Star Iron, building an empire starting with game development

Chapter 212 Reproduction? Reproduction!

Beyond the Target World

"..." Elena crossed her arms, tapping her fingers lightly on her forearm, watching the world barrier about to be breached...

"It'll be soon. The rest is just a matter of seeing how the child lives in this world."

Galactic Empire Forward Base

In Xing's room, Xing was rolling around on the super-large, luxurious bed...

"I said, is that enough?" The Emperor's consciousness, which had been standing there for a full hour, finally couldn't help but speak up.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Xing stopped and asked.

"Can you solve the problem of the Terran swarm?" the Emperor asked directly.

"The solution is simple, and it will completely eliminate the Great Devourer. But the problem is that after dealing with the Tyranids, your Empire will have to face a more conceptual breeding swarm." Star smiled, then handed a certain point of knowledge to the Emperor.

"..." The Emperor remained silent as he looked at what Xing had given him.

"Finished reading? Yes, I can completely deal with the primitive Zerg swarm fleet that Tyrannosaurus can't even achieve faster-than-light speeds, as well as the main body, the Great Devourer, behind them. But whether this universe, including the humanity you're protecting, will still exist is a question," Xing said bluntly.

"Then I'll leave it to you." The Emperor still felt it was better to let Star handle it.

"You don't like humans anymore? Well, that makes sense. With the existence of the State Religion and the Ministry of Government, those insects, and the four evil gods, plus the genetic problems of humanity itself—I understand." As Xing spoke, she saw the Emperor's light dimming again and again, and smiled in agreement.

"But you don't need to worry about the human race. Humans in this world are beyond saving, but there are plenty of humans in other worlds, aren't there? As long as you're willing to become an ordinary immortal being and live peacefully behind the scenes," Xing said with a smile.

"..." The emperor did not respond.

"Heh~ You're quite capable for your age~ My dear host?" Elena's figure appeared behind Xing.

"Huh?! Elena!" Xing exclaimed in surprise.

"I just solved the entry problem and found you, only to discover you're negotiating a deal with the emperor of this world? Perfect, tell me what it means that there are plenty of human races in other worlds?" Elena approached Xing with a friendly smile.

"Hahahaha..." Xing laughed awkwardly and turned her head away.

"Never mind." Elena released Xing and came to the Emperor's spiritual body.

“As you wish, I will give you this.” Elena took out a device sealed inside a transparent glass sphere.

"The Universe Reboot Device can reboot an entire universe, returning it to the very beginning of life, or, according to your will, back to the time when the Star Gods were born. It can even be as small as restoring a resource-poor planet to its former state." Elena tossed the glass ball in her hand to the Emperor.

"..." The Emperor did not respond, but silently accepted the device given to him by Elena.

"Alright, my dear host, it's time to leave this world. After all, once you become a true god, you'll be joining the expedition against the abyss." Elena looked at Xing.

"Alright, alright~" Xing sighed, then took out a thick stack of blueprints and handed them to the Emperor.

"These are the blueprints for the hyperspace engine, the wave core, and the faster-than-light engine. It's up to you how you arrange them," Xing said with a smile, then looked at Elena.

"Which way should we go? Also, can I take care of Tyron first?"

"Just release the breeding swarm. After dealing with Tyrannosaurus, I will restart this universe," the Emperor suddenly said.

"A very good breeding swarm, it makes me want to beat you up. Fine, here's a bit of command over the breeding, I'll leave it to you." Looking at Xing, who had just released a small True Stinger, Elena sighed and then, through some means, handed over command of the swarm Xing had released to the Emperor.

"Hehe~" Xing let out a cute laugh.

"Let's go, and don't follow that drunkard's example." Elena pulled Xing away from there...

"Did a certain universe wipe out the breeding swarms that destroyed two-thirds of the life-bearing regions of the universe? Then let's solve the problems of chaos and the swarms before restarting this universe." Inside the Terra Palace, a certain light appeared in the Emperor's eyes.

"Buzz buzz buzz~" Soon, strange sounds began to appear in the palace. The imperial guards found it strange and were about to do something when they received a psychic notification from the emperor, so they stopped paying attention.

On the moon, a true daphnia suddenly appears, and then swarms of insects begin to spread across the moon...

On Mars, the Mechanicus discovered a problem with the mechanical parts produced in their factory: whenever those parts appeared, they would turn into an insect and fly away.

One of the Mechanicus members, lost in thought, was suddenly attacked by tens of thousands of insects that burst through his body and flew into the sky.

The Mechanicus' private forces began clearing out the suddenly appearing swarm of insects, but the lasers and various live ammunition they fired soon turned into insects and bit them back...

Within ten minutes of the emergence of the breeding swarm in the solar system, the entire solar system, except for Holy Terra which was prohibited by the Emperor through his authority, was filled with insects.

Then, the first Starshattering King Worm appeared, followed by a second, a third... As more and more swarms of worms, including those comparable to planets, emerged, they began to spread from the solar system outwards throughout the Milky Way...

“Strange…” Inside the palace, the emperor noticed something was wrong. Apart from the small swarm of insects that the original star had given him, he could no longer control the swarms that appeared later, including the Star Shattering King Insect.

The Emperor has been able to control a vast number of Starshattering Lords, which are born from His psionic energy. Apart from the fact that His supreme authority still prevents the swarm from attacking Terra, the Emperor has lost the means to control the entire swarm...

"Is this the power of reproduction...?" Through the perspective of a sub-swarming insect, the Emperor saw that in just one hour, the swarm had spread across the entire Milky Way, and he sighed helplessly.

In the Sea of ​​Nothingness

"Hmm? I feel like there's something off about the swarm of insects you gave me?" Elena looked at the distant universe after leaving.

“I’ve given Him the highest level of authority, what could possibly be wrong?” Xing shrugged and said.

"I still feel something's not right." Elena prepared to go back.

“The power of reproduction is not something everyone can control, so it’s not a big deal if uncontrollable variables occur,” Xing said.

"...Okay, I understand." Hearing Xing's words, Elena glanced at Xing, smiled, and led Xing to continue towards a certain place.

“I’m really looking forward to seeing if the Emperor will use that device before the breeding swarms cover the entire universe.” Star smiled and followed Elena away from the sea.

P.S.: That's it. I'm too lazy to continue writing. After all, I don't know what to write anymore. Let the protagonist go to the front lines of the abyss.

Let's celebrate the completion!
