Protoss' First Mining Base in the Sien Star System

"Wait, Shen Jun!"

At that moment, He Xi flew next to Aiur's Shield. The Protoss Mothership's immensity and overwhelming sense of technology were unprecedented for He Xi.

To put it bluntly, one could see how lacking in imagination the Angels were from the early spaceship designs.

The spaceships of the male Angel era were truly designed like, well, ships.

The prime example was Hua Ye's Heavenly Palace.

After Keisha's uprising, the situation improved significantly. By the time the Super God Academy's main storyline unfolded, the Angels' standard Heaven Blade Battleships had completely abandoned the ship-like form.

Although not explicitly mentioned in the story, Shen Jun speculated that the Heaven Blade Battleships were definitely mass-producible. No matter how much Yan liked Ge Xiaolun, she would never give a limited number of Heaven Blades to Earth.

Especially with Hua Ye's return and Heavenly City facing a major war.

This had nothing to do with emotions or intelligence; it was simply impossible.

Unless the Heaven Blades were not as rare as imagined, and not just the King's flagship.

The evidence was that when Yan wanted to send Heaven Blade Seven to Earth, not a single Angel expressed regret. No matter how loyal they were to Yan, they couldn't possibly be unaware of the Heaven Blade's importance, right?

Therefore, Shen Jun guessed that the "Seven" in Heaven Blade Seven didn't refer to the seventh ship, but rather an algebraic term, meaning the seventh generation of Heaven Blades.

The Heaven Blade Battleships had almost accompanied the entire Angel Civilization's progress under Keisha's leadership. It was impossible not to upgrade and replace them. As the Angels' technology became more advanced, their energy became stronger, their resources became more abundant, and their construction chains became more mature.

The Heaven Blade series of battleships, from the first-generation Keisha flagship to the seventh-generation mass-produced battleship clusters, this development was very reasonable, and could even extend to the Heavenly Base Series Battleships.

However, in this era, the Angels were greatly influenced by old technology, and the Heaven Blade One's shape was also that of a ship. In fact, not only the Angels, but almost all civilizations in the known universe had this design.

Only the God River Civilization was relatively unique. Shen Jun guessed that it was because the Super God Academy had not yet been popularized, and Kiran was preparing for the three major God-Making Projects. Once completed, he would spread the Super God Academy throughout the known universe.

So, when He Xi suddenly saw the Protoss' various warships, with their exquisite and diverse shapes, not to mention the various weapon systems they carried, how could a researcher who loved to study weapon technology not be curious?

Especially the Mothership, which looked incredibly powerful, He Xi had wanted to see what it looked like inside for a long time.

Normally, the Mothership would automatically cruise in the high skies of Aiur, and didn't need to be powered in the Psionic Matrix, so it would never land. Of course, He Xi was too embarrassed to ask to go inside.

Now that Shen Jun was going to the Sien Star System, He Xi hadn't taken it seriously. She knew about it when she gave Shen Jun the star chart. It wasn't until she saw the Mothership, which usually floated in the sky, actually move!

This was unacceptable!

"I want to go too!"

He Xi instantly opened her Wings of Time and Space, clinging tightly to Aiur's Shield.

Helpless, Shen Jun had to Warp He Xi in.

He didn't know why he did it. Although He Xi's presence or absence wouldn't affect the Protoss' plan, he seemed to be giving He Xi too many conveniences.

Apart from the Fleet Beacon and the Robotics Bay, the two core technology research centers of the Protoss, He Xi could freely view any Protoss building. Even the production lines of the Stargate and the Robotics Facility were not off-limits to He Xi's visits.

Shen Jun's office in the Twilight Council was even a place He Xi frequented daily, and she was always teasing him, yet he couldn't get angry, which was really strange.

What was even more outrageous was that He Xi really didn't treat herself as an outsider at all. She found a small lake with a beautiful environment around Daelaam, built a small wooden house herself, and designed it very beautifully.

It is worth mentioning that He Xi has represented the Angels in forming an alliance with Shen Jun, but Shen Jun emphasized one point: any civilization that interferes in the internal affairs of the Protoss will be regarded as an enemy.

And, when a major war comes, the Angels must fully assist the Protoss.

In short, He Xi boarded Aiur's Shield just like that.

After two days of continuous warping, to be honest, Shen Jun felt terrible, like he had been on a roller coaster for two days straight, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit but unable to.

Especially seeing the other Protoss acting like nothing had happened, Shen Jun felt even worse.

"Archbishop, it's normal to experience these symptoms the first time you undergo continuous warping. You'll get used to it after a while," Kerasul comforted him.

Shen Jun thought about it and figured it was true. Compared to these old monsters who had been warping for hundreds of years, he was just a newbie.

At this time, the fleet had already entered the Sien Star System, which had one star and seven planets. The Sien Civilization was on the fifth planet.

"Archbishop, we have detected a massive amount of Crystal Mineral on the fourth planet of this star system. That will be our Mineral Star."

Kerasul had naturally included the Sien Star System into "ours."

"We will have countless Mineral Stars in the future, so there's no need to name them specifically. Let's just call it Mineral Star-1," Shen Jun thought for a moment and said.

Kerasul had no objection and marked the planet as Mineral Star-1 on the Star Array, after which the fleet headed towards it.

Mineral Star-1 had no atmosphere and was not suitable for biological survival. The surface was very barren, with very little soil. Hard minerals made up the planet's crust and mantle.

Shen Jun randomly chose a landing point, and thousands of Protoss ships landed on the ground.

After being modified by the Blood of Adun, Shen Jun, like all Protoss, could adapt to the extreme environment of a vacuum.

"The environment here is terrible."

He Xi had a disgusted expression on her face, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking unhappy.

Shen Jun said with a wry smile, "Aren't your Angel's Mineral Stars like this?"

He Xi said with a serious face, "I don't know about others, but as long as I find a resource star, I will transform it."

Simulated ecological environment technology was not a sophisticated method. Creating an artificial atmosphere, then converting a layer of the crust into soil, and then accelerating the germination of plant seeds was easy. It would only take a month or two to turn a barren planet into a lush green one.

But Shen Jun believed that in the known universe, probably only a woman... a female Angel like He Xi, who loved beauty, would do such a boring thing.

After the fleet landed, Kerasul led a thousand engineering teams and fifty thousand Probes to build infrastructure in a hurry. They circled a large area to build a base.

They built a large number of Nexus Points, Pylon Cities, Medical Centers, and Forges. Not only that, but residential buildings and certain defensive fortifications were also essential. Many Photon Cannons and Shield Chargers were erected around the periphery of the entire base.

After the base was roughly completed, all the Probes went to mine on their own.

Everything in the mining base was on track, but Kerasul's work was not over, because they still needed to build a Time-Space Navigation Route.

Building a Time-Space Navigation Route required the construction of two Warp Gates. The two Warp Gates had a hyperspatial Psionic Energy connection with each other, which could realize teleportation without delay and regardless of spatial distance.

In comparison, the Great Wormhole Bridge was much inferior. The farther apart the two star systems were, the longer it took to travel through the wormhole.

However, the construction of a Time-Space Navigation Route was more complicated than a Great Wormhole Bridge.
