The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

For the Earth Federation, the construction of a Titan-class mothership does not have much practical effect. The funds for building a Titan-class mothership are enough to build a dozen Titan-class warships, and this construction plan is completely pessimistic. , an additional product created by the overall political trend.

At that time, the Earth Federation was in conflict with several alien civilizations at the same time, and a wave of pessimism appeared within the Earth Federation, and this pessimism also directly affected senior government officials. , so it is necessary to leave a way out for the earth, so the decision to build a Titan-class mothership was passed.

The original plan was to build 100 Titan-class motherships. When the situation is not good, let these 100 motherships carry the fire of the earth, and disperse and flee. As long as one mothership survives, the earth will have the hope of revival .

However, after thirty-seven ships were built, the protracted war was finally peacefully resolved due to the intervention of the Supreme Council, and the thirty-odd Titan-class motherships did not play any role in the end.

Although it didn't play a role, the mothership couldn't be left vacant here, so the Earth Federation simply sold these more than 30 Titan-class motherships to private companies, and these private companies converted these huge motherships into interstellar ships. Excursion boats, discovery boats, and more.

However, even though they have been sold to private companies, the Earth Federation's supervision of these motherships still exists, and at least one-third of the operators of motherships are people appointed by the Earth Federation.

The so-called relics of prehistoric civilization that sank to the bottom of the Belém Ice Lake are actually part of the wreckage of a mothership, and judging from the text on various parts salvaged from the data, this part of the wreckage should belong to a military mothership The wreckage, because there are a large number of badges of the Earth Federation Starfleet on it, and all the Titan-class motherships in Leo's memory have never served in the army. Coupled with the number of the spaceship it saw just now, it can be sure that this The first mothership was built by the Earth Federation after his death.

As for the reason for the manufacture of the Titan-class mothership, there is only one reason, that is, the Earth Federation has encountered a life-and-death crisis, and pessimism has once again swept the Earth Federation government, so that this sealed escape plan has been taken out again.

"What kind of crisis is it?" Leo couldn't help but frowned when he thought of this.

According to the status and strength of the Earth Federation in the universe when Leo died, although there are countless crises that can cause the Earth Federation to perish, unless the Earth Federation seeks death by itself, those crises will not fall on the Earth Federation, a member of the quasi-universe supreme council. However, with the guts of the people of the Earth Federation, I am afraid that they will not do the kind of thing that seeks their own death.

If the reason for sending the Earth Federation to seek death on its own is that there is a crisis in the universe, this crisis makes the Earth Federation, which has begun to approach the advanced universe civilization, also start to feel fear, and has pessimistic thoughts, making them start to find a way out for themselves, Titan The super mothership is one of the back roads.

"What? Is there any problem with these materials?" Sylvia asked when she saw Leo's expression.

"No problem, it's just..." Leo shook his head, for a while he didn't know how to explain his guess to Sylvia. If he really wanted to explain it, he might not be able to finish it for three days and three nights, after all Explaining a Titan mothership to a Velenian is like explaining an airship to a bug.

Sylvia seemed to see Leo's danger, so she didn't ask any further questions. Then, as if changing the subject, she put a document in her hand in front of Leo and said, "Look at this document. , This document states that there is still a huge underground ruin in the Belen Ice Lake that cannot be excavated."

Hearing this, Leo opened the file and took a look, and found that there was a huge metal block in the center of the Belén Ice Lake mentioned in the file. The size of this metal block was equivalent to a Dai Lisa, and The entire metal block is the kind of metal block that does not decay or damage in prehistoric civilizations.

It is mentioned in the report that almost ten years have passed since the discovery of the metal block. Daliat has thought of various methods, hoping to open the metal block, even if it is to open a hole in the metal block, but the result is always It is disappointing that so far they have not been able to leave a trace on the metal block, so they also believe that this metal block must contain very important relics of prehistoric civilization.

Although the details of the metal block's luggage were not specifically mentioned in this report, Leo could tell from the general description that this metal block should be a living compartment in the mothership.

The Titan mothership is very huge, just like a small planet. At the beginning of construction, the mothership designers considered the repair problem when a certain part of the mothership failed, so they used the most primitive Physically modular design instead of using state-of-the-art particle generation components.

Because although the particle generation component can repair and replace damaged parts at an extremely fast speed, this component requires the use of a particle generator device, which is rare in number, and once the device is damaged, it cannot be replaced. Repair the spaceship by other means.

As for the spaceship components composed of physical modules, even if the manufacturing devices of some components are damaged due to some special reasons, the people on the mothership can still manufacture suitable components through other methods.

Therefore, except for the core mothership energy source, the entire component is composed of independent living cabins. The largest living cabin is probably larger than a Velen Continent, and the smallest living cabin should be the same as the shell. The lump of metal mentioned in Lunbing Lake is about the same as a city.

Because it is necessary to fly in the subspace and adapt to the destruction and attacks of various forces in the universe, the shell of each living cabin is as strong as the defensive armor of a space battleship. In this world, unless it evolves to an Omega-level advanced Apart from the gods of the living body, perhaps only a demigod like Lia Venistan could destroy this layer of armored shell.

However, because of the suppression of supernatural power in this world, Lia Venistan would probably need to spend a lot of power if she wanted to destroy this shell, which was equivalent to the power generated by the self-destruct of the Wizard Tower.

"It seems that we have something to do tomorrow." After reading the report, Leo smiled and said to Sylvia.

"Do you know how to open that piece of prehistoric civilization metal?" Sylvia said with a little surprise.

