Chapter 281 Hathaway's Annihilation Ship
"Not bad!" Victoria's tone carried a hint of respect.
Its full name is "Hathaway's Annihilation Ship!"
"It is a huge war platform, tens of thousands of meters long, like a mobile fortress."
Its core function is subspace travel—it can carry a large number of people and supplies to move long distances in the starry sky.
Its speed far exceeds that of any airship, and far surpasses that of any mechanical creation you've ever seen.
Furthermore, it possesses considerable destructive power; its main cannon can unleash attacks comparable to those of a demigod!
Ron's mouth gaped wider and wider as he listened.
Is this still the Middle Ages?
They're still whipping serfs over there.
You've even got starships here!
Are all you magicians this arrogant?
Ron was considering whether he should also build a legion of mages.
His previous small academy was completely useless.
However, Victoria ignored Ron's shock and continued:
"The person in charge of this project is Hathaway, a genius level three alchemist who also comes from our magic empire."
She eventually settled in the academic city, where she built a large research team.
Dozens of heavy industry laboratories and alchemy factories specialize in the combination of mechanical creation and magical technology.
The Annihilation Battleship was their most important and largest project.
This project has been going on for over a century and could have been implemented long ago.
However, with the emergence of various technologies, such as subspace travel stabilization and main gun magic energy conduction loops, there has been continuous updates and iterations.
The required materials and technologies are also increasing.
Fortunately, her research has attracted the attention of the Citadel and the Magic Empire.
Both parties are willing to provide substantial support for this project.
So in the end, it became a three-way collaborative project.
In recent years, as the team has conquered the world of machinery, they have also gained a lot of technical inspiration from it.
They were even given the remains of the Storm Dragon God to study.
Finally, the Dragon Emperor Dimension, modeled after the Storm Dragon God, upgraded the main cannon of the giant ship.
That's what reached the standard of a demigod-level strike.
They also absorbed a lot of other technologies, such as propulsion devices and energy block manufacturing techniques.
This allowed the project to be implemented more quickly.
Ron was so shocked he was speechless. He asked:
"Has it been built yet?"
Victoria nodded and held up two fingers:
"Currently, two ships have been built in physical form, and one is an experimental prototype constructed in the laboratory."
"The other one is a standard product that has been built, and all future ships will be manufactured according to this model."
The shipyard expansion has been completed, and the first batch of mass production has begun.
However, the first batch of annihilation behemoths was naturally monopolized by the Magic Empire.
The benefits that were distributed during this Tyron meeting.
These are the slots for the second batch of annihilation behemoths.
Seeing Victoria's high regard for the Annihilation Ship, Ron asked a question:
"Are you robbing me?"
"It's very expensive. It's an auction, with a starting price of 500,000 Tier 1 energy stones!" Victoria added.
"The second batch will be produced in cooperation with a business alliance, and the output will increase slightly."
"A total of twelve ships; the Magic Empire will no longer participate."
Ron was speechless when he heard the price.
Five hundred thousand for a Tier 1 energy stone—that's just the starting bid. The final price will probably skyrocket.
Energy stones are roughly equivalent to biological crystal cores.
It seems that the 800,000 crystal cores that Ron prepared are really not enough.
This was never intended for a small kingdom.
Even some large kingdoms would have to empty most of their resources to conquer them.
His target customers are clearly the Knights Alliance, the Glory Empire, and the Commercial Federation.
Other forces are just there to make up the numbers.
It's no wonder Ron thinks this way; even if several major kingdoms wanted it, they wouldn't have enough time to raise the money.
In the end, it would be good if one or two people could win the bid.
Victoria seemed to read his mind and added:
"Don't worry too much about those companies. They've already divided it up internally, with each company having three ships."
They'll all be acquired starting at 500,000.
"The last three were the ones put up for auction."
"These companies can only continue bidding if the item fails to sell at auction."
Ron understood, and he revealed the amount of money he had prepared to Victoria.
After hearing this, Victoria frowned slightly.
"It's still a bit risky. I have about 60,000 to 70,000 energy stones and a few third-tier crystal cores here. You can use them first."
"This is a great opportunity; if you miss it, you'll have to wait for the next batch."
Ron hadn't actually seen the item, so he wasn't really that keen on buying it; he preferred to convert his wealth into his own fighting power.
I'm not particularly interested in these man-made products that sound amazing.
I only asked one question:
When will the next batch be available?
Victoria had seen the actual product and knew quite a bit about it, so she still wanted Ron to buy it as soon as possible.
"It'll be at least thirty years from now!!"
"The construction period alone will take twenty years, even if more manpower is added later, and the industry becomes more mature."
The time won't be reduced much.
The Annihilation Ship was simply too enormous, and could be considered the number one magical mechanical creation of the present day.
The construction was extremely difficult, and the construction period was measured in decades.
Victoria noticed Ron's hesitation and changed her approach, letting Ron choose for himself:
"Of course, if you miss this opportunity, I can definitely get you a spot in the next batch, but the timing is uncertain."
After listening to Victoria's explanation, Ron already had a good idea of what was going on.
She would never harm herself, hence her strong recommendation.
Then let's bid with all our might!
