Chapter 1,299 Prospects for New Battleships

Before the core stabilization device overheated and alarmed, Tavel tested the disassembly generator ten times in total, which took nearly an hour to complete. We tested the new weapon's ability to destroy and penetrate various protective means, as well as Its stability in various environments. Judging from the current results in all aspects, it has reached the point where it can be practical. The only drawback is that its lifespan is shorter than any existing field artillery. It is likely to last after three to four high-intensity battles ( Assuming each battle lasts less than six hours), its core mathematical rate generator will melt down, and a ship carrying such a weapon may become a frequent visitor to the maintenance dock. But how to put it - service life is often a common problem with such high-tech equipment, especially for powerful weapons. Because of its powerful power and imperfect structure, a new weapon will malfunction and be damaged very quickly on the battlefield. Some potential shortcomings are that they cannot be inferred through laboratory simulations and mathematical formulas. Only on the battlefield with real complex environments can the weapons in your hands be best tested. This is equivalent to what Qianqian and I did before each exam. We spent at least three days studying how to write cheat sheets, but after each exam we both called our parents. Theoretical things always need to be tested in practice...

Of course, this may have nothing to do with either of us. In my impression, Qianqian and I were the most successful plagiarists in the exam. The result was that both of us failed together. Life is so bleak. Why do I mention this? ?

Of course, rigorous imperial scientists will not allow unreliable equipment to be issued to soldiers. The life problem of this small disassembly generator is a flaw that can be tolerated. This does not mean that it cannot meet the requirements for field installation: it just There is still room for adjustment.

New weapons are not unreliable, but they need to be perfected in actual combat.

"The test results show that the low-strength shield has zero defense against the prototype. The high-strength shield can resist attacks in a short period of time. But if it is continuously irradiated, it will still be destroyed. However, considering that a mobile target is continuously irradiated on the actual battlefield, The difficulty is extremely high, so it can be considered that the high-strength shield's defense against the prototype is sufficient. The protective effect of the anti-phasing device is lower than expected, and traditional space protection methods cannot fully protect against the disassembly effect. The parsec device is still vulnerable to any It has complete defensive capabilities against all forms of attacks. To sum up, the prototype has explosive and ultra-high damage, and it is recommended to be installed as soon as possible. It may not be a slight threat to units equipped with special shields such as fortress ships, but it is very effective against conventional units. The target of the shield, it's a lethal weapon."

Tavel announced her test results in a calm voice, but her calm voice could not hide the excitement in her eyes. The long-term efforts finally paid off, and the new weapons perfectly demonstrated their power in front of their monarch: For a scientist obsessed with creating crazy new weapons, there is nothing more satisfying than this.

"The overtime work of Quality Projector No. 139 to No. 155 is not in vain," Tavel breathed a sigh of relief and sighed in a low voice, "Your Majesty, you can order the mass production of these things at any time. My subordinates suggest that you first make a batch of prototype ships equipped with new weapons and put them into actual combat as soon as possible, so that we can improve the second-generation products early, and maybe... we can really find someone to produce the King's Lander battleship. method."

Pandora next to her suddenly made a few rapid beeping sounds from her stomach, indicating that she was in a very excited mood. This little girl seems to be really planning to use the Morse code in her belly to communicate with people: the three things have reached the extreme, that is, they are not willing to say even a single word, and ventriloquism has to use monosyllables... But in the end, she still He tugged on my sleeve, full of expectation: "Brother. I want this."

This tone is as cute as an ordinary little loli asking an adult for candy, except that Pandora wants something that can cut the sun in half. I still have to say, this little girl is a good girl, but she has to make her happy. The cost is really high!

As a Xiling-style "war scientist" who specializes in research and development but is also knowledgeable about actual weapons combat, Tavel said she has two application options for new weapons:

"One is to use it as a second-generation main gun and install it on main attack warships such as the Expedition-class to replace the original "Corona-class" main gun of the Expedition-class. The Expedition-class manufactured in this way will become another A T2 spacecraft. Or a "half" T2 spacecraft: because it only has enhanced gunfire, its evolution is not enough to truly replace it. Strictly speaking, it cannot be counted as a T2 (that is, based on the existing prototype, it is produced All-round leap-forward new equipment) for battleships. These verification-type disassembly generators have high energy consumption requirements, and the expedition-class is the most suitable spacecraft as its carrying platform: it has a relatively sufficient energy grid. Battleship size It is also suitable, and there will be no problem of installing cannons on small ships or small cannons on large ships. If you use a smaller ship than the expedition class, it will basically not be able to carry it. These disassembly generators don’t look big, but they consume a lot of energy. It’s astonishing that they have to use more than half of their energy to protect their core from being dismantled by themselves. The expedition-class energy grid is already at the limit of how it can carry the disassembly generator. If smaller warships are forced to install this thing, the shield will be weakened. Strength, or redesigning the entire energy system, which will exponentially increase the difficulty of modification. Instead of doing this, we might as well build a new spacecraft."

Tavel paused for a moment, letting me consider this first idea. Her idea is easy to understand, and it is also the most commonly used installation method after most new weapons are developed: first equip it on existing active spacecraft, and then send it to the battlefield together with other ordinary types of spacecraft. Test the coordination effect of the new weapon and the mounting platform, and finally wait for time and experience to polish it into a suitable imperial blade. We have been doing this all the time, and the Expedition-class is generally considered to be the most suitable active ship for this kind of modification. It allocates the most energy grids for weapon components among ships of its class, and it has enough modification slots. This is the reason why there are as many as seven or eight second-class branches of the battleship class, such as the expedition-class assault type, the expedition-class close-defense type, the expedition-class three-room and one-living type, and so on - the last one was built under the order of Qianqian. The spaceships recovered from the battlefield that were severely scrapped and could not return to the battlefield even if repaired were refitted. Their main purpose was to transport them long distances in the macro world, and their value was equivalent to that of Gawker. When the macro world network load is too heavy, the three-bedroom and one-living-type expedition grade and the apartment-type faith grade are particularly popular...

"The second idea..." Tavel considered the words, as if she found this idea shocking, "is to create a new type of warship, completely independent of any existing warships. We can create a new architecture s things."

My eyebrows couldn't help but twitch. Tavel's thinking was no faster than Qian Qianqian's: "For a new cannon, build a new ship?" I personally feel that this is like buying a new tie and then changing it. Like a wife...

"It's not just that," Tavel opened his data terminal and projected a rudimentary thing in front of us. It should look like a spaceship - or a flattened catamaran coffin. Two cuboids with a high front and a low back are arranged in parallel. Anyway, you know this style. In short, it even has a basic frame. It seems that this is indeed not a whim. At least before the disassembly of the generator was completed, Tavel had already There is a plan. "The upgrading of warships requires hard accumulation of technology. Only 70% of the systems need to be redesigned to be suitable for manufacturing a new category of warships. In addition, the matching between new equipment and old platforms must also be considered. Question. As you can see, the disassembly generator is our most special 'conventional weapon' at present. Its function may be similar to artillery, but its combat method, killing range and attack rhythm are completely different from conventional artillery. It is more powerful but has poor applicability. This means that the spacecraft equipped with the disassembly generator is destined to adopt a new combat mode. In this way, the compatibility between the old model of spacecraft and this new equipment is a big problem. It is necessary for us to design something that can match the battle rhythm of the disassembly generator. In addition, does your Majesty still remember those abyssal warships you captured not long ago?"

I thought about it, and Vincent Carlo came to mind: "Oh, you mean the group of T2 spacecraft of the fallen apostles?"

"Yes," Tavel said with a happy look on her face. It seemed that she was indeed quite satisfied with the research samples we brought back at that time. I optimistically estimate that she had dismantled each of those spacecrafts more than three times, "I'm sure. .The Fallen Apostle really created a T2 spacecraft. The shield refreshing equipment of this spacecraft should use the same technology as the abyss deep submersible ship. Its protective performance and self-healing performance are jaw-dropping. They also have a brand-new energy network, A more efficient propulsion device, and a fire control core with amazing stability. These are treasures. It brings us new shields, new psionic reactors, new thrusters, plus the new ones we just made The disassembly generator, and several new technologies we have on hand... everything is ready, why can't we build a new type of spacecraft?"

Tavel looked eager to give it a try, and I completely understood her thoughts: As time went by, the new empire had indeed completed a certain degree of technological accumulation, and now, we suddenly captured the enemy T2 spacecraft and the demolition of the newly developed Solving the generator became an opportunity. The military industrial madman in front of him couldn't wait to assemble these gadgets into a big killer that everyone loved.

