Can My Battleship Be Upgraded?

From KQ-03 to the asteroid belt mining area, it takes about thirteen hours with the high-power engine of the Mine Master II.

The routes en route have already been cleaned and maintained regularly.

There is no need for Wang Dong to drive manually throughout the entire journey.

After entering the automatic navigation stage, it can be completely controlled by the shipboard optical brain.

After setting the No. 2 entrance to the mining area as the destination, Wang Dong left the console.

Methodically go through a set of stretches, then a set of core activation exercises, and finally, advanced muscle training for the upper body.

The amount of exercise is not small, it takes a full hour.

Wang Dong was sweating profusely.

"If you haven't practiced physical training, your physical fitness is still a bit poor."

Shaking his head, Wang Dong muttered to himself with some dissatisfaction.

"Unfortunately, the entry requirements for the privileged class to control the training requirements of body training are too difficult in a remote place like the mining star region."

From ancient times to the present, the existence of classes has always been unavoidable in human civilization.

This is true even in the interstellar era where theoretical productivity far exceeds actual demand.

Compared with the planetary age, the privileged class in the interstellar age has made its position more stable by virtue of the various high-end resources it controls, or monopolizes.

In the interstellar age, the absolute gap between classes is far greater than in the planetary age.

But Wang Dong is not worried about this.

The current time is June 1, star calendar 10103, which is only ten days away from the turning point of fate in the previous life.

If all goes well, Wang Dong will be able to reach that level in ten days.

Wang Dong was accustomed to using celestial calendars instead of using some local chronometric calendar.

The revolution and autobiography periods of each planet are different. The definitions of 24 hours in a day (rotation period) and 365 days in a year (revolution period) are only applicable to the hometown of mankind, Blue Star.

Therefore, strictly speaking, each planet has a time calendar that matches the actual specific conditions of that planet.

But for groups that live in the universe for a long time, or often travel between multiple planets, it is obvious that a fixed time calendar is still needed as a standard calendar to facilitate time calculation.

Ephemeris is such an existence.

According to the algorithm of 24 hours a day and 365 days a year, a timing calendar is set that can be used throughout human civilization.

Thirteen hours passed by in a flash.

In the process of sorting out the context in his mind, Mine Master Type 2 has already arrived at his destination.

"Arrived at the second entrance of the asteroid belt mining area, the automatic navigation is about to end, please switch to manual mode in time."

The prompt tone of the shipboard optical brain is monotonous and boring.

This Mine Master II near-air mining spacecraft is not only an old model, but also a low-profile one. Even the personalized voice prompt function is not enabled.

Lao Niu, who was in charge of purchasing, was still so stingy as expected.

Wang Dong has already taken a seat on the operating table in advance. After hearing the beep, pull the joystick to switch the driving mode.

In the asteroid belt with complex airspace conditions, using the automatic navigation mode of the ship-based optical brain would not be a problem for the "486" level optical brain of the Mine Master II.

People really can't do it.

The asteroid belt mining areas in the starry sky are not like the mining areas on the planet's ground, which have fixed locations.

It is always in motion. Just like the planets are always revolving around the star.

Whether it is relative to the outside or inside the asteroid belt, it is in a state of motion all the time.

So the so-called entrance No. 2 does not refer to a certain "entrance" in the asteroid belt.

It's because here, the mining company has built a relatively fixed micro advance base in the airspace close to the asteroid belt.

To help miners accurately locate and have certain logistical support.

Controlling the Mine Master Type 2, Wang Dong easily moved the spacecraft to the forward base at the second entrance.

This is a spindle-shaped steel structure, dark and solid.

There are regular lights flashing on it, like a heart-warming traveler's cabin in the dark wilderness.

It is a beacon for interstellar miners.

"How is it going."

After connecting to the local area network short-range communication with the forward base as the node, Wang Dong asked the observers in the forward base while turning on the detector on the Mine Master II to observe the asteroid belt not far away.

"The flow rate is normal, and the next window period should arrive within an hour. Brother Dong, welcome to your arrival."

A passionate and energetic female voice came.

Wang Dong was stunned for a moment and blinked.

"Liya, is it your turn to be on duty today?"

"It's the first week of this month, of course I'm on duty. Brother Dong, you even forgot which class the cutest little Liya is in. It's really sad."

The passionate female voice turned into a fake sadness but it was so artificial that you could hear it immediately.

It's her, it's her, she has blond hair, blue eyes, a big face, a height of 180 and a weight of 180, the patron saint of all interstellar miners - Xiao Liya.

Wang Dong couldn't help but hear the magical melody in his mind.

This is a warm and cheerful elder sister who can always infect others with her warmth.

In the dead universe, it is a kind of happiness to feel this kind of warmth.

After all, I haven't seen her for more than ten years, so it's normal to forget her schedule.

Now, having just returned from rebirth, Wang Dong said he didn't care if there was anything unusual about this performance.

Occasionally forgetting the scheduler's shift is no big deal.

Except for Liya, the enthusiastic eldest sister, there are not many staff on duty at the forward base that the miners can care about.

He laughed and ignored the elder sister's joke. Wang Dong chatted with her for a while, mainly about the recent trends in the asteroid belt and whether there were any abnormal changes.

Although the impression from the previous life was that the mining area in this asteroid belt was always relatively stable, one cannot be too cautious when it comes to matters related to one's own life and safety.

This is also the habit of all interstellar miners.

Life is your own. If you don’t even value it yourself, who do you expect to value it for you?

"That's right, Lao Shi also chose entrance number two this time, please pay attention."

Finally, Liya gave Wang Dong a small warning.

"Lao Shi?"

Wang Dong thought for a while, combined with the familiar surroundings, and finally pulled the long-standing memory out of his mind.

After traveling through time, with the help of Goldfinger, Wang Dong was able to select the one with the best ship condition among a group of mining ships every time.

Moreover, with the help of Golden Finger, Wang Dong can grasp the specific situation of his spacecraft in real time.

Then, when necessary, give full play to the ultimate performance of the spacecraft you pilot.

Therefore, Wang Dong, who has abundant "capital", can often go deep into the mining area and bring back more harvest than other miners.

Although Wang Dong concealed the existence of the golden finger well, it is inevitable that some people will be jealous when the final harvest is placed.

Lao Shi is one of them.
