In this world, in the ranking of military power on the sea, the Eagle Sauce Kingdom and the Great Xia Kingdom ranked first and second respectively.

Naturally, the two countries have each other's large warships within each other's surveillance range.

On this day, a report from the Ministry of Defense was presented on the table of the Minister of Defense of the Eagle Sauce Country.

The report shows that one of the aircraft carriers of the Great Xia Kingdom has returned to the sea and has been in the port of the Great Xia Kingdom for several days.

Countries with aircraft carriers in the world generally do not let this kind of super warship idle in the port, and even if the aircraft carrier has a problem and needs to return to the port for maintenance, then it is difficult to hide it.

When the defense minister saw the report, he just smiled indifferently.

Because he thinks that the Great Xia Kingdom may be using this aircraft carrier to build a spaceship like the Night Owl One.

Thinking that his hive system was being deployed smoothly, he didn't take it too seriously.

After a while, however, a photo made him nervous.

This is a photo taken by the spy satellite of the Eagle Sauce Country, which shows that although the power system of the aircraft carrier of the Great Xia Kingdom has not been modified, there are some more equipment on the deck that I don't know what it does.

The Minister of Defense immediately summoned a group of weapons experts to study it.

But after researching for a long time, I didn't come up with a reason.

Hunter held the photo in one hand and looked at it with a magnifying glass in the other.

But just looking at it, cold sweat suddenly flowed down.

The Minister of Defense couldn't help but get nervous when he saw the change in Hunter's expression.

"Hunter, what did you find?"

Hunter put down the magnifying glass in his hand and said with blank eyes: "The equipment on this deck seems to be the same as the laser emission equipment of the Great Xia Kingdom's Heavenly Fire System. ”

One sentence immediately alerted everyone present, and they all picked up the photo and looked at it carefully.

At the same time, the Minister of Defense ordered his subordinates to bring the photos of the Skyfire system satellites that their spy satellites had secretly taken before.

After careful comparison, it turns out that Hunter is right.

Sure enough, the Great Xia Kingdom installed a laser emitting device on the deck that was exactly the same as the Sky Fire system.

This made everyone nervous.

Someone suddenly asked at this time: "Why didn't we install such a device on the Night Owl No. 1 before?" ”

"Our Night Owl 1 was able to go into space using the powerful power provided by Element 115, but despite this, the huge amount of energy required by the laser launcher was not available to our Night Owl 1, so we did not consider installing a laser launcher at that time," the Minister of Defense said. ”

Hunter was stunned.

"It seems that the purple element of the Great Xia Kingdom can provide far more energy than we imagined."

Someone else asked, "We already know the power of the Skyfire system, why are we so worried about just a few laser emitters?" ”

Hunter said coldly: "The Skyfire system does not have the ability to attack at an ultra-long distance, and the laser beam emitted will weaken with the increase of distance, so the Skyfire system cannot threaten our hive system." ”

The Secretary of Defense continued Hunt's words: "We don't know how many spacecraft the Great Xia Congress will modify, if there are multiple such spacecraft, they only need to sail within the range of the laser emitter in space, and our hive system is useless to it." ”

"But... Isn't there a self-destruct module in our hive system? ”

Hunter shook his head: "It's useless, no matter how powerful such a self-destruct module is, if they feel the power, they will attack our module at a very long range, so that if the module self-destructs, not only will it not pose a threat to the other party, but if the range of self-detonation is too close to the hive system, it may even destroy our own hive system." ”

Everyone fell silent, because at this moment they all suddenly realized a serious problem at the same time.

That is, if a spacecraft like the Great Xia Kingdom enters space, then the hive system they have worked so hard to build may not have the slightest meaning to exist.

For the Eagle Sauce Nation, the hive system they are proud of is indeed powerful enough.

No matter how powerful a system is, it has its own fatal shortcomings.

The disadvantage of the hive system is that although it uses element 115 as an energy supply, due to the large number of modules, if the Eagle Sauce Country wants the Hive System to play a role in space for a long time, it must use these energy sources sparingly, at least it is impossible to equip the same laser emitting device as the Great Xia Kingdom.

Soon, this matter reached the ears of the president, the number one person in the Eagle Sauce Country.

Needless to say, the president must have been outraged.

Because before deploying the Hive System, the Minister of Defense had sworn to him that the Hive System would definitely maintain the hegemony of the Eagle Sauce Country in the world for a long time.

But the current situation is that the hive system has not yet been deployed by a third, and it can already be determined that there is no threat to the Great Xia Kingdom.

As a result, the president of Eagle Sauce immediately convened a high-level meeting to discuss how to solve the immediate trouble.

At the meeting, the Minister of Finance mocked: "At that time, I completely disagreed with the deployment of the Hive System, this weapon system is the largest investment in our history, if we let the people know now that our system will not pose a threat to the Great Xia Kingdom even if it is deployed, I think the people will want to kill us." ”

The president followed: "It's just sad, and I can't imagine the ridicule of the people if the taxpayers knew that we were using their money to deploy such a useless system in space." ”

At this time, the high-level personnel present turned their eyes to the Minister of Defense.

But at this time, the Minister of Defense could only bow his head and not say a word.

The president said angrily: "Mr. Minister, we have invited you to this meeting today, not to silence you, we need you to give a reasonable explanation and a solution to this matter." ”

"Yes, Mr. Minister, at the very least, you have to let us know whether we should continue to invest in the hive system, after all, this is an astronomical amount, and we can't afford to watch this money go down the drain."

The Minister of Finance and the President sang and harmonized, and poured all the anger in their hearts on the Minister of Defense, and at the same time seemed to be ready to hand over this black cauldron to him to carry.

Hunter, as a representative of Deep Blue, was also attending this meeting at this time, and sat next to the Minister of Defense.

Seeing the Minister of Defense being watched by everyone, he naturally wanted to stand on the side of the Minister of Defense.

Because for him, if the Minister of Defense is removed from his post because of this matter, then their plans for the deployment of the hive system will definitely be shelved.

At that time, his plan to surpass Lu Chuan could only come to naught.
