Why the hell... several mbers of the Luminous Alliance, plus Steve and Peter, ca to the Androda Galaxy, we have to bring up the recent developnts of the Solar System.
Since starting the construction of the rcury Base, Stark began leveling up the construction tech tree. Primarily, due to the future developnt planning of rcury, there would be a completely automatic power collection base, and the first task was automation.
Programming was a piece of cake for Stark, he ca up with an extrely complex robot logic network and made an adaptive adjustnt to different robot models according to this network. Then he integrated them into the building, becoming a part of the machinery itself. This way, the problems of robot energy and damage repair were solved quite conveniently.
The next was the technology of nano folding and unfolding. The Nano Armor that Shiller gave him was thoroughly researched by Stark, and although it hasn't reached that level of folding rate, it was able to fold most of the large machinery within the load range of transport robots.
What followed was simpler, a mage opened a portal, and the transport robot carried things in while Stark began to operate from a huge screen on this end.
The specific process was actually like playing so assembly-line building gas. Find a mining spot, put an mining machine, place a refining machine, an assembling machine, then set up an assembly line, build a factory, optimize efficiency....
With the technology to fold large machines, it could be completely like in a ga: Stark points at a screen on Earth, and the construction robot on rcury positions itself and a large machine unfolds imdiately.
Of course, as the technology was not very mature yet, there was a risk of explosion during the unfolding process, thus it couldn't be used on Earth. But on rcury it didn't matter, if it exploded, another one was simply built.
In the early stage, the probability of explosions was rather high, so Stark began upgrading the recycling system. He modified the large machinery to be deployed, making the explosion range completely controllable, then recycling the destroyed materials, reaching a recovery rate of over 80%. In the end, it even increased to over 98%, almost like dismantling and rebuilding was free.
Afterward, Stark and the technology consultants of the Far East Nations cooperated to begin setting up a logistics system between bases. For instance, elevated highways, high-speed railways, and then the laborious process of routing, etc.
If this was just a normal person, playing this might have burnt out their brain, but for Stark, it was no big deal. With Jarvis, the super AI assisting, before long, the rcury Base was built in a decent manner.
But then a problem arose again, the rcury Base was to experint with ways to extract solar energy. But staying in rcury would not be sufficient, they had to move closer to the star. However, every ti they got closer to the star even by a bit, the temperature exponentially increased. Normal tals couldn't withstand the high temperatures of the sun. So important equipnt had to use Vibranium and alloys of Vibranium.
Recently, the black sheep of Wakanda had almost been shorn bald by Stark. And even if Wakanda was willing to participate in the construction of the Solar System and was keen on increasing the importance of vibranium, the mining technology was a limiting factor. After mining for several years, they didn't mine a lot. Even though they were very desperate, they still couldn't make Vibranium materialize out of thin air.
Stark also knew that it was not advisable to completely depend on one source. Moreover, these non-renewable resources should indeed be saved and used wisely.
As a result, the developnt of the Solar System was once again limited by materials. And Stark also knew, to achieve a leap in technology, focusing solely on material resistance is far too slow. Instead of spending years grinding a wooden stick into a spear, it would be better to look for iron and gunpowder and make a gun directly.
Quite coincidentally, the Sulfur Dwarfs could extract energy from their star. According to Symbionts, the reason why this race developed better than the others and was able to develop its independent technology systems was due to a special tal present in their galaxy. The dwarfs called it molten steel.
In addition, the Androda Bug Tribe holds cave clusters with excellent light transmitting and insulating properties. There are materials with high magic compatibility in the territories of the High Elves and the Spirit of Totem. These materials are perfect for mages to build fixed portals.
"Why should humans co all the way to the Androda Galaxy, overthrow the evil United Chairman, and restore justice to the people of Androda without being rewarded? Even peacekeeping needs to be paid for, right?"
"We don't even want money, just a little mining right. How much can a normal surface civilization mine?"
"See, the Sulfur Dwarfs have no objections!"
As Shiller said this while sitting on the couch at the Speaker's Mansion, he took a sip of the local fruit wine.
Strange rolled his eyes and said, "I bet that as soon as they agree, you'd hop on a spaceship and go mining, not stopping until you have filled up the entire warehouse..."
"How could that be possible? If anyone is going to, it would be Peter. Flying a spaceship isn't as fun as I had imagined, I'd rather not."
At this mont, Magneto and Charles stepped in, one after another. Shiller turned to look at them and asked with a smile, "So, how's the new ho?"
"Very good," said Charles, quite pleased.
