With the help of Proxima Centauri, two auxiliary ships stored on an unknown planet were also sent back, and the engineers immediately began to upgrade and strengthen the fleet, after all, three years is not a long time, not a short time, and every minute and second should not be wasted.

In this battle, the Reaper fleet performed fairly well overall, but there were also quite a few problems.

The first is that the flight speed of the battleship is too slow, the speed of the Death is much slower than that of the eight-winged flying snake, which is a very dangerous thing, in the space battlefield, the flight speed of the battleship is even much more important than the defense, which must be improved.

The second is the problem of energy consumption too fast, the energy of the Reaper battleship is only enough for the main gun to carry out four rounds of salvos, and when the meteorological weapon is fired, it will even completely consume the energy of the battleship, and it does not even have the ability to protect itself, which Mu Chen cannot tolerate.

In fact, if the mother worm had sent another large insect like the eight-winged flying snake at that time, the Reaper fleet might even be wiped out, so it can be said that this victory was really a bit of a fluke, and God blessed......

There are also the two auxiliary ships of the Giant Whale and the Luban, which basically have no combat capability, and can only provide certain maintenance and supplies, if it were not for Mu Chen to arrange for them to hide away from the battlefield in advance, once they are discovered by the Zerg, I am afraid they will not even be able to escape.

The Grim Reaper's indomitable space carrier combat effectiveness is undoubted, but there are also things that Mu Chen is not very satisfied with, the auxiliary accessories are too fragile, just a round of incendiary bomb attacks, the navigation system and signal transmitter were completely destroyed, almost making the battleship blind and deaf, if it weren't for the guidance of the lucky compass, I'm afraid they would still be circling in space at this time.

In order to make the Reaper fleet more powerful, Mu Chen specially gathered all the senior officials and maintenance teams of the Space Force for a month-long discussion, brainstorming, discussing everyone's ideas, and finally drawing a battleship design drawing.

This battleship can no longer be called a combat ship, and it is probably more appropriate to call her a fortress.

The size is similar to the indomitable space carrier, but with reference to the planetary base of the Zerg, she is designed as a mobile base that can fly, with a length and width of more than 1000 kilometers, and each corner of the fortress can launch various weapons, and the powerful meteorological weapons are as many as 16, theoretically can quickly freeze 8 Zerg planetary bases into ice lumps, if you concentrate on shooting, it only takes 30 seconds to completely freeze an asteroid with a diameter of 2000 kilometers.

Battlestar can be loaded with 200,000 space fighters and millions of large drones or intelligent machine lions, and the maintenance function and supply function are all combined, which can be repaired while fighting, and as long as the injured fighter can fly back, it can replace parts and rejoin the battle in a very short time.

The energy pool of Battlestar has also been increased by 20, and the energy pools consumed by power and firepower are separated, and the energy is supplied by different energy pools, so as to avoid the danger caused by excessive energy consumption to the greatest extent.

The protective ability of the Battlestar has also been achieved to the extreme, the hull is completely composed of anti-corrosion materials, and there will be no more such a situation where the giant locust tears off the anti-corrosion coating, and the outer alloy armor is 10 meters thick, and it will not be too much of a problem if it hits an asteroid head-on, even if it is damaged, it will be quickly repaired by the memory metal mixed in the alloy armor.

Battlestar's thrusters have also been modified, embedded in the fortress's huge body, which minimizes the possibility of damage to the thrusters, and has also prepared backup thrusters, when the main thrusters are damaged, they can continue to maintain speed with the backup thrusters, and if necessary, the main thrusters and backup thrusters can be turned on at the same time, increasing the speed of the Battlestar to an astonishing level.

Mu Chen was once bitten by insects for ten years afraid of the well rope, the navigation system and signal transmitter directly installed 10 sets, the quality is not good, the quantity is used to make up, and the total 10 sets of auxiliary equipment are all broken.

This space fortress can even stuff a small space battleship directly into the belly, and can hold up to 100 small destroyer battleships with a length of no more than 1000 meters or 10 medium frigates with a length of 5000 meters.

