Chapter 52 Group Interests

"Why can the probe enter the star ring silently?"

The auspicious array is a very powerful ray radar.

In the traceless starry sky, even a little bit of ion radiation cannot escape the eyes of the auspicious array.

In theory, the probe cannot get close to Star No. 1 under the surveillance of the auspicious array.

Unless the other party has designed the route accurately, the route of the probe has always been on the back of the planet.

But this is impossible, because Star No. 1 is not static, it is rotating and moving around the star.

Odysseus explained: "According to the speculation of the great sage Donald, the probe should have reached Star No. 1 by inertia, and started the engine after entering the star ring, thus avoiding the surveillance of the auspicious array."

So that's it...

Li Meng's face showed a look of sudden realization.

In this way, everything makes sense.

Li Meng dared to be sure that the owner of the probe was "UNSC".

Only the Steadfast-class frigate that entered the S-01888 star system two months ago had the opportunity to release the probe.

In this way, "UNSC" not only discovered his base camp.

It was also discovered that the ring of Star No. 1 is rich in tin gold and fan crystal?

If this is true...

In his mind, Li Meng thought quickly.

He was thinking from another perspective. If it were him, what would he do?

Is trade currency important?

Important, very important.

If the earthlings want to complete the population task, they can only use trade coins to buy population in the trade mall.

And there are only two ways to obtain trade coins.

One is the reward for completing the task, and the second is to collect the four minerals needed by the trade merchant ship.

The four minerals needed by the trade mall are extremely rare in the universe. Not only are they low in content, but they are also very difficult to refine.

Once a rich mine is discovered, it will become the object of competition for everyone.

If it is an individual force, the idea may not be so radical.

But if it is a group force, for the benefit of the group and for the development of the group, it will be more radical.

They will come...

When thinking of the upcoming war, Li Meng thought of the game Stellaris.

The current earthlings are too similar to the players in Stellaris. They all start in a star system.

With a certain foundation, we can develop outward and occupy more star systems.

When we encounter another force, we can either live in peace and establish trade, or start a war and occupy the other party's territory.

Unless there is an external enemy that humans cannot match, the human beings on Earth can truly unite together.

Blue Demon?

Li Meng thought of the Blue Demon on Planet No. 1 again.

The robed creatures made him smell the breath of danger, and he didn't dare to test those creatures until now.

He is a living saint, and he feels very dangerous, which is enough to explain the potential danger of the Blue Demon.

Although Planet No. 1 is a good place, the existence of the Blue Demon makes Planet No. 1 a time bomb.

And this time bomb may explode at any time.

Thinking about it, Li Meng suddenly realized.

Unknowingly, a lot of troubles have come to him.

After a little thought in his mind, Li Meng determined the future development rhythm.

"With the addition of a new batch of slaves, the construction of the Ark will be accelerated, but not all slaves can be occupied. The manpower will be redistributed, with 10% for the construction of the Temple, 20% for the construction of the Ark, 40% for mining operations, and 30% for the construction of warships."

On the other side of the pool, Odysseus lowered his head slightly and asked, "King, is the proportion of military construction a bit too heavy? This will affect the construction of other projects. There is no war happening now. Should the proportion of military construction be reduced?"

Waving his hand slightly, Li Meng said, "In this dark and vast universe, nothing is more important than having the ability to protect yourself. The construction of the warships will be the responsibility of the Mechanicus. You only need to be responsible for personnel arrangements. Go."

Since the "King" has made a decision, Odysseus naturally can't say anything more.

Is it the incident of the detector that makes the "King" nervous?

Thinking of this, Odysseus's face is thoughtful.

Maybe the "King" is right. In the near future, there may be a war with the aliens.

Taking a step back, Odysseus performed the Sky Eagle Salute.

Then he turned around and strode towards the direction of the golden gate.

Looking at Odysseus's departing back, Li Meng's face showed a thoughtful look.

It was not until Odysseus left the hall and the golden gate slowly closed that Li Meng retracted his gaze.

"King, life on the ship must be very hard. Now that you are back, take a good rest for a few days and relax."

Mrs. Irina suddenly spoke, her voice was very soft.

Her beautiful eyes looked at him on the throne.

Turning his head slightly, Li Meng looked at Mrs. Irina beside him.

She said this, undoubtedly inviting him.

With a slightly raised corner of his mouth, Li Meng asked with a half-smile, "How does Madam Irina want me to relax?"

Irina did not look away, she just whispered, "Transfer Irene and Ellie to work outside."

Hearing this, Li Meng stood up and stretched.

He yawned again, and said lazily, "Just let it go naturally, no need to be deliberate."

Li Meng knew what Madam Irina was thinking.

She wanted to continue to maintain a close relationship with him.

Instead of being just a palace steward after that night.

Li Meng did not want to delve into the little things in a woman's mind.

The relationship between a man and a woman can be complicated or simple.

For an energetic young man who tasted the sweetness of a woman for the first time, his restraint was indeed a little abnormal.

Madam Irina thought it was because of Irene and Ellie.

After all, her daughters were almost always with him, making it difficult for him to start.

But is it really the case?

Yes and no, there is such a reason, but it is not the main reason.

"King, I let my daughters rest at home for two days. They will not appear in these two days."

When these words came out, Li Meng's face was stunned.

He turned back and looked at Mrs. Irina, who had a calm face.

Li Meng knew that she was asking for an answer.

Without saying much, Li Meng took a step forward.

He stretched out his right hand, embraced Mrs. Irina's waist, and pulled her into his arms.

In her ear, Li Meng whispered: "I'm tired, accompany me to sleep."

Very straightforward and explicit words.

Irina's eyes flickered a little, and she said softly: "Okay!"

Holding Mrs. Irina's waist, the two walked towards the direction of the bedroom.

It was night...

The bedroom was quiet, with only the long breathing sound echoing.

Under the soft blanket, Irina, who was sleeping with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes.

She looked at the person next to her...

Under the blanket, Irina saw the "king" sleeping soundly.

She turned slightly to the side and looked at the "king"'s face quietly.
