Machine War: Infinite Frontier

Kruzer's bad feeling came very suddenly, and even Xiao Yun had a premonition, so his premonition would only be stronger.

Xiao Yun's instinctive unwillingness to stay on the Alliance Star at this time was enough to explain the problem over there. Although Xiao Yun was so wild and sometimes liked adventure, he was definitely not a brainless person who liked to go into dangerous places.

Even if he was very concerned and had to make preparations, it could only mean that if an unexpected consequence occurred, it would be very serious. Considering the very likely situation, Cruzer felt that he also needed to go back to Fortress X to make arrangements in advance.

After Cruzer was sent to Fortress X, Xiao Yun left directly, and Cruzer went directly to the port area. In the port, he saw a huge battleship outside and many Haro controlled engineering robots surrounding the battleship. He called the person in charge and asked.

"Isn't this ship finished yet? When can it be used?"

"Lord Cruze, the ship is basically finished. There are only some finishing touches left. If it is needed, we will speed up the preparation as soon as possible."

Cruzer nodded slowly: "Hurry up, the faster the better."

This is a brand new battleship, which was built after the construction of Fortress X. It is a two-thirds MACORSS, which has a larger loading capacity than the quarter-level, and the hangar in the battleship form is completely of this size and length. On the left and right sides are two 800-meter-class detachable aircraft carriers, and the middle part is the main body of the battleship.

This battleship was not designed by Shuguang himself. In order to save time and put it into use in World 0 as soon as possible, it directly adopted the existing mature design plan of World 4, that is, the level of battleship that should appear in the triangle. This kind of battleship has been built and put into use in World 4, and the quarter-level battleship is too small, and the standard-level battleship is too large and difficult to build. Although Fortress X has no manpower pressure now, this level is just right if it wants to be put into use as soon as possible.

There are aircraft carrier-class hangars on both sides, which makes the carrying capacity of this ship quite terrifying. The standard MACROSS can carry thousands of transformable fighters. This one is not so exaggerated, but the carrying capacity is also more than one thousand. It can be said that Dawn only modified the hangar parts of the two aircraft carriers, so that the aircraft carriers can carry transformable fighters and MS at the same time, and mainly transformable fighters.

It has been a long time since the construction of this ship, at least more than a year. After all, the time since the construction of Fortress X has been more than that, but the construction process of this ship is also a process of laying the foundation, and it is also a process of gradually improving the internal dock of Fortress X. Otherwise, it would not take so long.

So far, Fortress X has only completed the manufacture of this ship, and next here is only the ability to build three new ships at the same time, but Fortress X is still expanding. As a base that is developing and has not yet been completed, this will also be their real base camp in World 0 in the future. The current situation is not enough to serve as a real base camp. Now it can only be regarded as a base and a transit center at most.

From the establishment to the operation of the entire X Fortress, a total of more than 200,000 people have been invested. These people are definitely not seen in normal areas. Xiao Yun is unlikely to wander around the construction area. The departments in operation in the fortress are just a few core ones. The first is the research area, the second is the transit area, the third is the living area, the fourth is the industrial area, and the last is the port dock.

So far, the main structure of the X Fortress has been completed. The interior of the huge meteorite is still being hollowed out for construction, and the construction of the second meteorite has also been started. According to the development plan, a total of four to five large meteorites will be developed, serving as military bases, ship and body manufacturing factories, a large colonial satellite and a hive.

All plans will be completed within five years from the beginning of formulation, and the X Fortress is the core that supports all these constructions. It is a kind of engineering method that can be regarded as sharpening the knife before cutting wood. With the existing infrastructure of the X Fortress, the construction of all subsequent projects can be better completed. The five-year plan is the accumulation of the second step. When the first five-year plan is completed, the subsequent development will show a burst of diffusion, and the construction speed will only get faster and faster.

As for the population and manpower, there is really no shortage of it. Most of the millions of people in Galaxy are basically doing nothing, and there are a lot of technical personnel. After all, Galaxy is originally a research-oriented fleet, and all kinds of talents can be found in it. If it weren't for the capture of Galaxy, the progress of various works in X Fortress would not be so fast if only Haro and the pseudo-transformers were relied on.

Now the first five-year plan has been implemented for more than a year. With the resources from several worlds and the resources from the meteorite belt, everything is progressing quite smoothly.

After Cruze confirmed the situation of the ship in detail, he began to confirm the combat troops. Now X Fortress already has a very large number of transformable fighters, MS and the latest next-generation Titans, but they are very different in appearance from the machines used publicly by Xiao Yun and others. They are versions that use solar furnaces, but the solar furnaces are still equipped in a mounted manner, just like the 00 Gundam.

Organoids have combat power and there is no shortage of pilots who can operate them. It is easy to pull up a combat formation of several thousand people. However, compared with the Federation Army, the number is really nothing. But in terms of combat capability, the performance of this formation is really not that simple.

All solar furnace bodies, even mass-produced solar furnaces, can also carry out dual furnace synchronization. Mass-produced solar furnaces require electricity as the main reaction method. Each body is equipped with nuclear energy. How can the Federation compare with this performance?

It can only be said that the number of real super ace-level pilots is indeed a little less, but the overall quality is still very high. If all are transferred to Frontier, it will definitely make Frontier the fleet with the most powerful combat capability in World 4.

Unknowingly, the current Dawn has indeed become very powerful, but compared with the larger world, the current Dawn does have many shortcomings, but as time goes by, it will inevitably become an armed force that surpasses TMC, but it is a bit shady.

Therefore, the necessity of the existence of Dawn is very important. They need an armed fleet that can see the light to do more things under normal circumstances.

