"This is probably due to historical reasons and custom."

Yixian touched her hair as she spoke.

"Yes, times have changed. We should also consider building a larger world and a true imperial capital."

Lu Chen selected a location on the star map.

“We’ve already chosen a place. Let’s go see that amazing galaxy wonder – the Birch Tree World.”

Chapter 1557 Magnificent Rivers and Mountains, Colorful Milky Way!

boom--

With the Wan Nian Feng Xue as its flagship, the ship girls in the port area set sail one after another, forming a starship fleet that sailed majestically through the galaxy.

With his extraordinary power, Lu Chen could have instantly reached any place in the universe, but out of a sense of ritual and to take care of most of his companions, he chose this "classical" method.

"Wow--"

The various squads stayed aboard the Imperial flagship, their faces full of curiosity, chattering incessantly.

A significant number of people have never actually seen the true form of the Eternal Snowstorm. After this Overlord undergoes a high-dimensional expansion, its size is much larger than that of Earth.

"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. I can't believe how much little Lu Chen has grown up!"

Lucoa gazed at the starry sky outside the window and gave Lu Chen a warm hug.

"I remember when I first met you, the Wan Nian Feng Xue was just a tiny little thing, just like you."

"Hey, no, no, saying the commander is small seems a bit problematic, people might misunderstand. I meant the spaceship, and the commander is very powerful! Thor and I both know that!"

As she spoke, she opened her squinted eyes and added two more sentences.

"???"

Kerudela, March 7th, and others who were watching the scenery nearby blushed as they listened.

"Cough, cough cough—"

Krydella cleared her throat, trying to shift her gaze away from Lukoya's towering justice.

"However, on the other hand, we rarely have the opportunity to roam freely among the stars."

Where are we going?

"The center of the Milky Way."

Lu Chen pointed to a location on the star map.

"This will also be the capital of the future empire."

hum...

Amidst the noise and commotion.

The starship set sail from the solar system, its warp drive traversing the cosmos.

Earth is located on the edge of a cantilever arm of the Milky Way, a full 26,000 light-years from the galactic center. Thanks to the faster-than-light engine, it didn't take too long to travel there.

We flew over different star clusters and also took the opportunity to check out the construction progress of other star systems.

Unlike the vast, empty space of most worlds, the Milky Way has long been incorporated into the Empire's territory, with starships shuttling everywhere, and occasionally you can even see bored, powerful individuals traversing the void in their physical bodies.

"Look, this is the Gaia BH-1 black hole, 1600 light-years from Earth. The device on it is a matter decompression device used to extract resources from the black hole."

The ship girls also took the opportunity to explain the situation to the new local girls, helping them learn more about the country they live in.

"hiss--"

Looking up, a giant, probe-like structure pierced the core of the black hole, with countless intelligent machines and shuttles moving through the ring-shaped structure at the top.

To ordinary people in the worlds of A Certain Magical Index and Godkiller, this was nothing short of a fantasy, and even the Demon God stared at the enormous creature with great interest.

Ordinary technological things don't catch their eye, but when it comes to something like Star River Miracle, they have to spend some time understanding it.

"That's a ring world, which is divided into four habitable zones. Gravity and lighting are completely simulated by the main AI."

"Theoretically, each residential area can accommodate tens of billions of people, but we generally use it for industrial production and vacations."

Following the direction of the radiant finger, there is a giant ring-shaped structure surrounding the star, encircling the entire star along the ecliptic plane, and slowly rotating.

The planets within this galaxy, along with several surrounding galaxies, have been completely dismantled and transformed into the strangely shaped artificial celestial bodies before us.

And I've seen countless such worlds along the way.

"Wait a minute, aren't all the residents up there Bree and the Almighty Angel?!"

Crydella thought of a very strange question: the entire RimWorld was covered in all sorts of gold and purple fabrics, how odd.

She had lost count of how many Brie and Omnipotent Angels the Starsea Empire actually had.

“Occasionally there are ordinary people and other races going on vacation, and there are also mass-produced Siren girls.”

"It's terrifying," she said, her hair curled.

"Besides, quality over quantity is the key to success. Well, although there are a lot of Brie, they are capable and lovely!"

"..."

Everyone once again understood the fundamental logic and foundation of the Star Sea Empire.

Erica, Liliana, and the others were struggling to learn about the knowledge and new concepts of the interstellar era, and were staring blankly out the porthole.

Suddenly, a bizarre and indescribable black shadow swept past the window. It resembled a huge black mist, from which countless terrifying limbs and tentacles extended.

His thousands of eyes blinked, and he seemed to wave to the crowd in a friendly greeting.

817 "Ah!! What's that?!—A monster!!!"

Erica was startled.