This is a big killer for the swarm, which can minimize the casualty rate of the space flight force.

The interior of the Battlestar is like a luxuriously renovated edifice, opening up a special leisure and entertainment area for the crew to relax.

To avoid psychological problems during long space voyages, the crew can even play football here when they are not working, because there is a huge sports center in this area, and all kinds of sports fields are available, such as running marathons.

The entire fort could easily fit a million people, and the living space for each crew member was expanded considerably, so that there was no longer a need for three or five crew members to be crammed into a small room.

If the voyage is too long, the crew can also go into hibernation, sleep for half a year, wake up and recover for a few days before joining the battle.

Battlestar also has the most advanced space farm of the Star Group, a project that has finally succeeded after years of hard work, can create a complete and stable biosphere, the production of the space farm can meet the needs of the entire crew, and the rich output can also be preserved through vacuum technology in case of emergency.

From all aspects, this space fortress is much stronger than the previous Grim Reaper space carrier, but it may not be easy to make it, the chief engineer gritted his teeth and said that he would build the space star as much as possible within two years, and it is estimated that this gray-haired old man will not want to sleep peacefully in the past two years.

Fortunately, the construction of this Battlestar has the full support of the Earth Federation, and all members of the Earth Federation have seen the great benefits of defeating the Zerg.

The hearts of the people of the countries have stabilized a lot, the crime rate has dropped to an all-time low, and those who are a little more industrious can find a well-paid job in the battleship factory through their own efforts, enough to support their families.

And the capital predators also smelled some blood, "Cosmic Alliance" is a new word, if the Earth Federation can join in, it means that there will be a bigger market, sell their products to aliens, this kind of thing is emotional!

But if you want to join the Cosmic Alliance, you must first let other civilizations recognize the abilities of the earthlings, and as for how to make them recognize, defeating the Zerg army is a good choice.

So the capital giants waved the banknotes in their hands and rushed to the federal headquarters, fully supporting Mu Chen to build a space fortress, and invariably left a sentence: "If you don't have enough money, just say it, and you will build a space fortress if you are bankrupt!" ”

And the giants' behavior has also gained a lot of prestige, Mu Chen announced the financial support provided by the major giants as soon as possible, and the people rarely saw these vampires so generous, and they all sent praise and applause, so that these upper-class citizens who have been scolded by the poor for countless years have some sense of honor for the first time.

Then things went even smoother, Xingyu Group provided space farm technology for free? Then I will contract the manufacturing project of the Battlestar entertainment facility, and I will not charge a penny for the same thing.

You, a seller of alloy materials, actually gave away alloy armor worth two trillion star coins? Then I, a military industry tycoon, can't lag behind, first send 50 nuclear warheads to Battlestar, and pull away the particle beam cannon as soon as possible, so that Lao Tzu can make room for another batch.

As for several energy giants, they are also about to break through, why does Battlestar only use the energy pool you make, our company's newly developed products are smaller than yours in size, and the energy storage is larger, these 50 sets of Battlestar must be accepted, what is not used? Take it and sell scrap iron!

Capital giants also have a desire to compare, especially when they see that their competitors donate more than themselves, not to mention how awkward it is, isn't it money? Lao Tzu's family has saved capital for several generations, and the most important thing is money, and if a competitor dares to donate 1 billion star coins, Lao Tzu dares to add a zero behind it! The picture is a face-saving one!

During this period of time, the media is like the Chinese New Year, every day is happy, there are not too many news materials, just go to the federal information platform to extract some donation information, and come back with a high-quality headline.

With the support of major consortia, the Battlestar manufacturing project is simply rich, and the chief engineer even laughed and said that it was enough to build a Battlestar with pure gold and diamonds with so much money.

