The third district has distinctive industrial characteristics, starting from entering the city, everywhere shows the sense of power and the times of energy civilization, the shape of the buildings on both sides, the rows of chimneys, so that Zhou Xing has a feeling of traveling back to the old industrial base of the last century, especially the smell of the air, even more so.

A pair of metal doors separated from the left and right are the standard configuration of the shops here, with old patina traces, mottled traces are easily reminiscent of the old-fashioned wall clock of the last century at home, and the streets are all paved with barbed wire, which is fixed to the main body by shelves, and the main body is connected to the main star, from the overall point of view, this is like a giant metal tree growing in the universe, and the planets are like fruits hanging on it.

Walking on the barbed wire, the trembling feeling makes people feel bottomless, once you step into the air, there is an abyss below.

The people on the street can only be described as strange, but the most are metal-based life, and Zhou Xing's mechanical armor has a feeling of returning home.

The design is also more user-friendly, and there is a floor plan of this floor at the entrance. Zhou Xing took a look at it, and this size is about to catch up with a province in China.

If you talk about legs, you may not be able to rush back next year.

"Go here, it's the biggest one in the neighborhood!" Zorro said, pointing to the nearest large store.

Afana Power Trading Center, listening to the name is atmospheric enough, in the center of all double-door stores, the appearance of such a six-door store can be regarded as standing out from the crowd. In particular, the set of spotlights in front of the door not only illuminates the dim streets, but also projects the scene of various engines overburning in space.

There are no intelligent beings in the store, and all the people in charge of reception are robots, and the anthropomorphic reaction makes it difficult to tell whether these are intelligent beings or not.

"We plan to buy a few cruiser-class thrusters and anti-gravity devices, is there anything to introduce?" Zorro asked with a familiar approach.

This cruiser is not the Ticon-class on Earth, but a real space battleship, with tonnage ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of tons.

Swish!

As soon as the voice fell, a light curtain popped up in front of the robot, listing rows of information on it, followed by product thumbnails.

A similar form immediately popped up on Zhou Xing's screen, with translated information on it.

"Kiro-class, 25,000 tons of thrust, entry-level cruiser particle RF engine, ninety percent new, unit price of five million liraka!"

"Huying-level, with a thrust of 70,000 tons and a unit price of 12.5 million liraka. ”

“……”

"Canglong level, thrust 30 million tons, unit price ......" The zero in the unit price column is already beyond the table, and Zhou Xing is not in the mood to count, this gear is not what they can use at all.

Zorro looked at it, and the three of them got together to discuss, and selected the Kiro class as the thruster for the civilian spacecraft, and the Huying class as the power source for the planned cruiser hull.

As for the anti-gravity device, this thing is not systematic, and they need to go down and pick it themselves.

"Can you inspect the goods?" asked Zorro.

These are second-hand goods, and they are not responsible for leaving the counter, so don't think about any after-sales services.

"Yes!"

That's what the machine is good about, no nonsense, and took the three of them straight to the back elevator.

To Zhou Xing's surprise, the elevator was not up and down like on the earth, the robot handed Zhou Xing a handle-type thing and asked him to hold it tightly, and before Zhou Xing could react, a layer of light curtain fell outside, completely isolating the car.

Zhou Xing was surprised to find that the bodies of the three people on the opposite side gradually blurred, turning into a streamer and disappearing.

Quantum transmission!

And it's the quantum transmission of large entities!

When he opened his eyes again, Zhou Xing felt a slight dizziness, the light outside was a lot darker, and the mecha helmet automatically turned on the visual enhancement function, and the vision in front of him suddenly became clear.

Zhou Xing was facing a metal wall, which should be the same material as the door of the store, but it was more corroded.

I don't know how high the metal wall is, and when you look down from below, you can only see a glimmer of light, and the light falls through the cracks, barely illuminating everything.

There was a constant roar in the distance, accompanied by a faint glow, and occasionally blue light could be seen rising into the sky, which should be someone else in the test.

"This way, please!"

The robot made a gesture of please, walked to the metal wall next to it, opened the console located on the side, and with a rumbling sound, a door half a mountain high slowly opened.

Inside the door is a huge workshop, with three giant transport trucks nearly 100 meters long and like reptiles, cooperating to transport the two engines that have just been selected out.

Zhou Xing has never been in the engine of the ship, and he has seen a lot of airplanes, but compared to the one in front of him, it is really a small thing.

The size of the Kiro-class engine has reached the size of a small destroyer, which is not a structure, but a precision engine component, looking at the introduction, the assembly accuracy even reaches the nanometer level, not to mention higher parts accuracy.

The appearance of the engine, in addition to some pipes and heat sinks, only a few fixed focal points and handles, almost no part status, but the introduction clearly writes that the number of parts of this machine alone is hundreds of millions, I really don't know how it was designed.

As for the Huying level, which will be bigger in the back, not to mention. Zhou Xing suddenly had an idea, if he could look at the Canglong level, what kind of shocking scene would it be.

In the workshop, there are test benches prepared for engine testing, which are completely made of steel skeletons, mounted on slide rails, in addition to fixing the engine, there are various sensors, and the parameters are displayed on the test screen. Underneath the skeleton, there is also a complex set of pipelines, which is the engine starting system, which provides energy guarantee for the test.

The lifting was done by a huge manipulator, which fixed the front and rear eight focal points, and the test bench rolled down the slide to the middle of the canyon.

Looking at the light of the test bench, there was a deeper gap in the middle of the canyon, and the light was too dim just now for Zhou Xing to notice.

When the test bench reached the gap, a crunching sound was heard, and the test bench carrying the entire engine turned 90 degrees to aim the engine nozzle at the abyss.

Call!

Loud voice!

The ground trembled, and the space was distorted by the strong changes, and the light flickered and dimmed.

In front of the screen, the data began to beat wildly, changing with the robot's operation.

For a long time, Zorro pouted dissatisfied, the power output of this unit was too unstable, and the nozzle inside was obviously scrapped and spelled out, and it was difficult to provide stable pressurization when the jet passed.

Some of these second-hand goods are dismantled and sold directly on the black market, and then circulated here, and some are assembled from scrapped parts, which are not visible in appearance, but the performance is very different.

The robot doesn't talk nonsense either, recalls the engine and replaces it with another one.

I have to say that this is definitely a boring job, in addition to the initial shock, the back is the same boring, the same repetitive action, sometimes the deafening roar can be heard clearly through the protective cover, it looks like the engine is going to fall apart at any time, and sometimes it is silent, making people wonder if it has started.

Even so, the time was still ridiculously long, so that Zhou Xing had to leave halfway, the so-called people are iron rice and steel, he, who is dragging his feet, is going to eat.
