The existing STCs of the human empires were incomplete. They were defective products obtained by the Machinery Faith through excavation of ruins. There were only some blueprint data left inside.
STC had brought convenience to humans, but it had also caused them to lose hope. To humans, this was ironic.
In the current human empire, most of the technological knowledge had been lost. People knew nothing about technology and could only use STC to manufacture.
This led to a very strange style of human civilization. There were warships that were several kilometers long and could travel in space, but civilian technology was very backward. Many worlds seemed to live in the middle ages, and the architectural style was very dark.
For example, on Planet Darwin, each nest looked like an enlarged castle. The spire-like buildings were next to each other and surrounded by high walls.
The color of the building was also dark. The material of the building looked very much like ordinary stone, but it was actually a kind of metal mixed material. There was no civilized color at all, and the architectural style was far from beautiful.
On the surface, it looked backward, but in reality, it contained technological knowledge that many alien civilizations could not understand.
Even an ordinary construction material was no less than a priceless treasure to some alien civilizations that had yet to leave their mother planet. It could allow their civilization to instantly advance by several levels, greatly reducing the time needed to enter space.
As a software engineer, Li Meng had participated in the manufacturing of the latest model of the " STC " sample. He could perfectly retrieve all the knowledge and memories he had from his brain.
Creating a perfect " STC " wasn't a technical problem for Li Meng. The only thing he lacked was time.
With the STC, the heavy industry on Planet Darwin could be developed. With heavy industry, the economy would grow rapidly. With money, they could strengthen the army and even strengthen the defense system of the Ananda Star System.
Although the Empire's laws prohibited the planetary governors from owning a space fleet that could sail far away, that was when the Tara government was still powerful. Now that the Empire was declining, the Imperial Senate urgently hoped that each world could have a military force that could protect themselves. Although the Empire's territory was vast and boundless, the Empire's laws were also unquestionable, but whether they were enforced or not was another matter.
"It's decided then…"
Li Meng thought to himself with a thoughtful expression.
After eliminating the Nagou cult, he would spend some time to create a " smart AI ". Then, he would develop heavy industry while finding a sufficiently powerful backer.
If Planet Darwin developed too quickly and the heavy industry was too advanced, the Machinery Faith would definitely come looking for him. If he didn't have a powerful backer, he would be finished if the Machinery Faith labeled him as a " rebel."
However, who should he look for to back him up?
This was a difficult problem, Li Meng suddenly realized.
The Ananda Star System was too remote. Even if he wanted to pay a tithe to the Orthodoxy, the Orthodoxy would not be interested in the Ananda Star System.
Bribe the higher-ups of the Imperial Navy?
That wouldn't do either. Ninety percent of the dynasty's warships were built by the Machinery Faith. The maintenance and repair of the warships had to rely on the Machinery Faith. The dynasty's navy naturally wouldn't offend the Machinery Faith for a small planetary governor.
Any forging world had a high status in the Empire. Even the Empire's Council of Elders did not dare to offend the Machinery Faith. After all, the Machinery Faith was an ally of the Human Empire, not a subordinate.
Li Meng suddenly realized that if this enemy was the Machinery Faith, he wouldn't be able to find a strong enough backer.
What should he do?
In the darkness, Li Meng quickly thought.
"Oh right…"
Li Meng's eyes lit up as he thought of an idea.
He was not an ordinary person. He was stronger than psionics, and his mastery of psionic power had already reached perfection.
He knew everything about flames, psionic shields, and shockwaves. He also knew more powerful skills, such as stopping time in a certain area and causing everything to fall into a state of stillness.
Li Meng also knew the skill that could set people ablaze at a glance. However, this skill was useful for ordinary people, but it was useless for slightly stronger Psionites. It also consumed a lot of energy.
Psionic power came from subspace, and it could form similar attacks according to the imagination of psionics. Because of this characteristic, psionic power was also known as " psychic power ".
Powerful psionics could even directly control a person's mind and body, detonating the core of a planet in an instant and setting the planet's atmosphere ablaze with a thought.
Of course, the more powerful a psionic was, the more dangerous it would be when using psionic power. The projection in the subspace would burn like a flame, and countless demons would swarm over to disturb their minds. If they were not careful, they would fall into eternal damnation.
It was also one of the reasons why the Empire was so harsh on psionics. The more powerful a psionic was, the more dangerous it was, and the easier it was for them to lose control. Once they lost control, they themselves would be a moving dimensional rift, a catastrophe for any world. Countless demons would rush out of the dimensional rift and slaughter all living beings, sacrificing souls to keep the dimensional rift alive. Countless souls would be sucked into the dimensional rift, and the feast would last until the last living being was killed.
