The group was filled with excitent, as Lin Xian exchanged surprised glances with Chen Sixuan and KIKI before heading towards Factory No. 1. Before entering, the dense swarm of robots could already be seen moving in and out in an orderly fashion above their heads, with countless sounds of chanical assembly and welding rising and falling.
As Lin Xian and his companions stepped into Factory No. 1, they couldn’t help but hold their breath for a mont.
This factory wasn’t just a workshop; it could be described as a man-made canyon. The steel supports on either side were like towering giant trees, supporting the curved do. In the center of the canyon, an enormous structure with an epic sense of grandeur lood towards them!
The entire body was covered in black starship armor, with its over 2000-ter-long dark hull spanning the entire assembly area. It was difficult to associate this with a ’train’; it was entirely a large floating starship.
The most peculiar thing was that this massive structure was divided into four modules. Despite the differences in size and shape, once connected, it resembled an interstellar heavy sword unsheathed, daunting to behold.
"Wow, is this a train?" Sha Sha’s eyes widened.
"This is even larger than a Far Star-class starship." Shu Qin said in shock.
At this mont, whether Da Lou, Liang Lei, or Luo Yang and Li Yi, they were all incredibly amazed. The younger generation, like Miao Lu, Lv Chang, and Xiao Yuan, were too astonished to speak.
"So impressive, I love it." Lu Xingchen, with a bold look in his eyes, said to Lin Xian, filled with overwhelming emotion, "Brother Lin, let’s board this ship and venture into the vast sky, sailing towards that endless star..."
"Don’t get carried away just yet."
KIKI raised her hand to interrupt him, looking at the black starship, and asked, "Can this thing run on the track?"
"Absolutely." Lao Mo looked upwards with emotion, pointing to the two strange black energy guide slots below the starship: "Those are called track bows, capable of generating their magnetic levitation force fields to adhere and operate along the Star Orbital. The Star Orbital was originally designed to utilize magnetic levitation and the Horizon Gate device, so it is entirely feasible."
"That’s right."
The old engineer next to Jian Xuwei introduced at this mont: "The initial construction plan for the Star Orbital was ant for the space up above, used for building the Wangyue Planet Ring. The Wangyue Planet Ring serves as both a space city and the transit station connected to the Moon, and the Sky Do Interstellar Train was designed for transporting materials between the Earth and Moon with high efficiency. However, limited by the technology and so issues with regional cooperation at the ti, the Wangyue Planet Ring opted for the equatorial space elevator plan. The current Star Orbital is considered the ground Phase I project, and global magnetic levitation transportation has greatly improved its efficiency."
"Now this Sky Do-level Interstellar Giant Structure Train, codenad ’Ark-7’, has its core hull divided into four parts. The first is the Core Drive Ship No. 1, which houses the defensive weapons and main control of the intelligent center system. Then there’s the Function Ship No. 2, containing the orbit guidance, Star Navigation System, and gravitational ring. The 5,000-gawatt Star Driver-class Nuclear Power Core of the Sky Do Train is here, but the gravitational ring hasn’t been completed yet. It also contains the Low Temperature Hibernation Chamber and Civilization Embryo Room to store nurous supplies. Ship No. 3 is the crew living area and the main starship bridge, mainly for the maintenance and technical crew of the interstellar train. Lastly, there’s Power Chamber No. 4, housing eight Eternal Star Sky Propulsion Devices; even a 500,000-ton Far Star-class starship only has four!"
The old engineer adjusted his glasses and continued: "In addition, because it’s for transportation, including the floating engines and 2,000 propulsion arrays, the rear of this combined interstellar giant structure train can connect more than 1,000 of the standard hull modules you saw earlier. If these hull modules are used for habitation, each can house at least a thousand people!"
"So why is it called a train..." Lin Xian didn’t understand, but he was greatly astounded.
"I already ntioned it, it can run along the track." Jian Xuwei calmly said at this ti: "In an extre scenario, as long as the structure allows, it could drag all your trains directly to the sky."
"Isn’t that crazy?" Shi Deyuan said with a chuckle: "Our trains don’t have floating engines, being dragged up would be like a rope."
"I was just describing it that way." Jian Xuwei explained while looking at Lin Xian: "Although it can’t fly now, if you consider this as the traction vehicle for the Star Orbital, there won’t be track issues. If we could, we’d form an alliance, crossing the Pacific Ocean together, and perhaps one day breaking through the Heavenly Veil curtain, you would be equally qualified to do so."
"I think it sounds great." Qian Deli stepped forward first, smiling at Lin Xian: "Lin Xian, count in; I want a room with a porthole."
"Then I will operate the Orbit Shock Star Cannon!" Sha Sha excitedly raised her hand, her face full of eagerness.
"Then I’ll handle the information center!" KIKI giggled.
"I’ll take care of the helm!" Luo Yang volunteered.
"Haha, then I’ll be the chief engineer!" Lao Mo said with a laugh.
"Oh, with a setup like this, there’s no need for to bother upgrading Dragon Mountain No.1." Shi Deyuan crossed his arms, looking at Lin Xian: "Brother Lin, let’s ally with Da Lou; there’s strength in numbers, what do you say?"
At that mont, everyone was full of excitent, and after seeing this gigantic interstellar train, they were all extrely eager.
These people had experienced desperation, trapped beneath the orbit in the Star Abyss, but with the world currently veiled by the Heavenly Veil, this track-operating, air-floating, heavily-ard, multi-functional interstellar battleship was simply a tailor-made end-ti safety hub for them!
