Once you've decided on your next move, it's time to wait for the ship to finish loading.

Wang Chao didn't expect that it would only take 24 hours to transform a spaceship, but it would take 26 hours to resupply the spaceship, and it would take two more hours.

In other words, in this era, the man-hours required to produce things are already less than those consumed by logistics.

Maybe because of this, people are more inclined to make things themselves than buy things through logistics - anyway, everyone has LV5 printing capabilities, as long as the resources are enough, theoretically anything can be rubbed by hand.

Wang Chao let everyone move freely and waited for the loading to be completed.

Twenty-six hours later, the New Jackdaw's hold was filled with biomass and a variety of minerals, ready to sail.

Wang Chao sat on his throne and looked at the people on the bridge deck below.

He immediately noticed that there were few people, so he asked, "Why didn't Nimeow come?" ”

Nimeth immediately responded in the communication: "Of course I'm lying in the computer room!" ”

Gale: "I've sat on the cooling seat over there, and it's comfortable." ”

The computer room has three seats with an external cooling system, and it looks like it can accommodate three hackers working together at the same time. However, the hacker job is not much expensive, anyway, there is so much computing power, so it is better to let the three miscellaneous fish share than to hand them all over to a top hacker.

Gale apparently ran over and lay down the remaining cooling seat.

Wang Chao looked at the front chest of Gale Wind: "Won't you be frostbitten when you lie on the cool seat?" ”

There are still many human beings on Gale's body, and if you soak it directly in the coolant of the cooling seat, you will get frostbite.

Nimeth said angrily, "This guy has already been in the medical cabin." Or did I ask the robot to remove her from the coolant, but luckily she found it early, but her chest was frozen. ”

Gale laughed: "Father-in-law, don't worry, the broken part has been completely regenerated." Anyway, the medical center of this ship is also a 12-hour course of treatment, I thought that if I changed ships, I could be cured faster. ”

Helena: "Because all the medical pods in this world are made according to the same initial design, if you want to treat faster, you have to use a distributed rapid culture device, which separates the necrotic part of you, grows and then surgically replaces it."

"In that case, only the suture part needs to be grown by the culture medium, and it is usually about the same for three hours in the medical cabin. The entire process is estimated to be completed in less than six hours, which is faster than a medical cabin. ”

Wang Chao asked suspiciously: "Then why not use this method, but let people lie in the medical cabin for twelve hours?" ”

Helena shrugged: "Because the distributed accelerated culture device may be problematic, the accelerated culture may grow crooked, and it may not necessarily produce organs that can be transplanted into the human body. Therefore, the whole process needs to be supervised by professionally trained and experienced biology professors. ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Gale shouted, "Then let's quickly kidnap a biology professor!" ”

Wang Chao: "Shut up." ”

Nia said: "I have connected the main observation equipment of the spaceship to me, to be honest, the amount of data is a bit large, can you please Miss Black Cat divide a part of the computing power to help?" ”

Wang Chao turned his head to look at Nia and found that she was sitting on a protruding platform on the right side of the bridge deck, with a thick cable stuck in the back of her head. Just by looking at the caliber of this cable, you can know how much information is transmitted.

So Wang Chao instructed Ni Meow: "Give a part of the computing power to the professor, we also need her to strengthen her detection ability and control the gravity engine." ”

“…… Got it. Nimeow's voice sounded a little unhappy, after all, computing power is above all else for hackers, and abundant computing power can allow a crappy hacker to win a master.

Wang Chao didn't know how Nimeow allocated the computing power, he only knew that Nia sincerely thanked "Miss Black Cat" after getting the computing power.

Helena looked at Nya and walked to the other chairs, "Although I can't help the ship on the way, let's install the operator." ”

Hearing this, Gale Storm also hurriedly found a chair to sit down, posing as if he was operating the spaceship, but it took less than a second to break the work, and turned back to ask Wang Chao: "How is it?" Isn't it a little feeling? ”

Wang Chao: "It's a little bit. Anyway, Lily, you can sit too, there's no need to stand all the time. ”

Lily then found a chair on the bridge and sat down.

Gale: "You don't understand, she wants to sit next to the throne." Gaius really can't do things, why do they only put a throne on the throne platform? The queen's position is not given either! ”

Lily argued, "I didn't. Besides, I have to sing at any time, and it's troublesome to sing while sitting on the throne platform, and now I can use the bridge deck as my stage at any time. ”

Wang Chao was about to speak, but was preempted by the gale: "Wait a minute, I know what we lack here!" Father-in-law, we lack some strange crew here! ”

"And a vintage wooden steering wheel, huh?" Wang Chao immediately understood what Gale was going to say.

