Chapter 225: The New Alona Aboard

In the Citadel Convention, hundreds of types of weapons were banned - from cracked warheads for individual weapons to high-yield antimatter weapons...... It's all-encompassing! So it's not surprising that you'll often only see it in this world - except for the Mass Effect Cannon or the Mass Effect Cannon - because most weapon types are banned for one reason or another! There are a lot of very useful types among them.

In fact...... God knows how many of those entries are favorable to civilized races and how many are beneficial to the Reaper invasion?! This kind of thing that I found out afterwards ...... "It turned out to be a pit dug by the harvester for us" is now being played every day in TV dramas.

So this qiΔ“ is a fart for Lu Yuan - the main reason for making the new ship in the style of a cruise ship is not the Citadel Convention, but the primary goal of this ship is to be as comfortable as possible - because this is a cruise ship.

The world is so big, I want to see it. You must know that since the dawn entered this world, almost six years have passed before you know it, and most of the time you are staying on this mothership. Before that, in order to lay a good foundation, he wasted 20 years in another world!

As the captain of the ship, Lu Yuan has to think about his crew. Therefore, before the plot officially begins, he plans to drive this luxurious cruise ship and carry his crew around the galaxy in batches, at least to see the legendary Red Rock Planet, Blue Ocean June and other ten beauties of the Milky Way.

*****

Inside dock No. 4. Lu Yuan took Alona, Kexue, Mu Xing and other members of the Dawn Regiment to stand at the foot of the new ship.

The main body of the ship has been completely built, a beautiful golden, translucent ship. Standing above the dock. There is a large canvas that obscures the entire side of the ship. Lu Yuan handed the detonator into Nana's hands and motioned for her, the main god, to unveil it.

"Huh? Why me? "Nana, have you forgotten your status as the main god because you have been messing around for too long?

Alona took the detonator in her hand and looked left and right, and pressed the green button in the middle without hesitation!

"Bang Bang ~ Bang Bang ~", with a rhythmic slight explosion. Pushing upwards through the layers, a rope node that holds the canvas in place is blown open! In the smoke of gunpowder raised by the explosion. More shiny debris fell from the ceiling of the dockyard and fell downward. "Wow~!" A group of bear children jumped as the massive canvas slid off the side of the ship's hull, revealing the surface engraved on the right side of the alloy hull. That brilliant dark gold patterned font!

"New. "Alona" - This ship named after Alona again commemorates the legendary warship "Alona" that disintegrated with the kingdom of God......

The crescent moon shape of the new ship is very beautiful (Eve's Emma Prophecy class, described as the "Queen's Mask"), but if you calculate according to the size, the hull with antennas is as high as 560 meters, which is equivalent to the ordinary cruiser of Starlink.

However, due to the vertical axial distribution of the hull, which is very different from the traditional, transparent front armor plates. Let the inner wall of the cruise ship be clear at a glance. Throughout the battleship, there is no device that is reminiscent of a powerful main gun - so it does not give much of a sense of threat except for the magnificent appearance.

And the three layers of transparent armor plates that could be moved, each covering two-thirds of the front of the ship. It also gives people a gorgeous artwork-like feeling. When the armor plate starts to move, it always attracts the attention of countless viewers - the switch between dark gold and aqua white light and shadow when sliding is simply gorgeous! But for the protection of this ship, I'm afraid everyone will scoff at it! Each layer of armor plates less than ten centimeters thick can stop the gods? I'm afraid that the main cannon of the Graytip Shark can be directly penetrated......

This is Lu Yuan's exclusive battleship, "New. The first impression of the "Alona".

The design of the new ship heavily copied the technology of the Mona. After all, from the point of view of battleship technology. Mona is several eras ahead of the world of Mass Effect. If it weren't for the fact that this world has such a wonderful substance as "Element Zero", I am afraid that there would be no comparison between the two sides.

Mona's idea of standardization, modularity of attachments. The same affected the new Alona and other warships. When the main body of the ship is completed, there are 12 shield load points, 20 weapon load points (10 on the left and 10 on the left and right sides), and 8 rear device load points - as well as a large number of flexible peripherals.

――――――

12 shield load points, evenly distributed over the surface of the vessel, allow for the installation of standard cap-shaped shield generators. Dawn currently offers three types of energy shield generators, laser, electromagnetic, and neutron shields, which provide good protection against laser, ion, and neutron energy attacks, respectively.

However, due to the current state of the Mass Effect world (which has been emasculated by the "catalyst" as a means of attacking), it is almost only necessary to defend against two types of shelling: the Mass Effect Cannon and the Laser Cannon. Therefore, a shield generator to protect against lasers is installed, and the kinetic barrier is provided by the ship's core.

