"Then, now designate me as the captain. Take us out of the port quickly, we are going to pursue the enemy."

"The command is accepted, but it cannot be executed." The answer from the Intelligent Core almost made us lose the big shot.

"What does it mean to accept the command and cannot be executed? You should execute the command after you accept it!" Adina obviously didn't know much about this core, so she asked in surprise.

Intelligent Core quickly replied: "The command is issued by the correct commander with legal authority, so the command is acceptable and must be accepted, but the command itself exceeds the capacity of the ship and is therefore unable to be executed."

"It's beyond your ability to start a warship?" I asked in surprise: "Aren't you an unmanned construction warship? Can't you even move?"

"Of course, this ship has mobile functions, but it cannot be done now."

“What’s the reason?”

"The reserve energy is zero, and it is almost impossible to maintain the core operation. In another three minutes and fifteen seconds, the core will soon fall into dormant due to energy exhaustion."

"Damn! Where is the energy input port?" I asked directly.

"Please move forward according to the instructions." A huge green arrow suddenly appeared above our heads, and this thing would actually move with me. No matter what direction I turn, the arrow always floated one meter in front of me and two meters high from the ground, and it always pointed to the big door of this room.

Since we had clear instructions, it was simple. We ran out of the gate quickly, and as we moved, the arrow suddenly jumped outside the gate and pointed to a direction in the corridor as we approached the gate. After we came out, we cut the head and immediately jumped to the fork in front and pointed to the fork on the left.

With this super convenient pointing arrow, we found the energy warehouse in less than a minute. There is a large room in this location, and a very complex machine is placed inside. There is a small gate on one side of the machine facing the gate, which is about the size of a monitor. After pushing the gate open as directed, we saw an empty internal space. This space may only have the size of an extra-large refrigerator, but this thing is not used to refrigerate food. This is the feed port of the magic crystal extractor, which is the temporary storage of the magic crystal.

"Who did you bring magic crystals?" The low-level magic crystals on me just ran out, and now all the rest are high-end goods. It is obviously a waste to use these high-end magic crystals to fill this kind of equipment with energy, so I wanted to see if others brought them.

Fortunately, the magic power consumption of Christina's turret is quite exaggerated. So sometimes some magic crystals are needed to replenish magic power. Naturally, she will carry some magic crystals on her body. Of course, most of the things she uses are high-end products, but there are also some low-level magic crystals.

He quickly threw all the magic crystals that Christina had plundered into the feed port. The moment the gate was closed, we immediately heard a roar of the machine starting. Then the whole room lit up.

Before, Christina used energy shock to start the core and it was equivalent to inputting a small amount of energy into the core. Although this core is not very good at brain, it has done a very good job in its own management and even built-in power saving mode. Just the little energy that Christina rushed in when it started before, if this structural warship was fully started, it would probably not have time to say a few words to us and it would be over again. However, this core has energy management function, so after finding that the total energy volume is lower than the minimum bar, it only started the core and did not care about other equipment. This is also the reason why the warship cannot drive.

Now that magic crystal filler has entered, the energy crisis has been temporarily lifted, and at this time the warship has been completely resurrected. All internal machinery has been started, and the lights in the cabin have also lit up.

"Core, detect the energy reserves." After the machine started, I asked, mainly to see the energy demand status of this thing. There were obviously not many magic crystals just now. Although the warships of our guild now do not use magic crystals directly as energy source, we have used magic crystals as fuel in the past, so I know very well that if this magic crystal is on the warships of our guild, it will not last long.

Sure enough, the Intelligent Core directly replied: "The current energy reserve is 0.5% per thousand, and without activate the tactical function, it can maintain a 15-hour cruise time."

"It's really too few!" Christina took out a golden magic crystal and asked me hesitantly: "Or would you put this in?"

"Even if you want to use it, you can't use it that advanced!" I asked helplessly: "Core, tell me if you can only fill the magic crystal stones here?"

"No, theoretically, as long as the substance with a large amount of magic energy can be filled in, but the energy conversion grate of this ship is not strong, so if too much impurity is used, the conversion furnace may stop working."

“So is there any problem if the energy substance is a liquid?”

