Star Iron, after using the mod to make the Big Black Tower dark, the game became real

Thatch believed that Onphalus's food reserves were in serious trouble.

Without the Empire's reinforcements, they would be facing a great famine by now.

The reason for this is that the apocalypse brought by the Black Tide destroyed many things in Onphalos, and the reconstruction work after the apocalypse required too much effort.

The scepter, after being transformed by the Great Black Tower, could only create a habitable planet for them, rich in natural and aquatic products. Fruits and fish could alleviate the stress somewhat, but it was still far from enough.

"Let Xia Die make the move."

Since the Golden Clan wanted to resolve Onpharos's predicament independently, Jiang Wei only offered some suggestions.

He summoned Xia Die.

Feng Jin and Xia Die arrived at the Governor's Mansion at the same time.

"Lord Jiang Wei."

"Jiang Wei."

The two addressed each other differently.

Jiang Wei hugged Feng Jin and looked at Xia Die, noticing that the two of them were keeping a certain distance from each other.

"Still not used to interacting with others, Xiaodie?"

"Habits are hard to break."

Xia Die felt a little helpless. She did want to try, but the cumulative effect of contact had taken her life away from the world. Xia Die had long regarded the act of "contact" as a dangerous act. She didn't want to hurt others from the bottom of her heart, so her recovery was particularly slow.

"It looks like someone needs to give you a push, at the very least... leaving you to slowly heal your psychological trauma alone will definitely be a very slow process."

Jiang Wei first assigned the task to them.

"Onfaros doesn't have much food reserves, and its dream quality is very efficient, but there are still ways to improve it to a higher level. The solution lies with you, Xiaodie."

"That power within me that causes the production of waste products to increase inexplicably?"

"Exactly."

……

Jiang Wei conducted an on-site investigation of the terrain of Onfaros. The fields surrounding the river were fertile, and large, continuous rice paddies were sprouting tender shoots. Under the ripening effect of the dream essence, they would take a few more days to mature, and at most a week.

"what should I do?"

The butterfly inquired.

[Imperial scientist, the Great Black Tower, has completed a research project, unlocking the technology: Dream Irrigation]

"It's just the right time."

Jiang Wei was extremely satisfied with the efficiency of the Great Black Tower. In areas such as people's livelihood research, she could easily increase Onfaros's production capacity several times over with just a few words.

View technology.

[Dream Essence Irrigation: Unlocks 1 Irrigator position, consumes 100 Dream Essence, increases soil fertility by 125%, reduces grain ripening time by 50%, and increases output by 15%]

This technology can increase output by 15% per harvest.

Combined with the traits of the Butterfly, it produces an additional 115% of food, a significant increase.

"You just need to make sure that you sow the Dream Essence in every paddy field. The increased yield should be enough to meet the needs of the Onfaros people. After that, once the number of farmers increases and the fertility of the fields stabilizes at a suitable level, you can retire and hand over the work to others."

In this way, Onpharos can achieve a basic self-loop.

In times of emergency, Xia Die provides the production capacity; once the emergency subsides, Xia Die should return to her proper post.

Following Jiang Wei's instructions, Xia Die tried to sow the seeds of dreams with great anticipation.

The crystalline dreamlike substance fell like dust, and the crops in the fields grew rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

"There really are changes..."

Even though previous attempts to fertilize with more Dream Essence had failed, Jiang Wei's single sentence seemed to solve the problem?

Xia Die couldn't understand it, but with this ability, Onfaros's food shortage could be made up, and the extra food could be used to develop civilization, engage in foreign trade, or even supply the empire.

Having endured countless cycles of eternal damnation, the Onphalus people yearned for a bright future. Xiaodie stood in the verdant fields, reaching out to touch the green shoots in the soil.

It felt cool to the touch, and there were still dewdrops from last night on it.

The plants did not wither, and her hands would no longer bring death to anything.

According to Jiang Wei, even if she later inherits the "Death" flame and becomes Onpharos's first Death Demigod and Titan, she will be able to control her power freely without any flaws.

Xiaodie breathed in the fresh air, the fragrance of flowers and trees, and a real butterfly landed on her finger. The weight of life brought her a touch of joy.

Chapter 84 Forming a Cabinet is of Utmost Importance

Xia Die felt she was being a bit greedy.

Onpharos was saved.

With the Empire's help, she gained true life, and her hands no longer bring death or harm others.

This is already an immense blessing.

But there was still something she kept to herself.

"In my previous reincarnation, my sister and I participated in the trials of the Death Titans. The trials required us to 'personally take the life of our loved ones.' I sacrificed myself, allowing my sister to become a demigod. However, to save me, she relinquished her power over life and death."

Before the trials of the Fire Seed had even begun in this lifetime, the Savior arrived and gave life to the people.

The people buried in Onphalus are preserved in a database in the form of data.

