Chapter 19: Preparation (Part II)

In the following time, the Broken Blades hurriedly disposed of the goods in their hands and plunged headlong into the home world of the X-Men.

Today's X-Men world, under the influence of Shen Yi's continuous introduction of high technology, has gradually developed into a world with technology far beyond the real earth, and has a tendency to move towards space.

This is also the impact that Shen Yi deliberately caused - no company can develop by leaps and bounds on the basis of breaking away from the background of the times, appropriately release some technologies, and improve the scientific and technological strength of the whole world, so as to benefit themselves. In this process, Newman needs to do only to maintain its own technological leadership, not absolute monopoly.

With no return on the board, only a steady stream of money and the all-out efforts of Serena, Sarah and David Paul, Newman & Associates has grown at a rapid pace to become a world-renowned super-tech company.

Hundreds of large, medium and small companies are relying on the technology provided by Newman to survive, people's lives have also changed dramatically, science fiction products such as flying cars have begun to appear on the streets, and the future technology world has taken shape.

The story of turning a company into a world-changing behemoth in just over a decade is enough to write a multi-million-word modern urban web novel about a man who leads a team.

And for the creators of legends, the harvest season has finally arrived.

Newman Associates, Nevada Space Base.

The light space cruiser "Pioneer" is preparing for liftoff.

Shen Yi stood by the lookout window of the cruiser and looked down, from here he could see tens of thousands of people waiting for the ignition of the Pioneer, including thousands of media reporters from all over the world - the launch of the Pioneer is not a secret, and it cannot be a secret.

Fortunately, the United States is a country that owns the world with capital, and the private space industry has existed in the real world as early as the real world, but because of its lack of capital and technological strength, it has not yet been able to compete with state institutions.

But here, the private sector is ahead of the state industry and is far behind other rivals.

Newman had already launched a manned spacecraft a decade earlier, and at that time it didn't pay much attention to it because state agencies could do it.

But in the following days, Newman launched more and more spacecraft, larger and larger, longer endurance, longer survival time, more and more comfortable spacecraft environment, and the spacecraft itself became more and more urban, functional and sci-fi......

Americans have finally realized that their fantasy space age is actually getting closer and closer to them, but that it is not the state that started this era, but a private company.

Congress was also frightened, the world was shaken, and some heads of state even joined forces to conspire to pass a certain bill or international agreement to restrain Newman's crazy expansion, the most famous is the "Melbourne Peaceful Uses of Space Act", under the guise of justice such as the peaceful use of space and the fact that space resources belong to all mankind, forcing Newman to hand over all aerospace technology materials.

For this reason, Shen Yi had to arrange another drama that had been staged in the world of Transformers, and with a cordial and friendly attitude, he appeared uninvited at the home of every heavyweight of the anti-Newman company and gave him a friendly and intimate private visit.

There were so many of these big names who opposed it that they often had to run hundreds of houses in one night, and some of them had to run several more times, until the other party confirmed that even if a division was transferred to guard the door of their own house, they could not stop these guys who came and went without a trace, and all the voices of trying to pick peaches from Newman Company automatically disappeared.

Of course, there will be bloodshed.

After that, Newman & Associates bought a piece of land in the Nevada desert and officially established this space base of their own, which also made their space industry officially public.

And today, it is the moment when Newman announced the first real spacecraft that can carry people into space and explore galaxies.

Of course, they didn't say it was a battleship, but put all the batteries away and camouflaged it to make it look more like an exploration ship.

Therefore, when people in the outside world were still excited and looking forward to the launch of the first sci-fi spaceship, they didn't know that Shen Yi in the spaceship was looking at the firepower configuration of the spaceship.

