Dragon Galaxy - Imperial Military Research Institute
A month later, Zhao Chen once again made a move.
When Zhao Chen stepped inside, the three chief engineers were already waiting for him.
Chief Engineer Nana pushed up her glasses, which she didn't need for nearsightedness.
Elise the Spider Queen held a tool that resembled a book in her hands, although most of its functions could now be operated via a handheld terminal and holographic projection.
However, Elise the Spider Queen still liked this control panel, and basically kept it with her 24/7, even placing it by her bedside when she rested.
Only Chief Engineer Anne seemed out of place with the two of them. She yawned sleepily, slumped there lazily as if she might collapse at any moment, and occasionally pursed her lips, looking down at her toes as if there was something there.
When Nicole, the angel assistant standing nearby, saw Zhao Chen appear, she immediately nudged Chief Engineer Annie from behind.
Chief Engineer Anne finally put away her laziness and opened her eyes a little wider.
"Your Majesty," the three chief engineers and other relevant personnel present said in unison.
"Let's talk as we walk." Zhao Chen didn't stop walking, and everyone immediately followed beside him.
"The experimental ship, numbered XLCJ001, has been completed and will conduct its first sea trial today," Chief Engineer Nana announced first.
"How long will the sea trial take?" Zhao Chen asked.
"It takes a week to complete the core content, and a month to go through the entire process."
"Because almost all the data for this starship is ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) from our first test, there's no reference material available," Chief Engineer Nana replied.
"If the order to start production is given, how is the production line ready?"
"How much will the production be?" Zhao Chen looked at Elise, the Spider Queen, beside him.
Elise, the Spider Queen, was primarily responsible for the production process.
Elise, the Spider Queen, held the data panel in her hands and said, "The relevant production line structure and templates have already been prepared on our side for a long time."
With just a word, we can set up the first batch of five production lines within three days.
It uses the T6 Steel Star City system.
As for output, if we don't consider resources and raw materials...
Five production lines; the first batch of five interstellar warships could roll off the line within two months at the earliest.
Zhao Chen paused, looked at Elise the Spider Queen, and said in surprise, "Only two months? So fast?"
"Won't there be any problems?"
Zhao Chen's expression turned serious.
Spider Queen Elise immediately replied, "Your Majesty, please rest assured regarding the quality of the starships."
Our department can guarantee that there will be absolutely no problems.
As for why it was so fast, it's related to the technology we used this time, which greatly reduced the time required for production.
We can outsource many production components, but we only need to complete about 50% of the core modules ourselves.
In this way, production efficiency can be greatly increased.
Two months is enough.
Zhao Chen nodded in satisfaction and continued walking forward.
A huge gate appeared ahead, and beyond the gate lay an even larger space.
Among them is a super-huge interstellar warship, supported by tens of thousands of mechanical arms, which is truly spectacular.
Zhao Chen scanned the interstellar warship from left to right.
The ship's hull is still unpainted and retains its original brown color.
The ship's shape is similar to that of a star battleship and a star destroyer, which is the most conventional type of ship shape.
"This is the XLCJ001 experimental ship," Chief Engineer Nana said, her eyes shining.
"Detailed data," Zhao Chen said.
Neither Chief Engineer Nana nor Spider Queen Elise uttered a sound.
It wasn't until Nicole, the angel assistant, nudged the bewildered Chief Engineer Annie that Annie exclaimed "Ah!" and realized everyone's eyes were on her, finally snapping out of it.
He immediately raised his wrist and pressed a few buttons on the handheld terminal.
A data window then appeared in front of Zhao Chen.
'Restaurant No. 077 in Steel Star City, the beef fried rice made by Chef No. 7 is the best! Ten stars!'
Restaurant No. 003 in Steel Star City offers a 20% discount every Wednesday and also features special dishes! Eight stars!
'Restaurant No. 001 in Steel Star City No. 3, their signature dish "Brilliant Galaxy" is delicious, but the chef adds cilantro! Cilantro! Cilantro! Definitely do not add cilantro! Nine stars (minus one star if you don't like cilantro)'
...
