Machine War: Infinite Frontier.
Chapter 535 Arrival
It was not just the Shuguang family that set sail this time. There was a small fleet consisting of more than a hundred ships. Of course, compared with the scale of ships in this world, it can only be considered small.
But among such a fleet, those that truly belong to Dawn are actually pitifully small. In fact, there is only one Valkyrie and a few transport ships specializing in logistics and cargo transportation, which add up to less than ten ships.
The other ships that set out together all belonged to two other companies that had invested in the Shuguang Military, and they were completely independent.
This time, Shuming only had these few ships, and the difference in sheer combat power and numbers was definitely too great. It was obvious that they were just there to join in the fun and test out new technologies, so the other two companies didn't find it surprising.
Valkyrie eventually had more than 3,700 members. Those who were introduced were completely trapped in the wolf's den without knowing it. Some people were placed in important positions, and it didn't matter. They would only get their own new life when the time was right.
However, there is no need to do so for the time being. After all, this time we go to the Alliance Star openly and there is no need to do anything shameful. Whether these people can do it or not, we can do it, and what we cannot do will not be done.
More than 3,000 people are just a drizzle compared to a super giant ship that is more than one kilometer long, three hundred meters wide and four hundred meters high. This ship is the flagship mothership of small fleets in TMC and the Free Federation. Even in the era of big cannons and big battleships, there is really no need for such a ship. It only has meaning to exist as the main flagship.
But thanks to the highly intelligent relationship, a few thousand people are enough to operate the ship normally. A warship requires precise cooperation of various professional personnel to truly bring out the full performance of the warship. Normally, a warship of the Valkyrie level can also carry a lot of giants and various combat forces on the ground, in the air and in the universe.
For example, the space fighter is not a transforming fighter. It is somewhat similar to the MA, just like the mass-produced Mobius in the SEED world. In fact, it is a similar thing. Maybe it is more technically sophisticated, but it is just that level. The normal number of people carrying can reach more than 400 and less than 600, but now there are less than fifty such space fighters in this battleship.
400 fighter jets require at least 1000 fighter pilots.
In addition, it can carry about a hundred Titans. Even if the pilots are calculated on a one-to-one basis, plus various logistical members, a ship of this size would require more than 10,000 people on shifts.
The number of marines, defense soldiers, and various miscellaneous members must be several times greater. If such a battleship is fully staffed and equipped, the threat it poses is still very great. Especially when a battleship of this level takes action, it will inevitably be followed by various other ships. No matter what planet it arrives at, it will be full of oppression.
But for Shuguang, many things are simply unnecessary. The high degree of technology and intelligence allow them to reduce the number of people to a minimum, and instead make effective use of more space. Although there are fewer people, the crew's quality of life is much higher.
And Xiao Yun was not planning to be the main force this time. Showing up was just a necessary thing. But this does not mean that the combat power on the Valkyrie can be underestimated. Even if there are not so many people and not carrying so many combat forces, the combat power of the Valkyrie is still worthy of everyone's fear.
Apart from the fifty space fighters that can be used for forward detection, the armed forces on the Valkyrie are all next-generation Titans, numbering more than two hundred. The relevant technical maintenance personnel have reached 1500 people, and the rest are people from various departments. There are usually less than twenty people on duty on the bridge, and even in wartime, there will be no more than fifty people.
Compared with normal warships of the same level, this flashy golden warship is more like a mobile palace, an extremely huge palace specially prepared for Xiao Yun's travel. In particular, the two floors where Xiao Yun lives occupy a large area. There is a huge starry sky swimming pool, an internal plant garden, an independent training ground, and an independent kitchen. It is a thorough luxury.
This time, in addition to the fixed personnel of the ship, Xiao Yun naturally also brought some teams from his own White Wolf Team, including the Sickle Team, the Knife Team, the Rose Team, the Macho Team and more than ten other teams. The showy white knight James did not have the chance to come out, and Steve did not come either because he was still in World No. 7.
