Chapter 152
"The last vajra entered the fold to confirm that it had left."
"So that's why you let that vajra go?"
"That's right, the other party can judge that it is a sapient creature that can communicate, and if the other party continues to attack when the other party gives up the battle, it is a violation of the Galactic Treaty. But we don't have the means to communicate with Vajra properly for the time being, and we don't have a secure restraint device. You can only let the other person leave. The captain of the fighter squadron, who was directing the battle on the spot, answered the question of the commander-in-chief.
"Are you sure they're not hostile?" The Grand Commander looked at Ian, who was sitting beside him.
"Confirmed, they're doing a hostage rescue operation. After confirming that Shirley Lou was not of her own kind and that she was not harmed, there was no desire to continue the rescue operation. ”
"Will they come for revenge because their companions have been killed?"
"No, although they have individual consciousness, on the whole, they are dominated by collective consciousness and the will of the queen. Individual's words...... Probably like hairs and nails? "It's hard for Ian to describe these worldviews of Vajra." They have a strange attitude towards individuals...... If an individual is imprisoned and sends a signal for help, they will do whatever it takes to rescue the individual, as in this case, sacrificing hundreds of individuals to rescue Shirley Lu. However, they are extremely indifferent to the dead individuals. They don't hate humans just because they fought them. It doesn't even care about the death of these individuals, according to it...... In the vajra collective, even if it is just a cluster in this galaxy, tens of millions of individuals die every second, and tens of millions of individuals are born at the same time. If you pay too much attention to the death of the individual, Vajra doesn't have to do anything, just go all over the world to seek revenge. ”
"Is that good news? Or is it bad news? "The Grand Commander understood what Ian meant." What about the possibility of coexistence with Vajra? Just like the original demon and macross 7. ”
"Not clear, but hopeful. If coexistence is to be achieved, it may be necessary to use the power of the MACROSS Frontier. Whether it is the existence of the code name q1 or LAI's fold quartz technology, it is necessary to communicate vajra. ”
"Well, what about the possibility of abducting the code name Q1 to Frontier?"
"It's hard to say. According to the available information, Orchid Lee is under the protection of SMS, and his guardian is a sister control. Once Orchid goes missing, he'll definitely make a big deal out of it.
His immediate subordinate is LAI's eldest son, and I'm not sure if our operations can be fooled by LAI's surveillance technology. ”
Galaxy's head of intelligence replied directly. It was clear that he had thought about it.
"Already identified?" The Grand Commander raised an eyebrow.
"There are only a few people to be suspected." The Minister of Intelligence spread his hands. "Lived in Gallia4, had type V infection, was alive, had an older brother, and her brother was Brera Stein. Just these four conditions can narrow down the candidate to one person. ”
“……… Isn't it good for them to just write their names? It's not a matter of taking off your pants and farting. Also, did they find out their purpose? ”
"Found it. It's the logic of that set of movies again, to live forever and rule the universe. ”
The "traditional Hollywood plot ......" is also a little helpless." Contact the Frontier government, we need their support. ”
"Yes."
"If you contact them directly, you might give them half of the planet that belongs to Galaxy at your fingertips."
Ian stood up and prepared to leave.
"Only what is in hand is real, and the future benefits are only false. Besides, a planet has enough resources for 300 million people to live without limits. There are only 10 million crickets in the Galaxy Ship Regiment, and it will take nearly a century to give birth to 300 million people without doing anything.
Besides, if they can coexist with Vajra, they must have other habitable planets on their hands. If the population reaches the limit of the planet's carrying capacity, just find another one. ”
"Well-reasoned and convincing."
Ian returns to the ship and continues his research on new technologies. It wasn't until two days later that Linda sent him a message that they had arrived in the local universe.
"Wait for me there, I'll pick you up." Ian confirmed the coordinates and walked out of the lab and onto the bridge. "Send an out-of-formation request to air traffic control."
"Out of the permit confirmed, the enterprise track changed." K2 confirms the signal. The hull of the Enterprise slowly turned, leaving the formation of the Galaxy ship group at a slight speed. Then it turned into a streamer and entered the speed of light.
"Has that faster-than-light engine technology been resolved?" The Commander watched as the Enterprise entered the faster-than-light real-time footage.
