Chapter 66: Large Building Robots

  All the Golden Illuminators were killed by nuclear cannons, and now only 263 Silver Illuminators of the Illuminati Empire's ruling class are left. There are over 364,000 Martians living in 160 caves of varying sizes on the nine-layer underground tunnels.

  To facilitate the management of so many people, Li Yang promoted Jiao and Qiao to Golden Bright Protectors, with each person managing 131 Bright Messengers, allowing these Bright Messengers to disperse and manage each cave.

  Liyang soon discovered that the practice of magic on Mars was always a privilege reserved for the king, and ordinary Martians had no chance of accessing it. This was also a decision made by all previous kings of Mars to consolidate their imperial power.

  Practice has proved that this method is also very effective.

  The Radiant Empire has ravaged Mars to this state, and for thousands of years, many tyrants have emerged, but the imperial power has never fallen, also thanks to this reason. The emperor has the supreme magic in his hands, no matter how decadent and shameless he is, he can always turn the tide at critical moments and kill the rebels one by one.

  The Queen of Mars has lived for over two hundred years, and these golden light guardians are extremely favored by the queen. Each one knows a little magic, and even when the queen flies with her sword, they are brought along. However, all of these people have now followed the queen to death, and Li Yang's path to learning magic is also blocked.

  Those silver-robed messengers were able to run so fast because the shoes on their feet were specially made, allowing them to sprint at high speed in the cave, with each step covering over ten meters, and reaching speeds of over 100 miles per hour.

  And in their hands were weapons, a kind of laser gun that could emit super-powered dark yellow lasers, which was quite unusual.

  Mars Science and Earth are vastly different, but they also have many similarities. Even the titles of Emperor and Majesty are eerily similar, making Li Yang even more convinced that Martian life and Earth life share a common origin.

  Afterwards, Li Yang followed Qiao Gen and walked a circle in the vast Bright Empire cave, visiting the nutrient solution mixing center that was previously under the Queen's management, and the Mars insect breeding center.

  Originally, Li Yang thought that the Martian bug was a special creature. After taking a closer look, he exclaimed "Damn it!", and found out that this little insect is exactly the same as the cockroaches on Earth!

  It's been said that this so-called "little strong" insect has super strong vitality, and now it's indeed true. It can live very comfortably in harsh environments like Mars, truly deserving of its name "little strong".

  No wonder Lai Yang had only wanted to vomit when he smelled those nutrient fluids before, this stuff cooked into porridge would be good if you saw a ghost! Just thinking about his poor subjects relying on eating these filthy little insect paste for thousands of years made Lai Yang's heart twitch.

  He made up his mind in secret and immediately returned to Earth to move a large amount of food for them to eat their fill!

  Although it's not easy to support 360,000 people, Li Yang is now wealthy and can afford it.

  Although there is no liquid water on the surface of Mars, underground dark rivers are still abundant.

  They had nuclear power plants over a thousand years ago, because they used a large amount of hard cyan as reactor components, and ran for over a thousand years without any problems, providing the tens of millions of Martians with an endless supply of electric resources.

  There is water and electricity, which makes them not completely extinct. Although the living standard is unbearable, even if Leyang didn't help, they could still continue for hundreds or thousands of years without any problem.

  The Martian Nutrition Allocation Center was actually a huge cavern, only slightly smaller than their trading hall. Inside, there were numerous electrically heated bucket-like large pots stewing the bodies of Martian worms.

  These metal artifacts have been used for thousands of years, and not only are they not rusty, but also undamaged. The excellent properties of this kind of metal can be seen at a glance!

  Strictly speaking, the hardness of osmium exceeds that of diamond, its toughness surpasses that of steel, and it is completely stable in nature, never oxidizing - truly the most perfect metal in the universe.

  Ley began to dig up the Qingjin mine vein, which was very difficult and had been worried about it. Now that he knows the excellent characteristics of this metal, he is silent.

  Liyang, who was very curious about how the Martians mined this green gold ore, specially let Qiao and Yin take him to visit a mine. After taking a look, he suddenly realized that they didn't use tools like pickaxes or iron shovels to dig directly, but instead used a tool powered by electricity to emit shock waves that shattered the rocks, similar to the principle of machines on Earth that crush stones in the human body, but with a power thousands of times greater.

  Although the Qingjin mine is extremely hard, it can still be nibbled away bit by bit in front of a continuous and ultra-strong impact wave. Although each person's work efficiency is not high, there are many people with great strength, and the amount of Qingjin ore and medium-grade diamonds excavated by these three million people every day is quite impressive.

  Overall, although the Martians' standard of living is not great, they have inherited the technological achievements of a thousand years ago, and their level of civilization is still far higher than that of Earthlings. If Earthlings were faced with the same difficulties as them, I estimate that they would have become extinct a hundred times over!

