Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 377

Chapter 376, Black Box Factory

months have passed since the outbreak of the Korojia incident, and Gu Hang has never returned to the Wrathful Star, let alone the Black Arrow Star.

He basically heard about the situation of these two worlds from the reports of government officials.

Although Korojia has great potential and is a target for development, his base in his heart is still on the Wrathful Star.

And he has to take back the dozens of black boxes drawn in this wave of technology lottery.

The shipyard is also very important in his heart, and he has to go back and keep an eye on it personally.

Now that the situation in Korojia has stabilized, the reform is on the right track, and so many things have accumulated, it’s time to go back.

Ten more colleges were bought in Korojia, most of which were placed in Mingyan City, and the other three were placed in three other nests that have already started the initial stage of reform.

After doing this last thing, he boarded the ship back to the Wrathful Star.

…

Wu Jiarong was already numb.

Although she knew that if the Governor-General found her specifically and wanted to go to the secret research institute, it was to show her something big.

After the governor landed, he returned to the Governor’s Mansion in Fuxing City to handle official business for a few days, met with a group of officials from various places, and then prepared to inspect the Weixing City Industrial Center and clearly informed her that he would come to the institute. She had already prepared herself mentally.

However, when she and Patel, the head of the industrial center, accompanied the governor to inspect for a day, the governor came to her secret institute late at night.

A spare underground space had been cleared out long ago, but after the governor looked around, he said:

“Not enough.”

What is not enough?

How many black boxes do you have! Even

if there are a hundred, this space can also hold them!

Of course, she didn’t dare to say it, she could only beep in her heart, and then with a bitter face, she said to the governor: “This is already the largest library that can be used at present. The larger library is still being excavated. If it doesn’t work, we can only use a few small libraries next to it and try to open it up…”

Gu Hang touched his chin and followed Wu Jiarong to see the other so-called small libraries that have not been used.

He was a little disappointed.

They are not enough.

However, he also knew that Wu Jiarong could not be blamed for not doing her best.

This place, located in the suburbs surrounding Weixing City, is a research institute on the surface, but the most important main area is the underground part, where all the black boxes of technology rewards that Gu Hang has exchanged from the beginning to now are placed.

These black boxes are all in use, and those that produce finished products and industrial lines are working according to the needs of the alliance.

This means that the utilization rate of the entire space must be particularly high. Black boxes cannot be simply stacked up. Although they can work fully mobile inside, the feeding and unloading of materials require external design guidance and excellent assembly line design.

At present, although there are not as many as a hundred black boxes that Gu Hang wants to take out, there are still about fifty of them – he had a total of thirty draws before, minus less than five draws, and the remaining technologies are basically finished products and mother machines, two black boxes.

However, although the number is not so exaggerated, the volume of some black boxes is particularly large.

For example, the manufacturing technology of several starships.

Of course, the finished products and mother machines are not input materials, and a complete ship is directly pulled out. That is impossible.

The main thing is to produce some modular key components according to the design requirements. If you really want to produce all of them, that’s fine. But for example, it’s a bit too stupid to use black boxes to produce some armor plates. It’s unnecessary.

Later, the black boxes should produce the key modular parts, or the mother machine should produce the production line of these modular parts, complete the production on the ground, and then send them into space; in space, the shipyard in the star port will build the hull according to the technical requirements, and then these key parts will be assembled into the ship in the shipyard.

But no matter what, even if it is just the modular output of core components, as long as it is used on the starship, it will not be small.

Although the underground space of the institute has been made as large as possible, it has almost touched the ceiling when producing the parts of the traveler, not to mention the much larger parts of the starship.

It is normal that Wu Jiarong did not consider this in advance.

Moreover, as the number of black boxes deployed in the institute increases and the scale becomes larger, this problem will become more serious in the future.

Not to mention the space problem, with such a large space, so many raw materials need to be imported every day, and so many products are output, the confidentiality work will become more and more difficult.

We have to think of other plans.

