In the future, space orbital factories will no longer need rib docks that are several kilometers long, but will only need to produce various standardized cabins like assembly lines.

In other words, the comprehensive embodiment of the industrial level of the battleship has entered the era of assembly!

The warships of the human beings can completely match the cabins in the ship according to the different conditions of the mission, and can even increase or decrease the number of cabins according to the length of the mission, so as to reach the target of the same type of warship, which can reach more than ten or twenty kilometers and several kilometers smaller.

Another benefit of modular warships is that repairs and replenishes them are very simple, as long as you remove the damaged parts and replace them with intact standardized modules, you can repair the battleship immediately!

With the current level of technology in the republic, there are no technical problems in designing modular warships, and with the help of supercomputers, the design department quickly came up with design drawings and delivered them to the military industry for trial production.

In just a few days, the first batch of standardized modules produced by orbital factories scattered across galaxies were all delivered to Blu-ray Star.

The first standardized modules include a core area, a power compartment, a storage compartment, a weapons compartment, an airborne preparation compartment, a reconnaissance equipment compartment, and even a transmission compartment.

Among them, the highest length is the gravity gun in the weapons compartment, which is more than ten kilometers long is not only a weapon, its thick outer wall, but also an important part of the skeleton support structure of the battleship.

All standardized modules are of the same standard, with side lengths of 10 meters or multiples of 10 meters, and access corridors are opened at defined locations, with fixed structures installed at the corners. On the side, there is an energy transmission interface like a giant socket.

The core area of the existing warship is oval, but the new core area has also been changed to a square area, except that the volume is slightly larger than the old core area, the new core area itself is a small spaceship, and if the situation is not good, all the cabins outside the core area can be immediately thrown away.

All in all, the design of the new warship is very user-friendly, and the security of the warship itself is not neglected because of the cloning technology.

Under the personal auspices of Xu Shijie, the assembly of the first real yàn ship assembled from standard modules began.

The core area is in place, and then the small tugboat installs the inner layer of the rigid skeleton outside the core area. Then expand the skeleton as needed. And the various compartments were spliced into place, and it only took ten minutes for the spliced battleship to appear in the outer space of the blue star.

Because the first modular warship was tested only in theoretical terms, only the compartments were unarmored. After assembling, it already has all the functions that a battleship needs. But in the absence of armor protection. It is not possible to fly at high speeds, but only a few kilometers per second for a short time, which proves that the modular solution is feasible.

The ship survived for less than an hour. It was dismantled by a tugboat, and then the design department had to carry out a comprehensive optimization design of the cabin structure and module specifications, which could not be completed in a short period of time, at least, it was not a reasonable solution for the module to use ten meters and multiples of ten meters as the base length.

The improvement of the battleship is in full swing, and the clones of the sacrificed personnel are also racing against time.

However, this time the cloning was unexpected, and the stem cells of more than a dozen warriors had obvious mutations in the embryonic stage after they were formed.

Embryo mutation is not a strange thing, even if it is a normal life and death cell, it is possible to mutate, but the technology of cloning humans has long been mature, and there has not been a single case of mutation in several large-scale cloning, but this time there have been more than a dozen cases at once, how can it not attract the attention of the staff?

The technical backbone of the cloning center is all from the No. 1 real yàn room, which was originally full of research spirit, and after discovering this phenomenon, he immediately devoted himself to the study of forgetting to sleep and eat.

However, no matter what angle was studied, no obvious factors were found to affect cloning, and the research reached a dead end.

Sacrificed warriors must be cloned, but clone centers are reluctant to risk a second cloning until the cause of the mutation is found.

After all, the cloning center is not a specialized research institution, and it has not been able to find the answer to the question, so the cloning center has to hand over all the mutated embryos to the No. 1 real yàn room, hoping to find out the reason with the top research power of the No. 1 real yàn room.

Of course, the technical backbone of the cloning center is not willing to give up, and is still constantly pondering the cause of the problem.

A staff member accidentally consulted the files of these cloned embryos and was surprised to find that all the embryos in question were triple cloned embryos, that is, the stem cells used in cloning were from secondary clones!

He immediately realized that the mutation of the embryo was likely related to multiple cloning, and immediately shared the discovery with all his companions. When the news reached Room 1, the relevant personnel immediately carried out a series of realizations, easily proving that multiple cloning would greatly increase the chance of mutation of cloned embryos.

There are more than a dozen mutations in dozens of triple-cloned embryos, which is unacceptably high, but why haven't the other three clones mutated? Are there any external factors that are still unknown to ZÀI?

The researchers in Room 1 set out to conduct an in-depth study, not only studying the mutated embryonic cells, but also transferring all the unmutated triple cloning embryos to Room 1 for study.

Anyway, the military still has a lot of stem cells from the sacrificial soldiers' bodies, and it is not a hassle to re-clon dozens of embryos.

Room 1 gathered many top experts in biological sciences, and in less than a day, it was discovered that the genes of the dozen or so mutated embryos were defective.

The researchers immediately linked the mutation to the defect and extracted the cells of the mutated embryo itself for study, and found that the cells of the embryo itself contained mild or severe genetic defects or genetic diseases.

From the perspective of biological evolution, individuals with gene defects belong to the bad individuals in the whole population, such individuals are usually weak and sickly or have a short lifespan, and are in a weak position in the whole population.

However, after mankind entered the era of civilization, especially after the rise of humanist thought, the whole society became more and more inclined to pay attention to the disadvantaged groups, so that many individuals who could have been eliminated naturally survived in this social atmosphere, and even married wives and had children.

As a result, defective genes are passed down from generation to generation.

Probably the most famous example is the hemophilia that affected the royal families of four European countries in the 19th century due to the marriage of close relatives. (To be continued......)
