Chapter 0485: Why Do You Suffer
Originally, the girl was still in the mecha cockpit, but at this moment, the mecha cockpit that had no bilge and no power had long since disappeared, only the thin figure of the girl with her eyes slightly closed and sitting cross-legged. A pair of pale golden wings of light flapped gently behind her back, keeping the girl silently suspended in the air.
Although the hair on her head is no longer there, although her face is full of scars after burns, although the flesh and blood of a pair of slender hands on her knees are blurred, and although the reddish-brown blood stains that have been burned on the armor of the internal force are still there, the girl sitting quietly cross-legged in the sun is as calm and calm as an old nun, and her expression is calm, as if it is not herself who is injured, as if the danger just now has never happened.
Thundered............
Suddenly, a roar of the engine came from far and near, and in a few breaths, a huge black shadow had covered the thin figure of the girl sitting cross-legged - a huge golden mecha more than fifty meters high, and the engine roared and hovered in front of the girl. In the big golden hand of the mecha, he carefully held a golden button the size of a button.
In the midst of a loud roar, the tail flame ejected from the mecha engine drove the blazing air, forming a small thermal vortex. The rolling heat wave blew across the girl's face, drumming the girl's flame-retardant protective clothing, and the girl was unaware, still sitting with her eyes slightly closed, suspended in the air.
The mecha with the roaring engine, the girl sitting cross-legged, moving and static, standing and sitting, hanging in the air, holding each other.
After ten minutes, the mecha was still roaring and levitating, the girl was still sitting cross-legged, the mecha and the girl were still holding each other, and neither side moved.
"Hey............"
The girl sitting cross-legged frowned slightly. Suddenly he let out a long sigh.
Standing up, the golden wings of light flapped slightly, and the slender figure flashed. The girl was already standing on the mecha's outstretched right hand. Leaning over to pick up the golden button, and with a slight twist, the cockpit door on the chest of the mecha automatically opened, and the girl dodged in, and the mecha hatch closed.
The cockpit of this mech is extraordinarily large, bright, and comfortable, far more like the cockpit of a spaceship, far more like a normal mecha. The girl's eyebrows frowned slightly. His gaze swept over the cockpit, looked around, and finally stopped on the bridge.
On the helm platform near the porthole. A thumb-sized milky white jade bottle pressed against a piece of paper, lying there quietly. Even the emergency stop of the mecha just now did not affect the stability of a jade bottle in the slightest, as if the jade bottle had taken root on the bridge.
Folded light wings. Walk to the bridge. Picking up the jade bottle, the girl's gaze was fixed on the thin note. Although the medium of paper has been obsolete for thousands of years, there are still some people in some upper-class societies who like to be retro.
On the note, the black imitation Song font is neatly and neatly like a print, and the pen is vigorous and neat, like a knife and an axe. Such a font, this person who left the word. At best, he should be a rigorous and steady person, and at worst. Must be an old-fashioned, dead-dogmatic guy.
Take it, you know, ten days, it's too late......
There is no signature, no payment, although neat, but it can't hide some scribbled fonts, it seems that the preface does not match the afterword, all of which show the unpeace in the heart of the person who left the word.
"Why are you bothered!" the girl let out a long sigh, but she understood this inexplicable message that had no beginning or end, which made people scratch their heads and inexplicable.
The mecha engine roared into the air, passing through the atmosphere thousands of miles thick on Chiyan Star, and came to the outer space of Chiyan Star. A very old Xu Xiake-class XXK-38 expedition spacecraft is flying around Chiyan Star in the orbit of Chiyan Star.
Xu Xia's guest-class exploration spacecraft is a civilian-level civilian interstellar exploration spacecraft tailored by the Galactic Federation for those interstellar explorers who are not well funded.
Although it is a civilian-level exploration spaceship, although it is a spaceship specially built for explorers who are not well funded, this does not mean that Xu Xia's guest-level exploration spacecraft is not advanced!
On the contrary, each generation of this Xu Xiake-class exploration spacecraft uses the most advanced equipment allowed to be used at the civilian level at that time. Whether it's the engine, or the protective deck, or the strength of the protective cover, etc...... All of them are purchased with the most advanced equipment of that generation. Therefore, each generation of Xu Xiake-class exploration spacecraft was the most advanced exploration spacecraft at that time.
Since it is the most advanced, how can it be an expedition spaceship for explorers who do not have enough money? This involves the design and manufacturing concept of Xu Xiake's expedition spaceship.
