Chen Ming looked at the armor-piercing panel in front of him, and some surprise appeared on his face again.

The mass of the armor-piercing spacecraft has far exceeded the limit he thought at the beginning.

Not only does it have a radiation energy capacity that is 3,500 higher than the refractive class, it even has a radiation energy dissipation that is more than twice the refractive class.

Even if we only look at this point, the power of the armor-piercing class is beyond doubt.

And this powerful foundation is supported by the design of the spacecraft's armor and cabin.

The armor used by the Armor-Breaking Class is a lightweight radiation energy diversion armor made of Baiyun Steel Liquid Gold composite material.

Not only does the design of the armor itself leave many channels for radiation energy dissipation inside.

Liquid Gold, a material with the best radiation energy conductivity compared to other high-grade metals, is also selected as the material for making the armor.

With such a double blessing, Chen Ming is not too surprised that the Armor-Breaking Class has such an exaggerated radiation energy dissipation efficiency.

It’s just that the strength of the material itself is relatively low. Even if it is compounded with Baiyun Steel and other materials to make armor, the strength of the armor itself will be reduced to a certain extent.

But this does not affect the strength of the Armor-Breaking Class.

Because the shortcomings in the armor can be made up in other places.

The special equipment installed inside the Armor-Breaking Class is also part of its strength.

For example, the large high-energy focusing system module, Chen Ming is very clear about the function of this thing.

And the bonus that a large-scale thing can bring to the energy weapon of the spacecraft, Chen Ming thinks it is needless to say.

On the contrary, Chen Ming studied the other antiparticle energy activation module and energy stabilizer a little before figuring out their functions.

The antiparticle energy activation module is composed of an antiparticle capture device and an antiparticle activation device.

It can obtain temporary high-energy output of the spacecraft energy system by capturing and activating antiparticles to support the energy loss of large weapons.

As for the other energy stabilizer, Chen Ming initially thought it was related to the radiation energy system.

But as he was studying, he suddenly remembered that this was actually a hot research topic thirty years ago.

How can energy weapons cause substantial hard auxiliary energy growth to the target spacecraft.

Due to its own nature, energy weapons can only cause soft radiation energy to increase when hitting the shield of the spacecraft.

And energy weapons have their own powerful space combat performance and excellent radiation energy output ratio, so humans cannot abandon it at all.

So this topic has been enduring.

Unexpectedly, there is really a result thirty years later.

The effect of the energy stabilizer is very simple. All energy weapons, whether they are restrained energy bombs or direct energy beams, will be stabilized by the stabilizer.

At the expense of the range of energy weapons, the projectiles and beams of energy weapons produce an effect similar to the properties of solid elasticity.

Of course, this stabilizer also requires a lot of radiation energy to support it.

Coupled with the consumption of spacecraft weapons, the Armor-Breaker class has such a top-level radiation energy system.

But it is precisely because of this radiation energy system that the Armor-Breaker class has a considerable compression of the space inside the spacecraft in its design.

The space occupied by all the internal cabins on this 145-meter Armor-Breaker class is less than half of the volume of the spacecraft.

Under such a design, the volume of the control cabin of the Armor-Breaker class is naturally reduced, and the control equipment of the control cabin is also quite streamlined, so it has high requirements for the actual control of the spacecraft.

However, this is a design that is very suitable for Chen Ming.

Anyway, as long as the control of the spacecraft is in hand, no matter whether Chen Ming can drive it well or not, he will definitely be able to drive it, and only one person is needed to make all the equipment of the spacecraft run normally.

He can't feel the impact of the small control cabin at all.

In short, although the armor-piercing class has the disadvantages of difficult spacecraft control and weak spacecraft armor, these disadvantages cannot completely cover up its strongest point.

A large weapon with top-notch technology and equipment that can be installed on a destroyer.

Chen Ming has seen the actual effects of large weapons several times.

From the space station with several space arms cut off, to the military outpost that was half destroyed, to the two military ships that wanted to attack Chen Ming's refractive class that were annihilated by the high-energy particle torrent.

He knew very well how much a large weapon could do, and also understood the significance of a large weapon installed on a destroyer.

Chen Ming was determined to get this armor-piercing ship.

In addition, Chen Ming actually found some places that could be modified on the armor-piercing class.

The design of the armor-piercing class is indeed quite high-level, but Chen Ming still found some traces on the spacecraft that the professional designers of Xinda Company reduced in the design of the spacecraft for mass production.

