Chapter 408: Crossing the Sea (2)

Cheng Mingli's father may be very good, but the current Cheng Mingli is also a grassroots commander with the rank of lieutenant. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Commanders like this are graded every year from the military academies of the four comprehensive colleges, and their task is mainly to help soldiers better carry out the orders of their superiors, and they are really not qualified to know these things involving high-level secrets.

"Cut! What is the spirit? Uncle Eugene wasn't a big soldier when he joined the army, but I started from a much higher starting point than him. Look, in a few years, then I want Uncle Eugene to meet and salute me" Cheng Mingli thought indignantly, while waving his hand to signal everyone to get in the car and continue to move forward.

The hum of the hovering armored vehicle's energy engine sounded, and then disappeared without a trace. Although this kind of suspended armored vehicle has long been withdrawn from active service in the army, civilian arms companies continue to produce these things that are several times behind.

Just as there are companies that produce outdated helicopters and off-road motorcycles, there are always some enthusiasts who have a soft spot for these old antiques. The Pioneer Regiment is undoubtedly a concentration camp for these enthusiasts, and almost everyone will have such a few gadgets stuffed into their space watches, and if all the collections of a squad are gathered, they can even open an arms exhibition that spans thousands of years in history.

Half a month later, the group finally arrived at the end of the vertical passage. The passage had just been built, and the matching super-speed orbital vehicles had not yet been cultivated, and supersonic flight was not possible in the air-filled passage, otherwise the resulting sonic boom would be absolutely catastrophic. This is also the reason why Cheng Mingli and his party are so slow. But now that Cheng Mingli has time, they don't have to be too anxious.

The design of the sea-crossing vehicle should have been carried out as early as the way to the road. After knowing the specific application and the material properties, the design work of the Interstellar Age became extremely simple.

In most cases, Mingzong just gives an idea, and the semi-intelligent assistant program will find the best optimization plan through database comparison, and then carry out modeling verification in the virtual environment in the database to correct the design defects one by one. By the time Cheng Mingli's squadron reached the end of the passage, a completely feasible course of action had already been built by Mingzong.

The cross-sea vehicle given by Ming Cang is a deep-diving ship in the shape of a drop-shaped submarine, which is a tool for shuttling through the ocean during the planetary era, but I didn't expect it to be moved out by Ming Cang today. However, the details are very different from the Beifeng-class nuclear submarine that Cheng Mingli is familiar with, such as the addition of an electromagnetic/energy shield generator, an external radar array, an attitude adjustment energy engine, a balancer, and even a C-class divergent energy cannon at the front end of the submarine.

The Divergent Energy Cannon is not used as a weapon to attack, but rather as a mining machine component used in mining in low-level civilizations, somewhat similar to the drill rigs used in second-tier civilizations. The adjustable energy beam fired from the Divergent Energy Cannon will erode the obstacles ahead, allowing for a quick path between the rock formation and the ore deposit.

Ming Cang's use of the divergent energy cannon here is to directly penetrate the magma in front of the submarine, creating a short-distance vacuum zone to increase the flexibility of the submarine's movement in the magma sea and the speed of propulsion. The principle is similar to that of the Planetary Age airboat, reducing contact with the drag medium and increasing the speed.

The exterior of the submarine is equipped with a dual electromagnetic/energy shield system. According to Ming Cang, the lava sea is filled with molten iron-nickel and other magnetic metals, and electromagnetic shields can protect these things against the periphery of the submarine to reduce the pressure on the hull. The internal energy shield is used to deal with non-magnetic materials that are close to the submarine, directly eroding the space around the submarine into a vacuum, and protecting the safety of the submarine to the greatest extent.

The silicon crystal planting technique is somewhat similar to that of controlled nuclear fusion, and the initial crystal seed is a red crystal with a strict atom sequencing method, and it took a week to program this crystal alone.

Subsequently, Ming Cang controlled the building vine to divide a new passage not far from a node at the end of the passage, and after the passage was formed, it was sealed from the back, and then opened up on the side near the magma sea, and the magma quickly gushed into the passage along the huge pressure underground, and in a short time, the crystals left in the passage were devoured cleanly.