"Do not worry."

Jiang Wei gently stroked her hair.

"You won't have to wait long before you're reunited with your sister."

It's not difficult for Xia Die to locate her sister's database status simply by cooperating with the Big Black Tower.

"Thank you."

Xia Die felt a surge of gratitude.

"You should have said so sooner. I am not an unreasonable person."

The incomplete "death" authority made Xia Die's upbringing very painful, and she also became somewhat introverted, unwilling to confide in outsiders.

Jiang Wei gently hugged her, offering a word of encouragement.

"Believe me, if you encounter any difficulties in the future and don't want to talk to others, just tell me alone, and I promise I will help you no matter what."

This promise clearly went beyond normal friendship; it was a bit too intimate, and Xia Die felt a little uneasy.

Her fondness for the savior made her very willing to obey Jiang Wei's orders.

In addition, he promised to save his sister, adding to the debt of gratitude.

A strange feeling arose in Xiaodie.

"I'm leaving now. Remember what I said today. I'll let you know when there's news from the Great Black Tower, and then you'll be reunited with your sister."

Jiang Wei prepared to leave.

Xia Die hesitated for half a second, then suddenly reached out and hugged him.

"I...don't know how to thank you. Your hug was so warm. Can I hug you more often in the future?"

She was plagued by anxieties and uncertainties.

"You can do it anytime you want."

Jiang Wei had a good idea, but after thinking about it, he decided to discuss it later.

After Xia Die and her sister are reunited, they will enjoy double the deliciousness.

……

The empire is expanding at a rate of about 50 star systems per day.

This efficiency far exceeds expectations. If the update of the interstellar map is delayed by even ten minutes, it will become an incorrect version of the star map. Several new versions are released every hour.

After bidding farewell to Xia Die and finishing his official duties, Jiang Wei found it was almost dusk.

"The cabinet must be established as soon as possible, otherwise there will be too much official business."

The last piece of intelligence was Aglaia's connection with the robin.

Through some unknown channel, Aglaia heard that the Robin would represent the "Empire" in establishing some charitable organizations with a wide range of operations, including saving civilizations caught in war and providing aid to resource-scarce areas.

This idea was exactly what Aglaia wanted.

Although the fire brought her a thousand years of mental wear and tear, it did not erase her original aspirations.

"Aglaia teams up with the robin to save people from suffering?"

Jiang Wei rested his head on Xi Lian's lap and saw their updates on his phone.

"This is so unexpected, how could these two get together?"

“Aglaia is a kind girl, and the robin is also a kind girl, which makes perfect sense.”

"But their personalities and other aspects are too different."

One is a demigod who inherited the flame, and the other is a galactic songstress. Their appearances and cultures are quite contradictory.

But upon further reflection, the strange feeling in Jiang Wei's heart melted away like snowflakes under the blazing sun.

"The empire has grown large and powerful."

Two completely unrelated women were able to work together.

Similar situations will become more and more common, as the number of civilizations under the empire's jurisdiction continues to increase, and cultural fusion is bound to happen sooner or later.

Jiang Wei opened the resource panel.

It's great to see that the alloy has become a positive number. Although the daily increase is 590 after excluding the consumption of research ships and armed fleets, it's not much, but at least it's a positive number, not a deficit.

It's a good thing that Onfaros will no longer need food aid from the Empire starting today.

"hey-hey."

March 7th peeked out with a smile.

She stood with Xi Lian, the two pretty girls quite eye-catching.

"Why are you laughing so happily? What kind of mischief are you up to? Tell me."

"No way~ Jiang Wei, you're just looking at me with prejudice."

"Really."

Jiang Wei propped himself up, using Xi Lian as a pillow, turned on the TV, and waited for March 7th to admit it in person.

Xi Lian swung her legs back and forth, her petite body sitting on the sofa in an adorable pose, her toes not reaching the ground.

Waited for a few minutes.

March 7th grabbed his arm and shook it.

"Alright, I give up. I do have something to attend to, something about the Starry Sky Train."

Star Train?

Jiang Wei was immediately puzzled and guessed.

"You want to go back to being an anonymous passenger on the train? But your wish from a few days ago was still to colonize planets. I saw you having a lot of fun in Onpharos."

He was reluctant to let March 7 go; he was too busy lately to visit March 7 on the train, and they would inevitably be unable to meet for a while.

March 7th hurriedly interrupted Jiang Wei's thoughts.

“I never said I was leaving… Isn’t the Star Train currently expanding its reach? They just solved a problem for one civilization, but recently the Robin has been helping a suffering civilization, and I have some thoughts about that.”

"Belloberg?"

"You actually knew that."

"nonsense."

Jiang Wei was amused by the silly March 7th.

“I’ll definitely keep an eye out for any signs of the Star Train. Where do you think Belloberg’s information came from?”