But this time there are two new teams in the team, the Valkyrie team and the Fallen Angel team.
According to the plan, the Valkyrie Squad will belong to the Guard Squad, while the Fallen Angel Squad will belong to the Action Squad.
Xiao Yun directly placed the Valkyrie team beside him and Xiaodao as guards to protect his safety. Yu Jian Mingye and her team members were quite pleasing to the eye. Wearing combat uniforms that could bring out their body curves was at least pleasing to the eye. However, the Valkyrie team was the most special. Each of them carried a long sword as a personal weapon, which looked quite impressive.
CC also boarded the ship with Xiao Yun. CC had nothing to do on weekdays, and following Xiao Yun was her only thing.
Xiao Yun did not feel bored on the way to the Alliance Star. On the contrary, he enjoyed the whole process quite a lot. It can only be said that this warship was prepared very thoroughly for long-distance voyages from the very beginning, and many aspects were taken into consideration. What's more, with CC and Yu Jian Mingye accompanying him, it was definitely not boring.
When the ship broke away from hyperspace voyage, it had already arrived at the space domain of the Alliance Star, a place where he had come to cause trouble many times. Even the current situation was caused unintentionally by Xiao Yun.
When Xiao Yun stood in the bridge and looked at the Alliance Star in front of him, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Amazing! The Alliance Star was still yellow when I came here last time, but it has become blue and green in just a short time. These aliens can have a living even without going to war with this environmental transformation technology. Why not fight and make money together?"
Baki Lulu sat aside wearing the Shuguang uniform, her eyes moving back and forth between the big screen in front of her and the screen at her hand, and she never thought about answering Xiao Yun's questions.
However, there was a related person in the bridge who was arranged by Johnson. He was a lieutenant colonel who previously served as deputy captain in TMC and was now only a third mate. He was a thin middle-aged man and spoke behind Xiao Yun.
"Boss, they are aliens. The bloody lesson tells us that all aliens can only be enemies. There may be aliens that can communicate, but humans have never encountered such since they set foot in the universe. We can rob them of their things. We don't need to do business with them. We can do it ourselves."
Xiao Yun turned his head and glanced at the unfamiliar third officer. He was thin and had a deep face. There was a scar on his eye that extended from his eyebrow to under his eye. He admired the guy for saying such a thing and said, "You are right. We can take it and do it ourselves. What's your name?"
"Gary. Gary McCaughrean."
Xiao Yun raised his hand and pointed at Gary: "What's the matter with your eyes?"
Gary unconsciously reached out and touched his injured eye, and replied, "I was injured and blinded while fighting against aliens. Although I lost one eye and my limbs were broken, I was lucky enough to be rescued and sent to the rear for treatment. I must thank the treatment cabin produced by my boss's company for allowing me to recover, but this scar is the only thing I can keep and remind me all the time."
Xiao Yun turned his head and looked at the big screen in front of him again: "A lot of people died, right?"
Gary responded softly, "Yes, many of my superiors, my subordinates, and my comrades died there. There were less than 20 people alive on a ship with more than 2,000 people."
"This is a racial war." Xiao Yun said lightly, "A racial war can only end when one side is completely wiped out or both sides are almost completely wiped out. In a war, you can't expect anyone to have a change of heart. Instead of reminiscing about the past, you might as well think about how to survive to the end."
It’s not about victory but survival. After all, no matter what happens, only by surviving can you see victory.
"Report, there is a communication request, the communication party is the Alliance Star Command."
Baki Lulu stood up at this time: "Communication access."
A new window popped up on the big screen, and a young female communicator in a Federation Army uniform appeared in it: "This is the Alliance Star Command Management Center. I am controller Shanlin Hahn. Please let me know your identity and confirm the identification code."
Bakilulu: "This is the Valkyrie, the flagship of the Dawning Military. All ships belong to the Chimera Dawning Military. I am Captain Natal Bakilulu. My identity information should have been registered. The identification code is TNKL5554."
