The seventh planet of the supermassive star Lieyang 3, 1,500 light years from the center of the Milky Way, is slowly moving along a stable orbit.

Lieyang 3's Planet 7 has a diameter of about 19,000 kilometers and a mass 7.6 times that of the Earth.

There is no atmosphere on its surface, and it looks like a desolate rocky planet.

But inside it, it has been transformed into a paradise.

Because Planet 7 has a larger mass and a larger volume, the gravity on the surface of the planet is several times that of the Earth.

In order to better welcome the birth of the sage who may appear in theory, the human settlement on Planet 7 was built at a flat altitude of 2,654 kilometers underground.

At this time, due to the difference in density between the internal and external materials, the gravity on this nearly horizontal contour surface is exactly 1G.

Around 2981, more than 8,000 germinal ships of mankind arrived at the planet in secret and went directly underground.

Now, after just fifteen years of development, eight interconnected underground bases with clear division of labor have been built on Planet 7, with a population of 24 million.

On the surface, this planetary base with a population of 24 million is just one of the nearly 10 million bases of varying sizes built after the radiation of the nameless fleet.

But in fact, the embryos in each germinal ship that arrived here have been carefully selected, and each of the selected children and adult mentors is the best of the best in all walks of life.

This place has been built into a peak city that stands high at the top of the pyramid of human civilization.

In the past fifteen years, the Planetary Base No. 7 on the Fiery Sun 3 created a large number of technological innovations for the Unknown Fleet and the Morning Wind Empire. With only 24 million people, it created nearly 1% of the total wealth for the slow but steady technological progress of mankind in the past fifteen years.

One percent may not seem like much, but you have to know that the total population of mankind has reached hundreds of millions.

In order to speed up the digestion of the results of Planet No. 7 and to be able to transform the population into a powerful military, political and scientific integrated combat force at any time, in the seven planetary systems within half a light year of the Fiery Sun 3, humans have built large-scale production bases relying on unmanned equipment systems.

However, these production bases do not adopt a centralized and large-scale model. Instead, they rely on the special compound-eyed slaves of the Miner and Mi tribes, which are composed of tens of billions of small space units like small workshops. The

average volume of these small units is only a few hundred cubic meters.

The Miner is a pure silicon-based life form, with a body structure like a machine, without muscles, and its entire body is composed of pipes like the material pipes in countless chemical plants.

The miners do not need oxygen, nor are they afraid of radiation and solar wind. Instead, they can spread their ultra-thin wings like jellyfish in the universe, absorbing light energy with an efficiency similar to that of a combination of chloroplasts and Dyson membranes, capturing scattered gravitational energy, thermal energy, and even a small amount of real energy. Then, with the assistance of extremely high computing power, or by absorbing some other primitive substances, they transform these energies and substances into various parts, or robots of three levels with autonomous computing power: small, medium, and micro.

The Mi, who are half mechanical and half biological, cooperate with the miners to form a cooperative team from different races.

Each Mi individual can command tens of thousands of miners at the same time.

Millions of Mi and tens of billions of miners form a multifunctional industrial base with an extremely large overall production capacity, but seemingly scattered.

The entire production process is very simple. The Lieyang 3 production control department issues indicators and implements them to each Mi tribe. These Mi tribes then read the drawings, develop detailed plans, and distribute them to the Miners.

When it is necessary to produce small, medium and micro units, it is equivalent to having hundreds of billions of small and fine workshops, which are both flexible and efficient. When producing

large units, the Miners can also use their own biological characteristics to assemble and bridge them together to transform into a super-large production workshop.

The assembly limit of the Miners is as high as one billion, and they can directly handle and spit out a large unit hundreds of kilometers long in just one or two hours.

However, due to concealment needs, the Mi tribe and the Miners do not produce this kind of super-large equipment, but allocate 80% of the production capacity to nano-level integrated intelligent robots.

On average, each "workshop" can produce tens of thousands of robots every day.

With the help of stronger artificial intelligence, on average, each person on Planet 7 can control tens of billions or even hundreds of thousands of comprehensive intelligent robots.

