If the news was received after Mengka left, it might take a little longer to rush all the way to City 18.

After all, Shi Xiaolei has not agreed to Mengka's proposal, and has not obtained the title of "Honorary Member of the Nova Corps". Just because he went to the front desk to apply, he may not be able to borrow a high-speed aircraft specially equipped for the members of the Nova Corps from the hotel. aircraft.

But now...

Mengka stayed by the side when he received the contact. He didn't need Shi Xiaolei's explanation, he had already understood what was going on, and he took the initiative to lend a helping hand, borrowing a high-speed aircraft from the hotel .

This thing is specially designed to allow members of the Nova Corps on vacation to rush back to the army as soon as possible. Although it is equipped in a service facility such as a hotel, it can be regarded as an authentic military product in terms of use. one. Compared with those aircraft on the market, its speed is obviously much faster.

In addition, this thing has the right of priority like a military vehicle, and the hotel assigned Shi Xiaolei an experienced driver at the request of Mengka...

It only took half an hour for Shi Xiaolei to arrive at No. 18 City, thousands of kilometers away, and entered the manufacturer's site without hindrance.

"It's here, let's land." The speed has dropped to about 40 yards, and the height is only about 200 meters. With Shi Xiaolei's eyesight, he saw Lilima waiting outside the dock at a glance.

"Okay, sir." With a promise, the pilot controlled the aircraft to land slowly.

Except for Lilima who had already been notified, no one else knew that this aircraft was Shi Xiaolei's temporary vehicle. After recognizing its real body, they thought it was someone from the Nova Corps who came to the door.

Not daring to be careless, they came to the gate of the dock neatly, and a large group of people put on a very respectful gesture.

"Hi, Lilima."

After getting off the aircraft, Shi Xiaolei greeted Lilima first, and then noticed the group of people waiting in line on the other side.

Sensing their slightly restrained and awe-inspiring eyes, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but feel a little strange, so Shi Xiaolei took advantage of the situation and asked Lilima who was meeting him: "Who are those people? What's wrong with them?"

Lilima laughed: "Mr. Locke, I really didn't expect you to come here in this kind of aircraft. I think it must be because of it that they misunderstood. Oh, by the way, they are people from this company, the team The one in the middle wearing black overalls is the engineering supervisor in charge of your spaceship."

"So that's the case." After figuring out what was going on, Shi Xiaolei scratched the back of his head and showed a simple and honest smile: "Let's go, go over and say hello to them."

While acknowledging the pilot who was still on the aircraft to leave first, Shi Xiaolei led Lilima and walked towards the group of people.

I won't go into details about greetings and greetings. In short, under the introduction of Lilima, the misunderstanding was quickly explained, and the two sides confirmed their identities.

The next step is to take Shi Xiaolei on board, and the engineering supervisor will be in charge, and introduce the spacecraft that will be delivered to him.

Let's start with the bridge where the most functions are concentrated.

Then there is the living area and entertainment area at the back.

Then there are warehouses for storing goods, which can be used as workspaces for temporary workshops, hydroponic farms and food processing centers for daily consumption on board, and functional blocks such as storage compartments for small vehicles.

The spaceship, shaped like a ray, is more than 1,700 meters long and about 800 meters wide at its widest point. Adding in the thickness of nearly a hundred meters...

The space inside is large enough to accommodate more than a dozen Bird's Nest stadiums at the same time.

I really want to visit all of them carefully. It may not be enough to spend a whole day.

"When I placed the order, I didn't think it was too big, but now I'm walking down this circle..." While continuing to walk along the passage, Shi Xiaolei said with emotion: "It's really big here, more spacious than I imagined. too much."

"Because it is not used for combat, it saves a lot of space for installing weapons and equipment, and according to your requirements, the space occupied by the warehouse is also relatively small." Hearing Shi Xiaolei's words, the engineering supervisor named Felice was very discerning. The son picked up the next question and gave an explanation with a smile: "That's why I got more room to display, expanded the other functional areas in the ship, and made more diverse and more refined designs. design."

"En." Nodding his head, Shi Xiaolei asked, "How is the defensive performance of this ship? Although I don't intend to use it as a battleship, if something happens, I still need some means of self-protection. Can you tell me about the equipment in this area?"

"No problem, this is my duty." Phyllis agreed, and began to introduce: "Actually ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ the place we are going to go next is the control center that controls the defense function of the spacecraft. There , not only installed the shield generator produced by us, but according to your request, we also installed two additional energy supply cores removed from the battleship, and a set of more powerful military-grade protection..."

According to my request? The power supply core removed from the battleship? More robust military-grade protective equipment?

It seems that I did not make such a request when I placed the order.

After recalling it very carefully, Shi Xiaolei still couldn't find the answer in his memory, on the contrary, he became more and more lost.

It wasn't until entering the control center, watching the monitoring screen displayed on the console, and listening to Felice's explanation, that Shi Xiaolei really understood what was going on—the equipment that wasn't on the original order, most likely belonged to Kerry. Products of technology... yes, they were all dismantled from the Kerry warships that Shi Xiaolei shot down and disabled. It was the Xandar people who wanted to reciprocate and create a surprise for Shi Xiaolei, that's why they sent these equipment that should have been considered contraband, and let the engineers under the manufacturer install them on the spaceship Shi Xiaolei ordered.

"This, this..." Shi Xiaolei was really touched by the intentions of the Xandar people.

"With these things, the self-protection ability of this spaceship can be said to have increased by more than ten times." Phyllis continued, perhaps because he was very excited after experiencing this situation for the first time: "So Let’s talk, if you didn’t say that you don’t need to install too many weapons and equipment, I would even want to install a few more main guns on this ship. With these two energy supply cores, I dare say that the corresponding With a main gun of the same specification, its combat capability will definitely not be much worse than that of a real battleship."
