Chapter 209: What’s wrong with giant enterprises building some mega structures in prosperous times?
However, when various departments of giant companies select talents from the "Pacific Rim" Earth, they still have to send more employees and labor here.

After all, due to the destruction of the pioneer civilization, the number of humans on this earth has long since dropped from more than 6 billion at the beginning to less than 200 million today.

Faced with this devastated earth, the giant corporations have a lot of work to do to clean up the mess.

From the Ideal City, the 001 Universe "Underworld" Earth, transport resources, population, and large amounts of minerals to rebuild the Earth.

At this time, the importance of material decompressor is perfectly demonstrated!

"I'll leave the post-war reconstruction to you. I just want the results."

Li Ang gave instructions to his subordinates.

"Yes!"

After more than ten years of painstaking operation, Ideal City has long become the largest production factory of a global giant, with management and operational talents emerging in endlessly.

The 001 "Underworld" Earth is a talent pool for soldiers and officers of giant companies.

After all, the survivors here are all ruthless people who have been confronting the terrifying Netherworld soldiers for nearly ten years.

Their wills are much stronger than those of ordinary people due to the hardships they have endured.

The Corey team and others who made great contributions this time are the representatives among them!

As for those soldiers who had their nervous systems stripped away and were forced into a quantized state, the giant companies actually retained a very small number of them for experimental research.

Although the manufacturing method of these Netherworld soldiers is quite cruel and inhumane, these technologies have indeed become one of the technological points of giant companies.

When necessary, giant companies will also use clones or replicants to produce a group of invisible and intangible ghost armies to give the enemy a little ghost shock!

Of course, this technology will not become a conventional weapon for giant companies. The cost and maintenance resources of Nether Soldiers are quite high, and they need to be on guard against Nether escaping at all times.

When facing an advanced civilization, especially aliens with technology points added to the microscopic world, no matter how many Netherworld legions there are, they will collapse in just a glance.

Therefore, in terms of quantum technology, Li Ang still focused the development of his technological points on expanding production and weapons.

For example, quantum computers and research on antimatter and plasma bombs.

Especially plasma weapons, this technology has been mastered by the research and development personnel of giant companies. At this moment, giant companies are able to produce various plasma guns and bombs on their own.

This is the charm of “free” technology points!

Speaking of free stuff, Li Ang couldn't help but turn his eyes to the holographic screen again. Speaking of the technological highlights on the earth in "Pacific Rim", the most obvious one is the giant mecha.

Soon, at Leon's request, the front-line base immediately sent all the top-secret information of the Pan-Pacific Defense Force's hunter mechas to the headquarters.

Looking at the sixth-generation Hunter mecha program secretly developed by the Defense Force, Leon immediately became interested and carefully read and browsed the data and details of the document.

In this data document, the Defense Force plans to combine the characteristics of previous generations of mecha, optimize various details, and create a sixth-generation mecha that is the culmination of all the best.

This generation of mecha will be powered by an electric turbine system and a nuclear reactor to provide power for the mecha.

"We can use our polymer nuclear fusion reactor to add some power to this generation of mecha."

Li Ang said thoughtfully.

The humans in "Pacific Rim" do not have reliable nuclear fusion technology, so the most advanced power source is still the nuclear fission reactor.

If a more stable nuclear fusion reactor with better energy conversion efficiency is installed, the power of the mecha can be raised to a higher level.

Immediately, Li Ang continued to search.

The sixth-generation mecha is going to adopt the three-person driving system of the fourth-generation mecha "Storm Red", and will add armor to the back area of ​​the mecha to prevent sneak attacks from Kaiju.

In addition, the sixth-generation mecha will be equipped with a new plasma pulse cannon, which has better long-range attack capabilities.

Therefore, comprehensively speaking, this generation of mecha models will be more resistant to impact, have stronger power, faster speed, and better firepower system.

"No wonder the traitors in the human upper echelons are so strongly opposed to the defense forces building a new mecha. If this thing is really built, it will be a big trouble for the pioneers."

Li Ang suddenly understood why the defense forces were being suppressed. He was definitely the contemporary Yue Fei.

While he was fighting hard on the front line, the traitors in the rear were stabbing him in the back.

No one can stand this!

However, such a good mecha construction plan now belongs to Le Ang, and he gets a technology point for free, so cool!
In fact, a few years ago, Leon had thought about improving the Titan mecha and building a batch of large mechas.

But considering the cost and usage issues, the project would be somewhat of a waste of resources and a bit inefficient, so he temporarily shelved the plan.