These intelligent robots are combined in different ways in the daily lives of the people on Planet 7 to play different roles, such as mining, precision processing, or digging holes and building roads, so that the people on Planet 7, with a total population of only 24 million, can control this huge planet with a harsh natural environment and develop a prosperous underground base-type city underground.

In a sense, every person on Planet 7 can be regarded as an excellent intelligent pilot.

The elite people on Planet 7 represent another development direction for mankind, and have conducted in-depth thinking and exploration on how to control more resources with a smaller population.

So far, the system on Planet 7 has been running perfectly and seamlessly.

In addition to quietly taking root here to create technology, the real mission of the people on Planet 7 is to welcome the arrival of the sage Chen Feng and the Marshal Tang Tianxin who have "drifted" here for unknown reasons.

These 24 million people are all executors of the Nuwa Project and the Sage Project.

Within tens of light years of Lieyang 3, there are also huge organizations composed of hundreds of millions of people and more intelligent equipment lurking in the subspace, and they can change their development model from latent expansion to main battle fleets at any time.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon on October 1, 2996, the loud cry of a baby echoed in the delivery room.

A baby boy was born in the first underground base of Planet No. 7.

The baby boy was named Zheng Feng, not Chen Feng.

Although all preparations have been made and there are various signs that Chen Feng will be reborn here, no one has successfully located the disappeared fish-man corpse planet and the original gene research institute so far.

So all this is just a possibility and cannot be confirmed.

Zheng Feng can only be Zheng Feng now. If he wants to become another name, he must first prove his ability with facts.

This behavior is a bit of a consequence-oriented approach.

Humans will create the best external environment for Zheng Feng's growth, but how high he can reach is still Zheng Feng's own business.

However, no one knows what state Zheng Feng will be in.

Perhaps he has the memory of the sage since birth.

That would be the best. He can be verified by just completing the memory reading.

But this still does not mean that he can immediately occupy a high position. The ability of a person determines the position he holds. This is the iron rule set by the sage himself during his lifetime. Of course, he must abide by it. Otherwise, he will take other people's lives and the future of mankind as a joke.

But now is the tenth timeline. The technological development and comprehensive strength of mankind are very different from any timeline in the past. The performance and characteristics of weapons and equipment are also completely different. There is also an alliance system in the multiverse, so even the sage may not be able to adapt as in the past.

It doesn't matter. He will still be the spiritual leader of mankind.

Even if he is lonely and ordinary this time, humans will not forget everything he did before, and people are still willing to place their will to fight on him.

However, we have to consider both sides of everything. There is still another possibility, that is, people really made a mistake, and the wonderful coincidence of the Zheng family went wrong in Zheng Feng's generation. He is just Zheng Feng, not the sage.

Or, because the memory reading that the sage prepared for resurrection had problems, he was never able to recover his memory.

Then waiting for him will be another set of assessment system.

In front of him, there are three benchmarks: Zheng Chenglong, Zheng Mo, and Zheng Yifeng, and even Tong Ling is his benchmark.

If he could surpass the three predecessors in combat power, even surpass Tong Ling, and return to the throne of the strongest human, he would be invincible on the battlefield and always be able to do what others cannot.

At that point, it would not matter whether his past memories still existed, and he would naturally become a sage.

In December of the same year, in the same delivery room, a baby girl was born in an artificial incubator.

Since then, the Nv'ao Project has come to a successful conclusion.

New troubles immediately appeared in front of the human leadership. Zheng Yifeng, who had been lurking for many years, and Tang Tianxin's father Tang Shimin, two young people of similar age, simultaneously applied to leave Planet 7 and plunged into the anxious war ahead where the situation was changing rapidly.

In the past ten years, mankind has experienced a lot, and faced more enemies than in the past few hundred years combined.

Facing the three armies of the enemy, the Yunding War Zone gathered the most elite war potential of mankind, and gathered the coordinated strength of countless slaves. Although it was always at a disadvantage, it always stood firm like a mountain.

Although the project of converting the sky cave into a folding star gate has been repeatedly obstructed and destroyed, the progress of the project is still moving forward slowly and firmly.

Moreover, since 2992, as the 30 million sprout ships that were scattered at the time took root and sprouted in the distance, mankind once again began a long-lasting desperate rescue operation that gathered the power of the stars.

