"Very good."

Yan Shiyi was extremely satisfied with the test results, he knew the conventions and naming rules of the Great Qin Legion, "This kind of battleship needs to be named." ”

"This gray-black battleship is like a ghost in the starry sky, and it is so powerful, then call it a ghost-class attack ship, and I will make it a powerful attack ship."

Yan Shiyi looked at the people around him, and his heart was a little uncertain, the construction of a ghost-class battleship is easy, but it requires liquefaction ability, but the engine is relatively rough, how to solve this?

And the weapons and all kinds of equipment inside, how are we going to solve it? Do you use normal equipment?

"This is easy to do, we can build it separately, build the hull shell, engine, weapon shell, parts, and other materials can be used in the subtleties, there is no need to build all the crystals." Yan Twelve seemed to give a clear answer.

Yan Shiyi thought about it, he had walked into a misunderstanding, he really didn't want to build a battleship with all the crystals, so the performance was reduced.

"The engines of the battleship are built into separable crystal shells, and I divided the personnel into three parts, one part went to the gaseous planets to build the ghost battleship shell, one part built the engine shell, and the rest of the personnel stayed here to build the rest of the equipment needed for the battleship."

"The built warships form a fleet, so stay in the starry sky."

"Chief, then you need to give our fleet a name."

"When I came out, I promised the commander of the corps to build a mechanical unmanned fleet, and now that we have a clear method, building a fleet is no longer out of reach, and it is indeed necessary to have a name."

"We were the first to build this kind of ghost-class battleship, let's name it after the ghost in the future, we will call it the Ghost Mechanical Legion." The Ghost Legion subordinate to Great Qin was born.

The Tinder had just been repaired, and its role was useless except as a template for the battleship, at least now Yan Shiyi couldn't look down on the Tinder, which had a weaker structural performance than the Ghost Battleship.

As a result, the Tinder was completely dismantled, and the equipment, weapons, and engines inside were all turned into parts, which could be used as a reference for the construction of other warships.

Yan Shiyi didn't want the Tinder that followed him all the way to be annihilated like this, not to mention that the name of the battleship Tinder was personally given by the corps commander Qin Feng.

But at present, there are no other types of warships in Yan Shiyi's hands except for ghost battleships, and the temporary small mothership is a cargo spaceship.

Liquefaction and rebuilding a Ghost Battleship will destroy the overall form of the ship, and its performance will be reduced. Yan Shiyi's idea was to use the Tinder as the flagship of the Mechanical Legion, and now although he had no other choice, he still said what he thought in his heart.

Everyone didn't forget to communicate in addition to being busy, this kind of communication is different from humans, it doesn't need to use language, it's more like communicating with oneself, at least Yan Shiyi has this idea in his heart, he hasn't fully adapted to having these copies of himself or intelligent liquid machines.

"This is very easy to do, let's pick a crystal battleship and optimize it

, each part is carefully polished, to make a superb to use as a tinder number. ”

"This has another advantage, the Ghost Legion now has the same warships, and it is difficult for the enemy to determine which flagship it is, so the concealment effect is also good."

Speaking of which, Yan Shiyi's heart had already determined this idea.

"There's one more problem we need to solve." Yan Shiyi interrupted everyone's whimsical thoughts, "How many warships can we command or control by a single person now?" ”

"We don't know, we don't even have a complete battleship yet."

"We urgently need to expand the number of warships and practice them, even I haven't participated in an interstellar battle here, and I was evolving in the warehouse when the Legion was fighting." Yan Shiyi said.

"Let's get the Tinder up first, and then work hard to build the battleship according to the division of labor I just had." In the end, Yan Shiyi took the construction of the Tinder as the first task.

The crowd was busy.

Manufacturing parts is not difficult for the Yan Eleven who can liquefy, and the efficiency is also extremely high, this side devours the raw materials, and then devours the parts that were originally used as templates, and soon with the peristalsis of the liquid, a new part appears, and at the same time, the original parts are also optimized.

In particular, the metal parts have become denser and pureer, and the performance has been greatly improved, but it is still not comparable to crystal materials, but at present, it is obvious that Yan Shiyi is not able to make all the parts with crystals, and can only use crystals to manufacture some key components.

But there is one place that must be isolated with other materials, and that is the energy supply part of the engine and the crystal storage part as energy, if it is not isolated, it means that the entire battleship can be used as energy.

After all these were done, Yan Shiyi ushered in another headache, the crystals used as energy need to be liquefied by people like Yan Shiyi as support to obtain energy.

In this case, unless Yan Shiyi copied a million copies of himself, he would not be able to support a million ghost warships.

