Chapter 436 Plasma Cannon
"Attention, passengers."
"The starship is about to enter the atmosphere of Dawn. During this period, the starship will experience strong turbulence. This is a normal phenomenon. Please do not panic..."
Hearing the broadcast, Hope's expression suddenly became serious.
He checked the seat belt on his seat as soon as possible.
Although the planetary landing technology is very mature, there is basically no possibility of accidents.
But thinking that this is a super-earth with a denser atmosphere and stronger gravity, Hope still subconsciously felt a little uneasy.
...
Facts have proved that his uneasiness is unnecessary.
Perhaps because of the enhanced performance of the starship, Hope did not feel strong turbulence.
Even in Hope's subjective feeling, landing on Dawn seems to be easier and simpler than landing on Proxima b and Ross 154.
After entering the atmosphere, the flight trajectory of Xuannv II gradually stabilized.
Hope, who specially chose a seat by the porthole, naturally curiously put his head next to the porthole and looked around.
There are countless deep or shallow "gullies" on the yellow-brown land.
He could see all kinds of terrain.
Mountains, plains, volcanoes...
Wait?
Volcanoes?
He quickly moved his gaze back.
Looking at the crater below the side of Xuannv II, which was gushing with gurgling red magma, Hope was ecstatic!
That's a mineral gathering place!
I wonder what fresh mineral resources this alien volcano can bring!
Hope thought as he cast his gaze into the distance.
The next moment, his attention was attracted by the azure blue.
There was a piece of azure water on the vast yellow-brown land!
The area of the water was not large, but it still made Hope excited!
It seemed that this planet was not so bad?
Maybe he would have a chance to see the "sea view"?
Thinking of this, Hope's mouth corners slightly raised, and a satisfied smile appeared in his eyes.
Xuannv II flew straight towards the water.
As time passed, a "small" bright white hemispherical building was reflected in Hope's eyes.
That is a closed city on the surface built by humans!
Looking at the extremely familiar building, Hope became more and more excited!
He couldn't help but imagine the scenes in the city in his mind.
Is the city layout still the same as before?
Where will the house he was assigned be?
Is there a food street next to it?
One question after another jumped out of Hope's mind involuntarily.
…
Standing at the exit of Xuannv II, Hope took a deep breath.
Finally, it's here.
His consciousness moved slightly.
Almost without any delay, the exoskeleton armor on his body drove his body to move.
Dong, Dong, Dong.
With heavy footsteps, Hope walked out of Xuannv II.
…
[Earth] No. 1 shipboard laboratory.
"Professor, the test results of the new generation of magnetic field shields and plasma shields are perfect."
Tao Yuda excitedly reported to Lv Yongchang the results of a series of tests conducted not long ago.
Lv Yongchang nodded with satisfaction.
But soon, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about the weapon system?"
"How effective is the newly modified electromagnetic cannon projectile?"
Tao Yuda cast his eyes on Cao Liangcai on the side.
That was the project that Academician Cao Liangcai was in charge of.
"Perfect." Facing the inquiring eyes of Lv Yongchang and Tao Yuda, Cao Liangcai quickly came to his senses and stretched out his hand to drag a holographic image, "At present, the electromagnetic cannon projectile can easily enter and exit the magnetic field shield and plasma shield running at full power."
"And, according to your idea, we added a function to the electromagnetic cannon projectile."
"After launching, we can remotely control the magnetic field shield generation unit inside the projectile, which can generate small magnetic field shields of different intensities and directions."
"It's just... the actual combat effect is unknown."
Cao Liangcai spread his hands helplessly: "If we can't crack the opponent's shield algorithm, this function actually has no effect."
Lv Yongchang didn't care much.
For this kind of additional function, his attitude has always been: I can do without it, but I can't do without it.
What's more, cracking the enemy's shield algorithm is not a useless function. If used well, it can be the killer of the human fleet to decide the outcome of the battle!
"Okay." Lv Yongchang clapped his hands and stretched out his hand to open a brand new holographic image.
"Let's throw the shield technology aside."
"Next, it's time to consider developing a new weapon system."
Cao Liangcai: "???"
Tao Yuda: "???"
The two of them were stunned.
Tao Yuda even reached out to pick his ears, as if he couldn't believe what he heard: "Professor, the new weapon system... is it a bit too fast?"
"According to the civilization level classification mechanism you gave before, we have just entered the third-level civilization."
"This... is too hasty, right?"
Cao Liangcai also echoed: "Yes, professor."
"The construction of the surface of Dawn Star has just begun. Shouldn't we focus on planetary transformation?"
"There are still many people waiting to wake up in hibernation!"
Lv Yongchang didn't speak, but turned his head to look at the porthole in the distance.
Tao Yuda and Cao Liangcai looked at each other, and followed Lv Yongchang's gaze with a puzzled look.
Outside the porthole was the empty universe.
A careful observation revealed that there was a group of small light spots in the vast and deep background of the universe.
These light spots kept a certain distance from the [Earth] and followed the human fleet step by step.
"Dimensional strike ship..."
Tao Yuda's voice suddenly became low.
"Don't forget." Lv Yongchang sighed softly, "The core of [Painting] is still near us."
"We don't know when the Pastoral School it mentioned will appear in front of us."
"We don't even know what attitude the so-called Pastoral School has towards us!"
"In this environment, without powerful weapons as a guarantee, how can we develop other technologies with peace of mind?"
After a brief silence, Tao Yuda and Cao Liangcai turned around and looked at the holographic projection in front of them seriously.
However, the helplessness and pain in their eyes were so strong that they were about to overflow.
As for Lu Yongchang, he sighed in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"The magnetic field shield generation unit has brought me some inspiration for new weapons."
"For a long time, our plasma weapons can only exist in the form of plasma bombs."
"For a second-level civilization, its power is strong enough, but for a third-level civilization, it is obviously not enough."
"Today is different from the past."
"Thanks to the precise control of the magnetic field."
"Further development of plasma weapons can finally be put on the research and development schedule."
"Plasma cannon, a close-range high-power shield-breaking weapon."
