Star Iron, after using the mod to make the Big Black Tower dark, the game became real

Wearing slippers and clutching a pure white bath towel, she ran to the bedroom, grabbing two bags of snacks from the coffee table along the way.

Jiang Wei could smell the lingering scent of the young girl's bath milk on his body.

Has he achieved his goal of making Firefly obedient and compliant as a pet?

He may not have won, but Firefly can pretend he did.

……

Research on nanorobots has come to an end.

The Great Black Tower handed over a Grammer cavalry unit to Jiang Wei.

"This is the result?"

"Yes, it can absorb 'reproduction' destiny energy, imaginary energy, and mental energy. At the same time, it is itself a nanobot within a mechanical swarm, without a doubt."

When Jiang Wei touched the Grammer cavalry, he felt countless dreamlike spirits joyfully bowing to him.

Self-replicating nanorobots are inherently in line with the philosophy of "reproduction," and once they possess the Dream Spirit as their soul, their destiny unfolds smoothly.

However, unlike normal Destiny Walkers, the Breeding Destiny cannot endow nanobots with much power or the ability to become Commanders.

Because the dream spirit and the iron cavalry are too disconnected.

For dream spirits, the Grammer Iron Cavalry is like a piece of clothing; they can wear it and discard it at any time.

"It's a pity there's no way to create a 'breeding' envoy."

The Great Black Tower patted the Iron Cavalry helplessly, feeling disappointed in them.

“I can’t understand the Dream Spirits, and neither can Ruan Mei. No matter how we try, we can’t convince them to wholeheartedly embark on the path of reproduction.”

"Because dream spirits themselves don't have the concept of 'reproduction'; they are concepts and phenomena. You can't expect a wisp of air to have the idea of ​​reproduction."

But even if it is only to breed those destined to follow, rather than to command them.

The true power of nanobots is far greater than that of the envoy.

Because it is a mixture of three forces: destiny energy, imaginary energy, and spiritual energy.

It relies on self-replication, giving it a certain amount of time to develop.

If Jiang Wei wanted to, he could have launched a super war involving both a "global locust plague" and an "imperial war."

"Where should we let them multiply? Anyway, not within the Empire's borders. A rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow."

"let me see."

Jiang Wei pondered for a few minutes.

What about parallel universes?

"The time nexus requires a lot of time difference material to repair history and ensure that the abrupt changes in the timeline do not deviate too much. Doing so is not worth the cost."

"Then forget it, just throw them into the company territory and let them have a buffet."

"good idea."

The Great Black Tower opened a portal, sending the Grammer cavalry directly to the border of the Empire.

The moment they left the borders of the Empire, the Grammer Iron Cavalry disintegrated, turning into a wisp of pale mist that flew toward an unclaimed planet.

They will devour all matter and enemies along the way, create more nanobots, and then launch attacks into the company's territory.

……

A disaster is unfolding.

Interstellar Peace Corporation is hard to describe.

A global locust plague?

No, they are nanorobots.

Imperial War?

No, that's not right. They're breeding like crazy, and the energy of their "breeding" destiny is so active that it's even awakening the company's nightmare.

……

Strategic Investment Department, Conference Room.

A deathly silence quietly spread.

The ten members of Shi Xin stared at the monitor screen in silence for a long time.

on the screen.

A pale storm swept across everything, from ships damaged thousands of years ago to abandoned space stations and desolate planets.

Organic matter, inorganic matter, everything.

After the storm passed, everything in the world was wiped out.

They clearly saw the planet being swallowed by an invisible force, and suddenly an abnormal gravity caused the Earth's crust to crack, and a burst of heat erupted from the Earth's core into space.

The storms absorbed the energy of the heat flow, briefly turning crimson red. They became even more active, like a swarm of locusts, devouring the planet until nothing was left.

It devoured the first planet and then flew towards the second planet.

After the bizarre eating scene ended.

An entire star system, with only a lone star burning.

Nothing else was left; everything was eaten clean.

The most outrageous thing is that when this storm encountered the company's fleet, they actually turned into a group of Grammer cavalry.

They assembled a galaxy-destroying weapon on site, which pierced through the battleship's shields with a single shot.

The missile array fired in unison, and the antimatter annihilation turned the fleet into a pile of space debris, making it their meal.

Sand Gold gasped.

"Nanobots? The Grammer's iron cavalry destined for 'breeding'? Am I seeing things...?"

"Could it be that the Star God of Propagation has manifested himself, abandoning the outdated organic form and choosing the more efficient and easier-to-maintain inorganic form?"

Toppa sighed.

"Stop guessing. The company has assigned us the task of fighting it."

"what?"

Sand Gold stopped playing with his chips, his expression turning serious.

"We're fighting a combination of a global locust plague and an imperial war? Really...?"

