After the rain, the autumn air is crisp. Li Xiang swings his homemade high-density chopping knife, effortlessly cutting down a bamboo stalk as thick as a bowl's mouth.
Suddenly, an ordina...
Chapter 387: The Beast Tide Rises Again, Mars Battlefield
After discussion, Jiang Caier and Li Xiang launched a major project, which is the Global Train.
Before, it was an underground transportation network, and now, it’s time to return to the surface, which is what more than 70% of netizens around the world are looking forward to.
As the master of the earth, Li Xiang can shape the terrain at will. Naturally, he will be responsible for the foundation construction of all segments, which can save a lot of trouble.
In the conference room, Jiang Caier unfolded a three-dimensional model of the earth in a holographic projection with a diameter of one meter. The golden magnetic levitation design route map extended between the continents like blood vessels.
Li Xiang closed his eyes and concentrated. The power of the planetary master realm turned the entire earth's crust into highly plastic clay in his consciousness.
“The Pacific Rim Artery should be like a giant dragon encircling the continental shelf.”
As Jiang Caier whispered, the wife followed the husband's lead, and the Pacific Rim Maglev Line that runs through four continents suddenly emerged: starting from the tunnel entrance of the Andes Mountains, it passes by the observatory on Easter Island along the coastline; when crossing the Bering Strait, a 100-meter-high transparent protective dome is deliberately raised to allow passengers to enjoy the dance of the aurora and glaciers.
Three branches are divided into three lines in the Siberian tundra: the northern line goes directly to the Arctic scientific research city through Murmansk, the middle line runs through the Sea of Okhotsk and connects the Far East Industrial City, and the southern line winds along the remains of the Great Wall to the Bashu Basin.
“The Europe-Africa Corridor should become a bond of civilizations.”
Jiang Caier tapped her fingertips, and another silver light track broke out from the Pamir Plateau.
This maglev network that spans Europe and Asia has blossomed into a steel flower at the hub of the Middle East: the main westward vein forks in Istanbul, the northern branch connects Vienna and Berlin through the Danube River to the levitation station under the Tower Bridge in London; the southern branch is laid along the Nile Delta, with twelve honeycomb shield stations rising in the center of the Sahara Desert, and finally connecting with the South Atlantic Undersea Tunnel at the Cape of Good Hope.
The most ingenious part is the design of the branch line network - each main line has an octopus-like smart track extending every 300 kilometers.
These adaptive magnetic tracks can adjust their angles in real time according to geological changes: some drill into glaciers to form spiral elevators, some build transparent ecological bridges above the Amazon rainforest, and some lay vacuum pipes along the Mariana Trench, allowing trains to travel through the depths of the ocean at a speed of 2,000 kilometers per hour.
When Li Xiang opened his eyes, which were filled with starlight, the entire earth let out a low roar.
The permafrost of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau automatically rolled up to form a radiation-proof roadbed, the magma of the East African Rift Valley was shaped into a natural shock-absorbing layer, and even the ice sheets of the North and South Poles condensed into superconducting tracks at absolute zero. What would have taken decades of geological transformation was transformed into a fleeting fold of time and space under the will of the planetary master.
It only took about ten minutes for Li Shen to change the world and build the entire vein foundation.
Within a dozen minutes, the entire design was accurately "materialized" on the earth and became a reality.
As for the subsequent specific construction and operation, it was handed over to Jiang Caier, who was her strong point.
…
After the construction is successful, ordinary people will be able to travel around the entire earth in one day by taking the maglev train, and can reach almost every underground city under the C Federation.
More than 95% of the world's underground cities have truly achieved rapid interconnection. Moreover, there are countless robot dogs, robot police, robot spiders, automatic heavy machine gun towers, automatic laser turrets, etc. along the way, so there is no need to worry about public security issues.
In addition to the artificial intelligence equipment controlled by Jiang Caier, there is also a team of extraordinary people in each place, which is organized and responsible for maintaining order, responding to some emergencies, and protecting the peace.
And these teams of extraordinary people are now under the jurisdiction of Shen Wen Qian.
She was originally the "old leader" of these extraordinary people. Now she has changed her identity. In addition, her own strength is as high as level 26 (high level of the Saint level), and she is Li Xiang's cousin, which is enough to convince everyone.
