Who still falls in love in the interstellar era?

Chapter 183 Set sail (two in one)

After deciding on the next step, it is time to wait for the spacecraft to complete loading.

Wang Chao didn't expect that it only takes twenty-four hours to modify a spaceship, but it takes twenty-six hours to load the spaceship with supplies, two hours more.

In other words, the man-hours required to produce things in this era are already less than the man-hours consumed in logistics.

Perhaps because of this, people are more inclined to make things by themselves than to buy things through logistics - anyway, everyone has LV5 printing capabilities, and as long as the resources are enough, in theory, anything can be printed by hand.

Wang Chao let everyone move freely and waited for the loading to be completed.

Twenty-six hours later, the cargo hold of the new Jackdaw was filled with biomass and various minerals, and it was ready to set sail.

Wang Chao sat on his throne and looked at the people on the bridge deck below.

He immediately noticed that there were few people around and asked, "Why didn't Nimiao come?"

Nimiao immediately responded in the communication: "Of course I am lying in the computer room!"

Liefeng: "I've sat on the cooling seat over there, and it was very comfortable."

The computer room has three seats with external cooling systems, and it looks like it can accommodate three hackers working together at the same time. However, the job of a hacker is expensive but not expensive. There is only so much computing power anyway, so it would be better to hand it all to one top hacker than to share it with three bastards.

Gale apparently ran over and lay down on the remaining cooling seat.

Wang Chao looked at Liefeng's chest: "Won't you get frostbite while lying on the cooling seat?"

Many parts of Gale's body are still human, and if he is directly immersed in the coolant of the cooling seat, he will most likely get frostbite.

Nimiao said angrily: "This guy has already been in the medical cabin. I asked the robot to remove her from the coolant. Fortunately, she was found early, but her chest was frozen."

Liefeng laughed loudly: "Don't worry, adoptive father, the broken part has been completely regenerated. By the way, the medical center on this ship only has a twelve-hour course of treatment. I thought I could be cured faster by changing the ship."

Helena: "Because all the medical cabins in this world are made according to the same initial design. If you want to treat it faster, you have to use a distributed rapid culture device to culture your necrotic parts separately, and then surgically replace them after they have grown." Go up.

"In that case, only the suture part needs to be grown with culture fluid. Generally, three hours of soaking in the medical cabin is enough. The whole process is estimated to be completed in less than six hours, which is faster than the medical cabin."

Wang Chao asked doubtfully: "Then why not use this method, but let people lie in the medical cabin for twelve hours?"

Helena shrugged: "Because the distributed rapid culture device may have problems, the rapid culture may grow crookedly, and it may not be able to produce organs that can be transplanted into humans. Therefore, the whole process requires professionally trained and experienced biology professors Supervision.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Liefeng shouted: "Then let's quickly bring a biology professor over!"

Wang Chao: "Shut up."

Nia said: "I have connected all the main observation equipment of the spacecraft to me. To be honest, the amount of data is a bit large. Could you please Miss Black Cat to allocate part of the computing power to help?"

Wang Chao turned to look at Nia and found that she was sitting on the protruding platform on the right side of the bridge deck, with a thick cable inserted behind her head. Just by looking at the diameter of the cable, you can tell how much information is transmitted.

So Wang Chao told Nimiao: "Give part of the computing power to the professor. We also need her to strengthen her investigation capabilities and control the gravity engine."

"...Understood." Nimiao's voice sounded a little unhappy. After all, for hackers, computing power is above all else. Abundant computing power can allow poor hackers to defeat experts.

Wang Chao didn't know how Nimiao allocated the computing power. He only knew that Nia sincerely thanked "Miss Black Cat" after receiving the computing power.

Helena looked at Nia and walked to other chairs: "Although I can't really help during the flight of the spacecraft, I still pretend to be the operator."

Hearing this, Liefeng quickly found a chair and sat down, pretending to be operating the spacecraft. However, he failed in less than a second. He turned around and asked Wang Chao, "How are you? Do you feel something?"

Wang Chao: "That's a bit. By the way, Lily, you can sit down too, there's no need to stand all the time."

Lily then found a chair on the bridge and sat down.

Liefeng: "You don't understand. She wants to sit next to the throne. Gaius and the others really don't know how to do things. Why do they only put a throne on the throne platform? The queen's position is not given!"

Lily argued: "I don't. Besides, I want to sing at any time. It's troublesome to sing while sitting on the throne platform. Now I can use the bridge deck as my stage at any time."

