The Star Knight - 18. Chapter Eighteen
Another magnetic storm has arrived. This is the fourth time he has spent on the Fiery Star. It has been nearly 130 cosmic days since he arrived here, almost as long as the winter of B-11.
Opal has learned a lot, those Reckett did not teach him, such as how to fight pain and mental pain, and the maintenance and use of weapons.
Plus the initial teamwork concept.
He returned to the mercenary school and started the third cycle of training. The indoor courses on the magnetic storm day were as usual, Mu Shu had already left, and Opal himself was left in the dormitory.
When I came to the classroom, I knew the teacher this time.
The guy looked as though he was not awake, his eyes were dilated, he yawned, his hair was dark, he was wearing a technician coat, he cut his ears, and said lazily, “Hello, my name is a wrench.”
Opal laughed out loud.
“What are you laughing at?” Wrench said: “Classmate, you are not serious.”
The recruits laughed endlessly, Opal said: “I wish you a long life, wrench!”
“Thank you.” Wrench said: “It seems you are doing well.”
“Next, I will be responsible for teaching you about spacecraft, machines and starry sky door technology.” Wrench said: “It also includes some □ installation and operation principles.”
“As a mercenary, mastering these is a must. I know you all learned some related physics knowledge in Interstellar Union School, but in these 30 days, what I want to teach you is not learned in school. Arrival stuff.”
“You don’t have to learn how to repair a spaceship manually, but you have to know how much it costs to repair a spaceship, otherwise you will be miserably trapped by the local repair shop when you make an emergency landing on some alien planet.”
Everyone laughed again, and the wrenches looked dull: “Once there was a mercenary group that was ruined by the stars. It is simply a shame to the mercenaries. Those blue-skinned people only know money. If you don’t know how. Using the navigation system to conduct self-checks, I don’t know if the reason for the spacecraft’s failure is to explode the atomic furnace or burn the fuse, just wait for them to swindle all the money. Use all the second-hand or third-hand materials they have on hand to help you renovate the entire spacecraft, by the way, take down your new parts and sell it for money.”
The wrench’s words caused a roar of laughter, and someone said, “Teacher, are you also a mercenary?”
Wrench: “Of course, I’m here to teach you only part-time. My job is the mercenary captain of the Twelve Nebulas. I am an A-level mercenary.”
The class was silent. In the history class and politics class we had learned before, everyone knew that the A-level mercenary had a very high rating. The highest mercenary rating is SS, and there is only one fierce star-the mercenary king Azeroth.
Next are six S-rank mercenaries. Mercenaries of this level no longer need to take on tasks every day. They are all recognized powerhouses in the universe. Four of them have left the God of War galaxy to explore the unknown universe. The two stayed with Azeroth, and if the God of War galaxy fell into war, all six S-rank mercenaries would return.
Next is Quan Liexing’s 112 A-level mercenaries. Most of these mercenaries are group leaders, leading their respective mercenary groups, ranging from a few to as many as a hundred, acting as the entire mercenary nation. Pillars.
Opal never expected that the wrench rating was so high, and there was a shock that a kind of person could not look like.
“Can spacecraft technicians be evaluated?” someone asked.
“Yeah.” Wrench said casually: “The king’s sword was designed by me. A good logistics is the soul of the entire mercenary group. Let’s start today’s teaching, or you want to hear something else. Gossip? I’m only in charge of class, and I will leave when it’s time. I don’t mind how much you have learned.”
No one interrupted immediately, the wrench opened the holographic projection, and lazily said: “There are three types of interstellar machinery, one: large cosmic navigation devices, including space military fortresses and manned spacecraft, battleships, etc., which are what we collectively call can carry Human, things that can go on a long voyage.”
The space fortress on the holographic projection slowly rotates, and the wrench said: “This is the super-large military fortress of the Empire in 19793. It is equivalent to an asteroid, equipped with 14,000 light shock cannons. The latest killing technology. There are only two in the entire Leo Galaxy Nebula. Remember to run away immediately when you encounter it. The largest interstellar warship produced by the Lie Star can only be shot by half the gun. The first half of the cannon abolishes its maneuverability, and the second half of the cannon directly Blow you into a fan.”
“This is the most powerful interplanetary cruise ship produced by the Republic at present, with a length of 11,437.3 kilometers. It is equipped with light shock cannons and gravity field cannons. It is said that the Republic is secretly researching new weapons… …” The wrench took out a lighter-like gadget from his pocket, opened the lid with a snap, and an electric arc drove the dozing students out.
There was another burst of laughter, and the wrench said: “Listen carefully.”
The sound of the wrench was like a lullaby, and Opal felt sleepy and complained.