Seeing these lines of text, along with accompanying pictures and detailed reviews...
A few dark lines appeared on Chief Engineer Nana's face.
Chief Engineer Anne blushed, immediately closed the window, and opened another document window: "I...I took the wrong one...this is the right one..."
At this moment, the real data about this interstellar warship was presented to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen tapped his finger lightly on it, looking at some important data.
"This interstellar warship is based on your previous design."
It incorporates Zerg technology and mechanical technology, as well as some core technologies of our JF-17 interstellar warships.
While it may not reach the true T7 level, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a near-T7 level interstellar warship.
However, our calculated combat capabilities are still somewhat inferior to those of our flagship JF-17 fighter jets.
However, it is completely superior to other JF-17 series interstellar warships.
And most importantly, once the test is successful, this is a near-T7 interstellar warship that can be mass-produced! Chief Engineer Nana said with shining eyes.
Near-T7 interstellar warship!
That's right, this is a research project that Zhao Chen had planned beforehand.
Since it is impossible to develop a real T7 interstellar warship in a short period of time.
To meet the current development needs of the Xiaolong Empire, a mass-produced near-T7 level interstellar warship is required.
Although he couldn't build a T7 starship, Zhao Chen was still somewhat confident in building a near-T7 level starship.
Combined with some technological data preserved in the technology database of the Xiaolong Empire, including Zerg technology and mechanical technology, and the core technology on the Xiaolong starships.
We need to make some upgrades and adjustments.
This led to the XLCJ001 experimental ship that stands before us.
"The key feature of this interstellar warship is that it not only utilizes Star Shield technology but also reinforces the Zerg bio-armor technology."
Concerned about insufficient core energy resources, we adopted a dual-core energy system.
One is our conventional starship core energy, which is mainly based on the JF-17 core energy, and upgraded with some of the excellent features of the mechanical race's core energy.
The other is the bio-core energy of the Zerg mothership.
Inside, there are three core energy sources for the T6 Zerg mothership, which are essentially its hearts.
This part was set up with the help of the Zerg engineers.
"Through our cooperation, these two core energy systems are fully compatible," Chief Engineer Nana explained.
At this moment, Zhao Chen turned his head and saw some unusual figures on the workbench next to him.
Those were engineers wearing robes, whose facial features could only be vaguely seen. They were all from the Zerglings of the Falcon Star Clan, selected by the Zerg Queen.
Although currently, apart from the Zerg Queen, the other Zerg members of the Xyzan StarCraft are still unable to communicate verbally.
However, thanks to the research and development efforts of Insect Princess and Zhao Chen, a communication device was created that allows the two parties to communicate.
These Zerg engineers are using this tool to communicate with their colleagues from other races.
In front of both of them, there will be something like a chat box.
If other interstellar races were to witness this scene, they would likely be speechless with astonishment.
The Zerg, considered a natural disaster, actually coexist peacefully with other Zerg!
It's unbelievable!
Chief Engineer Nana continued, "At the same time, this interstellar warship adopts a dual design of interstellar battleship and interstellar destroyer, and combines some features of other interstellar warships."
It can be considered a comprehensive interstellar warship.
It used biological weapons, energy weapons, heavy artillery, bow guns, main guns, interstellar missiles, Zerg combat units, interstellar drones, and more.
In short, this one interstellar warship is equivalent to a fully equipped interstellar fleet.
Zhao Chen listened to these accounts and nodded in satisfaction.
These were all his previous ideas, and he had also developed some data outlines, but it was the engineers and scientists who truly refined these details.
It has to be said, they are really capable.
"In addition, because we adopted the characteristics of mechanical starships, we have upgraded automation to the highest level."
This interstellar warship has three advanced AIs, one hundred and nine intermediate AIs, and thousands of low-level AIs.
It reduced combat positions by 80% and increased combat efficiency by at least 30%.
Normally, a starship of this level would require tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of combat personnel.
However, the standard combat personnel for this interstellar warship only require 10,000.
This figure of 10,000 people still covers the three-shift system during combat hours.
