Chapter 973 Preparing for transformation

Hall's ability is definitely trustworthy, because Alyssa knows Perla, and she can't let a rookie be her chief pilot.

As for loyalty?

Recyclers don't require loyalty, they only require dedication. You just need to complete the task I give you.

So Alyssa didn't hesitate and nodded and agreed.

She is indeed short of people now.

Li Chengxi, who was watching the whole process, was a little happy. He didn't expect that he actually had a fan girl.

But then again, I don't know what expression Hall had on his face when he found out that the pilot she was looking for was Li Chengxi...

In short, even if this matter is settled, the Swan needs to stay in the royalist base for repairs, which will take a few days.

Especially when the royalists showed Alyssa a list of repairs, she could feel that it would definitely not be done in a day or two.

Only after the Swan is repaired can we continue to chase the starship. During this time, everyone can only squat in the royalist base and move freely.

Li Chengxi looked at the situation of Viola and Yang Yiyi, confirmed that there was nothing else, and yawned and went back to catch up on his sleep.

Everyone started the action at midnight, which was four o'clock in the morning on Li Chengxi's side. He had to get up early, and now that there was nothing to do, he went back to sleep.

After all, he was not going to work.

When he opened his eyes again, it was almost noon. He went to the bathroom to wash up, came back and sat on the sofa to think about what takeout to eat for breakfast and lunch.

Just at this time, Gan Xiaoyan called.

In fact, it was nothing big. It was just that the organization behind Rachel who was captured by Li Chengxi before, it seemed to be called Starlight Academy, sent someone to negotiate with Section 9 to try to redeem Rachel.

This matter must be handled by Section 9 as a national representative, but the person was captured by Li Chengxi. As a sign of respect, of course, we have to ask Li Chengxi's opinion to see if he wants to be present during the negotiation.

Li Chengxi was of course not interested in such trivial matters. He just told Gan Xiaoyan the result and told me.

The matter of the last visit to the Lei family has been settled, but it seems that the aftermath has not yet subsided. Anyway, the Ninth Department is following up, and Li Chengxi just wants to hear the result.

After hanging up Gan Xiaoyan's phone, Lei Lei called again immediately.

Similarly, it was nothing serious, just a simple chat, and by the way, the matter of Lingbao Tiangong.

It is said that the restoration of Lingbao Tiangong is going smoothly, but it will take at least until after the New Year to be repaired, so Lei Lei can't come back for the time being, and can only squat in her hometown and help repair Lingbao Tiangong.

It's really miserable. Lei's family doesn't even have electricity, let alone the Internet. Lei Lei has to run out first to call Li Chengxi. This kind of environment makes Li Chengxi, who has adapted to modern life, go crazy in less than three days.

At the end of the call, Lei Lei told Li Chengxi to be careful. Lei Lei had also heard about Rachel's situation. Compared with official organizations like the Nine Departments, Lei Lei looked at the problem from a more personal perspective. She was more worried that the Starlight Academy behind Rachel would come to Li Chengxi for this. Even if they did it openly, it would be a headache to make trouble in secret.

Li Chengxi agreed readily, but he didn't think so.

Come if you want. At worst, I can fly to Europe in my physical body and give him the hometown of Starlight Academy.

–--——---——

After eating some takeout in a hurry, Li Chengxi sat back in the space capsule.

Because the computer was not turned off when he took a nap, the screen still showed the secret base of the royalists. A group of people had just moved the Swan to the dock of the shipyard. Now they were performing a ceremony to appease the machine spirit and were preparing to start disassembling the engine for repair.

I have to say, every time I see them holding an incense burner and burning incense to pray and appease the machine soul, it feels so strange...

Alyssa helped the royalists find the princess, which is the most important righteousness for the royalists. Although the princess has not woken up yet, it is enough to be alive.

This is very important, and the royalists are very grateful to Alyssa.

Of course, this kind of gratitude will not just stay in words.

The royalists wanted to pay a large sum of money to Alyssa at first, but then they thought that a large amount of money flow might make the rebels of the Red Maple Republic aware of it. After all, the royalists are now in a latent state, and it is not the time to revive the royal family.

Since the funds are not available, they will express their gratitude directly in terms of materials.

All the materials in the entire base, Alyssa will take whatever she wants, and she will never say no.

And they also came up with a detailed plan for the repair of the Swan.

After the engine is repaired, the royalists plan to replace the Swan with lighter and more defensive armor plates, and then install a suspension device.

This is a special device that allows warships to fly in the atmosphere.

Originally, the Swan had no ability to fly in a gravity environment. It is said that after the transformation, it can directly break through the atmosphere alone, from a light cruise ship to an assault landing ship.

However, after entering the atmosphere, it is more troublesome to return to the void, and it needs a boost to break free from the constraints of gravity.

In addition to these two most obvious transformations, the royalist engineers also listed dozens of large and small upgrade and transformation plans, which surprised Alyssa.

The Swan, a second-hand ship, has not been in service for a long time, but it is a retired warship after all. It is normal to have a performance gap with the active warships, not to mention compared with the top warships of the same tonnage.

But warships are not something you can just build casually. A warship may be in service for decades. In order to facilitate upgrading and transformation during service, all regular army warships have reserved a lot of upgrade space at the beginning of their design, and the Swan is no exception.

It's just that this warship is used as a reward for the champion of the Magic Mecha Competition, and it has not been upgraded and transformed along with other Storm Kingdom warships.

Now, the royalists said that we will install the latest, most stable and best-used technologies for you.

This exaggerated transformation without regard to cost will greatly improve performance. It is expected that after the transformation is completed, the Swan will be able to fight against high-speed destroyers that are two levels higher than itself with the tonnage of a light cruiser.

At the same time, the royalist engineers are also very perceptive.

They opened the hangar and saw that the hangar that can accommodate six aircraft only had the Manta and Silver Tornado (Zaku 2 exploded by itself), so they immediately pulled in four space fighters for their own use.

And one of them is a powerful model that is still in the experimental stage.

The test aircraft was also built without regard for cost. Generally, the space fighter is a mass-produced model that is stable and has performance cut to reduce costs.

The most advanced technology was directly used.

The cost of this set of modifications, plus the value of the space fighter, is definitely not a small amount. It is more than enough to build another Swan, not to mention that many things in it are not something you can buy with money.

The only thing that Alyssa is not satisfied with is that after this set of modifications, when can it be shipped out of the port...