The first thought in Gu Hang’s mind was to build a special space city or star fortress in space to house these secrets that cannot be told.

There are many advantages in space. There is no need to worry about someone accidentally entering, the defense can be strict enough, the space is definitely large enough, and even transportation will become more convenient than on the surface as the number of starships of the alliance increases.

But he quickly rejected this idea himself.

It’s too eye-catching.

Conventional confidentiality is easy to do, and star fortresses can be designed to be difficult to infiltrate; but confidentiality will also become extremely difficult to do, especially when there are legitimate procedures and requirements to enter and check, things will become very difficult.

Another point is that it is not safe to put it in space.

This unsafe means that if it really suffers a space attack, it will be difficult for the alliance to provide support even if it wants to, especially under the premise that the current alliance’s naval power is not strong enough.

While rejecting the idea of placing the new “black box factory” in space, Gu Hang also thought of a more ideal place.

Although there is a little risk, it is indeed the best choice.

Moreover, he has actually been preparing for this.

Gu Hang patted Wu Jiarong’s shoulder, who was frowning, and said, “Don’t think about it anymore. Transfer all the personnel to the surface. I will handle the things below myself.”

Wu Jiarong was a little surprised.

But from her long experience, she has learned not to ask questions that she shouldn’t ask.

She finally just nodded obediently, and then, according to the governor’s order, she began to transfer all the personnel in the underground space, and all the black boxes were temporarily stopped.

Most of the people active in the institute are servitors who have undergone brain surgery. Their reactions after hearing the order are very flat.

The very few researchers who have been absorbed into the institute have all undergone the most rigorous loyalty assessment and training. They will not reveal secrets and fully understand the importance of obeying orders.

After everyone left the underground space, Gu Hang could start his work.

His mind ascended to the subspace, to the Kingdom of Storms.

Here, countless heroes saluted Gu Hang in the air.

After returning the salute, he went to his destination.

It was a “factory” built in the Kingdom of Storms.

It covered a large area, but it was actually just an empty shell.

A large number of heroes worked in it and continued to expand the factory.

And this was the new place that Gu Hang prepared for his black box factory.

His psychic power rapidly unfolded from his heart, and a subspace rift appeared in the factory. At the same time, it was connected to the real world, the underground of the secret research institute of the alliance.

Then, everything in the underground space was swallowed up by this subspace rift.

Gu Hang smiled.

That should be enough.

The black box factory that was “swallowed” into the Kingdom of Storm God was completely maintained as it was. Not only the black boxes were swallowed, but also the supporting facilities that Wu Jiarong had built around these black boxes over the years. The semi-automatic equipment for discharging and feeding materials was also intact. As long as manpower was invested, it could be immediately reactivated.

In terms of manpower, there was no need to use servitors.

The heroes in the Kingdom of Storm God would be more useful than servitors. They were the Alliance warriors who had sacrificed on the battlefield in the past. Their loyalty was unquestionable; their existence was also completely dependent on Gu Hang’s power.

Of course, the raw materials needed for the black box factory needed to be transported in from the real world; the things produced also needed to be transported to the outside world.

But there is no need to worry too much about this, Gu Hang has already had an idea.

In the underground space of the secret research institute in the real world, the power of the Kingdom of Storms has not declined. Instead, with the power of Gu Hang, it has further merged with this land.

Gu Hang processed this area of the real world into a superposition state of the subspace and the real world.

Just like the situation of Fino City on Korojia, but Gu Hang wants to do this on the Angry Owl Star, which is much more convenient than Gowaga. The Kingdom of Storms was originally born on this land, and on the Angry Owl Star, the reality curtain is relatively thin, which provides an objective basis for more conveniently connecting the subspace and the real world.

And more importantly, Gu Hang, the “evil god”, is in the real world. Not only can he control the essence of the subspace and mobilize the power of the Kingdom of Storms at will, he is also a human being who can exist stably in reality.

With himself as the anchor point, connecting the two places, the convenience is maximized.

However, at this point, it is not completely completed.