Even, she is very popular. Well, Shen Wenqian is now a super celebrity with more than one billion fans. There are countless people pursuing her every day, but Shen Wenqian doesn't care about them.
Li Xiang's uncle and aunt were not in a hurry and did not urge them to get married, because Shen Wen Qian was a saint with a lifespan of hundreds of years, so this was just the beginning.
When they enter the God level in the future, they will have a lifespan of thousands of years. Although they also want to hold grandchildren, if they don’t have them, then so be it. In the extraordinary era, the concept of marriage and love is naturally different from before, including some elderly people, whose thoughts have also changed with the times.
The launch of such a large project has naturally aroused heated discussions among netizens around the world. Before the Global Maglev was opened to traffic, many people started to make plans, planning which route to take and where to go and where to play.
Because, when you ride in an underground car, there is not much scenery and it is very boring, but this kind of surface magnetic levitation provides endless scenery all the way.
The blueprint introduces that various tourist areas will be built along the route, with artificial small suns or artificial small moons to simulate sunlight and moonlight respectively, illuminating some surrounding scenic spots beautifully.
Some surface cities with regional characteristics will also be built to gradually restore the former prosperity of the surface.
For an infrastructure fanatic, such a large project is not a big deal at all.
With sufficient energy and machinery, the entire line started construction almost simultaneously, and progressed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Some internet celebrities were born, becoming famous for their on-site photography of the project progress.
After the project was completed, they transformed themselves into travel bloggers and continued to gain traffic.
Those who joined the C Federation became "advanced civilizations", while those who did not join were still struggling at the "World War II level". Even artificial starch could only be obtained by exporting a large number of women of marriageable age to marry into the country.
Now, the C country federation is interconnected. Overall, the original C country men have a lot of room to choose from, and the gap in this area is shrinking. In the future, I am afraid that even "women marrying" will not be able to exchange for assistance. Those countries and underground cities are anxious. When someone takes the lead in surrendering and applying to join, the others will rush to join.
…
The Earth fleet arrived on Mars and began to build a base. They did not have smooth sailing along the way, encountered several breakdowns, and repelled some invasions by space monsters. But fortunately, they arrived on Mars without any danger.
Videos of the base's construction were sent back, creating another climax on Earth.
In fact, the enthusiasm for Mars colonization has always been strong and enduring.
Among the terrestrial planets in the solar system, Mars is the closest to Earth. People have long speculated that Mars was the old home of mankind.
Mars has an atmosphere, which is mainly composed of carbon dioxide, followed by nitrogen and argon, and a small amount of oxygen and water vapor. Nitrogen exists in the Martian atmosphere and in the Earth's atmosphere, which is the biggest similarity between Mars and Earth. However, the density of the Martian atmosphere is less than one percent of that of the Earth's atmosphere, and its surface atmospheric pressure is about 500 to 700 Pa.
However, in front of the man-made base, these are not a problem. When Chiba Yukio becomes the master of Mars, various conditions on the surface of Mars will slowly change.
The Lord of the Planet originally possesses the ability to regulate the composition of the atmosphere and the environmental climate.
Along with the fleet arrived, there were also a large number of agricultural and ecological restoration scientific research teams under Zhao Xueqing. Although Zhao Xueqing was not there in person, these scientific research teams are experienced and battle-hardened, so setting up underground farms on Mars will not be a problem.
There are also many extraordinary people in the team who are good at agriculture and communicating with plants, such as Lin Wanwan, a researcher under Zhao Xueqing in the past, who also followed as one of the backbones this time.
A researcher in a public research institution in Country C is equivalent to a professor in a university, and an associate researcher is equivalent to an associate professor. As a senior researcher, Lin Wanwan has a certain academic status. He is also a doctoral supervisor and has supervised many doctoral students.
She is best at insect pollination, and her mission this time is to breed bees and butterflies on Mars. Although artificial pollination is possible, it is not as natural as insect pollination.
Moreover, bees and butterflies are a very important link in the entire ecological chain.
Everyone is joking, in the future we will be able to drink locally produced honey on Mars.
