Second marriage [Zerg]

After the field trip the next day, the two sides reached a series of cooperation intentions, and Yi Luo, as the head of the delegation in name, boarded the plane and returned with a group from K12.

Still in that humble Starport, Old Sante finally finished the legendary routine training and came to see him off with the local guards.

The guard waved off the spaceship respectfully and happily. Sante stood beside him steadily, and only gave a standard military salute when the spaceship took off.

Chu An also waved to the outside through the porthole. Suddenly, a white light flashed past his eyes, and two small silver-white military planes chased to the tail of the spaceship, chasing them forward.

Chu An was taken aback: "Could Sant really want to arrest us..."

Ning Bai explained: "Don't worry, this is just a farewell etiquette for the far-off garrison."

"Are you sure?" Chu An's tone was suspicious.

Ning Bai smiled: "Your air combat novels are all made up, and you don't believe me?"

"No, no, I really want to believe it, but..."

Chu An pointed out the window again, and saw a burly mecha flying towards them against the direction they were sailing. It was menacing, and it seemed that it was about to break out an air battle with the following silver fighter plane.

Not far away, Yiluo's helpless and indulgent voice came to everyone's ears: "... Mikas, don't make trouble, come to our spaceship."

Mikas on the other end of the communicator yelled unconvinced: "You asked me to respond yesterday. You said you asked me to rescue the general, and you said that you might be in danger."

"The danger is gone now," Yiluo said patiently, "and, if you really came to rescue, why did you come here alone?"

"Because I'm powerful, I'm invincible, and my mecha can smash all the spaceships behind me to pieces! A few days ago, even the general praised my mecha manipulation skills, saying that I'm proficient in coordinating mental power, Let me pass on my experience to my comrades in arms!"

Yiluo didn't answer: "...I will start the rescue procedure of the spaceship now, you hang the mech on our spaceship."

"I don't," Mikas disagreed. "Wouldn't this be your rescue of me? Just fly like this, fly back directly, and I will escort you next to you."

"Mikas, the movement of the mecha will be affected by the spaceship, it's too dangerous. You'd better come up..."

At this time, Ning Bai finally couldn't listen anymore, he directly plugged in the communication between Mikas and Yiluo, and said simply: "Mikas, come on the spaceship, I have something to tell you."

After a while, Mikas really obediently allowed his mech to be accepted by the rescue mode of the spaceship, and stepped into the cabin of the spaceship himself.

"Admiral!"

He showed a bright and cheerful smile to his friends, and then went straight to Ning Bai. While running, he felt that the flight suit was in the way, and loosened the opening of his jacket.

"The army is in disarray." Ning Bai criticized seriously, and stretched out his hand to re-fasten Mikas's clothes.

Yiluo stood beside him and shook his head slightly. Mikas made a face at him, and then complained to Ning Bai in a low voice: "You are not the same. Before you come, let me help you find hair dye to look cool."

Ning Bai: "..."

Chu An coughed lightly beside him: "Ahem, oh."

Mikas blinked at Chu An and grinned: "Admiral, why did you ask me to come up?"

"It's nothing serious." Ning Bai said ruthlessly, "I talked to Old Sante yesterday and wanted you to be his adjutant."

"Who? Sante?" Mikas snorted, "I don't! He is my defeat."

"Well, he didn't agree either." Ning Bai continued, "He said he didn't want a partner like you who only has passion and lacks military literacy."

"puff."

Yi Luo beside him couldn't help laughing, he pulled Mikas away and said, "General, you can rest for a while, I brought this guy here, I'll teach him a lesson, so I won't let him bother you. "

Mikas was dragged by Yiluo's arm, turned back to Chu'an and said, "Mr. Chu'an, I have other hair dyes at my place, if you like it, I will give it to you."

Chu An peeked at Ning Bai's expression: "Uh...that's unnecessary."

"Ilo, don't drag me..." Mikas muttered.

Yi Luo hugged his neck and said in a low voice: "I brought you special snacks. I went to buy them early this morning. Eat them while they are hot. They won't taste good when they get cold."

The cabin finally calmed down after Mikas started feasting.

Everyone turned on their optical brains and started working. While checking the editor's letter, Chu An quietly asked Ning Bai: "When did you make an agreement with Sante and let Mikas be his adjutant? I don't remember this passage." Ah. Didn't Santer say he still has to think about it?"

Ning Bai replied: "No, I just made it up."

"……All right."

"Santer will not easily abandon the ideas he believes in. Just relying on his generous statements to shake his heart after drinking is not enough." Ning Bai said, "I really hope that He can partner with Mikas. Mikas really needs a veteran like Santer to lead him around and sharpen his mind."

When Ning Bai said this, he looked ahead lovingly.

Following his line of sight, Chu An saw that Yiluo was sitting with Mikas in the corner of the front cabin, eating the special snacks specially brought to Mikas by Yiluo.

