My empire of stars

"You have to know that this is a huge solar array covering the surface of a star. Have you not considered how much resources this will consume the empire???" Li Mingze slammed the table. You must know that even if he is a small person in the universe, The sun also has a surface area of ​​six trillion square kilometers!

Six trillion square kilometers! This is not 60,000 square kilometers! It’s a trillion!

"Your Majesty, please calm down. We have already found a solution."

"With the unremitting efforts of the Imperial Biological Research Department, we have found a method that can greatly save materials." The scientists were startled and hurriedly explained.

"Let me hear it." Li Mingze frowned, obviously not believing it.

"We just need to build a basic framework of eight rings in the star's orbit."

"The Imperial Biotechnology Laboratory has a special algae plant that can absorb solar energy to generate energy and grow."

"Now the biological laboratory is adding various possible gene fragments to its genes."

"Once this algae transformation is completed, we can directly control its growth and let it cover the surface of the star along the framework we built."

"Although the solar energy obtained by this algae is only one-tenth of our solar panels in the same area, its advantage is that we only need to provide water and nutrient solution, and it can grow rapidly!"

"Moreover, once we have more advanced technology in the future, we can definitely improve on the already established framework." The scientists took out another holographic projection.

"Oh, that's a good idea. How much is your planned construction cost?" Li Mingze asked what he was most concerned about. If the cost is too high, it would be better not to build it.

"About the cost of three Titan-class battleships, and the size of the alien fleet must be reduced because we need to use a lot of nutrient solution," the scientist said cautiously.

Li Mingze, who was drinking water, spit out a mouthful of tea.

"You are kidding me. It takes the resources of three Titan-class battleships to build one!" Li Mingze put down his teacup and said angrily.

"Your Majesty, this is a strategic building. Once it is completed, we will be able to obtain inexhaustible energy. We will not even need to build another power plant to meet our electricity needs for hundreds of years."

"Of course, when the energy it produces is not enough, we will be able to build a second Dyson sphere." The scientist looked like your majesty did not know what he was talking about.

"Not only that, it can also be put into use while it is being built. As the area built becomes larger and larger, the energy we can obtain will become more and more." The scientists rubbed their hands.

In fact, what they thought was that after building the Dyson Sphere, the Empire would have enough energy to send the spacecraft to another time and space, and then they would be able to experience time travel for themselves.

"Let me think about it." Li Mingze turned around and closed his eyes, thinking.

He suddenly thought that if the Dyson Sphere was completed and the space-time shuttle could transport the spaceship, wouldn't he be able to take Tianyi and the others to escape to another time and space when a disaster occurs in this time and space, or when the empire faces a desperate situation?

Or, can he lead a fleet to conquer other parallel spaces and let his empire span countless universes?

"I agree. The construction of the Dyson Sphere will start at the end of next year. This will not delay the second Titan we are building."

"In addition, you can convert half of the alien warships into nutrient solution for use." Li Mingze nodded.

As the empire's technology continues to develop, the combat capabilities of the alien battleships can no longer keep up with the empire's fleet. Especially after being equipped with the advanced beam cannons of the Davis Security Council, Li Mingze has completely looked down on the alien fleet's combat effectiveness.

The current alien warships are used as patrol frigates and cannon fodder.

Time passes day by day, and one year has passed in the blink of an eye.

The Empire's second Titan, the Imperial Light, has been successfully constructed, and the construction plan for the third Titan-class battleship was stopped by Li Mingze.

The construction of the new super building Dyson Sphere has officially begun, and most of the empire's resources have been devoted to the construction of the Dyson Sphere.

The shipyard stopped building warships and began producing the frame structure of Dyson spheres. The empire's fleet size stabilized at the pre-war state, except for one more Titan-class warship.

In addition, six rounds of special ammunition for the planet-shattering cannon that were very effective were produced and distributed equally to the two Titan-class battleships.

The assimilation work in the asteroid sea has also been a complete success. The people in the asteroid sea have forgotten their former country. They all now belong to the empire and are members of the great Sith Empire.

The assimilation work in the Davis Sector has also come to an end. A large number of Davis people who disobeyed the empire's rule were sent to prison, leaving only echoing voices in this sector.

With the complete integration of science and technology and the restoration of all resource extraction, the empire has returned to the golden age of development. A large number of new planets have been continuously developed, and the empire's national power has steadily increased.

At this time, the Scientific Committee fleet, which had been flying for more than a year, finally returned to the Scientific Committee's star domain.

After a long period of development, the Science Committee's colony star has expanded to a distance of hundreds of light-years away.

Along the way, Li Mingze kept passing by colonial stars that were being developed. There was an unknown metal triangular building in the orbit of these Scientific Committee colonial stars.

Is this the Science Committee's colony ship? Li Mingze's heart was full of doubts, and he was full of curiosity about everything about the Scientific Committee.

"Your Majesty, we are about to arrive at the stellar fortress of the Human Supreme Science Council." Tianyi appeared next to Li Mingze, who was enjoying the scenery of the committee's colonial star through the holographic screen.

"Oh? How long does it take to leave hyperspace?" Li Mingze turned off the monitor and stood up and asked.

"There are three seconds left, 3, 2, 1, we are here." Tianyi chuckled.

The scenery outside the spacecraft window suddenly changed, and a special celestial system consisting of several planets in the same orbit appeared outside the spacecraft window.

Several planets surrounded by various buildings are constantly revolving around the star in the middle. There are also some spherical space stations in the starry sky that are comparable in size to these planets.

"It's so spectacular. How much materials do these planet-sized space stations consume?" Li Mingze, who has learned about the strength of the Science Committee's warships, knows that this kind of space station is definitely not a showpiece like the Pilgrim civilization. It seems huge but has low combat effectiveness. (from the current perspective)

"Your Majesty, we have sent a docking request and we are about to enter the stellar fortress." Tianyi suddenly said.
