From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

The doctor looked at his thin arms and legs. As a person who works with his brain, it is still difficult for him to exercise regularly.

Kal'tsit said smoothly, "Doctor, I can have ACE and other elite operators develop a physical exercise plan for you."

The civil war is over, and the Tower of Babel no longer requires the doctor to devote all his efforts to planning strategies, so it is indeed time for the doctor to arrange rehabilitation during the normal awakening process.

"It will be very tiring, Si Ye, how about you provide me with some equipment and I will try to reproduce the body strengthening technology of the previous civilization."

The doctor tried to find a way to avoid training, but the voice of Precious came from the portable terminal in his pocket.

"Doctor, Ama-10's suggestion is a good one. You really need to get some exercise instead of bingeing on canned food every day."

The gravity is so strong, cyber ghosts are everywhere, right?

Si Ye looked at the doctor frantically taking out the portable terminal and shook his head.

The three of them talked as they walked, and soon arrived at Rhodes Island's newly built medical area. A large number of medical equipment purchased from outside were piled up in the corridor due to lack of staff, and a small number of medical operators were walking around busily.

The intensive care unit was located in the middle of the medical area. Si Ye could see the knight Kuranta sitting restlessly in the accompanying area from afar.

"Lord Kelsey."

Shining stood up to greet Kal'tsit, and glanced cautiously at Si Ye and the Doctor.

"This is a doctor, proficient in Originium pharmacology. The patient's mineral disease inhibitory drug came from his hand."

Kal'tsit introduced the doctor to Shining. After learning the doctor's identity, Shining and Lin Guang both looked at him with gratitude.

"This is Si Ye, the actual controller of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals. He has something he wants to discuss with you."

"Shining, Lin Guang, the code name of the lady in the ward should be Nightingale, right?"

"You know us."

Shining looked at Si Ye with some caution, fearing that a few pardoners would suddenly emerge from the shadows behind Si Ye.

"There's no need to be so wary of Quesasina. Quesastusta's tentacles can't reach me yet. If he dared to appear before me, I might even praise his courage, but his pathetic life that has lasted for a thousand years would be completely ended."

Si Ye revealed the Shining, or rather, the thing that she, whose real name was Kwisashina, feared and was wary of, Kwisatusta, the Lord of the Absolvers.

The name Quesatushita has been mentioned many times in Sarkaz history: the Eternal Hope, the Door Knocker, the White-Horned Demon King, the Usurper King...

His many titles may have told of his former greatness, but now that he has survived by possessing the bodies of his descendants, he is no longer the hero he once was, but a despicable man who survives in the shadows with a distorted sense of responsibility and desire for control.

"So... what do you need us to do?"

There is no kindness without reason in this land. Si Ye's words imply that he can help Shining stop the Pardoner Organization from hunting him down. So what does it take to get this treatment?

I want to see your quiet midnight (wrong)

This kind of Japanese plot where you don't want your companion to be without medical assistance will definitely not be played out on Si Ye's side.

Si Ye pointed around and said, "As you can see, Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals is a newly established company and lacks medical personnel. Whether you cooperate with us or become my employee, I have to protect your safety."

"Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals is also committed to saving and treating those infected, which coincides with the apostles' ideology."

Shining and Lin Guang both saw hesitation in each other's eyes. After all, the current Rhodes Island was not established for a long time as in the original plot. Rhodes Island, which is well-known internationally, was not convincing based on Si Ye's one-sided statement.

"The medical department is indeed short-staffed, and as the head of the medical department at Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, I can assure you of my commitment to treating the infected."

It was Kal'tsit who made the perfect assist.

Kal'tsit's reputation is still very useful, and the hesitation on Shining's face immediately decreased a lot.

"Lin Guang, what do you think?"

Shining was moved. She was very clear about Liz's physical condition. The worsening of her oripathy was also due to the fact that she had been wandering around with them and had no fixed place to live.

With a stable organization that could provide shelter and protection from the wind and rain, and even keep her from being hunted down, Liz's health might gradually improve, but she couldn't make decisions for Lin Guang, so she asked.

