Chapter 144 Comes to Life
“After the jump, all subsystems of the entire ship are operating normally!”
“The Digger has been sighted and communications are being re-established, please wait.”
After seeing the destination planet again, Amber, who was sitting on the captain's seat of the Hermes, breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Lilith has trained two experienced shipboard controllers, the crews on the two ships are still too few.
If you encounter a pirate who has no foresight, although it is not impossible to win, it will definitely be a scene of panic and confusion.
"Captain, we found two elf warships approaching!"
The voice of the communications soldier rang out from the CIC below the captain's seat.
This former communications soldier of the Mobile Force has become a temporary tactical information coordination officer after undergoing emergency training.
“Don’t panic, this is the elf’s orbital patrol ship, and we have a pass issued by the Yuge family.”
As Amber spoke, she clicked a few times on the operating platform of the captain's seat.
A piece of information encrypted by the elf's encryption method was transmitted.
Soon, the two elf battleships that received the pass accelerated away, and at the same time played a series of light signals:
"Welcome to Peony Star."
< br>The Peony Flower Planet is the planet where Amber and the others' home base, the Tower of Babel, is located.
Elves love to use flowers, plants and trees when naming galaxies and planets.
To show that although they are obsessed with making money, they spend all day living in luxury.
But I still don’t forget my original intention to love nature.
“Captain, there is a message from the Nugget, asking us where to park the ship?”
"Tell them to stop at the Elven Spaceport where we set out."
Amber shook her head and moved her sore neck.
The docking of the two ships has now become a new problem.
First of all, neither ship can enter the atmosphere.
In other words, until now humans have not specifically developed ships that can break into the atmosphere.
With crazy stacking of materials to strengthen the external armor and internal structure, the tonnage of an ordinary frigate can reach 800,000 tons.
It is also common for destroyers and cruisers to weigh millions of tons, not to mention those giant battleships.
Until the anti-gravity control unit is developed and fully matured, there is no need to think about driving the battleship into the atmosphere for the time being.
So now human ships operating in outer space are generally parked in fixed areas in synchronous geostationary orbits.
Or pay more and park inside the spaceport.
But the problem is that these spaceports on Peony Star are all living biological airports built by elves.
From the appearance, it looks like a giant starfish covered with tentacles.
And inside are mainly various equipment used to maintain biological ships, including the 'repair culture tank'.
Although occasionally human ships will pass by or conduct transactions, normal human ship docking capabilities are also available.
But for people like Amber, who need a long-term ship maintenance base, the help they can provide is very little.
Maintenance and overhaul of shipboard weapons, detection and energy release of fusion reactors, replacement of superconducting battery stacks, etc.
These tasks, which require specialized ship operation workshops, cannot be completed in the Elf spaceport.
And Amber really couldn't imagine the scene where the biological tentacles used for maintenance penetrated into the interior of the ship through the inspection opening.
Just thinking about it makes me a little nervous.
“So, the top priority is to quickly find a way to find a professional port.” “Oh, this thing really can’t be done in a short while. It’s best to do it in the asteroid that will be mined next. , find a larger asteroid to carry out transformation."
While Amber was conceiving the port plan, more and more problems that needed to be solved suddenly emerged.
First of all, there is the issue of the Roma people.
In Amber's vision, the Roma who eventually pass the training will join the Marine Corps or the future orbital paratroopers.
Then it is inevitable to equip them with relevant exoskeletons, armor, and weapons.
You can't use the elves' psychic armor and psychic blaster.
Even if the logistics personnel don't cry, it won't be that easy to supply supplies if they fight within human territory in the future.
So the best way is for the entire company to use human-side weapons and equipment uniformly, which will make it easier to purchase and easier to maintain.
But in this case, it will involve the problem of re-customizing the exoskeleton.
After all, these male Roma people are all big and round, and they also have huge animal heads.
Even the strongest soldier in the Marine Corps can only be considered "thin" when it comes to male Roma men.
So at least the models currently on the market are definitely not able to satisfy these furballs.
Although it is easy to change the size without redesigning, there will definitely be an additional charge for this kind of private order.
“Tsk, we have to spend a lot of money here again.”
This kind of situation where we can only see money being spent but not the income being recorded makes Amber have to sigh. It is indeed a money-burning game.
And it’s still a bottomless pit when it burns.
Fortunately, Ellenita's family has a big business, and at the same time she is kind and kind and has provided a lot of funding, otherwise it would be really difficult to start this company.
Fortunately, the mining barge is now in place, and Lilith has also started to mine in different mineral trading centers in accordance with Amber's instructions.
After the price of minerals soars, a huge sum of money can still be made by backhand cashing here.
“It’s not easy to support a family with such a large group of people.”
Amber opened the star map and narrowed the area to a nearby unowned area that was about to border the Star Dragon Empire.
These places have not yet been explored by humans or elves, and there is only a simple temporary code on the star map.
But as a miner who made his fortune in mining and reselling in his previous life, Amber still knew several rich mining areas that everyone in the game knew.
Those asteroid belts that have been mined cleanly by the players' mining teams are still virgin lands waiting to be developed.
"The Flower Galaxy Cluster, I remember there is a no-no zone here."
Amber enlarged the star map little by little, adjusted it according to the coordinates in his memory, and finally found a star The inconspicuous asteroid belt in the picture.
"Very good, I already feel the Imperial Golden Dragon and the Psychic Point are waving to me~"
He rubbed his hands excitedly,
"Lilith, check if there are any differences A mining company has opened a mining area here? There should be no such remote location."
"Inquiry completed. A mining company has established a mining site here."
"Huh?"
Amber was stunned. He didn't expect that this asteroid belt rich in minerals was discovered by players in his previous life, but now someone would be the first to reach it.
"Master, we also found an interesting record. This mining company is looking for someone to help them eliminate pirates near the mining area~"
