Chapter 36 Harvest
The sound of metal twisting and deforming, which made people cover their ears, came from the bottom of the spacecraft.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud noise when the spacecraft hit the ground.
However, Chen Ming was obviously not a fool. If the spacecraft really fell to the ground, he would not be able to get away with it.
So before doing this, Chen Ming used the computing power of the spacecraft computer to calculate some data of the spacecraft.
With these data, Chen Ming can choose a specific time point to start the buffer device.
Before the spacecraft hits the ground, the buffer device just limits the speed of the fall to the impact range that the spacecraft armor can withstand.
Therefore, the impact of the spacecraft landing did not cause any damage to the spacecraft itself.
Except that there may be some small objects on the spacecraft that will shake and fall to the ground, there will be no major problems.
Just thinking about this, Chen Ming saw Xiaoshi running out of the storage compartment at the back and climbing onto his shoulder.
Its little paws pressed on its head, and its eyes were full of confusion and puzzlement.
Chen Ming reached out and touched its head, comforted it, and continued to do his business.
At this time, the three-dimensional image of the spaceship in Chen Ming's eyes showed obvious changes.
The bottom armor of the spaceship was dented in three pieces, which was obviously caused by the spaceship hitting the mechanical family.
It has to be said that the mechanical family is really hard, and the shape of the dented armor is almost the same as that of the mechanical family.
However, no matter how hard the mechanical family's armor is, the delicate electronic components inside them can't withstand the impact of thousands of tons of spaceships.
Since the spaceship hit the ground just now, the dull hammering sound of the electromagnetic weapons of the mechanical family has completely stopped.
Chen Ming didn't hear any abnormal sound from under the spaceship at this time.
It should be impossible for the mechanical family to stand up again.
Chen Ming controlled the spaceship to take off and repaired the armor of the spaceship at the same time.
After a period of gradually accumulated fatigue, the metal liquid flowing out of the storage compartment squeezed out the bodies of the mechanical family stuck at the bottom of the spaceship, and the three mechanical bodies fell to the ground like broken dolls.
Their appearance looked intact, but Chen Ming couldn't say how broken they were inside.
The spaceship landed again on the open space next to it.
Chen Ming got off the spaceship and started to clean up the battlefield.
He used the carts from the space station to move all the valuable things onto the spaceship after checking their safety.
At this time, Chen Ming had to say that the mechanical tribe was quite good.
Before his spaceship came down, he took the initiative to distance himself from the wreckage of the mind pulse device, so that the spaceship would not crush the good things that might still be left in the wreckage.
The things left by the mechanical tribe were not many, so Chen Ming quickly packed them up and returned to the spaceship.
After checking several times to make sure that nothing was left out.
The spaceship took off again and returned to the temporary camp.
At this point, Chen Ming really relaxed.
The fatigue accumulated from repairing the spaceship many times rushed into his brain.
However, Chen Ming still managed to hold on, and even began to count the gains this time with some excitement.
It seemed that there was nothing to count about the things he got from the mechanical tribe.
There were three mechanical bodies in total, two combat models, one maintenance model, plus the wreckage of the mind pulse generator, that's all.
But thinking from another perspective, although the quantity of this harvest is not large, the quality is quite high.
Especially the two combat mechanicals.
Chen Ming's eyes kept sweeping over the large electromagnetic weapons on their right arms, and his hands couldn't help but touch the guns, feeling the cold touch.
Even though the two electromagnetic weapons, which were nearly 1.7 meters long, looked a little old and were slightly bent due to the heavy pressure of the spacecraft, it didn't prevent Chen Ming from appreciating it.
After all, this was a weapon that had penetrated the spacecraft armor with one shot before.
Chen Ming fiddled with the electromagnetic weapons for a long time, and suddenly let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
After satisfying his own ideas, it was clear what to do next.
Chen Ming went to the captain's room and took the repair kit to the storage compartment.
The company was quite generous in distributing these repair tools, including cutting tools made of special grade metal materials.
That is, materials that are one grade higher than the high-grade metal ores collected by the Type II Mining Laser·Modified.
Chen Ming was not sure what kind of material it was, but Chen Ming tried it directly and found that the cutting tools could indeed cut the armor of the mechanical family.
So Chen Ming immediately removed the two large electromagnetic weapons.
Then he opened the machine gun panel nervously and chose to replace it.
When he saw an option appear on the replacement panel, Chen Ming's nervousness immediately dissipated.
Just as he had expected before, the weapons of the mechanical family could indeed be loaded as ship weapons.
And the name of this electromagnetic weapon was also displayed on the replacement panel.
[Type I Mechanical Electromagnetic Javelin]
A simple and unadorned name, with the characteristics of a weapon, Javelin.
Its penetration ability is indeed worthy of this name.
Chen Ming selected it on the panel, and a new panel popped up immediately.
[Type I Mechanical Electromagnetic Javelin]
[Type: Small Kinetic Weapon]
[Manufacturer: Mechanical RMW-113 Mothership]
[Ammunition Load: 3/50]
[Effective Range: 20,000 meters]
[Firing Rate: 10 rounds/minute]
[Durability: 9%]
[Replacement: Yes/No]
Chen Ming looked at the content on the panel and blinked uncertainly.
After making sure that he was not mistaken, he quickly wrote down all the words after the manufacturer on the terminal.
If Chen Ming remembered the news he had read correctly, the mothership should be a type of aircraft carrier belonging to the Mechanical Clan.
However, the Mechanical Clan's aircraft carrier is still too far away for Chen Ming now.
So after recording the manufacturer, Chen Ming turned his attention to the properties of the weapon itself.
Type I mechanical electromagnetic javelin is the same as the machine gun, both are small kinetic weapons.
Chen Ming was not surprised by this.
Although the gun itself is a bit too big compared to the size of a human, it is still relatively small for a ship, so there is no problem with small weapons.
It is more outrageous that a weapon used by a single mechanical family can be used as a ship weapon.
Although its firing rate displayed on the panel is a bit pitiful compared to the firing rate of the machine gun, its power can be regarded as making up for the lost firing rate.
Chen Ming pressed "Yes" on the panel.
The charge javelin that had just been unloaded on the floor suddenly melted, and its gray-green shell melted and turned bright white, flowing out of the spacecraft.
It looks like the gray-green color is an oxide layer, and the mechanical family itself should be this bright white.
As the bright white liquid flows out, some ordinary metal liquid also flows in from the outside of the spacecraft.
These metal liquids gradually condensed into the shape of a modified machine gun in front of Chen Ming, lying quietly on the ground.
On the panel of the spacecraft, the portside weapon had been replaced with an electromagnetic javelin.
Looking at the pitiful 9% durability on the panel, Chen Ming's eyes turned to the mechanical armor that was the same color as the electromagnetic javelin.
Then he picked up the tool and cut a few pieces of armor from the mechanical family as materials.
After confirming that the name of this material was Baiyun steel, a kind of high-grade metal, Chen Ming pressed the repair button of the weapon.
The bright white liquid mixed with other materials needed to repair the electromagnetic javelin flowed out of the spacecraft.
Soon, a brand new type I mechanical electromagnetic javelin appeared in his eyes.
This weapon full of past fantasies made Chen Ming a little unable to suppress his excitement.
It's a pity that there is no target for him to test it now.
Chen Ming was like a child who had just got a toy gun, and this idea suddenly popped up in his mind.
Wait.
It seems so.
Chen Ming raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the spacecraft.
Looking up through the ceiling is the space station filled with Zerg.
