Chapter 10: An Unexpected Discovery (1)
A few minutes later, Xia Houlin hung up. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info It turned out that the situation of the latest experimental weapons was about the development of the latest weapons, and the UNSC side will be working on the development of the latest weapons at a space test site somewhere in the afternoon.
Laxis is the creator of this weapon, so she specially invited Xia Houlin and Qiu Yue to go to the test site to watch the first test firing of the new weapon.
Seeing that it was such a thing, Xiahou Lin and Qiu Yue immediately agreed. After all, they hadn't seen Laxise for a long time, and now they were taking advantage of this opportunity to have a good exchange of recent situations.
"When are we going to go?" Qiu Yue looked at Xia Houlin and asked, for the new weapon developed by Laxis, a sense of curiosity rose in her heart at this moment.
After all, if you can get the UNSC to inform the two of you, I'm afraid that this weapon is a very important new weapon, and it can even affect the next battle situation.
"At two o'clock in the afternoon, it's three hours before leaving. It's a pity that the Precursor ruins in the Reach Star can't be easily approached, otherwise we really want to go in and see what's inside? Xiahoulin suddenly talked about this, because according to the information, there is a Precursor relic in the Minazhite Mountain of Zhiyuanxing. There must be some advanced technology in it, or information about the forerunners.
Unfortunately, Minazhit Hill is currently a secret base of the Military Intelligence Agency, and it is very difficult to get close to it. Even with the equipment that Xiahou Lin and the others have now, it is obviously impossible to sneak into it without knowing it.
Moreover, the Xiahoulin people could not inform the UNSC side that there were Precursor relics there, and if they did, the probability of being suspected by the other party was 100%.
"There's no way around it, who called it the base camp of the MIA. It's better not to risk it, the remains of the Precursors may be found elsewhere anyway. And we have also collected some, and I believe that we have achieved one of the collection tasks given by the space. "Qiu Yue can see this, after all, the technology of this world is much more advanced than those previous mission worlds.
The thermo-optical stealth system, in this world, can also be discovered by the military. Not to mention the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Agency, where the surveillance equipment will only be more advanced, so that anyone who dares to approach has nothing to hide.
"Then while it's still early, let's go around, to be honest, for Zhiyuanxing, the two of us really haven't appreciated it properly." After Xia Houlin finished speaking, he pulled up Qiu Yue, who was full of smiles, and the two of them walked towards the light platform by the lake, where there were many tourists, like a real couple.
Five hours later, Xiahoulin and Qiuyue had already left Zhiyuanxing and arrived at an asteroid belt full of huge rocks on a scientific research ship called Qixing.
And here Xiahoulin and Qiuyue finally met Laxis, who was already the most important technician in UNSC at this moment. She was always followed by a large group of personnel, and there were even five agents who kept her safe at all times, though it was not necessary.
After the three of them separated the people on the side, they talked about their experiences with each other in the dining room of the research ship in the recent past.
It turns out that the reason why Laxis lost contact with the outside world is because she is responsible for the research and development of energy weapons in the UNSC.
After the UNSC won the Arcodia counterattack, it transported all the Covenant weapons and warship wreckage collected on the battlefield to a desolate uninhabited planet, which was actually a secret base of the military.
With the joint efforts of a group of scientific researchers, the UNSC has made preliminary results for the warship power system of the Star Alliance.
He is also researching the opponent's plasma weapon, preparing to acquire the technology of such a powerful weapon, and then quickly arm his army. In the battle with the Star Alliance, humanity suffered from the disparity of firepower.
This time Laxis is here because of something else entirely. She did develop a weapon, but it was based on a product from the previous world.
In order to strengthen the defense of Zhiyuan, Laxis proposed to build powerful turrets in space orbit so that they could resist possible enemy invasion fleets in the future.
Although it is said that in terms of Zhiyuanxing, in terms of defense, there is already a super magnetic acceleration cannon orbital battery, which is a big killer. However, he did not veto Laxis's proposal to strengthen her defense at the first time, but asked her to develop a weapon to test the situation.
So Laxis immediately threw out the design and construction plan of the QCX-76A Snake Cannon, which was developed by Zeon for fleet battles in the UC world, which could come in handy in this interstellar era.
As a result, this kind of weapon that sprays plasma energy bombs was immediately taken seriously by the UNSC. After all, there is no energy weapon that can withstand it on the human side, and the particle beam weapon developed by Laxis before is not very perfect in some aspects.
The current particle cannon is based on the technology of the MEGA particle cannon in the UC world. Although it has a destructive power far beyond that of a live-fire weapon, its power in the atmosphere will be greatly affected.
Although in the cosmic environment, it is an ideal weapon. However, the distance is still a bit short, and the power of the particle beam decreases with the distance after a certain distance.
The QCX-76A Snake Cannon uses high-energy plasma plasma, which is the same principle as the weapons of the main battleship of the Star Alliance. Therefore, the destructive power is very amazing, and the shooting distance is no shorter than that of the particle cannon.
Therefore, after watching the technical parameters of the QCX-76A Snake Cannon proposed by Laxis, the UNSC immediately mobilized a large number of people and began to secretly manufacture this first large-scale artillery attack system specially used in fleet warfare.
After all, the vast majority of human warships now do not have energy weapons. Although the UNSC is working on a large scale to retrofit warships with particle beam weapons, this is also an emergency solution.
You must know that the warships of the Star Covenant all have energy shields. At certain distances, the particle cannon cannot break through the opponent's defenses in one hit.
Therefore, the QCX-76A Snake Cannon will be favored by UNSC, with the help of advanced technology of this era. Originally, in the UC world, the problem of high-temperature resistant barrel and cooling has been perfectly solved.
Therefore, compared with the prototype developed by Zeon, the QCX-76A Snake Cannon has been qualitatively improved in terms of stability and continuous fire. In addition, energy can also be replenished by a special reactor.
This meteorite belt is here today to test the actual lethality of the QCX-76A Snake Cannon. And what about the stability of this weapon, once suitable, this weapon will be quickly put into mass production, and become a necessary defensive weapon for several major colony planets. Used to defend against incoming Covenant fleets.
Then Laxis obtained some technical information in his hand, and took the opportunity of this meeting to hand it over directly to Xiahoulin and Qiuyue.
Just an hour after the meeting between the three of Xiahoulin, the testing of the QCX-76A Snake Cannon officially began.
As a cloud of high-temperature plasma plasma was ejected at high speed, it hit an abandoned ship 2,000 kilometers away, and directly exploded it. The military top brass who watched the test couldn't help but let out exclamations and applause.
The destructive power that can completely destroy a warship with one shot, such a large energy weapon, is really a defensive weapon that the UNSC currently needs. Of course, some military bigwigs are even thinking about installing this weapon on newly built warships.
After finishing the test of the QCX-76A Snake Cannon, the research ship "Qixing" that Xia Houlin and others were riding was preparing to jump towards the Zhiyuan Star at the moment.
But at this time, this spacecraft, which was mainly used for scientific experiments and investigations, suddenly changed course. Head to a remote new colonial area, a place that has only been discovered in recent years.
Because of the outbreak of war between the Covenant and humanity, the development of the colony was put on hold. As a result, apart from a small number of researchers, there are virtually no military or civilian garrisons.
After hearing that the Daystar began to turn around, Xia Houlin and Qiu Yue looked indifferent. Anyway, the UNSC has already provided a lot of weapons to the UNSC side, and I believe that the other side will hold out for a longer time than in the original history.
It's good to look at other planets now, and maybe something unexpected will happen there.
