Chapter 1425 Communication Reconstruction Plan

"Miss Melita, do you want to rent some Gorgon signal base stations?"

Rebecca looked at the dragon ambassador in front of her with bright eyes, with a bright smile like her signature on her face, while Melita subconsciously glanced at Gao Wen after hearing this. Gao Wen felt awkward: "What are you looking at me for?"

"You really deserve to be related by blood," Miss Blue Dragon said quietly, "Her tone is more and more like you, like when you fooled the 'business partner' to let blood."

"What's the trick?" Before Gao Wen could speak, Rebecca next to him murmured, "I'm serious, this is a very feasible plan—abandon the ground that is too harsh, and give up the restoration. The cost of moving the communication nodes to semi-permanent air platforms for those ground base stations that are already hopeless is much lower than rebuilding the communication network on the wasteland of Tarrond, and it is also much faster..."

"This...does make some sense," after all, Melita was still seriously thinking about this new plan—she had also heard a little about the deployment of the air communication network on the mainland's western front by the air and space combat group Dawn of the World. And she knew that this temporary communication network played an amazing role in the most difficult moment of the early war and when the communication in the Ogure tribal country was cut off. Without this communication network, it would be impossible for Ogure, who was almost completely collapsed at that time, to end the war She had regained stability before and even had enough energy to send an army to the front, but even so, she still had her own concerns, "The question is... can this communication network really run stably for a long time? After all, what you built was just a temporary network at that time. ..."

"Theoretically, it is quite feasible - as long as the communication node is a large platform like Gorgon, there will be no problem," Rebecca nodded immediately, "We considered an air networking plan before the war, but then The carrying platform discussed at the time was a specially modified, unmanned "Dragon Cavalry", but such a small platform has natural limitations, it is difficult to perform high-altitude missions stably for a long time, and simple automatic mechanisms are also difficult to cope with complex high-altitude missions. environment, but Gorgon does not have this problem.

"Gorgon is a semi-permanent aerial platform very similar in principle and structure to the Dawn of the World - although their scale is several times smaller than the Aerospace Fortress, it also has a complete large-scale power ridge and rotating anti-gravity engine The array and the most critical "Master Brain" system are not afraid of the harsh environment at high altitudes, and can even float stably near the turbulent layer. Its power is abundant. If it carries a large magic network hub, one can cover the area equivalent to a province. range, and it still has a brain, although it is not as flexible as a human mind, but it is enough for it to solve many problems by itself..."

The more Rebecca talked, the more excited she became, and soon she took out a large pile of documents with drawings and annotations from the pile of documents and stuffed them in front of Melita, pointing to the contents above and continuing: "And You see, there is a lot of space on the Gorgon platform, and there are still many places available when it is equipped with large communication nodes. If it is equipped with some golems, it can also do some simple maintenance for itself, so that It greatly reduces the pressure of post-maintenance, you know,

It's a hassle to maintain this kind of big guy, and you don't have enough manpower now..."

If it is said that Rebecca’s previous series of technical introductions just made Melita a little moved, then the last point she mentioned really touched Miss Blue Dragon’s heart—serious labor shortage, this This is the biggest problem facing Tarrond.

An air communication platform with a "brain" that can solve problems by itself, and even maintain itself... This is enough to impress any giant dragon.

Tarrond really needed these aerial platforms. Although Melita's face remained unchanged, she already had the answer in her heart - even if these things were expensive, Tarrond still needed them.

The "rite of passage" destroyed everything in the Tarrond civilization. The once glorious city was buried in the scorching wasteland along with the treasures accumulated over millions of years. But even so, the dragon civilization still has some family background. As the order of the hometown has been gradually restored recently, the exploration team sent by the leader Heragor has discovered several well-preserved underground warehouses, plus some treasures that have been salvaged from the ruins, these things have made people Today's Tarrond is not as stretched as it was last year. It is still a very good deal to exchange some "scrap" that is not currently in use for vital infrastructure.

Those excavated treasures appeared in Melita's mind, those antiques that escaped the flames of war by chance, those shining crystals, gold and silver, and ancient relics. As a giant dragon, she still trembled a little in her heart.

