#672 - Chapter 672 The First Space Force
Currently, the accumulated charged Resonance Crystals have reached 26, and the space station has successfully manufactured 13 sets of small manned spacecraft.
Following the old method, Dongfang Chen allocated these spacecraft to Bartow City.
This batch of spacecraft will be used to equip the 25 special operations team members in the base, in preparation for the upcoming large-scale melee.
Currently, Zhang Yuan Kui's strength has reached the level of the 7th-level Void Realm stage.
Most of the other special operations team members have reached the 6th-level Body Integration stage, with only a few remaining at the 5th-level Deity Transformation stage.
Shen Wengang and Luo Er completed the injection of the gene serum several months ago. Now, Shen Wengang has reached the 4th-level Core Formation stage, while Luo Er has advanced relatively quickly, already reaching the 6th-level Deity Transformation stage.
A small portion of the other sleepers have not been contacted yet, but most have gradually received the message and completed the injection.
However, due to varying lengths of time, their current levels are a mix of high and low. The highest have reached the 5th-level Deity Transformation stage, while the lowest are still at the 1st-level Qi Refining stage.
Overall, everyone's strength is still somewhat low, so Dongfang Chen plans to wait a little longer.
If they were to reveal their hand now, he's worried that everyone wouldn't be able to control the situation.
Currently, the first large space transport spacecraft in the Mars base has been completed.
"Commander, the spacecraft has been produced. Do you want to launch it?"
"First, load all the produced Light Crystal Panels onto the ship."
"Yes, Commander, the order has been issued. It is estimated that it will take 3 hours to complete the loading."
"Now that the spacecraft production bay is empty, begin producing warships."
"Yes, Commander. The task has been issued."
Dongfang Chen has completed the design of the warship during this time.
According to a complete formation establishment, a large attack mothership should be equipped with at least 12 frigates.
The attack mothership designed by Dongfang Chen can be called a small planetary-class space aircraft carrier.
Its size is not very large, with a length of only 1286 meters.
In addition to being equipped with conventional energy shields and main and auxiliary laser cannons, it also carries 200 small unmanned spacecraft and 200 small manned spacecraft.
The shape design is light in the front and heavy in the rear, with an extra-large main laser cannon on each side of the tail.
The mothership has a nuclear capacity of 368 people, of which 200 are combat personnel responsible for piloting the 200 small manned spacecraft. The remaining 168 people are internal crew and service personnel.
The 12 frigates are much smaller, referred to as small planetary-class frigates. They are 231 meters long and have a nuclear capacity of 10 people.
They carry 10 small manned spacecraft, mainly used for combat by internal personnel, executing external missions, and escape.
Once this batch of warships is manufactured, it will become Dongfang Chen's first space force.
Only with this fleet can the safety of the space station be guaranteed to a certain extent.
3 hours later.
"Commander, the transport ship is fully loaded. Do you want to launch it?" Xiao Lin asked.
"Launch."
"Yes, the order has been issued."
"Mars weather is normal, the base exit is opening."
"The transport ship's energy core is activated, and the warship is starting self-inspection."
"Communication signals are normal, all functions are normal, auxiliary thrusters have been activated."
"Countdown 10 seconds, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0."
"The transport ship begins to ascend."
"Power engine activated, main thruster activated."
"Starting to accelerate."
5 minutes later.
"Commander, the transport ship has successfully ascended. Do you want to execute the transport mission now?"
"Begin."
"Yes, the order has been issued."
The successfully launched large space transport ship is like a wild horse off its leash, a fish in water. Under the acceleration of the warp engine, it begins to accelerate at a very high rate and flies towards the sun at extreme speed.
It only takes 12 hours for this transport ship to reach near-solar orbit, which shows how fast it is.
The transport ship is loaded with the Light Crystal Panels needed for 100,000 charging units, and 110,000 Resonance Crystals that were transported to Mars in advance.
Once the construction is completed, it will increase the charging speed of the charging station by 10 times, from charging one crystal every 10 days to one crystal per day.
The increase in the charging speed of the Resonance Crystals will greatly accelerate the construction of small manned spacecraft.
And as the Light Crystal Panels are continuously manufactured, this speed will continue to accelerate.
In short, the faster the charging speed of the Resonance Crystals, the faster the development speed of the space force.
Another 6 months passed.
June 20, 2058 AD.
Zhang Yuan Kui successfully reached the late stage of the 9th level, taking a full 15 months.
This is estimated to be the fastest advancing cultivator on the surface.
The other special operations team members are not far behind, all successfully entering the 9th level, with a few even reaching the mid-stage of the 9th level.
This is all thanks to the high-quality genes provided by Zhang Huishan.
With 26 9th-level cultivator experts sitting in town, who would dare to cause trouble in Bartow City?