"Then build two first!" Mu Chen approved the manufacturing project of a space fortress with a stroke of his pen, but he is Han Xin's more troops, the better, as for the lack of crew, there is no need to worry about it at all, Alice's girl has been a little self-indulgent recently, that secret base is almost overcrowded, a full army of 3 million clones, I really don't understand why she is so insecure.

And these clones are quickly integrated into society, and most of them are good law-abiding citizens

There is no difference between them and humans at all, and there are even some clones who form a fairly harmonious family with humans.

Mu Chen thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was better not to announce the matter of cloning, otherwise I am afraid that there would still be a lot of trouble, and it would be good to grieve them for a while, and then think of a way to find a suitable time in the future.

Alice is very open to this matter, or she didn't think about revealing this secret at all, what she hopes most is that the clone can one day completely forget about her birth, and then fully integrate into this society and become a real human.

"As long as a thing is done, it is absolutely impossible to hide it forever, and one day the matter of human cloning will be leaked, and it is better to take the initiative to disclose it at the right time, so as to avoid some troubles and make the road of peaceful coexistence between clones and humans as smooth as possible." Mu Chen said to Alice seriously.

Alice thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I hope the people will appreciate the efforts of the clones for the solar system and accept our existence." ”

"There will be a day." Mu Chen said: "By the way, I haven't apologized to you yet, in this mission, the casualties of the clones are also very large, and at least 60,000 clones have died in the battle against the Zerg army......"

"I trust you, you won't deliberately send them to death." Alice shook her head.

"Then thank you, these clone warriors are also buried in the martyrs' cemetery, you can go and see if you have the chance, how can you say that you are also their parents."

"Aren't you the same? These clones also have your genetic samples in them, otherwise how could they all be good pilots. ”

Mu Chen was stunned, and glanced at the more than 3 million clones who were training outside: "It always feels a little strange that there are more than 3 million adult children inexplicably." ”

"Don't worry, it's just that the genes of your combat talent have been extracted, giving them a relatively high starting point, and the final extent depends on their own efforts and understanding, the genetic genes of cloned people are random, and they are not related to you." Alice explained with a smile.

"Go back and help me pick a few people with command ability, this time the Battlestar will inevitably need a large number of small warship captains, or clones are more reliable, it is too difficult for humans to cultivate a qualified space command talent." Mu Chen said regretfully.

"Wrap me!" Alice patted the plump on her chest and said confidently.

……

The manufacturing of Battlestar is on the right track, but Mu Chen can't be idle at all, and he doesn't even have time to eat with Laura, and when he gets home every day, the family has already rested.

But today Mu Chen deliberately took a day off, ready to accompany his girlfriend who had been neglected by him for a long time, and the two flew to an island in the center of the Pacific Ocean with the Tempest, away from people and the world, emptying their brains, thinking about nothing, and not being disturbed by the outside world, only each other in their eyes......

This small island is located near Hawaii, but the area is much smaller, not even 1 square kilometer, there are only a few coconut trees on the island, anyone who crashes and falls on this island is afraid that it will be miserable, the fresh water problem alone is enough for him to drink a pot, and if he wants to survive in the wilderness, unless there is a system against the sky.

However, Mu Chen had already prepared, and prepared a lot of water and food on the Tempest, and sat under the parasol with Laura in his arms to eat skewers and enjoy this rare and comfortable time.

"Honey, we want a baby, right?" Laura leaned into Mu Chen's ear and whispered.

"Hey, why did you suddenly mention this?" Mu Chen asked curiously.

"I just think that if I have a child, I will have something to do when you are busy......" Laura said with a red face.

"I'm sorry I haven't been with you during this time." Mu Chen said guiltily.

"It's okay, I didn't blame you, that's what you have to do." Laura lay in Mu Chen's arms and said, "However, I am 25 years old this year, and I will become an old woman if I don't have children......"

Laura is 6 years older than Mu Chen, and this age gap will always give her a sense of crisis that she is about to get old.

"Fool, you're forever 18 years old in my eyes." Mu Chen stretched out his hand to tear off the last restraints on Laura's body and smashed Huanglong directly......
