Master of Thermodynamics

Chapter 942 “Prometheus” Project

On the asteroid more than 200,000 kilometers away, Renault hung up the magic communication and let out a long sigh.

In the past few years, even though he has become a strong master that all mankind looks up to, he suddenly found that he seems to be getting farther and farther away from a relaxed and leisurely life.

The shadow of the Void Demon Race, like a “Sword of Damocles” hanging high above his head, keeps him busy all day long, and he can’t even spare much time to accompany his daughter.

However, as a savior who came in response to fate, no one other than him can afford this vital burden.

“Fate is a shackle!”

Renault stared at the endless darkness ahead, and smiled with self-deprecating:

“It’s like power, but it’s actually a shackle…”

For the inexplicable sigh of the supreme ruler of mankind, none of the more than 20 interstellar mining team members dared to answer the conversation at will, and they all remained silent.

The same goes for the “Millennium Falcon” following the asteroid, and there is silence in the communication channel, just like this eternally silent deep space.

After ten seconds, the deputy captain of the mining team, Advanced Magician Reinhardt, asked cautiously:

“Under the supreme crown, why do you feel that’power is a shackle’? Isn’t the stronger the better?”

Renault didn’t answer the question directly, but turned to other topics:

“Reinhardt, as well as the gentlemen present, you can be selected to join the Star Mining Team, and you must have sufficient confidentiality rights… Then, you should have heard of the ‘Prometheus’ plan, right?”

“Yes, under the crown, I have participated in the preliminary planning of the plan!”

Reinhardt answered first.

“Under the crown, I also know.”

“I heard that it seems to be some kind of ‘tinder’ plan…”

“Uh, what is the’Prometheus’ project?”

Others gave answers one after another, most of the players heard about it, and a few didn’t know it.

Renault smiled slightly:

“Reinhardt, tell the guys about the situation.”

“Yes!”

Reinhardt cleared his throat and began to talk about the top-secret plan that had been underway in secret.

“As early as 7 years ago, the first’Hand of Thanos’ space-based ray weapon was sent into space, the Supreme Crown proposed the’Prometheus’ plan and ordered the research and development system to cooperate with the federal government. High-level, set up a special committee and begin preparations for this plan.”

“To put it simply, the main purpose of the project is to preserve the’fire’ of human civilization… In fact, the two space cities located on the surface of the two satellites of Ya’an and Eva, the’Moon Palace’ and the’Star Palace’, Some of these facilities are just preparations for this plan.”

“After the army of the void demons arrives in the future, once the war is unfavorable and the entire planet faces the desperate situation of complete fall, the federal government will launch the’Prometheus’ project to send the elite of all mankind into space and take a large interstellar space. Immigration spacecraft, looking for planets for settlement.”

“As far as I know, the code name of the large-scale immigration spacecraft is called’Navigator’, with a total weight of 250,000 tons and a total of 6,400 immigrants…The’planetary engine’ on this asteroid is precisely the’Navigator’. “The power engine developed…”

Reinhardt paused, then said:

“The above is the relevant basic information. Later, I was transferred to the’Dragon Palace’ and withdrew from the’Prometheus’ project…”

Rao’s narrative was too simple to be simpler, and the information included also shocked this group of players.

“Oh my God……”

“This is amazing!”

At this time, Renault interrupted everyone’s discussion:

“Everyone, I have to correct it. Regarding the “Navigator” spacecraft, 250,000 tons are only the initial design data…During the research and development process, due to the continuous emergence of new technologies, the research and development team is constantly improving the design, and the data of different batches of spacecraft Not consistent.”

“Compared with the original version, the data of the latest batch of spacecraft has been greatly changed. The total weight exceeds 360,000 tons, and the number of immigrants accommodated has reached about 8,800.”

“As of last month, the project committee has built 32’Navigator’ spacecraft, and this number is still rising at a rate of’one and a half months per ship… As the construction capacity becomes stronger, the rate of increase is bound to increase. The sooner.”

“According to the plan, in three years, the number of immigrant spacecraft will be expanded to 85, and the total carrying capacity will exceed 600,000 people… In addition, we are planning to modify the two space cities of’Dragon Palace’ and’Phoenix Nest’. If necessary, they can also become giant spaceships, join the’Prometheus’ project, and undertake the task of transporting immigrants…”

Reinhardt couldn’t help but slap his tongue:

“The’Dragon Palace’ can carry 80,000 people, and its limit state is no less than 120,000. The’Phoenix Nest’ has a larger body size and the limit state is no less than 150,000, which adds up to 270,000…”

Another magician interjected:

“The Dragon Palace and the Phoenix Nest are expanding every year, and the scale of expansion is getting bigger and bigger. I think they can transport at least 400,000 people in 3 years!”

Other people also followed up to discuss.