This is actually the standard configuration of Japanese animation in the cosmic science fiction of the 70s of the 20th century: a crew with strange shapes and incomplete facial features, a retro steering wheel, and an uncle captain wearing a stand-up collar classical military uniform.

Later, this retro setting gradually became less popular, but in the 90s, Hideaki Anno still played a tribute in "The Mystery of Sapphire".

Wang Chao himself likes this retro setting very much, especially after a certain "Super Robot Wars" includes the battleship and Captain Harlock of "Space Pirate Harlock", and he can't put it down.

In a game like "Super Robot Wars", which highlights robots, who doesn't like a battleship that can fight better than robots?

Lily smiled, "I know, I know!" ”

Wang Chao: "In which "Galaxy Dead Redemption" have I played a similar role? ”

Lily: "It's Super Galaxy Dead Redemption 999, and I really like the way you look in it." I also like the crew members played by those special actors. ”

As soon as Lily mentioned it, Wang Chao remembered all the things he had done when he was filming this film. In fact, the crew in that film is not a live-action actor, but a robot - that figure really has to be played by a robot.

Helena frowned: "How do you feel that Lily is more familiar with your work than you are?" ”

Lily: "I'm his number one fan!" ”

Helena looked at Wang Chao meaningfully: "So...... Are you a fan? ”

Gale: "That's what he is." I don't know how much Lily slept before. ”

Wang Chao can't refute it, because "Bounty Hunter Wang Chao" is indeed a scumbag who is merciful everywhere, and the ghost knows how many of his fans he has slept with.

Lily patted her chest: "I will be the first woman in his life who will come and not leave!" ”

Gale: "I'm the second!" But there seems to be something wrong with saying this to my father-in-law. ”

Nimeow: "Don't talk about this, Bridge, the port has opened the exit channel for us, we need to leave the port quickly." ”

Nia glanced at the megaphone: "Miss Black Cat actually complained with the megaphone, and I always feel that she is a little unhappy?" ”

Helena: "Probably she originally thought that only her partner was the woman who would not leave Wang Chao's life, but now this uniqueness has been broken, so she is angry." ”

"Liar, you shut up for me."

Helena spread her hands.

Gale has already called in the robots through the ship's Starlight network and started printing rudder discs on the bridge - yes, the very retro wooden rudder discs that seem to have been removed from the days of sail warships.

Gale: "The rudder is easy to solve, but what about the strangely shaped crew?" We're all so pretty, obviously out of place. ”

At this time, Page suggested: "You can modify a few maintenance robots to play." The ship's printing capabilities allow you to transform a maintenance robot into a shape that matches your description in just a few hours. ”

Ni Meow urged angrily: "Don't fix these things that are gone, the entire port is cut off from ships to make way for us." ”

The new Jackdaw is a large ship, and this kind of large ship is not as simple as the previous 60-meter Jackdaw, and in order to avoid accidents, the entire space station will suspend ship access to make way for the spacecraft.

Wang Chao: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, have you checked the spaceship to make sure that no one is stealing?" ”

The new Jackdaw was so big that there were more than a hundred of the ship's exterior hatches alone, and who knows if anyone had snuck aboard.

Nimeow: "I personally controlled the robot to patrol every outer hatch and was sure that the hatch showed no signs of opening. The goods that were shipped in were also carefully inspected and there were no problems at all.

"If you're worried, I'll arrange for the ship's maintenance robots to patrol intensively to ensure that all the bad guys who sneak into the spaceship can't hide."

Wang Chao: "Yes, I'll leave it to you to arrange the patrol." So let's set sail. ”

Gale stood in front of the rudder wheel that had just been printed, put on an eyepatch to block one eye, and played the role of helmsman: "Set sail!" Left rudder five! ”

Helena frowned: "Your way of shouting is a bit strange, what I found on the Internet says that this is the shouting of the navy in the pre-aerospace era?" Or is it the shouting of the Japanese Navy? ”

Wang Chao: "She and her former stepfather are both Japanese fans. ”

Lily: "You're not far behind. ”

Wang Chao: "I just like some of the works, not as good as them." ”

Nia looked at Gale who was happily playing with the rudder and said, "Sometimes I really envy Gale Wind's state of life, carefree. ”

Wang Chao: "That's not it, she doesn't even want superpowers, and the 'Dao' has not changed at all in her." ”

Helena held her chin and said thoughtfully, "Are you satisfied with the status quo......?"

