Chapter 179: New Jackdaw (2-in-1 Grand Chapter)
This side of the Jackdaw.
Nimeow was very conscientious and showed the monitoring screen of the space station command center to Wang Chao.
When he heard Gaius say, "This is the cornerstone of conquering the galaxy", Wang Chao almost squirted out the water in his mouth, but fortunately, the prosthetic man had a strong control over all parts of the body and directly controlled it.
He put down the water glass, wiped the water leaking from the corner of his mouth, and sighed, "I don't feel that my orders have been misinterpreted and diverged. ”
Helena: "This kind of communication is quite common, but generally it deviates so much from the original meaning, and it has to go through many transmissions, and this time the first transmission is distorted, mainly because Gaius is crazy. ”
Gale: "Can you save him by diagnosing him?" ”
Helena shook her head: "What I do now will only aggravate his symptoms, he's a little ...... Kind of trusting me too much. This trust is in quotation marks. ”
Wang Chao: "No matter, let's get the boat quickly, and then let's run it." ”
Nia: "I found out through open channels that there is a research ship that is moored in the shipyard, and because of troublesome things such as starting a war and removing AI, it has been parked in the harbor and no one cares about it, and now no one cares about it. ”
Wang Chao: "What kind of old research ship?" ”
Nia sent a 3D graphic of the old research ship directly to the home screen, and also sent one to everyone through the ship's network - one should be sent to everyone except Lily.
Gale was the first to comment: "It's all a scientific research ship, why is this one so much bigger than us?" ”
Wang Chao: "Because this research ship can't land on the surface of the planet." Our small boat can land. ”
Nia: "Actually, we can use our ship as a login and hang it under the belly of the big ship, so that we can land on the planet to mine and smelt, get materials to transform the hull, and make the hull into a model that no one else can recognize." ”
Nimeow: "Why are you making such a big boat, we're all about that." ”
Nia: "There are fully equipped laboratories on that ship to continue researching the Dao. There is also an electron microscope necessary for the study of microscopic particles, and recruiting an expert in nanomechanics will definitely greatly increase our understanding of the Tao. ”
"No, no," Nimeth waved her hand, "we can't just pull people on the boat, you two haven't caused a leak for the time being, it doesn't mean that the people who pull it later won't leak." Hasn't the improved gravity engine already been built? Let's take it and hurry away. ”
Wang Chao: "Okay, let them send it over." Nimeth contacts Gaius. ”
Nimeow immediately connected to Gaius, and then Lily suddenly said, "This Gaius, didn't you think Helena had put a doppelganger in his place?" Wouldn't it be strange that we always give orders through contact like this? ”
Nimeow: "We're communicating, and your words make Gaius more troublesome to hear." ”
Lily smiled, "You must have intercepted it, so it's fine." ”
Nimeow sighed, and the whole person lay on the table: "Although I really didn't send the real situation in the cabin, I'm a little unhappy to be pinched by you like this." ”
Looking at Nimeow's expression, it was quite unhappy.
Lily smiled happily and continued to ask Helena, "So is there something going to happen to this?" ”
Helena: "No, you saw Gaius's speech just now, and it was his hallucination. It was actually the content of his own thoughts, but now it has become what 'Julian' said, and it has become the holy decree of Organization X. To be honest, I'd love to take a closer look at Gaius as an individual.
"He has the potential to greatly advance my understanding of paranoia, and he may be able to take human psychology a lot further in this field."
Gale: "I see, you two scientists, both want to write papers to make a name for themselves!" ”
Helena: "I don't deny that I have this idea, but is it a bit rude for you to say that about Nia?" ”
Nia was shocked: "Huh? What's the matter with me? ”
Helena: "The husky just said you're a fame fisherman. And I know that you really want to satisfy your curiosity. ”
Nia looked at the ceiling, "If you want to say that you don't have the idea of selling your reputation at all, it must be fake, so Miss Gale is not wrong." ”
"Gale Wind 'Miss'~" Gale smiled happily, "I'm also called Miss, I kind of like Nia's little sister." ”
"Huh? Little sister? Nja blinked, "Ah, it's because I look like a child." ”
Nimeow: "Hey, Gaius is still waiting, say what you want to say." ”
Wang Chao cleared his throat at this time: "Dictator Gaius, we are very glad that you have completed the gravity engine we requested according to the design drawings, and also carried out the test, now please send the second product off the assembly line and install it in the ......"
Gaius interrupted Wang Chao's words: "Your Excellency Archon for Life, we still strongly urge you to replace it with a new spaceship, your spaceship already has two reactors and two gravity engines, and installing a third engine will cause the entire cooling structure to collapse.
"While the Greyhound class is famously known for its potential for modifications, it's clear that your ship has reached the limit of its modifications. In fact, in the time you're away, we've completed the design of your ship. ”
As he spoke, a ship's design was sent via encrypted communication.
Wang Chao spent a millisecond browsing the entire design and found that this was an enhanced version of the Greyhound class, which basically had all the functions of the Greyhound class, including the ability to land on planets.
