Becoming an Emperor Starting from the World of The Wandering Earth

Chapter 98 I am invincible, do as you please

That's right. Just 20 days ago, the upgraded Skynet deployed thousands of drones to completely destroy the so-called Sun Wall.

They successfully located the so-called vampire queen in a hidden space at the very bottom and captured her.

With this rare vampire queen as a sample, William's research made a breakthrough instantly.

While the blood of the Vampire Queen can enhance the human body, it also turns people into her subordinates, subjecting them to her control and causing them to devour humans.

But William was different; he successfully optimized it by using the training methods of exorcists and the enhancement potions provided by Murphy.

Although there was no breakthrough in physical fitness enhancement, the mortality rate dropped directly from 30% to 10%.

The probability of death is the same as not having any.

Since the original gene enhancement template was fully perfected, Murphy already has 5000 Astartes equipped with CMC. If it continues for a while, he will be able to raise at least 2.

But having too many people is also a problem, because there's nowhere to train.

Murphy had no choice but to browse through the store interface again and found a large tactical training center with ten fully functional training grounds and supporting facilities.

This thing comes as a set. After you buy it, it will be sent directly to your online store's storage space. When you take it out, you'll find a bunch of prefabricated components and a complete set of equipment.

Murphy had a large area designated on the east side of the city, dumped the equipment there, and with the help of hundreds of workers and Skynet's dispatch, a giant training base covering several square kilometers was erected in less than five days.

There are ten training grounds in the base, eight of which are for Astartes and two are reserved for regular troops.

It has everything: shooting range, obstacle course, simulated street, indoor tactical training hall.

Wilson led the new recruits in training from morning till night every day, training them so much that they would go home and fall asleep immediately, only to get up the next day and continue training.

While the military industry is booming, industrial production is also keeping pace.

The original industrial base of the Holy City was, to put it bluntly, just scrap metal.

Even with the previous optimizations and upgrades, only the foundation has been laid; it is still very difficult to make further progress.

To this end, Murphy directly pulled out a basic heavy industry system reconstruction technology package priced at 830,000 from the mall.

Once this thing arrived, the already busy Jameson became even more overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Murphy didn't intend to add any more burden to James.

During this time, Murphy would also occasionally return to the world of The Wandering Earth, using the Talent Recruitment Order to bring them over after applying mind control techniques.

Only in this way could the engineering renovation continue.

In less than a month, the previously barren land north of the Holy City was transformed into an industrial zone producing a million tons of steel annually.

It's not that output value can't be higher, but rather that it's limited by materials.

However, Murphy has already sent people to search for the mining area, and he believes that in a while, the production capacity will definitely exceed ten million or even hundreds of millions.

During this time, old Johnson and his group of engineers selected a location north of the city and began developing a new industrial zone.

With the materials in hand, everything else becomes much easier.

Murphy redeemed a bunch of various industrial equipment from the mall.

High-precision universal machine tools, automated production line technology packages for building materials and prefabricated components, and nanoscale wafer lithography lines.

One by one, click down.

In total, another two million was poured in.

After the purchase, the entire industrial system of the Holy City seemed to have been given a strong push, and it surged forward.

When industry develops, people's livelihoods naturally benefit.

The modular water purification plant was built directly outside the city, near the underground river. Once completed, it completely solved the city's water supply problem. Clean water was readily available, and there was no longer any need for rationing.

With a complete distributed smart grid system and a megawatt-level modular energy storage power station, the power supply of the holy city has increased several times over.

As for those odds and ends, Murphy was too lazy to count them.

A wide-area wireless network coverage system with tens of thousands of points of coverage, and a basic education and vocational training system with five thousand points of coverage.

After a month, the Holy City had completely changed.

Outside the city, the original 30-meter-high metal wall has been completely demolished. One kilometer away from the original site, a silver-white tower stands every 200 meters.

The tower is equipped with a phased array radar and a laser interception system.

The church square is the liveliest area.

In the center of the square stands a 1,000-meter-tall holographic statue, lit up 24 hours a day, its golden light visible from afar at night.

Below the statue is a huge display screen that continuously plays footage of the holy city's construction achievements and Astartes' training sessions.

On the screen, rows of Astartes soldiers wearing CMC-300 uniforms marched in unison, shouting slogans with great momentum.

As life improves, people naturally become more devout in their faith.

Every morning, the first thing every household does when they open their doors is to pray facing the square.

Before going to bed at night, you should also pray once.

That fervor, that piety, was more than ten times stronger than during the Papacy's rule.

Murphy sat in the church, looking at the faith points data compiled by Skynet, his lips curling into an uncontrollable smile.

Previously, he earned 200,000 a day, but now he's making 250,000. Apart from the toddlers, almost everyone in the city has become a fanatical follower of Murphy.

Even if Murphy says the sun is black now, the sun must still be black.

Because Murphy couldn't possibly be wrong; the one who must be wrong is that damned sun.

However, there's something that's been on Murphy's mind lately.

The wilderness outside the holy city, once a barren wasteland eroded by the wind, has now been leveled and compacted, creating a giant training ground capable of accommodating tens of thousands of people at the same time.

-

The wind was strong on the parade ground, but Murphy on the viewing platform remained unmoved, his gaze sweeping over the five thousand people below dressed in CMC-300 uniforms.

He scanned the faces of the power armored warriors one by one.

Five thousand people, five thousand suits of power armor, lined up in a golden steel forest under the gray-yellow skylight.

Wilson took a step forward and moved closer to Murphy.

"Sir, may we begin?"

Murphy nodded.

Having received approval, Wilson turned around, faced the audience, and took a deep breath.

"Soldiers!"

"Whoosh—"

Five thousand soldiers stood at attention simultaneously, their voices perfectly synchronized, without a single discordant sound.

"The parade begins!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the formation that had been waiting for a long time immediately began to move.

Each square formation consisted of 100 people, and there were 50 such formations in total. They marched past the reviewing stand in neat rows.

As they passed Murphy, the sound of marching filled the air; the movements of the five thousand men seemed to be guided by a single thread, raising their guns...

He holstered his gun and turned around; every movement was precise and flawless.

Murphy had dreamed of one day commanding thousands of troops, and now that it had come true, he didn't know how to express his joy.

Is it joy? Or is it joy?

Despite his inner turmoil, Murphy remained calm on the surface, continuing to gaze at the array below.
