Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

The Wade family, who came from the giant Heen trading company, were thinking of finding a new way to avoid the war in the core star area through a new ship idea.

I don't know.

The group of people they were thinking about were also observing them silently.

Horn-14, above the star at the center of the galaxy.

In this orange dwarf star, which is slightly larger than the sun, it is surrounded by countless electromagnetic waves that are constantly emitting turbulence.

A very small outpost, hidden in the void.

On a small scale, it is a helpless move.

After all, the first batch to set off was a reconnaissance fleet, which did not carry any decent engineering equipment;

As for the experimental engineering ships that were added in the second batch, in order to carry the flash drive engines for other ships and the various equipment needed to install them... there was not much space in the remaining cargo holds.

So much so that after arriving here, if you want to build an outpost, you have to pluck the wool from the sheep:

This small hidden outpost was built entirely from one of the engineering ships and the only cargo ship in the second batch of replenished engineering fleets.

The advantage of the 'modular hull doctrine' is that the internal modules of these ships can be disassembled and refitted.

In extreme cases, the warship can even be dismantled on site and converted into a small-scale fixed stronghold while retaining the 'energy', 'power', 'warehouse' and other sections and reorganizing it.

Small but complete.

If you take a picture of the surface of any exoplanet, you can build a small colony, which can carry out production work such as collection and planting;

If you take a picture of the outer space orbit of the planet, it will be a small orbital outpost - small is 'small' by the standards of interstellar civilization, at least, it is as big as Tiangong.

Due to such a modular transformation mechanism, even if the additional troops subsequently dispatched did not carry any construction resources, the reconnaissance fleet successfully completed the deployment of the outpost on Horn 14.

Moreover, the very small scale also brings a strange benefit:

——The volume is many times smaller than that of a normal star base, so that the 'semi-sustainable shielding barrier' that consumes a lot of energy on the latter can be easily deployed on it.

As a result, this small outpost seemed to have become an eye position in the void.

Hiding in the mist, quietly spying on every move of all outsiders in the galaxy.

It's like a camera behind one-way glass.

The small reconnaissance fleet was also anchored among them.

In fact, they do fulfill their ward duties perfectly.

He passed on all the information conscientiously without being discovered from beginning to end.

But now, a somewhat strange target appeared in the sight of the outpost.

They were a very strange group of natives of the Fire Reef Star Territory who inexplicably carried a large number of professional signal monitoring and interpretation equipment.

Regarding the arrival of these people, the main control brain responsible for operating the outpost, after judgment, believed that it was necessary to further maintain detection and submit data to superiors as soon as possible.

Therefore, it arranges dedicated threads to monitor these targets one-on-one.

And quickly submitted the report...

..

In the command center of the outpost.

A special mental network cloud computing signal tower was carefully assembled by autonomous omnics.

And deployed in the most heavily guarded areas.

The moment the power was turned on and started, all the lighting fixtures half-buried on the ceiling of the outpost dimmed for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a holographic projection appeared in mid-air in the center of the command center.

Those gorgeous projected lights seem to be trying to condense a graceful figure.

But because the electrical appliances around him kept flashing as if they were having a convulsion, he had no choice but to give up.

then...

After a moment, a Q version of Yubari with three heads appeared in the holographic projection.

A big-headed doll with twin ponytails, which looks very naive.

Standing with arms crossed.

On the surface, she was in the command center of this small outpost.

But on the other side, in the command center of the planetary capital of the empire's home star, she also maintained the vision of her own body and shared the information from this ultra-small projection.

"...Okay, let me see what these guys found..."

Yubari on her home planet raised what looked like a monocular microscope eyepiece in front of everyone and put it against her eyes.

He narrowed his eyes and stood still.

——Due to the hyperspace blocking field outside the solar system and the long distance of 'Solar System→Perseus', this saves traffic.

Little Yubari at the frontline outpost suddenly became much more agile.

He broke away from the holographic projection and rushed to the main console of the command center.

The mental humanoid's unique thinking ability as an intelligent life quickly invaded it, and began to browse the various records inside...

"Oh, the elm-heads didn't blame others wrongly. These guys are really suspicious,"

This time, it was Xiao Yubari's turn to remain stationary while maintaining the posture of connecting. Dai Yubari couldn't help but marveled.

"They actually have a mobile-deployable, supercomputing-level encrypted signal deciphering base station, as well as a full set of professional software...

And this, what is this?

High-power scanned filter and detector arrays? No wonder they have to drive a stupid, big, black and thick light cruiser. A destroyer-level boat cannot carry an electric tiger of this size at all..."

“One thing is for sure, they are very well prepared.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of various checkpoints along the way as much as possible, we have specially prepared equipment that is as small as possible.

This method is quite useful for civilizations that cannot perform fluoroscopic scanning,"

Yubari shook his head,

“But if the opposite is true...then it will only have the opposite effect.

The more secretive you are, the more suspicious you will appear in the eyes of others. "

For an empire that has fully unlocked the technology related to the tachyon field, facing these little Karami from middle and lower civilizations, it is indeed no different from Gua Ge who has turned on clairvoyance.

It was clear what was hidden in their fleet.

Of course, it is indeed a bit exaggerated to say that you can "see patterns on the palm of your hand" or "see fire with insight".

But as long as we deploy enough advanced equipment and provide enough energy...

How far and how accurate you want to scan is really just a matter of whether you are willing to pay for it.

Back in the Haijin Star Territory, this was how the faults of the Uumeng fleet were discovered:

——There is no place in the entire fleet that Hipper cannot sweep through. He can even see clearly what kind of salty novel is hidden under the bed board in the fleet commander's cabin. How could he not be able to sweep it out? Just an ordinary container?

If something secretive suddenly pops up in a transparent environment, then it has a big problem in itself.

It's the same now, because the powerful information capabilities of the reconnaissance fleet have wiped out the pants of these refugees in one go, so the Wade family's belongings give people an abnormal feeling.

Cervantes is what the old man calls a 'genius' and 'the family's hope for future revitalization'.

The old man hopes that this young man, who has already obtained the title of professor in the technology development department of a trading giant and has extremely high attainments in the fields of cryptography and information technology, can bring great influence to the family's re-emergence. assistant...

...The Wade family originally relied on their engineering abilities to make their fortune. Their ancestors were engineers among the first batch of colonists.

Of course, Cervantes is not yet at the point where he can become a god with his skills, so there is no harm in keeping a low profile.

But for them now, a professor on the run with a lot of professional-grade equipment is very suspicious in itself.

To use a somewhat weird analogy,

At the moment, they are like ordinary Nanbang civilians who fled to Beibang with a THAAD system.

Or perhaps, an ordinary social beast took away the 'Spruce' supercomputer used by the Pentagon to conduct nuclear explosion simulations.

Normal people, let alone fleeing or not, would not have access to this level of professional equipment.

It was an important military weapon, not just a 'set of relatively high-precision radar systems' or 'a computer'.

Just thinking about it, I know that if this kind of thing can really be taken away casually, it will need to be poked in the old American lung tube more - transposition thinking, in Yubari's eyes, these immigrants from He En are undoubtedly very worthwhile Study deeply.

and...

"Not only is the equipment itself, it is so sophisticated that it is completely unlike what an ordinary star-field wealthy family like them can possess.

Even the database seems to contain very unusual things..."

"what?"

"A set of signals, a very strange set of tachyon signals."
