Chapter 3: Another Amazing Database?! [Rewrite]
I want to go home...If it's Star Wars, we can't stand the horrible Star Destroyer...Tang Xiao held his forehead in silence for a long time, and the joy brought by the Kushan Mothership becoming a reality in the game was gone.
"Okay, then, Qi Jian, my Chief of Staff. Now, would you please help me calculate how many Defense Forces we have?" Tang Xiao sorted out his mood and decided to struggle.
Qi Jian immediately entered his role, immediately pushed his hand into the chest and answered: "We have 5 Arrow-class Scouts and 5 Blade-class Starfighters."
Tang Xiao smiled and looked at him. Then, there was an awkward silence. After more than ten seconds, he smiled and said, "Go on, I'm waiting."
"No more...."
* FLLLLRRRRP * Tang Xiao almost sprayed blood on his face, "This fucking Mothership is carrying 650,000 people, but only 5 Scouts and 5 Starfighters to protect it?!"
Qi Jian quickly lowered his head and responded: "I'm sorry, Supreme Commander, the Voyage Log has completely disappeared, so I have no idea what happened during the past voyage. The reality is that we only have these Small Spaceships to protect us."
'Brain, pull up the data and let me see it. Five Starfighters, to protect such a Mothership, this performance must be GUNDAM..." Tang Xiao returned to his seat and said.
In front of the Holographic Projection, there was a Simple and Ugly Triangular Small Spacecraft. The voice of the Brain came, [This is an Arrow-class Scout, 9.5 meters long, no Hyperspace Migration Ability or Atmospheric Combat Ability. It has a maximum acceleration of 100G. It is equipped with Two Primary Mass Driver Cannons, both placed on the left side of the Spacecraft to make room for the afterburner and have a small supply of ammunition.]
Then, the Projection was replaced by a slightly Bulkier Spaceship with a Rectangular Hull, with the Cockpit prostrating out on the right side of the hull and Two Six-Tube Mass Driver Cannons installed in the middle. The Brain continued: [This is a Blade-class Light Starfighter, 11.3 meters long, with no Hyperspace Flight Capability or Atmospheric Combat Capability, a Max acceleration of 85G, and Two Six-Tube Mass Driver Cannons installed.] Tang Xiao's whole body is ORZ...
"Supreme Commander, what's wrong with you?" Qi Jian hurried over to ask.
Tang Xiao slowed down for a long time before coming back, coughing loudly: "That is to say, in addition to these two garbage, we are basically not fortified now, right? Tell me, Brain! Give me an explanation! That's all you have to Colonize?"
[There is no record in the Database of how our Mothership began its Colonization Program, but what is certain is that we had very little and that the Mothership originally had Dock Modules that could have built Cruisers, but the vast Embryo Bank took up most of the space to carry 5 Billion Frozen Embryos. Before the construction of a separate Space Dock, we only have the capacity to produce Starfighters and Transport Spacecraft.]
"What if there is an enemy coming? What should we do? 'Tang Xiao asked, rubbing his forehead.
[According to preliminary scans, no other Habitable Planets within 50 Light-Years of the System exist, so the Colony has minimal security.]
"It's all right, Supreme Commander! We have Huge Spacecraft Data in our Database! 'Qi Jian soothed, with a hint of pride in his voice. "Have you forgotten? It is you who have given us this great honor and made us qualified to board this incomparable Mothership!"
"The Database? Brain, what's in our Database?"Tang Xiao asked back.
[There are many other Spacecraft in the Database, including a Giant Warship with a length of more than 74,000 Meters, but to build these Spacecraft, the Data alone is not enough, and the Scientific Research Department needs to convert the Data into Production Capacity, which requires a lot of time and resources.]
Tang Xiao was moved in his heart and quickly asked: "Show me what kind of Spacecraft?"
Brush, the same Data and items immediately appeared in front of him, leaving him too dizzying. There were Spaceships and all kinds of Data covering people's livelihood, society, culture and other aspects of Science and Technology.
This made him a little curious. His memory of「Homeworld」should not have so many Spacecraft. Even if the「Homeworld」series of several works together, the total count is not more than 100. Where did so many projects come from?
However, just at this time, some familiar figures from Tang Xiao across the eyes...
Wait a minute... a Raven-class Battleship? Minotaur-class Battlecruiser? Kol-class Battlecruiser? Orion-class Assault Carrier? Infinity-class Supercarrier? Seeing these familiar names and familiar looks, Tang Xiao's mouth opened wider and wider, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"What's going on here? This Gorgeous Database...Does this include data from all Space Science Fiction Games?"Tang Xiao murmured.
