"Is it reliable?"

Miyoshi Xuesen still looked suspicious. In this line of work, one doesn't easily trust others based on a few words, or else who knows how tall the grass on their grave would be.

"Why don't you check for yourself?"

Chen Fei also knew this monk's quirk, always suspecting whoever he encountered, ideally investigating them thoroughly, or else he would never feel at ease.

"It's Dang Wei Jun, right? I will definitely verify your information!"

Miyoshi Xuesen shook his robe and arrogantly looked at the Earth Element War Professional clad in Single Soldier Tactical Armor.

Wanting to stay by Chen Fei's side definitely required some skills.

"Too meddlesome!"

S-Class Superpower User Heseman Brown expressed dissatisfaction but did not object.

After all, the other party was professional, and his own guarantee might not be one hundred percent.

Dang Wei Jun didn't care at all, letting the scheming monk scrutinize him up and down at will.

Chen Fei glanced at the Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" who organized his schedule and said to the S-Class Space Ability User: "Mr. Brown, in six hours, we set out to gather resources."

"No problem, we can set out anytime."

Heseman Brown immediately made an OK gesture, as was previously agreed, to fill the Life Space within the Boundary Pearl with various materials—atmosphere, water, silicates, and various minerals. Fortunately in the Solar System, these things are almost widely distributed.

Chen Fei's plan of course wasn't just to fleece one sheep, and only fleecing Blue Star definitely wouldn't work. He had to dig a bit everywhere, especially in the planetary rings, which are rich in various materials. Just collecting some would fill the Life Space halfway.

Constantly, airships land and take off on Socotra Island, coming from different sovereignties, taking on the responsibility of transporting materials, and employing some Space System Alchemy Storage Devices to maximize additional transport capacity.

Most of the material receivers are Chen Fei, with the "Wall of Sighs" action troops occupying only a small part. The materials they once carried were not nearly enough to sustain on Antalu Planet for so long, so leveraging the wealthy is inevitable, now simply repaying debts.

Nearly twenty thousand people on Antalu Planet consume daily, with the expansion of "Atlantis" and Satellite Cities and production lines, needing to muster materials for the Star System defense operations plan. The reserves inside the Spatial Branding are nearly exhausted, requiring completion replenishments and significant additional kinds and quantities. Ten or more transport airships barely replenished one-tenth of what the Spatial Branding consumed.

Showing how Louis Industrial Company continuously provides supply for Chen Fei, steadily accumulating a massive reserve, with the entire corporation's near-term profits mostly invested in the Spatial Branding, showing Louis Landon's determination, risking bankruptcy to bet everything on the unpredictable "variable" Chen Fei.

The Element Annihilation Bomb production is entirely for Chen Fei plus some of the First Sovereign's resources, yet the delivered Element Annihilation Bomb total number was only half of the Spatial Branding's original reserve, even less.

Fortunately, the sent core materials could further assemble two thousand more Element Annihilation Bombs, making filling up to six or seven-tenths a matter of time.

Considering the shortage of Element Annihilation Bombs due to America Federation turmoil, the First Sovereign plans to add 100,000 tonne-class special Thermobaric Bombs, Demolition Bombs, and Cluster Bombs, each with extra thickened fragment armor, enhancing explosive shard damage, designed for "Sagali" civilization's biological combat weapons, usable both within and outside the atmosphere.

Common sense dictates the best weapon against biology is the tactical neutron bomb, yet the neutron penetration capability faces doubts against certain substances (water, soil, silicates), otherwise, Element Annihilation wouldn't even be needed, solely relying on neutron bombs would be enough to break "Sagali" civilization down.

Still, tactical neutron bombs might not provide effective damage against biological Space Battleships' massive enormity but are quite effective against smaller biological combat weapons like parasitic species, albeit residual radiation is favorable, yet neutron bombs still aren't fitting for territory defense weaponry.

Apart from vast materials, airships visiting Socotra Island continuously deliver replacement personnel and the Observation Group monitoring "Sagali" civilization's main territory combat.

Some experts arriving on Socotra Island showed interest in the Stargate, something missing for more than thirty years, but Chen Fei completely ignored them; he certainly won't casually trust others, nor provide "Sagali" civilization direct or indirect access to the Stargate, even with the micro Stargate in the First Sovereign's command post acting as a communication device, multiple precautions were set in place, ready to deploy self-destruct chains, ensuring it won't fall into foreign hands.

Thus, these experts are destined to run in vain, making this trip futile.

Several hours later, Chen Fei, with his crew, vanished from the camp in a small assault airship.

In the next second, the airship appeared near the Saturn Rings, then slowly approached the rings area, resembling a giant record encircling the entire planet.

Chen Fei chose the approximately 1800-kilometer-wide C ring area, where countless dust and ice particles drift, having insignificant mass yet abundant quantity—the small airship moving against the C ring, "Boundary Pearl" fully extracting dust and ice particles, collecting billions of tons of dust and ice particles per hour.

Dust is not the primary target; "Boundary Pearl" wants ice particles. Ice is solid water, water is the source of life—without water, Life Space would be a barren place like Antalu Planet, with extreme climate changes and lack of proper biological survivability.

Though nearby Saturn and distant Jupiter's moon Ganymede are water-rich riches, extracting all this water requires facing thick rock crust first. If Chen Fei had that leisure, he would have already collected all ice particles in Saturn Rings.

After four hours of continuous collection, Chen Fei's spiritual power was finally exhausted, marking the shift for the "Power Bank" combo of Ginny and Lin Zixian to take over, replenishing his spiritual power up to the limit before automatically stopping.

Breaking through the limit might indeed slightly improve the spiritual power index cap but requires three days for complete digestion. Within the limit, multiple replenishments could be done, making three-day recharge less practical than one-day recharge, especially with Chen Fei not in a rush to improve his current spiritual power now.

Having stayed around Saturn Rings for three days, with ABCD all four ring areas thoroughly scoured, even prompting Blue Star's astronomical telescopes to detect changes in Saturn Rings, the small airship once more performed spatial movement, appearing directly at the Solar System's ends, where icy micro-planets float, with diameters ranging several kilometers, even exceeding a thousand kilometers. These are the main filling materials for the Life Space inside the "Boundary Pearl."

With Chen Fei's spiritual power strength index limit, he can barely collect one asteroid under 10 kilometers in diameter each time, collecting up to 10 pieces every 24 hours. Continuous operations resulted in pure ice asteroids, solid rock asteroids, and high-metal-content alloy asteroids, yet many dozens, even hundreds of asteroids still fail to construct continental plates inside the pod-shaped Life Space over 500 kilometers in height and over 10,000 kilometers in diameter.

Despite being enticed by those over thousand-kilometer diameter giants, Chen Fei still lacks the ability to incorporate them into his "pocket." Fortunately, the "Power Bank" combo previously for restoring and expanding his spiritual power limits, or else it would be difficult even to collect kilometer-sized asteroids.

Roaming around the Solar System for nearly half a month, the small airship serving as a base and mobile platform finally returned to Blue Star's Socotra Island. Chen Fei needs to continue receiving materials from the First Sovereign, as the Spatial Branding stock finally exceeded before joining the "Wall of Sighs" action troop, signaling his combat capability is restored, but the resupply tasks are still unfinished.

Within this half-month period, a small corner of the Life Space within the "Boundary Pearl" was finally filled, resulting in some changes.
