Dawn Mothership.
"Money is just a number to me now..." Lu Yuan had just received a large sum of money from Turians after signing the contract, and it was inevitable that he would be in a good mood to show off! "What the hell?! Increase your salary? You What a dream! Don’t even think about becoming a rich man!” Upon hearing about the wage increase, the capitalist’s face suddenly came back.
"Ah~" After hanging up the communication, Lu Yuan stretched his body happily. Sure enough, after all the chess pieces were thrown into the chessboard, I suddenly felt relaxed.
This is dock number four. On a platform made of scaffolding at the end of the dock, Lu Yuan set up a recliner and lay on it holding a laptop. There were many holographic screens floating around his body, and Ms. Dawn was reporting to him the progress of the Dawn Mothership in real time. Of course, there is also red wine, cigars, fruits and snacks - after all, it is his vacation time.
It's just that other people go to beautiful tourist attractions on vacation, but Lu Yuan chooses to stay at the No. 4 dock all the time, staring at the new ship he is building.
From the planning after capturing the Mona warship...to the secret battle of Ilim to force the exchange of Asari and Turian warship information; to using the Star Alliance as a testing ground to test the advantages and disadvantages of the new warship; and then the analysis The technology of a generation of Prothean civilization was obtained, and particle weapon technology was obtained; finally, from Ai Ziyou’s memory, the nutrients of the Reapers and previous civilizations were absorbed, and the combat performance against the Reapers was fully optimized. At this point, Lu Yuan’s special The spaceship finally broke away from the drawing and turned into the shape of a keel on the dock.
The skeleton of the spaceship stood in the middle of the entire dock. In addition to the arched main keel on the central axis, there are also layers of converging ribs built horizontally like human ribs. Curved at the front and tightened at the rear, the entire ship now looks like a giant knight's shield.
Yes, this ship completely abandoned the long spindle shape of the axial layout of mainstream battleships, and chose a shield shape with the central axis completely erected. (Lao Lei has no talent for warship design. In terms of appearance, please refer to eve. For the Emma prophecy class, I uploaded pictures related to the work.
This layout is more aggregated though. Capable of accommodating larger sized Mass Effect cores. But correspondingly, because the front-to-back distance is too short, it is impossible to install a high-power mass effect field main gun. In the world of Mass Effect, almost all spaceships are arranged in a long and narrow spindle shape. This is true whether it is a cargo ship or a cruise ship - even if I can't actually install the main gun, I still have the heart to want to install the main gun... right.
But from the very beginning, this ship seemed to have completely abandoned the possibility of transforming it into a battleship in the future...
The inability to install a mass effect main gun is probably the first impression everyone will have when seeing this ship. This is what Lu Yuan wants... even though he has a construction license for the cruiser. But, sorry, if he really builds a cruiser and sails out, he will immediately become a wanted criminal in the Citadel! And looking at a battleship, unless you are a Citadel Ghost, there is no place to dock in the entire galaxy! Trust me...it's true. No one wants to see a battleship arrive at their doorstep.
The only people who can own battleships in a private capacity, except maybe ghosts, are pirates...
This vertically oriented spacecraft will be built like a work of art. Although it is still in a keel state, it has been registered as a cruise ship in the Star Alliance and Eden Star-this will also be the main cover identity of the exclusive warship in the future. And they wouldn't know that a few months after the Citadel was attacked, the Turians used the remaining Reaper technology to develop a super main gun for small ships-the Senix Magnetic Hybrid Cannon! After that, all small-sized warships will enter the era of non-axial layout...
But Lu Yuan's purpose is not here - because in fact, compared to the main gun, the magic tower is the most important to this ship!
Yes... this will be a super magic battleship with a mass of over 50 million tons!
The axial height of this ship is less than 500 meters long. The reason why the half-moon-shaped spacecraft, which is less than 200 meters long from front to back, has such a huge mass (even more than the Dreadnought-class, which is twice its size) is entirely because of the metal it uses... When you look closely, you will find that the keel of the ship is Etched with fine magical lines, it looks like the most beautiful and complex flower in the world.
Moreover, the weight of the entire keel is dozens of times that of steel, and it exudes a faint dark golden light - the entire keel, which is tens of thousands of meters long, is completely made of giga-level titanium-iridium fine gold alloy, this dreamlike alloy. !