The superposition of the subspace and the real world is not a stable state. If it is left alone for a long time, it will either disappear or expand rapidly and uncontrollably, which does not meet Gu Hang’s requirements.

He also needs to use his own power to stabilize this place.

Gu Hang worked hard for half a day for this.

…

Half a day later, Wu Jiarong got Gu Hang’s permission and returned to the underground black box factory she built.

She came here with great expectations. The Governor’s move must be extraordinary.

But when she just came in, at first glance, it seemed that nothing had changed. All the layouts were almost exactly the same as when she left.

She was a little disappointed and thought that the Governor had something… huh?

No.

The space is wrong. It couldn’t have been so big here!

The underground space of the secret research institute only had a few black boxes at the beginning. Later, as the demand continued to expand, multiple underground warehouses were developed. However, even the largest one built later was not as big as it is now.

Almost all the black boxes were gathered together.

Looking at it again, it was still wrong, and the number was not right.

Not only did the black boxes not decrease, but they became a lot more!

Wu Jiarong couldn’t help but look at the Governor.

Gu Hang smiled and said, “Now you don’t have to worry about the space problem. The space here is almost endless.”

Wu Jiarong didn’t ask the Governor how he did it. She was just shocked by it.

She had realized that this was not a “technology” but a great power.

Then, she saw many “people” composed of blue light appearing here. They were neat and disciplined.

The leader seemed to be wearing the uniform of the Alliance and had the rank of colonel.

“Governor! The Heroic Spirit Corps-Production Team is in place. Please give instructions!”

Gu Hang returned the greeting and said, “Colonel Drake, this is Ms. Wu Jiarong, the head of the Alliance’s secret research institute. Next, she will become the leader of the production team. You need to cooperate with her work to ensure that the Alliance’s secret factory can be put into production smoothly.”

Wu Jiarong hesitated, but under the encouraging eyes of the Governor, she stepped forward and shook hands with Colonel Drake.

A flash of thought flashed in her mind, and she seemed to have heard of Drake’s name.

Isn’t this the first commander of the 31st Airborne Division of the Alliance Army? Didn’t he die on the battlefield to recapture the Far North Industrial City during the War of Unification of the Wrathful Star?

How did he become a Heroic Spirit? What about

those other Heroic Spirits…

Wu Jiarong looked at Gu Hang again, and at this moment, she was only shocked.

Human warriors who died on the battlefield returned to the Golden Throne… This has always been the slogan of the state religion. Even in the Mechanicus, there is a similar saying that the destination of all things is the God of All Machines.

The Heroic Spirit who returned to the Golden Throne appeared next to Governor Gu?

This…

Wu Jiarong was completely stunned. She walked forward in a daze and shook hands with Colonel Drake carefully.

There was a real touch on her hand.

Gu Hang smiled and said, “I believe you will cooperate well in the future.”

…

After taking Wu Jiarong to see the newly renovated underground space, Gu Hang asked Drake to continue his task.

The entire factory, under the control of the Heroic Spirits, has begun to operate.

The next mode is also relatively simple.

In the real world, a special transport fleet with a high level of confidentiality will bring in raw materials and take away finished products, and send them to various places in need in different categories.

The servitors will be responsible for delivering the raw materials to the designated location in the underground space, and transporting the finished products from the designated location to the surface, waiting for the convoy to transport them. This so-called designated location is already a superposition state of the subspace. But from now on, the servitors will no longer see the black box factory with their own eyes.

Then, the heroes will be responsible for using these materials, putting them on the semi-automated assembly line, sending them into the black box, and taking the black box products out of the assembly line and sending them to the designated location, waiting for the servitors to transport them.

Gu Hang not only solved the problem of insufficient space in the black box factory, but also maximized confidentiality.

People without permission cannot enter the black box working area at all. This is not only a problem of security level, but also an active identification of the power of the subspace. Those without permission will be punished by thunder the moment they step in.

Moreover, due to the distortion of time and space in the Kingdom of Storm God, there is more than one place in this superposition state.