After all, whether it was the location, structure, or environnt, this Sky Island was excellent. Over the past years, that selfish Chairman had done nothing but collect precious resources and technologies from everywhere and used them in his private garden.
The entire Sky Island was built into a beautiful utopia, abundant in resources. The mutants effectively seized the private mansion of a billionaire, they were, of course, delighted.
Moreover, compared to a whole planet, this Sky Island, which is only half the size of Earth, is much easier to defend—Magneto's magnetic field can perfectly cover this place at least.
The Earth can house billions of people, while there are only a few million mutants. Living here can be considered sparsely populated.
Shiller is also quite satisfied with this because Charles' next sentence is: "Indeed, there are still many problems with the construction here, such as not enough houses, insufficient infrastructure, and no idea about urban planning..."
"No worries, you won't be moving here overnight, you can completely plan everything on Earth, use a few years, and gradually transform this place into the dream ho of the mutants."
"Actually, that is the problem." Charles revealed a sowhat embarrassed expression, he said: "Although mutants have strong individual abilities, when it cos to construction, we really are..."
"Beast proposed a plan, but there is no clue about the thodology and materials, it sounds simple, but it is actually a massive project, and once it's not planned properly, it could result in a big ss in the future..."
"Don't worry, what Earth transfers is not raw materials but technology and ideas. When it cos to base construction, Stark is entirely capable. You also saw the construction speed of the rcury Base a few days ago, didn't you?"
Charles nodded and said: "That indeed was nothing short of a miracle. But we also have to consider aesthetics. After all, this place is where people live, we can't turn it into a robot factory."
"Rest assured, Nick has already sent out invitations to the world's most famous landscape masters, as well as several professors specializing in environntal aesthetics from world-renowned universities. They will provide you with the most suitable environntal transformation plan."
"Besides, you can also use local materials. You've already seen the exterior of the Speaker's Mansion — this special material is available on the planets within the star system. The Bug Tribe has just sent us a ssage, thanking us for exposing the conspiracy of the United Chairman and indicating that their civilization suffered the most substantial losses in the destruction of their fleets."
"If the mutants can guarantee their safety, they are willing to give up two mining planets on the edge of the star system, which can directly provide you with ready-made minerals."
"The leader of the High Elves also intends to negotiate. They want to exchange so of their technology for ours, they are lacking in engineering manufacturing compared to other civilizations, especially in terms of control over electricity and magnetism — we may be able to get so nice things from them."
"The Spirit of Totem is a purely elental race; this has nothing to do with the mutants. However, if they trade with the mage, you can also ask the mage to see if you can acquire so enchanted items."
"In conclusion, this is the benefit of the prosperity zone; everything can be traded, all parties can learn from each other, and progress together."
"Moreover, compared with Earth, this place is more suitable for developnt; Earth, at present, looks like a remote uninhabited area where you have to rely on your own excavation."
Charles agreed with this. In the past few days, he watched Stark accumulate skill points rapidly. To be honest, he felt that Stark had done his best, but he was still constrained by various resources. There was no choice but to calculate every bit of resource and use them where it matters.
Even if Stark has maxed out his wisdom, he still has to run far and wide to the Androda Galaxy to mine resources.
Looking at it this way, the mutants have picked up an enormous bargain. The facilities in the core star region of the Androda Nebula are well-developed, and there are also established interstellar laws. It is very suitable for intelligent beings, especially for those that are kind-hearted to neutral.
After Magneto left, Charles sighed, picked up his cup, took a sip of fruit wine, and asked: "Such a good place, you are willing to just give it to the mutants?"
"Not giving it to the mutants, we're all humans, or at least a part of human civilization. You are the first step for humans to step into space, the vanguard and pioneers."
"Perhaps you're thinking, why don't ordinary people move here with such good resources? Even if not all of them move, it would still be considered interstellar colonization if so of them move. But it's not that simple."
"You may feel that the Bug Tribe, High Elves, and Spirit of Totem are very friendly now, but that's because the mutants are powerful enough."
"The leaders of these civilizations have more or less guessed the capabilities of Magneto. They are wary of the mutants' robust individual combat power. Compared to pushing you into desperation, cooperation is a better thod."
"However, if ordinary humans were to co here, our power and technological level won't be sufficient to hold our own. At that ti, these seemingly affable alien civilizations would reveal their true colors and tear humans entirely apart."
"This is the law of the interstellar society, survival of the fittest, the law of the jungle, and humans are still far from ready to step onto the interstellar stage."
"Alright." Shiller changed the course of the conversation, he said:" Where is the descendant of the Kree? It's ti to talk about the fifteen starships that the Kree owe us..."