  After understanding the general living conditions of the Martians, Li Yang was deeply shocked by their tenacious vitality and also felt a heavy burden on his shoulders. Rapidly and drastically improving their living environment is the biggest problem in front of him, after all, he is not a Martian king for nothing.

  As the King of Mars Bright Empire, Li Yang also received many benefits. He was worshipped by tens of millions of Martians, which was nothing to him. What made him ecstatic was that he found a large amount of Qingjin metal in the national treasury. After letting the mining ships collect them all, he discovered that there were over 190 billion tons!

  These metals have been sealed in the warehouse for over a thousand years, all of which were refined from the ore dug up by the Martian predecessors when they excavated this underground palace, and now they are all cheaper than Liuyang.

  After Li Yang finished inspecting the various caves of his empire, he bid farewell to Qiao and Yin as well as a large group of Bright Messengers. He was about to board a mining ship to leave when he naturally walked towards the massive cave that led to the surface of Mars.

  It wasn't until now that he discovered that under the massive cyan crystal gate, there was another layer of plasma membrane blocking the air inside the cave from escaping into Mars' atmosphere, far more complicated than what he had seen before.

  In the midst of a massive farewell wave, Li Yang drove his excavator ship, which had transformed into a flying saucer-like shape, out of the open gate and instantly arrived in outer space.

  As soon as he and Tie Tou appeared in space, the flying saucer star brain noticed them. Its terrified voice echoed in Li Yang's mind: "Ah, Li Yang, you've got so many medium-grade diamonds? Wow, how much is this? 9.78 tons! Heaven and earth, I'm going to get rich now! Haha, with these things, Li Yang, wherever you want to go, I can take you there, anywhere in the universe!"

  "Wait, what is this? Qingjin! You've obtained 190 billion tons of qingjin! Isn't that too exaggerated? Qingjin mines are also rare treasures on the Xiuzhen planet! Liuyang, you're defying the heavens. These things may be useless to me, but for you, they're a huge fortune!"

  Xing's excited loud shouting made Li Yang feel greatly surprised, it seemed that this time's gain was really too big, making Xing who usually had a big appetite unable to calm down.

  Ten tons of medium-grade diamonds, equivalent to one million tons of low-grade diamonds. For Li Yang, who was already terrified by the tens of tons of diamonds he had heard about earlier, the sense of satisfaction was beyond words.

  It's worth mentioning that there are now over 300,000 Martian laborers working hard to mine for him, and later there will be a steady supply of mid-range diamonds. This is what's truly important. He has essentially acquired a money tree, where wealth falls from the sky with just a slight shake.

  "Qīng jīn is very powerful, our mining ship can only move half a meter in one second when digging this kind of ore, it's like crawling bit by bit." Lí Yáng said to Xīng Nǎo with complaint.

  "Be content, the weight of qingjin is almost the same as that of metal aluminum, and its melting point is at least 5,000 degrees. It's already very difficult for mining ships to vaporize it. Its hardness and melting point are far higher than those of all metals on your Earth. If you use it to build cars, they would be even more solid than your tanks!"

  "Oh, so that's how powerful it is! Why don't we use qingjin to make our cars this time? I see the qingjin machinery on Mars has been running for thousands of years without breaking down. If our cars can run for a thousand years, that would be awesome!" Lei Yang said with a flight of fancy.

  Xing Brain said: "No problem, anyway those robots I've all made, even if it's building houses, making cars, or generating electricity, they're all done by robots, and I don't need to exert myself."

  "Is that house so big that even robots can build it? Or did you have a large number of robot workers holding iron trowels and tile knives, laying bricks and applying mortar?"

  "Nonsense! I'm the most powerful spaceship in the universe, how can I create such a lowly robot? Forget it, I don't feel like explaining, go take a look yourself."

  Liyang's mind turned and he drove the mining ship to the midst of the mountain range where the Li family smelting was located.

  "Wow, what a huge machine! Good heavens, can this still be considered a robot? It's like a massive mountain of steel!" Li Yang was stunned by the scene before him.

  All that can be seen is a large mechanical device, over ten meters high, slowly moving on the ground. Behind it, a large factory building, about thirty meters wide and twelve meters high, is rapidly taking shape!

  This machine made Li Yang exclaim that apart from being huge, it was still huge! The entire machine resembled a giant crane at a dock, and also like a gigantic robot in a science fiction world.

  He thought of the Atlas robot in science fiction movies, probably about this appearance!

  Although it doesn't move fast, about one centimeter per second, the factory building left behind is too huge, making people feel shocked. Li Yang stared at it without blinking, and it seemed that it had been busy on this building for a long time. In just over ten minutes, this modern factory was built!