After introducing the military fortress and battleship models, Wrench added: “The spaceships we use now cannot even be called’battleships’, because the real warships are used for group army battles, and the spaceships imported and modified by the Mercenary Country are original. The body is just a civilian airship, plus a little weapon to improve it to suit our mercenaries. After all, it’s impossible for everyone to shoot at other planets, or spaceships they don’t know… Supporting…”
“… As for how to choose a suitable spaceship? Second-hand spaceships range from 19 million to 33 million credit points. The projections above are the latest models in various countries, the cheapest. The number is also more than 70 million, you can still be a little bit obsessed with the image…”
Opal: “…”
Wrench: “The second major category of interplanetary machinery is unmanned machinery, which is divided into non-combat aircraft and combat aircraft. Non-combat aircraft is divided into civilian and commercial use. Combat aircraft are divided into police use, military use and private armed. Is it important to distinguish these cute gadgets during the mission? Please listen carefully and keep your spirits up. I don’t want to turn on the full power-over mode…”
Everyone immediately sat up straight, and the wrench continued: “If you don’t listen carefully to the next lesson, then I’m pretty sure you’ll easily get the wrong object when you perform the task, and you can’t tell which robot is threatening you or not. The end of the threat is to lose a lot of money, or die.”
“If you are facing a commercial robot and you don’t even look at it and give it a hammer, then it’s broken. Some wealthy people’s private robot servants drop a robotic arm, which is enough to make you lose money. Vomiting blood…”
Opal: “…”
Wrench: “If you are facing a combat aircraft and you still try to communicate with it, it can send you a shot back to the west. Note that the most significant point of non-fighters and fighter jets is energy fluctuations.”
“A combat machine, no matter how it pretends to be a harmless cute adult animal, it will gather energy before it starts attacking, and it needs a strong backup energy drive to cope with emergencies. The energy of non-fighter aircraft is completely stable. of.”
“When you encounter an unknown machine, you must immediately keep a distance and observe its battery and energy accumulation method. You can’t wait until it shoots at you to make sure. If you insist on this, when I don’t say anything.”
“This kind of detector is produced by Liexing.” The wrench picked up a small box and said: “It can detect the energy fluctuation of the other party and give an alarm in time. Qualified mercenaries can detect the dangers around at any time, but you recruits Obviously not, it is recommended that everyone buy one back. Each only costs two thousand four hundred Lie Star Coins. I only get four hundred…rebates.”
Everyone: “…”
“This part will be explained in detail in the next lecture. Now let’s talk about the third category, which is the manned fighter, commonly known as’Mecha’. I think you are very interested in this.”
Sure enough, Opal immediately raised his spirit.
“The cost of an advanced mecha is more than 550 million yuan. It can travel anywhere in the universe. The most cutting-edge technology of the Republic can even equip the mecha’God of Reverse Time’ with a jumper. Of course, it is impossible. Jump anytime and anywhere, and you must recharge between each jump.”
Opal remembered Reckett’s mecha, and made several jumps. At that time, he jumped from the Chiyan Galaxy to the Lion Galaxy, and then to the Milky Way, without blinking. The god against time is terrible.
“The cost of this machine is.” After the wrench introduced all the functions of the God of Reverse Time, he paused and said, “400 billion.”
The students were expressionless. This number has exceeded the cognitive limit of everyone. What is the concept of 400 billion? No one can tell, only that it is a four-character followed by many zeros. As for how many, everyone doesn’t care too much.
Quiet for a long time.
Opal nodded approvingly and said: “Sounds expensive.”
wrench:”……”
The wrench lost to them, switched the projection, and said: “This is the lion of the imperial emperor.”
A giant golden armor appeared on the projection, that alloy shell and wild curves, lion-like eyes, and a whip-like alloy tail. Just looking at the image, the momentum overwhelmed everyone.
“This is the king’s mecha.” The wrench switched images and introduced: “Product of the Republic, the name is “God of War”.”
“Can the mecha jump?” Opal asked.
“No, no.” Wrench said: “Most of them can’t. Future technology may be able to support them to make a leap. You may be able to see them in your lifetime, provided that you live long enough…Let’s take a look at the king’s mecha. ”
The golden metal robot has two cloud-like wing-shaped propellers behind it, holding a blue giant sword in its hand.
“Next is the mecha of Admiral Li Wei of the Republic, the Song of Time.” Wrench flipped the page quickly and said: “Very fast. There is also the mecha “Seablue Demon Ji” of Admiral Aquastar’Soft’. The two Sirius stars, King Shagath’s mech “Feng Hua”, and Imperial Marshal Rotman’s mech “Star River”, all of them are God of War fighters. You can manipulate them as you please.”