Chapter 109 The Company's Complete Collapse, The Ideal City Plan

The company is going through a tough time lately.

The Empire developed the "Time Coating Projector" and the "Time End Termination Strike".

The casualty ratio on the main battlefield reached an extremely high level.

In the past, the company could replace at least one of the Empire's warships of the same class when it lost three warships, or at best, one dead and one wounded.

But now... it's a long story.

The high-ranking officials in the conference room watched the monitor screen as a border invasion war was underway.

The company's battleships charged up their main guns and fired beam spears with the power to destroy stars.

This devastating beam struck the Imperial battleship at unparalleled speed.

In a normal combat scenario, it should be a process of both sides depleting each other's shields.

Whoever's shield is breached first will suffer damage to its hull first, leading to a chain reaction of defeats.

However, shockingly, when the company's light spears came into contact with the shields of the Imperial battleships, they shattered into twelve scattered laser beams as if a mirror had broken.

Only one beam hit the target, while the rest dissipated into the void.

The company's warships, with their attacks significantly weakened, were not even in the same league as the Empire's full-power main guns.

After only two exchanges of fire, the company's battleship was torn apart by the scorching light spears.

The airtight bulkhead shattered, oxygen leaked rapidly, and the extreme cold of the vacuum quickly swallowed up the temperature maintained by the artificial temperature control system.

The surviving crew members hastily donned life jackets, but only one percent survived the initial hull damage.

The rest of the crew were frozen solid in an instant.

Even the hundreds of thousands of survivors who managed to escape looked up and saw the Grammer cavalry pouring out of the Imperial warships like swarms of bees.

These war machines raised laser-guided arrays on their shoulders, and kaleidoscopic heat beams precisely pierced through the fragile shields of their life jackets, annihilating all survivors in a fiery inferno with overwhelming force.

"A head-on confrontation... a complete defeat."

"The kill ratio is about 100:1. The company has to lose 100 warships to replace just one of the Empire's warships."

Each level of upgrade to armor and energy shield technology brings a significant advantage.

The Empire's Time Coating technology offers far more than just a level 1 upgrade.

The company's front lines collapsed at an irreversible rate.

We can't fight anymore; they can't afford this war.

Because it’s such a loss.

Knowing full well that any engagement would result in huge losses for the company, and that they wouldn't even be able to replace a single fleet of the Empire, how could they possibly continue to invest money in such a bottomless pit?

"How's the situation on the other side?"

The company's senior management turned their attention to the strategic investment department.

……

The Stonehearts face nanobots formed by the fusion of the "Universal Locust Plague" and the "Emperor's War".

Initially, a seemingly foolproof strategy was devised.

They assembled a super fleet consisting of 200 battleships, 1500 cruisers, and 30 frigates.

The plan is to launch a surprise attack on the target star system via jump, overwhelming the enemy with sheer firepower.

Even if they suffer a defeat in battle, they can still gain a tactical advantage by sacrificing their fleet to reduce the number of nanobots.

However, the situation developed far beyond expectations.

Before the arrival of the Strategic Investment Department's fleet, the Dream Spirit controlling the nanobots, under the influence of Xi Lian's "Secret Realm Governance" trait, completed an astonishing fusion, transforming into a colossal Dream Beast that blotted out the sky.

Just as the company's fleet was about to engage the nanobots, this entity infiltrated the ship's systems in a way that defied the laws of physics, turning the entire fleet into a self-destructive prison.

In an instant, the fleet was plunged into chaos.

The fire control system was tampered with and commanded to kill each other. The cruiser's plasma gun turrets turned their guns around to bombard friendly forces, and the escort fleet was turned into fireballs in a rain of indiscriminate missiles.

Sand Gold stood on the bridge, watching as a battleship's star-destroying main cannon completed its charge and pierced through the porthole, locking onto his brow.

At the critical moment, the emergency jump device that Jade had pre-installed activated, teleporting him to a safe airspace.

Behind them, the massive steel ship, corrupted by spirits, was disintegrating in flames.

The battle lines collapsed.

The ten members of Stoneheart were utterly defeated by the Dream Spirit before they even saw the nanobots.

Inside the meeting room, everyone's expression was one of astonishment, disappointment, or gloom.

The oppressive atmosphere made it difficult to breathe, and anxiety caused their hearts to race and their foreheads to be covered in sweat.

Placer Gold was the first to ask a question.

"how to spell?"

Should we utilize the power of the guardianship order?

Putting aside whether it's possible to suppress the arrogance of the nanobots, even if it were possible, could they be killed off in a short time?

Nanobots grew from weak planetary-level creatures to star-level creatures by devouring planets, all in just a few hours.

They might miss a single nanobot, but just a few days later, they'll be delighted to see a fully-equipped nanobot in perfect condition.
