Chapter 50: Extreme Speed
"The people of New Blue Star, this F2 Interstellar Formula race is official, the first to rush out of the starting point is a spaceship of the 7 series of Tuquan people, more than a dozen ships of the same type form a formation behind them, and other spaceships trying to surpass have to be avoided, it seems that the No. 5 city-state has a tendency to win the championship this time!"
The commentator played it as soon as possible, and at the same time, the entire New Zealand Star was watching the game, and the major city-states, or places where people gathered on the black market, all let out loud cheers, making these places seem to tremble.
For a planet that worships speed, there is nothing more than F2 to ignite the fire in everyone's hearts, at this moment, whether it is humans, clones and robots, regardless of status, they only care about speed, who can refresh the speed created by Xia Long, who can finish the race first!
Viai, the de facto ruler of City-State No. 5, is now very proud: "For this competition, I have rushed to build 50 Earthdosphere 7 spaceships, and I have been experimenting for a lot of time before. It's a pity that my brother Vero was burned to ashes in that fire, otherwise with his skills, he would definitely be able to make the 7 Series ship even better! ”
The early part of the race was a little less difficult, with no more than a few meteorites on the way, and this stage was used entirely to warm up the participating ships.
According to the rules of F2, you have to circle the D star ring area, which is a long distance, with the current level of technology of New Blue Star, it will take about 80 hours, if you don't plan the route, the spacecraft will almost sail in a straight line, there is no ornamentation and competition.
Therefore, the difficulty of the race route will gradually increase later, and you will have to deliberately cross the meteorite group in the D star ring, and some sections need to suddenly change the direction of sailing, or move left and right or up and down in all directions.
The most dangerous section is the "sawtooth track" in the second half, which requires the participating spacecraft to adjust its direction frequently, and the slightest mistake will hit a nearby meteorite, and it can only slow down when turning, which is also the best place to open up the gap.
In order to test the comprehensive performance of the spacecraft, this competition will pass through the satellite D-1 of the D star, which is a planet with a strong magnetic field, and a little closer will cause the nearby spacecraft to be disturbed.
In order to increase the difficulty of Casharon and test the ability of the Life Freedom subship, at this stage, Xialong needs to be about 3 kilometers closer to D-Guard 1 than other ships, and by the way, Xialon's race distance is increased.
Many detection devices have been added to the race route to ensure the fairness of the race, and it is impossible to avoid difficult stages in the race!
Especially for the second half of Xia Long's track, Cass spent a lot of effort, and even set up a sensing device in the difficulty area, once the sub-ship deviated from the track, it would be immediately discovered and punished by time.
"Now in the first group, it is still a group of Earth Circle 7 series spaceships in the No. 5 city-state, they cooperate very well, lead each other, and once other spaceships surpass, they will immediately jointly block them!"
"Closely followed by Davy's Star of Hope, the ship's performance is quite good, and several times it tried to overtake the 7 series ship in front of it, but was stopped! Worthy of the people who used to work under Dr. Mel! ”
"In the second group, the lead is a modified spaceship of the Earthdosphere 6 series, which is a good result for ordinary people, and even the ships of the Jueying and Peregrine Falcon series are difficult to match!"
"After this, it is a large number of ordinary people to transform the spaceship, no matter what the final result is, but this attitude is very resolute, everyone in New Blue Star is involved in the development of technology, and we New Blue Star are not afraid of the invasion of the Avengers!"
After a burst of passionate words from the commentator, the blood of all those who watched this game again became enthusiastic, if there was no threat from the Avengers, many people would not use their brains to improve the spaceship, of course, it does not exclude the factor of Cass's huge rewards.
Three minutes passed quickly, and Xia Long piloted the invisible Life Freedom subship, which had begun to slow down, ready to start his own race.
"Computer, remove the stealth effect, the power system is idling, wait for the scan, and set off as soon as we get our race route!" Xia Long pressed back the excitement in his heart.
Computer: Be aware that your heart is beating a little too fast, your blood pressure is a little too high, and your adrenaline hormone secretion is too high!
"Now that the screen has been adjusted to the starting point area, the driver of Xia Long, who has attracted everyone's attention, has already arrived in the Life Freedom, and I wonder if he will be able to make a win 3 minutes after the start of the race!"
With the voice of the tournament commentator, New Blue Star cheered again, especially the entertainment venues managed by Vero in City-State 5, which under the guidance of Oscar, played every day with the video of Xia Long piloting the sub-ship against dozens of warships, which made people never get tired of watching it.
And those crew members who were sent back to New Blue Star by Xia Long, the cosmic shipwreck, were also excited at this moment, Xia Long, who has supreme speed and respects life, has reversed the image of many "thieves".
Some people cheered and some people worried, many people had bet on the competition, the Life Freedom would participate, which was not expected, even if the ship was late, it was still very likely to win the championship at that terrifying speed.
After the scan, some auxiliary thrusters stretched out from the tail of the subship where Xia Long was located, and the race began.
According to Charlon's requirements, No. 2 uses hydraulic oxy-hydrogen fuel in these thrusters, each of which can be injected with nitrogen oxide to improve fuel efficiency and cool the thrusters at the right time, and the specific control is done by the computer of life freedom.
