Chapter 514 Construction Project and Rumors

Fortress sky island port, ship construction dry dock, industrial command ship module production project port.

The new construction dock is juxtaposed with the engineering dock port so that heavy robotic arms between the two docks can be transferred to each other via rails.

The term dry dock is not accurate, after all, a ship floating in the air rarely touches the water.

If the sky is an ocean for aerospace ships, then it can be said that it was built in the "sea".

First, the floating stone array module at the bottom must be hoisted to the frame by the floating ship. This is the fulcrum of the entire floating ship construction project. Subsequent hull construction work will use these connected floating stone array engines as the foundation. .

The frame is a simple welded frame supported by fine steel. The hot light blade will melt the interface of the metal bracket so that it can be docked smoothly.

"A little to the left... ok... this is where it is..."

The engineering commander adjusted the plates that were about to fall, allowing the aerospace ship above to control their position.

A floating stone slab the size of a house fell and fell into the gap in the frame that was just big enough to accommodate the floating stone slab... Because the floating stone has weak buoyancy when it is not in use, a simple frame is enough to accommodate it. The weight of the slab.

After the engineer measured the distance on site and found no problems, he entered the welding process and filled the gaps in the frame with the prepared metal boxes.

"The installation is complete...tell the console to start welding."

The rotating long robotic arm fell, and the prism array installed on the top of the robotic arm unfolded like a flower, forming a stream of bright yellow light that fell in the middle of the metal connecting material and melted the originally laid metal material.

After the metal material cools, the two floating stone plates are physically connected in parallel.

Arcane Focus Generator, Thermal Melting Beam, a gift from another world.

There are also a bunch of arcane focus generators stuffed in Jilin's warehouse that were originally war equipment... They only need to adjust the output power slightly to use them as welding machines.

It doesn’t even need to be researched and developed anymore, just modify it and lay a long-distance energy supply circuit.

Even the problem of low output power has been solved. They don't need such high output power for welding work.

The heat flows down, the metal melts, and the crimson liquid completely fills the gap.

This process needs to be repeated several times in order not to leave gaps or cavities.

When the connection is completely completed, the most skilled rune craftsman in the territory comes forward and pours paint into the reserved connection gap to test whether any rune circuits are damaged due to heat.

This work typically lasts an hour, as the runesmith tests and repairs damaged nodes and manually connects the nodes of the two engines.

Ships using auxiliary propulsion engines can naturally adopt a modular construction model. The auxiliary propulsion engines can reduce some of the negative effects caused by the loss of structural strength.

Built in sections and finally spliced ​​together, this is a big thing with a main structure of 350 meters long...three times as long as the Island-Round Alliance's Sky Ship.

‘It doesn’t matter if this thing needs to be diverted for a day, as long as it can be delivered to its destination. ’——by Ji Lin.

Turning ability and acceleration are also... as bad as the larger ships.

They had enough time for the big guy to complete its turn.

If the steering ability is not considered, the engineers of the territory can even completely weld a considerable part of the structure, which also speeds up the construction of industrial command ships.

The only good news may be that this big guy can be equipped with a steam engine and use turbine blades for propulsion, which can slightly increase its moving speed.

Although large ship steam engines mainly provide energy for the steam transportation rails and various steam machinery above.

The construction of the framework will take a total of one month.

One month is already the most optimistic figure under Gui Yu's guidance.

The factories in the territory are already at full capacity so that the project can be completed before Guiyu leaves...so that they can get more guidance and save time on error correction.

The pessimistic figure is... Guiyu will not be able to complete the construction after the three-month vacation.

Of course, such a large-scale ship construction cannot be hidden from anyone. As long as a ship passes by, you can see the busy project site in the dry dock.

In order to ensure the speed of the project, the construction of the same section was carried out in multiple dry docks in an orderly manner, and was finally spliced ​​together by temporary floating stone propulsion devices.

Anyone who is not a fool can see the gradually taking shape of the large ship frame.

The demi-human captains do not know the purpose of this large ship...even though Jilin officials have stated many times that this is a pure transport ship.

But none of the demihumans believed the announcement posted on the bulletin board. They were more inclined to think that it was a way for outsiders to deepen their control over this world.

You must know that the Governor relies on establishing his authority in the sky island world because others have no way to resist large ships... The weapon output power and weapon range of large ships are not comparable to that of small ships.

As for this frame, the old captain of the aerospace ship could tell at a glance that it was larger than the governor's cruiser...at least twice as big.

When the old captains communicated privately, they all formed a judgment that it was more than 300 meters... They couldn't measure it directly, so they could just rely on their eyes to see if it was close.

With such a huge platform, what will be installed on it...

That's all hard to say.

If such a large carrier platform is not equipped with something, the subhumans themselves would not believe it.

Moreover, a normal transport ship of 100 meters is enough, there is no need to build it so large.

However, even if the subhumans have such speculations, they have no idea what to do when they see the large ship frame gradually taking shape in the newly built super-large dock...

They just treat it as a topic of conversation after drinking and tea in the city built in the territory.

One day is one day, compared with such a large ship, they are more afraid of the patrol team's high-speed cruise ship...

The big guys can't catch up with them even if they run for a lifetime, and it's hard to say about the high-speed cruise ship.

Until this news was passed to other areas by the captains of Sky Island when they delivered goods.
