Chapter 21 Cobra Destroyer
"Why don't you see Ellie?"
Looking around, Li Meng asked.
He hadn't seen Ellie since he woke up in the morning.
This is not normal. The two sisters are inseparable on weekdays.
With a slight blush on her face, Irene whispered: "She... she has her period, it's not convenient, she can only come in a few days."
Hearing this, Li Meng's face showed understanding.
No wonder there are always a few days every month when either Ellie or Irene is not there.
Women always have a few days of trouble every month, this is inevitable.
"There is news from the bridge, the unknown signal source sent a message again, the content is: "Brother, I have no ill intentions, we are all human beings on Earth, it's rare to be so close, let's go together, it can be regarded as a care." "
001's voice sounded again, bringing new information to Li Meng.
If Li Meng didn't know his purpose before.
Now it is confirmed.
He should want to form an alliance, but he can't find anyone, so he can only send out high-frequency signals.
As long as someone receives and replies, the two sides can communicate.
Li Meng stuffed a green fruit into his mouth, chewing it while thinking quickly in his mind.
"Can we find the source of the signal?"
001: "Without the corresponding electronic equipment, we can't locate the source of the signal."
Li Meng asked again: "What are the results of the radar scan?"
The radar system on the Far Journey is the most commonly used auspicious array of the human empire in Warhammer 40K.
It is an integrated radar with comprehensive functions.
001: "No findings yet."
Don't be careless...
The signal he sent is not directional, but non-directional.
With the place where he is as the center point, a low-frequency signal is sent outward.
If people within a certain distance receive the signal and reply, their position will be exposed.
Maybe he means well and just wants to unite all the nearby humans.
But people's hearts are sinister, and no matter what era, evil people will never be absent.
In the era of the universe without order, people's hearts cannot stand the test.
However...
"Notify the bridge, do not turn off the auspicious array, and monitor the S-01888 star system 24 hours a day."
You can't be careless at any time, and being cautious will never go wrong.
Li Meng suddenly thought of the "Cobra" destroyer.
There are more than two months left...
As long as the "Cobra" destroyer is launched, he will have the ability to protect himself.
By then, he will be able to be a little more radical.
Thinking of this, Li Meng said to 001: "001, open the hull data blueprint of the "Cobra" destroyer."
As Li Meng's voice fell, a blue light shot out from 001's electronic eyes.
A holographic screen formed in front of Li Meng.
In Warhammer 40K Human Empire, the navy's warships are divided into five levels.
The smallest is the destroyer, followed by the escort ship, cruiser, battlecruiser, and battleship.
As the smallest starship of the human empire, the "Cobra" destroyer is 1.5 kilometers long and 0.5 kilometers wide.
As a torpedo destroyer, the "Cobra" destroyer has 10 20m caliber torpedo launch ports at the bow.
It can launch powerful anti-ship torpedoes.
In addition to anti-ship torpedoes, the "Cobra" destroyer is also equipped with two 10-meter-class medium-range small-caliber light spears.
The close-in defense weapons have 164 twin-mounted 50mm caliber six-barrel automatic cannons, which can effectively intercept small aircraft close to the body.
From the appearance, the "Cobra" destroyer is not bloated.
The reason for the width of 0.5 kilometers is that there are structures similar to flying wings in front and behind the hull.
The tips of the flying wings each have a huge golden door panel, like four shields.
The shield-shaped part can withstand fire attacks from the side and effectively protect the bridge and the torpedo storage room at the bow.
1.5 kilometers in length...
Looking at the blueprint of the "Cobra" destroyer on the screen, Li Meng muttered in his heart.
In most science fiction movies and animations, a 1.5-kilometer-long ship is a battleship-level ship,
And in Warhammer 40K, a 1.5-kilometer-long warship is only the smallest destroyer.
The construction speed is not slow, and it can be completed in about a year.
Although it occupies 70% of manpower and material resources.
But this also shows that the "Cobra" destroyer can be mass-produced.
Seeing this, Li Meng waved his hand slightly.
The holographic screen suddenly dissipated...
Turning his head to look at the star ring, the starry sky, and the earth-colored No. 1 star outside the glass wall.
The expression on Li Meng's face was only calm.
After the "Cobra" destroyer is launched, there will be a lot of things to do.
The Far Journey cannot move, and other small aircraft do not have the ability to fly at superluminal speed.
Even if he wants to do something, he can't do it.
...
It's a new day again.
On the other side of the planet, the sun slowly rises, announcing the arrival of a new day.
Early in the morning, Irina hurried to the preparation room.
She received a message from Donald, the scientific sage, asking her to go to the preparation room.
Walking in the long metal corridor, Irina was wearing a purple low-cut tight waist dress.
She lowered her head, her face was thoughtful, and I don't know what she was thinking.
Why call her?
Since the Draven family was awakened, they have controlled all the rights.
Of course, this right comes from the regent.
Without the regent, the Mechanicus would not cooperate with them to exercise their rights.
With the development and the increasing scale of the Ark Project, more and more slaves have been awakened.
Now, all five thousand slaves have been awakened.
There are nearly two thousand "slave" mining machines working in the dark universe outside.
They are divided into three groups and three management departments.
One is the mining group, which is mainly responsible for mining mineral resources, with a number of about one thousand two hundred.
One is the engineering group, which is mainly responsible for engineering construction, with a number of about 400.
One is the logistics support group, which is mainly responsible for the maintenance and care of mining machines and engineering machines.
Among the three management departments, the logistics support group is under the charge of the Mechanicus.
The maintenance machine it uses is also transformed from the "slave" mining machine, with some maintenance equipment installed.
The slaves who drive the maintenance machine are not ordinary slaves, but machine slaves, a kind of slaves transformed by machinery.
They can integrate well with the machine and use the maintenance machine more accurately.
There are not many, only more than 150.
She is not the head of the Draven family, but only the mistress.
At least on the surface, it is Odysseus, his husband, who controls the power.
Although she often goes to the palace to report government affairs to the regent.
But her positioning of herself has been consistent from beginning to end.
She is just her husband's assistant, assisting her husband in managing all government affairs.
The regent did not explicitly object, which means he acquiesced.
Donald, the great sage of science and technology, should call her husband, not her.
After all, it was Odysseus, her husband, who was in charge, and she was just his assistant.
Irina had guessed why the great sage of science and technology Donald asked her to go to the preparation room.
But she still couldn't figure it out.