After reading the design drawings, Nia shook her head: "I still prefer the large research ship that is now vacant, and there are more laboratories." With Gaius's design, we had to continue to build a testing ground in the warehouse if we wanted to test our superpowers. ”
Gale patted his chest: "As the lord of the warehouse, I have allowed you to set up an experimental field in the warehouse!" ”
Nia: "But the research ship must be better!" ”
Helena: "Alright, whatever, decide quickly." ”
Wang Chao said to Gaius: "We have found that there is a research ship in the Apollodorus shipyard that is not used for the time being, and we hope to modify that one." ”
Nia raised her hands and cheered: "Yay! ”
Gaius apparently had no idea that such a boat existed, and there was a brief pause in his movements, apparently checking the data.
Half a second later, he smiled and said, "No problem, we will immediately start rebuilding this ship, it should be completed soon." ”
Wang Chao: "Also, let me remind you, don't dismantle the ship's automation system!" We do not exclude the use of automated systems. ”
It's better to say that the obvious overkill of the Union Cluster is the problem, they have dismantled everything that has anything to do with artificial intelligence, and they don't do automation anymore.
"Don't worry. Our marine engineers have the answer, and the retrofit will be completed in 24 hours. ”
Wang Chao raised his eyebrows, the productivity of this world is really surplus.
"Then we'll wait for the good news." After saying this, Wang Chao turned off the communication.
Nia: "We're going to test our superpowers for the past 24 hours?" ”
Wang Chao: "No, don't worry. Although we feel that leaks are a matter of time, it is better to be restrained before tricking into a new ship. ”
Nyoa looked rather disappointed, her shoulders drooping.
**
24 hours later.
Wang Chao, accompanied by Gaius, visited the modified "Jackdaw".
The new ship was based on the idle research ship found by Nia, and the biggest improvement in appearance was the addition of a long bridge cabin on the back of the research ship.
Wang Chao frowned when he saw this bridge cabin: "Isn't this the bridge you talked about at the beginning?" Didn't we say don't? ”
Gaius: "But Julian told me that you actually like this bridge cabin. ”
Wang Chao was shocked, can this "Julian" still distort his "will"? He glanced at Helena, who said to Gaius, "Mr. Dictator......
"I'm the 'acting officer' now." Gaius said respectfully, "I have amended the laws of the United Cluster in accordance with your wishes, and I, the deputy, will manage the entire United Cluster on behalf of Mr. Honorary Life Archon. ”
Good guy, Helena said that the so-called "Julian" is actually Gaius's inner thoughts, this thing has long wanted to dominate the entire United Star Cluster, and now it has a different way to achieve it.
It is estimated that he used to want to be the emperor of space Rome, and now this goal has been achieved - just one more "emperor" who is not very careful.
Helena seemed to be more interested in Gaius's "case": "Mr. Acting Officer, every time we come to Caesar in the United Star Cluster in the future, we invite you to come to my clinic for three hours of consultation. ”
Helena obviously wanted to study Gaius, but he directly misunderstood: "Do you need to strengthen your control over me?" Got it. While I feel Julian has done a good job, I will never go against you. ”
So Julian is doing well, is he doing too well!
Helena: "Anyway, every time we go to Caesar in the future, you'll be the right one." Oh, we're on Caesar's Star right now, and hopefully you'll have three hours to squeeze in later, okay? ”
Gaius: "No problem! But now let me show you around the new ship, shall we? ”
Wang Chao made a gesture of please.
So the group got on board under the guidance of Gaius.
Gaius: "The foundation of the new Jackdaw is the former research ship of the United Star Cluster, which is generally used to carry out five-year interstellar exploration missions, so the ship is equipped with complete living and entertainment facilities, which can ensure the life and entertainment of 2,000 crew members......"
Wang Chao couldn't help but look at Nia, who had to ask for this boat. A ship that can accommodate two thousand people, but only six people in the end, are you not afraid that there are too many empty corridors and beds and are haunted?
Apparently unconcerned about this, Nia asked, "Have you kept all the scientific facilities on the ship?" ”
"We have preserved," said Gaius, hastenedly, "not only the scientific research facilities, but also the psychology clinic that Professor Helena can use." and lecture theatres where professors usually give lectures to students. ”
Wang Chao: "So complete? ”
"Yes, this ship was originally designed to allow professors to take their students on space research expeditions."
Nia was stunned: "But I applied so many times, and I didn't get a chance to get on the ship at all!" ”
Helena: "If you didn't get your application, that's something else, dear Miss Nia." By the way, Acting Officer Gaius, since there is a psychological clinic on this ship, I would like to ask you to lead the way, and we will do a psychological treatment by the way. ”
Gaius: "Understood. Please let me finish my work first. As with all ships, the space behind the airlock is a cargo compartment, which facilitates the movement of goods. At the end of the warehouse is the main elevator, which is a passenger and freight elevator, and the truck used in the warehouse can be driven into the elevator. ”
Gale looked at the huge warehouse and exclaimed, "Wow, I haven't lived in such a big house yet!" ”
No, do you still have to live in the cargo hold after all the ships have changed?
