In the middle of a barren desert, the sudden discovery of a rich land flowing with milk and honey is shocking, and how great is the surprise and joy of discovering this rich mineral belt in this meteorite belt for the ships of these native civilizations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

These local civilizations around them have not been in the habit of looking for mines in the meteorite belt for millions of years, because they have long found that these meteorite belts around them are of no mining value, like abandoned mining pits that have been screened and excavated for a long time.

Of course, in fact, they guessed correctly, the shallow meteorite belts around them were all mined by the Iron Battlestar millions of years ago.

At that time, in order to keep the secret of the Iron Battlestar stationed in this star field, the civilizations in the surrounding related star fields were all ruthlessly used by the ancient civilizations, and they were all brought to the grave.

The civilizations that survive and multiply in this star field are just the products of the redevelopment of some civilizations that survived in the edge of this star field back then, and there are also some civilizations that migrated from other star fields through wormhole passages, in short, they are not the original aborigines, and they don't know the history of this star field in the early years.

And after the civilization in the surrounding area was wiped out, in order to keep the secret of the Iron Battlestar as much as possible, the first thing the Iron Battlestar did was to produce a large number of mining, smelting, Casting robots, destructive excavation of the outermost vast star field of the meteorite belt, in order to make the later civilization stop the idea of profiting from this star field, so as to keep the secret to the greatest extent, the steel battle star can be said to be extremely ruthless, all the valuable minerals can be said to have been excavated, and there is no thought left for the subsequent civilization at all.

Now, after a long period of extinction mining by the Iron Battlestar, most of the remaining mineral resources in the meteorite belt are all kinds of conventional mineral resources, such as those conventional elements, all kinds of rare elements with great industrial value, dark matter deposits, antimatter deposits, composite rare mineral deposits, etc., all of which have not even a single hair left.

Even among the ordinary mineral deposits, the vast majority of them are the cheapest and lowest-end non-metallic minerals, iron and aluminum, etc., such as precious metal deposits such as gold, energy maniac containing radioactive elements, etc., which are only a very rare part of the reserves, and the general taste is generally very inferior, and it has no mining value at all.

Such low-end worthless meteorite belts, which are everywhere around these civilizations, can be said to have no value at all, and are not worth the huge risk of those native civilizations to exploit.

Therefore, it is precisely because it is unprofitable and the depths of the meteorite belt are full of dangers, and for millions of years, there are few people in this meteorite belt, and often for decades and decades, no spacecraft dares to venture into the meteorite belt.

And even with such an ambitious person, it is often difficult to find any valuable gains in the meteorite belt, and those who are the luckiest, who have the opportunity to go deep into the meteorite belt, especially the explorers who find the area where the Iron Battlestar is located, will be sent away with their lives, and end up with no place to bury.

It is precisely because of guarding the large meteorite belt around him, but there are no resources available for use at all, the number of civilizations in this star field is relatively small compared to other star fields in the meteorite star sea, and all kinds of precious resources can only be mined in a very small number of mineral stars, not to mention the scarcity of reserves, the cost of production is also extremely high, and the value of various rare industrial raw materials is generally much higher than that in other star fields.

Therefore, after discovering this mineral belt with extremely huge reserves, extremely high cherishment, various high-end minerals and great development potential, these local civilizations are almost crazy for it.

In particular, the earth civilization promised them that as long as they can quickly clear the obstacles in the meteorite belt and eliminate all kinds of unmanned intelligent robots and other small things in the meteorite belt, the earth civilization not only does not interfere in this rich meteorite belt, but also gives them all the local civilizations to deal with, and still pays them their due employment money, and these native civilizations suddenly break out one by one.

Among these civilizations, all the faster-than-light spaceships that can be dispatched were immediately driven into the meteorite star belt, and only a small batch of faster-than-light spaceships were left in each civilization that could only maintain the safety of the core area within the territory, because the space-time jump fleet of the earth civilization promised to protect them during this period, and even the faster-than-light spaceships patrolling the border area were able to sail into the meteorite star belt, responsible for opening the way for the follow-up fleet of the earth civilization.

In addition to these limited number of faster-than-light spaceships, these native civilizations have even used their brains to pull out all the sub-lightspeed spaceships that can be pulled out, and they have also thrown themselves into this unprecedented money-grabbing battle.

Although the speed of sub-light ships is limited, it is very difficult to carry out such ultra-long-distance activities, and the non-stop movement of ships will seriously reduce the efficiency of work.

But since the work that the earth civilization has found for these native civilizations this time is so profitable and so unstoppable, there is no difficulty for these native civilizations that cannot be overcome.

The biggest problem with sub-light ships in such operations is that it takes too long to return to and fro, and the slower speed of the spacecraft itself is not a defect, as long as it can drive to the site and can keep working and contributing, then these sub-light ships can also come in handy.

After all, the earth's civilization hires these civilizations to clear the meteorite belt, which is calculated according to the amount of engineering, and the price is based on the price code of the faster-than-light spaceship.

Especially these local civilizations, as interstellar civilizations, although they do not have a large number of faster-than-light spaceships available, but each civilization has the production capacity of sub-light spaceships, these sub-light-speed spaceships because they can produce on their own, each of them has a huge number of ships, each civilization has tens of millions of ships that can be used, such a large number of sub-light spaceships, but anyone who can make a fortune in this project can reap tens of thousands of times the windfall profits in ordinary times!