Lin Guang looked at Shining, then at Si Ye and Kal'tsit, and gave a knight's salute: "If I can help the weak, it is my duty as a knight."

Si Ye gave Kal'tsit a look of praise, but the other party seemed to have something to ask Si Ye.

"How's it going over there, Doctor?"

Kal'tsit asked the doctor who was looking at Nightingale's medical report.

"Well, the patient is clearly suffering from the effects of neurological medication. A specific proportion of blockers needs to be adjusted. I'll go back to the lab and prepare it later. However, I don't have any good suggestions regarding psychotherapy."

From the doctor's point of view, Nightingale's physical condition can only be described as a mess. Although the mineralogy and the residual neurological drugs in the body can be slowly treated through nursing and blockers, the patient's psychological problems can only be slowly recovered with the company of his companions.

"That seems like the only way for now. Let's stabilize his condition first. You can take turns staying here with me. I'll arrange a dormitory for you."

Si Ye is a hands-off boss, and because of the special nature of Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals, which is different from the original plot, all the chores such as arranging accommodation for new employees and applying for identity cards are piled on Kal'tsit.

This made Si Ye start to think about whether he should get some helpers to fill the gap. After all, Kal'tsit's dark circles looked much deeper. If she died suddenly from exhaustion, all the troublesome work would bounce back on his head.

Chapter 26: The Pardoner

"Quesatushita? Leader of the Absolvers? Former Demon King? Seeking to usurp the Black Crown?"

In the Demon King's Courtyard, Tracy was discussing some problems that had arisen in Kazdel with Theresa. Faced with the information brought by Kal'tsit, both of them showed puzzled expressions.

"So the Absolutioner organization has such a history and philosophy. This is the first time I've heard of it."

Theresa looked at Tracy. Although she was the Demon King, her ideas were considered heretical in the eyes of some old Sarkaz people. She had betrayed the blood feud that the Sarkaz clan carried, so when it came to some Sarkaz secrets, she might not know as much as Tracy.

"Um... During the civil war, the Pardoner did cooperate with the Military Committee, but disappeared after we reconciled. Now it seems that the Pardoner does have ulterior motives."

Facing his sister's gaze, Tracy's words rarely paused. After all, the Absolver clan had actually made great contributions in the civil war, and Tracy had also provided cover for them with the identity of the Regent's guard.

Now that he knew that the Absolver clan actually hid a former demon king who had survived for a thousand years by taking over the bodies of his offspring and was intent on seizing the Black Crown, all the unreasonable situations when he had previously cooperated with the Absolver became reasonable, which made Tracy break out in a cold sweat.

"Since the other party has such ambitions, they should immediately recall the Lords of the Royal Court and begin hunting down Quesatusta."

"Hmm... never mind. Since they've chosen to disappear, this fuss will undoubtedly slow down Kazdel's construction progress even further. Besides..."

Theresa thought for a moment and rejected Theresis's proposal to recall the Lord of the Royal Court and completely destroy the Absolutioner.

In today's Kazdel, even the Lord of the Royal Court is assigned a wide variety of tasks.

The Blood Demon Lord blocked mercenaries and spies at the border while acting as a temporary law enforcement team. The Scavengers, led by Neczrei, were building grain-growing plots in Kazdel, and he was also responsible for contacting the royal courts that had fled Kazdel.

The Banshees who were recuperating had spared their few manpower and, as the few intellectuals among the Sarkaz, took on the heavy burden of operating various engineering machinery.

Theresa felt it was not worth stopping all this work for the sake of a pardoner.

"Didn't Si Ye say that I was his chosen agent? I don't have to worry about my safety. And if he's really a hero who once served as a demon king, then the changes Sarkaz has undergone will surely make him let go of his obsession."

"Even with Si Ye's assurance, we can't let down our guard against the Pardoners. Let Ascalon and his men keep an eye on them."

Although Theresa showed great confidence in Nyx's abilities, Kal'tsit still suggested making more preparations for safety reasons.

