Chapter 1021: Tree Spirit Salesman

In fact, the busy daily life is also very interesting, and this is when I follow Lilina and personally guide ...... Well, mixed with the idea that came after a few days of the dryad's work to build a home.

The tree elves need a new home, and after we have solved the problem of all the sleepers, this issue is in front of everyone, they have a population of 2.6 billion, have their own ** cultural system, and are another weak divine creature created by the goddess of life who doesn't even know the name, these characteristics add up, which means that we have to give these elves at least a ** planet as a new home. ,

Now they temporarily live on the home planet, but the home planet lacks the facilities and resources needed for the survival of carbon-based colonists, Gaia has activated three super huge ecological domes, but they can only meet the needs of the tree elves for a short time, and the active ghost environment of the home planet is also a mortal threat to ordinary races at any time, so they need to move as soon as possible.

The fact that the Dryads were the last of the old empire's tribes, that they had fulfilled the last mission that the old empire had given to their people, and that they had brought vital intelligence to the new empire, had made Sandora and I feel a special affection for these pointy-eared elves – or, to put it bluntly, a liking – so we gave the race an extra privilege: a planet in shadow space.

Now the shadow space has expanded to an incredible size, according to the bubble, it is now about the size of a galaxy - this refers to its full border size, in fact, the edge of the shadow space is gradually transitioning to the impossible zone, and the last is connected to the void, so it has about a quarter of the space that is unusable, but even if it is equivalent to three-quarters of the galaxy, this is an exaggerated size, it is hard to imagine that in the beginning its prototype was just a projection of the city of K into another dimension. Now that the expansion of the shadow space has been temporarily stopped, and it is estimated that it will not start to expand again for a long time, it is currently the optimal size of the bubble, and too small is a waste of bandwidth for the shadow space control network. Too much will lead to a decrease in stability.

With such a vast space, the places we can use are still limited, many military facilities, even the giant facilities like the planet fortress manufacturing site, cover an area of no more than the size of a star system, and the ninety-nine percent of the areas in the shadow space are standby areas, and Sandora has planned to gradually fill these gaps with colony stars and military fortresses in the next few thousand years, and now the tree elves have become the first non-Xiling permanent residents of the shadow space. We've created a small star system about a hundred astronomical units away from our parent planet, Gaia, and the sun of this star system was picked up the last time the bubble came out of the bubble to play......

Well, I'm not wrong, it was the girl who picked it up, you know, little bubbles like shiny things. Last time, she led Ji Shanshan and a ticket of royal guards out of the palace to hang around, and saw a very shining star at a very appropriate angle, Her Royal Highness the princess ordered this thing to be picked up on the spot, and there was still a shallow person who accompanied her out of the palace at that time - I don't need to explain later, it is not strange that an ignorant little girl and a brainless big girl get together and what happens, after confirming that there is no life around the star, the royal guards actually dragged this thing to the shadow space. But after dragging it back, Little Bubbles lost interest in it: Her Royal Highness wanted a bright ball the size of an egg, not this nuclear reactor with a radius of 780,000 kilometers, and she didn't expect the toy she fancified to be so big when she got closer.

This somewhat oolong star has been sitting idle in shadow space for months. It has been used as a test site for the Misaka probes, but now it has finally come in handy, and it has been renovated, resetting the core of heavy elements that have aged a little, removing the reaction waste, replenishing enough hydrogen and helium that are beneficial to the health of the stars, and losing a little fat, and then dressing up as the sun of the tree elves.

The new star system currently has only three planets, and the innermost layer is a resource-rich mineral planet. We found it in a desolate sky area. It is then dragged back to the Dryad as a source of industrial material for future development. The second planet is located in the habitable zone of the new star system, and this is where the new home of the Dryads is located. The planet is slightly larger than Earth - with a surface environment similar to that of the Green Star, and its predecessor was a decommissioned planetary battleship, formerly known as the "Dawn of War", which was knocked out by a shepherd's suicide ship during the Battle of the Great Nebula, and has not been completely repaired to this day, due to the original inefficiency of the early "Zero" class planet battleships, and Tavel has obtained many crucial new technologies from the Warsong, this type of retired planet battleship is basically obsoleteSandora had been struggling with how to put these war relics back to use, and now we've finally figured out one of the uses: giving the Dryads a home. The starship, which has gone through many battles, has re-covered the thick crust of the earth, re-established the rivers, lakes, seas and atmospheric system, and can start migrating as soon as the basic atmospheric balance is stabilized. Now it has a new name: Oasis. The name was unanimously agreed upon by the Dryad Navigators, who wanted to honor their homeland in this way.

At the outermost end of the new galaxy is the ancient starship that has completed its historical mission: the Green Star.

