Send out all the ocean-going carriers and gather as many exploration fleets as possible.

Some of the previous exploration fleets did not return to port at all, so they continued to set off directly.

The exploration fleet prepared by the mainland, after receiving the order, also immediately set off in three directions.

For the N Command, which has just entered the ocean, ocean exploration is a very convenient way to accumulate credit, and there is almost no danger except for tiredness.

There were already a large number of commanders and ship mothers, who were very enthusiastic to participate in it.

In addition, a while ago, the trade of the Northern Islands, the ordinary ship girls and commanders here, and even the civilian organizations and teams, have upgraded their equipment again.

Their emotions were now even higher, and they were happily packing up and heading in directions that might mean lucrative feats at their fingertips.

However, there are also some people who have chosen a completely different direction.

Commander Julian Fawkes, a member of Otilia Essex's exploration fleet that she met by chance with the Mufeng fleet in the Space Island Islands 45 days ago, has just returned from the ocean with her shipwives.

On the way back to the station, Fox's flagship Phyllis Ticonderoga Essex asked rather puzzled

"Julian, it doesn't seem that our luck is very good this time, and in the end, we only gained a soul core, so we really don't continue to participate in the exploration of the fleet?"

Fawkes shook his head

"You can't work all the time, you need to rest, you have to do your best when you fight, and you have to be distracted when you rest, this has always been the philosophy of our team.

"This recent ocean exploration, because I encountered a fleet from the north, the mission time has already exceeded the standard, and now we must take a good rest and adjust."

Ticonderoga said with a shrug

"I know, but isn't it because this time the harvest is a little less, so we want to participate in one more mission and earn back what we want."

Hearing this, Fawkes subconsciously reached out and twisted the curly hair on his forehead

"Since we encountered a fleet from the north more than a month ago, our luck has been declining together, and our exploration since then has not yielded much success.

"That core was found before this, and I haven't gained anything since then, and although I have enough points to redeem for another core now, my luck hasn't recovered yet.

"We need to take a break now...... Relax, everyone...... I'll talk about ...... later."

Ticonderoga nodded slowly.

After the group returned to the station, Fawkes told the other shipwives to rest first, and took Ticonderoga to the construction center himself.

Fawkes showed his ID, paid for the resources, and entered the construction hall.

There are not many people here, and most of the time there are idle machines.

Fawkes picked out a set of machines, put his core in it, and prayed with his eyes closed before pressing the start button extra seriously.

"Ship soul core detected...... Core dissolution ...... in progress

"Dissolution complete...... Identifying soul information ......"

"Identifying success, injecting resources ......"

"After the injection is completed, a total of 500 units of primordial matter and 800 units of active energy are consumed."

"Construction begins...... Estimated time 6 hours! ”

Looking at this time, Fawkes and Ticonderoga's eyes widened instantly.

Ticonderoga muttered subconsciously

"Look at the ratio of resources, this is an aircraft carrier."

Fawkes blinked

"The amount of resources consumed and the length of time are unprecedented, and according to past experience, the construction time is directly related to the displacement of the hull.

"6 hours, which is basically equal to a displacement of about 60,000 tons, an aircraft carrier ...... 60,000 tons"

Ticonderoga was stunned

"That's almost twice as much as mine, how can this ......"

Fox raised an eyebrow

"This ...... This may be my last luck...... This core is the ...... we harvested before we met the northern fleet again."

Fox and Ticonderoga, with extreme nervousness and anticipation, waited in the construction center for six hours until dark.

Fawkes' hair was about to fall out, and he finally waited for the countdown to end.

With some trembling, he pressed the open button, the hatch went up, and a tall woman, looking at her surroundings, strode out and came to Fawkes

"The Midway-class aircraft carrier USS Midway came to support, how is the battle going now? Did I catch up? ”

Fawkes didn't know what she was talking about, only that he had never heard the name before

"Midway...... Welcome...... You're welcome ......."

Midway nodded slightly

"Yes, my commander, is there still a fight?"

Fawkes shook his head dryly

"We ...... We're probably going to have to take a little break lately to recharge our batteries......"

Midway blinked

"Hah...... Sure enough, it's late, okay...... Please advise me in the future......"

Fawkes and Ticonderoga happily returned to the station with Midway, went to the dining room, and arranged accommodation for them.

Then he asked Midway to open the ship's outfit and study it with the Condello family.

Confirming the hull of the Midway, the Biessex class has been enlarged a large circle as a whole, but it is still through the deck, and it needs an overall rebuild before it can use jet fighters.

And Midway is a brand new aircraft carrier, and the old modification plan cannot be copied and needs to be studied separately.

With this in mind, Fawkes asked the Ticondero family to rest with Midway and go home on their own.

As soon as Fox entered, he was hugged by his mother

"Julian, my darling, you're finally back, you miss your mother......"

Fawkes nodded

"Mom, I'm back, where's my dad? Are you at home now? ”

Mother Fox shook her head and sighed, saying with complaint and distress in her tone

"Old Mr. Fox has been very busy lately, and I heard that there are some big scientific research projects, and he often comes back in the middle of the night, and everyone has lost a lot of weight......"

Fox was a little surprised, his father was a scientific researcher, or a physicist, although he usually had research, but he was busy losing weight, and it never happened

"What is the project?"

Mother Fox shook her head

"Your dad said it was the highest level of secrecy, and his closest wife and children can't tell him, so don't ask, don't trouble him......"

Fawkes nodded thoughtfully

"Then I won't ask, let's talk about my business, I built it today and got a 60,000-ton aircraft carrier.

"It's a brand new ship that has never been seen before, and I want my dad to help me see how to design a renovation plan."

Mother Fox was also taken aback when she heard this

"Baby, you're telling the truth? A 60,000-ton aircraft carrier mother? That's heavier than Saratoga! ”

Fawkes nodded earnestly

"Yes, Mom, this is an unprecedented ship, so the hull transformation has to be redesigned, so I need Dad's help.

"Of course, after this plan is completed, others will build aircraft carriers of the same level in the future, and the plan can be sold to make money."

Mother Fox thought for a moment

"Wait a minute, I'll give him a call and ask him to see if he can take a leave of absence......"
