"You refused to join me to wait for me to grow, and I'll simply show you how advantageous it is to join me earlier than late…"
Hye knew his place was going to be watched by others. They couldn't see through the defensive layer of the shield, and that was why he asked Lily to send the newly formed fleets outside, roaming and showing off their powers.
He stressed selecting the most famous figures from the races to join his side. It wouldn't serve any good if he just selected random folks that others wouldn't recognise.
The newly joined races added a nice number to his people here. Tens of billions of people from different races joined, and his capable friends took charge of relocating them.
The planets he already built were now filled with many people and had tons of cities and towns getting built. Hye instructed them to mimic the advanced setting of the world he once visited before coming here.
He wanted a dense layer of cities on the ground, connected with roads and portals, and also floating cities as well. His friends took his words much simpler than what he initially intended and just focused on building the ground cities and towns.
As for the floating cities, they knew it was built over a sophisticated and advanced tech, one they didn't have yet. So it was expected they weren't able to mimic that, not even try to do anything like it.
He didn't like that! He wanted to build something so advanced like the way he saw before. So he asked old Gan again, and the old man couldn't help but sweat when he heard what Hye wanted from him.
[I know you think of me as your wish maker, but I am not that type of person…] Old Gan kept speaking for almost ten minutes, explaining how he and his department got overloaded with tons of tasks recently.
[I know you are doing too much, but you need to do such a thing. You rested for twenty years, and it's time to just rise up and do magic things, right? Don't tell me you aren't excited about this…]
Yet Hye didn't give him the easy way out. He kept speaking for almost half an hour, and by the end of their long discussion that lasted for two hours, old Gan finally resigned to his fate.
[Fine, I'll form a civilian department, one that'll work over innovating things for civilians] This was the end conclusion of all this. Old Gan's main point was that he and his team were mostly experienced in dealing with military stuff, not civilian-type things.
And yet Hye persisted in his demands. He didn't hate how simple life was on Earth, but he aspired for something new. The scenes he witnessed in the world he visited looked as if they came from a sci-fi movie or something. Not to mention many races who declined to join had bits and pieces of such advanced tech in their worlds.
If he couldn't do it, he'd lose something important to impress them. He needed to show to all that he was the future, and he was able to provide enough quality of life to make them join his side.
[Don't expect anything anytime soon, so don't set your hopes high…]
[I'll keep pestering you about this, about other stuff, don't expect anything less than that from me] Hye knew what the old Gan really wanted, and couldn't help but laugh while messaging him these words.
Old Gan didn't like it of course, but he did nothing in his power to stop Hye from bugging him. The latter then checked on the current updates of the ongoing building processes in his area, the situation of the newly joined races, and then the updates of mining crystals.
He entrusted this task to Angelica, and she was doing a great job already with everyone. They resumed the old mining spots running, using the machines they all found when they came here.
On top of that, the research department managed in the past few months to replicate and even upgrade a few of these machines. And that added a huge stock of them, enabling her team to work over and expand the current mining sites by three times. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
According to her, the crystal mines were rich in this area. The space Hye controlled was already vast enough to contain tons of meteorites and planets, all were rich with crystals and other rare minerals.
The mining process started to run on full cylinders two months ago. And according to the news, they were producing one million crystals per week. It wasn't the best result yet, but it was better than nothing.
Hye didn't plan to take these and plant them in his Crystal Heart. He got tons of crystals planted as trees there and didn't lack any crystals for now.
Yet he knew if he openly supplied these crystals to his current population, crystals wouldn't suffice, not even close enough to satisfy the needs of one percent of his population.
"We just need time," he looked outside, towards the vast space, "and we need to find other ways to get people…"
He had already spoken with one of the big impact executives, but that man still didn't reply to him. Hye thought he figured things out and was on the right track when he got a message from that dude. But then, he got nothing back.
He tried twice to contact him but got nothing in response. He didn't know what went wrong out there, but he had no other way but to wait.
"Did I give him the wrong deal or what?" as he sat down on his throne in the big flagship he boarded and used as his main palance now, he couldn't help but recall that discussion with that man.
He thought he had him in his pocket back then. Yet it seemed things went out of what he expected, and he couldn't believe this was related to the offer he made back then.
