Chapter 229

If you really want to restart your research, you can recruit scientific research talents from other civilizations.

[Regarding the topic of space jump, every civilization must have conducted research. The only difference is whether there are any results and whether the results are useful.]

[We can still find a group of professional research talents. ]

[This matter can be handed over to Lu Ze. He happens to be in the White Tower Trading Area, so it would be convenient to have him keep an eye on it.]

“…”

That sounds nice.

Recruit?

It's called recruiting, but it's actually kidnapping.

Qi Heng felt like holding his forehead. It went without saying that these kinds of people were also great treasures within their respective main civilizations. What conditions could he offer to make them "betray" the main civilization and join the Tianjia civilization?

But not all scientists are unethical guys. People like Jayol are not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath.

"As I said, this time's development path is 'stability' and 'peace is the most important'. Let's put aside our previous habits. Robbery and kidnapping are no longer suitable for this era."

In the last game, the Tianjia civilization made too many enemies, and the consequences of being hated by others were not severe enough.

[As long as we offer the right bargaining chips, it is not impossible to make them change sides.]

A0 has a different view, and it also provides some data to support the feasibility of the plan.

Lu Ze used similar methods to recruit several talented individuals to join the Ashes Mercenary Group. According to the reports sent back, they get along very well with the Zerg within the Ashes.

The so-called similar method is that Lu Ze first bribes, and if the bribery fails, he uses carrot and stick together, using both deception and threats to "hire" a group of talents that Ashes urgently needs with high salaries.

As for whether the other party is happy or not? In short, once you get on Ashes' ship, don't think about getting off easily.

"The people Lu Ze digs out are different from those we need. Those who defected to the main civilization by relying on force are different from those who used their brains."

Even if scientific research talents really betray the main civilization, it is questionable whether they can successfully escape from the star field under the jurisdiction of the main civilization.

We can't send people to infiltrate these civilizations and wait for an opportunity to abduct their scientists... Wait, it seems that's not impossible?

Qi Heng thought about the group of people he had trained when he asked Lu Ze to build an intelligence network, and planned to send them to various places where the insects had purchased the latent insects of the Tianjia Zerg civilization.

The main task of lurking is to transmit intelligence and find out how many Tianjia Zerg are inside the target civilization, but if there is an additional poaching task, it does not seem to affect the first two tasks.

The common problem of intelligent life means that even if civilizations develop to the interstellar age, their internal structure is not monolithic.

In the interstellar age, frequent exchanges between civilizations may actually make it more likely that some scientific research talents will flow out.

If you can really find the right one, then every one of them will be a pleasant surprise.

...It doesn’t matter whether their character is good or bad, as long as they are useful to me.

Once they survive the current lack of young talents in the Tianjia Zerg, they will no longer be of any use. At that time... the competition of survival of the fittest will naturally eliminate those who cannot keep up.

This matter still needs to be left to Lu Ze.

"Next time Lu Ze reports, you can discuss the details of the 'Talent Introduction Plan' with him." Qi Heng and A0 said.

Looking around at the environment where the strong wind blew away the sand, he couldn't help but laugh. In such a place, no one would be willing to come to Tianyun Star without some special methods.

If that doesn't work, let Lu Ze ask [Xuan Huang] to set up a research institute in the West Ring Star Belt. It is not necessary to bring people to Tianyun Star.

Perhaps it would be more convenient to establish the research institute in the Western Ring Star Belt. It could just be affiliated with some forces under a random name... No one would have thought that a research institute would be related to the Zerg.

Gathering place No. 2.

Looking down from space, the area occupied by this gathering place on the surface is very compact. Although it is divided into 49 districts, the boundaries between each district are not obvious.

However, if you zoom in, you can still see that there is a building that appears at a certain distance.

That was an exchange point established by the Ikar civilization and managed by the One-Horned People.

The one in District 1 is the largest, and each district has smaller ones to meet basic daily needs... The original chaos has become orderly under Qi Heng's rectification.

Originally, the Zerg had been living a difficult life under the oppression of the One-Horned People. By getting rid of the One-Horned People, most of the order would be restored.

As for the remaining part, he let the one-horned people work for him, subtly changing the life in the gathering place.

If you ignore the bad environment, the overall situation is good.

Near the middle of each area, underground construction never stopped for a moment, so that the underground traffic routes could be dug before the expected time.

The underground transportation lines are being reinforced as they are being built.

Because it was located deep enough underground, even before digging to the surface, no Zerg noticed what had happened to the area that had been deliberately cleared and enclosed by the One-Horned People.

These locations were surrounded by several meters high iron sheets. Before they were demolished, the Zerg who had lost their wings had no idea what was going on inside.

At first, the Zerg were curious, but the harsh winter brought a sharp drop in temperature. If they didn't have to go out, the Zerg would rather stay at home.

As a result, not many Zergs continued to pay attention to what was inside the iron sheet.