The three-layer mirror-type moving shield-type main armor plate that will form the ship's frontal defense in the future is made of Dawn's other super magic metal, nickel-titanium mithril alloy! This alloy has an extremely light mass, is resistant to extreme high temperatures, and has the smoothest mirror surface in the world - beam weapons (lasers, particle beams, positrons, etc.) will be unable to do anything to this mirror surface.
The third piece that uses a lot of magic materials is Lu Yuan's magic tower.
The materials used in these three parts will consume all the magical materials looted from the world of Baldur's Gate for countless years!
As for the rest... Do you still remember the conventional magic alloy formula analyzed by the psychic battleship from the Mona people? In addition to the keel, armor and magic tower, the main alloy of the ship is this regular magic alloy.
The main ingredient in the alloy is an isotope of titanium metal, which can only be found inside red giant stars that are on the verge of cooling and giant gaseous planets. Galaxies that meet these two conditions are obviously those that are at the edge of the Milky Way and have reached the end of their lifespan.
In such a galaxy, radiation turbulence is everywhere, and the stars in their twilight years are more like huge explosive bags - Lu Yuan will not let his crew take unnecessary risks - the hard-working OSS Saren is leading With the "Overlord" Reaper and the Black Geth, mining in this environment. Little did he know that the robots and battleships he had worked so hard to acquire were already obsolete before he even started...
And before they left, Lu Yuan was already planning to return the territory to the Quarians.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard! Take a half-day break in the afternoon." Lu Yuan said.
After hearing his words, the geth and engineers who were building the warship put down their work and left the dock in twos and threes. A month ago, everyone was cheering for only working half a day - but after a month of this, the staff have become accustomed to this rhythm.
They could probably guess that the captain wanted to be left alone to do something that he didn't want others to see, and it probably had to do with those strange patterns that suddenly appeared.
Half of the shipbuilding work has been completed, and Lu Yuan has more and more work. The first thing is that when laying the keel, he needs to engrave magic patterns on the keel that conduct magic power - you must know that it is magic-resistant fine gold and extremely hard giga-level material! Lu Yuan didn't know how many ways he had thought of before he could really do this.
Then there is the placement of the Mass Effect Core - a huge core obtained from the Overlord-class Reaper, and four smaller cores, which form the Tantalus Core of the ship!
And Lu Yuan happened to install his magic tower at the center of the four mass effect cores... a position that normal people could not even reach. It was precisely in this area where various field effects were chaotic that Lu Yuan deployed his magic tower, and successively built the arcane garden, the folding space, the magic pool, the portal connected to the Dawn, the detection room, and the secret-keeping room. Room, mechanical intelligence core, pure water element pool, library...etc.
Don't look at the space there, which is less than a thousand cubic meters. After Lu Yuan integrated "Elona's Ring" to form a new folded space. The entire magic tower is actually made up of nine connected but independently floating pieces of land! And below the suspended land is the sea that seems to have no edge... The area of each piece of land is much larger than the fragrant hanging garden. The smallest piece is the size of one and a half football fields.
If the living supplies for the entire spacecraft were stored here, they would probably be used forever! Because there is a complete ecological circle here, with all kinds of plants growing everywhere, irrigated by pure water from the water element plane, livestock and animals are raised on it, and the materials produced are enough to meet the needs of thousands of people.
As for ordinary military supplies, such as missiles and torpedoes, they can be directly loaded into containers and hung on the outside of the land without taking up mainland space.
This magic tower is not like the magic tower built with virtual images inside the Dawn. This one has much more comprehensive functions.
Now these secrets will only be revealed to trustworthy people - they are a higher level of confidentiality than Dawn.
*****
Three curved shell-shaped armor plates with an area of several hundred square meters are installed on the spacecraft in sequence.
With construction, the interior details of the spacecraft have gradually emerged. The curved armor plate is similar to a visor and can be set in two modes: gold and transparent. When set to transparent mode, most of the lower part of the spacecraft can be seen with layers of landscape hotels, large swimming pools and observation decks, as well as various entertainment facilities. The upper part is completely enclosed and one-way transparent. It is said to be an exclusive room reserved for the captain and his confidante.
When I think of sitting in front of the transparent armored window with no edge visible, holding a glass of wine in my hand, looking at the changing nebulae, the bright stars, or the various planetary landscapes in the universe, what a pleasure it will be... This may be The most exclusive hotels and cruise ships in the galaxy.
Little did he know that everything in front of him was an illusion. The rooms and various furniture were all made of nanomaterials. With just one word of command, he could transform into a murderous battleship in five minutes!
What to do without a main gun?
The main gun... has never been a problem! (To be continued)