"The identification code has been confirmed, and the information registration has been completed. Subsequent detailed information will be sent to all warships soon. Please submit it as soon as possible. Finally, on behalf of the Federation Army, I thank you for your assistance. Next, please follow the instructions and go to the designated location to wait."
"clear."
The communication was interrupted. Baki Lulu sat back down and continued to look at the small screen in front of her. She just casually ordered: "Act according to the instructions and notify all ships to cooperate."
The fleet began to follow the instructions and head to the designated area to wait. The closer they got to the Alliance Star, the more they could see.
The Federation's huge fleet is staying in the outer orbit of the Alliance Star. There are many ships as big as the Valkyrie and even larger super aircraft carriers in the fleet. From time to time, there are transport planes whizzing back and forth between the ground and the universe, and it looks extremely busy.
During the time of submitting information and waiting for the next arrangements, Xiao Yun also calmed down and sat in the bridge waiting. However, compared with the serious or solemn expressions of others, Xiao Yun obviously felt out of place here.
In front of the table where he sat was a large table, on which there were many things, including food and drinks. Beside him were girls in combat uniforms and holding long swords, and CC in a maid outfit was serving him.
With Xiao Yun's presence, the atmosphere in the bridge has gradually become weird. Slowly, all the bridge crew members have been given their own afternoon tea. The huge bridge is not crowded with people standing side by side. Each bridge crew member can get an L-shaped workstation of his or her own, and the helmsman can get an H-shaped workstation. It can be said that they have a large independent space and are quite comfortable doing their work.
Anyway, we just have to wait, so Xiao Yun invites everyone to enjoy afternoon tea together.
Baki Lulu didn't say much, but if someone else was here she might have some opinions. However, she knew that Xiao Yun would never accept her opinions. After all, there was really nothing to do now, so she didn't say much. But if it were another time, even if she was facing Xiao Yun, she would still express her opinions harshly.
"Report, TMC requests communication access."
After getting permission, another communication screen came through, and a middle-aged man who looked about the same age as Johnson, with a big belly but a more serious expression, appeared in front of everyone.
Baki Lulu immediately noticed the other party's rank and said, "Hello, General."
The middle-aged general nodded and was about to say something, but he must have seen something on the communication screen that made his face freeze. He was stunned for a moment and seemed to be confirming something. After getting a response, he turned his head again to face this side.
"Shuguang Military, is your boss, Mr. Shizhen Xiaoyun here?"
Xiao Yun looked up: "Looking for me?"
Baki Lulu glanced at Xiao Yun not far away. From the perspective of this middle-aged general, he also saw Xiao Yun at this time. Xiao Yun seemed to be having afternoon tea. The table in front of him was full. For a moment, he didn't seem to know what to say.
However, Xiao Yun did not feel that way and smiled at the other party: "Hello, I am Shi Zhen Xiao Yun."
The middle-aged general frowned slightly, and his eyes seemed a little dull. No one knew what he was thinking. He said, "Welcome, Mr. Shi Zhen. I am here to contact you on behalf of Johnson. Dawn seems to have new technology that needs to be tested on the Alliance Star, so I will arrange a suitable place for you to use as your temporary base. Do you have any requirements?"
Xiao Yun turned his head and looked at Baki Lulu, who took over the topic: "If possible, we hope to be as close to the battle line as possible."
Xiao Yun nodded: "Well, try to be close to the front line but it's best not to be on the front battlefield. Testing new technologies requires actual combat but will encounter many problems. If an accident occurs and there is no time to debug and no support can be obtained in the first time, it is not a test but a suicide. Stability and safety are still the first priority."
"I understand. I will try my best to find a suitable place for you. I will not disturb Mr. Shi Zhen's afternoon tea time for now. When all the formalities are completed, Mr. Shi Zhen is welcome to visit me."
Xiao Yun smiled and nodded: "Thank you."
