Doomsday: I Build a Space Fleet

Chapter 211 Design completed, construction begins

Over the next two days, a round, white robot appeared in their design studio. Bai Zhi did not interfere with their design tasks, but only woke them up at lunch and dinner time, while also helping them maintain a normal routine.

As time goes by, a 4-ton warship with a unique design and a huge amount of upgrade potential is being gradually improved.

On the third night, the design of the next-generation flagship was nearing completion. Luo Lin and Ouyang Nian bribed Bai Zhi, and then the two began working through the night to finish the flagship's design.

On the morning of the fourth day at 9 a.m., Lin Shu waited in the cafeteria for more than an hour, but Luo Lin and Ouyang Nian did not appear. Finally, he realized that something was wrong.

Just as she was angrily preparing to leave the restaurant and head to the design studio to find the two men, the two men, unsteady on their feet, listless yet with a hint of excitement, swayed and staggered into the restaurant.

With a "plop," the two sat down at the dining table, picked up the warm white porridge on the table, and gulped it down. Then, in a few bites, they ate the sandwich with braised meat next to them.

"Hiccup, sis, hehe, mission accomplished. Cleveland will remind us to change ships later, but let me sleep for a bit before then... Whew~"

Ouyang Nian's voice grew weaker and weaker, and then he slumped onto the iron dining table with a thud, falling asleep just like that.

At this moment, Bai Jin, who had received Bai Zhi's message, arrived at the restaurant. Seeing the two people sleeping soundly on the table, she could only sigh helplessly.

Then, the two women looked up at each other, picked up the two troublesome fellows, and put them back into their respective cabins.

At 1 p.m., Lorraine was awakened by hunger from his deep sleep. He sat up unsteadily on the bed and stared blankly into space.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I supposed to do?

Before his thoughts could wander any further, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Although his voice was somewhat weak, Cleveland recognized it. Then, the steel door of the cabin slowly opened with the help of a motor, and Cleveland appeared at the cabin door carrying a light and nutritious lunch.

"Is it lunchtime yet?"

Platinum, who was carrying lunch to the bedside, sighed softly after hearing Lorraine's murmur.

She then placed the tray on the bedside table, dragged over a chair, and sat down in front of the bed.

"Ah, let's eat."

As Lorraine ate his hot meal, his mental state gradually returned to normal.

Seeing Lorraine's silly grin, Platinum put down her cutlery and raised her hand.

But in the end, she simply poked Lorraine's forehead and tried to dissuade him.

"There's still time, but don't try to catch up on the schedule by harming your health. If you get sick, we don't have the medical resources to help you recover quickly."

"Don't worry, there definitely won't be a next time."

Hearing Lorraine's assurance, Platinum narrowed his long eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and nodded, but secretly he was considering whether to put a health monitoring bracelet on the two of them, so that they wouldn't cause any more trouble.

"Pack your things. The flagship has already docked in port, and the offshore work platform is on standby outside, ready to begin upgrading the flagship at any time."

Lorraine nodded, threw off the covers and stood on the cabin floor, then pulled a small suitcase out from under the bed.

After getting dressed and tidying himself up, he dragged his suitcase out of his cabin and headed straight for the maintenance room. Only after putting on his power armor did he climb the boarding ladder to the ground.

The four then boarded a hovercraft and arrived at the amphibious assault ship's landing command center.

Because this upgrade is assisted by two additional secondary nanocores, it can be completed in just 90 hours.

Upon arriving at the integrated command center, Ouyang Nian and Luo Lin were momentarily at a loss as to what to do.

Ouyang Nian chose this location because there were no suitable production facilities available, while Lorraine chose it because the city of Ain had been completely cleared out by the unmanned combat group two days prior.

Looking out the porthole, you can see some unmanned construction machinery clearing debris from the ground.

Before he knew it, Lorraine had taken out the data board again and started studying the flagship's design blueprints. However, the data board showed the flagship after the axial cannon was installed.

The design also includes hints from Cleveland.

[Insufficient space inside the ship prevents the establishment of a Level 5 hydroponic farm.]

Lorraine tapped absently on the console desktop, his mind racing as he pondered how to solve these problems.

"Since the flagship has limited space, I'll just build another ship."

However, building a dedicated ship just for a hydroponic farm was a bit extravagant. So, Lorraine and Ouyang Nian got together and started thinking about what facilities should be installed inside the ship.

"Got it."

Ouyang Nian clenched his left fist and slammed it into his right palm, then pointed to a 2-ton ship in the fleet and said.

"Why don't we just build a supply ship with production capabilities?"

"It's feasible, and the upgraded flagship seems to have the ability to produce secondary nanocores, so the ship can also produce weapons and ammunition."

The two hit it off immediately and got to work. However, just as they were about to begin, they discovered two problems that urgently needed to be solved.

"How do I create an anti-gravity unit? There's no information about it in the database."

"Okay, let's reserve space for the anti-gravity unit and its power supply system first, just like that heavy cruiser. Let's design the rest first."

"After all, given the upgraded flagship's capacity, the maximum battery life should be able to reach 60 days."

"Food can be transported by landing craft or helicopter."

"Most importantly, this supply ship is an auxiliary vessel prepared for the Tier 5 flagship, and its construction priority is not very high. We have plenty of time to design and adjust it."

"With our current production capacity, can we produce enough steel?"

After all, all the steel used in the flagship comes from the mines near the shipyard and that small smelter.

Meanwhile, the zombies in Kauna City are being cleared, the smelters around the city have not yet been cleared, and the existing mines are unable to transport raw materials into the city via the railway that is under repair.

The steel smelter near the port of Ain City has not resumed operations, although engineering robots have been dispatched to inspect and maintain the facilities.

Moreover, a significant number of engineering robots are needed for this steel smelter to return to full-capacity operation.

The mines around Aion City have been occupied, but there are no suitable unmanned transport vehicles. The heavy-duty transport platforms that are currently moving along the rails are all brought from Red Peak Island, but their maximum load capacity is only 2.3 tons.
