Chapter 351: Ice Fortress
Dark and cold space.
After Michau left the meteorite area, he ran the small warp engine on the mecha with all his might, and flew towards a dark star field.
In the Starlit Lands, warp speed technology was not developed, and more than 50 years ago, the Dark Shura Empire did not have this technology, until they discovered the Earth Federation, and they did not obtain this technology.
The small warp engine, combined with the small quantum engine, can help the mech sail safely and quickly in the starlit land, and today, fast maneuvering has become a strategic advantage of the Dark Shura Empire.
After about 3 minutes of flying forward at 10 times the warp speed, Michau turned off the warp engine and began to slow down, and after about half an hour, a solid planet with a diameter of more than 8,000 kilometers appeared in front of him.
This is the planet of the exiles: the Ice Abyss.
The icy abyss planet is surrounded by a thick atmosphere. Most of this atmosphere is chemically stable nitrogen, another 5% is carbon dioxide, 1% oxygen, and the remaining 0.5% is various rare gases.
Because the stars are largely obscured by the golden sky, even on the sunny side of the planet, the light is still very dim, even at noon, the ground light is the same as the golden sky at four o'clock in the morning, and the stars in the sky look only as big as a grain of white rice.
The temperature on the surface of the planet is also very low, below zero all year round, the water on the surface is basically frozen, and the cold wind howls and can freeze to death anyone trying to enter it in just a few minutes.
Mi Xiu controlled the mech and rushed headlong into the atmosphere, and after he flew in the atmosphere for about half an hour, a huge circular valley appeared in front of him, surrounded by a ring of signal lights, which was the entrance to the exiled dungeon: the Frost Fortress.
The situation is not the same between the exiles and the dungeons in Kansas, where the dungeons are built for mining and exploitation, while the exiles build the Frost Fortress for survival.
There is almost no sunlight in the icy abyss, but the temperature inside the planet is not low, and by building a dungeon, you can draw survival energy from the underground.
In the dungeon of the Frost Keep, there are more than 1 million exiles.
Mi Xiu sent a signal to enter the dungeon, and about 10 seconds later, a circular entrance with a length of 100 meters and a width of 100 meters opened at the bottom of the circular valley, and after Mi Xiu entered it, the crack closed again.
'Wow~'
In the sound of air currents, the air mixed with various breaths filled the space around Mixiu's body, and at the same time, the ground where he was standing began to sink slowly, and after about 10 minutes, Mixiu felt a 'boom' sound from the ground, and then the door in front of him opened, revealing a spacious and bright underground space.
'Ka Rub ~ T Ka Rub ~'
Mi Xiu put away his mecha and strode into it, and the two guards in red and white uniforms standing by the gate immediately raised their heads and saluted Mi Xiu, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Chief! ”
Mi Xiu nodded slightly, his unbelievably strong body and spirit, coupled with his unrivaled mecha, he easily took command of the Frost Fortress, and he is now the recognized leader of thousands of exiles in the Ice Abyss.
After walking a few steps, a middle-aged man walked up, this person held a smart notebook in his hand, and said, "Chief, our mecha production has encountered problems again. ”
This is the Chief Mechanical Engineer in the Human Frost Fortress, named Lu Lin.
Mi Xiu frowned slightly: "Say." ”
After he took control of the exiled dungeon, he found that the dungeon's technological foundation was quite good, and many places were unique, but he was also quite dissatisfied with the force system of the base, so he came up with the idea of building a mecha.
Mixiu has a decisive personality and is already the leader of the Frost Fortress, so when he has an idea, he immediately puts it into practice, and as of today, the mecha project has been about 10 days old.
Originally, he thought that the fortress should be able to produce usable mechs quickly, but by now, he had realized that things were far from that simple.
These self-proclaimed godlike exiles have no idea of mech combat, and the mechs that the Mechanical Engineer in the fortress has modified from his Dark Knight are useless.
First of all, the mecha is not good, the quality problem is very serious, and there are many fatal flaws. The second is that pilots are not good, there are no fighters in the base who can drive mechas, even if some people can fly mechas, their physical fitness is too poor. As a result, after the fighters use the new mech, their combat effectiveness is almost equal to zero, and they are even worse than piloting a battleship.
By now, Mi Xiu had begun to doubt the viability of his mecha strategy.
He is the top warrior of the apocalypse, this frown, the atmosphere around him suddenly became extremely depressing, Lu Lin's body trembled suddenly, and his figure became more and more slender: "Chief, it's like this, your request is to be able to load the space propulsion engine of the battleship into the mecha, but we found that this is an impossible task." The battleship engine is too big, and the mech you are talking about is too small to equip no matter how it is modified. What's more, the battleship engine must be powered by a spiral fusion energy core, which is also quite large......"
"Enough!"
Mi Xiu couldn't listen anymore, what he saw from this middle-aged man's face was a thick suspicion, and he said a lot of reasons, in the final analysis, it was because he didn't believe that mecha could be used in battle, if it weren't for the fact that he himself had a working mecha, this guy didn't believe in the existence of combat mechs at all.
Mi Xiu suppressed the evil fire that had accumulated in his heart and said, "My dark knight has shown that mecha is viable, what you have to do now is to find a way to solve the problem!" ”
Lu Lin winced in his defense: "Chief, I admit that your Dark Knight is a miracle, but such a great mechanical creation can only be controlled by you. Moreover, in the Dark Knight, many technologies are beyond our comprehension, and we will not be able to apply them in a short period of time. ”
This is indeed not the engineer's fault, the root cause is simply because the mecha is not adapted to the water and soil in the Golden Sky Domain, and Mixiu himself is only a warrior, not proficient in mechanics, and he lacks the means to solve the problem.