What difficulties cannot be overcome for the sake of such huge profits? The answer is no!

For the sake of maximizing this benefit, in view of the shortcomings of these sub-light spacecraft, these local civilizations can also be said to have racked their brains, fully considered all aspects of factors, and systematically planned and managed and arranged this large number of sub-light spacecraft, and set the mission area for the corresponding sub-light spacecraft, and comprehensively developed and utilized the performance of each sub-light spacecraft.

As a result, with the cooperation of more than a billion sublight-speed spaceships of the native civilization, a huge transportation and operation system that stretches for several light years and is like a huge spaceship conveyor belt has been quickly assembled.

In this division of labor system, faster-than-light ships are the foremost drills, and they are responsible for fighting bravely at the front end, blowing up meteorites, detecting the environment, and destroying various intelligent robots arranged in the surrounding area by the steel battle star, and there are also a large number of sub-light ships on top at any time to solve problems and share the work for these faster-than-light ships.

Although the magnetic field in this area is abnormal, communication and other aspects will cause a severe test to the performance of the spacecraft, the construction conditions are very bad, the sub-light spacecraft is very resistant to construction in such a working environment, and it is very easy to be damaged, but there are many spaceships involved in the action, and if it is damaged, it will be immediately evacuated and repaired, and then immediately sent to other sub-light spaceships to seamlessly connect to the top, with so many sub-light spaceships participating in the operation, the difficulty of the construction is very small, and many faster-than-light spaceships have saved a lot, the work efficiency has been significantly improved, and the probability of damage under the attack of intelligent machines has been greatly reduced。

In addition to cooperating with faster-than-light ships and acting as cheap cannon fodder, more ships are also playing a more diverse and important job in the rear.

After all, although a sub-light spaceship has limited speed and limited use, the huge number of sub-light spaceships together can play an extremely considerable role, and all kinds of supply products that can be expected can be transported in advance, reducing the workload of faster-than-light spaceships and greatly improving work efficiency.

Moreover, a large number of sub-light spaceships can directly transport back a large number of valuable meteorite fragments that have been blasted and dismantled, which are directly cleaned and transported, which also unblock the passage to a large extent and accelerate the progress of the project, and the local civilization also has a great demand for these precious resources, which is very rare and these treasures have greatly improved their enthusiasm for work.

You must know that this meteorite belt was discovered by the earth civilization, and now there is an earth civilization here, no native civilization dares to make trouble here, everyone is very well-behaved, which civilization has the ability to pull away the cherished minerals directly belong to themselves, but when the earth civilization is withdrawn from here, then it is difficult to say who owns this mining area, and anything may happen at that time.

However, the withdrawal of the earth civilization is a foregone conclusion, and the earth civilization has long stated that it will evacuate as soon as the mission is completed, and will not stay in this area for a long time.

For the local civilization, these minerals are rare treasures, but for the earth civilization with a large land and abundant resources, and the ability to obtain resources is so strong that it is not worth it at all, just imagine how much the earth civilization has to do, how can there be that time to throw a lot of fleets here, those minerals to the earth fleet to dig the earth fleet are still not eye-catching, so the statement of the earth civilization is absolutely true and reliable.

And this means that for many local civilizations, once the earth civilization leaves here, there will be no good opportunity to mine and make money like now, and then if you want to come here to dig a ton of ore, maybe you have to fight first, and then you don't know how high the cost is, so every civilization is cherished, and a large number of ships are sent to work overtime, even if the ship staff needs to rest, it is also a work that does not stop people and ships, and rotates 24 hours a day.

In order to meet the high-intensity work needs of a large number of ships, these local civilizations have built even large spaceship supply bases and maintenance bases along the route, and they are still being processed and constructed to meet the needs of waterway expansion.

It is also under the hard work of many civilizations and the power of the entire civilization, the dredging project of the entire waterway can be described as a real thousand miles a day, and the progress is very fast, not to mention the waterways in the peripheral areas of the meteorite belt, not to mention the repair soon, and there are also waterway maintenance fleets at any time and anywhere to continuously maintain the convenience and smoothness of the waterway, that is, to the depths of the meteorite belt are full of robots controlled by steel battle stars, and the progress of the project is also exaggerated.

The sub-light fleets of those native civilizations are really in the midst of non-stop construction under the rain of bullets, and many times it is the front fleet and robots that are fighting hot and stray bullets, but after the battlefield, countless ships are in non-stop construction, all kinds of meteorites are flying, and the spaceships are busy.

In the fiery construction of the native civilization, with the passage of time, the Earth Fleet is also constantly assembling, in just a few months, there have been as many as 100,000 space-time jump spaceships assembled, arrived in this star field, and there are more warships on the way.

With a fleet of this size, the earth civilization will no longer wait, and while the native civilization continues to widen the shipping route, the earth civilization has already launched an attack on the Iron Battle Star!

The 100,000 fleets followed the channel opened up by the native civilization, while making a space-time jump, while quickly sailing faster than the speed of light in the conventional mode, quickly arrived at the battlefield of battle, surrounded from all directions, and launched attacks on the steel battle star in batches.

During this period of time, in the face of the approaching civilization of the earth, the Iron Battlestar had no other actions except to command those peripheral robots to obstruct the opening of the channel, and he looked extremely good-tempered.

But this did not make the Earth civilization feel relaxed at all, and the Earth civilization did not know what tricks the Iron Battlestar was playing in private, but the Earth civilization knew very well that the crisis was approaching!
