A1 hull.

"This is the hybrid?" Yang Yi frowned and looked at the hybrid corpse lying in the freezer cabin and asked.

"Yes. This hybrid is unlike anything the Empire has ever had...... I suffered a lot of losses in the previous encounters. A1 nodded in reply, "He's very good at psionic skills and melee combat...... It was the most coveted perfect hybrid unit in the Empire before. ”

Despite being separated from the freezer cabin, Yang Yi could still clearly feel the coercion of the spiritual energy from the remnants of this corpse, which made him a little breathless.

"Huh...... He knows more about hybrid manufacturing than Mobius...... If that old guy Narud had known, he didn't know what the expression would have been......"

"You're talking about a research ship...... Do you mean to let me go to an Prospector? ”

"The Prospector is currently the most common science ship in the Empire, and is the least difficult to obtain. However, you can also try to find some specialized research ships that are specially built. A1 replied, "Many research institutes sponsored by large corporations or wealthy people will order some special research ships. Although most of these research ships only specialize in one aspect and are barely armed, they are better than ordinary Prospector-class science ships in their field of expertise. ”

"Actually, even if there is no hybrid, I hope you can get your hands on at least one research ship as soon as possible. In addition to researching hybrids, such as the swarm virus samples we captured on Haven, the equipment wreckage of the unknown human forces looted on the battlefield, and the encrypted information obtained in our laboratory, etc., will all need to be cracked by professional research ships. ”

"Isn't it okay for Behemoth?"

"The way the swarm is studied is very different from that of humans, and while Behemoth is able to have a fluent daily conversation with you, when it comes to the professional side, I don't think Behemoth, as a mother worm, can give you satisfactory answers."

"So......" he asked, leaning back against the cryopod and asking A1, "do you have any ideas?" ”

"My advice is to ask for help from Yumoyan or Kailian." A1 replied after a moment of silence, "Yumoyan is the most technologically advanced of the three countries, and their achievements in scientific research ships are no worse than in other fields, not to mention that you also have an ally in Yumoyan's government, and you should also be able to get some help in acquiring scientific research ships." But...... Yumayan has been in a mess lately because of the election, you know. ”

"Kailian doesn't really have a lot of research in terms of research ships. However, since the Consortium always needs to explore new galaxies and planets to obtain more resources, the number and variety of scientific research ships in their hands must be not small. But if you ask Kailian for help, you must be prepared to be slaughtered. ”

"Of course, there's an easier way." A1 took out a small display screen from his pocket and handed it to Yang Yi, "You can place orders directly with various military enterprises in the star region." If you just need the most conventional Prospector-class science vessels, many military enterprises have ships that can be sold directly to you. If you want a purpose-built research ship, you'll need to place an order, and depending on your needs, the ship's completion cycle will vary. At present, the completion cycle of the special scientific research ship in the star sector is between eight months and one and a half years, and the longest construction time is the Pathfinder-class scientific research ship ordered by the Imperial Academy of Sciences to ATVX, which officially started construction the year before last and is expected to be delivered next year. ”

Yang Yi took the display screen as he listened, and it listed a number of well-known military enterprises in the star region and involved in the field of ship manufacturing.

“…… It's going to be expensive, right? ”

"Yes. The Pathfinder-class research ship mentioned above is by far the most expensive research ship, with a total budget of 170,000 credits. Generally, the budget of a purpose-built research ship fluctuates between 8,000 and 60,000 credits. ”

"It's so expensive...... he frowned, obviously because of the slight fluctuation in the price, "This is just the construction cost, and the follow-up maintenance cost should not be less, right?" ”

"Yes, but the maintenance cost of a research ship is different from that of a warship, and its maintenance costs mainly come from various research expenses on the ship, such as the maintenance of research equipment, the maintenance of the laboratory environment, and so on. Most research ships will avoid being drawn into battle, as the shock of a single shot is likely to cause damage to many experimental instruments and the environment. In comparison, the reactor fuel of the research ship and the maintenance cost of the ship itself are much smaller. ”

"So...... What about your advice? ”

"My advice is to seek the help of the Imperial military-industrial complex, if you can. Yumoyan is currently on the brink of civil unrest and will find it difficult to lend us a hand; The economic collapse of the Kemorian consortium is imminent, and they are likely to open their mouths to us over research ships. Although the imperial military industry may be black-hearted, at least they have not had problems in the manufacture and delivery of ships. It's going to be a long time, but at least we'll get a research ship that really suits our needs. ”

Yang Yi was a little hesitant. It wasn't that he hesitated A1's reason, but he feared that before his ship could be delivered, a vengeful queen would come to the door with a swarm of biters. Now that we've entered the end of a commander's campaign, it's time for a certain queen to take revenge. If nothing else, what if her swarm directly dismantles the shipyard that built for him? Although she didn't move during the battle, she had ordered the queen to dismantle things related to the imperial army, and he didn't want to......

"I see. A1, you go and contact our Vice-President. He must have left you his contact information before he left, right? Tell him we have a business to do. ”

“…… Are you serious? ”

He nodded earnestly.

"I remember you said you didn't want to get involved in Yumayan's affairs anymore."

"But after this Haven incident, I think I still have to get involved. Because UED is also involved. They pit me once in Haven, so I'll have to go back at least once. He tossed the display back to A1, "Besides, if UED really intends to score two goals, a unified Yumoyan would be more useful than a fragmented Yumoyan." ”

"Even if its leader is going to be a dictator?"

"There are already two dictators in the Star Sector, what does it matter if there is one more?"

“…… Two? Who else but the Führer? ”

"Do you really not know or are you pretending to be confused? Do you think Charl's hands are stained with the blood of hundreds of millions of people? ”

“…… Queen of Blades? What kind of dictator is she? ”

"Isn't she? Leader of the swarm, no one is below, and above ten thousand insects, okay? ”

“…… Commander, could you please go back and read the Introduction to Political Science and Ideology again? If you still think so after reading it...... For the sake of my reputation, please don't tell anyone that I'm your teacher. ”
