Chapter 838: Loyalty
In a spherical space that is half the size of a star system, countless huge starships shrouded in shadow are gradually recovering, and in the center of the fleet, an Eternal-class flagship that has obviously been specially modified and therefore appears to be extremely large and heavy. This is the starting point of this recovery. Its originally dim hull gradually glowed with a cold metallic luster after being charged. The energy lines under the armor layer became brighter as the battleship started. The lights everywhere on the battleship flowed from it like flowing water. The ship rows from bow to stern...
However, within a few seconds, the entire spacecraft was restored to life from a lifeless corpse, and with the activation of this special flagship, all the spacecraft also moved quickly. The light representing the vitality of the battleship spread rapidly from one point to all directions. In just the blink of an eye, this base, once nicknamed the morgue, was filled with the atmosphere of "new life".
Viewed from space, this three-dimensional spherical space base is like a crystal ball burning with fire from the inside. A small fire burst out from its center, and in the next moment, it quickly burst out of a dark area. The dark black crystal turned into a dazzling space pearl.
"At least one hundred and thirty-seven light control regulations were violated..."
Looking at the base activity scene coming back through the perspective probe well, Sandora stood in front of the holographic projection and murmured to herself.
We have left the Eternal-class battleship where Ping pl-15 is located, and now everyone is staying in the largest control tower in the center of the base. This place does not have the battleship dispatching center that is essential for a normal space base. This control tower can be regarded as a temporary battleship dispatching office.
"Understand, such a new way of existence takes some time to get used to."
I patted Sandora's shoulder and comforted her in a low voice.
"I hope they can get used to this." My sister's voice sounded low-spirited. "Although it is better than the original data situation, but...it has become like this from now on, which is equivalent to still not having a body. I really don't know if this will continue in the long run." For better or for worse.”
When my sister said this, the control tower's broadcast channel to the fleet was connected, so as soon as she finished speaking, the voice of Samar, one of the four governors of the revenge army (now the third governor), immediately came from the communicator. Passed over: "Mother, please don't have such worries.
We are Imperial people, and the meaning of our existence is to be loyal to the Queen and fight for the Empire. Now this way of existence can achieve this mission, so it doesn't matter whether we have a body or not. We should thank the Queen for making us valuable again~
For a Xiling apostle, losing value is a more terrible punishment than death. Fortunately, we are forgiven. "
"Semar's words made me silent." I knew what he said was somewhat reasonable, especially regarding the outlook on life of the Xiling apostles. They may really believe that as long as they can continue to be loyal to the empire, whether as a person or as a There is no difference in the identity of a ship, but the example of Gaia has proved that even the Xiling Apostle will not be happy after losing his body forever.
But now no one will continue to delve into this topic. Anyway, today should be a day worth celebrating: the Revenge Army has finally been reborn, and one hundred thousand soldiers have returned to the command of their queen. This is the most meaningful things.
Sandora stared at the scene of the fleet outside the porthole for a long time, where countless imperial warships were slowly adjusting their positions. That was the moment when the new revenge fleet was adapting to its new body. This huge legion appeared from the moment it appeared. There is a certain indescribable sense of oppression. This may be a supernatural phenomenon caused by the gathering of mutated souls. One hundred thousand Revenge Warriors and one hundred thousand powerful Templar warships have now been integrated into one. This huge fleet with souls will undoubtedly become the most elite force of the new empire. If we don’t count the special units and just talk about conventional ones, As for battleships, even the royal fleet of Sandora and I are probably no match for them. This is obvious: no weapon can be as powerful as it is after it has a soul, even the one with the highest control coefficient. The operation method of directly replacing the Xiling host with the battleship host will not be more effective than letting the battleship itself possess the spirit.
It's just that the price this elite fleet has to pay is too high.
When we returned from the Great Nebula, almost all of the fleets we dragged out from the enemy bases were transformed and became the carriers of the souls of the vengeful army. The remaining spare warships were only a thousand or so small spaceships. Now I feel very lucky that I was stingy at that time, even though not long ago I thought I was ruining my electricity bill by keeping these ships. Thinking about it now, fortunately we collected all the Templar spaceships at that time, otherwise it would be really a problem to carry out such a large-scale transformation. The only thing that is not very satisfactory is that the battleships captured from the Templar Guards are uneven. The number of motherships like the Eternal class is very small, because their mothership formations had already been destroyed when the Celestial System Fleet attacked the Great Nebula. They were all wiped out, and the remaining expedition-class and frontier-class main battleships were only a few thousand in number. Not to mention compared to the Revenge Fleet in its heyday, even the still immature main fleet of the New Empire was smaller than them. Much more. Most of the Templar spaceships parked here are small spacecrafts such as assault ships and interceptors. It's not that small spacecrafts are bad, but I think it's a bit wasteful to modify them in this way.
"The research center has established a scientific research base here. Next, I will organize manpower to imitate the autonomous systems of those temple spaceships." Tavel's quality projection stood behind me and Sandora, reporting on his work plan, "We must understand it thoroughly." Their principles may be a little more difficult. But if they are just imitations, it only takes a little time - in theory."
