Vol 22 Chapter 523: remote control

"Then, designate me as the captain now. Hurry and take us out of the port. We will pursue the enemy."
"The order was accepted, but it couldn't be executed." The answer from the intelligent core made us almost carry a big heel.
"What does it mean that order acceptance cannot be executed? You should execute the order if you accept it!" Apana obviously didn't know much about this kind of core, so she asked very surprised.
The intelligent core quickly responded: "The order is issued by the correct commander with legal authority, so the order is acceptable and must be accepted, but the order itself is beyond the capabilities of the ship and therefore cannot be executed."
"Moving a warship is beyond your ability?" I asked in surprise. "Aren't you an unmanned warship? Can't even move?"
"Of course, this ship has a mobile function, but it cannot be done now."
"Why?"
"The reserve energy is zero and it is almost impossible to maintain the core operation. In three minutes and fifteen seconds, the core will be dormant due to energy exhaustion."
"I rely! Where is the energy input?" I asked directly.
"Please follow the instructions." A huge green arrow suddenly appeared above our heads, and this thing actually followed me. No matter what direction I turned, this arrow was always floating one meter in front of me and two meters from the ground. High location and currently it always points to the big doorway of this room.
Now that there are clear instructions, it's simple. We quickly ran out of the door, and as we moved, the arrow suddenly jumped out of the door as we approached the door and pointed in one direction of the corridor. After we came out, the haircut immediately jumped to the fork in front and pointed to the fork on the left.
With this super convenient pointing arrow, we found the energy storehouse in less than a minute. At this location there is a large room with a set of quite complicated machines. There is a small gate on the side of the machine facing the gate, about the size of a monitor. After pushing the gate according to the instructions, we saw an empty interior space. This space may only have the capacity of an extra-large refrigerator, but this thing is not used to refrigerate food. This is the inlet of the magic crystal extractor, which is the temporary storage of magic crystal.
"Who have you brought the magic crystal?" The low-level magic crystal on my body just ran out, and now the rest are all high-end goods. These high-end magic crystals are obviously a waste of energy to fill this equipment, so I want to see if others bring them.
Fortunately, the magic power of Christina's turret is exaggerated. So sometimes you need to use some magic crystals to supplement the magic. Naturally she would carry some magic crystals on her body. Of course, she mostly uses high-grade goods, but there are some low-level magic crystals.
Quickly threw all the magic crystals from Christina into this inlet, and immediately when the gate closed, we heard a roar of machine startup. Immediately afterwards the entire room lit up.
Previously, when Kristina used energy shock to start that core, it was equivalent to inputting a small amount of energy for that core. Although this core is not very easy to use. However, it has done very well in its own management, and even has a built-in power saving mode. Just the point of energy that Christina rushed into before, if the warship was fully activated. I guess it's too late to tell us a few words and it's going to be off again. However, this core has an energy management function, so when it is found that the total energy is below the minimum standard, only the core is activated, and no other equipment is managed, which is why the warship cannot move.
Now that the magic crystal filler has been entered, the energy crisis is temporarily resolved, and at this time the battleship is completely resurrected. All kinds of internal machinery are activated, and the lights in the cabin light up.
"Core, check the energy reserve." I asked after the machine started, mainly to see the energy demand of this thing. There are obviously not many magic crystals just now. Although our guilds currently do not use magic crystals directly as a source of energy, we have used a lot of magic crystals as fuel before, so I am very Clearly, the words of this magic spar on those warships in our guild will not last long.
Sure enough, the intelligent core responded directly: "The current energy reserve is 0.5 thousandths, and the cruising time can be maintained for 15 hours without activating tactical functions."
"Sure enough, too!" Christina took out a golden magic crystal and hesitantly asked me, "or else put this in?"
"Even if you want to use it, you can't use that advanced level!" I asked helplessly: "Core, tell me if you can only fill magic crystals here?"
