    This was the first time Ning Shi had heard of the Sk. He could not help but ask, “What is Sk? Is it awork that connects all the star fields?”


    Thank you readers!


    Ning Shi found it hard to imagine that the Seven Star Fields were boundless and contained nearly ten thousand lifes. There was actually awork that could connect the Seven Star Fields together.


    Ye Hongmian nodded and said, “The Sk is a virtualwork that connects all the lifes in the Seven Star Fields. It is formed by the biological wave signals emitted by the Queen Mother Mecha, one of the Seven Star Mechas.


    “The Queen Mother Mecha can split into trillions of small sub-bodies. These sub-bodies are naturally under the control of the Queen Mother’s main body. No matter where they are, the sub-bodies can transmit information to the Queen Mother’s main body.


    “Based on this information transmission technology that was simr to biological gene fluctuations, the Sk was formed.


    “The terminal equipment we use to log into the Sk is the offspring of the Queen Mother Mecha.”


    Ning Shi thought of Ball’s Division ability. It also had absolute control over the sub-bodies. The parent body’s control and transmission of information to the sub-bodies would not be weakened by the distance.


    With this technology, it was indeed possible to build a Sk that ignored distance.


    “What are the Seven Star Mechas? ording to what you said in ss, there are only four levels of mechas: beginner mechas, intermediate mechas, advanced mechas, and titled mechas. Where did the Star Mechase from?”


    Ye Hongmian replied gently, “The four levels of mechas are determined by the strength of the mecha.


    “And the Star Mechas, strictly speaking, should also be titled mechas. The reason why they were called Star Mechas was that these seven mechas have always been the exclusive mechas of the Seven Domain Lords.


    “We call them Star Mechas to highlight the special status of the Domain Lords, implying that the Domain Lord family’s rule over the star field is as long as the stars.


    “On the other hand, after so many years of umtion, the Seven Star Mechas have absorbed the best resources in the region. In terms of strength, they might have already surpassed the scope of a titled mecha.


    “However, the academicmunity has always been in controversy about the strength of the Star Mechas. Whether the Star Mechas havepletely surpassed the strength of the titled mechas, everyone has always had conflicting opinions regarding this.


    “The Star Mechas are the ace of the Seven Domain Lord families; it has been many years since they have appeared on the battlefield. As for their exact strength, we have no way of guessing, so I didn’t mention it in ss.”


    Ye Hongmian could not help but smile when she saw that Ning Shi was listening with great interest. She continued, “The Seven Domain Lord families, as the name suggests, are the families that rule the Seven Star Fields.


    “The specific information of the Domain Lord’s family can be slowly checked after you log in to the Sk.


    “The Queen Mother Mecha is one of the Seven Star Mechas, and it is currently piloted by the Third Domain Lord, Zhongli Sixian.


    The Zhongli family is the Domain Lord family of the Third Star Field. After overthrowing the previous Domain Lord family, the Zhongli family has ruled the Third Star Field for nearly 3,000 years.”


    Hearing this, Ning Shi’s expression changed. He made a reasonable guess, “It’s precisely because of the Queen Mother Mecha’s existence and uses that the Third Star Field dered eternal neutrality and was epted by the other space zones, right?”


    Ye Hongmian looked at Ning Shi dotingly and praised, “Ning, you connect the dots very quickly! That’s right, it’s because the Zhongli family’s Star Mecha is the Queen Mother Mecha, and the Sk belongs to the Zhongli family.


    “In order to make the forces of the other star fields agree to use the Sk, the Zhongli Family dered eternal neutrality. In many star field wars, they practiced the principle of neutrality and slowly gained everyone’s trust.


    “At the same time, the Sk has established special data centers in the major star fields, and the data in the Sk is handed over to the Domain Lord families of the various star fields.


    “That was why the Sk is now spread all over the Seven Star Fields.


    “Due to the existence of the Sk, the 3rd Star Field had be themunication center of the seven Star Fields, which had led to the development of technology and cultural industries in the 3rd Star Field.


