Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 405 What a pig's brain!

In Li Qingsong's view, were those spaceships merely habitable?

Do not!
Those weren't habitable spaceships, they were fields!

Just as an old farmer tends his fields and reaps bags of grain at harvest time, Li Qingsong feeds the ordinary people living in the spaceship, thus continuously producing scientists.

When the population expands to a certain size, the emergence of highly intelligent and scientifically capable individuals is no longer accidental, but inevitable.

For example, if the average birth rate of outstanding scientists is one in 1000, then for every 10 million newborns, there will almost certainly be around 100 outstanding scientists.

There may be some deviations, but it won't deviate too much from the number 100.

This is why Li Qingsong spared no expense in building so many habitation spaceships and protected them at the core of his territory no matter where he went.

Now, these habitation spaceships are being destroyed one by one. To Li Qingsong, this is like watching an old farmer's farmland being destroyed piece by piece in front of him!

Simply unbearable!

However... facing star beasts whose gravity control was more profound and skillful than his own, whose biological weapons were more powerful, whose mobility and defense were also superior, and who were filled with the flames of revenge, Li Qingsong had no good solutions.

Then we'll have to use our trump card!
Under Li Qingsong's arrangement, at the moment when their own defense line was about to be breached, and with the desperate protection of their own fleet, numerous aerospace carriers and various spaceships carrying the Wanli Power Field component regrouped.

At this moment, the star beasts, who had already learned their lesson once, were in an uproar.

The original tactical system was instantly broken, and each star beast began to fight independently. Although their charging directions were different, they all had one thing in common.

They distanced themselves from each other, dispersed from each other, and did their utmost to reduce the number and density of star beasts in a single area.

Clearly, the Star Beasts have learned from their mistakes and figured out a way to counter the Universal Force Field.

Since we can't withstand it by brute force alone, we should find a way to expand the coverage area of ​​your universal force field. The larger the volume, the lower the impact per unit area.

Within the same level, this can probably be considered the only loophole in the Universal Force Field.

Faced with the actions of the Star Beasts, the only thing Li Qingsong could do was to speed up the construction of the Universal Force Field components and at the same time do his best to mobilize the fleet to gather the Star Beasts into a smaller area.

Amidst this all-out struggle between the two sides, the Universal Force Field component was finally completed and activated.

Endless explosions and flashes of fire once again illuminated space. Coupled with the chaotic gravitational forces in this region and the effect of spatial distortion on the transmission of light, the entire sky was filled with flickering, distorted, and chaotic light.

As the light finally faded, Li Qingsong tallied the results and saw that even though the star beasts had executed the only correct response, more than 30 enormous star beasts had still been killed by this attack.

In addition, approximately 20 star beasts suffered relatively serious damage, greatly reducing their combat effectiveness.

The gains from this attack were considerable. However, Li Qingsong remained deeply concerned.

Because he knew very well that this was only a temporary tactical victory and would not affect the overall strategy.

Let alone defeating these star beasts, this victory couldn't even allow our main fleet to break out of the siege.

At best, it can only temporarily reduce the pressure of being besieged, allowing them to spare some energy for ground industrial construction.

And... the Universal Force Field is his biggest trump card.

This trump card should have been used at a more crucial moment, one that could decide the outcome, not at this very beginning of the battle!

But Li Qingsong really had no other choice.

The situation is developing and changing too rapidly. From the very beginning of this war, numerous unfavorable factors have already been introduced. If this trump card isn't played now, there might never be a chance to use it at all.

Looking out at the gas giant, Li Qingsong saw that a continuous stream of enormous star beasts were breaking through the clouds and converging to join the attack on him.

He knew that it probably wasn't that the star beasts were holding back or playing some piecemeal tactic, but rather...

These later-added star beasts are most likely newly born.

Inside that gas giant, there must almost certainly be numerous star beasts frantically producing offspring to replenish the losses at the front.