Chen Ming can completely modify these places, making them more powerful and suitable for him.

But only these places that were compromised for mass production can be modified by Chen Ming.

Other places cannot be modified at all with Chen Ming's current technology.

This is the technical deficiency. Chen Ming's technology is now somewhat unable to keep up with the strength of his spacecraft.

He now needs to learn some new knowledge, otherwise he always feels that in the future his technology will not be able to keep up with the improvement of spacecraft technology, leading to a situation where he can't change it even if he wants to.

If Chen Ming can't bring out his spiritual power and the most powerful transformation effect on his panel, then he might as well find a spiritual stone to kill himself.

This matter also needs to be arranged on the schedule.

Chen Ming went through all his thoughts in his mind, and then carefully browsed the panel of the armor-breaking class. After confirming that there was nothing missing, he turned off its panel.

Then he put the picture scanned by the armor-breaking class sensor in front of him.

When the armor-breaking class was placed in the exhibition hall, it was already loaded with a part of fuel, and the system of the spacecraft was always turned on.

Therefore, Chen Ming can directly see the current location of the armor-breaking class and its situation through the spacecraft sensor.

Just when Chen Ming looked over through the sensor.

The armor-breaking class has now been transported out of the exhibition hall and sent to a place that should be a repair shop.

There was a spaceship engineer wearing a Sinda company uniform commanding a dozen ordinary maintenance technicians, operating the various equipment in the maintenance plant that looked more complex and professional than the maintenance plant on the space station, and was repairing the armor-piercing class.

Just as Chen Ming was about to take a look at the surrounding situation and determine the location of the armor-piercing class.

A very strong man in a guard uniform walked in from the side gate of the maintenance plant.

It was the person who just found Chen Ming and Lao Wu and took them away safely from the scene.

The engineer of Xinda Company noticed him immediately, greeted him and said, "Deputy Director Lin, how have you been recently?"

"Still the same, but I'll be busy for a while."

Deputy Director Lin walked quickly to the engineer, looked at the armor-piercing class in front of him and asked, "How is the spacecraft?"

"You and I are old friends, are you still worried about me doing things?"

The engineer reached out and patted the armor of the armor-piercing class and said, "It has been repaired. The previous damage has little impact. It can be accepted immediately."

Deputy Director Lin nodded slightly as he looked at the busy people next to him, and suddenly took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for himself, and then handed another one to the engineer.

The engineer took it skillfully, but did not rush to draw it. Instead, he suddenly asked curiously, "I heard that you asked us to put the Armor-Breaking Class at the auction to attract Zuo Jing's attention?"

Deputy Director Lin did not hide it from the engineer and said, "Yes."

"The technology of this Armor-Breaking Class is one of the most advanced technologies in your company now, which is enough to attract Lude Zuo Jing to be interested in the spacecraft."

"We hope to use it as bait to attract Zuo Jing's people, so as to eliminate Zuo Jing's personnel lurking in the colony. Even if we can't completely eradicate them, we can at least stop their actions for a while."

The engineer briefly greeted the work of the maintenance technician next to him, and then continued to ask, "But I heard that Zuo Jing didn't fall for it. In fact, the people who came to find the Armor-Breaking Class Is it also their bait?"

"Yes, but it doesn't matter."

"In addition to your armor-piercing ship, we have also specially designed several high-tech targets."

"Establish a priority ranking based on the value of different targets to determine the order of our team's support."

"Even if we didn't find that Zuo Jing, who was looking for the armor-piercing class, was just a bait, the guard troops who set out to support would immediately abandon the exhibition hall and go to the real place under attack."

"The loss of the exhibition hall and the armor-piercing class is nothing to us."

The engineer suddenly asked meaningfully: "The loss of more than 200 dead people is nothing?"

Deputy Director Lin's face, which Chen Ming thought was quite kind, suddenly showed a cold smile.

"Death is actually a good thing for us. I hope more people will come to the auction in person."

When someone dies, the money will definitely flow to other places. When the money flows, there will be opportunities to make some money from it.

Although Deputy Director Lin did not say this, the engineer and Chen Ming who was eavesdropping understood this very well.

Deputy Director Lin was silent for a while, then suddenly took out the terminal and looked at it, saying: "The large weapon installed for the armor-piercing has been sent to the maintenance plant. I'll trouble you to install it later."

"What have you prepared? Tachyon Spear?"

