The field was quiet. No one spoke up to answer his question.

Although any of the scientific authorities present had a long list of illustrious academic titles on their heads, and were old enough to be his great-grandfather! But in the face of this notorious imperial intelligence giant, there are really not many people who dare to confront him face to face! What's more, this incident is indeed a major mistake on the part of the project team!

The cause of the incident was a comprehensive inspection of the system that began a few days ago. Since the final assembly of the Death Star ship has been completed, according to the workflow, the next step is to start the operational status testing of all components, important compartments, and various functional areas.

However, before a third of the initial inspection process was carried out, a series of problems were discovered, such as incompatible system programs, the performance of some components did not meet the design requirements, and the energy consumption of some functional areas was higher than expected.

None of this is a big deal, because the scale of this megaproject is unprecedented, and a lot of past experience is no longer applicable! It's normal to go wrong! Therefore, the technical staff of the engineering team immediately began to take targeted measures in accordance with the predetermined crisis management plan, listed all the problems found one by one, and organized a capable team of experts to come up with corresponding solutions after consultation and consultation!

These days, tens of thousands of non-compliant components are being disassembled, redesigned, manufactured, and reassembled! Everything went in an orderly manner.

But some problems are not easy to solve! After a preliminary screening and filtering, several of the most difficult troubles were reported layer by layer, and finally put in front of the big names of the Supreme Decision-making Committee.

The energy core of the Death Star ship is thirty composite heavy element fusion reactors, with a total power of more than sixty trillion megawatts, which is fifty times larger than the total installed capacity of the empire's largest star-level energy base! Su Shangqing had seen that the base was located on an uninhabited planet near the Tianhua Star Domain, stretching for hundreds of kilometers!

And now, in order to meet the Death Starship's appalling demand for energy, the energy core must not only meet the power requirements, but also compress the volume to no more than ten kilometers! If it weren't for the full set of technical information from Yuangu Technology, the current empire would not have thought of building such an anti-heaven energy reactor even if it was another three hundred years!

The operational testing of the reactor units, as well as the testing of the extreme performance, began a month ago! Everything started off well, but within a few days there was a big problem: once the operating power reached a quarter of the design standard, the stability of the energy output of the entire unit fluctuated dramatically! It seriously affects the normal operation of other functional areas!

Moreover, if the operation time is a little longer, the giant reactor body with a thickness of up to 100 meters will have a series of problems such as tremors, temperature runaways, and inexplicable termination of the fusion reaction!

For this purpose, the authorities of the expert group have conducted several simulation experiments on the giant optical brain, and based on the collected data, after careful analysis. It was preliminarily determined that the materials for the construction of the reactor were not up to standard!

As a result, the Supreme Council decided to redesign the reactor and completely replace it with a new material with higher strength. An additional amount of up to two trillion reserve funds were spent for this! Just a week ago, the new reactor unit was finally installed again!

This time, before the equipment was shipped, the experts conducted several ground tests to make sure that everything was in order before approval for installation. But in the overall operational performance test that followed, the reactor had another problem! And it is even more serious that the reactor body will burst, and the entire energy core will be scrapped!

Two technical accidents in a row, so that the members of the Supreme Council are very dissatisfied, the head of the engineering team Jin Yue was called by the queen to reprimand, Su Shangqing put down all the affairs at hand, personally came to the site to inspect the progress of the project, after learning that the expert group was helpless, finally couldn't help but be angry!

If the problem of the energy core is not solved, it will greatly drag down the operation performance of other functional areas, which means that this big guy will not be able to meet the expected technical indicators at all! At best, it's a little better than a normal mobile Star Fortress!

In this way, this super project, which has cost countless human and material resources of the empire, has become a big joke!

"Gentlemen, you are the Empire's best technologist! That's why His Majesty the Emperor has entrusted you with such an important and great project related to the national fortunes of the Empire! The Minister of Security pressed the fire and reprimanded with a grim face:

"But now, you bunch of shitty have delivered such a terrible report card to the Imperial Government! Let the empire's heavenly investment be all wasted! Do you know what you're doing? It's a crime! It is an unforgivable sin! ”

"If you are soldiers, after such a bad battle, I am afraid that you will not even have a chance to go to a military court! The Commander will kill you all! Bernard gritted his teeth.

A thin, bald-headed special academician stood up tremblingly and said helplessly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have discussed all possible solutions, but we still can't come up with satisfactory results! Because the technical requirements for some key materials are too high for the energy core unit! It's even far beyond our prior estimates......"

In his narration, the big people at the meeting finally understood the cause and effect of the incident.

