Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 21: Consciousness Capacity (Three updates today, please follow me!)

At this stage, the total number of people under Li Qingsong's command has reached more than 1900.

These more than 1900 people are now scattered across the four bases owned by Li Qingsong, as well as dozens of factories and facilities. They work day and night, striving to push Li Qingsong's overall technological level to continue to rise.

But this number of people is still too few.

Li Qingsong made up his mind and invested a large amount of resources into this new clone breeding factory. It took several months to finally build it.

At this moment, the factory, which is also located in a fully enclosed factory building in the canyon, has been completed.

It has five floors. The first floor is the equipment room and operation room, and the remaining four floors are all culture tank workshops.

There are 500 culture tanks on each floor, and there are a total of 2000 culture tanks on four floors.

At present, Li Qingsong has less than 2000 people under his command. But now, this clone factory can produce 2000 clones every six months, directly doubling the number of people under Li Qingsong's command!
Full of anticipation, a clone came to the breeding factory under the control of Li Qingsong.

What came into view was a hall painted almost entirely in cold white tones. Inside, machines and equipment were placed one after another, continuously supplying the necessary electricity and nutrients to the culture tanks.

The air in the hall was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant, and every place was spotless and extremely clean.

The clone brought a small box. When it was opened, it contained 2000 tiny glass tubes.

Each glass tube contains a set of embryonic cells that have been processed by the highly technological cell induction equipment and gene editing equipment on the Deep Space Spacecraft.

This was a delicate task. To prepare these 2000 embryonic cells, Li Qingsong had to transfer ten more clones to the spacecraft to prepare the embryonic cells before the cloning factory was completed.

Now, these embryonic cells are placed one by one into 2000 culture tanks.

Half a year passed quietly. At some point, the clones emptied the nutrient solution in the culture tanks and carried the newly born clones one by one to the lounge.

New culture medium was then poured into the culture tank, and embryonic cells were placed in, and a new round of growth and development began again.

At this moment, Li Qingsong's attention was not on the culture tanks, but most of it was on the newly born clones.

The first clone opened his eyes. Then the second, the third...

Until all 2000 clones in the lounge opened their eyes.

Li Qingsong's consciousness instantly extended. The next moment, he suddenly felt his consciousness "expand" again, gaining higher brain-related abilities such as information processing, memory, and learning.

Even some problems that had accumulated through the labor of the clones and had not had time to be processed and thought about were answered in an instant at this moment with the addition of up to 2000 new brains!

For example, the planning drawings of the heat-resistant steel plant that Li Qingsong plans to build, the railway line planning plans for the two newly added bases, the construction plan for the new crane, and so on.

Of course, increasing the brain can only solve "quantity" of problems, not "quality".

Just like the blueprints for a steel mill, given enough time, the existing clones could have built it. The addition of a new brain simply increased the speed and shortened the time.

Some problems cannot be solved with the current level of technology, and even if there are 2000 more brains, they cannot be solved.

But even so, this is enough for Li Qingsong to be satisfied with.

Don’t forget, with 2000 more brains, your own learning and research abilities also increase by the share of 2000 more brains.

If you encounter skills and knowledge that you don’t have, you can learn them or research them on your own.

With so many brains, there was no limit to what he could learn. But at the same time, these 2000 newly added brains also gave Li Qingsong a feeling he had never experienced before.

It was like an empty car suddenly had a heavy steel plate placed on it, and the weight was immediately felt.

The load-carrying capacity of a vehicle is limited.

Carefully experiencing this feeling, Li Qingsong felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart.

"Although I don't know where this ability of mine comes from or what principle it's based on, it seems that the number of brains my consciousness can connect to simultaneously is limited, not unlimited as I previously thought.

This could be considered as a limited 'capacity of consciousness.'"

I didn't feel it before, maybe it's because the number of clones under my command is too small and the number of connections is too small.

It's like a cart pulling only a little cotton, with no feeling of weight at all.

But at this moment, 2000 brains suddenly connected at once, just like a steel plate was suddenly placed in the truck bed, and the upper limit could be felt.

But at this moment, Li Qingsong could only vaguely feel that this upper limit existed, but he had no way of feeling its specific value.

It seems that it is still early to reach the upper limit.

"In that case, let's just ignore it for now."

Li Qingsong made up his mind: "I'll wait until I feel the capacity limit. By then, I might have enough population and technology to find a way to increase the capacity."

Putting this issue aside for the moment, Li Qingsong controlled the 2000 newly added clones to leave the breeding center.

Next door, dormitories had already been built for them. Furthermore, 2000 sets of food, water, daily necessities, clothing, and space suits had also been prepared.

Even 2000 new jobs have been prepared.

After just one day of adaptive training, the 2000 clones immediately got to work.

Time flies by, and the development of the Luoshen base is changing with each passing day.

In just four years, the scale of the Luoshen base has expanded more than tenfold.

On Luoshen Star, the total length of the railway lines laid by Li Qingsong soared to more than 2000 kilometers, connecting more than 200 branch bases and mining centers in total.

Every day, hundreds of heavy-loaded trains run across the cold and silent land of Luoshen Star, transporting tens of thousands of tons of various minerals to this canyon.

In the industrial base, Li Qingsong built 10 steel mills alone, and the daily steel output increased dramatically to more than tons.

In addition, the number of various machinery factories, foundries, chemical plants, agricultural bases, etc. has also skyrocketed.

The total number of people under his command also exceeded 20156 for the first time, with clones!

But at this moment, Li Qingsong finally clearly felt the upper limit of his consciousness capacity.

I'm afraid that if I connect a thousand more brains at most, my consciousness capacity will be full and I won't be able to connect to new clones.

　One more chapter will be added today, and there will still be two chapters at 12 noon.
