Otherworld Girl Development Guide

If a photon shield can withstand a 125mm penetration missile, then the shrapnel and armor-piercing rods of a heavy anti-aircraft missile are no longer lethal. After all, the kinetic energy carried by the shrapnel and rods of an anti-aircraft missile cannot compare with the kinetic energy carried by a 125mm penetration missile.

After the 125mm smoothbore cannon ceased firing, the academician quickly went forward to check the status of the photon printer. After all, the collapse of the riveted photon printer was not like that of normal armor; it would trigger a chain reaction, instantly collapsing like a sand sculpture submerged by waves.

"How's the data?"

"Still within acceptable limits..."

"Alright, let's continue the test!"

The 125mm smoothbore cannon withstood the attack, but it wasn't enough. Soon, a wheeled 155mm howitzer truck laid the 155mm howitzer flat and fired at the photon printer.

boom!

Compared to a 125mm tank gun, a 155mm howitzer is more powerful, a heavy artillery piece firing horizontally!

The shell slammed into the photonic printer, and a violent flash of light erupted. The photonic printer withstood the bombardment of the 155mm cannon... However, the test hardly stopped. The 155mm truck-mounted cannon continued to fire at the photonic printer, testing its threshold.

As for the more powerful 300mm rocket launcher and anti-ship missiles, they were not included in this test, but the performance they have shown so far is already very encouraging.

After all, this is the simplest version of the legendary "energy shield technology". In the future, it will not only rely on armor resistance, but also have an energy shield outside the armor, which greatly enhances the survivability of the vehicle!

Armor resistance has its limits, unless it's like the armor of the Amarr Empire in EVE, which can withstand the bombardment of antimatter orbital missiles!

1000 seconds passed quickly. In the end, the 155mm truck-mounted cannon almost emptied its ammunition, while the photon printer only overheated slightly. This made the academician frown slightly, wondering if there was any way to further squeeze the performance of the photon printer. After all, it could generate a temperature range itself. It would be too wasteful not to use this low temperature to cool itself. Even capitalists would cry if they saw it.

Although the results are encouraging, photon printers can only be considered a basic level of shield technology. The photon walls they print can only be flat, rather than wrapping the objects to be protected like in science fiction movies.

According to the academicians' ideas, the kind of energy shield that can envelop a space warship would require miniaturizing the photon printer, turning it into a hexagonal shape, and then splicing them together to form a complete shield... or perhaps some remarkable achievement in the future will change the way photons are anchored.

When will this thing be deployed on the ship?

The naval leader looked at the researchers inspecting the photon printer in the distance and asked in a low voice.

Although it has significant drawbacks, it is very suitable for warships. By deploying one or two of them on a warship, the warship will have an extra layer of insurance in addition to the 1130 as the last "gatekeeper"!

It greatly increases the survivability of warships. Frigates may not be able to install it due to their size, but it is definitely worthwhile to install photon printers on high-value units such as 10,000-ton destroyers, amphibious assault ships, aircraft carriers, and the Pengkun aerospace platform!

"Uh...we'll have to wait a little longer."

Chapter 352 Undersea Workers

It takes a long time, sometimes even decades, for a technology developed in a laboratory to be industrialized.

Photonic printers are indeed beautiful and tempting, but it will take at least five years before they can be deployed on active-duty large warships...

This will be standard equipment on the next generation of warships, the last line of defense for warships, and standard equipment for future spacecraft.

At the Shangqiu Quantum Research Institute in the suburbs, researchers are using the Casimir effect to create a true quantum chip!

Currently manufactured quantum chips all have to be labeled "pseudo" because their computing speed is far inferior to that of true quantum chips...

--------------------------------------

"Port side, bearing 042, range 1000, anti-submarine rocket!"

After adjusting the launch angle, the anti-submarine rockets of the Type 054L corvette were launched towards the designated area.

shhhhhh!

A dense barrage of rockets flew towards the designated sea area. Upon approaching, the warheads of the anti-submarine rockets slammed into the water, striking the sea in an elliptical pattern, followed by plumes of water rising from the surface...

Two Type 054L frigates unleashed their full firepower to attack the sea monster attempting to approach from the left, while a Type 055L destroyer was coordinating and directing operations nearby.

The continuous explosions at sea had rendered the fleet's sonar ineffective... Only after the explosions ended and the noise from the seabed subsided could the specific results of the battle be known.

"Haven't the people down below come up yet?"

"Not yet, it will take at least 20 minutes..."

The fleet commander frowned slightly.

"Set up the defensive perimeter and suppress the sea monsters!"

"understand!"

In the rear hangar of the Type 055L destroyer, a Z-20H attack helicopter unfolded its folding turbine lifters on both sides, and then its small guided-drive engine started up. The turbofan then rapidly churned the air, and the Z-20H took off, flying towards the area where the sea monster was located.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters, the Chongming bird is monitoring the battlefield with its superior loiter capabilities, just like the multi-eyed Chongming bird, watching the real-time dynamics of the battlefield.

Suddenly, the electro-optical distributed aperture radar beneath the aircraft detected a shadow beneath the sea surface, and the shadow was quite large.