"You have to see it to know." Leo did not give an affirmative answer, and then he took out the thing he bought at the Reynolds Museum before, and said: "It happens to be possible to test this detector tomorrow. It can still be used normally.”

Sylvia opened the box and took out an eyeball-sized metal ball, looked at it, and said, "Didn't you say that this thing has no energy? Where do you go to find energy?"

"It can be replenished now." Leo showed the general-purpose recorder on his wrist, then took out the spz9319 multifunctional firearm, quickly took out the energy box on it, and then took the metal ball in Sylvia's hand and put it Arrived next to the energy box.

Afterwards, Leo opened the vacant panel on the universal recorder, opened the back door program, entered the bottom debugging module, activated the connector on the recorder, searched for the dynamic interface on the energy box, connected it, and entered the energy box. In the control system, activate the energy conduction device of the energy box and aim it at the spherical detector.

I saw a faint milky white light flickering from the energy box, and at the same time the metal ball was also flickering in response.

It was the first time Sylvia saw such a wonderful scene and was quickly attracted to it. While watching, she asked Leo about the details of this detector.

Leo didn't hide anything, and explained the function of this detector in detail.

The full name of this detector is actually the Edgar Allan Poe s7759p4 geographic detector, and its main function is to draw planetary topographic maps.

After the exploration spacecraft of the Earth Federation discovers a planet suitable for transformation or human habitation, thousands of geographical detectors of this type will be launched from the exploration spacecraft, entering the atmosphere of the planet, and following the undulating surface, The surface of the planet is scanned in longitude and latitude orbits, and the scanned data will be collected in the spacecraft database and automatically drawn into a map.

In addition, this detector can also be used by individuals. It can help users explore the terrain in some dangerous areas. Almost every explorer will be equipped with such a detector.

When Leo was still a cyborg, he also modified a detector of this type and transformed it into a detection tool for enemy fortifications, so he could easily use this tool.

Soon the flashes of the detector and the energy box subsided, and the energy indicator on the energy box showed that the energy had decreased by one-third. This surprised Leo a little, because in his memory the energy required by the detector It doesn't seem that much.

Leo cut off the practice of the universal recorder and the energy box, put them back into the gun magazine, and put them away again.

After that, he reconnected to the low-level control program of the detector through the recorder. Compared with the energy box with the military firewall installed, the civilian defense program of this detector is obviously much easier to deal with, and it can easily enter Go to the bottom control program, and modify a highest authority for yourself.

After activating the detector with the highest control authority, the detector immediately flew up from the table and suspended in the air, and the upper and lower ends of the sphere squeezed inward, turning into a disc shape.

Seeing the change of the detector, Sylvia's curiosity became more vigorous. She leaned forward and scanned the upper and lower ends of the suspended detector to make sure that there was nothing hanging or supporting it. Then she put the She pressed it on the detector and wanted to press it down, but found that the detector seemed to be fixed and did not move at all. Then she simply jumped onto the table, stepped on the detector with one foot, and then the whole body Standing on it, and doing so still didn't float the probe.

Leo on the side ignored Sylvia who was doing all kinds of curious attempts. He was looking through the recorded data on the detector through the general-purpose recorder at the moment. From these records, Leo quickly found the former Renault This instrument is used to survey the ice bridge and find the data of the correct passage.

Judging from the initial data, the Renault people knew how to use the basic terrain detection function of this detector, but when Leo read the back, he found that the user of the detector knew more functions, but the user's understanding of the function The method of use is gradually decreasing, and it seems that it should be because when the previous user died, the new user could not master the complete method of use.

These data made Leo interested in the previous users of this detector. He continued to read more previous data, wanting to see what the original user of the detector used it to detect, maybe he could find more The secrets of this world, but he was disappointed that these detection data stopped abruptly, and the data record has not even been pushed to the data of the first ice bridge detection.

This is not because the detector is damaged, but because the detector does not have an upper-end server to receive data, so that the detection data can only be stored inside the detector, and the detector itself is designed as a terminal device, and the storage chip reserved by itself is very large. Less, not enough to store a large amount of data, and eventually only the previous data can be overwritten.

Seeing this, Leo's eyes inevitably showed a hint of disappointment, but he quickly adjusted his mentality, didn't think about it any more, and continued to check the function status of the detector.

The basic functions of this detector are very intact. Judging from the functional details, this detector should be the original version that has not been used.

When the detector leaves the factory, it will set the most primitive basic module. This module can also correspond to the environment of most planets in the universe. However, in order to adapt to most environments, this module will expand the detector There are some restrictions on the function, so when the general detection spacecraft uses these detectors, they will try to adjust these detectors according to the actual environment, so that the effectiveness of the detectors can be maximized.

The current status of this detector undoubtedly shows that this detector has never been used, and the spacecraft where the detector is located should also be a new spacecraft.

At this time, Leo began to recall the information about the northern land of Velen in his memory. From the origin of the Renault people, it is not difficult to speculate that the detector should come from the northern land. Land, so he wanted to find out from some materials related to the North Land that he had seen before, whether there were any legends related to it.

However, since the Knight King of the Farland Empire, the Northland of Velen has been regarded as the private territory of the royal family by the Farland Empire, and most of the information about the ice field of the Northland of Velen has been blocked, so the information that Leo has now is not Many, most of them are fictions fabricated based on rumors. Among these rumors that are difficult to distinguish between true and false, even if there is content related to spaceships, its authenticity may be questionable.