    “After thousands of years of development and umtion, my home, Great Tranquility, has be the most famous cultural star of the Seven Star Fields.”


    After listening to Ye Hongmian’s story, Ning Shi gave the Zhongli Family a thumbs up for their survival wisdom.


    Themunicationwork was the most important part of the war. No star field could use the Sk unconditionally, allowing all the data of the residents in their star field to be controlled by the Sk.


    It was very dangerous for the Zhongli family to control all the information.


    However, the Seven Star Fields really needed awork like Sk that could cover all humans. This would save countlessmunication and transaction costs.


    Under such circumstances, the Zhongli Family announced that the Third Star Field would remain neutral forever and set up a database in each major star field. They handed over the control of the data to the families of the major star fields and sessfully promoted Sk.


    Once the Sk wasunched, whether it was the profits from selling the terminal equipment or the hidden profits from the various links of the Sk, it would be enough to make the Zhongli family, who controlled the Sk tform, rich. They would never have to worry about resources again.


    Moreover, this profit was endless.


    Thinking about earning money and profits, Ning Shi suddenly remembered that Ye Hongmian had mentioned that the nobles and elites of the origin were all VIP customers on the Sk. He asked again, “Mian, you just said that the nobles and elites of the Norse Republic like to spend money on Sk. Where do they get the money?”


    Ning Shi hadmunicated with Ye Hongmian before. He knew that in the current interster society, apart from a few sealeds, they all used a digital currency called star field points.


    Star field points were jointly endorsed by the Seven Domain Lord families, and they were linked to helium ores. They were the mostmonly used legal currency in human interster society.


    From this, it could be inferred that star field points were required to purchase items on the Sk. The origin coins issued internally by the Norse Republic were just a pile of useless data on the Sk.


    The nobles and elites might be able to sell the helium ores, but with the fragmented helium ores on the origin, they wouldn’t be able to sell them for much money even if they were sold to the interster society where the helium ores were abundant.


    That was why Ning Shi asked.


    “First, we rely on assistance, and second, we rely on manufacturing, said Ye Hongmian.


    Due to the special status of the origin, the Star Field Alliance had been providing some aid to the origin over the years.


    “Some of these aids are resources, some are funds. ording to your previous analysis, this aid probably went into the pockets of the privileged.


    “Another source of funding is the contract manufacturing industry.


    “In the production process of mecha manufacturing, some of the materials and parts are rtively low-end and will damage the’s resources and environment. The developeds will hand over these low-end industries to the backwards to manufacture.


    “The Norse Republic has beenpleting the orders from Banner in the First Star Field. They can earn a lot of star field points from these orders.”


    After Ye Hongmian’s words, Ning Shi instantly understood why the Norse Republic wanted to continuously train so many workers in the mecha manufacturing industry.


    Ning Shi had never paid attention to this question before, but now that he thought about it, he suddenly realized that it was illogical.


    The Norse Republic had been established for more than 170 years, and there was only a total of 300 or so mechas. In other words, the entire country could not even produce two mechas in a year.


    There was no need to add so many workers to the production of this type of mecha.


    It turned out that so many academies had nurtured so many workers just to produce mechas for Banner and help others to earn star field points.


    This was so that these nobles and elites could spend extravagantly on Sk.


    Ning Shi waspletely disappointed with the privileged ss in the country. These people were all vermin.


    Ning Shi said to Ye Hongmian, “Can you help me apply for a star field resident identity? Please help me buy a Sk Terminal as well. I don’t have any star field points right now. I’ll have to rely on you, little richdy!”


    Ning Shi did not stand on ceremony with Ye Hongmian. He had already treated Ye Hongmian as his confidante, so it was only natural for him to spend her money.


    Ye Hongmian did not mind. She smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’m a teacher at the ‘raining’s Advanced Mecha Academy. The Sk belongs to the Taining. I’ll hurry up and get it done for you. You’ll be able to get to the terminal as soon as tomorrow morning..”