"Of course, this will be more time-consuming. To improve the framework, we have to upload their master blueprints to all Xiling hosts and add production lines to all star ports. It may take a month in total," Tavel said frankly. Difficulty, "But this is good value for money. It can maximize the potential of the dismantling generator and make up for the shortcomings of the imperial army in high-precision armaments: the numerical gap between us and the fallen apostles is too big. We can only rely on elite soldiers and special equipment to make up for it. That’s the theory.”

I breathed out and showed an approving expression: "Okay, I approved it, but after the final plan is finalized, I have to ask Sandora to review it again. She is an expert in this area."

Tavel smiled and nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty. In addition...do you want to name the spacecraft that is about to be delivered in person?"

name? When I heard this word, I was in a daze because I was really not good at it: "Naming... you can figure it out. You know, I'm not good at naming." I'm really not good at it. Look at Xiaoxue's answer. How can I regret my own name...

Tavel opened his mouth slightly embarrassed: "Well, Your Majesty, Mistress Qianqian will soon get the news that the new spaceship will be put into production..."

As soon as Tavel finished speaking, I knew what she meant. Cold sweat suddenly started to form on my neck. Looking at the new battleship on the holographic projection, one word echoed in my mind: Chen Jun's biceps...

Based on my years of understanding of Qian Qian, do you believe she really dares to give her this name?

"I'd better quickly think of a name for it." I wiped my cold sweat and thought quickly. This kind of attack spaceship that can dismantle everything in the world should have a famous name. After thinking about it, I felt that there was only one name suitable for it, "You I think it’s called the demolition office…”

Tavel looked at me with despair: "Your Majesty, please think again..."

I thought twice about it for a long time. Sadly, I discovered one thing: I and Qian Qian are truly a match made in heaven. The only thing that makes the name I came up with more reliable than Qian Qian is that the words "Chen Jun's" are not added in front of it.

Gaia, who didn't speak the whole time and just acted as background color, once again had the word "nowloading" on her head.

"Then I'd better find a way to solve it myself... Maybe His Majesty Sandora will have some suggestions. Theoretically, that's the case," Tavel's mouth trembled slightly and his voice tried to remain calm, "My subordinates will try their best to get there before Lord Qianqian can. Do it before the mother has any immature thoughts.”

I nodded in approval. He thought it was a good thing to have such a shrewd and thoughtful subordinate, but after seeing the frame diagram on the holographic projection, he still couldn't help but make some comments: "Tavel, I still have to say, this spaceship Can the shape of..."

Tavel immediately pushed up his glasses and showed a serious expression. Before she spoke, I quickly waved my hand: "I know what you are going to say, but even if this shape is slightly changed, it would be good. Look, most of the main spaceships are basically coffin-shaped. Every time I look at the fleet, It feels like the Martyrs Cemetery is floating above my head..."

Tavel: "..."

After some negotiations, the persistent coffin controller was finally willing to make some concessions on the design of the spaceship. I don’t know how much of a concession she meant, but as long as it doesn’t look like a one-piece coffin. To be honest, nowadays everything is a couple costume. The clothes belong to the couple, the mobile phone belongs to the couple, and now even the coffin has to be a couple's one-piece style. I am really worried about when the world will not even have cremation due to the information disturbance of the Xiling God System. Every venue has launched a 25% off event for couples to double burn...

"There is one last question." After all the technical aspects were reported - or after confirming that I really didn't understand, I brought up another matter, "Tavel, you see, we only have the incomplete King's Landing on hand. Using advanced technology, they created this small disassembly generator. The information in the hands of the fallen apostles is more detailed than ours, so why didn’t they come up with this idea of ​​miniaturization earlier?”

When Tavel heard this, he suddenly showed an unusually proud smile: "Not only can they think of this, but the scientists of the old empire can also think of it. But no one has ever successfully miniaturized the 'Genesis' device. Theoretically, miniaturized disassembly The solution generator can only be manufactured by the current New Empire, because we control a vital mineral resource. This mineral resource cannot be copied, nor can it be created through the field filling technology of the Xiling host. It is a specialty of the New Empire. ——Do you know this?"

