The starting point colony ship is about five kilometers in length, one kilometer high, and one kilometer wide. After seeing the design of this thing for the first time, Li Anran, who is a pseudo-game nerd, immediately thought of "

Infinity in Halo.

If you really want to talk about it, the starting point colonial ship is indeed huge in size. After all, the length of the multi-functional exploration ship where Cortana is located is still measured in hundreds of meters. But compared with the city-class starship Shendom, it is far behind.

It's more than just a tiny bit.

Different from the long-shaped colonial ship Starting Point, the shape of the Sanctuary is based on the Atlantis city starship used by the ancients in "Stargate: Atlantis". It is also divided into six areas.

, but to appear larger and more symmetrical.

The diameter of twenty kilometers means that the Shenyu city-class starship has an area of ​​more than three hundred kilometers, plus the highest point is almost two thousand meters. In terms of volume and overall scale, the starting point colonial ship is like

An underdeveloped child.

Unlike Atlantis, which is completely integrated, this city-class starship Dominion not only looks like a snowflake magnified an unknown number of times, but its six equilaterally symmetrical "petals" are actually

An independent starship.

Normally, these starships will be docked with the core hull in the central area. Once encountering a star war or other necessary situation, they will be directly separated into six starships for combat, thereby protecting the core hull and allowing it to be safely transferred.

Even those high-rise buildings that originally stood in the middle area, which can reach as high as more than two thousand meters and as low as several hundred meters, will also be transformed into large or small spaceships when necessary. Cooperate with six main ships

Throw yourself into the fight.

This also means that although the city-class starship God's Domain looks like just a large starship, it is actually a star fleet that is not large in scale but possesses powerful strength.

However, being powerful also means that it is difficult to build this divine city-class starship. No, after working for so long, even with the manufacturing and production of equipment, the collection and processing speed of various resources is getting faster and faster.

Soon there is still no way.

Of course, the reason why progress is so slow is not entirely because the city-class starship God's Domain is too large. To a large extent, it is also because the starting point colonial ship is higher in the production sequence. Most of the production capacity is occupied.

for the sake of.

Fortunately, for Li Anran, although the scale of the city starship Divine Domain is larger, its main function is just to serve as a divine domain as its name suggests. With the shrine on Liuqiu Island, it will be built in a short while.

If it doesn't work, it won't have any impact.

As for the construction of the Qidian colonial ship, although it has not yet been completed, about two-thirds of it has been completed. However, due to assembly problems, the hull shell still needs to be produced in Datang.

.

Although the construction of the starting point colony ship will not be completed for a while, the central intelligence Cortana has already produced several small mining barges, and then handed them over to Li Anran via shuttle to bring them to Mars between Datang time and space.

and the outer reaches of the asteroid-dense region between the orbits of Jupiter.

Originally, Li Anran planned to assemble the mining barge on the earth and then send it to the asteroid belt. However, one of the great advantages of assembling in space is that there is no gravity and gravitational force, plus it is a vacuum environment, which is far more difficult than on the earth.

More beneficial.

As for the manpower issue of assembly, naturally it cannot be done by living people. Instead, Cortana, the central intelligence on the multi-functional exploration spacecraft, designs and produces low-intelligent engineering machinery based on the materials that are on hand and can be manufactured.

body.

Although each of these robots looks uglier than the last, and is far less beautiful than the intelligent robots in artificial intelligence movies, they are still practical enough. Especially the octopus-shaped robots are quite efficient in construction and assembly.

high.

However, after building part of the resource points in the Tang Dynasty time and space, Li Anran made a decision after much deliberation. So after returning to modern time and space and arriving on the multi-functional exploration spacecraft, he directly ordered:

"Cortana, adjust the production sequence and build me a base on Mars in the main time and space that is not easily discovered by the earth. The production of the city-class starship "Dominion" can be temporarily stopped, but the part of the colony ship "Starting Point"

Don't stop."

"Commander, as a result, your plan to establish a divine domain in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty will be greatly postponed." Cortana, the central intelligence brain who looks no different from a real person in appearance, reminded her as long as she is not touched.

.

"Put it back later. Good things can't be taken out at once. The effect will be better if you do it step by step." Li Anran, who anticipated this problem, waved his hand and said: "Moreover, the base on Mars does not need to be big enough to be sufficient.

That’ll be fine.”

"Build it as a small outpost as you mentioned last time. Remember to find a hidden place. After all, human technology in the main time and space can already observe the surface of Mars. Although it is okay to be discovered, it is better to keep a low profile."

"Commander, the scale of small outposts is quite small, and the corresponding supporting equipment is also very limited. If the commander plans to develop in the main time and space, it is recommended to establish a large outpost base." Cortana, who was in a three-dimensional holographic projection state, said

.

"Cortana, I understand what you mean." Li Anran knew that the other party also wanted his own good, and nodded and said: "It's just that I don't plan to make any big developments in the main time and space. At most, I just build a

Basic resource extraction system.”

"Except for me who will come here every once in a while to collect a batch of resources, basically no one else will appear in the outpost. My plan is to fully develop the Tang Dynasty time and space, so the Main Time and Space side is very important to me.

It has lost its meaning.”

Faced with such an answer, Cortana just pondered for a moment before understanding the meaning of the words, and then said: "Commander, so you plan to bring me and this multi-functional exploration spacecraft to the big planet."

Tang Shi is empty?"

"Yes, although the main space and time does have a lot of value, it is far less meaningful to me than the Tang Dynasty time and space. As the saying goes, more is more valuable than more, and it is better to work at both ends than to work at both ends.

It is better to concentrate on developing in the Tang Dynasty."

"As for the problem of using the main space-time as a retreat, it is actually easy to solve. All we need to do is find a suitable star field as a transfer station. Even if a higher civilization appears by then, the other party will not give up this void.

Obliterated?"

"How about it, Cortana, if you don't want to go to Datang with me, then you can stay here at the Mars outpost, but I need to take a copy of your database with me." Sitting at the main control

Li Anran, who was sitting on the chair, looked at the other person and said.

Faced with these words, Intelligent Brain Cortana smiled and said: "Commander, I must obey your orders unconditionally. There is no need to copy the database. After the outpost on Mars and the entire resource system of the main time and space are established, Commander

Just take me away."

In fact, bringing Cortana to the Tang Dynasty was not because of Li Anran's sudden enthusiasm. When he originally planned to take Cortana away, but gave up the idea because of the other party's suggestion, he always felt that the other party seemed unwilling to come with him.

Time and space of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, after some indirect testing, Li Anran felt that his idea still seemed to be the product of "persecution delusion syndrome". After all, this thing was a gift left by his sister, so it would never harm him.

.

But if Cortana is unwilling to go to the Tang Dynasty with her, she really wants to use the main time and space as a fallback route to avoid any problems in the Tang Dynasty. After all, this kind of thing requires such a high-level intelligence to her.

Responsibility is really overkill.

Just like the outposts that were asked to be built by the other party before, even if it is not safe to build one on Mars, you can also build a few more on terrestrial planets, satellites and suitable asteroids in the solar system to explain the three cunning rabbits.

reason.

What's more, in Li Anran's opinion, there will be no problem with the security of the main space and time.

Even though the cheap brother-in-law and I are not from the same time and space, my god-sister Hu Jing is a Tu tribe in this time and space.

Li Anran did not believe that his god-sister would allow the main space and time that was his sister's hometown to be harmed by some higher civilization.