The high temperature of the magma and the abundant silicon and other essential elements activate the chain reaction inside the crystal seed, and the high temperature is directly converted into a huge amount of energy to promote the rapid progress of the chain reaction. Countless atoms of silicon, iron, nickel and other elements were rapidly stacked around the seed in a specific way, and in less than three days, the submarine outline with a length of more than 100 meters and a diameter of more than 30 meters took shape.

At this time, the submarine looks like a glass model that has just been machined and is cooling down. The whole body is red, exuding terrifying heat, and it is quietly suspended in the magma sea, continuing to absorb energy and trace elements from the magma sea. It wasn't until after waiting for nearly a day that the crystal submarine was completely formed, and after Ming Cang managed to completely expel the magma inside the passage, everyone wore alloy armor and cautiously approached the crystal submarine.

Before the blazing crystal submarine cooled down, Ming Cang quickly approached the crystal submarine in engineering clothes, released more than a dozen spherical scanners and carefully scanned the hull of the boat before exhaling a long breath, and then took out a team of more than fifty engineering robots with six arms from the space watch and worked around the crystal submarine.

The robot is a 30-centimeter-diameter ball, and its six arms protrude from the inside of the ball. There are three fingers on each arm, and these mechanical fingers are very functional, some can emit lasers, and some can stretch out fast-rotating mechanical wrenches and other engineering equipment, which are very fast and efficient.

"The current submarine is just a hull, and there are no accessories, because there are many things that even I can't touch. Therefore, these parts of the accessories must be replaced with other parts of the same level. For example, the divergent energy cannon at the bow, the propulsion energy engine at the stern, the shield generator throughout the hull, the attitude adjustment engine, the detector array, ......

However, before that, the whole body of the submarine must be energy reconciled, and there are unnecessary stresses in many parts of the hull formed by the atomic stack, and this part of the stress must be released to make the hull reach the best level. This process works like annealing in metal smelting, but the original process has long since been phased out."

During Ming Cang's explanation of Cheng Mingli, fifty engineering robots were flying around the hull inside and out, and the light green energy beams shining from the robot's eyes penetrated the hull, scanning the entire submarine from the outside to the inside several times before ending the process and starting to install a large number of equipment that Ming Cang took out of his "treasure chest".

"I know that the submarine itself is heat-resistant, but these parts shouldn't be very heat-resistant, right?" Cheng Mingli asked Mingli uncertainly, pointing to a large pile of metal parts in front of him.

"Most of them are still okay, such as the Taihang 113 energy propulsion engine produced by the Northern Company, which is used in the Dongfeng 61 super giant missile, the propulsion is very good, the key is that it is very durable, and the service life is twice that of the same model of Cami 03 heavy missile thruster produced by Matra Arms Company. Although the propulsion engine equipped with the Cami 03 is completely sufficient for a disposable consumable missile, it is far from being used on our submarine," Ming Cang said, shaking his head.

"Why do you have so many things on you?" Cheng Mingli was surprised.

"It's as childish as if I asked you what you're doing with so many weapons," Ming Cang turned her neck 180 degrees to loosen her muscles and decided not to bother with him.

"What about these heat-resistant materials, like the engineering plastic radome on the outside of the communication array?" Cheng Mingli pointed his arm to the communication array component more than five meters high in front of him.

"When the time comes, a layer of liquid crystal will be added to the outside, and the shield generator on the hull will also work when the submarine is propulsed, so there is no need to worry too much, there will be absolutely no problem," Ming Cang explained, and then began to drill into the submarine's internal control engineering robot to equip the instruments inside the submarine.

The only advantage of the crystal submarine is that the internal energy channel is very smooth and perfect, which greatly speeds up the progress of the project, otherwise, the total length of the energy channel of more than 10,000 kilometers will be much more troublesome. Now it's good, even the installation position and card slot of the instrument parts are ready, directly put the parts in place, and after charging and debugging, the installation and commissioning of the crystal submarine was completed in just three days.

"Whew...... Send a message to the head of the group and say that we are ready and about to have our first deep dive experiment! (To be continued.) )