The performance of the reactor unit is not up to par because some scarce materials cannot be found on the territory of the empire at all, and they cannot be obtained through outsourcing! The only feasible way is to immediately send an expedition fleet to the Savage Star Domain to find it, but this is also a matter of luck, and it is simply too late in time!

For this reason, after discussion, the expert group decided to use some alternative materials, and as a result, the problems mentioned above arose!

In the heyday of the Origin Ancient God Clan, the territory controlled by them was far from being comparable to the current human race! Countless known and unknown wild galaxies are under its rule! Therefore, their strategic weapons manufacturing system can choose a much larger range of rare materials!

Although the Starlight Empire has already controlled two-thirds of the known Star Sea Worlds, it is still impossible to have such a strong resource base! Therefore, if you want to make the strategic weapons of the Origin Ancient God Clan reappear in the Star Sea, it is basically an impossible task!

Marshal Gurlons, who had been grim-faced, asked in a deep voice: "Don't tell us that these are useless! I'm just asking you, what are the more requirements to come up with alternative materials that meet the requirements? ”

The other party gritted his teeth and said: "This must be a greater investment and support for the new material field of the empire, if it is invested at any cost like the Death Star project, maybe in another year or so, you can come up with suitable materials!" ”

"Another year?" Li Xingyan was also a little annoyed, "You said it lightly, now that the situation facing the empire is getting more and more sinister, how can there be a year to give you Lang fee?" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, then there is nothing we can do!" The old academician spread his hands.

Jin Yue slapped the table and said fiercely: "A month! I'll give you another month at most! If you can't complete the mission, huh! His Majesty the Emperor's camp will soon return to the imperial capital, he is not as easy to talk as we are, when the time comes, you can do it yourself! ”

With that, he walked out of the top-secret conference room in a rage.

The remaining bigwigs looked at each other, shook their heads and walked out, Su Shangqing stopped at the door, turned his head and sneered at them:

"If possible, I hope to be able to invite you to the Imperial Ministry of Security in a month's time! When the time comes, I will be very happy to entertain you with an electric chair!" ——

Planet 6, in the Chamber of Secrets.

"There is still more than half a month, and Your Majesty will come back!" The somber voice of the man in black echoed through the empty room.

"Yes! When the time comes, we'll be dormant for a while! Figure One sighed softly.

Number Five's feminine voice sounded again:

"That's as it should be! Your Majesty has just destroyed three superpowers and nearly doubled the size of the Empire! The prestige in the army and the DPRK is like the sky, and the luck is at its peak! At this time, whoever dares to challenge his authority will die without a place to die! So we have to be patient! ”

"Of course, I don't think there's anything wrong with that!" Number Four said calmly, "It's just that our plan is going to be greatly delayed." Ay! I thought that this war would take three or five years! That's three superpowers, after all! It's over! ”

No. 1 sighed: "This shows that this Majesty of ours is indeed the favorite favored by the Mandate of Heaven!" The old man has lived for most of his life, and he is such an outstanding person, not to mention knowledge, he has never even heard of it! If it weren't for him, how could this Star Sea World be unified so quickly? ”

"Yes! I admit it! Zero said lightly, "If this majesty can be like a true nobleman, it will not be a loss for us to be sincerely loyal to him!" It's a pity that he grew up in the people, and we are not all the way at all! ”

"Speaking of which, it's only to blame Yun Tianque, that idiot who wants to save face! Since he knew that his grandson was still alive, he didn't care! No. 2 was angry when he thought of this, "If he could have returned to the family and received the most orthodox aristocratic elite education, the current empire would definitely be a different situation, right?" ”

Number Four said regretfully:

"Speaking of which, I really don't know what the old ghost of Bai Yun Tianque thought about at the beginning, his only grandson, and he has such an amazing talent, he actually threw it away from the people! If he had been able to take drastic measures at the beginning, he would have made every effort to cultivate Yun Haoyu to the top position. Now the Yun family's status in the imperial capital is by no means limited to this, right? ”

"Until now, his grandson has become the emperor, but the family has not received half of the benefits, and even the status of the royal family has not been recognized! Hey! Let outsiders see the joke for no reason! ”

Zero nodded, shook his head again, and said with a wry smile:

"If I had such a grandson, of course I would raise him at any cost! I'm sure all of you here think so! It's a pity that everything in the future is uncertain! Until it becomes a fact, no one will think that their original idea is wrong! Including that Yun Tianque, could he have imagined that his grandson would become the first person in the Star Sea more than twenty years later? ”

"So, it's useless to talk about this now, let's discuss how to deal with the next situation!"