That's true. After all, a giant mecha that is dozens of meters high has very limited application scenarios on Earth.

Not to mention on an interstellar battlefield.

Unless it is Ultraman, the giant from the Land of Light who can fly, fire lasers on his own, has excellent close combat skills, and has self-healing abilities.

That thing is a real giant weapon!
Otherwise, building a large mecha like this would be a pure waste of money and would only serve as a living target for the enemy.

However, now that he has the ready-made information from the Pan-Pacific Defense Force, Leon can order the engineering department at any time to build two prototype mechas according to the drawings as backup.

These two mechas will certainly not appear as formal combat units. More often, they appear as symbols of giant companies like the Red Flame Phantom Beast.

A giant combat mecha has made its debut. No matter how useful it is, its deterrent power alone is enough.

It's quite good for bluffing some alien heretics from low-level civilizations!

Just after Li Ang sorted out all the archival information on the screen, a long-lost prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind.

[Mission: Conquer the Earth in Pacific Rim]

[Status: Completed]

[Task Rewards: 10 chances to draw roulettes above level 8, massive enterprise currency value (guaranteed to upgrade the megastructure and item level once)]

[Additional mission: Conquer the "pioneer" alien civilization]

[Status: Completed]

[Task Reward: Full Level Technology Upgrade Points]

……

'The system's reward has arrived! '

Hearing this long-lost prompt tone, Leon suddenly felt refreshed. He thought he would have to stay on the Earth of "Pacific Rim" for a while.

The system mission can only be completed after all the pioneers on Anti Star and the remaining Kaiju beasts and pioneers on Earth are completely wiped out.

Li Ang didn't expect that the completion reward would come so soon!
"It should be because of this thorough and careful operation that the pioneer civilization was wiped out in one fell swoop, so the system rewards were distributed so quickly."

Li Ang nodded thoughtfully.

He remembered that the last time they were on the Netherworld Earth, it took the Giant Enterprise's troops a long time to finally clear out the Netherworld.

The main reason is that some ghosts are very smart and know how to hide in areas with concentrated heat sources, or simply shrink into a cave and don't come out.

This time, Leon had made all the necessary preparations, releasing the Scorpion Tailed Lion virus and using saturation attacks in an effort to completely destroy the Pioneers.

Only in this way can the pioneer civilization be uprooted and killed completely in less than two days!

"We still have to eradicate all evil!"

Li Ang smiled.

He knew what to do from now on in order to complete the system tasks as efficiently as possible and get new rewards.

Leon didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt for using the lives of alien heretics to explode the system's gold coins. It was their honor to be able to contribute to the world's giant enterprise.

What's more, the Pioneers were the first invaders to initiate colonial invasion, and Leon's giant corporate troops can only be regarded as acting on behalf of heaven!
Immediately, Li Ang took a look at the corporate currency rewards issued this time. His luck was pretty good. This batch of corporate coins was enough for him to successfully exchange for the [Material Decompressor] megastructure.

The remaining enterprise coins can even support him to upgrade the level of another megastructure, or improve the level of technology points such as matrix, star gate, gene seed, etc.

Of course, Leon still has to keep these remaining corporate coins for emergency use or to unlock the subsequent megastructures.

His current focus is still on the [Matter Decompressor] that he just unlocked!
At this moment, relevant prompt information has appeared on the system interface.

[The first stage of the Universal Enterprise - Ideal City has been unlocked]

[Phase 2 of the Global Corporation - Science Hub has been unlocked]

[Universal Enterprise Phase 3 - Material Decompressor has been unlocked]

【…】

'Strange... The fourth stage of the universe structure has not yet been revealed. Is it possible that it will not be revealed until I conquer the next world?'

When Leon saw the fourth-stage megastructure covered by a line of blurry mosaics, he couldn't help but frown. He wanted to know what the next megastructure would be.

It was not until Leon saw from the system prompt that he needed to build the matter decompressor before he could see the giant structure behind it that he suddenly realized it.

If so, it's not surprising.

'Now that things have come to this, let's upgrade first!'

Le Ang did not hesitate for a moment. After obtaining the upgrade points that could instantly raise the level of the megastructure to the maximum, he decisively used them on the [Material Decompressor].

A fully-level material decompressor can extract and refine valuable minerals from black holes in astonishing quantities!
With this thing, Leon can greatly liberate the mining labor force whether he is building a new ideal city, a scientific hub, or rebuilding the earth of "Underworld" and "Pacific Rim".

