Interstellar Industrial Age

The Dragon Nest Space Factory, the entire huge factory is very busy, the rise of the asteroid belt mining industry has completely sold out the expensive spacecraft, and the orders have been placed in a few years.

Several trillions of Qinglong-class spaceships now have a feeling of Chinese cabbage, especially after the stocks in the space technology sector have skyrocketed, the people are keen to invest in the asteroid belt mining industry, and the spaceships are not enough to sell.

The second type of Dragon Nest space factory has also started, but the Milong-class spacecraft is built, but many people still prefer the Qinglong-class spacecraft.

This Qinglong-class spacecraft is indeed expensive. People in China need 3 trillion Chinese dollars to buy it, and foreigners even need 5 trillion Chinese dollars. To be honest, it is a real top-level spaceship at such an expensive price. power.

But the Qinglong-class spacecraft is very valuable. Its thrust is strong, and it can mine hundreds of millions of tons of asteroids at one time. The speed is fast enough, and it can go to the asteroid belt several times a year. If you are lucky, it will take about a year. time to recover the cost.

In addition, the Qinglong-class spacecraft is very safe and reliable, which is not comparable to those foreign spacecraft that use rocket power.

Since the rise of the asteroid mining industry, the spacecraft built by foreigners have also been put into use one after another. Although this kind of spacecraft using rockets as power can also reach the asteroid belt.

However, it has low thrust, fast fuel consumption, poor flexibility, and more importantly, very low safety. Several major space accidents have occurred one after another, and several spacecraft heading to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids have completely failed because of the rocket power system. Buried in the asteroid belt.

Therefore, everyone still loves the products of Galaxy Technology Group. Expensive means heartache when you buy them, but it still feels very fragrant when you use them.

The Dragon Nest Space Factory has several long shipbuilding docks, each of which is parked with several Qinglong-class spacecraft under construction.

Some Qinglong-class spaceships are almost completed and put into use, and some are still skeletons. Engineers are like ants, busy inside and outside the huge spaceship with the help of robotic arms.

The sixth shipyard is empty, without any spaceships. Scientists and engineers are rebuilding the dock to build the first dragon-class spacecraft, the Han Wu Dadi.

The Hanwu Emperor is designed to be more than 10 kilometers long, more than 3 kilometers high, and more than 5 kilometers wide. This is definitely the largest spacecraft in history, more than 10 times larger than the Qinglong-class spacecraft.

This dock could have built several Qinglong-class spaceships at the same time.

It feels a bit reluctant to use it to build a dragon-class spacecraft now, and engineers need to remodel the shipyard.

In the control and command center of the sixth shipyard, Qin Yi came to the Dragon Nest Space Factory again, because today is the day when the Han Wu Dadi spacecraft officially started construction and laid the keel.

On the huge display in the command center, the design drawing of the Hanwu Emperor spacecraft is very domineering, and people can't help but sigh at its huge size.

This is a real behemoth, and at the same time, it looks very sci-fi, like a powerful spaceship sailing an interstellar spaceship in a sci-fi movie.

"This design is good, and it still retains the function of the weapon system. Although it is a spaceship now, it can also be a spaceship when necessary, but the shell is designed a little too thin, and the skin is crispy. Not a real giant ship cannon."

"However, the real space battleship does not rely on thick skin to resist strikes. What it really depends on is a powerful energy shield and magnetic field shield. No matter how thick the steel is, its anti-strike ability will not be too strong. ."

The detailed design data and design structure of the 'Han Wu Dadi' spacecraft appeared in Qin Yi's mind, and Qin Yi personally participated in this design.

For the first dragon-class spacecraft, Qin Yi's requirements are not too high, but he just made a suggestion, that is, the functions of the weapon system must be retained, and the functions of the weapon system must be designed into it.

Spaceships are used in this interstellar universe, and there is no weapon system. What's more, this dragon-class spaceship is expensive and time-consuming. Don't even think about building it without two or three years.

This second Dragon-class spacecraft will not be built until the Year of the Monkey, the Horse and the Moon, so the design of the 'Han Wu Dadi' spacecraft should be as comprehensive as possible and long-term in mind.

There is no weapon system now because there is no application to the above, and the Galaxy Technology Group has not developed a powerful weapon that is really used for interstellar space warfare, so the function of the weapon system is retained, and it can be added soon if it is needed in the future. .

"It's started~"

Just as Qin Yi was contemplating, in the void outside, numerous mechanical arms dragged out long keels, ready to start laying the keels.

Each keel is very long and thick, because it is made of obsidian material, and there is a hint of golden light on these keels.

The keel of the 'Hanwu Emperor' spacecraft is completely different from the keel of the Qinglong-class spacecraft. The keel of the Qinglong-class spacecraft also refers to the experience of building large ships on the earth.

The keel of the 'Han Wu Dadi' spacecraft is laid with more triangular structures, because the triangular structure is the most stable structure and has the strongest weighing ability. Coupled with the strong obsidian material, it is enough to ensure the spacecraft Has a strong skeleton.

The robotic arms began to get busy, and each keel was a special keel with its own unique number, order and position of laying.

Scientists and engineers ride on the robotic arm, and when the robotic arm is stretched, they go into space and come to the forefront of keel laying.

The first keel is also the most important one. It is 10 kilometers long, 50 meters wide, and 30 meters high. One end is curved in an arc.

Under the handling of the robotic arm, it is fixed on the sixth dock, which is the main keel, and the other keels are slowly assembled on the basis of this keel.

Each keel has a specially reserved card slot on it. The reserved card slot has extremely high requirements and must reach the level of a few threads. It is also a product of high-precision processing. When combined, there must be no A slight gap is like a whole, and only in this way can it have a strong bearing capacity.

Otherwise, the keel is still swaying, and if the engine is started, the entire spacecraft will be completely torn into pieces.

The work of laying the keel is relatively simple, because it is just assembly, the real difficulty is the initial design, the selection of the keel material, and the smelting and processing.

These tasks are done well in the early stage, and it is much easier and simpler to set up. It only needs to be assembled step by step in order according to the design drawings.

Two months later, Qin Yi came to the sixth dock again, and the keel of the 'Hanwu Emperor' spacecraft has basically been laid.

Looking from the control and command center, this keel has a golden glittering feeling, it seems to be really the bones of a giant dragon, exuding charming colors.

"It's really spectacular, such a huge keel, the momentum alone is very compelling."

Next to Qin Yi, Lin Ye, the CEO of Galaxy Technology Group, who followed Qin Yi, saw such a huge keel for the first time. At this time, a Qinglong-class spacecraft happened to be transporting parts.

Next to this Qinglong-class spacecraft, there is an anti-gravity spacecraft parked, which is also transporting materials.

Compared with the Qinglong-class spacecraft, this anti-gravity spacecraft is very small, like a cat and a pig. Compared with the keel of the 'Hanwu Emperor' spacecraft, this Qinglong-class spacecraft is very small, as if The contrast between a piglet and an African elephant is mediocre.

The three kinds of spacecraft are compared together. This kind of visual huge contrast and impact can make people truly feel the hugeness of the Dragon-class spacecraft.

"This is just a keel. When the 'Hanwu Emperor' spacecraft is truly completed, it will be even more ferocious, like a real dragon soaring between space and interstellar."

Qin Yi looked at the huge keel and said with a smile.
