Osborne Megacorp

Dr. Pym didn't know if he believed Harry's words, but judging from his reaction, he accepted using the Ant-Man suit to fight aliens.

But there's no need for his Ant-Man suit now.

Peter's shipboard AL transmitted back the location of Xandar and other data. Now, if Harry wants, he can also fly there with the ship.

There's no point in just flying there. You might also be captured by the Nova Legion, unless you bring a fleet that can cripple the Nova Legion.

Fist is the last word.

To accelerate development, the focus must be on extraterrestrial assets.

Although the status of the Osborne Group on Earth is already quite high, there are still many restrictions on the development of the Earth. As long as the Osborne Group is still mixed with the countries of the Earth Federation, it will inevitably be restrained by the United Nations. This is the "tradition" of the Earth. abided by law.

Letting Harry serve as a consultant to the UNSC is already a considerable concession. Although the Osborne Group actually has the conditions to compete with other countries, these are all tacit things.

If one day they covet Harry's skills and unite to impose sanctions, he will have to work hard to deal with it.

Now the countries of the Earth Alliance may be thinking about how to restrain the Osborne Group.

There are a lot of superheroes on the earth here. Some of them will give the official platform, and some may not, but no matter which side they are on, they will definitely not support Harry in the conflict between the Osborn Group and the officialdom.

Therefore, it is inevitable for the Osborne Group to directly explore outer space without terrestrial connections. The FTL engine is still just a legend on earth. It is somewhat stupid to sell this thing for money. It is comparable to Darren Cross selling Cross Particles. And it only sells for a few billion dollars.

Taking a rough inventory of extraterrestrial assets, Osborne has several assets: a factory complex in the asteroid belt of the solar system, half ownership of the Mayflower colony, and Kepler 22b. The distance between these bases is very far, but the entire company Resource allocation can be completed uniformly under the link of the psychic network.

In terms of logistics, the Cross Particles provided by Dr. Pym are cheaper and more abundant in supply. With Cross Particles combined with two FTL operation modes of warp speed and hyperspace navigation, the efficiency of interstellar logistics will be very high.

The development of Kepler 22b will be a long process. The ultimate goal is to transform this ocean planet into an ideal city full of industrial areas and urban agglomerations. The current development is still in the early stages.

The first thing to solve is the large swamps and strange alien flora and fauna near the landing site.

Even before landing, Harry knew that this was an ocean planet, so the colony ship had a lot of equipment for reclaiming swamps, and drones flew out of the colony ship.

They all carry reduced modular aqueducts, water pumping stations, and soil compressors. Controlled by high-precision satellites hovering in orbit and colonial shipboard AI, these drones can accurately locate their construction sites and then head towards them. Drop these shrunken devices at designated locations.

The equipment was restored in the air, and the construction of the huge drainage system was completed instantly. The machines rumbled and were unfolded and set up with the help of construction drones.

In the first stage, the machine needs to drain water to remove waterlogging. The excess water will be flocculated into the water pumps at each node, and then uniformly transported to low-lying areas to form reservoirs.

In the second stage, the modified engineering drone will deeply plow the soil and send the swamp soil to the soil compressor for processing, promoting the oxidation and maturation of the swamp soil.

While drones were carrying out project construction, scientific researchers moved outwards under the escort of the exploration team, using scientific research exoskeletons and various instruments to collect local plant samples along the way.

These data will be transmitted back to the colony ship AI. Through complete cataloging and classification, gene sequencing and the use of shipboard supercomputers to simulate the alien plant ecosystem, in conjunction with gene editing and propagation mechanisms, jar after jar of specially made selective defoliation The agent is produced in the spacecraft's production center.

After completing the construction, the aerial drone returns to the colony ship, loads Canary equipment and selective defoliants, and sprays the continent. In the end, only plant communities that meet the requirements of the colony will be left on the continent.

Plants are an important part of the ecosystem. The death of large tracts of plants makes animals uneasy and lose their cover. They start rioting uneasily.

The biological species here are not complicated. As an ocean planet, you can count the terrestrial species on one hand, and there are slightly more amphibians.

It is conceivable that the types of marine life must far exceed these two species, but it is not yet at the stage of developing the ocean.

The strength and speed of these animals far exceed those of creatures on earth, but they are ultimately no match for all kinds of modern weapons.

Under the cover of fighter planes, the riflemen and pilots of the Osborne Group massacred these alien monsters.

After destroying their original natural habitat and using drones to suppress them, there were soon no more living animals near the landing site.

These wild animals will be gradually driven to a specific area, and eventually controlled by various protective panels to build an alien zoo to enhance the biological research of the Osborn Group.

Now that Peter is missing, these alien zoos will be managed by the synthetic David, who just happens to sponsor his alien research.

Speaking of which, Harry found it a bit strange: alien creatures actually used DNA as the carrier of genetic information.

After the initial clearance, the landing site has been able to carry out construction. In addition to standardized housing, the first phase of the project will also build a super-large synthetic human manufacturing factory, a drone factory and a genetic clinic here.

These facilities will help synthetics and humans make individual adjustments to better observe the physical changes of the colonists and proactively make adaptive changes to their bodies.

The individual transformation of humans and synthetic humans is no longer a scientific issue, but a technical and engineering issue, which requires the investment of time and resources. In terms of resources, Harry has already provided enough, and all that is needed is time.

The drone factory will complete iteration and scale expansion under the research of engineers. Intelligent life forms on this planet will no longer need to participate in repetitive and heavy physical labor. This alone will be decades ahead of the United States.

Once the city reaches a certain scale, it will become the new planetary headquarters of the Osborne Group.

However, this is a barren galaxy after all, and a huge amount of resources still need to be transported from the solar system during the construction process. The value of the asteroid mining belt is still very high.

At the same time, the value of the Mars base is still not low. After all, it is the place where Harry first carried out climate recovery on the planet, and the data is very valuable.

Mars also has another important purpose: the Martian core has cooled down. Although it was bombarded twice by hydrogen bombs, the energy generated by the hydrogen bombs is not of the same order of magnitude as the energy required to activate the core.

This means that Mars has less geological activity and the temperature of the Martian mantle is low. At the same time, because there is no ocean on the surface of Mars, the difficulty of drilling is greatly reduced.

Harry is going to restart a drilling program on Mars that was once carried out on Earth:

Project Moho.
