The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons

Chapter 40 Environmental Improvement Technology (for subscription, monthly pass, reward)

This satellite should have been bombarded by a T-slot doomsday weapon. The satellite with a diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers was directly blown to pieces. The huge crust cracked like a cracked eggshell, and hot star core material spewed out, surrounding A cooling belt of small meteorites formed in the orbit of the planet.

"What a brutal war!"

Li Qing clicked his tongue, and his eyes fell on the cooled small meteorite belt. The sensor scanned that there was star core material in the cooled small meteorite belt.

The star core material is a good thing. Generally, it is only found in the core of the planet. It contains many ultra-rare and special materials. It is an essential material for making top-level technological creations. The price is very expensive, as high as 500 million star yuan.

Usually mining can only be done by setting up deep-core mining shafts on the planet to slowly extract the star core material, and also pay attention to the amount of extraction not to be too much, so as not to affect the stability of the planet.

It is worth mentioning that theoretically all planets have core matter, but in fact most planets have a low core matter content.

There is a saying in the sea of ​​stars that has not yet been supported by scientific theories. The amount of star core material contained in a planet has nothing to do with the size of the planet, but is related to the environment and structure of the planet.

To put it bluntly, it depends on whether your planet has the potential to become a living planet.

Barren planets generally don't have much star core matter, while living planets must have a lot of star core matter.

Similarly, the amount of star core material also determines whether the planet has the potential to be transformed into a habitable planet.

It is usually not allowed to collect star core materials by directly exploding stars. It is said that it is an unspoken rule in the new universe. Li Qing does not know where this statement comes from, but he has never seen anyone use the method of exploding stars to collect star core materials. Collect star core material.

So being able to come across an accidentally shattered planet is definitely a godsend.

He scanned the surroundings with radar to determine the patrol behavior of nearby wild monsters, and then ordered the fleet to fly in the direction of the broken satellite.

After radar scanning, two small fleets will pass through the broken satellite area back and forth. He needs to destroy these two small fleets to collect star core materials with peace of mind.

Fortunately, it is only a small fleet. If it is a large fleet, there is no way.

The two small fleets were not patrolling together, but one was on the other side and the other was on this side. He sent three frigates to lure them over, and then the main force rushed up to beat them up and wipe them out easily.

Then use the same method to lure another one over, and then use the same method to destroy it.

Then a few mining ships and industrial ships were released to start operations, collecting the star core material floating in the void.

It is obvious that Li Qing is the first batch of players to come to this galaxy, otherwise the star core material would not be his turn, if it was near Jinmen Province, it would have been searched and taken away by previous pioneer players.

This batch of star core material seems to be a lot, and the cooling lava meteorite stretches for thousands of kilometers, but in fact it does not contain much star core material.

After all, it’s just a small satellite, not a big planet. Most of it contains rare minerals and elements found inside various star cores. There are probably not many units of real star core material.

But this thing has 500 million star dollars per unit, as long as one unit is enough, it will be a big profit.

It took almost half a day to collect all the meteorites formed from the star core lava, and the mining ship returned to the universe in the palm. Now there is no rare element refining equipment at hand, so we can only wait for the Jialan team to refine with team equipment, or the next time we go back, we can refine it by ourselves. Order a set.

After collecting, Li Qing glanced at the broken satellite shell, which must contain a lot of ore and planetary material, but the collection is a protracted task, and he doesn't have the time.

It's a pity that the fragments are too large to fit into the storage caliber beyond the maximum ten kilometers of the universe in the palm, otherwise they will be taken away in one pot.

He didn't leave after that, because the signal coordinates were on the planet, and it happened to be below the orbit of the broken satellite, so there was no need to change the position.

This planet is a very common barren planet, but it has a thick atmosphere, and many places on the surface are covered with thick layers of ice, which shows that the planet has water and an atmosphere, and the orbit of the planet is also above the habitable zone of the star , and the climate conditions are not bad, theoretically this barren planet has the possibility of becoming a living planet.

However, this is likely to get lower and lower over time until it is almost impossible.