"Tachyon Technology Company has no intention of selling the new Tachyon Spear for the time being. We directly used our self-developed weapon, the automatic pulse laser."

"It doesn't sound good."

"Fancy names are never important, what matters is the effect."

"The actual combat test of the spacecraft will be carried out in the Galo-2 star zone. The Afterglow Fleet there has been quite active recently, so we can go and deal with it."

"Who will drive this spacecraft later?"

"Me."

"Not bad, you haven't fallen behind?"

"It's just a destroyer, and I've never fallen behind."

Chen Ming's expression on his face was a little bit tense at this time.

Not only because the star zone where the spacecraft was tested by Deputy Director Lin happened to be the star zone where the pirate space station was located.

Or it was because Chen Ming had never expected that this spaceship was originally designated for the government to fish for the Lud Left Path.

In the end, it was assigned to Deputy Director Lin to drive it, and it was about to be tested.

Chen Ming couldn't help but have a headache about this.

Because according to this process, after the weapons of the spaceship are installed, it will most likely be directly activated and come to the star area where the pirate space station is located to find Yu Hui for testing.

Chen Ming has no objection to the government's trouble with Yu Hui.

But this armor-piercing class will probably be officially put into service after the test.

The difficulty of taking the spaceship away can be said to have increased significantly.

In this case, Chen Ming must spend more energy on this, and he must keep an eye on the armor-piercing class and find the right time to take the ship away.

Deputy Director Lin talked to the engineer, smoked a cigarette, and left immediately.

It seems that he is still very busy, and now he just took time out of his busy schedule to confirm the situation of the spaceship.

After the people left, Chen Ming didn't have much to see, so he directly asked the armor-piercing class to start recording and recorded all the situations in the repair shop.

The spacecraft maintenance work directed by the engineers of Xinda Company and the installation of large weapons are all very valuable to Chen Ming.

I can learn from it later.

Moreover, Chen Ming has the ability to leave no records on the armor-piercing computer. He is not afraid of doing this.

After the armor-piercing computer is done, Chen Ming still has something to confirm.

That is the terminal found on the body of Shen Yi, a member of Lude Zuojing.

It didn't take Chen Ming too much time to crack the terminal.

However, the content inside made Chen Ming look carefully for a long time.

In his terminal, there is a list.

A list that records a large number of Zuojing personnel information.

It details the identity information and the location of Zuojing members.

It seems that Shen Yi has been collecting information about Zuojing, including the informants of Zuojing who have cooperated with him, which are all recorded on it.

Chen Ming browsed it and found that there are signs of activities of Zuojing people in nearly a hundred colonies or space stations centered on the star field capital here.

There are several people from Zuojing who were found out by Shen Yi at the pirate space station where Chen Ming is, and there are even two members of Zuojing at the military outpost closest to the pirate space station.

Unfortunately, the only two pieces of information on the list that are valuable to Chen Ming are the list of Zuojing personnel at the space station and the military outpost.

The other lists of personnel are useless to Chen Ming.

But this list is different for the government.

They should be in urgent need of this thing.

Chen Ming deleted the list of personnel at the military outpost closest to the pirate space station.

He plans to send this revised list to his boss later.

It is impossible for Chen Ming to contact the government.

Because he is now a nobody in front of the government.

Not only will he not get any benefits from giving this list out, he might even get stuck.

But if he lets the boss who has some connection with the government come, Chen Ming doesn't have to consider these issues.

The boss will definitely maximize the benefits of this list.

After determining the destination of Shen Yi's list.

Chen Ming actually had something else on hand that could be considered a gain this time.

It was the explosive that he had dismantled by using the panel, which was so powerful that it could even blow up Baiyun Steel armor.

The material ratio inside was completely clear when Chen Ming disassembled the explosive bundle.

They are basically common materials, only one or two are relatively rare. When he returns to the space station, he can buy equipment to debug and study it himself.

If he doesn't try to use such a good explosive, it would be a shame for Chen Ming to take the risk to disassemble the explosive just now.

If he can get a result, maybe the explosive he researched can be used when modifying the self-destructing spacecraft.

As Chen Ming stored all the things on Shen Yi's terminal and the material ratio of the explosives on the computer of the Iron Ore.

Chen Ming also knew that everything he did here was almost done.

He came out at the beginning just to pay a bounty, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

Fortunately, the matter was resolved smoothly, and he shouldn't encounter any more trouble after returning.

Chen Ming thought silently in his heart.