The Mars base was built, and Jiang Caier's "Supercomputing Center" also moved into Mars. However, Chiba Xuexu had not yet completely integrated the Heart of Mars, so the first few phases of the Supercomputing Center's projects were concentrated in the underground base, buried deep in the depths of Mars, which is the Earth Computing Center.
The Martian version of the "Sky Computing Center" will have to wait for a while until Chiba Yukio completely controls Mars and clears the black fog. However, the production of quantum computers and nuclear fuel cells has already begun in full swing on Mars. Once the time is right, they will all be launched into space and networked in an instant.
In addition, many weapons, such as space rail guns, spirit shield defense matrices, etc., have also begun to be produced on Mars.
…
Just as large-scale construction was underway on Earth and Mars, unrest broke out in space.
The Earth "changed hands", the army of alien beasts that invaded the Earth-Moon system was completely wiped out, Mars was also taken over by the Earth's indigenous people, and a large number of immigrants were also carried out, shaking the entire solar system.
After all, truth will come to light sooner or later.
There are only eight large planets in the solar system, and we have lost two of them.
This was an unbearable burden for the Black Mist Star Region Space Beast Legion that invaded the solar system. Although there were many factions within the region and they competed with each other, they would never allow the human natives to take advantage of them.
On each planet, there were continuous roars of beasts, especially the roars of the exotic beasts in the God King realm and the spiritual fluctuations they carried, which reverberated endlessly in the space, spreading over tens of millions of kilometers with endless aftermath.
At this time, the winners of the other six planets have basically been decided, but it will take decades for the "winner" to merge the hearts of the planets. As for the sun, it is still being fought over by several powerful space beasts at the planetary domination level.
Some failed God Kings formed an alliance, leading their God-level, Saint-level, and countless space beasts below the Saint-level, to launch wave after wave of attacks.
After receiving the news, Li Xiang had no choice but to rush to Mars again to provide support. Originally, he didn't want to go out, but there was no other way. The base camp on the Earth-Moon system was impregnable and the strongest base, so there was no need to worry too much. However, on Mars, Chiba Xuexu had not yet completed the fusion, and several bases were just being built, so they were relatively weak in all aspects.
Originally, Yao Yao, Zhao Xueqing, Lei Xiaohui, and Ailin had been staying at home these days, planning to get pregnant, but now they had to temporarily put their plans on hold and follow Li Xiang.
As for Jiang Caier, she would naturally guard the Earth-Moon System's base camp.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
However, Jiang Caier is special. She has digital life clones almost everywhere, so she is actually on the front line of the battlefield.
Mars.
Endless space monsters are coming in droves, and the human base has already been prepared for it.
On the surface of Mars, some hidden entrances opened, lighting up hundreds of faint blue light tracks, and Jiang Caier's digital life clone opened billions of electronic pupils in the quantum matrix of the supercomputing center.
Hundreds of thousands of quantum computers vibrate synchronously, compressing battlefield data streams into nanosecond decision-making instructions.
"The honeycomb shield matrix is activated, and the energy gap is filled by area B7."
"Railway electromagnetic cannon array charging countdown: 3, 2, 1——"
As the supercomputing center runs, commands are issued one by one, sometimes hundreds of thousands of commands can be issued in one second, controlling all automated weapons and equipment on the entire battlefield.
For example, the twelve "Tianzhu-class" high-energy particle turrets suspended in the synchronous orbit of Mars suddenly turned, and the bright and dazzling light beams penetrated the black fog and the atmosphere, accurately piercing the core of the compound eyes of the three-headed Eclipse Scorpion, and the corrosive liquid it sprayed exploded into purple mist in mid-air.
Inside the underground bunker, three thousand "Xuanniao-9" unmanned fighter jets took off from vertical launch silos.
The ground shook as the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Heavy Armored Combined Brigades of the Mars Base rushed out of the Red Rock Passage.
…
"Superhuman team, attack!"
"Teams three, four, and five will make a detour to attack us. Teams one and two, follow us and attack Huanglong!"
The twin magatama also rushed out with their elite troops.
For a moment, blood and fire intertwined.
No one knows how long this battle lasted, but in the end the Mars base was not well-prepared and was overwhelmed by the beast tide, resulting in heavy losses.