If any planet has the possibility of becoming a living planet, within two or three billion years after the formation of the planet, the most geologically active stage of the planet will slowly form the ecological circle of the living planet.

From the structural point of view, the age of this barren planet obviously exceeds this optimal age. Unless something unexpected happens, it is basically impossible to slowly evolve an ecological circle on its own.

However, the two key factors of water and atmosphere are all available, which shows that this planet can be transformed into a livable planet through environmental transformation, and the transformation cost is lower than other barren planets.

If there is such a planet in the galaxy where the outpost is located, the expeditionary force will definitely try to transform it.

The signal coordinates are located in a plateau mountain covered by thick ice. The five frigates slowly descended into the violent atmosphere. Just after passing through the thick atmosphere, they suddenly received an alarm of being attacked. Internally launched missiles.

The built-in point defense system of the frigate sprays a barrage of flames, easily intercepting and destroying missiles.

The tracking system of the battleship found the launch site of the missile at the first time, but there was a hole in the middle of a high mountain among the barren mountains, and the missile flew out of the hole.

Obviously, this planet used to be a military base of an ancient civilization, which was destroyed by a great war, but there are still some remnants of military facilities that have not been completely destroyed.

Li Qing pressed the palm of his hand on the light curtain of the map in front of him, and stretched his five fingers to enlarge the map. Looking at the picture displayed on the projected map, he pressed his head, feeling a little headache:

"YY bah, don't you want me to send the marines to land?"

The coordinates are in the mountains, but apart from the thick ice, the surface is full of various wreckage and craters, as well as broken military facilities, and nothing of value can be seen.

Not on the surface, naturally it is inside the mountain.

"It's all here."

Li Qing could only prepare the ground troops in the palm universe, three clone squadrons and three robot assault squadrons were ready to land on the industrial ship.

Two hours later a medium troop carrier appeared out of nowhere above the planet's orbit and began dropping ground troops.

The landing of the Marine Corps on the planet generally depends on the situation of the planet and the scale of the mission. Small-scale landings are generally launched directly into the planet with a landing module, and large-scale landings are launched by troop carriers.

The landing of 600 people can only be regarded as a small-scale mission. One by one, the launch pods flew out of the troop carrier and shot into the planet like meteors.

The launching and landing module looks like chopsticks, and its structure is very strong. After passing through the thick atmosphere, it falls to the ground and inserts into the mud rock or ice layer, and the soldiers inside are unscathed.

Li Qing sat in the battleship, and the light curtain in front of his eyes clearly showed that the hatches of the landing hatches inserted into the ground were opened one by one, and heavily armed clone soldiers or robot assault soldiers came out of them one after another, and quickly assembled into small teams for vigilance.

Although they are only the lowest cannon fodder troops, don't doubt their professionalism.

Clones belong to the professionally trained cannon fodder troops. They grow from embryos to adults in just a few months, and they only have a lifespan of 20 to 30 years. They are born with specialized skills that can be put to use immediately.

Like the clone troopers, they are naturally equipped with military-related skills. There are three in total, namely infantry professional combat skills, special operations, and battlefield adaptation in special environments.

The combination of the three skills allows them to face most combat environments.

All the skills of the clone troop just out of the factory are only LV1, and the skill level can be improved through combat. In theory, it can be upgraded to LV10, which is the 10th level clone warrior. Not only the combat skills become very powerful, but also have the opportunity to break the fate.

The tenth-level clone fighters can accept advanced gene modulation technology. Dozens of genetic operations can not only make up for the genetic defects of clones, but also make them stronger, just like Little Superman.

But the most important thing for human cloning is that these advanced gene modulation technologies can allow them to break through the original 20 to 30 years of life defects like natural people, and obtain the status of imperial citizens, no longer cannon fodder without human rights.

Although it is difficult to say, the empire produces trillions of clone cannon fodder every year, but there are less than 100,000 clone fighters who can survive countless life-and-death battles until the end.

But this is an opportunity after all, and it is also the life goal of all clones.