At the same time of dialogue, Wang Chao controlled the spacecraft to undock with the space station, and used the spacecraft's attitude control engine to push the spacecraft away from the space station.

Too close to the space station, the ignition of the ship's main engine could cause an accident.

After all, this is not the main engine of the previous small ship, the main engine of this kind of large ship sprays up and the jet may cause the small ship or operation boat that is involved to disintegrate directly, and the people on it will be vaporized before they can realize what is happening.

The massive new Jackdaw and the space station are drifting apart.

Wang Chao directly adjusted the image of the space station to the panoramic screen of the bridge, which made people feel that the space station was above everyone's heads, and gradually moved away.

In fact, this picture was captured by the optical equipment at the bottom of the spacecraft, because the space station is actually docked to the cargo compartment at the bottom.

Gale looked up and saw the picture, and the performance became more energetic: "The main engine is ignited, and both sides are at full speed!" ”

Nia looked at Caesar Star with only the edge on the side: "It's been more than ten years since my parents sent me from the remote agricultural world to Caesar Star to study, and I'm finally going to say goodbye." ”

Helena: "Reluctantly? ”

"I can't bear my students, I don't know if they will be able to complete their studies successfully after being transferred to other professors, and whether they will be bullied by other professors......" Nia took off her glasses and leaned on the console to look sideways at Caesarstar, "We all have such a big ship, what can we do with my students." I can continue to teach them. ”

Helena: "I also recommend bringing more people, if there are only six of us, it is easy to have psychological problems on such a large ship." ”

Gale: "Haha, I don't have to worry about it, I'm already crazy, even if I have psychological problems, it doesn't matter!" ”

Wang Chao: "Are you quite proud?" ”

Gale: "Main engine ignition!" ”

Lily: "You've just shouted that. ”

"Did you shout? Replace that with a gravity engine start! ”

When Nia heard the gale wind, she quickly sat up and put on her glasses, and checked the working status of the gravity engine through the thick large data wire inserted in her back.

"Everything is working fine with the improved gravity engine, and the engine is now 22 percent more efficient than the normal engine."

For a ship as large as the New Jackdaw, the gravity engine is especially important - without the gravity engine to counter the gravity of the planet and reduce the overall inertia, the propellant consumption of a spacecraft of the mass of the New Jackdaw will increase dramatically.

With the propellant that the Jackdaw is carrying now, it may not be able to open the high orbit of Caesar without the gravity engine.

And the new Jackdaw has to reach the high orbit of Caesar, or even the Lagrange point of the gravitational equilibrium, before it can start the gravity engine to tear through real space and jump into hyperspace.

This is also the difference between a large ship like the new Jackdaw and the previous 60-meter Jackdaw.

The new Jackdaw cannot break into the atmosphere, and the jump must first move to a high orbit, near the edge of the planet's gravity well.

The trumpeted Jackdaw can jump into hyperspace directly in orbit on the Apollodorus space station, and can also break through into the atmosphere.

Yes, despite the gale performing hard in front of the false rudder, the new Jackdaw could not jump yet.

It will take a few days for the new Jackdaw to move to high orbit.

Theoretically, that's true.

Nia: "The jump is ready. ”

Wang was shocked, he was an old astronaut, and he knew that a spacecraft of such a large tonnage as the new Jackdaw had to be transferred to the planet's high orbit first.

So he asked Nia, "Jump now?" Are we next to planets, won't we be torn apart by the gravitational pull of planets? ”

Nia: "Probably not, the ships of the United Cluster have been jumping around Apollodorus for the past few days, and I've accumulated a lot of observations. I think with my current level of adjustment, I should be able to make a safe jump deep in the planetary gravity well. ”

Wang Chao let out an "oh", he almost forgot that Nia's ability to observe gravitational waves can ignore all kinds of obstacles.

In other words, although she has been staying in her house, she has actually been observing the gravitational waves emitted by the spacecraft within tens of thousands of kilometers of the space station, as well as the changes in the gravitational waves when they jump.

Wang Chao: "I forgot that you are a little thorough." ”

"Huh?" Nia looked confused, "What Xiaotou?" ”

Lily: "I know, I know!" I'll answer this question! It's like this time to say, 'Wow, this box is so handsome!' ’”

Nia: "????? ”

Wang Chao: "You don't have to care. Now that we can jump, let's jump, the goal is that we have selected uninhabited galaxies from a large number of star charts! Let's go! ”

This is almost the end of this volume, and the return to New Eden is a new volume.

Chapter numbers are also counted from Chapter 1 onwards.