"There is no problem with liquid energy or gaseous energy. This ship uses a general-purpose conversion furnace, and all energy types can be used. However, gaseous energy needs to be paid attention to the sealing problem when filling the feed port."

The reason I ask this is mainly because I still have a lot of liquefied magic crystal steam on me. This thing is a purified magic crystal converter. In theory, it is an energy that is more suitable for conversion than magic crystal stone. At present, in addition to using sun furnaces on the warships of our guild, they are basically replaced by a power system that uses liquefied magic crystal steam as energy. Because this energy is relatively stable and is convenient for controlling output. After all, we can control the concentration after liquefiedness, and the purity of the magic crystal itself has always been very unstable. Therefore, compared with magic crystal stone, the magic crystal steam after liquefiedness is obviously better controlled.

"It's really a useful device." As I said, I opened the feed port again, then took out a tank of liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank, then opened the valve directly and aimed it at the feed port and let Christina use a magic shield to form a closed protective cover around the feed port to prevent the liquefied magic crystal steam from evaporating. You must know that the reason why liquefied magic crystal steam is called liquefied steam is because this thing is gaseous at room temperature. So, if there is no constraint, once I open the valve, these liquefied magic crystal steams will probably fill the entire room soon.

Using this method, we quickly poured half a bottle of liquefied magic crystal steam into the feed port. After re-enclosing, I asked about the reserve situation again.

"Captain, the energy substance you just used is of high energy level and can hardly find impurities. It is a very good energy substance. The current energy reserves of this ship are 183:79, and the energy reserves have increased significantly."

"It seems that you have a lot of energy reserves." I said and poured the remaining half in. I didn't put them all in before because I was worried that adding too much to exceed the capacity would cause bad results. Since it's okay, don't worry.

After the energy recharge is completed, we all return to the control room. Of course, this control room refers to the cab located at the top of the island, not the room where the core is located.

After arriving here, I asked the warship to move again. This time there was no problem. After several advances, the warship moved out of the middle of the stacked fleet. It was very fast. Obviously, the driving technology is much better than someone who operates it. This is actually the advantage of the mechanical system. Although it is very problematic to deal with things that require brain use, artificial intelligence has an advantage for some purely troublesome things.

After quickly moving out of the position, the warship moved from the harbor on the shore to the half of the port we entered. Because the underwater entrance was here, but when we arrived here, the warship suddenly began to sink, which scared us so much that we quickly prepared for diving. For example, Zhenhong, and Radamantis were all better, just put down their helmet masks. The key is Christina and gold coins, and they need to use water-retardant spells to move underwater.

Although this warship looks like a surface ship, as expected, this thing can be dived, and its performance is not worse than that of conventional submarines. Instead, it is very awesome. At least the submarine speed just now was very fast, otherwise we, the senior personnel, would not be frustrated by the waterproof work. In fact, this thing dived too fast, and we had already flooded before we could react.

What? Why do we have water coming in the cabin? Have you forgotten that the cockpit door was removed by the Russians? How can the cabin without doors be waterproof?

Originally, if this kind of thing was a normal intelligent warship, he would definitely ask in advance. After all, the first step of the warship's self-test system is to detect the integrity of the shell. It is obviously wrong to dive even if the cabin door is missing. However, the above is just a speculation under normal circumstances. The key problem is that this constructed warship is obviously a product of the ancient Atlantis, and the Atlantis are the mermaids. The mermaid itself can survive in the sea with its own body, so whether the hull leaks is not a problem for them. In fact, when these warships were used that year, many warships did not close even in submarine mode.

Magic Machinery is different from the electrical equipment built by humans in the real world. Magic devices are not afraid of water at all, because water's ability to conduct magic power is actually very bad, that is to say, for magic, water is an insulator. Because of this characteristic, Magic Machinery is not afraid of water at all. Even if it is soaked in water, it can operate normally and will never fail due to leakage problems. In addition, mermaids themselves do not need to live in the air, so even their submersible warships often sail with their hatch doors.

It is precisely because the people of Atlantis are all marine creatures that this intelligent core has no response to the water in the cabin, because this seems to be a normal thing in this core, and there is no need to remind you at all.

