "What you said makes sense, I'll let your sweetheart go by next time."
In today's Milky Way, for a planet with abundant resources, a normal fertility rate, and an uncongested environment, the cycle for the human population to double would take about forty to one hundred years.
Kolev asked: "Don't I need such a thing?"
"This is the best way to reasonably and quickly improve Luofeng's military strength.
Of course, the larger the Dark Star is, the higher the risk of exposure. Once it is identified as a super-large third natural disaster, an omnic crisis, it will attract attacks from all political systems in the galaxy.
Adwang's fingers trembled slightly.
Edwan suddenly said: "You just said that now in the empire, your tone is a bit wrong. You have other plans, right?"
Yang Ming folded his arms and leaned on the edge of the console, and breathed out softly: "Did you hear the call I had with Edwan?"
Luofeng Empire Palace, inside Edwang's office.
"In the next five years, the number of ships here will triple, and we will have the strength to fight against a complete imperial battle group, without counting Luofeng's own strength."
"This time we have obtained a comprehensive technology called 'Button', which can complete the miniaturization design of the mechanical body and produce some drones with combat effectiveness comparable to small attack boats, but only the size of a fist, and require less resources.
rare.
Yang Ming:……
"Okay, okay, you are the boss, I am just a part-time worker."
"In the next ten years, there will be a giant mechanical civilization behind Luofeng, which will have the initial strength to fight against the current empire."
"Omnic! What kind of omnic crisis is this!"
The cycle for doubling the number of robots is only related to the resources obtained, the speed of mechanical body production, and the improvement of related supporting facilities.
Yang Ming strolled over with his hands behind his back.
Edwan:……
Ritsu pushed up his glasses.
She actually said it very conservatively.
“Why do we need to collide head-on with the behemoth that is the Sherman Empire?
"Destroy them from within, disintegrate them from within.
He looked at Edwang and said sternly: "Edwang, I can have a showdown with you today."
The woman at the radar console shouted excitedly.
This group of tough women fell silent instantly.
Yang Ming said: "The Foreign Affairs Bureau can attack us, and we can also attack the Foreign Affairs Bureau! They have their political methods, and I have my own way of dealing with them! The basis of politics is human individuals, and policy makers are a small number of individuals who hold power.
, and these individuals are very fragile!”
Edwan:……
In fact, there are only Kolev, Dabic, and Adwan.
"Yes."
…
"If you want to defeat the Sherman Empire, you can only start from within. I have other plans that can be implemented simultaneously.
Under Law's control, Dark Star can double its mechanical population within a year!
It is not a fantasy for a mechanical civilization with comprehensive technologies given by the omnic Twilight to secretly develop for decades to challenge the established overlords of the galaxy.
At this moment, he didn't know how to describe the man in front of him, but Edwan felt the burning flame.
Is it desire?
No, that's not desire or ambition, it's more like fighting spirit.
