I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

The resource conversion furnace at the bottom of the Sky is operating at full power.

But this is not enough.

Shen Tian turned his gaze to the belly of the giant ship, which was 30,000 meters long.

The heavy alloy gate was tightly closed, its surface covered with a layer of grayish-white dust.

This is the entrance to the first backup production line.

Inside the gate.

Shen Tian strode forward.

Solomon's mechanical clones followed closely behind.

The source floats in mid-air, guiding the way.

"Supreme Commander, the production area gates have been unlocked."

"The regional energy network is currently dormant. Should we reconnect to the main pipeline to restore energy supply to the entire region?"

"No need for now."

His voice was calm and steady.

Before confirming what exactly is hidden inside the Sky Dome, Shen Tian will not allow this steel behemoth to fully awaken.

"Turn on emergency lighting only."

Shen Tian gave the instructions.

"Let me check the actual damage first."

"Instruction received."

Nourishes—

A faint sound of electricity surging could be heard.

The yellow emergency lights illuminated section by section along the track above the wall.

The dim light barely pierced the deep darkness, revealing the outline of this super arsenal to everyone.

The dome is extremely high, reaching several hundred meters.

Thick alloy pillars, like giant pillars supporting the sky, stand on both sides of the workshop.

Solomon stepped forward.

The twelve metal feathers on his back were fully extended.

A beam of light, emanating from the tip of the feather, continuously scanned the dimly lit workshop.

Ten engineering dummy vehicles drove in from the rear.

"This should be the raw material receiving area; it's quite well preserved."

Look down.

"The ground transport tracks are basically usable. Any that are damaged can also be repaired using our technology."

The situation here seems to be going well.

But as they continued deeper, passing through the first half-open isolation door, the scene before them suddenly changed.

The assembly area ahead.

Hundreds of enormous robotic arms hang upside down beneath the dome.

The surface of the robotic arm, which should have been a smooth alloy, was now covered with a thick layer of black rust.

Those are the traces of erosion caused by the combined effects of the abyss's aura seeping in and the passage of time.

In mid-air, several thick energy pipelines were already carbonized and brittle.

The exposed conductive fibers broke like withered vines.

"There is a break in the control network. The entire optical transmission channel is damaged, and physical commands cannot be sent to the robotic arm at all."

Without nerves, this enormous body would be nothing more than a pile of scrap metal even if it were electrified.

Keep going.

The deepest part of the workshop.

A heavy, circular isolation door blocked the way.

The door is silver-white, with intricate patterns engraved on its surface, and has a dull luster.

"This is the core manufacturing cavity."

Yuan explained in mid-air,

"When the disaster struck, the underlying security protocols were triggered, and the area was forcibly locked down."

"Open it now."

Shen Tian spoke up.

With a loud hissing sound of air pressure being released, the circular isolation door slowly rotated and opened.

The interior is completely different from the outside.

Rows of manufacturing pods, shaped like insect cocoons, are neatly arranged on a circular track.

The metal casing is as smooth as a mirror, without any trace of rust or corrosion, perfectly reflecting the yellow emergency lights outside.

Because they were in a completely sealed environment for a long time, they miraculously avoided the contamination of the abyss's power.

"Not completely damaged."

Solomon analyzed.

"It has the potential for restoration."

Just then, Yuan's holographic projection drifted in front of Shen Tian.

The blue light spots recombine, projecting a holographic list that is hundreds of pages long.

"A complete repair plan for the first backup production line has been generated."

The source mechanically reported,

"Currently, there are a total of 17,340 damaged and aging components. To ensure the stable operation of the industrial system, the repair process requires replacing the following original high-precision components..."

Each technical term is followed by a long list of precise parameters.

Solomon's gaze also turned in their direction.

He currently serves as a member of the Human Federation and also as the Chief Engineer of the Human race.

Then he shook his head.

"It can't be fixed."

"These components far exceed the current limits of Earth. They cannot be manufactured at present."

"To manufacture these high-precision repair parts, we need a production line at the level of the Sky Civilization."

Solomon pointed to the parameters on the screen, "

But now, to get this production line running again, we need to manufacture these high-precision parts first.

Being stuck due to a bug is an example of this.

Shen Tian looked past the list and at the silent core manufacturing chambers in front of him.

If the production line cannot be restarted, the standard alloy plates that have been reconstructed from the outside world can only be used as pure materials for city walls.

Without any processing capabilities, the industrial heritage of the Azure Sky Civilization will forever remain on paper.

Solomon stepped forward.

He thought for a moment and then said.

"I suggest that it is not advisable to abandon the overall restoration plan at this time."

He turned around and looked at Shen Tian.

The twelve metal feathers on its back began to emit high-frequency vibrations.

Silver mechanical laws leap and pull between the feathers.

Solomon raised his hand and drew a circle in the air.

They encircled the nearest cocoon-shaped manufacturing pod in front of them.

"What it lacks is a control network and an external robotic arm."

"We don't need to wake up the entire production line, we just need to wake it up."

"Awaken a unit with manufacturing capabilities."

"I can use the laws of mechanics to bypass those physically damaged lines. I can control it directly with my laws of mechanics."

"Of course, this plan may have many problems."

"For example, it is almost impossible to perfectly replicate mechanical laws controlled by human power. At the beginning, a lot of resources may need to be invested in trial and error."

Solomon was telling the truth.

The advantages and disadvantages were laid out before Shen Tian.

Shen Tian nodded.

"This is the only way at the moment."

As long as this smallest manufacturing unit can operate and produce the first high-precision gear belonging to the Sky Civilization, the snowball of industry can start rolling across this wasteland.

We built machines from machines, gradually restoring the entire workshop.

"Then we'll leave it to Congressman Solomon."

This will be the core of the expeditionary force's true cross-industry industrial capabilities, and no mistakes will be tolerated.

This is a long-term project; you can't expect to set up an assembly line in just three to five days.

Shen Tian's voice was calm and even, echoing in the empty, dimly lit workshop.

You stay here and dismantle those arrays at your own pace. If you need any resources, just give the orders to the engineering team outside.

I will have the First Legion deploy its most elite squads to blockade the area within fifty kilometers of the Skybreaker.

Solomon turned his head, and the twelve feathers of law behind him slowly retracted.

"Leave it to me."

This is just a mechanical clone of Solomon.

It is supported by Solomon's spiritual power and the computing power of Earth.

He scanned the cocoon-shaped manufacturing pod in front of him.

"I need three days to establish a mechanical law cycle within this independent unit, and during this time, it must not be interrupted by any external force."