“Calculating this way, the two space cities, plus the’Navigator’ fleet, can transport a total of 1 million people…”

“According to my biological knowledge, 1 million people are enough to maintain a civilization…”

“However, the current total human population has exceeded 30 million. If the war fails, only a handful of people can leave. This is too miserable…”

“Hey, man, this is no way. It is idiotic to have 30 million people immigrate to other planets together…”

“In the vast outer space, finding a new planet suitable for settlement is by no means an easy task. Maybe the fleet has been in space for 100 years, and it may not be possible to find an immigrant planet…”

“Hey, everyone, can you stop being so pessimistic, I believe that under the leadership of the Supreme Crown, we can definitely defeat the Void Demon Race and drive them all back to their hometown…”

Seeing the subordinates talking in full swing, Renault coughed slightly, and the channel instantly became silent.

He pondered for a moment, then said:

“Everyone, I put forward the’Prometheus’ plan, only to learn the lessons of the destruction of prehistoric magical civilization, the purpose is to leave a way for mankind… Please remember, this is just a backup plan, not necessarily true Be implemented.”

“Everyone should be aware that today’s Human Federation has a large number of advanced weapons that can easily kill the Orbital Strike Group of the’Hand of the Tyrant’ that dominates creatures. It is just one of them. We are stronger than at any time in history.”

“However, how will the future full-scale war develop? The outcome of the war will be victory or loss. Even the gods are unpredictable. The only thing we can do is to be fully prepared.”

In fact, the “Prometheus” plan was released for another inexplicable reason, that is, he already has a lively and lovely daughter, a son who is about to be born, and a wife who has shared weal and woe, and many beautiful and moving lovers. , He must prepare a retreat for them.

Nothing else, this is just the most basic responsibility of a man.

After a pause, Renault said again:

“Just now Reinhardt asked me,’Why power is a yoke?’ Now I can tell you that when the’Prometheus’ project is launched, everyone can leave the planet without any problems. I alone cannot leave easily…”

Reinhardt opened his mouth wide in surprise:

“Under the crown, why is this?”

Renault chuckled and revealed a shocking secret:

“The stronger the power you master, the more thorough the understanding of the nature of the power, the stronger the connection with the world actually, or’binding’… Well,’binding’ is a more accurate description. The two sides are one. This kind of symbiosis is a kind of symbiosis, where every one is prosperous, and every one is damaged.”

“If the planet’s earth vein energy is extracted by the Void Demon Race, the planet’s sea of ​​magic energy will lose balance and completely collapse, and the power of the law will also be annihilated, until the power of the new law is condensed.”

“You should understand that the source of the power of the ruler is the’power of the secondary law’, which is a derivative of the power of the law. Once the power of the law is broken, I will also pay a heavy price.”

“If there is no countermeasure, I will fall directly and be buried with this world… Even if I use some means to forcibly cut the link with the sea of ​​magical energy, my power will fall to the level of Profound meaning, or even lower!”

He sighed:

“The reason why the manifestation of the power of the’secondary law’ in the soul space is a’chain of law’ in the form of a’chain’, rather than other things, there is a lot of meaning in it.”

“Those’floating whales’ hunted by us, after entering this world through the time and space cracks, are partially restricted in their strength, and even the [Flashing] skills cannot be used for this reason!”

This remark made everyone silent.

No one dared to imagine what a catastrophic situation would be if the supreme crown fell unfortunately.

Perhaps, the “Prometheus” plan will not be implemented smoothly, and the entire human civilization will be destroyed.

It is not even ruled out that there will be more tragic things-the family will die!

A magician suddenly broke the silence and asked a key question:

“Under the supreme crown, you just said that the power of the master is bound to the world. If the master of the void demons enters our world, will he face the same situation as the’floating whale’, and his strength will decline? ”

This question immediately attracted everyone’s attention, and the players all pricked their ears, waiting for Renault’s answer.

“will not!”

Renault gave an answer that disappointed everyone.

“Think about it. After the power of the laws of the world is annihilated, I can use the help of rune magic machines to avoid the end of the fall. The Void Demon Race masters very advanced technology, don’t they have a solution?”

“However, according to my guess, after the arrival of the demon ruler, due to the changes in the magic environment, the combat power should be reduced, but the magnitude will definitely not be too large…”

This judgment made many people smile, but Renault’s next words made everyone’s heart sink.

“For a single Demon Master, I have the confidence to kill each other, but the Demon Race can have more than one Master… If I guess correctly, in the future war, the Demon Race is very likely to dispatch more than double digits. Dominate, even more!”

…

When Renault was chatting with his subordinates, Alietti and Alcea, who had arrived at the port of the “Phoenix Nest Space City”, were staring at a space fighter with a very beautiful appearance in surprise.

It is the “Phoenix” fighter that Renault mentioned in the communication.