Although Li Ang has a system that can provide weapons and military equipment, exchanging these things also requires corporate coins.

At most, he would pass the weapons and equipment around to other people to make some money, but it was impossible for him to dismantle the guns and ammunition and use them as basic resources.

Therefore, for a global giant enterprise, sufficient basic materials are needed to ensure the normal operation of this giant enterprise empire.

However, for Li Ang, the greatest effect of the [Matter Decompressor] is that it can greatly speed up the construction of the second ideal city and the scientific hub megastructure. As long as the time for material mining can be omitted, the construction time of the megastructure will only take a few years.

'Giant enterprises are flourishing in this era, so why not build some giant structures!'

Li Ang smiled. He looked at the time required to build the matter decompressor, which was only about a year.

For Leon, whose lifespan value has reached the infinite state of "∞", this is just a matter of a blink of an eye.

Paradox players are like this. Immortal cultivation players only need to meditate and refine spiritual energy to level up and increase their lifespan, while Paradox players have a lot of things to consider.

Fleets, Colossi, armies, meteorites, sky-burning weapons, and the Void Engine... I want them all, but how can I get them without enough lifespan and talent to work hard and operate them!

"It just so happens that I've been busy for almost two months, so I'll take this time to give myself a break."

Li Ang nodded. He could use this year to consolidate the giant company's rear base and supervise the reconstruction of the two Earths.

After determining the next plan and deployment, Leon directly gave it the task of building a [matter decompressor] through the transcendental AI Europa.

The matter decompressor megastructure needs to first select a suitable black hole, which needs to be as close to the solar system as possible and not too far away.

Otherwise, the transportation cost will increase, and the mass of the black hole cannot be too small, otherwise it will be easily mined.

Fortunately, before this, Li Ang had already decided on a suitable black hole, and now he just needed to install the matter decompressor!

【As you wish, my master.】

After receiving Leon's order, AI Europa, which is responsible for coordinating all matters of the Ideal City, immediately began to dispatch personnel to the black hole area to build a decompressor.

After finishing all the important matters, Leon felt unprecedentedly relaxed and relieved. He had been busy dealing with the pioneer tasks during this period.

Soon, accompanied by Morgan, Leon left the center console and came to the observation deck of the headquarters.

Looking at the people busying around at the headquarters of the Wanjie Base, Le Ang suddenly remembered his vacation time on Pandora.

The magnificent alien scenery there is indeed fascinating, but Le Ang doesn't have the time to enjoy the scenery now. He has to stay in the Ideal City to take charge of the overall situation.

For an immortal like him, the passage of time is actually quite fast, and the traces left by the years on his body are not obvious.

"I hope that we can extract some life extension technology or something in the future, so that it can be arranged for Morgan, Song Zhaomei, Lucy and other executives."

Li Ang thought so.

Although the giant company's existing genetic technology and cybernetics technology are fully capable of supporting Morgan, Lucy and others to live nearly two hundred years longer.

But for the long-term development of a global giant, two hundred years is just a blink of an eye.

Even with V's full body mechanization and organ cloning and replacement, he can only live for about ten thousand years.

If there is no better life-extending technology, Li Ang can only replace a new group of executives.

"We still need to speed up the progress and improve the technology points of the giant enterprises."

After silently sighing in his heart, Li Ang decided to go out for a walk to see how the work turned out.

Morgan Blackhand, who was accompanying him, saw this and immediately ordered his subordinates to arrange a Skyhawk shuttle and four additional gunboats to escort Leon's aircraft.

Outside the corridor, Leon, Lucy, Morgan and others, under the protection of several Astartes warriors whose transformation strength had reached the "Imperial Guard" level, boarded the shuttle in front of the balcony.

When entering the cabin, Li Ang even omitted the breathing mask. With his current physical condition, he had no need for this thing.

Even in the harsh environment of the Earth in Pacific Rim, Leon can breathe easily and freely.

After all, his current physical strength is the same as that of V who had undergone 19 organ modifications. The only difference is that Le Ang has no other extra organs, they are all original.

Soon, the hatch of the Skyhawk shuttle closed, and the suspension mode pulled the body to a high altitude. Then the engine roared towards the other end of the star gate and flew into the earth's low-Earth orbit.

In the cabin, Leon was not idle either. He had a conversation with Corey on the ground, praising him for his achievements and contributions to the giant company.

"Corey, you did a good job this time. It seems that you get along well with the defense forces in the Metal City."

Li Ang smiled at Corey through the holographic screen.