"Not yet, Galaxy's corporate lab is working hard to crack the technology. However, according to the judgment of the LL Research Office, even if the technical analysis is successful, it will take more than 30 years for localized production to improve the basic technology. Our basic technology is not compatible with this faster-than-light engine, both in terms of materials and machining accuracy. However, the ancient factories of the Jetratti people may have been able to produce it. ”
“???? Can an ancient factory produce a modern factory? The Grand Commander looked back at his assistant.
"The Jetratites' war with the primordial demons thousands of years ago, as well as their own civil wars, has lost a lot of technology."
"What about the other technologies?"
"The phase cannon is being manufactured as a prototype, which is not much different from our current technical level. The Proton Torpedo Armament Department is discussing, and the Armament Department considers the Proton Torpedo to be a bit of a surplus of firepower. The turbolaser cannon is not technically difficult, but its power is seriously reduced because the output power of the power furnace is not enough. ”
"Too much power?"
"The proton torpedo, the warhead is a hundred grams of antimatter, and the warhead volume is about the same as the conventional air-to-air missiles in service. The power is similar to that of the reactor bombs in active service with the United Army. However, compared with the reaction bomb, the proton torpedo is more concentrated, and the explosion range is only more than 100 meters, and the ultra-high temperature range generated by the explosion is limited to the sphere with a radius of more than 60 meters. The technical staff of the LL company believed that it was the position of binding antimatter that limited the annihilation reaction. ”
"What about pollution?"
"Cleaner than a reaction bomb."
"What about the cost?"
"The cost of trial production is slightly higher than that of a reactive bomb and lower than that of a space devourer. The cost of mass production is expected to be about three times that of MDE warheads for small missiles. ”
"Sounds ...... Very affordable. ”
"Indeed, so the Ministry of Armament and the military are concerned that this will upset the balance of force between us and the new unified government of Earth. It would not be cost-effective to arouse the fear of the new unified government before reaching a strategic cooperation with VAJRA. ”
"I see. Secretly produce and hoard 10,000 pieces in a secret factory as an emergency reserve for the ace troops. ”
The enterprise number is out of hyperspace. The 3-kilometer-long hull suddenly appeared diagonally above Ptolemy.
"Linda, are you sure this is Ian's ship?" The emperor swallowed. The triangular hull of the 3-kilometer-long and nearly 1.2-kilometer-wide hull suddenly appeared at a distance of less than 500 meters above the hull, and the visual effect was still amazing.
"This is...... Imperial? "Lasse has seen a little bit of Star Wars.
"No, it's a hunter, modified."
"Call Ptolemy, Linda? Back. ”
"Honey, is it your ship?"
"That's right. Releasing the surface inertial restraint, I towed Ptolemy into the hangar. ”
Pulled by the traction beam, Ptolemy slowly moved towards the hangar. After the hull was fully entered the hangar, twelve fixed robotic arms held Ptolemy in place. The three personnel connections were connected to Ptolemy's personnel entrances and exits.
"Wow...... It's really all here......" Ian and Pademi waited at the entrance, and more than twenty people came out of the personnel passage.
Led by Linda, the emperor and Milena. He was followed by five Gundam pilots including Tieria and the family members of the pilots such as Pilis. Behind them are Yamato, Li Fengzi, these subordinates and friends. At the back are several curious ELS humanoids.
Ian only felt ...... It's really more convenient to die once......
Because...... He felt that Smith and Pademi behind him had already met the eyes of Linda and the emperor opposite.
He even felt the air twist...... Yi An looked at it and didn't feel wrong. The air did distort. Even from time to time, lightning flashes appear out of thin air.
Among the four of them, the psionic energy emitted by Linda and the Emperor, who had turned into subspace demons, collided with the Force emitted by Pademi and Smith, who were Jedi knights, and even slightly distorted the space.
In Ian's perception, Padme and Smith's hands were slowly reaching for the lightsabers at their waists, while Linda and the Emperor, the armor and two-handed heavy swords issued by the subspace on their bodies loomed.
Then the pressure of the four was all on Ian.
The cold sweat on Ian's forehead slowly oozed out, and his face became more and more bitter. He was even seriously considering whether he could beat the four sisters joining forces.
The Force told himself...... I can't beat it, I'm hopeless, wait for death.
