It's a type of auxiliary Starship, also known as the 'Interstellar Mobile Factory'!
As the name suggests, an Interstellar Industrial Ship can perform most industrial production operations, and can even be used to produce Starships.
Before, Zhao Chen had always been thinking about interstellar industry. Without that foundation, every time he wanted to produce a Starship, he had to rent a workshop from a Starport like this.
It was inconvenient and °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° unsafe.
If he could have his own interstellar industry, all these troubles would disappear.
And now, Zhao Chen has the opportunity to own an Interstellar Industrial Ship!
This means that as long as he has raw materials and technology, Zhao Chen can produce Starships anytime, anywhere.
Establishing an Starfleet belonging to Zhao Chen is not a dream!
T2 Iron Hammer-class Heavy Interstellar Industrial Ship
Ship Type: Interstellar Industrial Ship
Tech Level: T2
Hull Armor Strength: 100 units
Cruising Speed: 20 knots per star speed
Warp Engine: Level 4 Warp Engine
Length: 500 meters
Mass: 200,000 tons
Crew Capacity: 200 people
Starship Weapons: 50 light CIWS turrets
Zhao Chen checked the data of this T2 Iron Hammer. Its volume was significantly larger than the t2 bee queen-class heavy carrier starship.
Its weapons were pitifully few; after all, it wasn't a combat Starship, only having the most basic defensive firepower.
But upon checking its core function, which was the interstellar industry aspect, it made Zhao Chen practically drool.
This was a semi-intelligent Interstellar Industrial Ship, requiring only a small crew to perform production work, and its production efficiency was extremely high!
For example, the recently completed T2 Queen Bee: renting the best Starship workshop at Arctic Fox Starport, Zhao Chen worked day and night for two months.
However, if he used the T2 Iron Hammer, even if Zhao Chen wasn't present, as long as the blueprints and technology were input, the Starship system would distribute them to various manufacturing positions. At the same time, a confidential production method could be adopted, where personnel at each position would only know the technical content of their specific Links.
Furthermore, Zhao Chen could even be responsible for the most core technologies.
This would greatly reduce the workload!
At the same time, this Interstellar Industrial Ship could reduce the raw material loss rate by 20%!
That means raw materials that originally cost 1.5 million star coins could save nearly 300,000 star coins.
This was absolutely the most formidable T2 Interstellar Industrial Ship known.
With it, Zhao Chen would be like a tiger with wings.
"I must build one! I must!" Zhao Chen's eyes glowed red.
But after calculating the construction cost, Zhao Chen was dumbfounded.
The cost of a single ship was 2 million star coins!
"Damn, this is even more expensive than the T2 Queen Bee!" Zhao Chen glanced at his account.
He previously had 1.9 million star coins. Although he had given Charlotte tens of thousands to buy Half-Beastman slaves, he still had over 1.8 million.
There was a deficit of over 200,000.
And that didn't even include the cost of renting the Starport Starship workshop.
Plus, in the future, he would need some reserve funds to maintain Blizzard Zero and the T2 Queen Bee.
Calculating it all, Zhao Chen wouldn't even be qualified to build this T2 Iron Hammer-class Heavy Interstellar Industrial Ship without 2.5 million star coins.
"Short on money again." Zhao Chen scratched his head. Indeed, building Starships was a money pit.
That's why it was always said that Starships were toys for the rich.
"What about the missing part? Should I go to Li Yaqi again to sell Starships? But she already has a Starship in production, so she won't need a second one in a short time.
Should I find other Starship dealers? What if I provoke some entities I can't afford to offend right now? The saying 'an innocent man is guilty because of his treasure' is something I learned in elementary school." Zhao Chen frowned.
As he was thinking, he suddenly slapped his head.
The money was right there waiting for him; how could he have forgotten about it?
The nobles in the Owl Dragon Star System all had considerable family fortunes. Although the Owl Dragon Star System was poor, it didn't prevent these nobles from plundering wealth.
Zhao Chen's lips curved into a cold, sinister smile. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
In addition to a Starship technology reward, Zhao Chen also received three other rewards.