Ning Bai suddenly asked in a low voice: "What do you think, if the long talk last night can't make Sante defect, what else should we do? I hope to win Sante and his troops. He controls a large area, and his subordinates Soldiers are well-trained and capable of fighting, which can immediately increase our military strength."

Chu An thought for a while and said: "Perhaps, facts speak louder than words, let him see our continuous progress and strength? Head Sante is a bit stubborn but not pedantic. If he sees the happiness and tranquility we have created, He'll probably understand better what you said to him."

"By the way," Chu An asked suddenly, "You and Yiluo have been paying attention to the production and supply of mechanical parts and equipment recently. Are you promoting the development of weapons and equipment?"

Ning Bai nodded: "Yes, we have discussed that in order to improve military strength, in addition to expanding the scale, we must also improve the performance of the mecha.

I want to develop a sixth-generation combat mecha on the basis of the fifth-generation mecha.Now K12 has many engineers and skilled technicians, and there are also many experts with equipment manufacturing experience. I am confident that the level of mass-produced weapons of K12 will surpass that of the main star of the insect star. "

Ning Bai showed a confident expression, and Chu An smiled gently at him: "I have confidence too. I have confidence in you."

……

Sure enough, after returning to K12 for more than a week, Sante still did not contact Ning Bai.

Sant's patrols were more frequent around K12, but since they didn't make any threatening moves, they were safe with K12's army.

Later, Yiluo went to other small planets around to investigate several times. With K12's outstanding mineral resources and technical strength in the border area, interstellar economic and trade cooperation is progressing smoothly.

It didn't take long for K12 to become the economic and trade center of the surrounding planets.

Although those planets did not dare to have any in-depth economic and political cooperation with K12 due to the insect star council, under the guise of private economic exchanges, the exchanges between the upper and lower levels became closer and closer. Ning Bai's army even recruited many people from Young Zerg from nearby planets enlist as recruits.

On the other hand, Ning Bai personally formed a research and development team and started the research and development and design of the sixth-generation mecha.

He became as hardworking as he was when he was promoted to general, leaving early and returning late every day, busy with military affairs during the day, and convening a research and development team to tackle technical problems at night.

But this time Chu An understood him and supported him sincerely.

Their house is small and warm.Every night when Ning Bai pushes the door and comes back, he can see Chu An scrutinizing the article by the window at a glance. There is dinner on the table, and maybe a cup of sweet nectar. Ning Bai usually chooses to eat first, and then with Chu An Take a hot bath together.

Chu An found a copy of "Philosophical Thoughts on Mecha Strategy" written by Ji Shan from the second-hand book market, and gave it to Ning Bai's R&D team as a reference for developing ideas.

He found this book on the old bookstall when he came to K12 for an interview for the first time.At that time, this book was banned on the Zombie Planet, but it was still circulated in the market in the distant K12.

Chu An has always felt that it is difficult to evaluate Ji Shan in absolute terms like "good" or "bad".

Although Ji Shan failed and ended his ambitious life on the wrong path, thanks to his efforts, many Zergs had the enlightenment of equality awareness for the first time, and for the first time examined females and males from a new perspective. Insects, and even a small book on mecha design that he wrote out of his hobby, has made a modest contribution to the development of Ning Bai's sixth-generation mecha today.

And so on for a while.

Yiluo finally remembered the previous agreement, and took Chuan to the mine to observe their automatic mining equipment for crystal ore.

"Mr. Chu An, please bring this first." Yiluo handed the helmet to Chu An, "We have recently reinforced the mine tunnel, but there will still be danger. I know you have a spiritual shield, At least it’s more convenient to wear a hard hat, right.”

"Yi Luo, we are old friends, and you are still so polite to me now." Chu An put on various safety protective gear according to Yi Luo's instructions, and then followed the mine cart and went deep into the depths of the mine.

Not long after, modern excavation and mining equipment came into view. The mechanical device automatically operated in the dark underground, making a rumbling sound, and transported the precious crystal ore shining with unique luster to the outside.

This place was completely different from the harsh mining environment that Chu An had seen in the materials.Here, in addition to checking and repairing faults, miners only need to operate remotely in front of the console on the well, and there is no need to take risks in person.

Even the ferocious black iron beast that used to guard the gate of the mine has now become the pet playmate of the miners. Because of being fed too much, it has become fatter and rounder.

Chu An sighed: "Sure enough, we still need to rely on technological improvement. If we had already had these equipments, Ning Bai's female father would not have passed away in a foreign land."

"In the past, the labor of the miners was not paid reasonably, so the big families who controlled the mines had no incentive to spend money on research and development of new equipment," Yiluo said.

As for the admiral's female father... I have searched for the remains of the admiral's female father near several collapsed mines, but I have never found them. The admiral told me last time that I would not be allowed to look for them again.I plan to erect a monument on the mine to commemorate the miners who died here. "

"Hmm..." Chu An was silent for a while, and asked Yiluo, "Are there any difficulties now?"