Why is the lord awesome? In addition to the fact that his own father is the Force itself, his own mother's talent is also invincible.
And that poor bit of psionic energy? was suppressed by Linda and the emperor. The Emperor, who had been in the subspace battlefield for several years, was far superior to Ian in terms of psionic strength.
Suddenly, the pressure on Ian's body lightened, and the four sisters all smiled, Linda and the Emperor smiled and walked past Ian, carrying Padme and Smith to chat intimately and leave.
“???” Ian was confused, did this count as surviving?
Milena looked at Ian's expression for the rest of her life, and sighed helplessly, how did her father, a straight man of steel, behave in his sister?
patted his father's federation, and dragged Tieria to chase his future four mothers.
"Survived......" Ian let out a long breath. I didn't expect you all to come, and I thought I had to go back and call someone first...... Forget that, I'll take you on a walk around the ship first. ”
Ian led a group of people behind him to the upper residential area.
"I'll name this ship Enterprise. The prototype is the Chasseur-class of the Quart-powered shipyard, and of course this design has been robbed by my company over there. After three large-scale renovations, the length has been enlarged from the original 1.7 kilometers to 3 kilometers, and it is equipped with a mini Death Star cannon. The main armament is five twin giant turbo laser cannons, 64 quadruple heavy turbo laser cannons, and 320 phase gun arrays. The ship is equipped with 6,000 fighter robots of various types and 100,000 folding combat robots. ”
“!!!!” The crowd in the back was shocked.
"Ian-san, what have you been to in the past few years?! To have so many combat robots on hand, and to equip such a frantic battleship? Lyle couldn't hold back and asked directly.
"Oh, the battleship's words are a personal interest. Although high-performance battleships saved me several times. The idea that there is too much spare space on the ship, and that there is too much empty space on the ship, and that there is also an empty space, has piled up all the places that can be stacked with combat robots. ”
"Oh......"
"Well, it's time to get to the settlement. The core residential area is five hundred meters long, about one kilometer wide and twenty meters high, divided into four floors, at the bottom of the bridge building. One hundred meters down is the core area, which is the traditional core CIC. The core residential area has three areas, a recreation area, a lodging area and an entertainment area.
The recreation area has twelve spas, a full-size swimming pool, a sandy beach, a sun promenade and a restaurant.
The entertainment area has meditation rooms, practice rooms, dojos, cinemas, game halls, etc. ”
"Wait...... Ian-san, isn't this a battleship? Q: What will there be a hot spring and a game hall? ”
"Well...... I usually think of the ship as an armed cruise ship, and there is also an advanced technology laboratory in Gnaku. All of them are counted in this ship, and there is no way to classify them at all.
The three-kilometer-long ship is supposed to be a dreadnought on the Star Wars side. But this ship is equipped with an eclipse-class mini-Death Star cannon, and has the strength to shatter the star with one shot. Taken together, this ship is somewhere between a super Star Destroyer and a dreadnought. Eventually, on the Starship Encyclopedia, the ship was called the Small Super Star Destroyer. It is commonly known as SSSD (Small Super Star Destroyer). ”
"It's all in its own right...... Anyway, you said you were going back to find someone, did you run into some trouble? ”
"It's not particularly troublesome, just make a backup plan." Ian walked ahead. "When I met a race that wasn't very easy to communicate with, I needed a moment to talk to them in 00Q."
Everyone looked at the humanoid figure of ELS who followed Grandma Liu into the Grand View Garden.
Then he raised an eyebrow at Ian, signaling that they were in trouble?
"It's similar to the trouble of fighting when ELS mastered human technology."
Everyone recalled the desperate dialogue battle against ELS back then, and all of them smiled reluctantly.
"So terrible?" Hallelujah whispered.
"And then these creatures are all over the galaxy, and there are at least trillion of them."
"That's terrible." I don't really want to start a conversation in the middle of a hail of bullets.
"It has an unknown number of bio destroyers of about 300 meters, a bio heavy artillery carrier of about 500 meters, and a bio battleship of about 2 km."
“……”
All...... Speechless.
"So Ian...... Do you hate that we've been too comfortable lately, come and practice us? Li Fengzi finally summed it up.
"You sent it yourself."
