How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 365 Drive Area

The viewing of the logistics area has come to an end. There are various things in this area, but most of them exist to meet the needs of the mothership crew in various aspects, and the effect on the mothership itself can be said to be almost negligible. Therefore, Huo Gu lacked interest in the viewing of the logistics area, wishing to end it sooner, but he did not forget his purpose.

However, Huo Gu couldn't show disinterest on the surface, because that would be too purposeful and would arouse the vigilance of the Serene people. If it develops like that, the loss outweighs the gain.

After finally getting through the explanation of various things in the logistics area, Amanda, the tour guide, began to lead Hogu to visit the drive area of ​​the mothership, which is the area where the mothership's energy and propulsion engines are located.

"This is the driving area, which is the core part of the mothership's power. At the same time, for the convenience of powering the engine, this place will be directly connected to the mothership's propulsion engine."

Amanda introduces like this, and at the same time looks at the projection panel calmly to make sure that she is not wrong because of her nervousness.

Amanda is not a staff member in this area, so she doesn't know much about it. It is limited to knowing that there is a fusion reactor as the mothership's energy core in this place, and it is directly connected with the mothership's propulsion engine.

There is no way, the mothership is really too big, and it has condensed the efforts of countless Serin scholars. It is a bit of a dream to understand everything thoroughly.

Amanda's indistinct behavior seems a bit funny to others. If there is a third person in the speeding car at this time, it will probably be laughed out loud, but Hogu's attention is not on this point, his eyes are all focused on Inside the flying car, the projection of the entire area of ​​the drive zone.

The driving area is not for people to live and play like the logistics area, so it will not extend in all directions and criss-cross, and it is impossible to have a panoramic view of the driving area only at a certain point.

This is an annular space, and then those nuclear fusion reactors will be perpendicular to the inner wall of the annular space, so that the utilization of the space of the ship can be maximized.

In addition, the mothership engine is not far from the driving area in terms of design layout, and the reduction of the power supply distance also means that there is no need to worry too much about the damage of the engine power supply line when encountering an attack, but this will also lead to other problems. question.

"Then doesn't this part become the weak point of the mothership?" Hogu asked.

In general combat, the engine nozzle is the most conspicuous part on the battleship, because that place is too bright, and the high-energy pulse beam spews out from that part, like a drop of white paint dripping into ink.

Therefore, it is easy to be regarded as a fire-focused part, and the Serenes placed the engine part close to the driving area, which can easily affect the energy core in the driving area, and the energy output of a battleship is affected, and the result can be One can imagine.

Weapon systems need energy, life support systems need energy, engine propulsion needs energy, vibrating armor needs energy, radar observation needs energy...

If the energy source is completely destroyed, or if the power consumption is greater than the output power, the ship will be paralyzed and become a metal coffin floating in space.

So Huogu was very curious about the purpose of the Celine people's design.

"The weak point...it's true, but it's not entirely true, because we use thermonuclear fusion as energy, and use the water pressure created by artificial gravity to constrain the release of nuclear fusion energy, so this area is instead the entire ship. The strongest part of the mothership."

Amanda heard Hogu's question, thought for a while, and nodded in agreement. She can understand Hogu's thoughts, and an amateur like her can think of it. Naturally, it is impossible for the designer of the mothership of the empire to fail to think of it. Such a design layout has its reasons for existence.

"The main material of the driving zone is as strong as the keel. At the same time, because of the structural layout, if the kinetic energy attack that can break through the defense of the driving zone is strong, it is completely no problem to tear the entire mothership to pieces."

"So that's how it is."

Huo Gu nodded with some understanding, and at the same time he was secretly happy in his heart.

Regarding the different structural strengths of the mothership's regions, Huogu ignored the part, because it was unable to install the gravity fusion reactor of the Serenes on the living body, so it didn't know much about this part. comprehensive.

In order to be able to resist the strong water pressure enough to restrain nuclear fusion and the liquid disorder caused by nuclear fusion explosion, the structural strength must reach an astonishing level, otherwise it will inevitably face the fate of disintegration.

The structural strength of the driving area is extremely high. This is the information Huo Gu ignored when he checked the wreckage of the mothership. Although the mothership creature is a mothership class that plagiarized the Serenes, it also has this skeleton layout.

Understanding the role and not understanding the role are two different things, which is somewhat of a gain.

As a tour guide, Amanda continued her explanation, devoting herself to it, and didn't notice that Hogu was distracted.

"Although we can't feel any temperature, in fact, the driving area is kept at a temperature of 70 degrees for a long time. If you enter this place without wearing any protection, you will experience dehydration symptoms after a period of time, which is very dangerous."

"Under normal circumstances, people who work in this place will drive a special flying car and use the mechanical arm on the flying car to complete the work, and they will not be exposed to the outside world."

"You don't do heat insulation and cooling?" Hogu asked.

It is impossible not to do heat insulation and cooling treatment. When he first inspected the wreckage of the mothership, the nuclear fusion reactor was the focus of Huogu's attention. Naturally, he knew the design of the reactor and a complete set of systems.

But Huogu's current identity is Tan, and it is impossible for Tan to understand the design of the Serene's mothership class. If he understands, there is no need to board the mothership for a tour.

Hearing Hogu's question, Amanda shook her head and answered.

"No, we have done it. The temperature of 70 degrees is the residual temperature after the temperature insulation cooling treatment. If there is no treatment, the air can cook people."

"Isn't it dehydrated to become a mummy?"

Speaking of this, Amanda explained to Hogu seriously.

"Dehydration is an adverse symptom caused by a large loss of water in the organism due to the high temperature environment, but water loss takes time and a process."

"If the temperature is high enough, the water will be boiled before all the water is lost, so the organism will be cooked to death by its own body fluids first, and then the water in the corpse will gradually drain away."

"What a horrible place."

As he said that, Huo Gu turned his eyes to the scenery outside the speeding car. There was no colorfulness in the logistics area, and there was only a monotonous metallic color, because this place is not a place for people to play, and naturally there are no such fancy things.

It can't help but compare it to the mothership creatures. Although they have their own reasons, in terms of the utilization rate of the ship's space, Huogu and the others are better.

After watching for a while, Hogu asked.

"If... I said in case, this place is damaged, malfunctioned, etc., how do you take action to deal with it?"

"Shutdown for maintenance. Anyway, this drive zone is not the only one. If this drive zone is stopped, the other drive zones can also continue to supply energy to the mothership, providing a steady stream of power."

Amanda recalled it for a while, and answered it as a matter of course, but because her explanation was too brief, Hogu had to ask again.

"Stop the reactor? How can this be achieved? Can you still lower the temperature?"
