I was exposed for mining on Mars

Since the manufacturing factory and orbital dock of the Mars orbital platform are constantly expanding at this time, the manufacturing speed of Xia Yu-class battleships is also quite fast.

At least it is much faster than the test ships built before.

When Luo Xiu completed his first weapons test and returned to the Mars orbital platform, the first Xia Yu-class battleship was almost completed.

"Mastermind, how is the progress of the Xia Yu-class first ship?"

After Luo Xiu came out of the hatch of the test ship, he asked directly to the base control system.

"81% of construction has been completed."

When Luo Xiu floated towards the orbital dock, the mastermind who took over the communication authority from the experimental ship control system also replied directly.

"Very good, the progress is not bad."

Now the number of electromagnetic railguns on Mars has reached an astonishing 12, and an extremely large amount of materials are launched into space every day.

With these resources, the orbital platform will have many fewer restrictions on building warships.

More importantly, metals refined in space have almost no impurities. Smelting in space allows them to be formed directly without touching any objects. This is one of the reasons why star battleships are basically produced in orbital docks.

Of course, the most important thing is to avoid the energy expenditure of star battleships escaping from the gravity of stars. After all, a huge object like a starship consumes a huge amount of energy to escape the gravity of the star.

Precisely because of various factors, all warships after Luo Xiu will also be produced in the orbital dock.

"Can the new control system be installed on the Xia Yu class this time?" When Luo Xiu was about to float to the second orbital dock, he suddenly asked the base control system.

"After continuous verification, the new ship control system is ready to be boarded."

With the reply from the base control system, Luo Xiu had drifted into the dock and saw the Xia Yu-class battleship under construction.

Compared with the test ship, this battleship has a length of 4,000 meters, which is twice that of the test ship, and a maximum width of 700 meters, which is 1.7 times that of the test ship.

Its appearance is hugely different from the long cylinder of the test ship. Its hull is overall flat, with a nuclear fusion engine placed behind it. In front of the nuclear fusion engine, there are drone-mounted platforms spread out to both sides like bird wings, and an array of particle beam weapons distributed above.

After passing the 'bird wing', it continues to narrow forward, converging directly into an arc at the front.

On the upper, lower, left and right sides of this front-facing arc are four electromagnetic railguns.

The eight huge rails point outward in unison, with their tips like bayonets, straight into deep space.

In addition to the main body, there are also many external platforms protruding from the hull on both sides, which are used to attack approaching unidentified stars and space junk.

Before the autonomous protective shield was produced, this was the Xia Yu class's most effective weapon for cleaning up surrounding objects.

Of course, with the current strength of the Xia Yu-class hull, even if it hits a comet, it will not suffer much damage.

"How long does it take to build ten battleships?" After seeing the manufacturing progress of the Xia Yu-class battleships, Luo Xiu floated above the battleships and asked the base control system.

"The task of manufacturing ten warships can be completed in 141 hours, 13 minutes and 28 seconds."

The base control system that now coordinates the entire Mars resources gave Luo Xiu a manufacturing time accurate to seconds.

"A week?"

"Just one week then. After one week, I'll go meet the Blue Star people here."

After saying that, Luo Xiu no longer paid attention to the Xia Yu-class first ship under construction, but returned to the orbital platform.

Compared with when Luo Xiu first arrived in space, the current orbital platform has grown to 70 kilometers in length and 30 kilometers in width, and has basically reached the size of a space home port.

As for space, it is not just the side where Luo Xiu is sitting that is being used.

Under Luo Xiu's feet, there were also a large number of equipment and automated robots operating on the other side of the platform. In other words, compared to the surface of Mars, the utilization rate of the platform in space is twice as high.

Of course, even if the utilization rate of this orbital platform is extremely high, for spacecraft that often measure kilometers, this platform can only be used as a small home port.

If we really get to the kind of planet-level battleships that Luo Xiu had come into contact with before, even docking one would be quite difficult, not to mention being a home port for the battleships.