Of course, although these warships can sail and fight when completely filled with water, they usually keep their interior dry when diving. This behavior is not to maintain the ship, but to consider combat performance. After all, the high density of water will make the transmission of explosive shock waves easier, so under the tree, the lethality of shock waves is much greater than that in the air. Therefore, if the cabin door is open and the cabin is full of sea water, then what if there is any explosive

If an explosion near the hull, a solid hull may not be a big deal, but the people in the cabin will suffer. An ordinary torpedo may be able to shake everyone in the cabin to death. On the contrary, if the cabin is sealed during sailing and the cabin door is closed, then something explodes near the hull, the shock wave will be absorbed by the hull shell and then transmitted to the air inside the cabin. When this shock wave is transmitted to the personnel through the air, the power has dropped a lot. The damage will naturally drop significantly.

In fact, in addition to the reasons for damage control, there is another point for navigation performance. Closing the cabin to fill the ship with air will reduce the overall mass of the warship, so that the inertia will decrease during navigation and the natural motion performance will be greatly improved. Not only will the power and energy be saved, the flexibility during navigation will also be greatly improved. In addition, the resistance of people in the air will be much lower than that in the water. Therefore, if the cabin is full of water, the operator's movements will inevitably slow down, which will undoubtedly further reduce the performance of the ship. Last point, when the hull is completely sealed, a whole will be formed, and the advantages of fluid mechanics will be exerted. If the cabin doors are open, the warship filled with water will not be considered a fluid mechanics shape at all, and the resistance will be increased many times. In this case, tactical performance will naturally be affected.

For these reasons, these constructed warships will mostly dive after closing the hatch. It is just because of the special attributes of the Atlantis people, even if the hatch is not closed, the intelligent core will not remind you because he thinks this is no big deal. Anyway, the warship has a special drainage device, and even if the interior is filled with water, as long as you want, you can close the hatch door and pump out the water inside at any time.

Although this second-hand smart did not remind us in time, fortunately, the waterproofing method was not very troublesome, and everyone was very fast, so no one choked on the water.

Staying in the bridge of a submersible warship is obviously different from riding a submarine. The submarine is basically a big can. If there is anything outside, it is basically a dark look. Even if there is a window, you can't see much distance. However, the submarine warship is different. The observation window in front of the cockpit of this thing seems to use special magic imaging technology. Looking out from the bridge, you can clearly feel that the underwater environment has become very clear. Not only can we see the bow of the ship that is more than 400 meters in a straight line from the bridge, but we can even extend the line of sight forward about 500 meters.

It is not something that can be done with a good eye underwater. Water has much better obstruction to light than air. In addition, it is a deep sea, and the water depth is very large, and the surroundings are pitch black. There is no lighting equipment on this warship, so it can still have such a line of sight. This is really a very awesome design.

Of course, although this design is very practical and looks awesome, this principle is not complicated at all. We all know that there is a kind of magic called water mirror technology, which can be used as a monitor in addition to super mirrors. Using water mirror technology with some remote observation magic, such as the Wizard's Eye, you can directly see what is happening far away. The observation window inside the bridge in front of you is obviously using constant water mirror technology, so we can see the situation outside. And although what we see seems to be seeing from here

The pictures, but in fact, these are all pictures displayed by magic to the water mirror technique. It is like all the windows of this bridge are actually monitors, but they are connected to remote cameras, so it seems that we can see the pictures outside, but it is just a virtual situation of the construction of magic images, and it is not that we really see that place. Of course, because this is the impact of real-time transmission, although we can't really see that far away, it is not a problem for commanding operations and heading.

Thanks to this thoughtful design, we can clearly see the surrounding environment within the bridge, which brings great benefits to our command. In fact, there are other observation methods on the ship that can provide observations at a larger distance.

In fact, in naval battles, whether on the water surface or underwater, we rarely rely directly on our vision to fight. After all, whether in or outside the game, the weapons on the warships we use now are far beyond our vision range, so using eyes is obviously not suitable for controlling combat. In the game, we mainly use several ways, one is magic sensing, the other is sonar, and the third is third-party reconnaissance.

