My empire of stars

Chapter 557 The construction of the Glory is completed

On December 15, 2119 in the Imperial Calendar, the Empire's secret weapon, the Imperial Glory battleship, completed the installation of all equipment.

The completion of the Imperial Glory was not as grand as the completion of other battleships. The entire completion ceremony was conducted in secret, and only the top few people in the entire empire knew about it.

In the shipyard in the underground space of the Empire's Ring World, Li Mingze, Tianyi, Eva, and a number of senior officials from the Empire all gathered here.

Floating on the platform not far from them was the Imperial Glory equipped with dimensional armor. As the first ship of the Glory-class battleship, the captain of this battleship will be personally served by Li Mingze.

Amidst the applause of many officers, Li Mingze cut off the connection with this body, and his consciousness was connected to the avatar at the center of the Glory battleship.

Unlike ordinary battleships, there is no exit from the cockpit of the Glory. All crew members must descend into the dormant clones inside the battleship through consciousness.

In this way, except for dismantling the battleship as a whole, outsiders will not be able to enter the battleship at all, ensuring that this battleship will only belong to the empire.

At the same time, the lack of openings means that the safety of the battleship's control module is greatly improved. As long as the enemy does not completely destroy the battleship, the commander of this battleship will not be sacrificed.

Of course, in order to prevent the unexpected appearance of an unmanned battleship due to the sacrifice of all personnel, the battleship also specially arranged for a clone of Eva to take over the control of the battleship.

"The antimatter reactor is starting for the second time!" Along with Li Mingze's shout, in the reactor room next to the battleship control room, a reactor wrapped in silver metal discs began to emit red light.

"All systems in the battleship are powered on, and the anti-matter main gun begins self-test."

"The electromagnetic railgun started self-checking, the beam cannon started self-checking, and the thruster system navigation system all started self-checking." On the bridge of the Imperial Glory, four pilots, including Li Mingze, were lying in a protective cabin wrapped in liquid. Zhong uses his consciousness to control the operation of the battleship.

"The anti-matter reactor is normal and the energy output is stable. The anti-matter main gun is operating normally, the Star Tearer missile is normal, all weapon systems are normal, and the thruster and navigation system are normal!"

"The ship is starting to leave the port!"

The propeller at the rear of the Imperial Glory began to emit red flames, and the entire battleship slowly moved forward.

"The Imperial Glory's hyperspace engine is normal and the wormhole generator is normal. Do you want to go to the test area for detailed experiments?" the crew member asked Li Mingze.

"Integrate the empire's wormhole expressway network data and prepare to open the wormhole!" Li Mingze nodded slightly and ordered with consciousness.

The Imperial Glory suddenly stretched out four metal rods from both sides of the ship. Gray energy mist appeared from the metal rods and floated forward. After a while, a gray wormhole appeared in front of the battleship.

The battleship accelerated slightly and rushed into the wormhole channel, disappearing into the shipyard.

In a military base in a star system three hundred light years away from the imperial capital, the wormhole transfer station suddenly began to operate, spitting out a black-painted battleship.

"We have arrived at the test site and started to activate optical stealth and test the gravity engine." As soon as Li Mingze finished speaking, a layer of holographic images covered the entire battleship.

"Stop the thrusters, close the shields, and start the gravity engines."

The Imperial Glory's thrusters suddenly went out, and the armor plates that originally enclosed them suddenly folded inward, like inverted flower petals in full bloom, wrapping the thrusters tightly.

Then, the entire spacecraft suddenly accelerated and flew forward without propellers.

"The gravity engine is running well, we succeeded! The Imperial Glory is now ready for actual combat!" cheers from the crew came from the battleship's communication channel.

The so-called gravity engine is actually an engine specially designed for combat in the star system.

It can pull or push warships towards different defenses by amplifying the gravity of each planet in the star system.

The reason why this kind of engine is used is because the propeller that cannot be wrapped with dimensional armor during operation will become the lifeblood of the Glory. It may not be destroyed by thousands of shots in front of it, but once it is hit, Hit this life gate, and the entire battleship will be destroyed from the inside.

After using the gravity engine, you can turn off the ordinary thrusters and use dimensional armor to protect the life gate. The Glory of the Empire will become a turtle shell with no weaknesses!

"Tianyi, what is the output of this kind of warship in our empire?" Li Mingze connected to Tianyi's communication. He is now very satisfied with this Glory-class warship.

"Your Majesty, with our current national strength, if we do not build a Titan-class battleship, it will take three years to build one. If we also build a Titan-class battleship at the same time, it will take five years to build one."

"But the number built will increase as our population and colonies continue to grow."

"If we have enough resources, we can start building two or more ships at the same time." Tianyi thought for a while and gave the answer.

"Very good, we will gradually add this kind of battleship to the fleet. In future wars, the size of the battleship will no longer be the main factor that determines their combat effectiveness." Li Mingze knew that after the completion of the construction of the Imperial Glory, a new era has arrived. .

The size of battleships will no longer be larger and larger. On the contrary, small and sophisticated battleships will become the mainstream.

"Prepare to dock with the camouflaged hull. The existence of this battleship must not be exposed." Li Mingze controlled the Glory of the Empire and flew towards the dreadnought suspended beside it.

The top of the dreadnought seemed to have been split open, leaving a huge gap. This gap was where the Glory was parked.

With the assistance of the computer, the two battleships docked together perfectly, leaving no gaps and a natural fit.

A dreadnought with a slightly different appearance than other dreadnoughts appeared on the spot.

No one would have guessed what kind of terrifying secret weapon this dreadnought contained.

"The Glory will leave for the front line immediately. We are preparing to declare war on the Clem Empire in advance."

"Do you really think that I will abide by the agreement and wait for the war in two years? You are too naive." Li Mingze sneered and exited the body of the Glory.

The camouflaged Imperial Glory, escorted by thirty battleships, entered hyperspace and flew towards the front line of the war between the Empire and the Clem Empire.

In the following time, the empire's newly built warships also began to gather and rush towards the empire's front line.

However, this time Li Mingze learned his lesson. He did not send out all the warships, but left 30% of his troops to defend the homeland. He was worried that the Clem Empire would use the portal to launch a sneak attack again.

There will be two updates tomorrow and three updates will resume on Wednesday.
