(Everyone's New Year is booming~)

The Mothership Life Freedom has entered the farm base and started overall repairs, and in the first station with Cass's expeditionary force, after the mothership Thunder paralyzed an enemy ship, it was evacuated with stealth, and the damage was not serious, and there was enough inventory left in the base to deal with this repair.

There are also two large enemy ships, due to the space constraints of the base, can only be anchored outside the base, and one is a simple repair, temporarily acting as a transport spaceship, from time to time there are collection spacecraft in and out, carrying the scarce resources of the carrier to the base.

Another seriously injured enemy ship, which was pulled back from the vicinity of the rare earth mining area by the mothership as a coolie, was slowly dismantled by Keton's robots, and the recyclable device was sorted out and brought back to the base to maximize the residual heat.

The relevant personnel gathered in one place in the base, and the friendship between Clone 1 and the robot Martin was getting better and better, and it was almost time to cut the blood of the chicken and burn the yellow paper.

"Martin, we have a good relationship with Xia Long, open the back door, and I'll reconfigure an arm for you, right? How long time has passed, and not installing it will definitely affect your feeling of operation of the multi-functional combat platform in the future! ”

"Forget it, now we are almost in ruins here, I am a robot, the operation feels easy to recover, it is precisely because we are close to Xia Long that we can't use the existing limited resources at will, let other damaged robots repair it first."

Tulip came to the two of them and wondered, "Martin, according to what you said, you mean to wait until our resources are abundant and we can build a better device, and then connect your arm?"

There was a hint of disdain in No. 1's eyes, could it be that Martin, a robot with a low original configuration, would be so scheming?

Martin was also questioned, and after a moment of silence, he said frankly in the robot's analysis mode: "Okay, Miss Tulip, I did have this kind of thought in my latent consciousness, about 0.5%, I prefer to give priority to letting others fix it first, after all, I can operate the combat platform with one hand."

Medellin had already changed into a protective armor and flew towards here with Xia Long, and after falling smoothly, Xia Long smiled: "Tulip, I haven't seen you for a while, why did you come to embarrass your robot compatriots?" Besides, Martin is now also in the category of people with disabilities! Oh, Martin, don't be angry, nothing else, little joke! ”

"As you say, it's funny, I'm really disabled now!" Martin deliberately swung his shoulder, which had lost his arm, and Medellin felt that the atmosphere on Charlon's side was very relaxed.

"Don't care about Tulip's doubts, you can fix it whenever you want, or if you have any ideas, you can say it now, anyway, you have a super technician friend No. 1!" Medellín agrees to join his den of thieves, much to Charlon's good mood.

Martin thought for a while and said, "In this case, I think two arms are a bit insufficient for me, No. 1 can help me improve it, can I fit eight arms?" Or maybe four of a kind? ”

"You're so strong, Martin!" No. 1 and No. 2 deserve to have stayed together for a long time, and their tone of voice is very consistent.

"Isn't my idea realistic?"

"In terms of machinery, as long as you can think of it, I and No. 2 should be able to help you build it, and the sub-ship can be built, not to mention your arms!"

Xia Long interrupted the conversation between the two different lifeforms: "I would like to introduce you to a new member, this is the human Medellin, the one who pulled your rescue pod into the farm base before is this robot Martin who lacks an arm, and No. 1 is also one of the builders of the sub-ship."

"It's nice to meet you, Martin, you're really amazing, the battlefield was so chaotic at that time, and I could use the capture fork to pull back the rescue pod that could save me undamaged, fortunately I was unconscious first, otherwise I would have been stunned directly; No. 1 The spaceship you built is really nothing to say, I just tried the Life Freedom subship, and it's very good! ”

Charon continued: "Medellin is quite a good pilot, and Martin is one of the best attackers! Martin, do you still want to sail a warship? ”

"Of course I want to, it's a pity that my flying ability is average, otherwise on the side of the rare earth mine, with my accuracy to cover everyone's retreat, it will be easy to deal with the enemy's anti-stealth device, and Wang Qi will not be able to wake up until now." Martin and Wang Qi followed Xia Long at about the same time, and they both followed the No. 1 people to learn secretly, and their friendship was also quite good.

No. 1 seemed to understand something, and his eyes became a little hot: "Xia Long, you brought Medellin and Martin together, I have a feeling that you don't want to build a new type of warship, right?" Combine the strengths of these two? ”

"Hehe, I didn't have this plan originally, but No. 2 just reminded me! Medellín has super flying ability, but not combat awareness; Martin is just the opposite, these two are paired together, they just complement each other, it will be a terrifying combination! ”

"I'm not like No. 2, I always have so many complaints on my lips, I've been really busy lately, I've just regained power from two failed enemy ships, and now I have to develop a new type of warship, but Martin, don't worry, isn't it just a few arms? We will definitely give you the perfect configuration! "When it comes to building spaceships, the No. 1 crew has a natural passion.