Magic sensing is a bit similar to radar, but it is different from radar in reality. The active sensing range of this thing is very small, but the passive sensing distance is super far. However, the difference between this thing and radar in reality is that it cannot be precisely positioned and can only be used for conceptual reconnaissance, which means that it tells you which direction someone is and how far the distance is, and the others cannot be sensed.

Shengna is also divided into two parts in the game. Active Shengna is not used in the game, but with creatures. There are many monsters and intelligent creatures with sonar positioning ability in the game. Most of these monsters can be captured and become demon pets. As for those intelligent marine races, as long as they have a good relationship, they can be hired to serve as biological creatures. As for passive Shengna, they are actually listeners in the water. Because the distance of sound propagating underwater is much further than in the air. Therefore, using a directional water listener can discover the sound of large ships and capture the other party's position in advance.

In fact, only our guilds are currently used by the last third-party reconnaissance. Its representative existence is the leading guide ship of our guild. The leading guide ship does not have much firepower and does not have much displacement, but it is equipped with large warship-level thrusters and the best optical observation equipment and crystal communicators. Its function is to detect the target in advance. Then, use triangular positioning to confirm the relative position of the target and the fleet, and then guide the main fleet to conduct an out-of-visit attack outside the visual range.

This constructed warship is obviously equipped with special underwater detection equipment, and it may be very powerful, because when we first left the port tunnel, we discovered several escaping submarines in front of us.

In fact, we have been wasting a lot of time to start this construction warship, so the other party should have run far in this time. The reason why we insist on chasing is mainly because we can also contact Yamamoto Izuru's crystal communicator, so we can do simple positioning, which is why we can be sure that we will not lose.

However, to our surprise, this constructed warship actually had such powerful detection equipment that it immediately discovered the target as soon as it left the port.

"The distance and direction of the other party?" I asked loudly.

"In this direction." The observation window in front of us was indeed covered with the display of the water mirror technique. The nearby sea chart was directly given on it, and it was also a submarine route map. The value of this thing itself is quite considerable.

"You actually have a chart?"

"This is pre-stored information." The construction warship replied directly.

Although we were surprised at first, we felt relieved after thinking about it. After all, this construction warship was built by the Atlantis, and what is different from us is that Atlantis is a marine race. It is a very troublesome thing for us to draw a sea chart, especially an underwater chart, but it is a relatively simple thing for the Atlantis. Although drawing a sea chart is also very difficult and long-term work due to the area, the Atlantis can live normally underwater, so it is much simpler for them to draw a seabed topographic map than for us. After all, they can stay on the seabed without having to float, which saves a lot of time.

I haven't been concerned about the chart yet, so I directly looked at the marked positions on the chart displayed. This chart is very simple. Except for the terrain, only two points are marked with the main ones, and a broken line extends next to each point. Some information is written at the end of the broken line. Of course, it is in Atlantis, and the content is quite surprising.

In addition to the information such as the other party's location, heading, and current speed, the information marked on the map also includes the other party's ship name, ship type, tonnage and status.

At first, when we heard that when we found the target, we thought the detection system on the ship was very awesome, but now it seems that this is not the case, because no matter how powerful the detection system is, it is impossible to detect the name of the other person's ship and the situation of the ship, right? These are all artificially marked things, not the inherent attributes of the ship. No matter how powerful the detector is, it is impossible to read this information.

Sure enough, after I asked, the core immediately replied: "The display data is information obtained through remote communication. The target ship and this part belong to the same camp ship. Although it is not equipped with biological cores, it has a communication system. This ship has already captured two-way with the target ship. Now it can be used for remote information sharing."

"Do you still bring this kind of person?" Christina sighed from the side.

"Even our own crystal communicator is technology obtained from the Atlantis, it is not surprising that the Atlantis have crystal communicators, which can share information by themselves." Jin Coin said.

I looked at Adina and asked, "Your Atlantis seems to have regressed a lot without any improvement compared to the techniques of these ancient Atlantis!"