Just as Wang Chao was about to speak, he was preempted by Li Feng: "Wait a minute, I know what we are missing here! Foster father, we are missing some weird crew members here!"

"And a retro wooden steering wheel, right?" Wang Chao immediately understood what Liefeng was going to say.

This is actually the standard feature of Japanese animation in space science fiction in the 20s: strangely shaped crew members with incomplete facial features, a retro steering wheel, and an uncle captain wearing a classic military uniform with a stand-up collar.

Later, this retro setting gradually became less popular, but Hideaki Anno still played a tribute in "The Mystery of Sapphire" in the 90s.

Wang Chao himself likes this kind of retro setting, especially after a certain "Super Robot Wars" included the battleship and Captain Harlock from "Space Pirate Harlock".

In a game like "Super Robot Wars" that highlights robots, who wouldn't like a battleship that can fight better than robots?

Lily smiled: "I know, I know!"

Wang Chao: "In which "Galaxy Dead" have I played a similar role?"

Lily: "It's "Super Galaxy 999". I particularly like your appearance in it. I also like the crew members played by those special actors."

When Lily mentioned it, Wang Chao remembered everything he had done while filming this film. In fact, the crew members in that movie were not real-person special actors, but robots - and with that kind of figure, the only choice was for robots to play them.

Helena frowned: "Why do you feel like Lily is more familiar with your works than you?"

Lily: "I'm his number one fan!"

Helena looked at Wang Chao meaningfully: "So...are you considered a fan?"

Li Feng: "That's him. I don't know how many times Lily has slept with him before."

Wang Chao couldn't refute, because "Bounty Hunter Wang Chao" was indeed a scumbag who showed mercy everywhere and had slept with who knows how many of his fans.

Lily patted her chest: "I will be the first woman in his life who will never leave after coming!"

Liefeng: "I am the second one! But there seems to be something wrong with saying this to my adoptive father."

Nimiao: "Stop talking about this, bridge. The port has opened the outbound channel for us. We need to leave the port as soon as possible."

Nia glanced at the loudspeaker: "Miss Black Cat actually used the loudspeaker to complain. I always feel that she is a little unhappy?"

Helena: "Maybe she originally thought that her partner was the only woman in Wang Chao's life who would never leave her. But now this uniqueness has been broken, so she must be furious."

"Liar, shut up."

Helena spread her hands.

And Liefeng had already summoned a robot through the starlight network within the ship, and began to print the steering wheel on the bridge - yes, it was a very retro wooden steering wheel that seemed to have been removed from the era of sailing battleships.

Gale: "The steering wheel is easy to deal with, but what about the weird crew? We are all too beautiful, obviously not suitable."

At this time, Page suggested: "Several maintenance robots can be modified to play the role. With the printing capabilities of this ship, it only takes a few hours to transform the maintenance robots into the appearance that matches your description." Nimiao urged angrily: "Don't All of these are gone, and the entire port has stopped ships coming in and out to make way for us."

The new Jackdaw is a large ship. It is not as easy for such a large ship to leave the port as the previous 60-meter-class Jackdaw. In order to avoid accidents, the entire space station will suspend the entry and exit of ships to make way for the spacecraft.

Wang Chao: "Don't leave in a hurry. Have you checked the spacecraft to make sure no one is stealing it?"

The new Jackdaw is too big. There are more than a hundred external hatches on the ship. Who knows if anyone sneaked on board.

Nimiao: "I personally controlled the robot to patrol every external hatch and made sure that there was no sign of the hatch being opened. The goods that were shipped up were also carefully inspected and there were no problems at all.

"If you are worried, I will arrange intensive patrols for the maintenance robots on the spacecraft to ensure that all bad elements who sneak into the spacecraft will not be able to escape."

Wang Chao: "Okay, I'll leave it to you to arrange the patrol. Then let's set sail."

Liefeng stood in front of the newly printed steering wheel, put on a goggle to cover one eye, and acted as the helmsman: "Sail! Left rudder five!"

Helena frowned: "The way you shout is a bit strange. The content I found on the Internet said that this is the shouting method of the navy in the pre-aerospace era? Or is it the shouting method of the Japanese Navy?"

Wang Chao: "She and her former adoptive father are both fans of Japan."

Lily: "You don't have to give in too much."

Wang Chao: "I just like some of the works, not as high as they are."

Nia looked at Li Feng who was happily playing with the steering wheel and said, "Sometimes I really envy Li Feng's living conditions, so carefree."

Wang Chao: "That's not true. She doesn't even want superpowers. The 'Tao' has not changed anything at all on her."