"When the time comes, we will transform a batch of imperial motherships into these autonomous spaceships, and then transfer the souls of the Revenge Army who are currently using small boats into them?"
I tilted my head slightly, showing an interested look, "Is this kind of soul transfer easy?"
"If it is a normal soul, there may be some damage when it is transferred to a new body, but this is not a problem at all for the soldiers of the Revenge Army. They are just some logical data now, as long as their bodies are stored The storage core is plugged into the new spacecraft, and they will quickly become familiar with it."
"Arjun, don't just think about putting all the Revenge Army soldiers on the giant ship." Sandora coughed lightly and reminded, "An appropriate amount of small battleships are indispensable. Besides, our current main fleet adds up. There are not 100,000 Eternal-class ships that can be modified..."
I scratched my hair: "It's not like you don't know my level..."
The newly formed fleet needs a name, but Sandora feels that there is no need to think about it at all. She still names it the Revenge Army - of course it can also be called the Revenge Fleet now. Although these battleships are not large in number, they will undoubtedly become one of the ace forces of the new empire. After all, the core of a thinking battleship is easy to manufacture, but a spaceship with soul is another matter. Here I would like to thank the Templar Guards who made me miserable back then. The modifications they made after evolving into autonomous spaceships are now cheaper for us. These spaceships are basically the products of reasonable optimization. They are usually better than the same level. The performance of the mass-produced imperial warships has been improved by about 30%, which is mainly reflected in its shield and energy system. This performance-specific enhancement may be due to the insufficient intelligence of the original Templar Guards. They couldn't use any sophisticated tactics, so they tried their best to pile up their own defense and power. This was why they often didn't have many blue bars. Anyway, their weapons were more than enough to torture all races in the universe at that time, and there was no need to strengthen them. Tavel feels that we can call this phenomenon "evolution", and the "evolution" phenomenon produced by the Templar Guard's autonomous spacecraft is still a hot topic in the research center. Okay, I'm going off topic again.
n Xiao 5, Samar and Lu En, the three most trusted generals under Sandora in the past were called the three governors. Their souls now reside on the three most powerful temple spaceships. This is The three specially-equipped Eternal Motherships, which are hundreds of kilometers long, are the most powerful warships we can find that can be used for modification. These three powerful spaceships were tested and showed a shocking jump in combat power: the shield system with a capacity increased by 50% can achieve a shield return of forever when fighting against a single-shot Galaxy main gun. Charging speed (truly worthy of the eternal name)
The power output is almost twice that of battleships of the same class. These are considered normal. What is even more exciting is the amazing handling performance they display. Even the most awesome driver cannot make the car respond as quickly as his own body. , unless he is a lame or he drives a Hornet, and the current situation of the Third Warlord is more towards the latter, how much does it cost for them to make every doorbell on this huge starship as smart and obedient as their own fingers? A finger!
... Qianqian shouldn't be allowed to watch during the test. This girl is too contagious, and now my brain is a little out of tune.
In short, the excellent qualities shown by these spaceships one after another make me feel that they must be divided into a separate system. At least those Eternal-class motherships need new names. This is in line with the consistent military habits of the Xiling Empire: possessing revolutionary technological leaps. equipment will receive a new series name.
I call them the Avenging Angel class.
The Avenging Angel-class super-heavy mothership, a heavily optimized mouth-class ship based on the Eternity-class, is larger than its prototype. It also has stronger firepower, stronger shields, more durable power, and The revolutionary operating methods of independent thinking have made them a landmark new generation of warships in the new empire. Although the harsh manufacturing conditions prevent these evolutionary warships from being mass-produced, the technological innovations they have brought to the regular fleet of the empire can. copy.
Tavel got a lot of inspiration from the way these new ships optimized themselves, and began to modify the existing conventional Eternal-class battleships in the empire. She summed it up very well in one sentence: Nothing is better than a ship itself. Our own situation, especially when this ship has replaced ao with Linghun, now we can discuss with these ships how to modify their shields.
According to this rule, two other warships have also received new series names. Taking the Expedition class as the prototype blueprint, the re-evolved Vengeance spacecraft is named "Catastrophe class". They maintain the original flexibility and endurance. While fighting, the movement speed is greatly enhanced. This is an improvement made after the revenge army spirit hun who controls these spaceships successfully discovered a new engine-driven process. Now these huge warships have gained the ability to come and go like the wind on the battlefield. Ability, it only takes six seconds and eight seconds to accelerate from zero to light speed in first gear~if they have gears.
The advanced model of the Frontier class is named "Hate Class", which is another resounding name rich in the style of the Revenge Army. Those reborn Revenge Army souls give themselves such names to express the uncontrollable revenge in their hearts. I hope they are eager to return to the battlefield and then fight to the death with the rebels who destroyed the Queen's territory. The name "Hate Class" fully reflects this militaristic thought. Now these round and naive starships have finally obtained super-range attack cannons: the original guards equipped their own Frontier-class spacecraft with super-standard energy systems, and then Tavel used pl-15's suggestions to After these energy systems were modified, they were connected to a set of hyperspace firepower output devices. This device allowed the Frontier-class warships, which were originally only used for defense, to have the ability to bomb the end of the universe. I think this bunker is so powerful. Only by bullying and bullying can such a group of war demons be cultivated.
