Chapter 1087: Chapter 193: Starport 1

Gao Gong managed to persuade everyone to reluctantly drop their guard and accept this new Old Walter.

However, the Little Woman seriously told Gao Gong that Old Walter could oversee the clone project, but she would definitely have someone monitor it at all times.

Since Gao Gong was reckless with his words, admitting that this resurrected Old Walter had no differences in memory or worldview from the previous Old Walter.

And just recently, that Old Walter almost wiped out the high ranks of the legion with a genetic bomb.

Ye the Big Lolita also suggested wiping this ’Old Walter’s’ brain a few more times, in this regard, Machine Split Star’s corporate technology is particularly adept, with corporate persona, thought steel seal, and clocking brainwashing methods aplenty.

Old Walter was noncommittal about this, his eyes calm yet seeming to contain an indescribable turbulent wave, but in the eyes of the crowd, it felt like this guy could betray at any time; best tame him, or kill him outright.

Ultimately, Gao Gong fought against all objections and outright vetoed these proposals, reasoning who could surpass the Information Mother in brainwashing technology.

Moreover, Gao Gong even intends, at some future point, to entrust the task of filling out the technology tree to Old Walter.

The reason is simple: among the seven templates on his side, aside from the race template, clone template, leader template, there’s also a boss template. And this boss template is the most cherished among all templates; it’s the legendary ’technology tree template.’

Governance Skill (Ascension Talent):

Well-read Science Books: As a leader-in-reserve, you always have the fastest understanding of the current civilization’s technology tree.

Proving Truth and Falsehood: You can always rationally allocate the project funds needed for different ’technology assets.’

Track Priority: You will assess the developmental potential of different technology tracks, then choose the optimal one, with a +20% chance of overtaking in curves for a certain industry of civilization.

This is the legendary ’Innate Science-Throwing Holy Body.’ Although, in terms of professional level, Old Walter is outmatched by any master specialized in a specific realm, from an alliance perspective, ten master-level scientists might not compare to him.

After all, Gao Gong has the blueprint system, and these millions of players also have the blueprint system.

Though 90% of blueprints obtained through gambling are mere waste paper.

But there’s always some good stuff in the pile of waste paper.

And if these blueprints can be utilized, their role will be much stronger than using players as cannon fodder.

Gao Gong suddenly felt that perhaps it would be fitting to give this Old Walter more responsibilities.

But there’s no need to tell others about this for now. After obtaining the planet cannon permissions, alliance points increased again by ’6 million,’ and Tier 4 architecture still can’t match Old Walter.

This is not surprising; from a long-term developmental perspective, the role of a high-level individual with a ’technology tree template’ is definitively stronger than one Tier 4 architecture.

After accepting the planet cannon, the group entered the starport again, the sole Tier 4 building on this planet, from a production perspective, the starport is even more important than the planet cannon.

If the spaceport is considered the space plus version of a seaport, then the starport is an enhanced version of the spaceport.

Though they differ by only one tier, it reflects the civilization’s tier.

If the spaceport acts like a refuel station for the ’interstellar highway,’ the starport is a super interstellar dock that integrates starship manufacturing, weapon production, goods transportation, and biotechnology development. Civilly, its production capability far surpasses the mechanical planet; militarily, it’s equivalent to a hundred interstellar fortresses.

However, according to the description on the system panel, this ’starport’ is not complete.

Name: Starport (Completion Rate: 34%)

Category: Large Planet Architecture

Quality: Tier 4

Weight: 3.2 trillion billion tons

Basic Attributes: Large starship production efficiency (unbuilt), medium-sized starship production efficiency (100 ships/planet day), small starship production efficiency (500 ships/planet day), spaceship production efficiency (1000 ships/planet day), star shuttle production efficiency (50000 units/planet day), Tier 3 clone production efficiency (1 unit/planet day), Tier 2 clone production efficiency (1000 units/planet day), energy skateboard (silver) production efficiency (not activated), Tier 2 energy weapon production efficiency (100,000 units/planet day), Tier 3 energy weapon production efficiency (100 units/planet day)

(Due to completion rate, the port’s production efficiency is only 40% and cannot operate at full capacity; operators may freely adjust power capacity to boost the production of different templates)

Large Port District: Ship Production Port District (Basic Function: 45%), Weapon Production Port District (Basic Function: 23%), Species Production Port District (Basic Function: 58%), another 7 port districts remain unbuilt

Note: The starport encompasses most of the basic functions of Tier 4 mechanical architecture, but it can only be fully realized and upgraded to measure manufacturing levels of a mechanical civilization.

While the image of the planet cannon is like a headband wrapped around a planet, with the equator as an axis, twisting round by round; then, the shape of the starport resembles pomegranate seeds in a fruit, where each ’pomegranate chamber’ is a port district, and the seeds represent galaxy production areas, intertwined and interlinked. A complete starport in terms of planetary development surpasses a complete mechanical planet.

However, the starport installed on Long-horned Whale Alpha is not complete. Furthermore, since it’s a resource planet, the largest energy factory can be directly discarded, so its ’occupying area’ only covers 7% of Long-horned Whale Alpha, with merely ten thousand entrances and exits scattered across the planet.

Moreover, crucially, the starport’s production port district is not connected to the Land of Crystal Core, meaning it can’t unleash true productive capacity during planetary battles.

From a theoretical standpoint, architectural structures like the starport could temporarily exhibit production efficiency reaching 1000% if cost considerations were disregarded. This illustrates the burst seed intensity of Tier 4 military architecture, decomposing from microscopic particles, reshaping from functional modules; it’s the super plus version of the 3D printer.

"Then why not do it?" Gao Gong curiously asked.

"The constructor of the starport only completed part of the basic functions and then left, we simply don’t have the blueprints in our hands," Old Walter spoke.

"Wasn’t that Interstellar Khan planning to use this planet as an invasion forward station? Why didn’t they complete the groundwork? Did the negotiation fail?"

"That content was overseen by another clone; I did not participate," Old Walter replied. "But according to that Walter, after establishing the basic starport, they left via the star gate."

"Leaving through the star gate, are you sure it’s the star gate? The star gate is a Tier Seven architecture."

"At least visually, it matches exactly the materials we downloaded from the Void Knowledge Library of the Civilization Council."

"Your cloned civilization actually managed to connect with the Civilization Council? Seems your development has been quite impressive."

Gao Gong raised an eyebrow.

It’s worth noting, that bewitching creature from the Civilization Council isn’t something just any cat or dog can cozy up to. According to his understanding, Level 3 civilizations with Ascension chances greater than 40% would activate certain council sub-permissions, which include the ’Void Knowledge Library.’"

Although this knowledge library can’t compare to those few Cosmic-level academic organizations, its overview of civilization classification and introduction is the most extensive.

After all, they are specialized in this work—registering all civilization types within the Observable Cosmos.

"A genuine star gate is highly unlikely, probably a reproduction of a star gate, yet still quite formidable, indicating that nomadic interstellar civilization possesses pseudo-star gate manufacturing technology."
