Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 146: Develop First, Repair Later

At this moment, Li Qingsong truly made up his mind.

The Bluetuk people were rapidly recovering their strength thanks to the supplies from Venus. Once their strength returned to its peak and they had sufficient logistical supplies, their combat power would surge.

At this stage, time is on the Bluetuk people's side, not on ours! When the Bluetuk people recover their strength, they will definitely not just cling to Venus like they do now. They will definitely attack from all sides and take away the planets one by one.

By then, it will truly be the end for me who does not yet have the ability to travel between stars.

There is no escape, no way to go up to heaven, no door to enter the earth!
I must complete this task as quickly as possible.

At this moment, the industrial spacecraft that was originally located near the earth and was originally intended to carry out spacecraft maintenance, resource transportation, etc., became Li Qingsong's first batch of spacecraft allocated to rush into the earth's atmosphere and reach the surface, starting the first phase of the construction mission.

Choose a site, level the foundation, and build a factory!

The second batch of industrial facilities will be transported in large quantities to the Earth from the Jupiter base with the strongest industrial strength, riding on heavy transport spacecraft or aerospace motherships.

It is obviously unrealistic to transport 10 trillion tons of water from the surface to space by relying on spacecraft to transport it back and forth.

The only way to achieve this goal is through space elevator technology.

Only a space elevator can accomplish this amount of transportation!
Moreover, just one, two, three or four space elevators are simply not enough.

Li Qingsong plans to build 1000 space elevators at the Earth's equator!
Li Qingsong's ultimate goal is to transport 10 trillion tons of water from the surface to space within 10 years - no longer than that, if it takes longer, the Bluetuk people will probably recover their strength.

By this calculation, a space elevator would have to have a transportation capacity of 10 billion tons per year.

But taking into account the construction time of the space elevator, this number will need to be increased to about 12 billion tons.

In this case, one space elevator would transport about 330 million tons per day on average, and about 14 tons per hour!

When Li Qingsong built the first space elevator on Ganymede, the space elevator was operating at full capacity and could only transport about 14 tons of materials on average per day.

Moreover, Ganymede is much smaller than the Earth, so the construction of a space elevator is much easier.

Now, Li Qingsong has to face a higher construction difficulty on Earth, to build a thousand space elevators with a transport capacity more than 20 times that of Ganymede!

In the past, this level of difficulty was simply unthinkable, and Li Qingsong would never have been able to do it even if he was beaten to death.

But now, with the continuous advancement of technology and breakthroughs in technical difficulties, Li Qingsong has enough confidence to do this.

As a result, almost all the clones stored in hibernation on Earth were awakened. Li Qingsong's consciousness links were transferred here in large quantities, and he immediately started working by controlling these clones.

Even the ground supercomputer originally used to run Wukong AI has been diverted since there are no wars around the earth.

Wukong AI stops operating and Shengong AI takes over.

Moreover, the existing 1000 supercomputers are not enough.

Li Qingsong also wants to build more than 5000 large supercomputers. Only in this way can Shengong AI have sufficient computing power and unleash its industrial capabilities.

Li Qingsong, facing the Earth he had cherished and protected for centuries, was now determined to act decisively. Countless rivers were directly dammed, and large amounts of water flowed directly into factories for industrial use.

The grassland with lush grass, flowers everywhere, and cattle and sheep grazing leisurely was brutally flattened by Li Qingsong operating a bulldozer.

The rumbling of artillery roared from the mountains, which were covered like a green blanket. Amidst the smoke and dust, a large amount of rock collapsed, countless birds and beasts fled in terror, and the forest disappeared. The entire mountain range was transformed into a mine for Li Qingsong to mine.

Environmental protection? For now, let’s not worry about it. Let’s develop first and then repair!

Under this desperate development method, countless pieces of land were turned from rugged to flat, and factories appeared rapidly.

Often, what was a lush primeval jungle yesterday was replaced by a huge cluster of factories in just two or three days.

The extensive railway lines spread across the land like a flood, building roads through mountains and bridges over rivers, quickly connecting mines and factories, and the trains began to roar.

On the vast ocean, giant cargo ships travel thousands of miles, transporting countless supplies to where they are needed.

In addition to the military clones that maintain the necessary pressure on Venus, Li Qingsong has put almost all his energy into the development of the Earth while taking advantage of the temporary truce.

With sufficient supercomputing support, the divine AI unleashed its might. In each control base, clones sat in silence, rapidly manipulating the computers before them, issuing one command after another.

To the clones, this was just a command. But after being manipulated by the divine AI, it meant the collapse of a mountain, the extension of a railway line for thousands of miles, the disappearance of a forest, and the cessation of a river!

In just six months, hundreds of thousands of factories appeared on the earth. In just six months, the earth, once full of life, began to become dead and devastated.

The power of industry is fully demonstrated at this moment.

Half a year later, the construction of the first to the 100th space elevators began simultaneously.

A huge amount of fiber-0 was transported to the construction site, following a process similar to the previous construction of the space elevator. First, the first line was built, and then the line was thickened again based on this line.

The difference is that because Li Qingsong's engineering capabilities are now stronger, the construction of the space elevator can be faster.

When the construction of the current 100 space elevators is completed, all supercomputing bases, No. fiber factories, mines, railway lines, nuclear fission power plants and other basic factories will be ready.

So the construction of 101 space elevators, from the 1000st to the 900th, began again in parallel!
Although the first 100 space elevators have been completed, Li Qingsong did not start transporting water immediately.

The reason is simple. Once the transportation begins, the Bluetuk people will definitely understand what they want to do and will definitely send a fleet to attack.

But now, the construction has not been completed yet, and I am temporarily unable to free up my hands to deal with the attack.

Water cannot be transported for the time being, but other things can be transported first, which is a good opportunity to build the supporting facilities needed for water delivery in space first.

So, after all the space elevators are built, all the supporting facilities will also be completed.

It's time to start delivering water!