While waiting for the construction period of the Xia Yu-class battleship, Luo Xiu also needed to return to the surface of Mars to view the planetary shield that was about to be completely completed.

In the initial plan, six planetary shields were needed to hide Mars from the detection wave of the advance fleet.

But now if the Blue Star is to be shielded at fixed points, Luo Xiu will need to add two more planetary shields on the moon or Blue Star to connect the two places to the grid and hide the entire area from the detection wave.

In fact, if it was just to shield primary civilizations in the interstellar stage like Blue Star Civilization, Luo Xiu only needed a ship-based shielding system, which would be enough.

But what he has to face is not the Blue Star Civilization, but a powerful group with highly developed technology and more than 20 civilizations under his command.

For such a collection, its detection system is quite complete. If he just used a shielding extender, Luo Xiu couldn't guarantee that he could cover up all the communication signals between the two parties.

After Luo Xiu completes the construction of the ten Xia Yu-class battleships, he will take some construction robots to the moon and build two more planetary shields on the moon's surface to shield the communication signals between the two sides from the detection waves.

"Your Excellency Commander, the planetary shield has been completely constructed and can be activated at full power."

While Luo Xiu was still thinking about future plans, the last planetary shielder on Mars had also completed its connection to the grid and began its shielding mission.

"Zi"

When the planet shield under Luo Xiu's feet was activated, red current instantly lit up on the 100-meter black column extending from the shield. After its power continued to increase, the five jammers were also adjusted to the same frequency and completed the grid connection work.

The simultaneous activation of six planetary shields is actually no different from one for the current Blue Star civilization. But for the coming detection waves, they can shield buildings on Mars, as well as platforms and docks in orbit.

With the current technology of the advance fleet, it is impossible for them to detect Luo Xiu's existence.

"Now we're just waiting for the moon's shield to be built." Luo Xiu raised his head and looked in the direction of Blue Star, "Then they will be there."

The people Luo Xiu mentioned were the detection wave that was rapidly heading towards Blue Star, and the advance fleet behind it.

A week is a very long time for both Luo Xiu and Blue Star.

Although the normal life of humans on Blue Star has not been affected in any way, with an alien civilization above their heads, they are always very depressed inside.

For Luo Xiu, due to the tight time, he must make full use of every second in order to gain the glimmer of hope in the subsequent conflict.

In particular, antimatter annihilation bombs have not yet been developed, which is also a very important point for Luo Xiu.

Only by surpassing the opponent in terms of weapons can Luo Xiu have the ability to defend his home system.

Judging from the current test progress, the progress of the antimatter annihilation bomb is pretty good. This project has been able to conduct wrapping material tests at the test site at the North Pole of Mars.

As long as the materials are in place, the production of antimatter annihilation bombs can be on track.

"Your Excellency, Commander, ten Xia Yu-class battleships have been manufactured and the weapon modules are fully equipped."

At the North Pole of Mars, Luo Xiu, who was observing the extraction of antimatter, suddenly received a prompt from the base control system.

Since Luo Xiu was in the laboratory at this time, Luo Xiu did not wear exoskeleton armor, but got the news through the base's loudspeaker equipment.

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

After learning that all ten battleships had been built, Luo Xiu glanced at the antimatter extraction laboratory again, then turned around and prepared to leave the North Pole of Mars.

After putting on the exoskeleton armor again, Luo Xiu took the orbital shuttle that had been waiting outside the laboratory and headed directly to the orbital platform.

When Luo Xiu got off the shuttle aircraft, at the docking point directly in front of him, ten 4,000-meter-long Xia Yu-class battleships lined up in sequence and docked side by side on the side of the orbital platform.

Compared with the test ship Luo Xiu was on before, ten space battleships of this size are already very spectacular.

After Luo Xiu glanced at these ten huge space battleships, he drifted directly to the nearest Xia Yu-class battleship, preparing to board the ship to 'meet' Blue Star's aircraft.

In space, everything was silent. From Luo Xiu's return to the orbital platform to the opening of the hatch of the first Xia Yu-class battleship, everything was unusually quiet, without the slightest sound.