But soon she became firm - anyway, those treasures are not hers, she paid moonlight back then, and the Dragon Nest was full of fake crystals, even the gold coins were iron plated with copper, there was nothing to feel bad about...

"I can't make a decision on this matter, but I will report to our leaders as soon as possible - leaders should understand the value of these platforms, I don't think this matter will be a big problem," Melita tried hard to restore seriousness With an elegant and decent expression, he said solemnly to Gao Wen, "I need a complete piece of information about the Gorgon platform, which will help our scholars make an evaluation—of course, a 'quotation' is also needed by the way."

"I always feel like you had some kind of psychological struggle just now... But it doesn't matter," Gao Wen shrugged, "Rebecca has the information here, and the quotation... depends on whether you plan to buy or rent. , we can provide flexible business solutions.

"The Gorgon platform is an expensive large-scale facility, and the service time of a platform may be as long as decades or hundreds of years-this may not be a long time for you dragons, but as a temporary transition For the 'solution', temporarily renting for a few years may be more cost-effective than directly buying a set of equipment-after all, the ground environment in Tarrond will not be so bad forever, and you will have to rebuild the regular communication network sooner or later.

"Of course, you can also buy them directly. The Gorgon is very versatile. When you no longer need its communication modules, they can also be transformed into facilities such as air experiment platforms or weather observation stations. As long as they are effective Taking advantage of it, buying one is quite cost-effective in the long run—and we can also provide long-term transformation and upgrading services for buyout customers, basically only charging the cost.”

Melita looked at Gawain with weird eyes, and finally she couldn't hold back after the other party finished speaking: "Although I have asked you before... But aren't you really a giant dragon in human skin? ?”

Gao Wen suddenly smiled, disapproving in his heart—just kidding, even the most shameless dragon in the legends only knows how to rob money in human castles, but robbing money... How can robbing money be quicker than doing business?

He wasn't worried at all that the dragons of Tarrond would reject this "business", because the value of these Gorgon platforms was obvious, and to be honest, he didn't intend to charge an exorbitant price—he did. It is his hope that the situation in Tarrond can improve as soon as possible, and that the communication between the dragon's own country and the Loren continent can be restored as soon as possible. It is his heartfelt wish to increase the strength of the alliance, but on this basis... he will make money by the way. Just a little bit.

At this time, Melita took the materials brought by Rebecca, and quickly flipped through the more important parts of them. After gaining a basic understanding of these things, she looked up again as if suddenly remembering something. Wen glanced at it: "By the way, if it is a sky fortress of the size of the Dawn of the World..."

"Unfortunately, that one is not for sale—at least not for the time being," Gao Wen spread his hands, "The production cost of the Dawn of the World is too high, and it requires a huge amount of manpower to support it in the later stage, and it is different from Gorgon. The latter is a general-purpose platform that can be transformed into an unattended work station, but the basic framework of the Dawn of the World is to serve the war, and it needs thousands of operators and garrisons to make it work. I think... this is for you It has little practical value for a giant dragon."

"Okay, I can understand." Melita nodded lightly, the answer was within her expectations, and she was just asking casually.

And as for the "supercritical accelerator" on the Dawn of the World that left a deep impression on everyone... She simply didn't ask.

Half an hour later, Melita left the room with a lot of information. She needs to report these things to Tarrond as soon as possible, and also needs to send the situation of the Tarash meeting back to the mainland as soon as possible. Rebecca stays in the In the study, after Melita left, she approached Gao Wen with a smile: "My lord ancestor, is my salesmanship okay?"

Gao Wen's eyebrows twitched: "Although the performance is not bad, why are you learning this? I don't usually see you interested in this kind of thing."

"My aunt said let me learn more from you and learn to become a great person," Rebecca said immediately without hesitation, "I have been observing for a long time, and I found that it is easy to learn."

Gao Wen: "...?"

"Are there any deficiencies?" Rebecca looked at Gawain's face, and instantly became nervous, "Is it because I didn't imitate the expression properly or when I used words..."

"Ahem, I think it's good for you to do what you usually like," Gawain coughed dryly to hide his embarrassment, "Other people's paths may not be suitable for you, even if this path is mine—and to be honest, Even if I learn from you, I will learn something else..."

