Chapter 764: The Age of Interstellar Discovery
That's right, Wang Jianxing.
They have indeed returned to Wang Jianxing.
It has been repeatedly confirmed that the closest planet to the destroyer is Wang Jianxing.
It used to take a full four years to sail, but it only took a moment to get back.
Wormhole ......
It's amazing.
It's no wonder that praying mantis creatures are able to come and go freely.
Dare to love others has already mastered the secret of wormholes. You can easily travel through the vast universe through wormholes.
What does this mean?
This means that the door to the universe is completely open.
He can travel to and from the star fields within 50 light-years at will. One station at a time to expand to the outside world. One station at a time, the distance from the solar system is getting farther and farther away.
The former solar system was the Stone Age. It is very difficult to go out and walk dozens of kilometers.
With patrol ships, it is equivalent to having horse-drawn carriages and ox carts.
With corvettes, it is equivalent to having trains and cars.
And the appearance of destroyers is the presence of aircraft.
The upgrade of technology has made the vast universe begin to become small for the first time.
From Proxima Centauri to the solar system, through wormholes, you can reach it in an instant. It's faster than from Wang Jianxing to Jupiter.
From Wang Jianxing to Jupiter, there is no wormhole that can be exploited.
It can only be done by relying on space jumps.
The destroyer's space jumping ability is actually quite strong.
However, due to the obstruction of some asteroid belts, two space jumps are still required.
The cooldown time for each space jump is 6 hours.
In other words, it will take at least six hours to return to Jupiter from Wang Jianxing.
From a cosmonautics point of view, this speed is already very, very fast. Therefore, the appearance of destroyers is very sought-after.
Lu Lingqi ordered 500 destroyers in one go. All are unarmed. Completely commercial.
Unarmed destroyers, in fact, are very cheap.
The cost is only about one-fifth of the original.
At the same time, the construction period will be shortened by more than two-thirds.
If all goes well, it will take only 180 days to be able to produce an unarmed destroyer hull.
"Apply for landing. ”
"Landing is allowed. ”
"Apply to log in. ”
"Login is allowed. ”
Soon after, the destroyer slowly approached Wang Jianxing.
Its size was too large for it to land on the surface of Wang Qianxing. The shuttle must be used for the connection.
The huge warship shocked the creatures of the Hausa tribe, and they almost dared not look up.
"Chief Engineer Wang, do you want to go down?"
"No need. ”
"Then let's go first. ”
"Okay. ”
Wang Buan has already made the ship his home.
If there was nothing special, he didn't even want to leave the destroyer.
In fact, a destroyer of this size can be regarded as a home, or a home that can be moved. Go wherever you want.
A 400-kilometer-long super starship! How many people can it carry?
Start with at least 100,000 people.
When necessary, a million people are fine.
However, the entire battleship, there were less than five hundred people.
Space fighters are not equipped.
Mecha units were also not equipped.
If fully armed, it can carry a wing of space fighters. Contains thousands of space fighters.
It is also possible to carry a full mecha commando. That's thousands of mechs.
In the interstellar age, destroyers are not just combat ships. It is also an aerospace carrier and landing ship. The features are multifaceted.
If it is a long-distance engagement, space fighters can be dispatched. Kill a wave first.
If you want to occupy a certain planet, after the particle cannon bombardment, it will be the turn of the mech to assault the battle.
However, in Proxima Centauri, Wang Bu'an has no opponents.
Even, inside the galaxy, there may be no real opponents.
If it were in the galaxy, there was a very powerful civilization, and the Transformers would have been revealed a long time ago.
In fact, it doesn't.
Humans from the earth are already the best.
In the eyes of humans, the Milky Way is already out of reach. But in the eyes of the Transformers, it may be a small pond.
What can be in a small pond that can stir up the wind and waves?
"Chief Engineer Wang, are we going back to Jupiter now?" He Chenghua asked eagerly.
"Okay. Wang Buan nodded, "Let's go." ”
He Chenghua hurriedly ordered.
The destroyer began to make space jumps on the spot.
A moment later, the destroyer was already approaching Pluto. But it encountered a chaotic asteroid belt.
As always, the fusion engine needs to be cooled for 6 hours.
"Wang Buan, is that you?" came the excited call of Jupiter's base from the communicator.
"Report Jupiter! it's us!" He Chenghua hurriedly replied.
"Welcome home. ”
"Thank you. ”
He Chenghua couldn't be excited.
Now, the home of human beings is no longer limited to the earth.
The solar system has truly become the "home" of mankind. When many people refer to home, they are referring to the solar system.
To go home is to go back to the solar system.
To leave home is to leave the solar system.
Now, all the planets in the solar system have been deeply developed.
Different planets have different directions of development.
All kinds of people can find their own life between different planets.
The number of human beings has also increased to more than 20 billion. Among them, including 10 billion clones.
