Chapter 7: The Reconstruction and Expansion of Super-Earth
The Fortress of Justice had become more than just a warship. It was a command center, an academy, and now, a beacon of hope for the devastated Earth-199999. Li Wei, now a Level 2 Commander, watched as the first Super-Earth recruits trained in the academy, their movements clumsy but filled with a determination that mirrored his own.
"Commander, with your accumulated War Credits, you have new expansion and support options," Aegis announced, projecting a new series of holographic nodes.
Super-Earth Medic Recruitment: "Units specialized in medical care and life support. Cost: 1,000 War Credits per medic." Field Hospital Construction: "Mobile medical facilities to support frontline operations and civilian areas. Cost: 2,000 War Credits per hospital." Super-Earth Scientist Recruitment: "Units specialized in research, development, and technology adaptation. Cost: 1,500 War Credits per scientist." Research Laboratory Construction: "Facilities for scientific research and alien technology adaptation. Cost: 3,000 War Credits per laboratory." Resource Mine Construction: "Facilities for extracting mineral and energy resources from stabilized planets. Cost: 2,500 War Credits per mine."
Li Wei considered the options. Fighting threats was crucial, but reconstruction was just as important.
"Aegis, I want 10 Super-Earth Medics and 5 Field Hospitals," he ordered. "The health of the survivors and my troops is a priority."
"Request confirmed. 20,000 War Credits spent. Remaining: 0. Medics will materialize aboard the Fortress. Construction of hospitals will begin in the largest Democratic Protection Zones."
The field hospitals, built with Super-Earth technology, were miracles of efficiency. They could deploy in hours and provide advanced medical care, from surgeries to treatments for radiation and diseases. The Super-Earth medics, with their training and equipment, were a vital force for reconstruction.
"Aegis, I also want 10 Super-Earth Scientists and 3 Research Laboratories," Li Wei continued. "We need to better understand the alien technology we've recovered, and we need solutions to make this world habitable again."
"Request confirmed. Scientists will materialize aboard the Fortress. Construction of laboratories will begin on Mars, where we have a secure base and access to Chitauri technology."
The research laboratories, built at the Martian base, became centers of feverish activity. Super-Earth scientists, working with Chitauri and Kree technology, made astonishing discoveries. They adapted Chitauri energy generators to provide clean power to human settlements. They learned to filter contaminated water with Kree technology. They even began experimenting with terraforming small areas, using alien technology to make them arable.
"Finally, I want 5 Resource Mines," Li Wei said. "We need to build a sustainable economy in this system. I want them built on Mars and the icy moon, to extract minerals and fuel."
"Request confirmed. Mines will be constructed at existing bases. Resource production will begin in 48 hours."
The resource mines, combined with clean energy technology and experimental terraforming, began to transform the landscape. Small gardens bloomed on Earth-199999, green oases in the devastation. The icy moon, once a frozen wasteland, became a source of valuable fuel. Mars began to produce essential minerals for construction and industry.
The Expansion of Super-Earth and the New Legacy
With resources flowing, Li Wei began to expand his influence. He sent Super-Earth engineering teams to help rebuild cities, using alien technology to create stronger and more efficient structures. He established communication systems, connecting settlements and bases into an information network.
The Super-Earth Military Academy on the Fortress became a crucible of talent. The recruits from Earth-199999, trained by the Super-Earth instructors, transformed into a formidable force. Li Wei personally trained them, imparting not only combat skills but also the values of Super-Earth: freedom, democracy, and the value of every life.
"We are more than soldiers," he told them. "We are the bearers of a new legacy. We not only fight threats, we build a future."
Li Wei's influence extended beyond Earth-199999. Nearby worlds, seeing the success of his reconstruction, began to send delegations. They wanted to learn, they wanted to join. Super-Earth, once a distant ideal, was becoming a reality.
In his home universe, the Lin family watched with a mixture of fear and astonishment as the world began to speak of an "unknown hero," a mysterious benefactor who was investing in reconstruction, in technology, in hope. Lin Jian, feeling his power fading, became obsessed with discovering the identity of this benefactor, unaware that the answer was closer than he thought.
Li Wei, meanwhile, gazed at the stars from the Fortress's command bridge. He had started as a despised child, searching for a place in the world. Now, he was building an empire of hope across the stars.
"Commander, a dimensional anomaly has been detected on an asteroid near the asteroid belt," Aegis reported, its voice immutable.
Li Wei smiled. "Aegis, prepare the Fortress for the jump. There are more worlds that need our help. And more legacies to build."
