607: Lao Bai's Star Destroyer, let's talk

Dr. Bai's star destroyer factory is on Mars.

If Mars Base City No. 1 is on the front side of Mars, then the factory is on the opposite, back side of Mars.

As the Dimension Butterfly flapped its wings slightly, Yang Dian stepped through the spatial gate, traversing hundreds of millions of kilometers to appear above the Mars factory.

The moment he stepped out of the spatial gate, he felt a stinging sensation coming from high above.

Feeling the danger, Yang Dian instinctively burrowed into the spatial interlayer.

Dr. Bai, who had been monitoring the surroundings and projected himself next to Yang Dian after detecting his presence, looked around in confusion: "Huh, didn't I see him come over?"

"Where is he?"

Yang Dian, who had instantly hidden himself in the 99th spatial interlayer, heard Lao Bai's muttering and looked up at the sky.

It was noon on the back side of Mars, with seven suns hanging in the sky.

Upon closer inspection, Yang Dian realized: how could these be seven suns?

It was clearly one sun, plus six gigantic starships shimmering with a fiery golden light.

"star destroyers?"

Feeling a vague sense of threat emanating from the center of the six gigantic starships, Yang Dian frowned, then stepped out of the spatial interlayer and asked Dr. Bai, who was still wondering where Yang Dian had gone and unable to show off: "Are those star destroyers in the sky?"

Lao Bai, dressed in a research uniform, was not surprised by Yang Dian's sudden appearance.

He nodded, then straightened his expression and, with an air of 'aren't I awesome?', said: "The Blazing Sun-type star destroyer, my design for a small star destroyer."

"It has one main cannon and 72 secondary cannons. After both main and secondary cannons are fully charged, they all possess the ability to destroy planets."

"When the main cannon is fully charged, it can destroy a small planet with a diameter of about 8,000 kilometers with one shot."

"When the secondary cannons are fully charged, they can destroy small asteroids or satellites with a diameter of about 800 kilometers with one shot."

"If six star destroyers engage in magnetic field resonance, they can also combine their energy for an attack. Without considering the cost, they can destroy a planet with a diameter of 20,000 kilometers with one shot."

"Of course, these are just figures I derived through calculations."

"Whether it can actually be achieved depends on its performance."

After introducing the star destroyer, Lao Bai clasped his hands behind his back, looked up at the sky, and remained silent, acting like a master.

Yang Dian looked at the starships in the sky that were in a charging state, pondered for a moment, then asked: "What is the normal firing energy level of the secondary cannons? If the main cannon doesn't charge, what energy level can it achieve?"

"If full power attack is desired, how much time is needed for the secondary cannons, main cannon, and multiple star destroyers to perform magnetic field resonance combined attacks?"

"If cannons are fired at a planet in outer space, how great is the energy loss?"

Seeing Yang Dian directly address the core issues without a word, Dr. Bai, whose attempt to show off had failed, clenched his fist and then sighed: "The normal firing time is about 10 seconds, and the destructive energy level is one percent of the full-power concentrated attack."

"The time required for full-power charging is about 600 seconds, which is 10 minutes."

"As for concentrated attacks..."

"Because it requires calculating, maintaining, and balancing the concentrated magnetic field, the time required is longer."

"It takes an hour to complete the concentration."

"As for energy loss, it's actually not bad in a space environment."

"Through the influence of the focusing device, the effective strike range of the Planet Destroyer Cannon in a cosmic environment is 50 million kilometers."

"Under normal circumstances, there is no energy dissipation within a range of 50 million kilometers."

"Beyond 50 million kilometers, for every million kilometers, 1% of energy dissipates."

"The further the distance, the faster the energy dissipates."

"The effective strike range is around 100 million kilometers."

After answering Yang Dian's questions, Dr. Bai began to justify himself: "Regarding the charging time, it's actually not a big problem."

"I've installed a hidden device on the star destroyer."

"The star destroyer can perform simulated stealth and restrict energy propagation, ensuring that others cannot detect the star destroyer's presence before it fires."

"As long as the Planet Destroyer Cannon can fire, everything else is a minor issue."

Yang Dian looked up at the star destroyers in the sky: "Hide one for me to see."

Dr. Bai tapped his wristband twice.

The next moment, the sky rippled like water.

Another six star destroyers appeared on the other side of Yang Dian's vision.

Looking at the newly appeared star destroyers, which were in a charging state, Yang Dian's pupils contracted slightly.

He had only sensed a threat from the previous six Star Destroyers; he had indeed been completely unaware of the six star destroyers Dr. Bai had hidden.

"How did you do that?"

"My spiritual perception is quite good, and my perception of danger is even more acute."

"How did you make these star destroyers deceive my perception?"

Dr. Bai counted on his fingers: "First, I didn't let the star destroyers aim their cannons at you, so a Martial Artist's danger perception is almost ineffective in this situation."

"Second, I used mimicry technology to deceive your vision and a special magnetic field to hide the energy fluctuations generated during energy concentration."

"Plus, with six star destroyers overhead attracting your attention, it's normal that you didn't notice the star destroyers I had hidden."

Yang Dian curled his fingers upon hearing this: "Besides these 12 star destroyers, are there more star destroyers hidden somewhere?"

Dr. Bai, for once, rolled his eyes: "These are star destroyers, not dumplings!".

"Do you think I can just conjure them up at will?"

Yang Dian remained silent, only glancing at Lao Bai.

What's the difference between his speed of producing star destroyers and making dumplings?

Dr. Bai pouted at his reaction: "The Materials for building star destroyers are hard to come by."

"Besides small star destroyers, I also plan to design medium and large star destroyers, so I can't waste too many Materials on small star destroyers."

"Later, I will test the star destroyers. If there are no problems, I will subsequently produce another 288 small star destroyers, for a total of 300 to protect Earth."

"If an accident occurs, then we'll deal with it when it happens."

As soon as Lao Bai finished speaking, Yang Dian snapped his fingers: "Our Expeditionary Force needs 200 of those 300 star destroyers."

As Lao Bai's eyes widened, Yang Dian said: "If I'm not mistaken, the Materials you're using to build these star destroyers were all seized by me from the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, right?"

"So, staying on Earth is a dead end. We can only fight our way out to acquire enough growth resources."

At this point, Yang Dian didn't give Lao Bai a chance to refuse, changing the subject: "By the way, do the star destroyers have spatial jump or warp drive devices?"

"If not, building so many star destroyers seems rather useless..."

Dr. Bai rubbed his temples: "How can it be so easy to 'develop' spatial jump and warp drive technology?"

"Give me some more time to research it."

Hearing the words 'develop' from Lao Bai, Yang Dian subconsciously raised an eyebrow.

'Develop technology?'

'Does he really think this is a game, with a System?'

Thinking this, Yang Dian prepared to be frank with Lao Bai and have a good talk: "Lao Bai, what is your Awakening talent?"

"How is it that advancing technology is as simple as eating and drinking for you?"