Even if the attitude of the company's upper management is unclear, at least on the space station, the management bureau will definitely not trouble him, and the factory director will definitely try his best to protect him.

And Chen Ming thinks the boss's words are the same.

He should also give Chen Ming some protection.

But Chen Ming can't take this for granted.

Chen Ming and the factory director are friends, and they are also bound together by interests.

So Chen Ming can entrust his safety to the factory director to a certain extent, even if the factory director needs to make some sacrifices.

But for the boss, Chen Ming is just a psychic.

The boss took the initiative to make friends with Chen Ming because Chen Ming is a psychic, but this friendship must have a certain limit, and it is not a good thing to exceed it.

So Chen Ming must find a way to repay the favor he owes.

The list he was going to give the boss just now is a way to repay the favor.

One-sided friendship is definitely not long-term, and mutual exchanges are the basis for a stable relationship.

Chen Ming plans to go back to the boss to ask if there is anything he can do.

But before that, Chen Ming has to finish the things he didn't finish before he came out.

Chen Ming's leaving the space station to come to the Star Region Capital to submit the bounty was only a temporary idea at first, because the boss suddenly returned the pirate leader to him.

So there are still some things waiting for Chen Ming to complete on the space station.

The Mule class has only been half-transformed, and the transformation of the self-destructing sentinel has not yet begun.

In addition, Chen Ming is actually considering going to hunt pirates for bounties for the second time.

However, Chen Ming only asked for two days of leave from the factory manager, and there is still renovation work in the repair shop that Chen Ming needs to do, which also takes some time.

Wait, Chen Ming suddenly remembered at this time.

Since Lao Wu knew from the boss that he was a psychic, the factory manager who has a good relationship with the boss should also know it.

In other words, the factory manager should have known that Chen Ming’s weird renovation technology was actually psychic, and giving Chen Ming a free work place and free work time in the middle was completely to cooperate with him.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming found that he seemed to have no need to pretend, and he could even get a large number of refurbished weapons at one time in front of the factory manager.

Then release them and sell them slowly. Selling too much at one time will definitely affect the market.

In this way, the second hunt for pirates can be delayed a little.

Do things one by one according to priority.

A few days should be enough.

By then, the factory manager should have asked the company's upper management about the situation and they should have gotten back.

Regardless of the company's attitude, Chen Ming could choose a path to take.

Chen Ming simply arranged a plan to go back.

During the remaining time waiting for the government's report, he simply read the technical book that Tachyon Technology got from Lao Wu to teach apprentices.

A few hours later.

Chen Ming and Lao Wu gathered next to the government building again and got the bounty of the four pirates that Chen Ming brought.

Chen Ming gave Lao Wu one-tenth of the bounty as he had said before, a total of three million.

The remaining twenty-seven million went into Chen Ming's card, giving Chen Ming a big boost.

The available money suddenly returned to the previous level of nearly fifty million.

With the money in hand, Chen Ming no longer had a reason to stay in the capital of the star region.

He simply controlled several spacecraft to leave the colony space station and embarked on the route of the pirate space station.

At the same time.

Inside the pirate space station.

Tian Jiwen suddenly woke up from his deep sleep and found himself in a hotel-style room, tied to a chair.

Tian Jiwen remembered that he had just randomly found a bar to drink last night, and the wine there was particularly strong, so he kept drinking until he blacked out.

When he woke up, he was here.

He was extremely panicked at this time, but he didn't dare to make any moves.

Because he only saw two strong men in the room through the hair that hung down to block his eyes.

If he had known that he would encounter such a thing, he would never drink too much.

Fortunately, the two strong men did not pay attention to him. Instead, there was a sound of the door being pushed open at the door of the hotel room.

Tian Jiwen continued to observe the situation through the hair covering his eyes.

Soon, the three people who had just pushed the door open came to the room where Tian Jiwen was imprisoned.

The leader of the three said to the others in the room: "The person has been contacted."

"But he is usually only responsible for investigating the situation of the patrol team. He doesn't know much about the space station, so there is no result."

"And the patrol team and the space station management bureau are separate, and they don't communicate with each other at all. This really surprised me."

"I heard that there was another one who was arranged to come in recently, but the superiors didn't let me use him."

"But it's not a big problem. If I ask this question, the superiors will definitely know that we are working."

The leader said, turning his eyes to Tian Jiwen and continued: "If we investigate this person thoroughly, our mission should have a result."

"He looks like he has woken up."
