241. Mercenary
After sending Rory-Swann away, Tang Xiao leaned back on the backrest, resting his hands on the back of his head, with a playful smile on his lips.
I had just meditated in Dawn Star Planet. It stands to reason that the killing intention in him was very light, but Swann still felt uncomfortable. But similarly, when he met the biologist before, he had just returned from the killing field, but the other person had no feeling at all.
The same goes for Cun Te. He called Cun Te back, and Cun Te just talked to him about many things as if he were meeting old friends, and he didn't feel much about the change in his temperament.
Why did Swann feel it? This is very interesting.
The awakening of the biologist and Swann also meant that Tang Xiao was starting to take another path - the path of self-research and development.
In the past, Fourth Civilization's spaceship equipment was all directly borrowed, completely copying the technology of other games in the database, but this will not last long after all. The technology of other games may not be adaptable to the world of "Star Wars".
For example, live ammunition weapons. The Deflector Shield equipped on the spaceship in "Star Wars" has strong resistance to live ammunition weapons. Even if it cannot defend against the kinetic energy of live ammunition weapons, it can still cause the projectiles to deviate from the target.
In contrast, blaster weapons will release all their energy the moment they hit Deflector Shield, maximizing the purpose of weakening the shield. This is why the world of "Star Wars" uses a large number of Turbolaser cannons.
That's why the Blade fighter in the technology tree of "Homeworld" was so unbearable at first. It was hit by three bounty Hunter spaceships and was almost wiped out. Performance is on the one hand, and on the other hand, the main factor is that the cannon equipped on the Blade fighter has no effect on Deflector Shield.
Therefore, whether it was Hammer-class frigate or Revenge-class destroyer equipped later, all were modified, and the originally installed kinetic energy weapons were changed to blue laser weapons. This is the technology tree in "Stellaris".
In the final analysis, independent research and development is the real way. Of course, there are so many ready-made technologies in the database that are very mature in design and actual operation. They are also unnecessary and need to be combined.
Fourth Civilization...
Tang Xiao raised his palm and looked at it over and over.
Fourth Civilization is also slowly getting rid of the shackles of Glory mothership... Now there are less than 200,000 hibernating crew members left in Glory mothership, and more than 450,000 people have been awakened and joined this big family. Many of the rest are talents from Master Class, Legendary Class, and the two unknown levels.
Cryo-embryo has also adopted and cultivated 2 million people, and this number will increase geometrically.
Where will the future go?
Tang Xiao was thinking aimlessly until Mainframe's notification interrupted his thoughts.
[Manager, Trench has completed treatment and he wants to talk to you.]
Trench! Tang Xiao has almost forgotten this person. Ever since General Trench's flagship was destroyed in Battle of Malastare Canyon, but was rescued by Tang Xiao at the last moment, he has been receiving treatment in Glory mothership's medical cabin.
Because he was directly impacted by the explosion and was blown out of the rescue hatch without closing the door, he was directly exposed to the vacuum of space for at least 10 minutes. Fortunately, although the door of the rescue capsule was not closed, the internal life-support system was still operating, so he saved his life. However, the injuries he suffered were extremely serious and he did not wake up until now.
Hatchian's vitality is really quite tenacious.
Tang Xiao sighed and went to the medical room. There, he saw General Trench in a special hospital gown waiting, "You came earlier than I expected, Mr. Tang Xiao, tut tut tut tut..."
Tang Xiao was not polite and asked directly, "I heard that you are now a mercenary?"
"That's right, tsk tsk tsk tsk. If my employer needs to organize a battle between spaceship formations, then I will help them command the fleet and bring victory... at a very high price. tsk tsk tsk tsk..." Trench stroked the crotch at the corner of his mouth with some pride.
"What if I want to hire you long-term?" Tang Xiao asked with a smile.
"This is not a low-price thing, and there is still a contract between me and Corporate Alliance. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk." Trench replied.
"No need to say more, let's see where you are first." Tang Xiao said, "Then, Fourth Group will hire you for a long time and give you a higher price than Corporate Alliance. And at this stage, I will not arrange combat missions for you. Just..."
The smile on Tang Xiao's face turned cold, and an extremely powerful Dark Side Force began to linger around him. This power seemed to make people face death!
"You just need to remember who you are working for when the time is right!"
Trench couldn't help but take a few steps back. Although he couldn't tell what the force around Tang Xiao's body was just now, the pressure that that force brought to him was very direct. He also understood that the person in front of him was far more than just Fourth Group!
"You want me to be a spy?" Trench said slowly.
"We will be comrades fighting side by side, General Trench." Tang Xiao said the word "admiral" heavily, "And I know that you can't refuse."
Trench took two steps back and said in a deep voice, "What are you planning? Are you planning to plot against the Corporate Alliance?"
"Corporate Alliance? Why should I plot against them? Who do they count? Hahahaha... What I plan is so big that you can't imagine it. So, you don't need to know the answer, you just need to know what you should know." Tang Xiao sneered.
Trench thought for a while, "I understand, I accept your employment. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
"One million credits have been credited to your account. The medical expenses this time are mine." Tang Xiao walked over and took the initiative to shake hands with Trench, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, future Admiral of the Navy."
Outer Rim of the galaxy edge, Planet Askaji.
A Fire-breathing class small spaceship silently approached a sparsely populated factory on the planet. The spacecraft flew directly to the miners' residential area. Without even saying hello, it launched a crazy bombing on the ground!
boom! boom!! The violent explosion woke up the sleeping miners, who screamed and fled in all directions.
At this time, the door of the spaceship opened, and a man covered in armor jumped directly from the air, activated his jetpack and fell from the sky in the midst of a chaotic residential area!
He drew his gun and shot like Blitz, and three Guardians from different directions were killed almost at the same time!