At this rate, it will only take less than 10 years for the damage caused to the Star Beasts by the Universal Force Field to be completely offset, and the number of Star Beasts will once again return to its peak.

These 10 years were Li Qingsong's only opportunity to build an industrial system.

"Your biggest trump card only bought you a mere 10 years of breathing room..."

Li Qingsong took a deep breath: "I'll say it again, let's stabilize the situation first, and we'll talk about the rest later!"

Taking advantage of the slight reduction in pressure from the star beasts, Li Qingsong, with almost frenzied enthusiasm, began industrial construction on this rocky planet that had been severely bombed and was almost completely destroyed.

Time flew by. During this time, Li Qingsong truly experienced what it meant to be completely dominated.

There is no exaggeration, no falsehood. In these ten years, Li Qingsong has only done one thing.

They defended, defended with all their might, relying mainly on that flying star, constantly producing large numbers of manned and unmanned warships and unmanned combat facilities, and then throwing them into space as if they were free, only to be mercilessly annihilated by the enraged star beasts.

Not to mention breaking out, they couldn't even take the initiative to mobilize some troops in the hope of gaining a tactical advantage in a local battlefield. They could only run around frantically, scrambling to mobilize war reserves to plug the gaps wherever the defenses were about to be breached.

No matter how busy Li Qingsong was or how much war supplies he produced, the problems seemed endless; patching one place would only result in another appearing. Patching one place would only result in yet another appearing elsewhere.

If it weren't for the significant advancements in his technology over the years, which allowed him to rebuild the entire fleet several times, Li Qingsong would never have been able to hold on until now.

But now, the torment that Li Qingsong has endured is finally coming to an end.

Even though this planet is covered in lava, prone to earthquakes, and has mountains that collapse or rise from the plains every now and then, Li Qingsong still managed to build a complete industrial system on this planet using his solid mid-stage gravity technology!

Faced with this planet constantly in turmoil, Li Qingsong dug tens of thousands of tunnels thousands of kilometers deep. He then used high-yield hydrogen bomb explosions to preemptively trigger major instabilities, causing them to erupt in his designated directions and locations to prevent them from impacting his overall industrial construction. Unstable mountains were simply blasted flat, and areas at risk of volcanic eruptions were directly tunneled to reduce internal pressure. After this series of adjustments, and by using special materials to reinforce the strata and suppress magma, he finally completed his mission.

The planet had been almost completely depleted. The remaining resources were then stored away for use in emergencies. Resource supplies from the major planet finally resumed, and numerous factories began operating at full capacity, producing all sorts of war supplies at an even faster pace than before.

Even though the number of star beasts participating in the siege has returned to its peak before being bombarded by the Universal Force Field, the previously precarious defensive line has been stabilized at this moment.

Although he is still facing a situation where he is being suppressed, at least the situation where there are loopholes everywhere and Li Qingsong is busy running around has been changed.

Li Qingsong finally let out a long sigh of relief.

"We've managed to hold on for now. So... what's the next step?"

Although the situation has been temporarily stabilized, it is only a temporary stabilization.

The Star Beasts couldn't break through his defenses, and he couldn't break through their blockade either. Moreover, he had to focus all his energy on industrial production, leaving him no time for scientific research, let alone rebuilding the Universal Force Field components.

If this continues, when will it end?

Moreover, the current situation is too stalemate. If there is any unexpected event, such as the arrival of another star beast group with only a strong core at its peak, the balance of power will be broken instantly, and we will be wiped out in an instant.

Even if the stalemate continues, what about the Grey Worm civilization?
Who knows what the Grey Worm civilization is planning? With all this time wasted, who knows what changes might occur?

Then...why don't we try to negotiate?

Since this star beast was able to reach an agreement with the Gray Worm Civilization and set a trap for itself, it might be able to negotiate with itself now.

With this in mind, Li Qingsong immediately began broadcasting into space using gravitational waves, electromagnetic waves, and the language of the Morais civilization.