As he spoke, Tavel took out a small metal column from his pocket. I took it curiously and found that it was quite heavy. It had a gray-black metallic luster, but the specific color tone on the surface seemed to be changing all the time, as if It was resonating with something around it, and this resonance was even more obvious after it came into contact with my hand. Almost just a few seconds later, rainbow-colored ripples visible to the naked eye appeared on its surface.

Is this a specialty mineral of the New Empire? Is it the one that makes Tavel's genius creation a reality, and this rigorous female scientist also asserts that the fallen apostle cannot replicate the technology of the small disassembly generator?

"This is the refined product of the source energy mine, the core energy-guiding material," Tavel smiled, "Salute to your power, Your Majesty, your power catalyzed this 'real substance' that should not exist in theory. It It can conduct almost 100% of any energy, and can even turn itself into a pure psionic energy entity for a short time, and then turn back into such a metal column without any damage. Before this, no material could react like this with psionic energy. To still maintain the stability of its nature, we used to be able to confine the critical psionic energy through an extremely large and heavy binding force field - but now we only need a small cylinder less than two inches long. This is why the enemy will never If they can't make the kind of small disassembly generators that are out there, where can they find this kind of 'matter' that can't even be theoretically established?"

I immediately laughed with satisfaction, feeling like I was quite useful...

After coming out of the weapons testing site, I originally planned to go home directly, because it would be time to start dinner in a little while. In the first family, there are two things that are as unshakable as the laws of nature. The first is Sandora's appetite. The second is Sandora’s meal. After spending time with Her Majesty the Queen for a long time, I have developed the habit of planning my schedule according to meal times. Even if I don't go home for dinner, I can accurately judge when my family will cook. But seeing Pandora in a really good mood, I thought it would be good to take her around the Shadow City for a while: in my impression, it had been a long time since I had been alone with this stupid little girl.

The commercial street in Shadow City is as lively as ever. Even though it is close to the time when most citizens go home for dinner, the flow of people here has not decreased at all. And I know that even into the middle of the night, this "No. 1 Commercial Street", which is the backbone, is still busy. It will be as bustling and bustling as it is now. Shadow City is a city that never sleeps or is silent in the true sense. Countless residents with completely different life forms live in the same city, forming the unique "cyclic clock phenomenon" of Shadow City. The nocturnal race, the sleepless race and the regular race work in three shifts. Commercial Street No. 1 in Shadow City is a city that never sleeps every day. No matter when you come to the street, you will see three kinds of people at the same time: those who have just woken up, Some have been working for half a day, and some are having dinner. You can understand it just by looking at the restaurants here: breakfast is always prepared together with dinner...

Sandora likes this kind of atmosphere the most.

I pulled the little Pandora and walked on the street, looking at the bustling market in front of me. Along the way, people would recognize the two of us, which would cause a small commotion. Pedestrians on the road would stop and salute, and then take out their wallets. The data terminal posted on Weibo: I was shopping in the commercial street and saw the emperor cheating on his sister - although I couldn't see what they were posting, I guess it was something similar to this. Of course, some people would nervously come up to say hello, and be careful to keep a subtle distance from Pandora. But generally speaking, it doesn’t happen that people like to rush in and ask for photos - this kind of situation did happen at the beginning, but our family would go to this place in groups every now and then, and even squat. Eating Malatang on the curb while watching the store opening and setting off firecrackers across the street. As time goes by, you know that if you live in the same apartment building as the president, you will definitely not be interested in asking for autographs after two months.

It's just that most presidents don't live in apartment buildings, but our family still retains the habit of going out to pave the road every afternoon...

I lowered my head and looked at Pandora who was following me, clutching the hem of my clothes tightly. Her behavior looked childish. If anyone raised it openly, they would definitely suffer a million consecutive one-meter-two supersonic headbutts. But this is her habitual action. There are always many unsolved mysteries in the world. It seems that no one can explain why Bingtis evolved from a middle-aged girl into a female gangster. I can't explain why Pandora's occasional childishness comes from.

Pandora was in a good mood now, and her attention rarely stayed on the vendors passing by on the street. Normally, she would never be interested in such things.

"Brother, that." Just as I was thinking this, Pandora suddenly tugged on my sleeve, pointing her little finger not far ahead, and looking in the direction of her finger, I saw a surprising scene:

A newly opened large storefront - well, a large storefront is nothing, but there is a sign on it:

Fiyali Void Consortium - Imperial Capital Headquarters.

That Void Vendor is so powerful! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please read it.)