This Xu Xiake-level interstellar exploration spacecraft is well-known for its advanced performance, but it is also a well-known "big horse-drawn cart", and is also nicknamed "Miss's Body and Maid's Life" by the exploration community.
The most advanced equipment and the worst living facilities are where the cost savings of Xu Xia's passenger expedition spacecraft lie.
Take the XXK-38 owned by the girl as an example, the diameter of the hull of the spacecraft is generally around 1,500 meters for a spaceship that normally uses equipment of this level, but the diameter of the spaceship for the girl is compressed to 500 meters. If nothing else, just to reduce the cost, without reducing performance, to keep the price down, so that interstellar explorers who are not too rich in money can afford it.
Since the hull of the ship is compressed to five hundred meters, there will naturally be no luxurious and wide rest cabins, no leisurely and clear swimming pools, and no noisy and boiling bars...... In short, all other comfortable functional cabins except for the necessary living functional cabins are removed in order to reduce costs.
Even the necessary life function cabins can be made small and compressed, and the layout of the spacecraft's cabins can be compacted and compact, and the functions can be combined and combined, which can be said to be compressed to the extreme.
Of the more than 500 meters of the entire XXK-38 expedition spacecraft, more than three-quarters of the volume is occupied by various equipment to ensure the operation of the spacecraft, and less than a quarter of the space is used as the crew's living function cabin and material reserves.
After such a toss, the price of this XXK-38 interstellar exploration spacecraft is only one-third of the normal price, which is absolutely super super good and cheap.
Because of this, the Xu Xiake-class star-class exploration spacecraft is the most popular civilian exploration spaceship among interstellar explorers in the Federation, and it is also the civilian interstellar exploration spacecraft with the largest number of civilian holdings in the Galactic Federation.
The ultra-luxurious hardware configuration is the body of the lady of Xu Xia's guest-class spaceship, and the simplified and compressed living facilities to the extreme are the maid's life of Xu Xia's guest-class exploration spaceship.
Super powerful performance and super simple and no comfortable living facilities, the contrast between the two is strong, so it is nicknamed "the life of the young lady" by interstellar explorers. This is a portrayal of the previous generations of Xu Xiake-level interstellar exploration spacecraft.
As for why it is called Xu Xiake, and not Kante-level or Rhodes-level, the reason is very simple, because the Galactic Federation is now the final say of the Huaxia people, and the Huaxia people cover the sky with one hand, and the Huaxia language is also the only lingua franca of the Federation, so all products that are a little famous are named after the Huaxia language. And Xu Xiake is a famous civilian explorer in ancient Chinese history, so this popular and economical expedition spaceship was named after it. The other races in the federation have long been accustomed to this tone of the Chinese, and no one dares to put a fart, let alone any objections.
The XXK-38 expedition spaceship owned by the girl is not the latest model of Xu Xia's guest class. The latest model of the Galactic Federation's contemporary Xu Xiake-class exploration spacecraft is still a type of XXK-40 spacecraft developed before Liang Yuan's crossing. Although almost two hundred years have passed now, the Federation still does not have a new generation of XXK-41 expedition spacecraft on the market.
It is estimated that it has already been designed and the preparations for mass production have been completed, but because the performance of the XXK-40 spacecraft can still fully meet the needs, and this is originally a mass spacecraft, which is updated too frequently, which is invisibly equivalent to increasing the economic burden of interstellar explorers, so the Federation is not in a hurry to put the new model of spacecraft on the market.
Large-scale scientific and technological products of this level like spaceships, each update involves too wide a range, and it is not something that can be updated once every three or five years. Generally, it will take hundreds of years to update the new generation at the earliest. And even if the previous generation has been updated, it does not mean that the performance is not advanced, and it does not mean that it is not useful. In fact, the Galactic Federation still has a large number of XXK-39 expedition ships of this generation from three hundred years ago in use, and they are all using them well.
Like this kind of spacecraft that continues from generation to generation, the common rate of accessories between similar two generations is very high, which is the advantage of large ownership, easy maintenance and low cost.
However, like the girl, the XXK-38 spacecraft of 500 years ago are still in use, but there are very few. After all, it's a product of 500 years ago,
Although it is a mass-electric civilian-level exploration spaceship, this is a real spaceship after all, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford. There is no one who can afford to play an interstellar spaceship who is not a planet-level tycoon.