Obtained 5 mission points
Obtained 500 system points
Obtained T1 Super Soldier Serum
Mission points and system points were self-explanatory, conveniently fulfilling Zhao Chen's needs.
But the third reward caught Zhao Chen's attention.
T1 Super Soldier Serum?
T1 Super Soldier Serum: A serum that can modify the human body, to be injected directly into the body.
Uh...
Just this simple sentence?
This introduction was as good as no introduction at all; the name itself indicated it modified the human body.
Zhao Chen was speechless, but since it was given by the system, there shouldn shouldn't be any problems.
Moreover, his current body was indeed too weak. During the past two months of work, he had fainted directly five times.
When he used the military stasis pod before, he had made a complete fool of himself in front of Zhao Wan'er.
He was a man who wanted to conquer the stars and the sea; how could he be so weak!
Without another word, Zhao Chen retrieved the serum from the system warehouse.
Immediately, a twenty-centimeter long cylindrical serum tube appeared in Zhao Chen's hand, containing a light blue glowing liquid.
Zhao Chen swallowed, muttering: "System, you wouldn't trick me, right...?"
After speaking, he raised his hand and injected the needle directly into his arm.
In one second, all the blue liquid in the serum had been injected.
"No feeling?" Zhao Chen was startled.
But the next second, his pupils dilated. He felt as if every cell in his body was exploding. He painfully fell to the ground. He wanted to scream, but found his throat seemed to be blocked, unable to make any sound.
This feeling, in Zhao Chen's opinion, seemed to last for an entire century.
"Hoo hoo hoo..." Zhao Chen suddenly sat up, gasping for air. The discomfort in his body had disappeared.
He checked the time; only three minutes had passed.
He touched his body; not only was there no pain, but even his previous fatigue had completely vanished.
Zhao Chen stood up, conjured a mirror, and looked at himself in the mirror.
His face seemed more chiseled.
Lifting his shirt, his previously flat abdomen actually had abs, and even his arms had developed muscles.
Zhao Chen tried to throw a punch; he could hear the air being torn. He tried to jump; he could actually easily touch the ceiling.
Zhao Chen excitedly did push-ups again, completely without any pressure. He did five hundred in one go, and didn't feel tired at all.
"Am I a superman now!" Zhao Chen was overjoyed.
This T1 Super Soldier Serum really worked.
Wait a minute...
Does having T1 mean there's a T2?
Zhao Chen seemed to have thought of something and opened the system store.
First, he searched in the T1 item section and actually found the T1 Super Soldier Serum he had just used.
T1 Super Soldier Serum: Requires 1 mission point and 30 system points
So, it was in the system store.
It was just that when he browsed before, Zhao Chen was only looking at Starship blueprints and didn't pay attention to these.
And at that time, his precious mission points wouldn't have been used on this.
Zhao Chen then looked at the T2 series items, and he quickly found his target.
T2 Super Soldier Serum: Requires 3 mission points and 600 system points
"I'm not in a hurry to improve my physical fitness right now; the current situation is enough. It's not too late to exchange for it when I'm more affluent later." Zhao Chen saw the price and chose to put it aside for now.
Since the feeling of fatigue was gone, he went directly to the Blizzard Zero Bridge.
"Good day, Captain." The Half-Beastman female crew member on the Bridge immediately greeted him. She cautiously looked at the Captain, noticing that he seemed a little different today.
He was taller and more handsome than before!
Sitting in the Captain's chair, Zhao Chen contacted the T2 Queen Bee Bridge.
Zhao Wan'er and Charlotte appeared in the video window opposite.
"Why aren't you resting?" Zhao Wan'er looked at Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen said, "I'm not very tired right now. How are your Starships preparing?"
"It'll take about half a day more to get ready," Charlotte replied.
"Alright then, Charlotte, go and compile a list of the daily necessities and military supplies we need. Bring everything before we depart. Blizzard Zero will follow you during your trial run. Once the trial run is complete, we'll depart for the Owl Dragon Star System," Zhao Chen said.
"So urgent?" Zhao Wan'er was a little surprised.
Zhao Chen chuckled playfully, "This Hongmen Banquet has kept them waiting for two months; any later wouldn't be appropriate."
He was eager to collect his 'wealth'.
