The next day. Yun Haoyu held a secret meeting in the palace hall, and the two queens, the great sage, and the fifteen bigwigs of the Supreme Committee of Project Zero were all present!

In addition, hundreds of major project leaders from the engineering team also participated in the meeting, communicated and negotiated on many problems encountered recently, and talked about countermeasures!

"Regarding the various difficulties that have arisen in the progress of the project, I have already read the relevant reports!" The emperor on the throne was the first to speak, "But what are the specific problems? What are the challenges that need to be solved? I'd like to hear a detailed explanation from you leaders today! ”

According to the original schedule, by now, the first Death Star ship should have begun combat testing! But because all kinds of problems have not been solved, this big guy is still lying in the base and cannot be born!

This project is related to the future rise and fall of the empire, and it is an important bargaining chip for the empire to fight against aliens and unify the sea of stars. It will comprehensively affect the future strategic plans of the empire, and even lead to the hopelessness of the great cause of imperial unification!

There is no turning back from the bow, and the plan has been carried out so far, and it has consumed a lot of human, material and financial resources of the empire, no matter what the considerations, it must be persevered!

Jin Yue stood up and said, "Your Majesty! Regarding the many problems that arose in the development process of the Death Star ship, after analyzing and summarizing, Chen can basically summarize them into one problem: materials! ”

"Since the empire does not yet have the strength of the Origin Ancient Protoss, the territory it controls is far inferior! As a result, there are many special raw materials for the manufacture of key components of the Death Star ship, which we simply cannot muster! And the performance of alternative materials is not up to par, so the project is in trouble! ”

"Oh! So that's it! Yun Haoyu looked at Xiao Muhan beside her, and she hurriedly said:

"In this matter, the concubine has ordered a large number of people to be dispatched to conduct a comprehensive search of all the resource systems within the entire empire territory! In addition, hundreds of expeditionary fleets have been sent to the wild star fields around the empire to investigate, hoping to achieve something! ”

"Is the empire sure that it will find all the resources it needs within half a year?" Yun Haoyu asked again.

Empress Xiao shook her head: "Your Majesty, this is impossible!" There are not two kinds of materials missing from the many key parts of the Death Star ship! The concubines have read the list, and there are hundreds of rare raw materials of all kinds, and there are many of them, which are extremely valuable strategic resources in those major alien civilizations. ”

"There are many of them, and the concubines have consulted with academic authorities in the relevant fields of the empire, and they have never even heard of it, let alone seen it! It can be seen that it is not something that can be found in the current Star Sea World at all! ”

In a word, the current heritage of the empire is not at the same level as the ancient civilization of the Megatron Star Sea! So if you want to come up with such a big killing weapon, you can't do it anymore, even if you get the technological inheritance of this civilization!

Sending a large number of expeditionary fleets to the wilderness to find such an operation can only be said to be doing their best and obeying the destiny of heaven! After all, the empire can't have such good luck as to be able to find all the resources it needs in a short period of time! Not to mention the danger of the savage galaxy, which everyone knows! Such an action, which is only effective and at all costs, will inevitably lead to a large number of fleets dying in it due to various accidents!

Moreover, such a large-scale operation, after a long time, it is inevitable that it will not be noticed by those few alien civilizations, so as to take targeted measures and do everything possible to interfere with the plan to sabotage the empire!

To this end, after many discussions, the scientists of the engineering group proposed a package for the development of alternative materials, and the scale of this huge project and the amount of various human and material resources required are no less than those of the Death Star Project! And it takes about one to two years!

If such a plan is successful, it will be a leap forward for the field of new materials for the empire! If it was peacetime, Yun Haoyu would definitely approve it! It's a pity that the current empire doesn't have much time, and far water can't save the thirst!

Yun Haoyu groaned: "What is missing, I want to see the list!" ”

Feng Lanxi immediately turned on the light brain, and on the huge projection light screen, dense material names appeared, as well as the introduction of the approximate properties of each material, refining and processing methods, and so on!

The Great Wise Man looked at the people below and continued:

"According to the information obtained from Yuangu Technology, most of the origins of these materials have been mentioned! It's just that the depths of the Savage Star Domain are too strange and unpredictable for us, so it's not so easy to find! Moreover, quite a few places are too far away from the current Star Sea World! Not even the best expedition fleets have ever arrived! ”

"If we send out the Empire's most elite Praetorian Guard, is it possible to complete the mission?" Yun Haoyu asked.

"Your Majesty! Again, it takes time and is hard to control! "As for the cost, it's no less than if we were doing our own alternative material development projects!" Therefore, the concubine is not too optimistic about such an action! ”

"Without these materials, what level would the current Death Star ship be able to reach? Is there value in putting it on the battlefield? Fang Yuqing asked.

Bernard stood up and said, "At this stage, if the Imperial Industrial System does its best, it can ensure that the comprehensive performance of the Death Star ship reaches about thirty percent of the design standard!" ”

"Its energy core can only use the reactor unit of the enhanced version of the 'Tengyuan' Palace, which directly causes its movement speed to be a little lower than the current 'Ancestral Dragon' class interstellar fortress; the power of the main gun of the Death Star ship is only about twice as powerful as the model used in the palace; and the time to recharge and launch has been extended from the original 180 seconds to 900 seconds!"

"The protective strength of the energy barrier is only one and a half times stronger than that of the palace; The detection range of various radar early warning systems on board the ship only reaches half of the design standard; The effectiveness of the force field interference shielding system will be reduced by an order of magnitude! There are many other important features that have either shrunk significantly or simply can't be activated! ”

"But once this big guy is put into the battlefield, the cost of its use will not be reduced in the slightest! All kinds of consumption add up, and the daily cost is not less than 10 billion yuan crystals! The benefits produced are far less than this number, so this kind of defective thing is chicken ribs, and it is better not to use it! ”

The hall fell silent again, and everyone's faces were not very good-looking! If this trouble can't be solved, the empire will only be very passive in the future!

"So, can the current empire still be able to win about two years of peace?" After a long time, the Emperor's voice sounded again.

(It's not that easy to get this big killer to come out!) What do book lovers think should be done? There have been a lot of things in the last few days, so the update is not powerful, and it will return to normal from tomorrow! ）