Opal thought that it was enough, can’t you think of anything other than mechas that want to / lewd others.
“Next is the next level of fighters.” Wrench said.
Wrench introduced hundreds of types of fighters, basically for the students to have fun with. The cheapest two-phone armor cost 80 million, and no one can afford it. It seems that Wrench is an enthusiast of mecha, who knows all kinds of models thoroughly.
“This kind of’Benlei’ is a domestic assembled model.” The wrench said blankly: “There are discounts, but it also costs 30 million credits. Let’s work hard, and the introduction is over.”
Opal has been waiting for the wrench to introduce the Taikoo fighters Reckett said, but unexpectedly it was over, and couldn’t help but raise his hand.
“Please speak.” Wrench said: “What’s the problem.”
Opal said: “Where is the Taikoo fighter?”
The wrench said inexplicably: “What is that?”
Opal said: “For example, dragon rays… or something.”
Wrench said: “I haven’t heard of it, new model?”
Opal: “…”
wrench:”……”
Opal no longer entangled with this problem, waved his hand, Wrench continued his course, and began to explain the basic structure of the spacecraft. The basic principles of spacecraft are similar, divided into power unit, control terminal, living area and combat part.
So much information is squeezed down, and Opal’s brain is about to explode. Trying to remember some, the students all dozed off.
When the class was over, Wrench only talked about the beginning, Opal asked him for the lesson plan, and transferred it to the E7 memory chip, planning to go back to review and preview.
Wrench looked at E7 and said, “Who made this little robot?”
Didi di…The E7 camera light flashes, clicks, and takes a picture of the wrench.
Opal said: “My mother did it. She used to be a technician.”
The wrench murmured: “The workmanship is very delicate, do you mind if I take it apart and take a look?”
Opal: “You promise to assemble it back.”
Wrench: “Oh, no, this is not guaranteed.”
Opal Road: “Mind very much!”
Wrench did not give up and said: “Science and technology need to be tried.”
Opal said: “No, this is the only thing my mother left for me.”
Wrench nodded helplessly, thought for a while, and said, “I’m currently researching a multi-dimensional computing technology on artificial intelligence and thirty-hexahedron. Can I try it?”
Opal said: “How…how do you try?”
Wrench said: “I want to use it to collect a variety of spacecraft structure diagrams. Here is a new and unused program… I promise not to destroy any of its structure. Just input it into its chip and say it later. Maybe you can use it too.”
Opal always feels a bit mysterious. When he was about to reject him, the wrench said: “With this core program, it can crack the security codes of many spaceships in a short time. Just imagine if you are locked on an enemy’s spacecraft, you The small robots can invade the other’s security system through any data line, query the structure of the entire spacecraft, and then crack it.”
Opal said: “Can you control the opponent’s spacecraft?”
Wrench regretfully said: “No, weapons, security and navigation are three independent systems, so I am studying this and need experimental data.”
Opal said: “You promise not to damage it.”
Wrench said: “Of course not, just connect a data cable…”
Opal opened the shell of the E7 chest, took out his portable suitcase with a wrench, and connected a data cable to the E7 body.
E7 beeped, and the overhead projector emitted a 36-hexahedron with dense computer symbols on each surface. The wrench said: “I also wrote an artificial self-rescue intelligent program. After the test, I want to make Ya Xerath is promoted all-star. If you are in danger… For example, if you are caught, this little robot will judge itself based on the content in the database and try to save you. Your little buddies are very good, and they have it. Must be smart. Your mother should be a senior mechanic.”
Opal said: “You are also very smart.”
Wrench said: “No, this is what someone taught me. So is the multidimensional computing technology.”
Opal: “Who?”
Wrench looked at the data on the thirty-hexahedron and said: “An unidentified researcher, it is said that it came from the center line of six black holes…”
Opal frowned and said, “In short, he knows a lot. One time when he was out on a mission, he found that the man was trapped. The Twelve Nebula Mercenary Corps saved him by the way, but he died before long. Now, I taught me something before I die. There is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. There are always things you can’t understand.”
Opal nodded slowly.
After waiting for a full half an hour, the thirty-six hexahedron was closed, the data transmission was over, the wrench put the terminal away, and said: “Okay, if you have activated its self-rescue function in the future, remember to bring it back and record the data for me, after all. It’s still being tested, but you’d better not bring it up to anyone, because it’s a rim ball… You know, the Interstellar Computer Association requires all scientists who study artificial intelligence to register. And I’m just an unreliable… hacker.”
Opal said: “I don’t quite understand, but I won’t say anything. As a thank you, I will invite you to lunch.”
Wrench said: “Thank you, I’m just trying to save some money. Lily is always crazy when shopping.”