In fact, a lot of the worries about human cloning are unnecessary.
Clones are also people.
They are the same as natural persons.
Their feelings, skills, and consciousness can all be cultivated.
Their genes are more perfect, and they can master all kinds of knowledge and skills faster. They are very good blue-collar workers. It is the backbone of the manufacturing industry.
Tyrannosaurus Rex Industries employs a lot of clones.
White Feather Whale Technology also employs a lot of clones.
Clones' lifestyles, knowledge and skills, and behavioral norms are no different from those of natural people.
They also did not lose their fertility. It is also possible to reproduce the next generation.
Worried about not being able to get married?
Never mind.
Clone a husband. Be the most handsome and handsome. If you want Gu Tianle, you need Gu Tianle. If you want Li Yifeng, you want Li Yifeng.
Worried about not being able to get a wife?
Never mind.
Clone a wife.
If you want Tong Liya, you want Tong Liya. If you want Wang Likun, you need Wang Likun.
How handsome you want to be.
How beautiful you want to be.
From now on, there is no need to worry about love, weddings, wedding rooms, bride price red envelopes, etc.
Even, where ethics and morality are not constrained, it is possible to have a few clone husbands, or a large group of clone wives.
However, it is important to note that cloning humans also has feelings.
If the two parties can't get along well, then there is also a possibility of divorce.
In short, the appearance of clones has sparked a lot of sharp and heated discussions.
There are many people in favor.
There are also many opponents.
A hundred flowers bloom, a hundred schools of thought contend.
This is the most liberal era. It is also the most splendid era.
Wang Buan once again became the target of public criticism.
The Age of Discovery also began anew.
The advent of interstellar patrol ships has made it possible to explore the starry sky near the solar system.
The advent of starships has made it easy to explore the starry sky around the solar system. Adventurers can discover more planets.
The direction that Wang Bu'an explores is only one of them. is the direction in which Proxima Centauri is located.
So, what about the opposite direction? More directions?
Wang Buan discovered many planets.
Other adventurers have also discovered many planets.
Among them, the exploration fleet led by Liang Baimu has achieved remarkable results. They landed on a lot of planets.
Now, with the arrival of the Star Destroyer, stargazing has become even easier.
As long as you find the corresponding wormhole, it will be more than ten light years away in an instant!
Anyone can explore.
Anyone can walk through a wormhole.
It is conceivable that the tentacles of human beings will bloom to all corners of the galaxy in a very short time.
When the time comes, the invasion of civilization seems inevitable.
Civilizations of the lower ranks must be affected.
The premise is ......
Plenty of destroyers!
The manufacture of destroyers requires the release of a large amount of capacity.
Wang Buan made a preliminary estimate. He can currently produce fifty thousand destroyers at the same time.
This number may seem like a lot. In fact, it is not enough.
How big is the Milky Way?
1 billion light-years in diameter!
1 billion!
1 billion!
Say the important thing three times.
The solar system to Proxima Centauri is only 4 light-years. Equivalent to 1/250 million of the diameter of the Milky Way.
How many destroyers do you have to produce to meet the needs of interstellar navigation?
More industrial zones must be applied.
Production capacity must be expanded.
Obviously, this is what shockwaves are happy to hear.
For Wang Buan's request, Shockwave is generously satisfied!
Soon, the production capacity of destroyers was increased to about 100,000 units. But it's still not enough. There is still a need to continue to improve.
In other words, more planets are needed. One Wang Jianxing is not enough.
Jing Kexing? Yes.
Yes.
Bai Qixing? Yes.
Didn't say anything, continue to expand production capacity.
Consume all accumulated Faith points. until there is no faith left.
Finally, the production capacity of destroyers was expanded to about 250,000 units.
In other words, in one construction cycle, 250,000 destroyers can be produced.
If you use it conservatively, you should be fine.
"Chief Engineer Wang, Jupiter has arrived. ”
"Go down. ”
Wang Buan really takes the ship as his home.
He was inside the destroyer and had his own private space.
It's not a matter of a few bedrooms. It's a separate world. There are also at least a few square kilometers.
The length of the destroyer is 400 km, and the width is more than 10 km. How big do you think it is? It's a vast space that can accommodate a kingdom.
With no space fighters and mechs stationed, it always feels like something is missing.
So, let them in?
It doesn't seem necessary......
Now there is no fighting at all.
For the time being, the galaxy is very peaceful.
The appearance of destroyers means that there must be no opponents in the galaxy.
Unless it's leaving the galaxy and going to another galaxy to fight.
So, is it possible?
Then it depends on the arrangement of the Transformers.
Of course Wang Buan is willing.
It's a pity that others don't look down on it.
Transformers don't feel that humans have any fighting power at all.
In their eyes, cellular organisms are very fragile. In high-level battles, it's useless at all!
For now, let's obediently be a man with my tail between my legs!
