Chapter 112 Entering the Engineer Room
With the efforts of the Xuefeng super main gun, the fleet finally passed through the congestion area caused by the wreckage of the drone.
Looking at the giant Engineer that was slowly approaching, Qi Yiming had an indescribable complex feeling.
Once upon a time, this giant was a hero supporting human expeditions, but now it has been floating here quietly for thousands of years, with no one paying attention.
"I hope you can reproduce the style of the past in my hands..." Qi Yiming said this silently while looking at the Engineer in front of him.
Because the Engineer's friend-or-foe identification system had problems, although all drones were lost, the shipboard intelligent brain did not actively guide Qi Yiming's fleet to dock after Qi Yiming and his team approached.
Qi Yiming and his team could only stare at the empty berths on both sides of the main body of the Engineer, which could be changed in size according to the level of the warship.
"How do we get in?" Qiao Shan seemed to be much more excited than Qi Yiming when he looked at the Engineer so closely.
Qi Yiming could probably guess what Qiao Shan was thinking. His Azure shield generator exploded, and it was impossible to repair it with the current level of human technology.
He could only rely on this giant in front of him. If he could not get the control authority of the Engineer, he would most likely lose the Azure.
Qi Yiming smiled and comforted him, saying, "Don't worry. The enemy identification system is not working, but the information of the former federal soldiers stored in the intelligent brain is still there. As long as I get close to the Engineer and wake up the identification system of the intelligent brain, the control will naturally come, and your Azure will be repaired."
After hearing Qi Yiming's words, Qiao Shan hurriedly urged, "What are you waiting for?"
"You have to give me some time to transfer to the transport boat..."
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Qi Yiming finally took the transport boat to the Engineer.
The transport boat transported Qi Yiming to the exit of the ejection drone. He wore a thin extravehicular space suit and climbed in from the exit of the drone.
This was planned by Qi Yiming a long time ago. There was a scanning device on the outside of the drone exit to prevent enemy personnel from sneaking into the warship through the drone exit.
Qi Yiming could just use this scanning device to wake up the ship-borne intelligent brain.
When Qi Yiming panted and crawled under the scanner, he deliberately slapped the ship around the scanner, and soon the scanner responded.
A red light curtain swept across Qi Yiming's body, and then Qi Yiming heard a surge of electricity from the communication device on the space suit, followed by a cold electronic synthesized sound.
"Major Qi Yiming, do you need help?"
"Intelligent brain, open the passage, I want to go in."
"Okay, but you are an abnormal boarding, please report to the warship security department within ten minutes, otherwise I will use my authority to order the security force to arrest you."
While the ship-borne intelligent brain was speaking, Qi Yiming had already crawled into the interior of the Engineer through the passage.
"Intelligent brain, confirm whether there are still people alive on the Engineer..."
Qi Yiming, who entered the interior of the Engineer, did not follow the requirements of the ship-borne intelligent brain. He knew that it was impossible for anyone to survive on the Engineer.
After 8 hours of fighting, if there were still humans alive on the Engineer, they would have contacted him long ago.
Sure enough, after a while, the shipboard intelligent computer spoke again: "All active personnel on the Engineer are missing, and only Qi Yiming, the lieutenant major of the strategic strike fleet, is alive."
Qi Yiming didn't expect that the shipboard intelligent computer would count him, who had just stepped onto the ship.
The personnel on the Engineer should have been transferred to other warships on the way to escape, or entered the colonial spacecraft used by the former Federation to escape.
As for the Engineer, it is likely to be abandoned.
The reason why it was abandoned is very simple. With sufficient supplies, the Engineer is indeed a good logistics ship.
However, in the case of extreme shortage of supplies, the Engineer is a big energy consumer, and the Federation escape fleet will abandon her helplessly.
"I request to take over the Engineer..." Qi Yiming ordered the shipboard intelligent computer again without thinking.
"According to Federal Emergency Act No. 321, in the event of the disappearance or death of all shipboard personnel, friendly forces can take over the supreme command of this ship. Major Qi Yiming, you automatically become the highest authority holder of this ship. This order has been recorded in the ship's navigation log for the federal military to verify."
After the voice of the shipboard intelligent brain fell, a blue light swept across a bar code on Qi Yiming's space suit, which stored Qi Yiming's personal information.
At this point, Qi Yiming was truly relieved, because from this moment on, the Engineer was completely in Qi Yiming's hands.
"Intelligent brain, check the enemy identification system..."
"The enemy identification system has been offline. Due to energy shortages, it cannot be repaired for the time being."
"Mark the warships outside the Engineer, and give them temporary codes to guide them to dock..." Qi Yiming ordered the shipboard intelligent brain again.
Soon, Wang Shuhua and his group, who stayed in place waiting, discovered the abnormality of the Engineer.
There was movement in the berthing area originally located on both sides of the main body of the ship.
Several beams filled with mechanical arms began to move rapidly, adjusting the size of the berth.
The beams finally stopped moving until the berth was adjusted to just enough to berth all the warships.
Then Wang Shuhua and his men saw a light blue dotted line suddenly appear in front of their respective warships, extending from the position where each warship was parked to the adjusted berth.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Wang Shuhua said in the fleet channel: "Yiming should have taken control of the Engineer. This is to guide us to berth the warships. Everyone should fly along the dotted line in front of their warships."
Under the guidance of the Engineer, several warships slowly docked in their respective berths, and then several fixed cables and a docking channel extended from one side of the berth.
Only then did everyone wear space suits to enter the interior of the Engineer, which made them very fascinated, for a tour.
Qi Yiming took the commuter car inside the Engineer to the docking ports of several warships to pick up people, and at the same time asked people to install many energy blocks on the commuter car.
Ten minutes later, everyone took the shuttle bus to the heart of the Engineer, the power room.
Qi Yiming placed the energy blocks he brought on an empty platform one by one.
Qi Yiming had just stood still when the cold synthetic voice of the shipboard intelligent brain sounded again: "The spare energy block has been detected and placed in place. Start the replacement procedure."
Everyone wearing extravehicular space suits saw that the energy block that Qi Yiming had just placed on the platform was quickly grabbed by the mechanical arm and put into a square metal cabinet.
The interior of the cabinet was divided into many grids, and each grid could just fit an energy block.
Soon all the energy blocks were put into the square metal cabinet, and then the cabinet door was automatically locked.
The moment the cabinet door was locked, the energy pipelines on the surface of the cabinet lit up with a light blue light, which looked very charming.
Qi Yiming explained to everyone: "This is an energy block array, which is a power supply device specially designed for a giant like the Engineer."
A few minutes later, the Engineer completed the replacement of the energy array, and Qi Yiming found that a lot of white smoke came out from every corner of the Engineer's power room.
Qi Yiming was afraid that others would get nervous, so he quickly explained: "This is because the Engineer is adjusting the internal environment. The white mist is the cabin air that has been stored in advance. Don't be nervous."