…
On the Martian plain swept by a red storm, the twin magatama stood back to back on the edge of the crater rift. Not far away, the wreckage of several Xuanniao fighter planes was still emitting smoke.
The two of them were surrounded by the star halo unique to the God King Realm, but it seemed dim at this moment, not as crystal clear as before, and there were also crimson blood beads suspended in the thin atmosphere, forming a strange blood mist.
"Yugiri, can you still hold on?" Chaolu wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Sister, I can hold on. We must hold on until mom succeeds or godfather arrives!" Yugiri gritted her teeth, her eyes determined. Her armor was damaged and covered in blood.
"Well, sisters are united and their strength is invincible. Three more beasts from the Divine King realm are coming. Let's fight to our heart's content!"
"Three heads..." Yugiri was frightened, but still gritted her teeth and followed her sister.
Among the swarming army of alien beasts were three "Eclipse Scorpions" at the level of God King. The dark purple corrosive liquid sprayed from their tails melted a huge gap in the energy shield of the human base. Several underground ecological domes collapsed in the acid mist, and the space wheat fields that the agricultural team had painstakingly cultivated and Lin Wanwan's Martian bee breeding cabin were all turned into scorched earth.
The silver-white armor of the twin magatama was already covered with cracks. After an hour of hard fighting, Chaolu's left shoulder was pierced by the scorpion's claws. The little remaining spiritual power fought fiercely against the alien beast's poison at the wound; Yugiri supported her body with the broken blade, and her feet were on the wreckage of half of the wing of the Xuanniao drone.
They used the space folding technique to create hundreds of mirror images on the battlefield, but the scorpion's compound eyes still saw through their true selves. When the two scorpions simultaneously activated their "Meteoric Armor Shattering" innate magical power, the sisters' body shields exploded like colored glass, and the blood mist condensed into sad and beautiful red beads in the low-gravity environment.
"Is this going to kill me?"
"But we have killed the Nine-Headed Divine King, so it was worth it!"
At the critical moment, five streams of light tore through the Martian atmosphere.
Li Xiang swung the Xingwan Bengyue Stick in mid-air, and the shadow of the stick transformed into the inscription "Jiuyu Bengyue" that spanned a thousand miles, smashing the two scorpions into a deep pit.
Yao Yao's phantom of a phoenix spread out its wings to cover the sky, and repaired the damaged shield with the cleansing holy light; Zhao Xueqing waved her hand and scattered space wheat seedlings, and the green energy field instantly purified the corrosive acid mist, and the destroyed ecological farm actually sprouted new buds from the scorched earth.
Lei Xiaohui and Irene turned into golden and silver lightning, roaring fire dragons, and in an instant they cleared a vacuum zone a hundred meters wide in the beast tide.
Li Xiang let out a long roar, and the pressure from the planetary master realm caused the alien beast army to slow down. He joined hands with Yao Yao, Lei Xiaohui and Ailin to set up the "Starry Sky Forbidden Zone", and the remaining alien beasts were wiped out in the collapse of space.
Zhao Xueqing, on the other hand, held the magatama in her arms, and stretched out the buds of the tail vine, dripping spiritual dew into the mouths of the two women.
The spiritual dew secreted by the Divine King realm is a supreme elixir for healing. Soon, the injuries of the two women were stabilized and they gradually recovered, but the spiritual power that had been consumed in their bodies would take time to replenish.
Li Xiang asked the girls to help guard the base and rescue the injured. He turned into a stream of light, crisscrossing the surface of Mars, sweeping back and forth. He was like a man in an empty space in the planetary domination area. In just one day, he cleared all the space monsters on Mars.
After the war, Jiang Caier's supercomputing center also released statistics: 73% of the facilities at the three bases on Mars were destroyed, but the core quantum computer array was preserved because it was buried deep underground.
But there were also gains, the most valuable of which were the thirty-six corpses of the God Kings that fell on the battlefield on Mars.
This will add thirty-six God King-class space motherships to the Mars base, but the transformation will take at least a year.
During this period of time, Li Xiang is required to guard Mars to buy time for the transformation of the God-King-class starry sky mothership.
