How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 494: Colonization

For collectors, star systems with asteroid belts other than the Kuiper belt are the easiest star systems to develop, because in the early stage of colonization and development of star systems, they can obtain sufficient material resources and do not need to be like planets. When mining, you need to consider countering the planet's gravity.

"Hey, wait for me, don't speed up so fast, it will consume more antimatter after slowing down."

"This point of resources is consumed as well. We cannot exceed the planned time. That will disrupt the original arrangement."

"Although this is the truth, the output of antimatter is very low. It takes time for the giant to hoard a sufficient amount, and we need to prepare for the next voyage."

After entering the stellar system, the tasks are initially assigned, and the subluminal creatures are divided into several groups of actions. At this time, the two subluminal creatures are traveling together, using antimatter to advance to the asteroid belt.

In addition to the Kuiper belt, this star system has two asteroid belts. Their destination is the outer asteroid belt, which is located in the sixth orbit of the star system.

This distance is relatively time-consuming at the current speed of the two organisms. It spans a distance of more than ten astronomical units and consumes 43 rotations of the time to reach the outer asteroid belt.

"You go over there, I go here, and move separately. This is the most efficient."

Upon arrival, the collector received radio information from the same family.

The collectors don’t mind the splitting of operations. This is to speed up the progress. How can there be objections to the development of the ethnic group?

However, before the separate operations, the collectors themselves still have some problems that need to be solved by the same clan, so when expressing agreement with the idea, it also asks for inquiries of the nature of the same clan by the way.

"Understood, but can you give me some water?"

"You have run out of water resources? There is no need to use water resources on the voyage, right?"

The same clan feels strange, because they need very few water resources during their navigation, and they only use water resources in large quantities when they colonize stars, so they will carry them when they go to the next star system. The reserves are not huge water resources, these water resources are used for the development and construction of the destination star.

But now the collectors ask it for some water resources, which makes it incomprehensible. Supplementing the water resources is to supplement it together. It should be that all employees will not lack this part of the resources.

It soon became clear, and the collector explained the reason for his need for water resources. The reason was simple: these water resources were consumed.

"When sailing at the sub-light speed, I encountered a small mass of matter. The annihilation reaction slowed my speed. In order to restore my speed, I used some water resources to produce a hydrogen mass, so that the antimatter propulsion could not consume the original reserves. In the case of hydrogen clusters, the speed increase is completed."

"It turns out that's the case, so you just said to save antimatter."

In this way, the doubt is solved, because it consumes more antimatter than other families, so it will be more constrained in this regard, and then water resources, because water resources are consumed to produce hydrogen and oxygen, although water resources are reserved It can still support development, but it will definitely not be fast, because the quality of these water resources is added to the body of sub-light speed organisms after careful calculation, and one gram less will not work.

"Do you still have sufficient antimatter reserves?"

"The reserves are too small, and it would be reluctant to coordinate with the star track for continuous light-year navigation, but this is not a problem. When the antimatter megastructure is bred, my antimatter reserve can be replenished."

The collector answered the question of the same family. It is also relatively depressed about what happened. It can be encountered with such a small probability. The key is that it did not think too much when producing hydrogen and oxygen, and completely forgot that these water resources are in The effect after reaching the star system is directly used, so it is very embarrassing now.

The same race pierced a tentacles of its own organism like a sharp blade into a butter cake, and then the tentacles opened the gap between the proton crystal lattices, and the water storage part was used as a water pipeline to remove liquid water from the organism. Transfer from the body to another organism.

"Here you are, these are water resources. Don't waste them. Water resources are not standing resources. I don't have much."

After the water was transported, the family did not forget to ask the collectors.

"Got it." The collector replied.

"See you later, then."

"Looking back~lightnovelpub.net~ the two sides were separated, and I went to explore everything in the asteroid belt by opening the bow from the left to the right.

Due to insufficient water resources, the collectors are the first to search for asteroids such as ice meteorites that are rich in water resources. While replenishing water resources, they also nurture biological factories such as honeycombs that can process and disassemble compounds.

The honeycomb will be the main pioneer for their arrangers to search for resources in the asteroid belt. It can be used as a material processing factory or a biological body maintenance station.

The processed material resources will be stacked up to facilitate the use of the ethnic group. With the processed material resources of the honeycomb, the resource mining in the asteroid belt will only increase geometrically.

However, the prerequisite for all this is that there must be such a large ice meteorite. If not, it is empty talk. The problem is here. Without water resources as a starting point, it will be quite difficult.

"The first step in development is to find a meteorite rich in water resources..."

The collector whispered to himself, it stretched out its tentacles to come into contact with the meteorite. On a microscopic scale, it can be seen that there are a large number of cilia on the tentacles. The function of these cilia is naturally to bring the material on the meteorite. Determine the composition ratio of that meteorite.

"No, this is not, this is an iron-nickel meteorite, the next one."

The collectors were a little disappointed to leave the asteroid and head to the next asteroid with the same size, hoping to find the resources they wanted.

However, the result was disappointing. It can only continuously search for a meteorite suitable for camping on a meteorite.

"No, this is a chromite meteorite."

"This is also an iron-nickel meteorite."

"Carbon-silicon meteorite..."

"Carbon-sulfur-iron meteorite..."
