"Jun Gui, Jun Gui!" Li Ruobai even shouted several times but failed to stop Chu Jungui. He watched him roar away with a large team of engineers.
Li Ruobai turned around and looked at Lin Xi and Li Xinyi who were standing there, helplessly spreading their hands.
Lin Xi stretched out his hand, and a holographic projection of the spacecraft appeared in front of him. Then he saw that Chu Jungui was traveling smoothly, and several engineers would be dropped off at every new area. In the blink of an eye, Chu Jungui had already walked around the Swan, looking at every aspect. Hundreds of engineers also received their respective tasks and immediately began to repair the interior.
Seeing Chu Jungui flying back to the cabin door, Li Ruobai greeted him, but before he could speak, the personal terminal dinged, and the task assigned to him had been sent to the terminal.
"You..." Li Ruobai was speechless and wanted to complain, but the task assigned to him was very important and the workload was huge. The key is that he is also responsible for a team of at least 50 engineers, which leaves no time for him.
After seeing the work content, Li Ruobai immediately knew that the problem was serious. He waved directly to Lin Xi and flew out of the cabin. Dozens of engineers were pushing several large supply boxes out of the transport ship and flying to various locations on the outer wall of the Swan under the command of Li Ruobai.
The engineers took out pieces of composite armor plates from the supply box and installed them directly on the outer wall of the Swan. Some areas were seriously damaged and were simply repaired. They also had to dismantle all the repaired areas and replace them with new armor plates.
Li Ruobai flew around the Swan in circles, assessing the damage, and then revised Chu Jungui's plan in real time. The basis of Chu Jungui's judgment was remote scanning combined with battle report data, and mistakes would inevitably be made in subtle details. Li Ruobai is responsible for adjusting the specific plan.
After inspection, Li Ruobai discovered that the Swan was damaged in many more parts than expected, and some of the injuries were more serious than the initial assessment.
The two transport ships carried a total of several thousand square meters of armor plates. It was originally thought that after repairing the damage to the Swan, there would be a lot leftover, which would be just enough to be handed over to Lin Xi in exchange for military honors. Unexpectedly, it was not enough after using them all. Li Ruobai could only prioritize repairing the most serious damage and rack his brains to maximize the effectiveness of these armor plates.
When Li Ruobai watched the engineer install the last armor plate with his own eyes and checked the time, he realized that more than 4 hours had passed unknowingly.
The expected stay on the Swan was only 5 hours. Li Ruobai flew into the Swan and saw Lin Xi sitting quietly in the lobby.
"Where is Jun Gui?" Li Ruobai checked Chu Jungui's status and found that he and Li Xinyi were both in the main brain cabin of the Swan, optimizing the main brain.
After receiving Li Ruobai's query, Chu Jungui automatically returned a task information, showing that there were still 37 minutes and 21 seconds left before the optimization was completed.
This was accurate to the second, and Li Ruobai shook his head helplessly. The workload of main brain optimization can be said to be endless. If you want to achieve the ultimate goal, it may take ten or eight years. Chu Jungui managed the time so well. Counting the time spent on the road, he only gave Lin Xi 10 seconds to say goodbye.
For ten seconds, should I say that Mr. Chu has returned to his generosity?
While he was thinking, Chu Jungui had already returned to the hatch area. While still on the road, he received everyone's mission information and completed it. The repair of the Swan has increased the overall integrity by 5% to 87%. It is quite rare to be able to repair 5 percentage points in just 5 hours.
Chu Jungui greeted Lin Xi and prepared to return to the transport ship. A transport ship has been loaded with empty energy capsules and sailed to the orbital space station ahead of schedule.
"Jun Gui, wait a moment." Lin Xi stopped him.
Lin Xi silently showed the projection of the Swan in front of Chu Jungui, gesturing for him to watch it himself. Chu Jungui looked at it carefully for several seconds and felt that the Swan was in quite good condition and could not find any faults.
But since Lin Xi asked him to read it, he must be dissatisfied with it. Chu Jungui thought for a while and then said: "The problem with the Swan now is that all the main guns have been replaced, but the main brain has not been optimized accordingly. In this way, the overall performance of the main guns can only be said to be passable. After complete optimization, the performance should be improved. 10%. There are also some minor problems, such as the passage floor is not very clean, and some... well, some command staff's cabins are a bit messy..."
"Stop!" Lin Xi immediately stopped him from talking anymore. She gritted her teeth, glared at Chu Jungui fiercely, pointed at the image of the Swan, and said, "Look, what they have done to my starship!"
The Swan was originally made of matte silver, elegant and calm, but Chu Jungui's composite armor was all metallic green, with different shades of green. The test object only looks at the overall performance, how can it care about the appearance and color? The internal material of the large-scale armor plate is not very uniform, which would originally affect the performance. However, Chu Jungui's solution was to directly increase the thickness, which easily solved the problem of defense capability.
After adding these composite armors, the Swan's whole body looked like it had been patched with more than a dozen patches, and it was still in a mosaic pattern.
Chu Jungui thought, and then asked: "It seems a bit ugly, but is this a problem?"
Under Lin Xi's murderous gaze, the test subject finally felt that this seemed to be a problem, and it was quite serious. However, Chu Jungui found the solution in one second, which was to spray black paint on the Swan.
Black overpowers all colors and blends into the sky background, preventing optical detection. Chu Jungui felt that there were many advantages but no disadvantages.
Lin Xi was silent for a moment, then gently pushed Chu Jungui and said, "It's time for you to go."
For painting, there is no need for Chu Jungui's engineers. The Swan has an automatic repair robot and a painting function. Not long after, Black Swan left the orbit of the planet and gradually merged with deep space.
Before leaving, Lin Xi left a dozen large and small beam cannons for Chu Jungui, including even a light cruiser-class main gun. It's just that there is really no place to install it on the Swan, otherwise Lin Xi wouldn't mind if the four main guns fired at the same time.
The rest include two destroyer-class main guns, and the remaining ten or so are various secondary guns. Their combined power is roughly equivalent to that of a destroyer-class main gun.
Although the beam cannon technology in the prosperous Tang Dynasty was relatively backward, it was still seven or eight generations more advanced than the Alpha Cannon in Chu Jungui's hands. Lin Xi knew this very well, so he kept all the unused cannons and freed up the hatch to install more energy cabins.
What Chu Jungui means is that if you really want to add a main gun, you can carry another one on the back of the Swan.
This proposal was flatly rejected by Lin Xi.