"No, in theory, any substance with a lot of magic energy can be filled in, but the ship's energy conversion furnace is not very capable of removing impurities. Therefore, if the energy substance with excessive impurities is used, the conversion furnace may stop working. . "
"So if the energy substance is liquid?"
"There is no problem with liquid energy or gaseous energy. This ship uses a universal converter. All energy types can be used. However, gaseous energy needs to pay attention to the sealing problem when filling the inlet."
The main reason I want to ask this is because I still have a lot of liquefied magic crystal steam. This thing is a purified magic crystal transformant. In theory, it has fewer impurities than magic crystal and is more suitable for transformation. . At present, except for solar furnaces on our guilds, they are basically replaced by power systems using liquefied magic crystal steam as energy, because this energy is relatively stable and easy to control the output. After liquefaction, we can control the concentration, and The purity of magic crystals has always been very unstable, so compared to magic crystals, magic crystal vapors obtained after liquefaction are obviously better controlled.
"It's really easy to use the equipment." I said, just opened the feed port again, then took out a tank of liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank, and then directly opened the valve to point it at the feed port and let Kris Tina uses a magic shield to form a closed protective cover around the inlet. Prevent vaporization of liquefied magic crystal vapors. You must know that the reason why the liquefied magic crystal steam is called liquefied steam is because this thing is gaseous at normal temperature. So, if there is no restriction, once I open the valve, the liquefied magic crystal steam will probably fill the whole room soon.
In this way, we quickly filled half a bottle of liquefied magic crystal steam into the feed port, and after resealing, I asked about the reserve situation again.
"Captain, the energy substance you just used has a very high energy level, and almost no impurities can be found. It is a very good energy substance. The current energy reserve of this ship is 183.79 per thousand. Energy reserve A substantial increase. "
"It looks like you have a lot of energy reserves." I said and poured in the remaining half. I haven't installed all of them before because I worry that adding too much capacity will cause bad results. Then don't worry about it.
We were all back in the control room after the energy filling was completed. Of course, this control room refers to the cabin located at the top of the island, not the room where the core is located.
After arriving here, I asked the warship to move again. This time there was no problem. After several advances and reversing, the warship moved out of the piled up fleet. And it's very fast. Obviously, driving skills are much better than someone's operation. This is actually the advantage of mechanical systems. Although it is very problematic to deal with things that require brainpower, artificial intelligence has advantages for things that are just a little more troublesome.
After quickly moving out of the position, the battleship moved from the port on the shore to the half of the port when we entered. Because the underwater entrance was right here, but when we got here, the warship suddenly started sinking, scaring us into a hurry to prepare for diving. For example, Real Red and Radamantis are better. Just put down the helmet mask. The key is Kristina and gold coins. You need to apply a water avoidance spell to yourself to move underwater.
Although this warship looks like a surface ship, it is not surprising that this thing can really dive, and its performance is not worse than that of a conventional submarine. Instead, it is a very bull fork. At least the submarine movement speed just now is very fast. Otherwise, it will not make us senior staff mess up because of waterproof work. It's really that this thing dives too fast, and we have already poured in the reaction water before we even came.
What? Why do you say we have water in the cabin? Did you forget that the cockpit door was demolished by the Russians? How can a doorless cabin be waterproof?
If such a thing was a normal smart battleship, it would definitely be asked in advance. After all, the first step of the warship's self-checking system is definitely to check the integrity of the shell, and it is obviously wrong to ask the operator without knowing that the hatch is missing. However, the above is only a guess under normal circumstances. The key issue is that this structured battleship is obviously a product of the ancient Atlantis, and the Atlantis are the Mermaids. The mermaid itself can survive in the sea with its own body, so whether the hull leaks is not a problem for them at all. In fact, when these warships were used in those years, many warships were not closed even in submarine mode.