Adina nodded without any hesitation and said, "Yes, Atlantis had a large-scale naval battle a long time ago. You have heard of some of the subsequent events before, but what I know is not very comprehensive. I only know that the previous Atlantis tribe's internal split caused by external wars, and we are just one of the forces that split out. You should be aware of the dispersion of scientific researchers, which will lead to the loss of technology. It is actually very lucky that we can preserve our current technical level. And, master, when you first arrived in Atlantis, our technology was actually a little better than the situation after it split. If we had just split, the situation would only be worse."

I nodded to express my understanding. Then I turned to the Intelligent Core and said, "How far is the distance between you and the other party?"

"About three hundred nautical miles."

"Good. Is it quite long?" I immediately said after I said: "So since this is the case, don't chase it too close. By the way, how big is the range of the other party's detector?"

"About ten nautical miles. The other side is a transport ship, not as advanced as combat ship equipment."

"You said before that you were two-way capture. Can the other party discover our location?" Christina asked.

The core answered: "It's all our own ships. Of course, it can be found that the other party is an artificial ship, so it needs to be operated manually. At present, the other party's communicator is in standby state, and it was activated because of my contact request, so the other party should not know our location yet."

"You mean you activated the other party's communicator?"

"Yes."

"So what will happen to the ship after this communicator is started? For example, what indicator lights are on?"

"No." said the core: "The communicator has no signal light."

I felt relieved after hearing this, and it seemed that we were quite lucky. Although the submarine used by the other party when he left was not the one that Yamamoto Irooha was transported over, but a larger model, these submarines were all the same. Except for the navigation system and the basic detection system, other components could not be activated. Although the other party had studied it for a while, no one would fiddle with the equipment that could not be activated anymore because we did not find a solution. However, the communicator on the ship has actually been started now, but because this thing has been paralyzed before, no one is operating it at all. Naturally, they don’t know that this thing can be used. Otherwise, if we find them, they will definitely find us at the same time.

"By the way, the people who occupied this place before said that the submarines could not start other than navigation and detection systems. Do you know what the reason is? And how did you just turn on the communicator?"

The core answered very quickly: "The navigation and detection system of the transport submarine is a necessary shipping equipment, so it is directly connected to the main energy system and will start as long as it is filled with magic crystals. However, the communication and self-defense weapon systems are non-essential devices and will only be activated when needed. Therefore, the isolation method is adopted. Unless it is activated using the identity crystal that the Atlantis carries with you after birth, it can only be activated remotely through a constructed warship like me."

"You mean you can not only control the other party's communicator, but also control their weapons?" Christina keenly discovered the information in the other party's words.

Unexpectedly, the core actually admitted: "Yes. Transport submarines are very fragile in combat, so after a battle, they will usually be taken over by a constructed warship like me and enter a unified grouping mode. In this mode, all ships in the fleet are commanded and controlled by the fleet flagship. This ship is one of the highest authority constructed warships. As long as the fleet commander takes on this ship, this ship is the flagship."

"Then can you remotely control that submarine now?"

"Not yet. I need the control permission of the identity crystal mark. At present, I can only listen to the other party's operations and cannot control it in reverse."

Members of the Atlantis will carry a crystal with them as soon as they are born. This thing is like an ID card for the Atlantis, and this thing also has a series of functions such as private photo albums, various private keys, wallets, small storage spaces, protective props, etc. Because this thing is too important, the Atlantis will never leave their side. Even if the person dies, the crystal will be buried with them. Anyway, this thing will not be separated from the Atlantis from birth. As for if it is thrown away...then the Atlantis can die. Can such an important thing be thrown away, how careless is it?

Although Adina has become a demon pet, she is a mermaid and a member of the Atlantis tribe, so she also has this thing. After hearing the request, Adina immediately took out her crystal and inserted it into a slot rising on the operating table.

As this crystal was in place, the entire operation table shone for a moment. Then I heard the voice of the core of the warship suddenly become nervous and serious: "Sorry, Your Highness, I don't know that you are a princess. Although you have royal blood, the royal blood also has the potential to flow out. However, your natal crystal record shows that you are the kingdom princess. So you don't have to doubt your identity anymore. Sorry, I didn't give the corresponding treatment before."

"Didn't you always be very polite? What does it mean to have no corresponding treatment?" Christina asked.
To be continued...