"Actually, there are still some," Yiluo said. "The crystal ore is very hard, and the strength of the mining equipment is not strong enough, and it is easy to be damaged during operation. Sometimes I think, if we can add spiritual power to our machinery like you A protective cover would be nice, so you don’t have to worry about bumps and bumps.”

Yi Luo smiled helplessly at Chu An, and said in a joking tone, as if he felt that this idea was too whimsical.

Chu An was stunned, and said to Yiluo: "I think it's ok, let's try it?"

Since spiritual power can be extracted, planted, and able to generate spiritual shields, which can increase the combat capability of fifth-generation mechs, then it seems possible to attach spiritual power to other objects and increase the strength of objects.

Chu An and Yi Luo went to the newly established Science Research Institute of K12 to consult with a mental power expert.

The expert thought for a while, and took out a paper published in a journal some time ago, saying: "There are indeed institutional researches in this area, but because most of the research on mental power is still focused on drug technology, the achievements in this direction Not much, you can refer to this article.”

Because Ning Bai chose to disclose all the technical details of the psychic power medicine, not only many new pharmaceutical factories were built on Zergstar and surrounding planets, but also the research on psychic power was carried out in full swing.

Now the research on the mechanism of mental power is a hot spot in the field of scientific research. Many scientific researchers have devoted themselves to it and made many achievements in various directions.

As Ning Bai once wrote in an article, spiritual power is slowly becoming the source of Zerg's power, not just shackles and pain.

The paper recommended by the experts came from an ordinary university in the insect star. Several young students formed a research group and proposed a technique called "spiritual power coating"——

That is to say, through a certain technical mechanism, the spiritual force is solidified on the surface of the object to form a thin and tough protective film, which can keep warm, keep fresh, prevent radiation, and prevent oxidation without affecting normal use. and many other functions.

The students' research focuses on the preservation of food and daily necessities, and the research methods are a little immature, but Chu An is very interested.

He personally practiced the method proposed in the paper, and then wrote a letter to the research group of the paper, communicating with them the advantages and disadvantages of this technology and the direction of improvement, and expressed the hope that he can cooperate with the research group to study the spirit of industrial equipment force protection.

Along with the letter, there was also a package, which contained gifts from Chu An to the students from the distant K12.

The package was finally delivered to the school after several twists and turns. The students opened the layers of packages and took out a bouquet of fresh and tender golden roses.

The golden pink rose made with the "spiritual power coating" technology seems to still retain the fragrance when it was just picked from the wilderness of K12, retains the wildness and splendor from the new star on the frontier, and exudes the beauty of free and unrestrained wildness.

And this beauty, under the protection of the "spiritual power coating", crossed layers of star seas and came to the young students of the insect star.

The students took out the paper card in the package, with a short message written on it.

"Create a more beautiful future!"

Some students suddenly exclaimed: "I remembered, this is the bouquet of flowers on the cover of the last issue of "New Star"!"

"Keep your voice down!" The classmate held him back and lowered his voice, "Don't let the teacher hear you."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you hear it... The teacher also reads "New Star", and may have contributed to it. Our humble civilian school will not be targeted by the security police."

The young students laughed.

"Then take this as our next topic? However, industrial equipment is so difficult."

"The research funds have been transferred to the account of the research group, do you still want to return it?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Chu An said that they have also organized a research team over there, let's work together for a more beautiful future!"

……

After a period of time, the mining equipment with added mental power shield was finally successfully developed and officially put into production.

Ning Bai was invited to come to the crystal mine. Standing in front of the monitoring screen, he saw that every automated mining equipment in the underground was wrapped in a faint shell of spiritual power, and was agile in the veins deep in the formation. work.

As the excavation distance deepened, some ore fell from the top of the tunnel and hit the roof of the mining equipment.

In the past, some delicate sensors could be affected by shocks or even fail.

But now, the mechanical equipment is unscathed and continues to work in an orderly manner. All the falling ores are bounced off by the mental power shell of the equipment, just like the S-level spiritual power shield that Chu An deployed for Ning Bai when he helped Ning Bai escape from prison. .

Ning Bai was thoughtful.

Yi Luo said: "I plan to install mental power protection devices on other production equipment. According to preliminary research, this kind of mental power shell is not only very strong, but also prolongs the service life of the equipment and reduces the number of repairs..."

"How high can it be?" Ning Bai suddenly asked, "I mean the intensity, how high can it be. How many levels of particle storm can it resist? What about laser bombs?"

Chu An next to him suddenly understood what Ning Bai meant: "You want to equip the mecha with a mental shield?"

"I want to try."

Ning Bai's hair trembled slightly, shining brightly like a crystal mine.

He said: "The mental power enhancement mode of the fifth-generation mecha needs to call on the driver's mental power, and the power is directly related to the driver's level.

But now, our technology can make the mental power work independently of the Zerg individual, so why not directly install the mental power device on the sixth-generation mecha?In this way, all fighters can become A-level and S-level military females! "
