Chapter 1011 Lend Me Data
Time passed, and ten days had passed since the royalist fortress was discovered.
In the past ten days, the fortress changed its location two or three times to ensure that no traces would be left behind to be pursued by the rebels.
Judging from the meaning of the royalists, they probably shifted the focus of the fortress's construction work to mobility, giving priority to functions such as engines, jumps, and pulse flights to facilitate escape at any time.
Speaking of a celestial body not much smaller than the moon flying in pulses, this image is so impactful.
The refit progress of the Swan has not fallen behind. The main task is to refit the Swan, which does not require too many manpower.
Although the battleship was built by the Storm Kingdom, the Storm Kingdom is also a member of the United Star Group, and everyone uses a common interface.
Due to the highly modular design, workers only need to dismantle the armor plate, collect the devices inside, plug in the new ones, connect the cables and debug, and then it is ready to use. It is very simple and crude. It feels almost like putting together blocks.
What takes the most time is actually system integration. After all, they are products from different countries. It is very troublesome to put them together to make them work.
For example, the Third Brother Navy once had a bug where missiles could not be launched as long as the radar was activated. They are very green-skinned. I thought it could be used, so I just plugged it in. As a result, the system was incompatible.
But this trouble is the best to deal with. Don't forget, the machine soul of the Swan is Li Chengqi.
I don’t know if it has something to do with the newly acquired ‘magic machine’ godhead. All the newly installed equipment is really plug-and-play. It doesn’t even need to be debugged. You just install it.
The engineer in charge of the final assembly always said to Villania who came to observe and learn, "Your system in Kingdom of Storms is so compatible" and so on.
All in all, the Swan's renovation project went smoothly.
As for what Li Chengqi is doing these days...
"Can the sensitivity of the vector engine be adjusted again?"
"Still feeling a little floaty?"
"It's hard to say, it doesn't feel very comfortable."
He and Fang Lanyin were debugging '13-1'.
There is no doubt that the performance of this space fighter is very powerful, but previous actual combat also exposed too many problems.
Fang Lanyin first replaced it with an enlarged fuel tank and installed a magic compressor to further enhance energy storage. At the same time, he also installed back the previously removed speed limiter.
Removing the speed limiter is indeed equivalent to lifting the seal, but the problem is that the speed of this thing is too fast, so fast that even Li Chengqi has difficulty controlling it.
Moreover, while maintaining full power operation, the mechanical fatigue and wear of the '13-1' were also alarming. After returning, Fang Lanyin dismantled a lot of worn parts that needed to be replaced.
Now we need to find a degree and set the speed limiter to maintain high performance as much as possible while retaining operability and maintainability as much as possible. This requires time to test little by little.
In addition, since it does not have variable wings like the Manta, the sensitivity of the vector engine must be adjusted to suit Li Chengqi's operating habits as much as possible.
This is thanks to the help of professional mechanics around him. It is unlikely that ordinary pilots will have a dedicated ground crew on call at all times.
"Speaking of which, Brother Li, haven't you ever thought of giving it a name? It feels a bit pitiful to always call it 13-1."
"I've thought about it, what do you think of lionfish?"
"..."
When the light wings of this thing unfolded, the first thing Li Chengqi thought of was the lion fish. It looked very fierce with long teeth and five claws.
But it can also be seen that Li Chengqi really has no talent for naming...
Fang Lanyin decided to write this article off: "Brother Li, you can run the engine to maximum thrust for two laps, and I will record the data."
Through the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, you can see that the engine light in the dark background suddenly became much brighter. It suddenly left the field of vision and also out of the range of communication. Fang Lanyin took off her headphones and recorded items that needed improvement on her notebook.
In addition to fine-tuning, it also had to be modified in other aspects. Li Chengqi was very dissatisfied with the weak armament of this thing and needed to reserve a slot on the top to facilitate the installation of a backpack.
All modifications require parts from the fortress, which also requires reporting, which is very troublesome.
While thinking about this, footsteps came from behind. Fang Lanyin looked back and found that it was Hall who had recently joined Alyssa's command.
Seeing Fang Lanyin turn around, she stood at attention and saluted in a standard manner: "Mechanic Fang, I have something I want to discuss with you."
"No, no, no, I'm not a soldier, don't salute me."
Fang Lanyin looked uncomfortable, but she was still a little happy when she was called a mechanic.
"Sorry, I got used to it in the army."
Hall said a little embarrassedly: "Excuse me, are you doing a test flight with Li Chengqi?"
"Well, Brother Li is very picky. I debugged the Manta in the hangar for a long time before he was satisfied."
Hall didn't just stay in his room and sleep these two days. In addition to daily physical training, Hall also drove the Manta around the fortress.
Although Fang Lanyin recognized Fang Lanyin's skills, Hall was not satisfied with the situation of the Manta. The feel was too stiff. It was hard to imagine that Li Chengqi could counterattack Hall's Echo Squadron with this thing.
She became increasingly interested in this driver she had never met.
It's outrageous to say that Hall has joined Alyssa's staff, but has never said hello to Li Chengqi.
The purpose of Hall's joining was to secretly learn Li Chengqi's driving skills. Of course, he found this person right away.
But no matter who he asked, everyone was just looking at his appearance. Hall even went to ask the staff of the fortress to find out where Li Chengqi's room was so he could block the door, but was told that there was no such person at all. .
Of course Hall would not think that Li Chengqi was a machine spirit. Her first reaction was that this person was very low-key and very good at hiding himself. No wonder she had never heard of such an awesome pilot before.
So I got even more excited...
Fang Lanyin thought that Hall was here to ask about Li Chengqi again, and she was thinking about how to excuse him. Unexpectedly, Hall said after a few words of greeting:
"Can you, um, give me a copy of Li Chengqi's battle data?"
"What do you want the data for?"
Fang Lanyin does have this thing. After all, she has to rely on combat data to adjust the performance of '13-1'.
"I want to use a virtual machine for practice, preferably with recent combat data."
I don’t know why Fang Lanyin showed a look of pity like ‘Another unlucky child has been fooled’.
"I can't give you my data now. I'll make a copy later. If you're in a hurry, Villania's silver whirlwind contains Brother Li's data when he used the magic mecha. You can also try it."
"Thank you, I'll try it now."
Hall's expression became happy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he hurried away after thanking him.
Fang Lanyin could only pray silently, hoping that Hall would not be tortured too badly...