Until today.

The one-man numbered 034, along with his colleagues, walked to the iron fence in the freezing cold.

Their bodies are the product of genetic adjustments, so even temperatures below minus ten degrees Celsius are not too unbearable, not to mention that they are wearing cold-proof clothing.

"Tear it down quickly and go back early." 034 said to 047.

The unicorns all look the same, and it is difficult to tell them apart without looking at their numbers.

The arrival of the harsh winter season has made the exchange work they are responsible for much less stressful.

It’s not because the weather is too cold that no Zerg come.

Mainly at the request of that terrible lord, they changed their previous practice of withholding supplies, and all those who came to exchange supplies would be exchanged as long as they were not hoarding too much supplies.

The exchange price is also one-third lower than in previous years.

In this case, the Zerg will naturally exchange as much as they can. Once they have exchanged enough in the front, they will certainly not come back later.

047 reached out, grabbed a part of the iron fence, and pulled it hard.

"Hurry up on your end, too."

The schedule for dismantling the fences was announced a long time ago, and they dared not delay on this matter.

Even the Zerg people in the gathering place could not see the changes as clearly as the One-Horned People. They were able to put all the fantastic plans on track in a short period of time, and they could not disobey them.

In addition, he has always suspected that the adult and this mysterious force that suddenly emerged were actually developed by the Tianjia Zerg, and the unicorn man has never been able to stop feeling terrified.

The Ikal civilization is far away and the Star Alliance is out of reach. The only ones who are most guilty are the jailers who are responsible for guarding the Tianjia Zerg.

They can't imagine what will happen to them after they lose their value.

The unicorns are originally legal commodities, tools created by genetic manipulation. To be honest, they have even less human rights and the right to life than the Tianjia Zerg.

Who would talk about this with the goods they bought?

Every unicorn has the same worry in their heart, and in order to prevent that terrible future from coming true, they are now working hard to demonstrate their own value.

Not only did they carry out the tasks they received with 100%, but they also invested 1,000% of their enthusiasm in the tasks, just to make that adult see that they knew they were wrong and that they were trying to "atone" for their sins.

The iron fences were dismantled and folded with force and then piled aside.

This place is completely different from when it was fenced off a month ago. An entrance leading to the underground is exposed, and stairs extend downwards.

The entrance is protected by a semicircular metal shield around the perimeter. Although it still feels like an unfinished construction site, the initial form of an underground transportation network is already apparent here.

A blue-tailed butterfly flew out of the entrance, followed by a group of insects, which spit out mucus at an extremely fast speed to reinforce the surroundings and make it smooth.

Exclusive people 043 and 047 felt a chill when watching this scene.

The existence of the original Zerg is an open secret to them. The successful construction of the underground transportation network is entirely due to them. The one-horned people who have gone underground to receive supplies are even more familiar with their existence.

But this does not prevent them from feeling disgusted and frightened when they see the Zerg in the distance.

There are only a few races in the entire galaxy that have not been bullied by the Tianjia civilization. Except for the newly emerging civilizations, most races have an inherent fear of the Zerg.

That's because their ancestors once faced the Zerg in its heyday, and faced the fear of being powerless and only becoming food, which was eventually engraved in their genes and passed down.

043 and 047 looked at each other, not daring to disturb them, and slowly backed away until they were at the farthest distance, then turned around and left quickly.

Behind them, the original Zerg did not stop, and soon their work was nearing completion.

By the time the original Zerg crawled back along the way they came, the underground transportation entrance had completed its final rest, and soon a group of mechanical spiders no bigger than a palm took over the subsequent work.

The mechanical spider walks with its lower legs close to the walls and ceiling, while its upper limbs firmly grasp the wires.

They continued to fix the lines, and then the robotic arm with its own levitation ability grabbed the energy lamp components that were delivered at an unknown time, and quickly installed the energy lamp on the top surface.

All the way down, the slogans and pictures on the wall are posted neatly.

After walking up the first flight of stairs, escalators began to appear. When you went down to a depth of nearly 100 meters underground, a wide platform appeared in front of you.

Because the underground city is too far from the ground, ordinary escalators are not suitable, so the design takes into account the inclined underground roller coaster track.

By taking advantage of the distance between the two, tracks at different levels are built between the entire No. 2 gathering place and the underground city, so that the train can maximize its carrying capacity.

The original Zerg were responsible for building and laying the rails, and later asked Ji Lin to purchase stabilizers and clutches that would allow the train to run on the rails at a relatively high speed.

With the train leaving the factory and the technological support of the fourth-level civilization, the underground express train SG series has perfectly achieved the expected results.

The author has something to say: Because the effect of the previous medicine has decreased a lot, I started to feel a little uncomfortable, so the update this week is not very regular QAQ

I have made an appointment to go to the hospital, but I don’t know the specific two days I will be out. I will indicate this in the leave application note when the time comes.
