Chapter 505: Construction plan of Antarctic airport! Chapter 505: Construction plan of Antarctic Airport!
Twin island base covered with ice and snow.
Rorschach, who had just returned to the base lobby, couldn't wait to hold an impromptu roundtable meeting.
Except Iron Man David and the carrier-based aircraft soul Cortana.
Even the Servo-Skull, who was working hard to dismantle the Tau Empire battle suits to gain technological experience for the titles of Micro Knight and Sage, was called over.
And the purpose of Rorschach's visit to them.
This is to discuss how his simulation rewards should be chosen.
At this moment, Rorschach raised a vibranium hand and rubbed his chin, then glanced at the people in front of him.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice,
"Now there is such a thing. We can immediately obtain a brand new Cobra-class destroyer, or through various means, have the opportunity to obtain an Emperor-class battleship. Everyone, please note that it is an opportunity to obtain, which also means there is a possibility of failure. It is not like a Cobra-class destroyer that can be safely obtained."
"So, if you have any ideas, please share them."
After hearing Rorschach's question.
Iron Man David, with blue light flashing in his eyes, shook his metal head slightly.
However, it didn't say much, but turned its head to look at Reditus parked on the metal round table.
"Ah, first of all, we would like to congratulate the primarch for once again receiving the favor of the great Emperor. This is a precious honor that should be remembered by all of us."
"Although according to the philosophy and ideas of our Adeptus Mechanicus, bigger is better, bigger is wonderful, and the value of the Emperor-class battleship and the Cobra-class destroyer is simply incomparable, we still need to consider the impact of realistic factors."
"Currently, the number of automatic servo robots in all our branch bases, plus the number in Latvia, is about 70,000 to 80,000. If we take into account the reserve number in the foundry on the second island, we will calculate it as 100,000."
"If the Primarch chooses the Emperor-class battleship, the first thing we need is a low-orbital airport for daily parking and maintenance. Then all the production lines in the foundry will need to be temporarily stopped. After all, just processing the metal materials for building the airport is a very troublesome task."
"Since the primarch will not recruit a large number of mortals to participate in the construction task, the number of automatic servo robots will have to be expanded several times to carry out basic work. In fact, even if we want to recruit mortal servants, the number of people we control now is not enough."
"Don't look at me strangely, this is not over yet... If everything goes well and the airport is built, I remember that the Emperor-class battleship needs at least 25,000 skilled crew members to barely start. Please note that starting here means starting the subspace engine. If you want to deploy the void shield and control the weapon array, I think one million people is a more ideal number."
At this moment, Reditus was lying on the metal round table, waving his short mechanical arms back and forth.
It spoke rapidly and incessantly to the people around it.
And it finishes each sentence.
Rorschach's brows furrowed slightly, and his expression gradually changed.
"Respected Primarch, I can prove that what your Tech-Priest said is basically correct. In the original Battle Barge of the Tempest, there were more than two million mortal servants stationed in my body all year round, and the number of servants required for daily maintenance is no less than that."
At this moment, Cortana, the carrier-based soul who looked like a giant metal caterpillar, spoke to Rorschach in a mechanical tone.
And after hearing the other party's words.
Rorschach narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath. He asked again in a deep voice:
"So, what if we are more realistic and only choose Cobra-class destroyers?"
"My Lord Primarch, according to the ship data I know, the Cobra-class destroyer is only 1.5 kilometers long, 0.3 kilometers wide, and weighs about 5.7 million tons. There is no need to build a near-ground airport. Any sub-base can be converted into a dock. Moreover, since the ship is relatively small, many internal facilities can be transformed on a large scale. Some equipment locations that originally required manual control can be turned into fully automatic facilities. In this way, the number of crew members from 15,000 can be reduced to 5,000 to 3,000, which can reduce the burden on our team a lot."
At this moment, red light flashed in Raditus' eyes.
It seemed to calculate all the data, and then began to report to Rorschach.
Rorschach did not continue speaking. He waved to everyone, disbanding this impromptu roundtable meeting.
The next moment, Raditus, driving the anti-gravity engine, slowly rose into the air.
It circled back and forth a few times towards the carrier-based aircraft soul that was slowly moving its metal limbs, and then flew straight into the base passage.
After the huge carrier-based aircraft soul Cortana also left the base hall.
Iron Man David, who had remained silent, leaned forward slightly and said to Rorschach:
"My Lord, if you really can't bear to part with the Emperor-class battleship, you can get it first. Although what Reditus said is true, our power is not static. As time goes by, we can conquer more places and gain more population, so that the Emperor-class battleship can become one of your vehicles..."
"Don't persuade me, David. As the Primarch, my goal should be the Queen of Glory-class battleship, not hesitating for a mere Emperor-class battleship!"
At this moment, Rorschach, whose brows were gradually relaxed, seemed to have made up his mind.
He suddenly smiled at Iron Man David and said softly:
"There are no enemies in the local world that require an Emperor-class battleship to deal with. Wasting a large amount of productivity and population for an Emperor-class battleship is a loss-making thing."
"Also, we need to verify whether the subspace engine can be used on our home world. Therefore, a Cobra-class destroyer that can be obtained immediately is actually our best choice."
"David, I remember the Antarctic base has been vacant for a long time, right? How is the construction going there?"
After hearing Rorschach's question.
A blue light flashed in Iron Man David's eyes.
It spoke slowly,
"My Lord, do you want to set up the Antarctic base as our dock? That is indeed a suitable place. The automatic servo robots and some mechanical creations that were left there before did not have any important tasks, so I can only set them the basic goal of expanding and maintaining the base."
"Now, the underground area of the Antarctic base is more than enough to store the Queen of Glory-class battleships. If it is really suitable, it is also worth looking forward to building an airport in and out of Terra at the Antarctic location in the future."
Thank you for your support!
