Chapter 7: Construction of the Heavy Fusion Engine

Qin Yue slightly adjusted the deflection angle, and the spacecraft's orbit changed from a straight line to a circle.

Behind him, Guan Qiang didn't notice the problem yet.

Blue Star also has AI autonomous driving, but it is better to say it is artificial intelligence than artificial intelligence, because the program cannot make a blueprint and make the sea of ​​stars instantly generated. It can only type lines of code, so the scientific progress of software programs Not big.

Therefore, Guan Qiang used manual operation. He stared at the small dots on the screen attentively, while guessing what kind of mine this person had discovered?

Is it carbon copper? Or black steel?

But as he was flying, he felt something was wrong. Why did I have to change the direction after flying for a while?

Little did he know that Qin Yue had already taken him in a big circle and flew to the original location of the iron-nickel meteorite.

The controller manipulates the robotic arm to connect the giant whale and the meteorite, and then extends the probe, drilling equipment, and mining equipment to start work.

There is no onomatopoeia here because there are no sounds in the stars.

"Huh? Stopped? Have we arrived?" Guan Qiang felt something was wrong. He looked at the map. This seemed to be only the middle of the asteroid belt!

Will there be precious minerals here?

Scratching his head, he still moved forward, then turned on the optical scanning equipment, which was a deep space telescope, and began to observe Qin Yue several kilometers away.

It doesn’t matter what it looks like, the meteorite under this giant whale looks so familiar to me!

"Grass!"

Guan Qiang hurriedly came over and turned on the free microphone: "Brother, what you are doing here is not authentic. Move me away, and then you will open my mine?"

"Huh? When did I transfer you? I just went around in a circle outside, and when I came back I found that you didn't want this mineral point, so wouldn't it be mine? I remember that there is a stipulation in the Interstellar Development Law that the diameter is 800 The meteorite below 1 meter belongs to whoever takes it!" Qin Yue asked.

"You!" Guan Qiang was speechless. What should I say? You really didn't transfer me. I thought you found a good mine and then chased after you?

How can I afford to disgrace this person!

"Okay, very good. I, Guan Qiang, have been mining for twenty years, but I didn't expect that I would stumble on a little brat like you! Just wait!" Guan Qiang snorted and drove away in the boat!

There are no weapons installed on the mining machine. If he wants to fight, he can only drive his boat to collide with Qin Yue.

But at that time, it was the same fate, and the gain outweighed the loss.

It's better to write down his number and look for an opportunity to get revenge later.

"Guan Qiang, is it him?"

Qin Yue touched his chin. He was not a superman. He would remember everything that happened over tens of thousands of years. At most, he would remember some major historical events.

However, Guan Qiang was involved in a major event.

The incident of White Horse surrendering to the enemy!

"Is it the same name? His accent matches that of Guan Qiang in history. That should be him! Now he is the owner of the mine. When everyone in the country enters the Star Sea, he will form an expedition team. What will happen next? , it just makes sense!" Qin Yue thought about it and wrote it down in a notebook.

This matter is not troublesome to deal with. Just send a younger brother to do it when the time comes.

The most important thing now is to transform a battleship first.

Digging iron ore is much more troublesome than graphite. Qin Yue worked hard for four hours and finally dug enough ore.

On the Xinghai construction interface, the pattern representing the fusion engine has turned green!

Then, set off and run away!

Asteroid was given a shot, but he seemed to feel nothing. He continued to drive wildly and disappeared from Qin Yue's sight in a few seconds.

"Build!" Qin Yue clicked the button and saw a progress bar starting to load. From the monitor in front of him, he could also see that the minerals he piled in the warehouse were slowly dissipating like dust!

The low-grade minerals in the Star Sea do not need to be refined. It can also be said that in the eyes of the origin civilization that created the Star Sea, this kind of low-grade mineral is garbage, the kind that no one uses, and naturally does not bother to engage in any complicated procedures. .

The level of civilization on earth is too low, which is actually a bonus for the earth.

However, reaching advanced levels is also a problem. It is also a trouble to hold advanced mines without refining technology, not knowing how to use them, and not knowing how to upgrade.

Building equipment in Xinghai does not require a factory, but it does take time. The more advanced the product, the longer it will take.

Rebuilding the fusion engine, as the iconic technology of Level 1 civilization, obviously took a long time, lasting a full thirty minutes.

Thirty minutes later, a 30-meter-long, 5-meter-diameter "needle" in the shape of a cylinder appeared in front of Chen Xi.

Although it was not a needle, when Chen Xi saw it, the first thing he thought of was the needle in the wandering earth.

Speaking of which, fusion technology is also found in Wandering Earth.

A planetary engine is a very large fusion engine.

Well, The Wandering Earth is a book written by a science fiction author who works as a fisherman on the earth. He also has many other classic works. The weapons and technologies in them are still used by Qin Yue tens of thousands of years later.

For example, the name Tomoko, and water droplets.

By the way, this author is currently working as a scientific consultant in the Blue Star Corps.

But right now, he had another important thing to do.

That is, replace the original engine with the current one.

The spacecraft has a built-in repair system. The heavy fusion engine is modified according to the original spacecraft engine technology. All interfaces are perfectly matched. Just remove the original one and install this one.

The whole operation steps are not troublesome. The design of the mining machine is very convenient for many soldiers with low cultural level. If they can operate it, Qin Yue can do it.

Qin Yue flipped through the manual for a while, and then started to work.

First shut down the engine, then control the mechanical arm to remove the connections one by one, snap.

Half an hour later, the original 30-meter-long engine was thrown out of the spacecraft and floated in space.

It also takes up space in the warehouse, and Qin Yue has no place to throw it, so he just throws it into space.

Although there is suspicion of throwing garbage everywhere, don't worry about it. The engine of the giant whale X6 is also worth some money. If someone touches it, it should be pulled back and sold.

If it is not sold, a circle of iron sheet is placed outside the engine, and it is also a new ship!

Then the heavy fusion engine was installed, and the connections in various places corresponded one by one.

The whole process was operated by Qin Yue facing the screen with a robotic arm, so it still felt like playing a game.

Very simple.

Then, the last step!

Start!

Qin Yue put the high-purity carbon he had dug before directly into the engine, and then clicked to start!

"Buzz!"

The whole body of the Giant Whale shook suddenly, and then a stream of blue and white particles surged out from the original position of the engine, and the whole ship began to accelerate rapidly like a wild horse!

"Wow!" Qin Yue actually felt a push on his back in a vacuum!

It is conceivable how fast this speed should be!

"Zhizi, how fast is it now?" Chen Xi asked.

"The acceleration has reached 6G and is still increasing. The estimated limit can reach 15G! Stop after accelerating the spacecraft to 950,000 km/h!" Zhizi replied.

"This is not fast!" I remember that my Giant Whale's speed was already 800,000 before, how come it is only 950,000 after changing to a fusion engine?

"The maximum speed of this ship is designed to be 950,000 km/h. If it exceeds this speed, the outer shell of the spacecraft may not be able to resist the meteorite particles from the outside, and the various systems inside the spacecraft will also have problems!" Zhizi explained.

"Oh, I almost forgot that the outer shell material has not been changed yet."

Science is supreme, and materials are king.

Qin Yue also has a lot of classic material technologies, but at this stage, the only one that can be used is a carbon-titanium nanomaterial.

It is also commonly known as the flying blade material.