"HV6 Dreadnought-class light cruiser, with a total length of 860 meters, a width of 122 meters, and two ion engines. Standby power: four nuclear-powered engines. The conventional speed is 3,000 km/s, and the maximum speed is 2 hundredths of the speed of light. ”

"The armor is worth 58,000 points, and the energy shield is worth 10,000 points. ”

"The loading crew and logistics personnel totaled 1,500 people, including 128 engineers. There are 300 maintenance robots, 500 T850 Terminators, 300 T950 Terminators, 1 command TX Terminator, and 10 combat TX Terminators. It can carry 60 space fighters, and now carries 40 fighters, including 15 SS116 light fighters (remaining in the original 20), 15 Wildcat light fighters, 5 Lightning heavy fighters, and 5 Tianhuo medium ground bombers. Aviation combat corps five hundred people (airborne battalion). One hundred assisted driving Terminators. ”

"Battleship fire system:"

"Eight 12-pack missile launchers. ”

"XX109 Phalanx 16 seats. ”

"Six shipborne long-range energy laser cannons. ”

"Six shipborne ion acceleration guns. ”

"The ship has 164 low-ground guns of various types and 300 Rover robots. ”

Next is all kinds of electronic equipment, as well as the ship's cabin layout, driving system, combat system, escape system and so on.

Unlike starships in the general sense, the Pioneer has a large number of ground guns, which makes it capable of melee attacks. This is almost incomprehensible behavior on an interstellar battlefield dominated by ultra-long-range strikes. But in the eyes of adventurers, this is perfectly normal.

Whether it is an adventurer enemy or a Zerg enemy, they are all good at melee hand-to-hand combat, even a gunner like Shen Yi can only be regarded as a melee soldier on the interstellar battlefield with magnificent waves and an attack distance of tens of thousands of miles.

Because of this, you don't have to expect the enemy to fight you in a long-range duel, even in a starry battlefield, where superhumans are the basic combat unit, hand-to-hand combat is still the mainstream. Of course, hand-to-hand combat here is much larger in terms of range than traditional long-range.

It's a brand new battle mode for adventurers. They have never experienced it before and have not trained it, so there is an urgent need to catch up on this aspect.

The spacecraft has already begun to ignite and take off, the crowd below is cheering, and a reporter is impassionedly exclaiming to the camera: "Now what we see is that the Pioneer is taking off, and it is flying! Look at that, this is a historic moment, from today, the footsteps of mankind have officially stepped into the space field, deep into the infinite and vast galactic world!"

Someone next to him whispered a reminder: "Human beings should officially set foot in space from the beginning of the moon landing." ”

"No!" the reporter replied loudly: "The Pioneer will set off from Earth and fly to the distant Andromeda Galaxy, where it will look for a planet suitable for human growth and create an era of interstellar colonization for mankind! Compared to now, the moon landing is just a wandering at the doorstep!"

In order to show the weight of his reporting, the reporter did not hesitate to devalue the human moon landing as worthless.

Well, anyway, at least in terms of distance, there is still some truth.

Unbeknownst to people, of course, the Pioneers never intended to enter the Andromeda system. That was just a perfunctory statement by the local people, the purpose was to announce that after the spaceship was launched, it would never come back, so that it would be convenient for Shen Yi to take the spaceship away.

After all, the Andromeda Galaxy is so far away, that it is a full 2 million light-years away from Earth, far from being easily reached by a warship with a maximum speed of only 2 percent of the speed of light.

If the universe is a sea, then the current warship is at best a small sampan, and this is the limit of the real technology of the Quarez people - it is said that the fastest spaceship they have created has only reached the speed of light at ten percent. Every interstellar trip is a super long trip.

Shen Yi didn't know how far the Quarez people had wandered to find the "origin of the universe", but it was conceivable that these guys must have lived for a very long time.

For this reason, Zhou Yiyu, who was sitting in the cockpit controlling the spacecraft, sighed: "Ten percent of the speed of light is already the speed limit that Quarez people can reach, but it is still far from enough to cross the galaxy." In this respect, the level of technology in Star Wars is much higher than that of the entire bloody city. ”

Gentle and coldly said: "It's a pity that it's all false fantasy technology, it doesn't really exist, and it can't be made in the home world...... It doesn't even have technical information to grasp. ”

King Kong smiled: "If it is harvested as a reward, it can still be taken out, just like the plot characters are also space creations, relying on adventurers to exist." ”

"The problem is that it's too expensive...... No one in Bloody City has ever been able to bring out a fantasy tech-grade ship. Sighed softly.

