A Big Business!

Ultimately, technology needed to reform and progress.

These theoretical things must be known to everyone, researched and developed by many, to constantly expand the boundaries of theoretical knowledge.

Through this, theory would develop, and technology could also develop.

This kind of thing could be kept secret to a certain extent from other civilizations, but for internal scientists, it was fundamentally impossible to keep secret.

Ultimately, there were too many overlapping disciplines; keeping secrets would make it impossible to expand actual research work.

With the massive amount of basic disciplinary knowledge transported from the Tianjing Empire, Earth's technology entered a fast track of development.

And the younger generation influenced by this cutting-edge knowledge grew in intelligence far beyond their predecessors.

This caused Earth's technology to constantly leap forward, and everyone's capabilities were immensely elevated compared to before.

Earth's spaceships were already capable of flying at near-light speeds, reaching one-third of the speed of light, and!

The next generation of spaceships, capable of traversing star systems via Warp Drives, was already under research!

Earth's technology was changing at a frantic pace, frantically approaching a new future.

Guo Hao learned about Earth's situation from Kassin.

He was extremely pleased in his heart; with things developing so well, his efforts had not been in vain.

"Alright, you may go down. Pay attention to staying hidden."

Guo Hao said quietly to Kassin.

"Yes! Master!"

Kassin left.

Guo Hao sat in his seat, a hesitant look appearing in his eyes.

Currently, Earth's development had entered the main track.

Various materials were also continuously being transported to Earth. As long as he remained in this position, Earth's path would remain rock-solid.

But he couldn't sit in this position forever! He still wanted to return to Earth.

What should be done then?

Earth needed to establish its own large-scale resource mining sites.

He investigated the internal documents of the Tianjing Empire.

Many precious materials were usually produced in certain special regions of the universe, and these things were only rare within the star systems.

These materials were not rare at all within the Star Abyss, where there were numerous mineral veins.

The three major civilizations did not lack these materials, partly because they themselves controlled the vast majority of regions in the universe and could mine within their star systems.

But this kind of material within the star systems was truly scarce. If that was their only channel, they would likely ban the trade of these materials and would never sell them to the outside.

The large-scale production of these rare mineral materials actually took place in the Star Abyss!

This was a fact Guo Hao had seen in a certain document of the Tianjing Empire!

The Star Abyss could produce a massive amount of rare minerals, which were not only easy to mine but also highly concentrated.

Mineral veins floated inside the Star Abyss like celestial bodies.

Of course, in the Star Abyss, there were almost no celestial bodies, and very few floating objects, but almost all floating objects were good things.

But!

The places where these good things were located were usually also good things for Star Beasts.

Therefore, these mineral veins floating in the Star Abyss were usually occupied by Star Beasts, becoming their nests.

To obtain these mineral veins, one first had to kill these Star Beasts before they could seize the veins!

But once successful, the wealth and benefits obtained were practically incalculable!

Precisely because of this, the three major civilizations were almost all doing this, sending expedition teams to explore the Star Abyss.

They would find similar floating mineral veins, then use certain technological means to lure them as close as possible to the border between the Star Abyss and the star systems.

Then, the expedition team would enter the star system, quickly mobilizing the military hidden around the star system to surround and wipe out the Star Beasts on the floating mineral veins, and then seize the veins!

Relying on this method, the three major civilizations plundered countless wealth—wealth that was hard to calculate in numbers, things that minor civilizations simply couldn't imagine.

And precisely because of this, they had always maintained an absolute advantage. Their advantage in wealth was also extremely terrifying!

Guo Hao closed the description on the computer screen, a gleam flashing in his eyes.

Earth directly contacting alien civilizations wasn't very realistic.

However, would going deep into the Star Abyss work?

Obtaining a large amount of materials from the Star Abyss to directly construct Earth's own Violet Star, and even building a few more to distribute around the Solar System as protective barriers and residential areas for the citizens.

If they could achieve this, Earth could truly be said to be rock-solid.

After all, possessing just one Violet Star of the Red Sea Space Bandits had already given the three major civilizations a headache.

If Earth possessed several and had its own massive force, even if the three major civilizations wanted to deal with them, they would certainly have nowhere to start.

After all, no civilization was willing to fight to the death with others, only to let someone else take advantage. Civilizations were not fools.

They would weigh the pros and cons!

Thinking of this, Guo Hao felt that his idea was actually quite feasible!

However, the problem was how to enter the Star Abyss, and then the technology to construct a Violet Star!

These two problems were extremely difficult to solve!

But they were also the two most critical problems!

Without a way to enter the Star Abyss, it was impossible to obtain enough materials to construct a Violet Star.

Relying solely on the current smuggling situation, even if the merchant fleet expanded ten times in scale and transported materials to Earth with all its might, without several hundred or even thousands of years, it was absolutely impossible to gather enough materials for a single Violet Star.

But doing so would be too large in scale; others were not fools and would soon discover it, making it practically meaningless.

And without obtaining the construction blueprints for a Violet Star, it was like trying to make bricks without straw.

No need to think further.

Troublesome!

Guo Hao frowned and thought carefully for a long time, hesitation in his eyes.

This matter was truly troublesome, extremely troublesome!

Because these were all highly classified things.

Not easy to obtain!

Guo Hao sighed softly.

Just as Guo Hao was sighing.

"Director! Director!"

Ke Yu entered the office excitedly, shouting to Guo Hao.

"A big deal! Director!"

"What?"

Guo Hao raised his head, frowning as he looked at Ke Yu.

"What big deal?"

"A member of the Royal Family found me, saying they want to commission you to research something. They can offer a research budget of up to ten billion, and the personal reward will be given to you. If you can solve this problem, they can offer up to three billion Galaxy Coins as compensation!"

Ke Yu was extremely excited.

This was truly a massive deal.

A scientific research budget of ten billion was already a top-tier project. Unless it was a large multi-person project, a personal project's maximum was only at the ten-billion level.

"Where is the person?"

Guo Hao looked at Ke Yu curiously.

"Come in quickly!"

Ke Yu shouted toward the door.

Not long after, Guo Hao saw a familiar face and spoke in surprise.

"It's you?!"