Mi Xiu is also a very smart person, so he naturally knows the reason, and after being silent for a while, he said, "I know all this. In this way, the mecha thing can be slowed down a little, but it can't be stopped, and the battleship building needs to be accelerated, I need fighters, the more the better! ”
Now it seems that what he originally thought was too simple, in a short period of time, the mecha was not suitable for the Hulai, but if he wanted to give up, he was unwilling, so he could only drag this project and leave a thought for himself.
As soon as this sentence came out, Lu Lin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, what he had been waiting for was this sentence, and then he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, leader, we must take out the available mecha as soon as possible." The construction of the battleship will not be left behind, but there is still a small problem. ”
"Say." Mi Xiu got into the luxury hovercar that came to greet him, and motioned for Lu Lin to sit next to him.
After both of them sat down in the car, Lu Lin said: "Chief, the resources in the Frost Fortress are running out, according to the current production rate of 30 battleships a day, all kinds of materials will soon be exhausted, and the pure geothermal energy will soon be unable to keep up with the supply......"
Mi Xiu waved his hand and interrupted Lu Lin's words again: "Don't tell me these details, you just need to tell me, how many warships can we produce with our various resources at most?" ”
"Up to 178 ships."
"So it can last for 6 days?"
Lu Lin nodded.
Mi Xiu asked again: "Then how did the base solve the problem when the resources were insufficient in the past?" ”
"We're going to have to slow down our production and wait for the mines to send in ore for refining, but if we do, we'll only be able to produce three warships a day, which is far from satisfying."
Mi Xiu nodded slightly, if he wants to attack the Golden Heaven Domain, he needs a huge force, according to his estimates, if he wants to break through the Golden Heaven Domain, even if he joins, he will need at least more than 2,000 small warships, but at present, there are only more than 200 warships in the fortress, and if it is produced at the rate of 3 warships per day, it will take 600 days.
Nearly two years is too long, you must know that the target is a supreme genius, and he is also a top mechanical engineer, and it is even possible to master the mystery of the rhodium magnetic engine.
Who knows what will happen during this time?
Mi Xiu glanced at Lu Lin, this guy knows the situation of the base well, and he is very easy to use: "You should have a solution, right?" ”
Lu Lin didn't disappoint him, and nodded: "There is indeed one." As you know, there is a large meteorite area 60 minutes away from the icy abyss, and there are many precious small mining stars in this meteorite area, as long as we can get control of these mining stars, we can greatly increase the speed of producing warships, but most of the mining stars are controlled by the Golden Sky Domain. ”
"I see." Mi Xiu nodded, it's nothing more than a word grab, this is no more common, the Dark Shura Kingdom is still fighting with the Aum Empire in order to compete for control of the Behemoth Star Domain.
Thinking of this, he asked, "What is the most valuable mine star for us at the moment?" ”
Lu Lin had already prepared: "It's this, it's called Ceres, which mainly produces high-energy crystals, which is the best material for making focused laser cannons, which is also our most scarce, and the current reserves are less than one ton, and only 100 high-energy laser cannons can be made." ”
Mi Xiu nodded: "I see." ”
It is impossible to capture Ceres by relying solely on the power of the exiles, but if you add him, it will be simple, he just needs to wait patiently, and when the two armies clash, he will pilot the mecha to raid the enemy fleet command, and then Ceres will definitely fall.
"You go and inform the commanders of the major fleets and let everyone go to the conference hall."
"Yes, Chief." Lu Lin hurriedly carried out the order.
..............
About 4 hours later, Zhang Yuan returned to White Deer City in the Golden Heavens, although he was extremely jealous of Mi Xiu's power in his heart, but on the surface it was as if nothing had happened, and after rushing up from the bottom of the cross-sea bridge, he still acted as a green worker, pruning the grass and trees in the green belt all the way.
Just wandering back to Emily's apartment, more than two hours passed.
He opened the door and entered, and suddenly a commotion came to his face, and when he looked at the movement, he saw that Emily and the four were still fighting endlessly in the interstellar God of War game.
Zhang Yuan didn't bother, returned to the corner of the apartment hall alone, took out his brain, and continued to design the space power engine of the new structure.
He is not that Mi Xiu's opponent now, the opponent's mecha has a crushing advantage, whether it is mobility or attack power, it crushes the White Angel mecha, but Mi Xiu has not yet broken through the ability of the Golden Sky Domain, and this is his biggest opportunity.
"In terms of maneuverability, as long as I improve the power engine, I can be on par with the other party, which is not very difficult. In terms of attack and defense, it needs to rely on the rhodium magnetic engine, and it is troublesome to improve this aspect. ”
The rhodium magnetic engine performance of the White Angel mecha is in the middle and upper part of the apocalypse, and the performance of the rhodium magnetic engine of that Mi Xiu's mecha should be at the peak of the apocalypse, and it is only one line away from breaking through to the God of War level, once it breaks out, the White Angel mecha can only escape.
Zhang Yuan was designing the engine while thinking about countermeasures, and after about half an hour, he figured it out: "This Mi Xiu, I can't kill him in a short time, but it doesn't matter, as long as I drive the mecha faster than him." ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan began to think about how to improve the various maneuvering performance of the White Angel mecha, not only combat maneuvers, long-distance running, ultra-long-distance navigation in space, but also the endurance must be improved as much as possible.
When he was conceiving, the virtual cockpit door not far away suddenly opened, and Fang Ming jumped out of it with an excited face, looking up to the sky and laughing: "Win!" Haha, I thought the Tigers were so powerful, but that's it. ”