Every war will lead to the rise of science and technology, and the new warship developed by Medellín and Martin is just a small flame on the side of Chalon, which is about to be tailor-made.

In terms of Kelly's time distribution, a considerable part of it is used for ideological cultivation and suppression of illness; The rest is to study astronomy and detectors, except for finding thieves from time to time to make a little girl's temper.

The repair of the USS Life Freedom will not take much time this time, and when the time comes, it will sail again and act as a coolie to ambush the copper mine area and tow back the damaged enemy mothership, and launch the E-star probe again on the way.

After the mothership sets sail, the two enemy ships that temporarily serve as transport ships will continue to the farm base one after another, and the robots under Keton will also be completely busy, repairing the two large warships that already belong to Xia Long as much as resources allow.

Perhaps Cass's expedition caused a heavy blow to the farm base, but Xia Long also made a lot of money, and a lot of space junk after the war alone can be directly recycled, and many warships were out of order after electromagnetic attacks, and there was no damage.

Of the four enemy ships that were disabled, except for one that was hopelessly dismantled, the remaining three were only damaged by the outer layers and the electronic devices failed, and the real damage was not serious, as long as there were enough resources to repair it, it could be put into battle again.

With Xia Long's current productivity and resource supply, it is very difficult to build a large warship independently, even if it can be built for a long time, once it is built, it will affect the production efficiency of other aspects, and the Mothership Life Freedom is only a semi-finished product in this area far away from New Blue Star.

A few days later, Xia Long landed in a residential area in the base with several people from No. 1, all of whom were wearing excellent protective armor, and here were all returnees from City-State No. 6, and Kelly's usual routine was also here.

"Thief Xia Long, so mighty! Came to my territory with a group of people fully armed, and didn't say hello? Wearing protective armor and flying directly over like this, I don't know if our No. 6 city-state is famous for this? There is a saying that what is said, who is really playing with a big knife in front of whom! Kelly directly accused the guy who stole her first kiss.

After greeting the rest of the returnees one by one, Xia Long said to the little girl, "Miss Kelly, your territory seems to be within the range of my den of thieves, right?"

"Stupid! What's the matter with you? Let you, the leader of the thieves, come over in person, and your face will be a lot worse if you don't see it for a few days! Kelly's smile was still sweet.

"Considering that you have a lot of scientific and technological talents here, I have sorted out some information from Dr. Mel's data box, all about stealth techniques and materials, and I hope you and the number 1 will work together to develop a more effective anti-stealth device!"

It's a matter of their own lives, and whether they can return to Earth in the future, without Kelly speaking, these returnees have expressed their willingness to study together, whether it is a more sophisticated anti-stealth device in the planning, or other technical fields in the future.

Xia Long made a lot of summaries from this war, if Cass's expeditionary fleet did not have stealth skills, with its own superior electromagnetic attack, even if the farm base was damaged, it could paralyze all ten enemy ships one by one, and after the war, it would be equivalent to one more fleet; If Xia Long's anti-stealth ability is better in this war, the losses will be much less.

In Dr. Mel's data box, there is no mention of how to crack invisibility, probably because he didn't expect that Dory and David would use invisibility skills to exchange with Cass for resources because of the establishment of a home.

Xia Long's idea is that the key to the stealth technique is the outer material, and if a sensing device can be developed, it will be very sensitive to this material, even if the spacecraft is in a distant invisible state, it can be detected, so that the effect of invisibility can be recognized.

In the No. 3 city-state, a father and son chatted about the war of the expedition against Xia Long, and Carman smiled lightly: "It seems that you are still a little conservative, you have received false news a long time ago, you are still serious, Xia Long started with the Life Freedom, in such a short time, it is possible to mass-produce sub-ships."

"Now our No. 3 city-state is the strongest, but it is also on the cusp of the limelight, it is understandable to be appropriately conservative, in the face of Xia Long's high-end technology, this expedition lost four warships, such a result is still acceptable to the people, but it also seriously cut off Xia Long's supply, we slowly train our troops like this, and slowly consume them until they bring him down, what life freedom is in the end, what data box is gone?"

Seeing that his son was so thoughtful, Carman smiled: "I'm old, and I can't compare to you in terms of strategy, but I have to remind you that Xia Long has high-end technology in hand after all, although the sub-ship has not been mass-produced, but according to the report of the spy you left on Xia Long's side, the Chitu warship he developed is very good, and it is estimated that it will not be worse than the deadly warship designed by Vero!" ”

"Father, I will take your teachings to heart! But don't laugh at my conservative expedition this time, the anti-stealth device you designed can only play a mediocre role in this war, and I still had high hopes at the time! The conversation between Cass and his son was extremely lighthearted, more like a joke between friends.

"I know this, I've been hibernating for too long, and I haven't been in line with the real world, but through this war, I have inspiration again, and when the newly developed anti-stealth device comes out, the effect will be much better than now, and this time it won't disappoint you!"