Now it seems that there is nothing to do, but there are still many things to do step by step. Gina still has a heavy burden on his shoulders. If there were not so many capable people around him, how could Xiao Yun live so easily? His ease was all exchanged for the efforts of others, just like Luo. I don’t say that he works overtime every day, but he really can’t accompany Xiao Yun around like before. At least there won’t be too many such opportunities in the next few years.

………………

On the Union Star, after the Valkyrie entered the universe, it was arranged to enter the port of the space base. This base did not exist before, but it was a large base that appeared after the Union Star had an accident. However, it does not look like a newly built base. It is huge and has been there for some years. It is probably moved from somewhere.

However, the facilities of the base are very complete, and it also has two inner and outer space ports. The outer space port is very simple, but there are some plank roads connecting fixed approaching ships, and the inner space port is a berthing port for small ships. This base is really big, and it feels bigger than the Tianren and X Fortress.

Later, Xiao Yun learned that this base belonged to TMC and was a very important space fortress of TMC on the border, but now it has been hung with the logo of the Federation.

Even if the ownership belongs to TMC, it has become a place controlled by the Federation, and the research institute mentioned by the ground commander is in this base.

In addition to being a base fortress, this place is also a huge activity center with a lot of leisure and relaxation facilities. Places like bars are actually available in many warships, but staying in the same place for a long time can easily cause mental problems for some crew members, so there is a part of the base dedicated to the crew's rest.

Previously, only crew members from the Federation Army, TMC and the Free Alliance were allowed to enter and leave for rest, but after slowly opening up, they also began to accept crew members from other parties to come and relax, but they need to make an appointment one week in advance.

After the Valkyrie docked with the base, all members of the ship were given the right to enter and exit freely. Privileges are everywhere. Anyway, Xiao Yun can go to most places in this base smoothly.

As soon as the docking was completed, Xiao Yun was invited to attend a meeting.

As soon as he walked out of the docking door of the battleship, he saw the federal army personnel who were welcoming him outside. After inviting Xiao Yun and his party to get on the car, they drove towards the central area of ​​the base.

Soon Xiao Yun and Baki Lulu were sent to a not-so-large conference room. There were not many people in it, but they were all real senior personnel here. Even the figure of the land commander appeared on the big screen in the conference room. At the same time, Xiao Yun also saw Dr. Kula, who had previously conducted video communication.

A general in his fifties wearing a black federal army uniform with three golden stars on his shoulders took the initiative to extend his hand to Xiao Yun after seeing Xiao Yun.

"Missy Hunter, commander of the border branch of the Federal Space Army, welcome to your arrival, President Shi Zhen."

This is a big shot, equivalent to the highest person in charge of the Federal Army at the border, the real big boss, the existence that TMC and the Freedom Alliance have to look up to.

I didn't expect such a person to take the initiative to extend his hand to Xiao Yun. This attitude really makes people feel that he is highly valued.

Xiao Yun did not let himself go in this situation, and quickly shook hands with the other party: "Hello, General Hunter, I am Shi Zhen Xiao Yun, the president of Shuguang."

"Young people are very good. It is very rare to lay such a foundation at such a young age. President Shi Zhen is definitely a role model for young people." General Hunter smiled gently at Xiao Yun and raised his hand: "I like excellent young people very much. Being with excellent young people like you will also make me feel young. Please come in."

"Thank you."

General Hunter sat in the main seat, but also arranged Xiao Yun to sit next to him.

There were not many people in the entire conference room. Including Xiao Yun and Baki Lulu who came in with him, there were only seven or eight people, including Dr. Kula and his assistant.

After sitting down, General Hunter spoke directly: "We invited President Shi Zhen to come here because we want to confirm the situation on the Alliance Star. I have heard everything from our ground commander General Zager, but I still hope to listen to your analysis in person."

Xiao Yun nodded, took a small computer from Baki Lulu and placed it on the table. He lightly tapped a screen and it was projected by the small computer.

"This is some data that our Shuguang research department has studied based on the cultivation of the branches of the World Tree. First of all, it can be confirmed that the World Tree has a very high growth ability and activity. Since arriving at the Alliance Star, we Shuguang immediately obtained relevant samples and started simple research. However, due to equipment limitations, we can only carry out some basic preliminary research projects on our ship. At the beginning, the specific data analysis and deduction research were carried out by the Chimera Research Institute until we later transferred the research to Chimera."

General Hunter nodded, and of course he knew that someone from Shuguang came to the Alliance Star some time ago to place a design order and then left.

"It didn't take long for the branches to grow from arms to arms, and then grow to a tree that needs two hands to embrace. Although this is also related to the fact that we found the most suitable environment for the growth of the World Tree, we also discovered a lot of things in this process."

"For example, we studied the genetic samples of the World Tree and determined that it has some genetic characteristics of plants, animals and microorganisms. I don't understand these, but Dr. Kula should be able to understand them. I will leave this information to Dr. Kula so that he can confirm it later."

"Finally, we Shuguang started from the genetic cells, removed some plant genes and ripened the remaining parts, and finally analyzed them through some technical means to get a new result."

The picture changed to a picture of insect creatures that Xiao Yun had seen before, which was very similar to the plant.

"We have been studying for too short a time and can only do this much. This is just an experiment and deduction, but the results are already very clear. The gene cells are all extracted from the branches of the World Tree and cultivated without any other influence. The final result is such a deduction, an insect creature very similar to zoophytes."

"And judging from the current situation, there must be errors in our experiments and deductions, but there is no problem in the general direction. According to the existing results, it can be shown that zoophytes and World Trees are the same thing. There is a high probability that zoophytes are directly produced from World Trees rather than completely natural reproduction." (End of this chapter)