Three hundred clone warriors and three hundred robot assault soldiers, under the command of their respective commanders, quickly found several entrances and exits in that area. With the cooperation of several frigates parked above, they smashed down the entrances and then broke into them.

Li Qing didn't do anything, professional things should be done by professional people, fleet command is okay, but he is a layman in ground combat, it would be a disaster for his subordinates if he wanted to command.

Li Qing has also considered that in the future, when there are a certain number of warships under his command, he will find a few powerful fleet commanders to share the workload.

It's not that he can't command.

He has super high innate attributes far surpassing other players, regardless of perception and memory, mind and spirit, etc., have benefits for command, allowing him to respond quickly and accurately in the face of complex battles.

Although it is not as good as the kind of natural famous general who is born to eat this bowl of food, as a fleet commander, as long as he does not make mistakes and has the ability to use all the combat power under his command, this is a very good commander.

The main reason is that there will be more warships in the future, and the establishment of bases in the future will face more and more complicated situations. In many cases, he will have to do different things at the same time, and he will not be able to do it at the same time. At this time, several fleet commanders are needed to help command the fleet.

Whether it's a player or a recruited fleet commander, as long as you can use it with confidence, it's fine.

After waiting for about an hour and a half, the intermittent communication finally sent good news that the underground base at the coordinate position has been explored.

In addition to a large number of steel alloys stored in the underground warehouse, a hidden secret room was found at the bottom, which contained some data chips.

Half an hour later, a silver-white metal box that had been checked was moved in front of Li Qing and opened.

The metal box was full of cold air, and inside was a delicate metal shelf with many data chips inserted on it.

Li Qing took out one at random, and a metal ball floated from behind the seat, and inserted the data chip into a socket in the metal ball. The light curtain in front of his eyes bounced off, and the dense data slipped down like a waterfall.

This is a data decoder, which specializes in decoding various unknown data chips and extracting information and data from them.

In just two minutes, the waterfall-like data began to turn into information he knew, which showed that the technological level of this data chip must not be comparable to the level of human civilization.

After the decoding was completed, the information completely appeared in front of him, and Li Qing showed a trace of surprise after only one glance.

What is contained in this chip is a part of a planetary environment modification technology.

To be precise, it is part of some kind of environment modification technology.

Generally, the planetary environment is not static, even if it is the same ocean planet, the environment inside will be very different, so the planetary environment transformation technology is a very complicated technology, almost without limit.

There is only a small part in front of him, and Li Qing can't see why. Next, he will decode the chips inside one by one, and then put them together to form a complete document.

When all the data chips were integrated into one, a complete planetary environment modification technology appeared in front of him, and it was a very rare technology, which belonged to the top technology that players could not obtain under normal circumstances.

Moreover, Li Qing discovered that this set of planetary environment modification technology seems to be tailored for the current planet.

In other words, the original purpose of the owner of this technology is to transform this current planet into a habitable planet through planetary transformation technology.

It's a pity that the technology has just been researched, and before it can be implemented, the base has suffered a devastating blow, and there is no more.

However, Li Qing felt that it wasn't just that the planet had been hit, but that the civilization had also been hit, and then the entire family was wiped out.

If there is no genocide, only the base on this planet is destroyed, there should be people from the clan to clean up the mess.

And at this moment, Li Qing had a huge doubt in his mind, where is the mother planet of this destroyed civilization?

This destroyed civilization should not be any of the three alien civilizations in the Zutar star field. He had seen the space station where the Shata tribe united before, and he guessed whether the Shata tribe had once colonized here.

But whether it is the wreckage of the battleship floating in the orbit of the planet, or the architectural style on the planet, it is fundamentally different from those three civilizations, and it is absolutely impossible to be any of the three.

"wrong!"

Li Qing woke up suddenly and ordered the fleet to re-scan the surroundings. He was surprised to find that the wreckage of warships all over the planet was of the same type, and no warships of the second style were found.

It also means, either civil war.

Either there was a fleet they couldn't resist directly swept them away, and even such a large-scale engagement did not cost them a single battleship.