When Yan Shiyi hesitated, he didn't know who it was (the clone was almost the same as Yan Shiyi, and it was indistinguishable from the appearance alone) and cried out in surprise, "Leader, leader, I have found something that can solve the problem of control." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Look, this." As he spoke, he pointed to a pile of liquid on the ground and said, "I accidentally cut the liquid into a piece when I was making parts, and I wanted to take it back just now, but I didn't expect that this part could be controlled, just like my hand." ”

Not only can he control it, but Yan Shiyi can also control it, and his ability to control it stems from the fact that these people are all copies of his splits.

Yan Shiyi tried to control this piece of separated liquid to perform various actions, including liquefiing crystal hydrogen, but this piece of separation lost the ability to devour it. This made Yan Shiyi a little puzzled, but he quickly figured it out, devouring and reconstructing, this is not the ability of liquid, it is the ability generated by his own mutation, if it is not for the replication and splitting, Yan Twelve and they will not either

will have the ability to devour.

Since it can be controlled without using a clone, this is just right for the ghost battleship, but if you want the battleship to be able to sail and fight, you also need to have a smart brain, but now there is no smart brain, only a control system on the Tinder.

"How to solve the battleship control? We don't have core crystals, and we don't have brains. ”

"We are the brain, it's a big deal to copy more." Yan Twelve obviously didn't care about this.

"But the blue lazuli in my hand is all consumed, and I can't copy it even if I want to." Yan Shiyi said with some embarrassment, "Unless we try it directly with crystalline hydrogen."

There are still a lot of crystal hydrogen, Yan Shiyi did not hesitate to take a piece directly, and entered the liquefied state, devouring crystal hydrogen He has also done it in the gaseous planet, and there is no danger, he liquefies a crystal hydrogen very smoothly, and then turns it into pure energy distributed in his liquefied body, just like devouring blue lazuli.

Then he started copying, and everyone around him put down their work and watched the scene quietly.

Liquefies the body and separates, and the brain crystal replicates and splits, but the power core is not generated. The split came to an abrupt end, and when Yan Shiyi returned to his human form again, he saw that the brain crystal on the ground, and a large puddle of liquid, did not form a split clone.

Not exactly copying? Or did the replication fail?

If you want to say success, without the power core, it is impossible to form an intelligent mechanical body, because without an energy supply mechanism, it is impossible to reshape the liquefied body.

However, Yan Shiyi's attention kept wandering between the brain crystal and the liquid. This is also a good thing, at least I have obtained brain crystals, and a liquid that can activate crystal hydrogen.

Isn't that exactly what you need? There is no need to replicate a large number of intelligent machines, which is a complete waste of energy. It's enough to have these three hundred and sixty clones yourself.

"You guys try it and see if you can replicate that." Yan Shiyi pointed to the brain crystal and the liquid and said.

Everyone picked up the crystal hydrogen and liquefied it.

The final result was the same as Yan Shiyi's, they only obtained brain crystals and liquid bodies, and could not form intelligent mechanical bodies like them.

Yan Shiyi didn't hesitate, took the control core of the Tinder and devoured it directly, and then passed the control system to everyone present and the copied brain crystal.

"These brain crystals are used as the core of the battleship control to replace the brain of the mind, and the liquefied body is used as the material to activate the crystal hydrogen to build the power engine."

Built in this way, except for the weapons that are still a little weak now, the other parts are very good, after all, the resources and information that Yan Shiyi has obtained now are not sufficient, he thinks that even if these warships are built first, it is already good, and it doesn't matter if the power of the weapon is a little smaller, it can be completely compensated for by relying on the numerical advantage and the performance of the battleship.

Under the guidance of this thought, Yan Shiyi took the newly adjusted Tinder to descend to the interior of the gaseous planet again to build the hull of the ghost warship.

Since then, Yan Shiyi has led his brothers to bury their heads in building warships, and the warships have continued to grow

The space between the two planets was transported to the space between the two planets for storage, and the parts built on the planets were also transported in a steady stream to assemble. When nearly 200,000 ghost crystal battleships were built, Yan Shiyi stopped building.

The reason is simple, he found that if the number of clones is not expanded, the maximum number of warships can be controlled for flexible combat has been reached. If there are more, the battleship will not be able to command flexibly, and can only achieve general coordination.

This will lead to a reduction in the combat capability of the entire fleet, which is not what Yan Shiyi wants. The original plan to build a million ships could not be done, unless he continued to copy, but the replication required a space energy crystal like blue lazuli, he no longer had it, unless it was for this purpose to search or find the legion, or even find the distant mining star, and reach the predetermined territory.

Before setting off, Yan Shiyi ordered everyone to make crystal hydrogen as much as possible to fill all the spaces in all the battleships and prepare for the upcoming long-distance voyage.

When everyone was busy, he took advantage of the Tinder's repulsion of surrounding matter to deliberately go down to the hydrogen sea to see if the Tinder could reach the vicinity of the gaseous planetary core.

But unfortunately, although the shell of the Tinder is now strong, due to the slight lack of power, it is impossible to pass through the tens of thousands of kilometers thick hydrogen sea, so he has to give up.