As they spend more time in the city, they become more aware of the city's system. Even the space fleet created by Shen Yi at a cost of tens of millions is just the upper limit of the Quaresses' technology, and it is still too far behind those spaceships in science fiction movies.

This can't be blamed on the low technological ability of the Quarez people, only because the universe is too big, and the only thing that can surpass the size of the universe is the rich and infinitely vast imagination of human beings.

"It doesn't have to be that you can't bring it out. Sitting in front of the captain's platform, Shen Yi drank twice as much coffee slowly.

At this time, the spacecraft had entered the atmosphere and was heading towards the distant space, and in front of the observation window, bright stars gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"What's the solution?" everyone asked in unison.

"The system is balanced. Shen Yi replied.

System balancing is a common balancing method in cities.

For example, Zhao Ling'er is an example, when she came out of the fairy sword world, her upgrade talent was canceled.

That's where system balancing comes in.

However, one thing must be clear, that is, the purpose of the existence of system balance is not to increase the difficulty and make it difficult for risk-takers, but to be fair.

Like Megatron and Zhao Ling'er, they were all brought out by Shen Yi and their painstaking efforts, and they met the standards of high risk, high pay, and high return, so their overall strength was not affected.

However, the wilderness life that is like the gentle summoning lacks mission support, and the effort and reward are not equal to some extent, and if the creature that is enchanted is too strong, it will often weaken its strength to a certain extent. The most obvious example is the one-eyed troll, who has lost about thirty percent of his strength after being summoned gently. On the contrary, the fierce beasts with more ordinary strength she summoned before did not show any major changes.

But the balance of the system is not only weakened.

When conditions allow, adventurers are also given a certain amount of strengthening.

An example of this is the Dustless Sword.

When the Dustless Sword is in the hands of the adventurer, it is more powerful than in the hands of the Lunatic Master.

Of course, there are also some weapons that will go down after leaving their original owners.

The system balance that Shen Yi is talking about at this moment obviously refers to the gap between the real starship and the starship in the future sci-fi world.

Since the ships in the home world are built with real technology, they are too far from fantasy technology. If it is placed in the background world of Star Wars, it is estimated that it will be blown to the point that there is no scum left. Therefore, when adventurers bring such items into the corresponding quest world, they will often get a certain amount of bonus.

However, this usually only happens under certain circumstances, and once you leave the quest world, the bonus will be canceled.

When Shen Yi said this at this moment, he obviously meant something.

"Looks like you've got an idea. King Kong laughed.

He was curiously fiddling with the various operating instruments in front of him.

Even a space battleship under real technology is still a great behemoth to him. Looking at the infinitely deep starry sky outside the porthole, as well as the glittering operating buttons in front of him, wearing the most professional spacesuit, King Kong felt as if he was in a science fiction world full of infinite futures.

"It's nothing, it's just a dream upgrade with real technology as the carrier. It may be a little difficult, but it's much better than taking a Dream Tech-class battleship directly. Shen Yi replied leisurely.

"Even if it were, it was unprecedented. Zhou Yiyu sighed: "If we can really upgrade the battleship to that level, then one day in the future, maybe we can really drive it back to Earth...... Who knows how far away the dream space is from Earth? Maybe it's millions of light-years away. ”

Zhou Yiyu's words were originally unintentional, but at that time, a flash of inspiration flashed in Shen Yi's mind, and he suddenly understood the reason why the Supreme Council did not return to Earth.

Maybe...... Here's the answer!

If this is the case, will the idea of the Supreme Council accepting the Great Universe Project have a deeper meaning?

Thinking of this, Shen Yi's heart trembled suddenly.