Magic machines are not the same as those electrical appliances built by humans in the real world. Magic devices are not afraid of water at all, because water is actually very poor at transmitting magic power, which means that for magic, water is an insulator. Because of this characteristic, the magic machine is completely afraid of water. Even if it is soaked in water, it can operate normally, and it will never fail due to problems such as electricity leakage. This coupled with the fact that the mermaids do not need to live in the air, so even their diving warships often sail with open doors.
It is precisely because Atlantis's people are marine creatures that this intelligent core has no response to the flooding of the cabin, because this core seems to be a normal thing in this core. It is completely unnecessary. remind.
Of course, although these warships are capable of sailing and fighting under the condition of being completely filled with water, usually they will remain dry inside when diving. This behavior is not for the purpose of maintaining the ship, but for combat performance. After all, the high density of water will make the transmission of explosion shock waves easier, so under the tree, the shock wave is much more lethal than in air. therefore. If the cabin door is open and the cabin is full of seawater, in case any explosives explode near the hull, the sturdy hull may not be a big deal, but the people in the cabin may suffer. If an ordinary torpedo fails, everyone in the cabin will be killed. Conversely, if the cabin is sealed during navigation and the door is closed, then if something explodes near the hull, the shock wave will be absorbed by the hull of the hull and then passed to the air inside the cabin. When the shock wave was re-conducted to the personnel via air, the power had dropped a lot. The damage will naturally decrease significantly.
In fact, in addition to the cause of damage control, there is another point for sailing performance. Enclosing the cabin and filling the ship with air will reduce the overall mass of the warship. In this way, the inertia will decrease when sailing, and the natural movement performance will be greatly improved. Not only save power and energy. The flexibility during navigation will also be greatly improved. and also. A person's resistance in the air will be much lower than the resistance in the water. Therefore, if the cabin is full of water, the movement of the operator will inevitably slow down, which will undoubtedly further reduce the performance of the vessel. the last point. When the hull is completely sealed, a whole will be formed. At this time, the advantages of fluid mechanics will be brought into play. If the hatches are open, the battleship filled with water will not have any hydrodynamic modeling, resistance. Will be multiplied many times. This situation naturally affects tactical performance.
For these reasons, in most cases, these constructed warships will still dive after the hatch is closed. It is only because of the special attributes of the Atlantis that the intelligent core will not go even if the hatch is not closed. Remind, because he thinks this is not a big deal. Anyway, there is a special drainage device on this battleship. Even if the interior is filled with water, you can always close the hatch and pump out the internal water if you want.
Although this two-goods intelligence did not remind us in time, fortunately, the method of waterproofing is not very troublesome, and everyone is fast, so finally no one is holding the water.
Staying in the bridge of a diving warship is obviously not the same as taking a submarine. The submarine is basically a big stuffy tank. Anything outside is basically obscured with two eyes. Even if there is a window, you can't see how far it is. However, diving warships are different. The observation window in the front of the cockpit of this gadget seems to use special magic imaging technology. Looking out from this bridge, we can clearly feel that the underwater environment has become very clear. We can not only see that the straight distance from the bridge is more than The bow of 400 meters can even extend the line of sight around 500 meters forward.
It is possible to have an observation distance of close to one thousand meters under water, which is not something that can only be done with good eyes. Water obstructs the light much better than air. In addition, here is the deep ocean, the water depth is very large, and the surroundings are dark. There is no lighting equipment on this battleship, and there is such a line of sight. It is really a very good design.
Of course, although this design is very practical and looks good, this principle is not complicated at all. We all know that there is a kind of magic called water mirror, which can be used as a monitor in addition to super mirrors. Using water mirroring with some remote observation magic, such as the eyes of a wizard, you can directly see what is happening far away. Obviously, the observation window inside the bridge is using constant water mirror technique, so we can see the situation outside. And although what we see seems to be the picture seen from here, in fact these are the images that magically transmitted the distant images to the water mirror, as if all the windows of this bridge are actually displays, It's just that they are all connected to a remote camera, so it looks like we can see the outside picture, but it is just a virtual situation constructed by magic images, not that we really see that place. Of course, because this is the effect of real-time transmission, although it is not that far we can really see it, there is no problem in commanding operations and heading.