Green Star is now unsuitable for life, its core is highly cooled, the mantle structure is completely destroyed, it lacks sufficient geological change power, and more importantly, the layer of green gel crystals covered by its surface has deteriorated, it has been exposed to harsh environments for tens of thousands of years, and may even resist the void, resulting in that layer of gel shell becoming a forbidden area for life, the cost of removing the shell and transforming the green star is enough to make three colony stars of the same specification, after consulting with the elders of the tree elves, Sandora and I decided to abandon the reconstruction of the Green Star and instead place it in the outermost part of the new galaxy as a monument to history.

As for the Oasis Star, which was originally located in the center of the earth, it has now been transferred outside by space technology, and it now looks ugly, and it can no longer see the lush and fantastic beauty it had once been, and after the Mother Tree was stripped from it, it left behind countless huge ravines and deep holes that ran through the whole planet, and in the caves only the carbides that had accumulated by plants for thousands of years and some rather ancient guardianship devices: these devices had even been forgotten, after one esoteric and complex ancient device after another broke, The Dryad Navigators gave up on repairing these things altogether. The planet, which is smaller than the Moon, is still the Moon of the Dryads, which is placed in the orbit of the new Oasis. Twenty-two days orbit around his home planet.

On the Oasis—a term that will henceforth refer specifically to the new home of the Dryads, the Eco-Planet that has been transformed from a Star Battleship—Lilina and I and several Dryad Navigators personally attended the launch of the renovation project, including the Grand Matriarch as the representative of the Dryads and the former Captain of the Green Star, the oldest of the Dryads. The Grand Patriarch sighed softly when the first atmospheric control tower was lowered from a low orbit to the surface by the carrier and began to rumble.

"It's finally here. Thank you for your generosity. ”

Smiled: "Your contribution to the empire will always be remembered, and you deserve it." ”

Actually, I almost said this just now: What's polite, it's all my own people - this sentence didn't come out. Because Lilina pinched my little finger in time, this girl has been with me for a long time, and now she knows who is next to her.

"Actually, the Dryad didn't have a deep friendship with the Empire when he was there, right?" Lilina looked up at the Great Patriarch, "I remember that not long after you were rescued by the Emperor, something happened to the Empire." I didn't expect you to be so loyal. ”

"The Dryads are a race of commitments," the Great Patriarch thought for a moment, and added, "Of course, more importantly, we can't find where the brakes are...... meaning that their journey of tens of thousands of years is completely due to the fact that they can't stop.

Suddenly I felt that this old lady was too real—are you fit to say this to my face?

Lilina couldn't help but be a little stunned, and at this opportunity, the Great Patriarch began to pull the elders around him to look at the towering atmospheric control tower on the Great Plains in the distance, which was one of the most important buildings in their new home. The elder of the Dryad was too old, and when I met him in the Green Star Control Room, the old man was already a little confused. Today he seemed to be a little more rickety, the former starship captain was still wearing his fleet uniform that he would never change, looking at the tower in confusion under the guidance of the great patriarch, and then suddenly shouted: "You say, we have arrived at the station?" ”

His voice was so loud, but the Great Patriarch had become accustomed to it, and replied with the same loudness: "Yes, the mission is accomplished, this is the new home of the Tree Elves......"

"We're going to live on the surface?" The old man shouted in a louder voice. "Oh. Okay, go find my log. Let the boys prepare some air chambers, maybe the atmosphere will leak again......"

The Great Patriarch stretched out his hand to me helplessly: "He is confused again, and he thinks that Green Star is on the journey." ”

Looking around, there was an old dragon clock, all the Green Star Navigators were old people, the old lady like the Great Patriarch was actually the youngest one in the Navigator team, they had been in working for a long time during the journey, and had spent too much time outside the dormant cabin, Green Star-, when the Navigator was mostly in the prime of life, and now, their captain was too old to remember his own name - but he still remembered his captain's log. I think that perhaps the old people should be dealt with before the Dryads move into their new home, they deserve to be compensated for their brutal 10,000-year journey, and I should be able to compensate them for everything they want: youth, life, good health, and even a new life in a newborn body, which doesn't seem to be a difficult thing to do, at most let Tinker Bell drill his own loopholes again......

However, when I raised this, the Grand Patriarch and the navigators shook their heads at the same time.

"That's enough, this life," said a gray-haired old man, smiling open-mindedly, "the Dryads live for more than 100,000 years—that's according to the New Empire's way of dating, and the God-given Mother Tree gives us a long lifespan, which most dryads squander in luxury compared to other short-lived races." But I think at least we old guys have a better time than the other Dryads, and we accomplish something that seems like a great task, and we don't have much nostalgia for this life. The ancestor of the Dryad left a message: the soul of the traveler will eventually be tired, and now we want to rest, and we have nothing else to ask for. ”

Feeling that their choice should be respected, he no longer insisted on it, but also promised that if the navigators asked for anything, the empire would do its best to meet them.

When she and Lilina leave the new oasis, she brings up some of her plans.