Helena held her chin and said thoughtfully: "Are you satisfied with the current situation..."

While talking, Wang Chao controlled the spacecraft to disconnect from the space station, and used the attitude of the spacecraft to control the engine to push the spacecraft gradually away from the space station.

If it is too close to the space station, the main engine of the spacecraft may ignite and cause an accident.

After all, this is no longer the main engine of the previous small spacecraft. When the main engine of such a large ship sprays jets, the jet may directly disintegrate the small spacecraft or work boat that is involved. The people on top are trapped before they have time to realize what is happening. evaporation.

The huge New Jackdaw and the space station drifted away.

Wang Chao directly adjusted the image of the space station to the panoramic screen of the bridge. It seemed that the space station was above everyone's heads and gradually receding away.

In fact, this picture was captured by the optical equipment at the bottom of the spacecraft, because the space station is actually docked with the cargo bay at the bottom.

Liefeng looked up and saw the picture, and performed even more enthusiastically: "The main engine is ignited, full speed on both sides!"

Nia looked at Caesar Star with only the edge visible on the side: "It has been more than ten years since my parents sent me from the remote agricultural world to Caesar Star to study, and I finally have to say goodbye."

Helena: "Can't you bear it?"

"I can't bear to leave my students. I don't know if they can successfully complete their studies after being transferred to other professors, or whether they will be bullied by other professors..." Nia took off her glasses, lying on the console and looking sideways at Caesar Star , "We already have such a big boat, so what can I do if I bring my students with me? I can still continue to teach them."

Helena: "I also suggest bringing more people. If there are only six of us, psychological problems will easily occur on such a large spaceship."

Liefeng: "Haha, I don't have to worry. I'm already crazy. It doesn't matter if I have psychological problems!"

Wang Chao: "Are you quite proud?"

Gale: "Main engine ignition!"

Lily: "You just shouted this."

"Did you shout? Then start the gravity engine instead!"

When Nia heard what Gale said, she quickly sat up and put on her glasses, and checked the working status of the gravity engine through the thick data cable plugged into her back.

"Everything is normal with the improved gravity engine. The current engine efficiency is 22% higher than the ordinary engine."

For a ship as big as the New Jackdaw, the gravity engine is particularly important - without a gravity engine to resist the planet's gravity and reduce the overall inertia, the propellant consumption of a spacecraft of the mass of the New Jackdaw will increase sharply.

With the propellant currently carried by the Jackdaw, it may not be able to reach the high orbit of Caesar's planet without a gravity engine.

The new Jackdaw has to reach the high orbit of Caesar Star, or even reach the Lagrange point of the gravitational balance point, before it can start the gravity engine to tear apart real space and jump into hyperspace.

This is also the difference between a large ship like the new Jackdaw and the previous 60-meter-class Jackdaw.

The new Jackdaw cannot break into the atmosphere, and its jump must first be moved to a high orbit, close to the edge of the planet's gravity well.

The small Jackdaw can jump into hyperspace directly from the orbit of Apollodorus Space Station, and can also break into the atmosphere.

Yes, despite Gale's hard work in front of the fake steering wheel, the new Jackdaw can't jump yet.

It will take several days for the new Jackdaw to transfer to high orbit.

Theoretically speaking, this is indeed the case.

Nia: "The jump is ready."

Wang Chao was shocked. He was an experienced astronaut and knew that a spacecraft as large as the New Jackdaw had to be moved to a high planetary orbit first.

So he asked Nia: "Jump now? We are next to a planet, won't we be torn apart by the planet's gravity?"

Nia: "Probably not. The spaceships of the United Star Cluster have been jumping back and forth around Apollodorus in the past few days. I have accumulated a lot of observation records. I think with my current level of adjustment, I should be able to do it. Safe jump deep into a planet's gravity well."

Wang Chao said "Oh". He had almost forgotten that Nia's ability to observe gravitational waves could ignore all kinds of obstacles.

In other words, although she has been staying in her house, she has actually been observing the gravitational waves emitted by the spacecraft within tens of thousands of kilometers of the space station, and the changes in the gravitational waves when they jump.

Wang Chao: "I have forgotten that you are a little one."

"Eh?" Nia looked confused, "What Xiaotou?"

Lily: "I understand, I understand! I can answer this question! At this time, I have to say, 'Wow, this frame is so cool!'"

Nia: "????"

Wang Chao: "Don't worry about it. Since you can take off now, let's take off. The target is the unmanned galaxy we selected from a large number of star maps before! Let's go!"

　This volume is almost over here, and then Return to New Eden is a new volume.