Thanks to this thoughtful design, we can clearly see the surrounding environment within the bridge. This has brought great benefits to our command. In fact, there are other observation methods on the ship that can provide more Long distance observation.
In fact, in naval battles, whether on the surface or underwater, they rarely rely on vision to fight directly. After all, whether it is in-game or out-of-game, the range of weapons on the battleships that everyone uses now far exceeds our range of vision, so using eyes is obviously not suitable for controlling battles. In the game. We mainly use several methods, one is magic induction, the other is sonar, and the third is third-party investigation.
Magic induction is similar to radar, but it is not the same as real-world radar. The active sensing range of this thing is very small, but the passive sensing distance is extremely long. However, unlike real-life radar, this gadget cannot be accurately located, and can only be used for conceptual investigation, that is, to tell you which direction someone is, and how far away it is, the other can not be sensed.
Sheng Na is also divided into two parts in the game. Active spawning is not an instrument in the game. It's achieved with living things. There are many Warcraft and intelligent creatures with sonar positioning ability in the game. And most of these Warcraft can be captured as a magic pet. As for those intelligent marine races, as long as they have a good relationship, they can be hired as biological creatures. As for passive creatures, they are actually underwater listeners. Because the sound travels farther underwater than in the air. Therefore, using a directional underwater listener, you can find the sound of large ships and capture the position of the other party in advance.
The last third party investigation is actually only used by our guild. Its representative existence is the leading ship of our guild. The pilot ship itself does not have much firepower. Its own displacement is not large, but it is equipped with large battleship-level thrusters and the best optical observation equipment and crystal communicator. Its role is to detect targets in advance. Then use triangle positioning to confirm the relative position of the target and the fleet, and then guide the main fleet to conduct beyond-horizon attacks outside the line of sight.
This structured battleship is obviously also equipped with dedicated underwater detection equipment, and may be very powerful, because this gadget found several fleeing submarines ahead when we left the port tunnel.
In fact, we have delayed a lot of time in order to start this warship, so the opponent should have run far away within this time. The reason we insisted on chasing is mainly because we can still contact Yamamoto's 55th crystal communicator, so we can do simple positioning, which is why we can be sure that we will not lose.
However, to our surprise, this structured warship actually had such powerful detection equipment, and the target was discovered immediately after leaving the port.
"The other party's distance and bearing?" I asked loudly.
"In this direction." The observation window in front of us is indeed a display covered with water mirror surgery, which directly gives the nearby sea chart, and it is also a sea route map. The value of this thing is considerable.
"You actually have a chart?"
"This is the pre-stored information," the warship constructed responded directly.
Although we were surprised at first, we were relieved to think about it. After all, this battleship was built by the Atlantis, and unlike us, Atlantis is a marine race. It is very troublesome for us to draw charts, especially underwater charts. , But for the Atlantis is a relatively simple matter. Although it is very difficult and long-term work to draw the chart itself because of the area, after all, the Atlantis can live normally under water, so it is much simpler to draw the map of the sea floor than us. After all, they can stay on the sea floor without floating, which saves a lot of time.
For the time being, there is no question of managing the chart. I directly looked at the position marked on the displayed chart. This chart is very simple. In addition to the terrain, only two points have been marked as main, and a polyline extends beside each point. At the end of this polyline, some information is written, of course in Atlantis. , And the content is quite surprising.
In addition to the information marked on the map, such as the position, heading, and current speed of the opponent, there is also the name, type, tonnage, and status of the opponent's ship.
At first we heard that when we found the target, we thought that the detection system on this ship was very forked, but now it seems that this is not the case, because the detection system can no longer detect the name of the ship and the situation of the ship. Right? These are all human-marked things, not inherent attributes of the ship, and it is impossible for a cow detector to read out such information.