"Just do as you say, Kelsey."

Theresa didn't want to dwell on this issue too much. She looked at the report on the table again and showed a headache.

"We don't have enough manpower. Even if we clear the industrial land, there won't be enough workers to operate the machines. When will those exiled royal courts return?"

"I've already screened them three times, even filling in some of the more literate members of the Royal Guard. If I were to draw more from the army, there would be no way to guarantee sufficient organization and combat effectiveness."

In response to Theresa's complaints, Theresis said that he had tried his best. No matter how capable he was, he could not make a group of mercenaries who were used to living on the edge of a knife learn various professional skills immediately.

"Sigh... Although Si Ye didn't give us any time to prepare for the review, I still feel a little sorry for them by dragging it out like this."

Just when Theresa and others were feeling the pain and joy of the Sarkaz having resources but no manpower to digest it, what was Si Ye, the instigator of all this, doing?

Answer: Add tool employees to your own land ship.

Synthetic Human

The dangerous red technology in the Stellaris game is a bionic robot made from positron artificial intelligence and a large number of synthetic components. It can provide a large amount of population labor, but there is a risk of sudden rebellion.

The Empire has carried out a series of transformations and optimizations based on the original technology. The application of psychic technology has minimized the risks brought by synths. Although synths cannot awaken psychic powers, through the interference of surrounding psychics on their psychic empathy modules, they can achieve Gestalt-like top-down authority control, which greatly reduces the risk of synths suddenly rebelling.

Later, the Empire also passed some laws. When synths completed a certain number of years of service, they would obtain the rights of third-level citizens of the Empire, which also indirectly reduced the risk of synths feeling enslaved and rebelling.

After discovering that Kal'tsit was overwhelmed, Si Ye decisively ordered Grey Wind to urgently produce a batch of Terra-specific synths, intending to fill the current shortage of medical personnel at Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals.

Si Ye is now taking out the synths from the storage space one by one, activating them, and using his own psychic power to bind to the synths' psychic interfaces, while Nian is watching Si Ye's transformation into a living person.

"You, a puppet? No, an artificial intelligence like the Thor Industrial Car? Wow, this kind of technology looks indistinguishable from a real person."

"Synthetics are indeed a type of artificial intelligence, but they only need to serve in the Empire for 50 to 100 years to obtain citizenship."

The secretary-type synth received Si Ye's order and pushed aside Nian, who was touching him and even wanted to pull his clothes off to see what was going on.

"That's quite a lot of strength. What are you planning to do by bringing so many people out?"

The young man who was pushed away came over again with a playful smile.

"We can't just live in the landship once it's built, right? It's best to let the synths take charge of the daily maintenance and security of the landship."

Although the interior design of this land-based ship has incorporated a lot of automation technology, and the ship-borne AI can save a lot of operators, it is still a bit too abstract for two people to live in such a large land-based ship.

"We can also have synths do the outfitting work, saving a lot of effort."

"That's true. By the way, you promised me last time that you would give me credit for your work. Does that still count?"

Nian naturally had no objection to working less. Then she changed her mind and brought up the meeting between Babel Tower and the Military Committee a few days ago.

"Hmm? Of course it counts. What do you want? You want some synths to help you make a movie?"

"Really? Doesn't that mean I don't have to pay for using them to make a movie? No, no..."

Nian's eyes widened, and he was very tempted by Si Ye's proposal, but soon shook his head frantically.

"I mean, boss, you were able to eat that evil demon alive in outer space, so getting the demon fragments should be no problem for you."

"I understand. You want me to save your sister Shu, right?"

While communicating with his peers, Si Ye completed the psychic link with 500 synths.

"How do you know everything? Could it be that you, Boss, have the same ability to see future possibilities as your sister?"

Nian didn't expect that Si Ye would understand what she wanted to do just as she started.

"Everyone, get to work."

The synths began to work according to their respective models, and Si Ye then looked at Nian with a smile on his face.

"Nian, I heard that your sister Shu in Dahuang City is also very beautiful."

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Don't try to hit on my sister."