Rebecca let out an "oh" half-understood, and didn't know how much she had listened to, but Gao Wen quickly changed the subject: "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about those Gorgon platforms, although our plan is theoretically It is feasible, but it is not that simple to rebuild the communication environment of the Tarrond continent, no matter in terms of land area or the harshness of the environment, it is a far more severe challenge than the Ogure region."

"Yes, so the first step is to solve the communication between Tallond and Loren Continent first. This problem is relatively easy, and it is also the basis for the smooth development of subsequent projects." Rebecca nodded and said, "According to my calculations, We only need to set up a fixed aerial platform above the original eternal storm sea area, and then set up a large magic net hub on the North Harbor and the southern coast of Tarrond to solve this problem, and then we can do it by contacting the local dragon IM up.

"Then, on the local side of Tallond, the priority is to solve the communication between the current few settlements and the development area. According to the way the dragons classify the polluted areas, it is necessary to achieve full coverage of the green area and restore the basic level of the yellow area. For communication, the red zone strives to establish a certain number of 'signal zones'. As for the deeper places... that can only be given up first. Big guy, even if the structure is much simpler than the Dawn of the World, it can't be built in a short while."

Gao Wen unconsciously tapped the table with his fingers, which was his habit of falling into thought. After a moment of contemplation, he suddenly said: "What standard did you use to design the export to the Gorgon platform in Tarrond? ?”

"Ah?" Rebecca was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, "Just follow the parameters of the normal situation."

"A communication platform does not need an energy system capable of supporting a supercritical accelerator, nor does it need a fortress shield that can resist a single 'Wound of Annihilation'. Generally speaking, it only needs to ensure that it can operate normally at high altitudes in harsh environments That's fine," Gao Wen stopped tapping on the table, and said to Rebecca with a smile, "I have a transformation plan...

"First of all, we cut the energy array in half, reduce the shield generator by one-third, and change the remaining generators to conventional models. Since the energy array is cut, the corresponding power ridge can also be smaller. Anyway, it There is no need to support such a large load... The rigid frame and keel should be cut a little bit. After all, we don't need to install giant cannons on it. At most, we can install some anti-aircraft firepower to defend against aerial monsters or mana spirits...

"The crew cabin can be completely cancelled, just leave a few board rooms for the maintenance personnel who occasionally go up, and by the way, the armor outside the living area can also be canceled, so that its overall size can be reduced a little, anyway, it's enough for us. As for the anti-gravity engine array... Now that the overall weight has been 'lightened', the anti-gravity ring should also be adjusted to a certain extent..."

As Gao Wen talked and thought, he quickly summed up several main transformation directions, and finally added a sentence: "Basically, except for the main brain's living environment, I think other places can be adjusted."

Rebecca: "..."

The girl was memorizing while listening, and she didn't raise her head until the old ancestor's words fell. She had a look of astonishment on her face, and at the same time hesitated a bit: "Is it okay to change it like this?"

Gao Wen asked rhetorically, "Is there anything wrong with it? Are there any theoretical problems?"

"Theoretically... it's not a problem. As long as you adjust it carefully, it is indeed enough to meet the needs of use," Rebecca scratched her head, "and both the cost and the production cycle can be greatly reduced, even at the 115 project production base. There are some semi-finished products that have not yet completed the final assembly, and with a little disassembly and adjustment, several finished products can be 'assembled'."

"That's fine," Gao Wen waved his hand, "Didn't we carry out similar modifications when we sold the first generation of magic crystal rail guns and magic engines? This is called the foreign trade version..."

"But the giant dragon should be able to see it," Rebecca said with a little worry, "They have seen the real 'Gorgon' on the battlefield, and they are all well-informed..."

"So we have to explain it to them," Gao Wen said with a serious face, "We can't do things that deceive customers, so get another document later and explain this 'downgrade' to Tarrond The specific situation and reasons for this, tell them that this thing is still enough to use, and it is much cheaper than the original version. With the general character of the dragon and the current situation of Tarrond, they will definitely consider this more cost-effective plan—especially After they've seen the offer from the original Gorgon."

Rebecca nodded with half understanding, and finally asked subconsciously: "Then this 'reformed' Gorgon is still called Gorgon?"

Gao Wen thought for a while: "Then call it Gorgon Youth Version..."