[To be exact, the author played &&*%$#%$# System error *(^%$$, fixed.] The Brain suddenly makes a noise and then says: [This Data is already in the Database; no other information, including the source.]
"Wait a minute! So the one you say is over 74,000 Metres Long...Really?"Tang Xiao suddenly thought of what, hurriedly found in the list, sure enough, a very gorgeous shape of a Golden Warship appeared in front of his eyes, "...Spear of Adun? Truly the Spear of Adun!! The Protoss's Flagship in「Starcraft」!
[Yes, the Warship's name is the Spear of Adun, and it's 74,550 Meters Long.]
"Can we build the Spear of Adun? What will it take? Tang Xiao was so excited that his voice trembled.
[We cannot build the Spear of Adun now. Even if we can meet the Manpower and Resources requirements, the huge gap in Production Technology makes it impossible for us to build even a small part of it. We need to wait for our Scientific Research Department to analyze and digest the Data of the Spear of Adun before we can start construction.]
Tang Xiao also gave a wry smile, and he immediately figured out that this result was predictable. "Oh, I know. The Science and Technology System of the Protoss is completely different from us, and it is impossible to build such a thing."
"Supreme Commander, what are the Protoss?" Qi Jian asked.
"Nothing. Just filter through the impractical projects and look at what we're able to build now." Tang said, waving his hand.
[The production line on the Mothership can only produce Two Types of Spacecraft, the Arrow-class Scout and the Blade-class Light Starfighter, there is a Small Transport Ship that can transport cargo between the Moon and the Mothership, and the construction of a Larger Spacecraftp requires the construction of a Shipyard. In addition, there are some Production Processes and Technologies closer to our System, the Scientific Research Department should be able to complete the analysis soon, need to list?]
"No, we don't have the space or resources to invest in research right now." Tang Xiao shook his head to re-enter the state, turned to the Civilian Staff and said: "Have the materials on the Mothership been sorted out?"
"It has been sorted out. As the Brain said, our material stock has been much lower than the red line. I just received a message from the Ministry of Agriculture. The vast majority of crops in the Hydroponics Tanks have withered, mainly due to the mechanical failure of the Hydroponics Tanks." A Female Crew Member replied, "So, the best thing is to start landing as soon as possible. We should be able to find food on the Moon."
"Qi Jian, you will arrange for the production of 5 more Arrow-class Scouts and 20 more Blade-class Starfighters. Wake up 20 Pilots and first ensure the basic safety of the Mothership. Then the Transport Spacecraft will be sent down to scout the Moon to determine the landing site and wake up another 50 Marines on standby. What is our Army Equipment?"
"5,000 Assault Rifles, 200 General-Purpose Machine Guns, and 100 Pistols, and that's it." Qi Jian looked at the supplies.
These things aren't even Electromagnetic Weapons. Tang Xiao, unable to cry, waved his hand and said, "Well, at least hunting some ordinary animals and people is enough. You arrange these things as soon as possible."
"Yes!" Qi Jian quickly stood at attention and saluted, then immediately threw himself into work.
"By the way, there is one more thing." Tang Xiao thought for a moment and stopped Qi Jian, "Now, this is the starting point of our journey in this Strange Universe. From now on, we will name this Habitable Moon Dawn! And this will be our new home!"
"Yes! Dawn! This is our new home!" Qi Jian was very excited and saluted heavily.
All the others on the Bridge immediately stood up to salute and then clapped again, sharing their excitement with each other.
Looking at the cheering crowd, Tang Xiao sighed, without any joy on his face, and sat stupidly back in his seat. After experiencing the surprise just now, the mood gradually began to decline. Although he was in the middle of the cheering Command Center, his heart began to wander.
Before crossing, he had just graduated from a good university, ready to be put to work, and was full of longing for everything in life, but now he came to this place... His former life is entirely away from him, and he has to shoulder the burden of Hundreds of Thousands of people.
He did not forget that dream, as well as the "Star Wars" Space Battlefield in the dream, if it is really "Star Wars", then the War that broke out in it can be said to be throughout the scale of the Galaxy, and the people involved in this War may be Billions or Trillions, and the things in his hands are really nothing.
"Is it really "Star Wars"...?" Tang Xiao sighed to himself.