――――――

There are 10 weapon loading points on each side of the ship, which can support battery batteries, missiles, rocket nests, torpedo tubes, main guns, and ...... And so on weapon launchers. Almost all of these devices, the Mothership Dawn are designed in series! Because the Dawn's enemies are not just the Reapers, but more importantly, the Mona. Therefore, in terms of the offensive performance of future warships, it must be diverse and three-dimensional!

For example, the strongest warship currently designed by the Dawn Mothership, the "Dawning-class" dreadnought, in addition to the two super mass effect main guns, also has 400 particle guard cannons, 52 missile launchers, and a variety of attack methods such as releasing heavy torpedoes, miniature black holes, and mass effect field waves!

And special minelayers, even in five minutes, block the airspace of an astronomical unit with air mines......

Speaking of the "New Elona", small weapons such as guard batteries, missile launchers, etc., can occupy a weapon loading point.

However, it is a large weapon that consumes a lot of energy when fired. For example, the main gun needs to occupy three weapon load points! In addition to this, in the non-combat phase. The site can also be diverted for other purposes - such as installing powerful searchlights during spacecraft expeditions, or racking cameras during travel...... However, the New Elona currently has only four twin defensive turrets on each side, based on the Prosen's particle weapon cannon.

Particle weapons, a unique thermal weapon system of the Protheus, have played a great role in the war against the Reapers.

Most of the beacons obtained by Dawn contain ProtΓ©n's technology on environmental modification. There are not many weapons and battleships. In particular, he didn't find the Proxian particle rifle, which made Lu Yuan feel quite regretful. We can only wait until the last Protheus is dug up in the future. Fortunately, in the part of the excavation of the mine, I accidentally discovered the method of making the particle cannon.

Based on the new particle cannon technology, Mu Xing led scientists to study and analyze, and soon launched the fifth-generation gardian system - a powerful particle beam cannon. It can effectively reduce the blocking capacity of kinetic energy barriers, about 80% of the way!

This means that the vast majority of the current warships in the galaxy are almost undefended under this kind of shelling......

Other weapons, such as the huge supply boxes hanging in the folding space, hit with a large number of missiles and disposable torpedo tubes, are just not installed for the time being.

――――――

Finally, there are 8 device loading points at the rear of the spacecraft, which will provide the "New Elona" with more ways to combine devices.

For example, the main power of the spacecraft is the "Tantalus" system. However, if you want to further improve acceleration and seaworthiness, you can also occupy 6 more device load points on the rear side. as an engine interface.

In normal times, only three military small antimatter engines need to be installed, which is enough for travel. When necessary. It can be used as a medium antimatter engine (occupying three interfaces) + three small antimatter engines, providing great acceleration in an instant! In extreme cases, the combination of two medium-sized antimatter engines can transform the ship into a roaring beast in an instant!

As for military engines and antimatter, this is a trivial matter for Dawn, which is now looming in the galaxy. As long as it is in the name of a test ship and a "scrapped engine". No one came back to meddle.

In addition, the backward device load point. It is also possible to install a deductible launcher to defend against missile pursuit, or a lightning catapult (throwing an empty mine backwards, plotting a rear-end guy, very insidious).

――――――

"Would you like to get on the boat for a visit?" Lu Yuan reluctantly extended the invitation, but his eyes squinted at the bear children. He didn't want his ship to blow itself up on the dock before it was launched.

But "Yes!" Yes! A group of relatives and friends, whether they were bear children or not, were jumping and shouting, so that his fantasy was stillborn, and he could only grit his teeth and ask the bear children to come on board.

Because it is a cruise ship, there are two gates in the lower and middle parts of the back of the spacecraft. One is pedestrian traffic, and the other is the ejection port of fighter planes and combat vehicles. The New Alona carries two Aerospace Fighters and two Greytip Shark Chariots, and the viewing platform on top can also accommodate heavy gunboats.

When she walked up the gangway, Nana, who was holding Lu Yuan's arm, suddenly asked, "Ah Yuan, is this ship really not equipped with a main gun?" No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like what Ah Yuan would do......"

"Of course!" Lu Yuan was stunned, "There is no main gun...... Can that still be called a spaceship?! ”

He snapped his fingers into the air with his right handβ€”

A transparent light appeared on the right side of the hull, and it was "painted" rapidly!

The holographic technology obtained from the Mona people, after seeing it up close at this moment, is far more thrilling than what I saw on the battlefield in the past! Just before a few people could break free from that beautiful sight, a flamboyant main gun with a golden body had already appeared on the right side of the battleship, occupying three weapon loading points!

The new main gun is 500 meters long, like a cavalry spear stabbing forward, pointing straight ahead! The "New Alona" temporarily abandoned the Mass Effect Cannon, whether it was a straight line or a spiral type. Her first main gun was the main gun of the battleship captured from the Mona - "Ion Stagnation Cannon"!

On the side of the arrogant golden barrel, four parallel lines are etched! Then there is a line of huge fonts that cross the lines and dance of dragons and phoenixes - "Golden Saber"! (To be continued) R466
