Arriving at the industrial star cluster, Nash t up with Aykroyd, the leading scientist in charge of the Mother Core Ships.
"Supre Leader. What do you need this ti?"
Having automated the neon battleship production process, Aykroyd had finally freed his hands.
At the current mont, he was eager to continue so personal experints.
However, seeing Nash arrive, he had a faint premonition that he would be dragged into another whirlpool of work.
"I want you to calibrate these 10 tier 7 mother core ships. I need them ready in a few days." Nash said, taking out the mother core ships from his storage ring.
The ships were smaller and sleeker than what they currently had. However, in terms of efficiency and quality, they were superior in every way.
"Where did you get these mother core ships?" Before Aykroyd could even voice a complaint, his eyes were already glued to them.
As the industrial heart of a civilization, their appeal to a materials scientist like him was beyond doubt.
"The Azure Heaven Alliance gave them to in exchange for sothing."
"They just gave them to you?"
Looking at Nash and seeing he wasn’t joking, Aykroyd was utterly shocked.
Just what had he exchanged to get a heavyweight team to part with these industrial marvels?
"Anyway, can you do it? My schedule is a little tight." Nash didn’t elaborate.
"It shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll have others help with it. However, this might affect the production of the Neon Battleships."
Right now, most of the scientists are occupied with the production of the Neon Battleships and the Grand Array.
To calibrate the mother core ships, he would need as many hands as possible.
"No problem. You can delay the Neon Battleship production a bit. It’s no longer the priority."
Initially, Nash’s plan for the Neon Battleship was to earn money and attract more people to join them.
Now that he could earn more and build stronger connections through the dark energy purification device, it was naturally less important.
Of course, when Nash had so spare ti, he would still do his best to deduce a higher-tier dark technological battleship.
Perhaps a tier 6 battleship wasn’t worth much anymore, but what about tier 7 or 8?
Once he was able to deduce such blueprints, money would no longer be a sufficient asure of their worth.
"No longer a priority? What happened?" Aykroyd asked in disbelief.
Based on the work and effort everyone had poured into creating and promoting it, the Neon Battleship should have been their symbol of identity.
"You’ll understand in ti..."
Leaving Aykroyd without an answer, Nash returned to his residence.

A few days later...
After concentrated experintation and trials, Nash finally produced a finished prototype of the dark energy purification device.
The device was spherical, with a diater of about 100 ters. Compared to the Neon Battleship, which stretched several kiloters in length, it was compact.
However, in terms of efficiency, it could convert 10,000 units of dark energy into 100 units of pure energy per hour.
By comparison, the Neon Battleship could only convert 1,000 units of dark energy into 3 units of energy.
Whether in efficiency or speed, the dark energy purification device surpassed the battleship by more than a dozen tis.
There was also the effective range to consider, approximately 5 tis greater, reaching a radius of billions of kiloters.
To cover an area one light-year in radius, one would only need 30 to 50 billion machines operating in tandem.
Of course, compared to the universe, that was still quite small. After all, even the Sun Star Void Area was asured in light-years.
Still, once the dark energy purification machines had cleansed an area, they could simply be relocated to another.
If one only needed to protect a single planetary system, two or three purification devices would be more than sufficient.
The energy they purified could even serve as a regular power supply for that planetary system’s civilization!
More importantly, the greatest breakthrough of the device was how easy it was to manufacture.
Compared to a battleship asuring thousands of kiloters, the dark energy purification device was a small trinket.
Previously, it had taken nearly ten thousand people to produce one Neon Battleship per day.
Now, given the size of the purification device, a single worker could produce two with the sa level of effort.
Using this calculation, they could theoretically produce 75 billion purification machines per year.
75 billion! One had to know that the Azure Heaven Alliance had only requested 10 billion in exchange for 10 tier 7 mother core ships, along with all the other conditions.
"This output is terrifying!"
Of course, all of this was only theoretical. Aside from the skill level of each worker, whether they had the industrial capacity to sustain such a volu was another question entirely.
"We need to take it step by step."
While it was easy for Nash to engrave the runic symbols into the purification machines, he wasn’t sure how well others would fare.
Still, if they could achieve a production capacity of 30 billion per year, Nash would already be satisfied.
Tucking the blueprint and device into his storage ring, Nash flew toward the industrial star cluster in the Sun Star Void Area.

"Supre Leader, you’ve arrived. The mother core ships have been calibrated." Aykroyd greeted him as Nash landed.
"Good. Here is the blueprint for the new dark technology you’ll be producing. I’ll also update the corresponding runic system shortly. What do you think?"
"A new dark technology?" Taking the blueprint, Aykroyd couldn’t help but frown.
Sure enough, as he suspected, he would be working overti again for the coming months or years.
However, as he flipped through the blueprint, his eyes gradually lit up.
"Is this a stripped-down version of the Neon Battleship? No... it seems more optimized and refined!"
Reading through the description, Aykroyd finally grasped the machine’s purpose.
Based on the core design of the Neon Battleship, Nash had optimized its dark energy absorption capabilities.
Although he couldn’t yet see the full scope of its applications, just the ability to convert useless dark energy into usable energy was already revolutionary.