Under the control of the computer, the direction of the power of these auxiliary thrusters and the original power system of the subship have reached an amazing synchronization, giving full play to the maximum and most effective power.
The auxiliary thruster is equipped with highly sensitive temperature, air pressure and other sensing devices, and all kinds of data are displayed in front of Xia Long in real time, and under the accurate calculation of the computer, the hydraulic nitrogen oxide will be injected into the auxiliary thruster at the most suitable time and proportion, so that the tail of the sub-ship will spew out several blue flames, so that the sub-ship can maintain high-speed sailing!
Unlike navigating a planet with an atmosphere, a spacecraft can be considered a "drag-free voyage" without much consideration for the drag caused by friction with gases.
Due to many factors, the sub-ship piloted by Xia Long sailed extremely smoothly on the smooth section of the initial section of the race, and the speed of the sub-ship stabilized 90 seconds after the start of the race, reaching the level of breaking the F2 speed record for the first time.
"The incredible Freedom of Life, judging from the data just obtained, reached the speed of breaking the record for the first time after 90 seconds of racing, and the time is definitely faster than the last time!" The narrator sighed.
"Brother Long is so mighty!" After hearing the explanation, Wang Qi in the mothership cheered for the first time.
The robot tulip poured cold water and said suspiciously: "Judging from the current situation, even a person who can't drive a spaceship can achieve such an effect, right?" It has nothing to do with Xia Long, right? ”
A fair remark made the people who built the sub-ships from No. 1 to No. 4 feel more cordial, and Alice also showed some smiles, but immediately looked worried.
Martin said calmly: "Indeed, from the current point of view, the main reason is that the performance of the sub-ship is good, and the few of you on the 1st are really amazing, creating an incredible spaceship!" Dr. Mel is even more remarkable for designing such a sub-ship! ”
No. 2 changed his old mantra and said proudly, "That's for sure!" The surprise is still to come, in order to equip the subship with auxiliary thrusters, I gave up a lot of sleep time, and the four of us did a long time of testing! ”
After Xia Long proposed the idea of improving the sub-ship, the people from No. 1 to No. 4 struggled for a while, and there were several disputes between them, and No. 1 and No. 2, who were clones, also had dark circles under their eyes because of this.
You must know that Xia Long has refreshed the speed record twice before, the first time was to refresh the original F2; The second time was to refresh myself, and it was a big refresh. But so far, just the speed of this first refresh, no one has been able to break it.
Cass was naturally also paying attention to the game, and sneered at Cass 1 beside him: "The location in the life-freedom mothership has been confirmed, right?" Get your ships ready and attack when the game is over! Even if you can't catch Xia Long and his spaceship, you have to let him fall off quickly! The rest of the game won't be easy! ”
"Yes, great master, I will deploy the warship according to your arrangement." After Cass 1 finished speaking, he left respectfully.
The speed of the sub-ship piloted by Xia Long remained at the level of the first record-breaking, and many could not continue to accelerate, but in order to stabilize the temperature of the power system so that the best performance in the later races.
The other spaceships have entered a more complicated section of the road, and the meteorites on the way are gradually increasing, and a group of Earth Circle People 7 series spaceships in the No. 5 city-state, with the help of these meteorites, it is convenient to continue to block the spaceships behind them, and it is convenient to expand their advantages.
By this time, most of the ship's power systems were already in optimal condition, and their speeds were starting to climb. Jeff's Earthdosphere 6 series transformation spaceship is already a representative, closely following behind the 7 series spaceship.
Taking advantage of the gap between several nearby spaceships dodging meteorites and blocking other spaceships, Jeff's spaceship adjusted its orientation slightly, and a burst of blue flames erupted behind him, coming to the first group.
Xia Long can be described as a master of the arts, relying on the advanced sub-ship, relying on himself to participate later, the track is empty, and he has continuously used nitric oxide to speed up from the beginning.
Other spaceships don't dare to do this, the initial track can be seen as an unhindered straight line, although it is very suitable for this acceleration method, but there are too many participating spacecraft, and how to run the power system, rashly use hydraulic nitrogen oxide to speed up, the cooling effect will damage the power system.
Therefore, Xia Long entered the game 3 minutes late, which also has some benefits, at least so far he has not encountered any other spaceships.
"According to the data we calculated, Xia Long's Life Freedom is shortening the distance between it and the leading Tuquan Man 7 series spacecraft with an advantage of about 0.1 seconds every 10 kilometers, but now this spacecraft is still in a stable section, and the sections of other spacecraft have entered a complex area."
"I believe you have also noticed that in this competition, many spaceships have added auxiliary thrusters such as hydraulic nitrogen oxide, and the Life Freedom is no exception, but this spacecraft has a lot more, with a full 12 auxiliary thrusters, which are neatly distributed in the tail, and this speed-up method has been used until now.
explained and continued the professional commentary: "I personally think that Life Freedom is in the accumulation stage, and its current speed can be easily reached without auxiliary thrusters, and it has not been able to climb the speed for a long time, Xia Long must have an idea!" Let's look forward to this spaceship continuing to work miracles! ”