"Don't make a fuss. That's the Cthulhu Squad. They just wander around the universe in their true forms when they're bored. Don't worry, they mean you any harm."

Jibril waved back.

"Hey, Nyaruko, you scared me! Be careful!!"

"oh!--"

The indescribable behemoth transformed into an adorable little girl with silver hair, landing on the Eternal Snowstorm and sticking out her tongue to give Lu Chen a cute look.

"Sorry, I thought this area was deserted..."

"Commander, are you on vacation? Where are you going?"

"...Aren't you the one from that day?..."

Aozaki Aoko suddenly realized that Nyaruko seemed to be there when the party started.

"Hmm, it's me. What's the problem?"

"!!!"

She looked at Nyaruko, then at Lu Chen.

"Commander, could you please tell me the race of the participants in advance next time, so I can be mentally prepared?"

(The image shows Keludela).

Chapter 1558 This is the new capital of the empire!

Along the way, I have seen countless magnificent galaxy-like structures.

Erica, Luo Hao, and other newcomers exclaimed in admiration. Indeed, only by venturing into space and casting their gaze upon more distant places could they truly understand what kind of interstellar behemoth the Star Sea Empire was.

Swah——

After passing through the densely packed Milky Way Arm and several jumps, we entered another sparse nebula.

Here, you can hardly see any celestial bodies, no sun, no black holes, only endless void, surrounded by interstellar dust clouds stretching for thousands of light-years.

Refraction from the starship's light source caused it to emit strange, multicolored light.

"We are approaching the center of the Milky Way."

Nymph looked at the star map.

From a higher dimension and a more distant perspective, the galactic center is the geometric center and dynamic core region of the Milky Way.

It is mainly composed of high-density stars and interstellar matter, as well as supermassive black holes with masses tens of millions of times that of the Sun.

The entire Milky Way galaxy rotates slowly around it, just as the Earth revolves around the Sun and the Moon revolves around the Earth.

hum...

After passing through the dust cloud, the girls who were playing around were suddenly startled and stopped what they were doing, looking ahead.

"That is...?"

What comes into view is a gigantic, immeasurably large man-made celestial body.

Its outer layer has a black metallic sheen and seems to have many complex patterns, shrouded in a light blue energy shield.

Even on an astronomical scale, it is ridiculously large. Stars appear like pixels in its presence and quickly disappear into the dark cosmic background if not observed closely.

"Birch Tree World".

Lu Chen answered.

"If you were to use a transliteration, you could call it Birch World, like Dyson Sphere or Alderson Disc, which comes from some wildly imaginative science fiction concept and is named after its proposer. However, I prefer the name Birch World."

"With the help of advanced technology and magic, we are able to turn those fantasies into reality."

"what……"

Everyone looked up at the endless wonder of the starry sky, their hearts and minds shaken.

It is a giant artificial celestial body built on the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, enveloping the core of the entire galaxy at its center, serving as the celestial body's energy and gravitational source.

The anti-gravity structure is nested on top like a matryoshka doll, dividing it into countless regions.

boom!--

The starship slowly approached the Birch Tree World.

After passing through the shield and over the artificial atmosphere, there was an endless expanse of plains stretching from one end of the field of vision to the horizon.

“We have just completed the construction of the main structure, but the ecological environment above it has not yet been transformed. We will call Tiamat over to discuss it later.”

The nanorobot peered over and drew a circle on the holographic map.

"This is the central area. Let's build the main buildings here, within a radius of 3 astronomical units. We can expand the magic academy, engineering academy, and so on."

"So big..."

Aglaia was somewhat dazed.

The birch tree world has been divided into different regions by hyperdimensional technology, with a surface area that is almost infinite, which is on a completely different scale from ordinary planets.

"Huh?! In that case, won't we have to use a spaceship to jump around to move around here?"

I was startled on March 7th.

"The stargate network has been set up, similar to a teleportation array. For short distances, you can use magic or a shuttle to solve the problem yourself, and for long distances, you can use the stargate."

Little Grey pouted and, after landing, led everyone through the stargate.

In the blink of an eye, I landed in another area, like stepping into a miniature universe.

“We were on the outermost layer just now. This is the second layer of the Birch World. Except for the last two layers which are used for energy and maintenance modules, the remaining layers can be built into residential areas or agricultural and industrial blocks.”

"We're underground?!"

Xi Lian looked up and saw that the sky above was still blue with white clouds, not at all like entering the second layer of the nesting doll.

"Is it a holographic simulation of sunlight and sky?"

Karen asked, recalling that there were similar structures on Earth.

"No, it's true. We placed an artificial sun in each layer of space and interfered with its operation through a gravitational field to create the most perfect ecological environment."

The Great Black Tower answered.