This is the magic of space.

"Zi."

When Luo Xiu entered the first Xia Yu-class battleship, the hatch was closed, and only a trace of sound came from the cabin filled with air.

As Luo Xiu landed on the bridge, all the external indicators of the ten Xia Yu-class battleships also lit up, the jet ports at the tail were opened, and they gradually floated out of the docking point.

After continuously leaving the orbital platform, the ten warships also gradually distanced themselves, heading towards Blue Star's aircraft array at a distance of a hundred kilometers apart.

At this time, at the forefront of the Blue Star spacecraft array, inside the Chinese spacecraft, Luo Faqi and others were still looking in the direction of Mars through the observation port.

"Can't you see it anymore?" Behind observer Luo Faqi, Xue He leaned over and asked Luo Faqi.

Luo Faqi, who was observing, didn't take his eyes off the observation telescope and replied directly: "Well, he has fully recovered."

What the two were discussing at this time was the blank areas on the asteroid belt that Luo Xiu had created using the kinetic energy weapons carried by the test ship.

However, as the asteroid belt corrects itself, the traces of these experiments are now gradually disappearing.

"Tell me, why didn't those aircraft attack us last time when they passed by us?" Xue He leaned on the bulkhead next to Luo Faqi and asked him with a frown.

"I don't know. Anyway, we are still heading towards Mars."

After replying, Luo Faqi raised his head and left the observer, "Maybe he doesn't care about us at all. After all, we are not enough people to fill the gap between the other party's teeth."

What Luo Faqi said at this time was exactly what most Blue Star people in the aircraft array thought.

Judging from the strength that Luo Xiu had shown before, even if the Americians brought the 'little boy', they would not pose any threat to the alien civilization on Mars.

After the initial fright of the shielding extender, Luo Faqi and others felt a lot more relaxed, and they no longer had any worries when talking about these things.

In their words, they have already died once, so why are they afraid of aliens?

"What do you think this alien creature is?" Luo Faqi, who stabilized himself through the belt, picked up a piece of food and asked the other three people.

Now everyone is idle and bored, and Blue Star has not sent a signal, so the four of them usually have a lot of rest time.

"What is it?" As a biologist, Xue He was very interested in this topic. "It's not a silicon-based organism anyway."

"But judging from the other party's actions, perhaps the previous 'Creator' hypothesis on Blue Star is really possible."

Hearing Xue He's words, Luo Faqi was a little surprised, "Do you also support this statement?"

"That's not to support this statement, but this hypothesis is the most likely among many hypotheses." Seeing Luo Faqi tearing open the food bag, Xue He also felt a little hungry and floated over directly, "From now on, the other party's Judging from his actions, he doesn’t seem to have much hostility towards Blue Star.”

"If he is very hostile to Blue Star, the area that turned black before is not just Amerik's space center. And judging from the scenes played by the other party before, he is more to intimidate Blue Star. , rather than suppression.”

Xue He's eloquent talk made Luo Faqi and Yang Hongbin slightly nod their heads.

They also quite agreed with Xue He's words. Because if the other party really wanted to attack Blue Star, the four of them would have turned into cosmic dust long ago.

And even if the alien civilization wants to use Xue He and others as guinea pig experiments, there are too many such people on Blue Star, and there is no need to wait for people like Luo Faqi.

You must know that it only took a month for the opponent's black aircraft to reach Blue Star from Mars. If the opponent wants to capture a few Blue Star people, it is not easy to do so.

"Then he is really the Creator?" Astronaut Mao Xiong, who could understand Mandarin but had not spoken much, also came over and joined the discussion. "This is amazing. It is better than what I see now." The furry bear or the red furry bear on the star is even more wonderful.”

Mao Xiong’s astronauts really can’t imagine that they are actually the creation of the Creator.

"Hypothesis, of course it cannot be fully calculated." Xue He saw that Mao Xiong's astronaut was really involved, so he quickly waved to him and said.

"Only when we arrive on Mars and communicate with each other can we know what this world is like."