"What happened back then was not our fault. We were just an innocent victim. You cannot blame us for the destruction of the Star Beast Kingdom!"
The Destroyer Civilization is also our enemy. Now that the Galactic Alliance has been formed, we are planning to join it and declare war on the Destroyer Civilization together with other civilizations!
Our industrial system is now complete, and your forces are incapable of breaching our defenses. Therefore, there's no point in continuing this entanglement. If you desire revenge, you should join the Galactic Alliance!
To facilitate cooperation, we are willing to transfer scientific and technological data and high-tech resources to you. If you have any other needs, we will do our best to provide them. Everything is negotiable!
We are allies, not enemies!

Li Qingsong wasn't quite sure what the Star Beast Calamity needed to evolve, nor did he know if this technological data would be useful to them.

But at least Li Qingsong showed his attitude. Whatever you want, I'll customize it for you!

But Li Qingsong was disappointed once again.

This time, the star beasts did not remain silent, but responded.

"The Destroyer Civilization must die, and so must your Lantuk Civilization! We'll wipe you out first, then join the Galactic Alliance and destroy the Destroyer Civilization!"

Li Qingsong's heart was instantly filled with rage.

Since you already know the current situation, why are you still so stubborn and determined to destroy me?
But no matter how hard Li Qingsong tried to analyze the pros and cons, the star beasts only replied with the same sentence.

The Destroyer must die, and Lantuk must die too!

"You're all a bunch of pig-headed idiots!"

Enraged, Li Qingsong cursed, "No wonder your Star Beast Kingdom was so easily destroyed! Since you want me dead, then don't blame me!"

At this moment, Li Qingsong had no more illusions left.

Li Qingsong had been planning a new tactic.

The tactic is simple: break through the Star Beasts' defenses, dispatch a fleet of electric shepherds to escort the electromagnetic lifeforms to the star, and then use the electric shepherd fleet as cover to protect the electromagnetic lifeforms, using the star as a base to provide support to our side.

With the addition of the Stellar Cannon, the battle will likely turn in our favor.

However, this tactic faces a problem.

Although the Star Beasts could not break through his defenses, it was almost impossible for him to break through the Star Beasts' encirclement.

There was simply no way for them to send the electromagnetic lifeforms to the star.

But now, Li Qingsong has a solution.

Since I'm confined to the vicinity of the planet and can't leave, and this tactic requires sending the electromagnetic lifeforms to the star, then...

I'll push this planet to the edge of the star!

Pushing a planet wouldn't normally be a big deal for Li Qingsong. However, the planet had just suffered a severe blow and was extremely unstable. Forcing it forward would likely cause unimaginable damage to his industrial system.

But I can't worry about that now!
Since you star beasts are so unreasonable, I'll accept the losses to the industrial system!
Li Qingsong gritted his teeth and immediately risked having the star beasts break through his defenses, forcibly diverting a portion of the production capacity to the construction of the planetary thruster.

At worst, we'll just go back to the old situation, riddled with vulnerabilities. We've been through this before, after all!
With a determined heart, the towering planetary thrusters, as tall as mountains, rose up one by one.

To cope with the chaotic environment of this planet, Li Qingsong had to dig the foundations for these thrusters extremely deep. The deepest one even reached a depth of 1000 kilometers.

Within this 1000-kilometer-thick layer of fractured rock, Li Qingsong had to excavate dozens of horizontal expansion surfaces and inject massive amounts of special cement inside to solidify the entire stratum. Only in this way could the broken planet be given the ability to withstand the enormous thrust of the thrusters.

This made Li Qingsong's planetary propulsion plan extremely complex and difficult.

With external attacks and slow internal progress, the situation was extremely dire, but Li Qingsong gritted his teeth and managed to pull through.

More than a decade later, all of the more than one million planetary engines have finally been completed.

start up!

In an instant, a fierce plasma tail shot into the sky like a cannon. The next moment, all the spaceships and star beasts in that airspace, friend or foe, were blown into interstellar dust as if they had been sanded.