Sure enough, the core responded immediately after I asked, "The display data is information obtained through remote communication. The target ship and this piece belong to the same camp ship. Although not equipped with a biological core, but with a communication system, this ship has already Two-way capture with the target vessel. Telematics sharing is now possible. "
"Do you still bring this?" Kristina sighed.
"Even our own crystal communicator is a technology obtained from the Atlantis, so since the Atlantis have a crystal communicator, it is not surprising to create a communicator that can share information. Now, "said Gold Coins.
I looked at Ariana, and then asked, "Your Atlantis seems to have made a lot of progress compared to these ancient Atlantis, and it has gone back a lot!"
Ariana nodded no shyly: "Yes, Atlantis had a large-scale naval battle a long time ago. You have heard of some things after that, and what I know is actually not comprehensive I only know that the Atlantis tribe had been internally divided because of external wars. We are just one of the forces that have been split. You should be aware of such things as technology. The dispersion of scientific researchers will lead to the loss of technology. Now we It ’s actually very lucky to be able to save the current level of technology. And, when you first arrived at Atlantis, our technology has actually improved a little bit compared with the situation just after the original split. If we The situation will only get worse as soon as you split. "
I nodded in understanding. Then he turned to the intelligent core and said, "How far are you sharing with each other?"
"About three hundred nautical miles."
"Yes. Is it pretty long?" I said immediately after I said, "Then don't chase too close now. Right. What is the range of the other party's detector?"
"About ten nautical miles. The other party is a transport ship, not as advanced as a combat ship."
"You said you were capturing in both directions, can the other party find out where we are?" Kristina asked.
The core replied: "They are all own ships. Of course they can be found, but the other party is a manual vessel, so it needs to be operated manually. At present, the other party's communicator is in standby mode, and it is still activated because of my contact request, so the other party should be We don't know where we are yet. "
"Do you mean you activated the other party's communicator?"
"Yes."
"So what happens in the ship after this communicator is activated? For example, are there any lights or other lights on?"
"No," the core said, "the communicator didn't have a signal light."
I was relieved when I heard this. It seems we are quite lucky. Although the submarine used by the other party when leaving was not the one that Yamamoto 55 was transported over, but the larger model, these submarines are all the same. Except for the navigation system and the basic detection system, no other components could be activated. Although the other party also researched for a while, but because no solution was found, no one would fiddle with those devices that could not be started. However, the communicator on that ship is actually activated now, just because this gadget has been in a paralyzed state before, so no one is operating at all, and naturally they do not know that this gadget is ready for use. Otherwise, if we find them, they will certainly find us at the same time.
"By the way, those who occupied here said that nothing except the navigation and detection systems on the submarines could be activated. Do you know why? And how did you just open the communicator?"
The core replied very quickly: "The navigation and detection system of the transport submarine is a necessary equipment for shipping, so it is directly connected to the main energy system, and it will start as long as it is filled with magic crystal. But communication and self-defense weapon systems are non- The necessary device is activated only when it is needed. Therefore, the isolation method is adopted. Unless it is activated by using an identity crystal that Atlantis carried with them after birth, it can only be remotely configured by a warship like me Activated. "
"Do you mean that you can not only control the other party's communicator, but also their weapons?" Christina noticed the information in the other party's words.
I did not expect that the core really acknowledged: "Yes. Transport submarines are very fragile in combat, so usually after a battle occurs, a structured warship like me will take over control and enter the unified formation mode. In this mode, all ships in the fleet They are all under the unified command and control of the fleet's flagship, and this ship is one of the highest authority structural warships. As long as the fleet commander takes the ship, it is the flagship. "
"Then you can remotely control that submarine now?"
"Not for the time being. I need the identity crystal token control authority. At present, I can only monitor the operation of the other party and cannot control it in reverse."