The only regret is that the newly emerged "Hate-class" battleship still cannot solve the problem of its own movement speed. This is because its large number of shields will produce serious energy interference after being activated at the same time. This interference effect will be huge. Suppressing the common psionic thrusters on starships causes the power generated by the thrusters to be wasted in the space distortion phenomenon composed of dozens of layers of shields. Currently, this problem cannot be solved by increasing the engine output, and replacing them will be more Powerful class coordinate engine...
The cost is not worth it.
Tavel's next plan...in addition to continuing to research new technologies from these new spaceships, is to research more efficient soul uploading devices, because these revenge army souls are an extremely valuable asset to the new empire, and to Sandor This is especially true for La. If they sacrifice one on the battlefield, it is an irreparable loss for us. Since they have been integrated with the battleship, on the battlefield, once the battleship carrying them is destroyed, these souls cannot escape from the line of fire in the escape capsule. Therefore, the only thing that can improve the survival rate of these souls on the battlefield is the soul uploading technology. .
This technology should be easier to overcome, at least easier than asking Tavel to study how to give those revenge soldiers a new body. Therefore, the bespectacled girl seemed confident this time, and she made a solemn promise. It must be "before the next war begins, let the soldiers of the empire obtain more reliable soul preservation technology." I feel a little bit sad about this - why do the girls around me think about when the next war will break out all day long? Isn't it good to have a few days of leisure at home?
In the next few days, Sandora and I would often contact the Revenge Fleet that was being inspected in the base to learn about their changes under this new life form, but we ourselves also knew that we were incompetent in this regard. The level is really not as good as an ordinary Imperial technician, we just want to take a look. Shandora was chatting with her old subordinates about the past, while I came into contact with them with a kind of respect: For these imperial heroes who have left a trace of their savage spirit and will serve the queen until death, I am left All I have left is admiration.
In the past few days since returning home, a bunch of young and old girls at home have returned to the right track of life. Except for Shandora and I who are extremely busy, those daughters who have already achieved extraordinary adaptability quickly returned to their daily lives of daily necessities. In the state of Sauce and Vinegar Tea, my sister is still the well-deserved chief parent, responsible for taking care of the family down to Little Paopao. All the young girls including Xu Qianqian, Pandora and Huesca were doing nothing again. However, the blood and bullets in the previous month gave them great satisfaction. At least they didn't have to worry about it for a short time. They went to the Pentagon to plant bombs. The monsters of Gensokyo were the members who participated in this operation (did they really participate in the operation?) and remained active for the longest time. They stayed together for a long time after returning to Avalon. Wenwen's newspaper once evolved from a weekly newspaper to a daily newspaper, and then to a hourly newspaper. In the end, she wanted to publish a new newspaper every fifteen minutes to express her excited journalistic heart. So I taught her how to use Weibo. Yakumo Blue seems to have disappeared. I haven't seen her basking in the sun on the streets of Shadow City for several days. After asking Yakumo Purple, I learned that she is in retreat, and the purpose of the retreat is to let the down on her tail grow back as soon as possible. . Lin Xue has started to eat at home again in the past few days. She has now basically become a member of this big family. Although I still use "cooking" to describe this girl's daily behavior, it is undeniable that eating every day It has become my habit to wait for her to come over at the dinner table before we all eat together. In most cases, this will make Sandora scream hungry, so that I can only remind Lin for the safety of my own house. Try to come as early as possible after the snow, you said it will be fine.
The sun is shining brightly today, just as bright as it has been for the past week. Winter is almost coming to an end. Although I can't feel the warmth in the air yet, I still feel that spring is really coming soon, because Dingdang finally got over the jet lag and is in She started to become active during the day, and she jumped up and down on my head energetically, which gave me the illusion that this little thing had just ended hibernation: the goddess is no longer hibernating, isn't spring coming?
I sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows where I could fully enjoy the winter sunshine, watching the pedestrians outside wrapped in coats hurrying past. Behind me sat two people, one was Lili Na who was chatting incessantly, and the other was Fina who came to visit her home.
The latter is a rare visitor. I'm not saying that Fina is not close to our family, but this former queen girl rarely takes the initiative to go out. She is a typical person with incredibly low needs in life. Guy, basically as long as she doesn't starve to death or freeze to death, you can safely and boldly throw her in a small dark room and lock her up until the end of the world. This girl doesn't have any depression at all. I think Fina is weird. Her personality is in urgent need of improvement, so she usually invites her to play at home, trying to contaminate the joyful spirit of our family... Well, it has infected this indifferent mechanical queen. Now it seems that this kind of effort is not ineffective. , she actually took the initiative to visit today. ! .