Although the three armies of the Compound Eyes surrounded the Cloudtop war zone, they were unable to break into the star field and wreak havoc.

Humans used a large number of persistent interference waves to cut off the possibility of curvature flight and folding flight, and used **, countless intelligent war machines, and slave soldiers to firmly pin the battle line outside the star field.

Of course, this was not just the work of the Cloudtop star field.

During the battle between the two sides, humans still promoted the multiverse structure. Countless human and slave rebel agents and spies went straight into the enemy camp, tirelessly trying to divide and disintegrate, and unite.

Although the progress is slow, from time to time, the compound eye slaves can rebel in groups and become human allies.

After the rebellion, the performance of these enslaved low-level civilizations is actually very ordinary. Their combat power is far inferior to that of human elites, but they are better in momentum. At the same time, humans also help the enslaved low-level civilizations to preserve their fire in the core area of ​​the Yunding star field, so that the combat units in these civilizations have no worries and have firm beliefs, and often achieve amazing results.

Moreover, the mutiny of these low-level slaves on the battlefield has continued to weaken the strength of the Compound Eyes army, greatly reducing the pressure on the Cloudtop Star Region, and gradually increasing the possibility of defending from the original one in a billion to now, but it has been more than ten years.

At the same time, the special forces led by Tang Xiaao first took a detour, and then continued to accelerate, successfully breaking through the enemy's defense blockade and entering the Galactic Center.

There is the core area of ​​the Milky Way as a barred spiral galaxy.

Although the Compound Eyes have transferred most of the forces of many slaves, there are still many old, weak, sick and disabled people and production bases left in their respective "mother stars".

Under Tang Xiaao's overall planning, humans spent eight years working hard and successfully launched an uprising of all races in 2994, and continued to advance towards the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A, until they were blocked by an invisible shield that was suspected to be the dome of the year, but with higher strength, higher resilience, and stronger technological blocking ability.

This invisible shield was like fog, covering up the situation near the Sagittarius A black hole and blocking all human detectors' detection channels.

Tang Xiaao began to lead his team to frantically bombard the invisible shield covering the two-light-year radius outside Sagittarius A.

Part of the Compound Eyes army that besieged the Yunding star field had to regroup and turn around to rush to the Yinxin, and began to besiege Tang Xiaao's special operations fleet, while preventing humans from cracking the secret of the invisible shield.

That is, three days before Zheng Yifeng and Tang Shimin requested to go on the expedition, Tang Xiaao's command ship was found.

Zheng Mo and Tang Qin led the team back to help, but unfortunately they were besieged together.

Then, a giant vehicle the size of a star flew out from the inside of the invisible shield. The giant cannon on the vehicle fired a cone-shaped fire beam with a radius of 0.5 light years, and Tang Xiaao, Zheng Mo, Tang Qin and others all died.

Zheng Yifeng and Tang Shimin could not sit still.

Zhou Donglai could no longer suppress the idea of ​​the two of them joining the war, and had to nod in agreement.

That evening, Zheng Yifeng, Liang Yun and Tang Shimin said goodbye to their children, boarded two fast shuttles and disappeared into the depths of the universe.

A newly formed special forces team was waiting for the two of them.

Zheng Feng was only two months old at the time, drooling on the ground.

Next to him, his childhood sweetheart Tang Tianxin was in the arms of an intelligent robot, looking resolutely at the shuttle disappearing in the distance.

Tang Tianxin was less than a week old at the time.

The scientific team who had been observing the two people were overwhelmed.

It seems that something is not right.

Tang Tianxin's maturity is beyond reproach, and she can be said to be born with knowledge, but Zheng Feng's performance is totally unworthy of the average level of human beings in the 31st century. How come he is no different from an ordinary child in the 21st century?

Some people think this is a good thing. After all, the sage himself is a person from the 21st century, and the slow development of intelligence is more in line with "historical facts."

This looks good.

But it also means that Zheng Feng does not have the memory of the sage, what can he do.

Another half a year has passed.

The half-year-old Zheng Feng is learning pronunciation very hard, and Tang Tianxin has already opened the "Outline of Modern Light Energy Weapons."

The executors of the Sage Plan were mentally broken.