Atlantis members carry a crystal with them at birth. This thing is just like an ID card to Atlantis, and it also has a series of functions such as private photo albums, various private keys, wallets, small storage spaces, protective props and so on. Because this thing is so important, this crystal of the Atlantis will never leave, even if a person dies, this crystal will be buried with them, anyway, this thing will not be from birth Separated from the Atlantis. As for what happens if you lose it ... then the Atlantis can die. You can lose such important things. To what extent?
Although Ariana has become a magic pet, she is a mermaid and a member of the Atlantis family, so she also has this thing. After hearing that request, Ariana didn't need me to remind me to immediately take out her crystal directly and insert it into a slot raised on the console.
With this crystal in place. The entire console flashed. Then I heard the voice of the core of the battleship suddenly became tense and solemnly said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I don't know that you are a princess. Although you have royal blood, there is also an outflow of will in the royal blood. But your crystal record Shows that you are a princess of the kingdom. So you no longer have to doubt your identity. Sorry for not giving corresponding treatment before. "
"Isn't you always very polite? What does it mean that there is no corresponding treatment?" Kristina asked.
The core of the warship said: "How can a princess have only one warship on tour? This is too dangerous. I am contacting nearby warships to escort."
"Ah?" Ayana and we stunned directly. But fortunately, I responded and called directly: "Don't call those target ships. Don't disturb their navigation."
The core of the warship immediately replied, "I didn't contact them. They were just transport ships. They were useless."
We were finally relieved to hear such an answer. However, I soon remembered that the other party also said that there was a convoy fleet. Quickly asked: "Where is the fleet you said? Have you been contacted?"
What made us almost faint is that the core of the warship actually said in a slightly puzzled tone after I asked, "Strange. Why can't I contact other warships. This water was originally a densely populated area of ​​the empire, and there should be many nearby The patrol fleet is right! Why can't I reach any of them? "
"About this ..." I was about to explain what is wrong now. Unexpectedly, the core was suddenly called again.
"Strange. I detected a large group of approximate targets, but it didn't seem to be Emperor."
"Ah? What approximate goal are you talking about?" I asked.
The core replied: "A large fleet appears in the waters above us. The number of ships is very large, which may attract a thousand ships. These ships are all equipped with crystal communication systems, but the operating frequency and method are not the same as my communicator. It ’s the same. The bias signals can still communicate with each other. It ’s strange!

"Well ... shouldn't he contact our warships?" Christina asked after touching me.
Actually I and Christina have similar thoughts. I knew when I looked at the sea area map before. This place is actually on the Pacific Ocean. In this place, there are a huge fleet of nearly a thousand ships. It can only be our Frost Rose Alliance ’s fleet or Russian and American ones. Fleet, at least the current Japan and South Korea can not make up for this number of warships.
However, although there are thousands of fleets in all three countries ~ EbookFREE.me ~, it seems that only the Frost Rose League is equipped with crystal communicators.
The crystal communicator technology of our guild is derived from Atlantis. The builder of this so-called warship seems to be the predecessor of Atlantis who has joined our guild. That is to say, the two are in the same vein. of. Then, it is not surprising that the crystal communicator now used by our guild can communicate with the communicator on this warship. However, in addition to the technology introduced from Atlantis, our guild has also merged many other marine or land-based technology races, so our communicator itself has been improved. In addition, there are certain technical faults in Atlantis and Ancient Atlantis. Some technologies have been lost in the middle, and some have been developed by themselves. Naturally, there are some differences between them. Therefore, there must be a certain difference between our communicator and the ancient Atlantis communicator on this battleship. This resulted in the two being able to connect, but could not communicate information, or the signal encoding was different. It was found that the signal could not be compiled, and all the code passing through was garbled.
"Excuse me, what do you mean by" our "fleet?" The core asked curiously, his intelligence level was very low, and he obviously could not understand these things.
"You don't need to worry about this first. Take us up immediately, let's go and see the fleet above." I ordered. (To be continued ...)