"The new Oasis Star will be built for a while, and the Dryads will not all immigrate to their new homes anytime soon. Now they are temporarily shunted to other worlds. Our Macro Realm is developing rapidly, and in many Realms, the 'Time and Space Authority' is even a visible organization that can actually influence the pattern of the Realm, although it is not public. Many of the Dryads who have been diverted out of the Dryads are now living in the Cosmos Realm, arranged by the local inquisitors or commissioners, some of them live in various bases under the name of the local Authority, and some are taken in by nearby families, so I discovered some interesting characteristics of this race. ”

Seeing my cooperative look of curiosity, Lilina smirked.

"They're really born travelers – or rather. Diplomat. The Dryads are very adaptable to this kind of transfer across the world, and even some of the younger ones, who have been dormant for tens of thousands of years, are still very interested in this kind of life to live in the otherworldly world. They were able to adapt to the culture of the New World in a very short period of time, and they mastered the local etiquette without a teacher, and the tree elves who were arranged to live with the local people were even more surprising, and I was worried that they would affect the daily life of the families who were responsible for hosting them. The message back said that they had agreed with everyone that these mild-tempered elves were born to be Goodwill Ambassadors! ”

To be honest, I didn't know much about these details before, I knew that Gaia was responsible for temporarily placing these elves at the beginning of the Dao, but then they were transferred to the Immigration Management Department, and the Immigration Management Department was linked to the Time and Space Administration, and now it seems that the military capital of Shadow City is indeed not suitable for arranging a population of 2.6 billion, so these tree elves were sent to various parts of the Hongshi Realm to temporarily settle down, which was originally an emergency move, but it seems to be ...... Are the elves adapted?

"There are exceptions, of course." Lilina added, "The navigators, the staff who have been awake for long periods of time during the voyage, and the last group of dryad civilians to enter the hibernation pod, they are tired of any kind of travel, these dryads make up about ten percent of their race, that is, two or three hundred million people, and these people want to have a stable home, so we can arrange for these two or three hundred million people first." It just so happens that the ecological dome group at the beginning of the new oasis star can accommodate so many people. Invisibly, our workload has come down. ”

"And then?" I instinctively had a plan for Lilina, she was used to finishing the little things first. The rest of the story is the main event.

"And then? And then we have two billion salesmen left," Lilina shrugged, "Boss, haven't you noticed that your empire has a colonial bureau, a local colonial governor, and a fleet, but it lacks liaison officers who run between the colonies, and envoys who are in contact with the lower world, which is not normal!" The censors of each world realm are equivalent to the role of colonial governors, what they should do is to come to Shadow City on a fixed day every quarter to report on their work, instead of coming to report in person every once in a while with a little trivial matter, and the emperor ** people of the Time and Space Administration should not run around outside all day long, many members of the Hongshi Realm are remote and desolate small places, but when contacting them, they need to send people from the headquarters - if you compare your empire to a country on the earth, Then the current situation is that the pigs in any small mountain village are not giving birth, and the capital has to send a department-level cadre to go down to condole, don't you think something is wrong? ”

After thinking about it, he shook his head: "I really didn't find ...... before"

"Of course, the most important reason is that the Imperial soldiers are really not suitable to act as envoys anymore," Lilina had a defeated expression on her face, "Now when the communication between the capital world and the border world is basically sent to the imperial soldiers, I don't mean that those big soldiers are not smart, it's just ...... Loading the gun while waiting for the president to sign the contract is probably only possible for your big soldiers......"

"......" seems to be true!

"It's close to the people, it's close to the people," Lilina looked distressed, "At the beginning of the establishment of the Hongshi Realm, it was an organization for the bottom civilization, but as a result, you got a group of imperial soldiers as messengers, which community did you see that it was the uncle of the People's Liberation Army who collected water and electricity bills?" ”

Finally defeated by Lilina's endless brilliant metaphors, she raised her hand and surrendered: "In other words, you plan to let the Dryad join the Temporal Authority and act as a ...... What's that called? ”

Lilina glanced at her: "Liaison officer, you see, those tree elves have a steady and kind personality, patience and responsibility, and affinity, which is suitable for the work of liaising with those ordinary civilizations, and then they themselves are a vassal race of the empire, and they can be regarded as your cronies like the Azeroth Salvation Army or the Eden Federal Government Army, and then they can be absorbed by the whole race into goddess believers, and now the goddess of life cult is jointly promoted by you and Sister Sandora in the Hongshi realm." 'State religion', you also know the situation, basically believing in the one in your pocket is equivalent to believing in you...... I mean, studies have found that goddess believers are more likely to arouse the favor of the inhabitants of the Hongshi realm. To sum up, the Tree Elves may be the most common liaison officers in the Hongshi Realm in the future, they can go to the various worlds to run errands in place of your imperial soldiers, you can save a large group of troops, and by the way, the Space-Time Authority will not have to answer complaint calls every day......"

Is it necessary for this girl to give me a weakness blow in the last sentence! The Imperial soldiers are thinking about who to provoke this is- well, it seems that there are quite a few "who" they usually provoke......