This message was immediately sent to the fleet's flagship via data link.

"Report from the ship's command: Chongming reports, bearing 076, distance 5200... large underwater target shadow detected..."

Large-scale? Upon seeing the intelligence sent back by Chongming, the ship commander's expression immediately changed.

Two hours ago...

"Wang Fugui, what are you doing? Time to get to work!"

"Alright, coming!"

Wang Fugui wrote today's diary entry in his notebook.

[On [Date], the weather was nice. This was our fourth day in the Abyss Sea. We earned 300,000 in four days, which was beyond our expectations...]

If something happens to me, all the money will go to my parents; the bank card PIN is my mother's birthday...

After finishing his diary, which was practically indistinguishable from a will, Wang Fugui locked it in his personal locker and then headed to the dressing room.

After working in the changing room for more than 20 minutes, I went to the medical room for a physical examination before going into the water.

After confirming that blood pressure, heart rate, body temperature and other data were all normal, I entered the psychological assessment room next door.

Working in the deep sea is no less demanding than conducting inspections during aerial flights. Not only must one be physically normal, but one's mind must also be normal... otherwise, if an accident occurs, rescue efforts in the deep sea would be extremely difficult.

After passing all the inspections, Wang Fugui entered the hangar and went into his iron ball. Because of his outstanding performance over a long period of time, a small red flower representing "model worker" had been stuck on his iron ball, which can be regarded as an affirmation of Wang Fugui's work.

"Here you are... Xiao Wang..."

The middle-aged technician in charge of maintaining the iron ball in the hangar greeted Wang Fugui.

"Hmm, how is it?"

Although the compensation for dying in the line of duty is substantial, no one wants to die at sea. Whether they can come back up alive after going into the sea depends not only on luck but also on the technicians' maintenance... After maintenance, even the presence or absence of a single screw on the workbench can raise their blood pressure.

"It's in good condition. We just replaced the hydraulic pliers with new ones; the old ones were a bit worn..."

"Okay, thanks. I'll treat you to something nice when I get paid."

Wang Fugui nodded and climbed into the cockpit of the iron ball. Maintenance personnel closed the hatch and then sealed the airtight door...

The ID card is inserted into the reader slot...

System startup...

[Recognizing...]

Welcome, Senior Underwater Engineer Wang Fugui...

The countdown has begun... Labor is the most glorious thing...

The alarm beeped in the hangar as the iron ball was transferred to the elevator and lifted up onto the deck.

Wang Fugui, inside the cockpit of the iron ball, checked the various instrument readings within the ball...

Once on the deck, a crane lifted it up and lowered it towards the turquoise sea.

During the descent, Wang Fugui checked the hydraulic clamps of the iron ball for any abnormalities in their closure and performed a final check on the instruments...

Splash... The familiar sound of the iron ball entering the water followed as it sank towards the seabed.

This underwater operation took place at a depth of 3200 meters in the deep sea, which is considered a rare deep-sea operation even in Wang Fugui's career.

Squeak... The carbon nanotube cable is very thin, but its strength far exceeds that of steel wire rope.

Wang Fugui turned his head to look at the other side of the iron ball, where another of his coworkers was greeting him with an underwater pulse lamp.

The depth display continuously updates the depth of the iron ball.

【1500...】

【1600...】

......

At this depth, sunlight can no longer penetrate, leaving only endless darkness enveloping the surroundings.

Having received professional psychological training, Wang Fugui has become accustomed to this environment and has his own way of dealing with negative emotions.

Reaching out to the control panel, I selected music to relax, and ultimately chose "Good Days" from the playlist. This song is particularly effective at dispelling negative emotions.

The prelude to a good day began to play in the cockpit.

Experts have discussed at length whether to provide a music playback function in the cockpit.

Navy experts believed the iron ball should be kept as quiet as possible, but they quickly realized that the iron ball was a civilian mining device and did not need to meet military requirements.

While music may attract some small marine animals, it can help people relax in the deep sea, and in special circumstances, it can even assist in underwater search and rescue operations.

Amidst the celebratory cheers of "Good Days," the iron ball sank to a depth of 3200 meters in the ocean.

[Wang Fugui announces: Homework begins...]

Safety is of paramount importance. Please follow the operating procedures.

Chapter 353 Underwater Discovery

There are countless rules for workplace safety, but regulations and rules are paramount!

With constant reminders from the iron ball system, Wang Fugui began his underwater work.

With a click, the ropes holding the iron ball automatically untied, and the iron ball was free at that moment.

Good luck...really good luck...

Amidst the celebratory sounds in the cockpit, the foreman signaled to Wang Fugui to keep up.

On the distant seabed, LED lights illuminate the seabed, and the navy has set up a defensive perimeter around the exploration site and deployed unmanned underwater vehicles in the surrounding area.

These intelligent underwater vehicles patrol the perimeter of the seabed and use passive sonar to listen for unusual sounds. Once they determine that the other party's voiceprint is not in the IFF identification list, the unmanned underwater vehicle will freely launch an attack on the target.

The sound of an explosion from an unmanned underwater vehicle can serve as an early warning mechanism, alerting sonar operators that something is approaching.
