Whoosh!
A heavy antigravity rune train loaded with all manner of components rolled out of the gate of light in a mighty procession!
The second train followed, then the third!
Heavy alloy beams freshly cooled and formed on Great Xia's industrial assembly lines, high-energy capacitor cores for the Planet-Buster Cannon, and a tide of multipurpose Engineering Robots poured endlessly from the Portal, heading to their workstations according to the Supercomputer AI's assignments!
"The Spatial Gate is open! The materials are here!!"
On the ground, Great Xia's chief engineer waved a red flag and roared in a hoarse voice:
"Dwarf Construction Team, follow me! Head to magnetic rail foundation pit one and calibrate the tolerances!"
"Engineering Machinery Regiments One and Two, level the ground on the southern flank!"
Baron felt all the blood in his body rush to his head. The awe and inferiority he had felt moments earlier were completely replaced by an unprecedented fervor.
He yanked hard on his powered Warhammer's charging valve and hollered over the communications channel:
"Brothers! Charge! Let's not stand around either!!"
At that same moment, on the other side of the Kona Satellite.
At the preparatory construction site for the planetary propulsion engines contracted to Great Xia, hundreds of thousands of Great Xia Engineering Robots and heavy boring machines had already driven their steel drill bits deep into the crust!
Work was proceeding just as feverishly on the land contracted to the Kona Civilization.
There was only one Planet-Buster Cannon, which could not accommodate so many construction units from both civilizations, so the surplus units began building planetary engines.
There was no retreat. Behind them lay the kindling of their civilizations.
As hundreds of millions of tons of crustal debris flew into the air, a vast civilization-building project worthy of Great Xia's history books