"They are human warriors who deserve respect, especially Raleigh Beckett and General Mori Asako. They used to be mecha pilots in the same group."

Corey reported his work to Leon truthfully and explained all his interpersonal relationships clearly.

During the time he worked for the global giant, he was well aware of the importance of "reporting work" to his boss, Li Ang.

Especially after learning that the Astartes' Chapter Captain V had been promoted by reporting his work in the early years.

Corey understood more clearly how important "telling the truth" is to his future development.

"I know these two people and have read their files." Li Ang nodded.

Aren’t these two the male and female protagonists in “Pacific Rim”? I didn’t expect that they have now risen to the position of generals in the defense forces.

Unfortunately, the former general of the Defense Force, Stack Penticos, had died of illness a long time ago.

Otherwise, Reed will see someone who looks exactly like him on the Earth in "Pacific Rim".

This scene is so funny just thinking about it, it makes people laugh.

After hanging up the conversation with Corey, the Skyhawk shuttle quickly returned to the atmosphere, carrying the executives of the giant company to the sky above North America.

After several rounds of hydrogen bomb explosions and plasma bomb explosions a few days ago, the pioneer cities and Kaiju in North America have all been destroyed.

Without these sources of continued pollution of the earth's environment, the sky over North America is actually clearer than before.

However, it will take at least a dozen years for the Earth in "Pacific Rim" to return to its original state.

After all, it is easy to destroy and difficult to restore.

This is also under the premise that the giant corporation in the universe has the technology to transform planets and build ideal cities.

Without this key reconstruction technology, it would take giant companies at least a hundred years to restore the earth's ecological environment.

By that time, the human population here will have changed for five or six generations!
Just as Leon was about to take in the scenery here and make a mental estimate of the extent of the environmental damage here.

Nicolo, the director of the biotechnology department of a giant company, suddenly sent a holographic video.

When the video call was connected, Leon saw Nicolo in the experimental center. He was wearing a fully armed chemical protective suit and said to Leon:

"Boss, we have some new discoveries this time."

After that, Nicolo tapped twice on the holographic panel, presenting Leon with more relevant data and explaining:
"Everyone knows that the Pioneers used their own genetic information to create the Kaiju. However, no one knows the specific reason why the Pioneers can control the Kaiju."

"Now, I think we know the answer."

After he finished speaking, Nicolo sent a video of the experiment and a report on the conclusion to Li Ang respectively.

After watching the video and the report, Leon looked a little stunned. He saw a piece of information in the report, that is, the Pioneer's genes have the function of realizing "hive consciousness"!

They can use their own genetic information to remotely issue instructions to their own kind or to organisms that also have the same genetic data.

And there are different levels!

A supreme leader like the Pioneer Archbishop can directly issue orders to any subordinate or Kaiju.

"but……"

Nicolo hesitated for a moment, then added to Leon's explanation: "The information sharing of the Pioneer hive consciousness has certain limitations."

"For example, if the distance is too far, this function cannot be achieved, and the units that can share instructions at one time are also relatively limited."

After listening to Nicolo's explanation, Leon finally had a clear understanding of the Pioneer's hive consciousness.

This thing has some research value, but it's not very big.

After all, when it comes to hive consciousness, Leon's polymer collective nervous system can even ignore distance and fully control units.

Even without the Astartes Legion or other soldiers, Leon himself can control a huge clone army, a large number of AI robots, and armored vehicles.

These days...who isn't an Omnissiah?

"Also, in terms of weaponization, I think Kaiju is relatively useless."

"The venom and acid in their bodies have little effect on similar silicon-based creatures, and the cost of manufacturing a Kaiju is not low."

"However, the genetic data of the Pioneers and Kaiju do have some research value, which can help us breed new alien creatures."

Nicolo has tried his best to stand from the perspective of the global giant and consider all production costs for Leon.

"Well, hard work."

Li Ang responded.

What Nicolo said makes sense.

Originally, Li Ang had considered that if the cost of manufacturing Kaiju was acceptable, he would even create an army of Kaiju.

Used in future interstellar colonial wars.

But now it seems that since the cost of Kaiju has exceeded expectations, it would be better to keep these resources to make a few plasma bombs for fun!
You know, it only took the giant company dozens of hydrogen bombs and plasma bombs to destroy all the pioneer cities in North America and the Kaiju there.

And all these expenses cost at most the resources needed to build two Kaiju beasts!

Even lower.

By comparing them in this way, it is quite obvious which one is better.

Li Ang is unwilling to do any business that will result in a loss, unless there is a longer-term benefit.
