Chapter 268 The Empire Has No Engineering Ships
For example, the ceramic steel and plastic steel of the empire, the metal minerals needed can be seen everywhere in the star system.
Although the resources of the universe are limited, they are close to infinite due to their large volume.
Relying solely on the mineral resources in the S-01888 star, there is no problem in feeding billions of people.
Of course, the cost of feeding billions of people is prohibitively high due to lack of water and difficulty in obtaining it.
The S-01888 star system is suitable for mining, not for colonization.
Now the Ark has been built and 10,000+ people live in it.
The new population is about [-] to [-] each year.
Jiang Yu thought about putting the ark in the fault space, so that the people of the empire could live hard.
But think about it or forget it, as the regent, he should not treat his people as reproductive tools.
Moreover, the fault space is in the subspace after all.
Although protected by spiritual energy barriers, human spirits will be more or less affected.
Only slaves whose brains have been removed can work in it for a long time without being affected.
The Sanctuary is under construction, even if there is a time gap, the construction period will not be less than five years.
How to make the Sikkim module seamlessly welded is a technical task, and the process is very cumbersome.
At present, except for the Temple project, all other projects in the empire have been completed.
It's time to grow outward...
but……
Looking at it, Jiang Yu suddenly realized a problem.
That is, the empire has no engineering ships.
The STC construction module on Yuanxing has been dismantled, and it is not suitable for an industrial base.
If you want to develop outward and build various mining bases and space stations, you must have engineering ships.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu said: "001, tell Donald to design an engineering ship with the following indicators: it must be large, its length should not be less than 2 kilometers, it must have complete industrial capabilities, and its production efficiency should not be lower than that of STC. 20% of the construction module must have the ability to enter and exit the atmosphere to take off and land on the planet, and the ability to navigate in subspace, and can accommodate at least 50 "Iron Slave" mining boats, 1000 mining machines, and 1000 engineering machines."
With the "Firestorm-class" frigate, you will unlock the E-class fusion reactor, E-class plasma thruster, E-class subspace engine, E-class Geller force field, E-class void shield, and corresponding weapons and energy transmission pipes science and technology.
With these technologies, the Mechanicus can design civilian ships relatively freely.
"Also, design another transport ship with the following indicators: the length should not be less than two kilometers, it must have the ability to navigate in subspace, it must have the ability to take off and land on planets, the cargo compartment must be modular, and any type of ship can be shipped according to demand. The cargo, including troops, and armored vehicles must have certain self-defense capabilities, and the firepower does not need to be too strong, but naval weapons must not be absent.”
Among all the warships of the empire, except for some special ships, only the ships of the escort class have the ability to take off and land on the surface of the planet.
Anti-gravity devices are also standard equipment for escort ships, but they are just too frustrating.
After all, the larger the battleship, the greater its mass, and the greater the influence of the planet's gravity.
Imperial warships will not attempt atmospheric entry unless absolutely necessary.
001: "The order has been communicated, and the great sage Donald Technology replied that the ship data will be released in two months."
Ships are not compared to arks, which are simpler in design.
The STC data terminal only designed the hull structure of the ark, and the internal details were all designed by technology priests.
And this process will not be less than half a year.
When construction of the Ark began, its blueprints were not yet complete.
It's about building and designing.
"By the way, let me ask Donald again, do you have the coordinate data of the "UNSC" base camp?"
This time the "UNSC" fleet suffered heavy losses. Only one-third of the warships were successfully evacuated, and the other warships became metal wreckage in the universe.
After the war, the Mechanicus salvaged a relatively complete firm-class frigate.
If you can crack the battleship database, you can get the location of the "UNSC" base camp.
001: "The ship's terminal data has been deleted, and the chip has been physically damaged. The great sage of Donald Technology replied that he is trying to repair it, but there is no guarantee that it will be successful. It will take some time."
Obviously, it may be impossible to get the coordinates of the "UNSC" base camp from those metal wreckages.
He was not disappointed, the answer was within Jiang Yu's expectations.
If it was him, knowing that the other party didn't know where his base camp was,
A set of self-destruct procedures will also be designed. Once the ship is destroyed, all data will be cleared, and the chip will need to be physically destroyed.
In this way, even if the war fails, the enemy cannot easily find the location of their base camp.
The universe is too big, even if the other party is within thirty light years, it is not easy to find it.
If you can't find it, you can't find it...
Jiang Yu didn't pay too much attention to the "UNSC" attack this time.
It's like a child who punched an adult sneakily. Although he was hit, his hand was swollen, and then he ran away secretly.
Adults will remember him and deal with him the next time they meet him.
There is no need to avenge one punch and search all over the street.
"call……"
Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yu had a thoughtful look on his face.
The next thing to do is much simpler, to explore outwards to find more valuable star systems.
After the engineering ship is launched, navigation beacons and mining bases can be built in the explored star system.
Although the star ring is rich in mineral deposits, it will be exhausted one day.
In just four years, some commonly used minerals have been depleted.
The "Iron Slave" mining ship had to go further to the asteroid belt to mine.
Once the transport ship and engineering ship are launched, the planetary mining plan will be put on the agenda.
Ground engineering equipment, such as transport vehicles, and large mining equipment are in preparation.
These are not advanced gadgets, and the Mechanic Cult can toss them out casually.
"Wang, it's getting late, go to bed earlier..."
According to the current time of the empire, it is already the dead of night.
Outside, the star was already on the other side of Star One, making the back of the planet dark.
As soon as Sandra said this, Erin, who was kneeling on both sides of the recliner, stood up quickly.
Looking at the starry sky outside, Jiang Yu waved and said, "Go back first, I will stay alone for a while."
Hearing this, Sandra got up and stood up.
She didn't say much, just saluted "Wang" with her long skirt in both hands.
Then he twisted his waist and walked towards the direction of the golden gate, leaving only a wonderful back view for Jiang Yu.
He looked at Mrs. Sandra's leaving back, and then looked at Wang.
The two sisters glanced at each other, and bowed to the "Wang" with their long skirts in hand.
Then walked away...
After the three girls left, Jiang Yu was the only one left in the huge hall.
Standing up, Jiang Yu came to the glass wall and quietly looked at the starry sky outside.
And his thoughts have already shuttled through the subspace...
……
S-01894 star system.
The starry sky is vast, dark yet full of stars.
In a dark universe, a giant ship is sailing.