Wang Chao: "You give me a room to sleep in." How many rooms are there on board? ”
Gaius: "There are twenty luxurious suites for professors!" ”
Nia frowned: "There are so many suites, don't take me one!" ”
Wang Chao said to Gale, "Did you hear that? Choose a favorite suite to live in, and don't lie in the warehouse anymore. ”
"Eh~ I want to live in a big house! Besides, isn't it right for me, a manual laborer, to live in a warehouse? ”
You just want to have the big house to yourself.
Gaius: "Can you continue visiting?" OK? Then please get on the elevator. ”
As soon as I entered the elevator, the gale began to shout again: "Such a big elevator!" The elevator was almost a quarter of the Jackdaw's hold. ”
Lily smiled: "Gale is like that Grandma Liu." ”
"What do you mean?" Gale looked at Lily strangely, but she immediately retrieved Grandma Liu, "Ah, ancient figures, let me see what she looks like...... Right? I'm obviously much more beautiful than Grandma Liu! ”
Lily: "That's your attitude. ”
Gaius: "The elevator goes up to the first floor, and there is the ship's production workshop. ”
Wang Chao: "And the production workshop? ”
"Yes, there are LV5 printers here to meet some of the production needs during the scientific expedition. For example, if you want to build some landing capsules and probes, you can build them in the production workshop.
"In addition, there is a biological production workshop here, and this ship can produce some protoplasmic vegetables and melons and fruits, which can be used to maintain the morale of the ship's members."
After Gaius finished speaking, Helena snorted disdainfully: "It is a purely psychological effect to think that raw vegetables and fruits are more delicious, just like watching the chef cook will make the food more fragrant." ”
In the high-end restaurants of this era, the chefs are all actors, and their acting skills are more important than their cooking skills, but in fact, the dishes they make are similar to the dishes they make are similar to those made by machines.
Gaius took Wang Chao and his entourage around the factory and returned to the upper and lower floors of the elevator.
"This is a research area with a total of six large laboratory clusters. Of course, the group of telescopes that Professor Nia will use for his research is at the end of the research area, and the telescopes are all installed at the head of the research ship. ”
The elevator that Gaius led the group to take was actually at the tail of the ship, and beyond that was the ship's working fluid engine and propellant tank.
After listening to the introduction, Ni Meow looked at Wang Chao and gestured with the superego: "Someone should be thinking, six laboratory groups, just recruit six professors on the ship, right?" ”
Wang Chao pretended not to see it.
Gaius continued: "The next floor is the living quarters on the ship, which, as I mentioned earlier, can accommodate up to 2,000 people, and has complete entertainment facilities, including a cinema, café, and so on. If a Lifelong Archon needs it, we can immediately staff all these services! ”
Wang Chao: "No need. ”
Gaius: "But the supermarket or something......"
Wang Chao: "It's enough to have robots. I know you've destroyed both the robots and the AI, but since you can complete a spaceship in 24 hours, you should be able to print the robots we need right away, right? ”
Gaius: "Yes, yes, but right now we can only produce robots that look very different from humans. ”
"That's fine."
As soon as Wang Chao finished speaking, Gale patted his chest: "It's okay, I'm my father-in-law's playful robot!" So nothing else is needed! ”
Shut up, what if someone misunderstands?
Gaius smiled politely and said respectfully: "Next is the last floor of the elevator, which is also the largest part of this renovation, please allow me to introduce it to you." ”
Wang Chao had a bad premonition.
Gaius: "This is the bridge!" ”
Sure enough!
When the elevator door opened, Wang Chao was blinded by the resplendent outside.
Helena: "This is the bridge?" It's more like the throne room of a king! ”
Wang Chao stepped out of the elevator and looked up at the dome: "This is ...... Screen? ”
"That's right, the panoramic screen allows you to see the vast sea of stars outside." Gaius introduced, "The holographic projector in front can be holographically projected according to your requirements, whether it is your image, or the image of the planet being orbited, or the current state map of the galaxy. ”
Wang Chao raised his eyebrows, and his gaze fell on the bulge on the other side of the projector.
"What's that one at the end?"
Gaius said respectfully, "It's your throne." We've set it up on a pedestal that's 6.18 meters higher than the entire bridge platform, so you can see everyone on the platform! ”
Wang Chao scratched his head: "That, I'm just a small shrimp in X organization." ”
Before this, Wang Chao had always avoided mentioning Organization X by himself, in order to expose his stuff in the future, and he would have an excuse and say that it was all made up by you.
But at this time he couldn't help it.
Gaius smiled, "Actually, we can all see that you don't really care about Organization X. ”
Nonsense, then the organization doesn't exist, do you finally see it? Old foxes!
Gaius: "The reason is simple, you have a transcendent position in Organization X. ”
……
The gale didn't hold back and laughed.
Lily tapped her on the shoulder.
Wang Chao looked embarrassed: "This is what Julian told you again?" ”
Gaius: "Of course, Julian told me. ”
Wang Chao looked at Helena.
Helena: "Mr. Gaius, we're done, let's go to the clinic." Just so you can show me the way. ”
Don't worry, I've just finished the sun, and I'm still in the stage of getting 11 hours of sleep a day. I don't know how many times I've been yang, I don't feel any discomfort, I just want to sleep.
