Chapter 674 Star Destroyer [Suzaku]

One month later.

Wang Man anxiously looked at the red warning sign in the holographic projection.

Although the allocation of computing power has been adjusted to zero and more computing power invested in mineral mining and smelting as much as possible, it still cannot change the situation that the fleet's basic metal resources cannot make ends meet.

While starship factories and mega-structure projects are slowing down as much as possible, the fleet's base metal resource reserves are still falling toward the lowest warning line.

"drop!"

A crisp tone came from the speaker, breaking the silent atmosphere in the office.

"Academician Wang Man, there is a message from the Starship Factory."

"Special order manufacturing progress: The Star Destroyer [Suzaku] has been assembled and is undergoing factory inspection."

"Okay!" After hearing the news, the depression on Wang Man's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a smile full of hope and relief.

He untied the electromagnetic adsorption device, stood up and walked around the office several times.

Then, he reached out and opened a document in the holographic projection and checked it carefully again.

After confirming that there were no mistakes, he said in a deep voice:

"Zero, help me contact Professor Lu. [Suzaku] is about to be completed and the fleet is ready to mine!"

"receive!"

After the electronic synthesizer sounded, Wang Man opened the information about the Star Destroyer [Suzaku] with some excitement.

Looking at the gorgeous fiery red lines, there was a hint of intoxication in his eyes.

In the case of severe shortage of basic metal resources, in order not to affect the progress of other projects, most of the manufacturing raw materials of [Suzaku] come from the remanufacturing of old starships.

But this does not affect the domineering and arrogant appearance of [Suzaku]. Likewise, it does not affect the structural strength of [Suzaku] itself.

Just like its name, the Star Destroyer [Suzaku] is like a big bird flying high, with an aura of nobility all over its body.

There was a faint aura of destruction and violence in the huge gun barrel that penetrated most of the ship's body.

Similar to the [Battering Ram], the Star Destroyer [Suzaku] also has one main gun.

Moreover, this main gun also occupies most of the space of the ship body.

Of course, there is a big difference between the two - the instantaneous output power of the former is far inferior to that of the latter.

In the simplest terms, the Star Destroyer Cannon can be reused, while the Battering Ram is a disposable weapon.

In addition, the Star Destroyer [Suzaku] is equipped with a large number of defense modules and high-power warp engines.

According to the design of the academicians of the Academy of Sciences, in peacetime, the main function of [Suzaku] is mining, but in wartime, especially for those civilizations that stick to the planet, [Suzaku] will be an extremely lethal weapon!

Of course, the basic method of both is the same, which is to detonate the planet.

"bite!"

The crisp message tone sounded again, interrupting Wang Man's thoughts.

He glanced over his shoulder.

It's information from Professor Lu.

There were only two words in the message.

"approve."

…

The time to "take action" on Kepler 452c is set in half a month.

On the one hand, the Star Destroyer [Suzaku] still needs to undergo several factory inspections. On the other hand, the fleet needs to deploy some of the updated planet-class starships to cooperate with this unprecedented mining project.

These require a lot of time to prepare.

Time flies.

Under Zero's control, the newly launched planetary-class [Golden Crow] battleships and [Taotie] material reserve ships slowly left the fleet, and were driven by anti-matter engines to the vicinity of Kepler 452c.

This poor iron planet does not know what is about to happen. It is still quietly orbiting the central star as it has been for billions of years.

And around it, the [Golden Crow] battleships are ready to go. Just waiting for an order, a cage built by gravity can be generated to tightly bind it inside!

Wang Man sat quietly on the chair in the office, looking at the small gray planet outside the porthole window.

Uh-huh.

The sound of the office door opening came from behind.

"Old Wang."

Hearing this familiar voice, Wang Man showed a faint smile: "Lao Tang, you are here too."

"Nonsense!" Tang Hairong sat down on the chair next to Wang Man and said angrily, "Can I let such a spectacular scene go?"

As he spoke, he turned around and looked around, then lowered his voice slightly and asked, "Lu...Isn't Professor Lu here?"

Wang Man stared at the gray planet in the distance and nodded slightly: "Yes."

"I heard that tachyon communication technology is about to achieve a breakthrough. Professor Lu is leading people on the Earth to conquer this technology."

"hiss!"

Tang Hairong took a slight breath and exclaimed with a look of horror on his face: "So fast?!"

"How long has it been?!"

"It's not that short." Wang Man shrugged, "At least, for Professor Lu, tachyon communication technology takes a long time."

The corners of Tang Hairong's mouth twitched, revealing a wry smile.

He shook his head and sighed helplessly: "That's right."

"Under normal circumstances, this amount of time would have been enough for Professor Lu to come up with two research results, but now he has not solved even one."

"This tachyon communication technology is really difficult!"

"Oh, by the way, you are wrong about that." Wang Man shrugged and corrected softly, "The [Suzaku] Star Destroyer was created by Professor Lu."

"So, strictly speaking, he did make a research result."

The bitter smile on Tang Hairong's face froze instantly.

"This..."

"God, it's just a god..."

Listening to Tang Hairong's repeated exclamations, Wang Man's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

Suddenly, the smile on his face gradually froze, and his eyes became sharper.

His eyes focused on a point far away outside the porthole.

Looking at the looming red, he excitedly untied the electromagnetic adsorption device on his seat, stood up and lay down beside the porthole of the starship.

"Hey! Blocking my view!"

Tang Hairong's unhappy voice came from behind: "I said, can you..."

"Here it comes!"

Wang Man's voice was full of excitement and excitement: "[Suzaku] is here!"

Tang Hairong's complaints stopped abruptly.

A flustered voice came from behind.

A few seconds later, Tang Hairong also stood by the porthole, holding a corner of the porthole with his hands, and put his head as close to the porthole as possible, looking at the scene in the distance.

"Ding!"

"Academician Wang Man, Academician Tang Hairong."

"The first planetary mining project is about to begin, please pay attention to safety when watching the process."

As Zero's electronic synthesized voice sounded behind him, the scene outside the porthole began to gradually change.
