The Death List Novel - Chapter 536
Chapter 536 The Universe Battleship Faith
After the Apostle finished changing their clothes, they were led out by their respective guides.
Qin Lun followed Vera to the back of the line, curiously looking at the universe warship beneath his feet. Compared to the flying warship of Qi Bolin in the previous divine melody world, the universe warship translated as faith feels almost invisible in space.
According to Vera’s explanation, this universe warship was converted into the measurements of the Earth Federation. In the end, the engine room was 50 kilometers away from the main cannon control room at the front. It was about 30 kilometers wide and about 10 kilometers high. The ship’s hull was slightly flat, and it was a Gemini warship.
The submarines on both sides were Terminator Lightning Magnetic Gunboats, and the core ship in the center was the Mother Soldier Ship. The main bridge and the crew living area were all located here. Not mentioning gunships and warship cabins, just the crew living area was equivalent to a medium-sized three-dimensional city.
Qin Lun and the others were walking in the corridor of the building. Every once in a while, there was a semi-circular metal ring handle in the corridor. According to Vera, the metal ring could temporarily immobilize a crew member who didn’t have enough time to take refuge in the event of a sudden enemy attack.
The metal floor of the passageway is equipped with an anti-skid plate in the middle, which is convenient for the warship crew to walk. There is an automatic slide on the left and right side of the wall, which is opposite to the direction of advance. A few Apostle stood up and tried. They discovered that the slide was equipped with sensors. As long as someone went up, the slide would speed up, which was equivalent to the normal walking speed of a Githian.
Through the square transparent windows in the corridor, Apostle discovered that they were in the middle of a hundred-story pillar-shaped building. Outside was a high-tech city with countless tall pillars.
However, unlike the three-dimensional cities of the Earth Federation, the interior of this universe warship had more than one living area. The buildings beneath the ship’s hull stood upwards, and there were also pillars hanging down from the ship’s hull, like stalagmites and stalactites in a giant karst cave.
Between these two-sided buildings, which were mostly hundreds of floors tall, countless transparent glass tracks spread out like glass rings, and water droplets of streamlined magnetic rail cars swiftly shuttled across them.
What shocked Apostle the most was that the bottom of these buildings, that is, the hull of the ship, was not just ordinary metal. These metals seemed to have the ability to map. They were like a giant screen that pierced through the starry sky outside the warship, causing everyone to feel as if they were in the starry sky at all times.
The mysterious stars flickering in the depths of the universe, the neon lights of the city, and the flickering shadows of the electromagnetic car mixed with the sense of dislocation in the boundless universe caused Apostle to feel as if their eyes were wide and divine, and their hearts were wide open.
“So beautiful!” The Apostle did not hesitate to give their compliments, but the Keith Beauty, who was in charge of leading them, was exceptionally calm, apparently accustomed to it, and had considerable immunity to the beauty of the starry sky.
After a short pause, everyone followed the Giselle Beauty forward once again. They didn’t stop until a thick metal gate sealed the corridor at the end of the corridor.
The female officer in charge of the team pressed her palm on the sensor beside the metal door, and the gate automatically slid open to both sides, revealing the completely closed and transparent track that Apostle had just seen through the window.
At the front of the track, there were a few water droplet-shaped magnetic rail cars. The Gissy Beauty brought everyone into the cars. Vera tapped a few times on a virtual screen projected from the car, and the track car began to speed up. The whole process was quiet and steady, and no noise could be heard from the engine.
Looking at Qin Lun who was looking around, Vera covered her mouth and chuckled. “This kind of track car doesn’t have a power system. It only has a projection panel that appears in the light brain and is used to adjust the destination.”
The magnetic rail car can accommodate four or five passengers. After sitting in the car, the transparent hatch closes automatically and turns black. Soft fluorescent lights are lit inside the car. This is to prevent the car from speeding too fast, and the view outside the hatch makes the passengers feel dizzy. The car seat is a kind of soft intelligent sponge, which can automatically adjust the sitting posture according to the different size, and take into account the role of shock absorption and security.
In just a few minutes, the light brain inside the magnetic rail car indicated that everyone had arrived at their destination. During the entire process, almost no one could sense the vibration of the car, as if they were still standing there.
Walking out of the rail car, Apostle found that they had indeed moved to another location, which was obviously different from the previous building, because the building was connected from the lower hull to the upper hull. Not only was it a full circle larger than the other buildings in the city, but there were also many magnetic track lanes connecting to the surface of the building. It was clearly one of the core buildings in the city.
“This is one of the few’heavenly pillars’ that can lead directly to the bridge and the cabin in the creed’s living quarters!” Vera whispered in Qin Lun’s ear, “The arriving Apostle Officer is the most precious combat strength of the Faith. The captain hopes that everyone can stay in the closest quarters to the cabin so that they can deal with any battle that may come at any time.”
“En!” Qin Lun nodded noncommittally. He turned around and asked, “Then the building we were in was …”
“Oh, that’s the Biochemical Research Institute that cultivates clones, and the hospital that treats the injured and sick!” Vera explained softly.
As Apostle chatted softly with the guides, they arrived at the upper and middle floors of the building and stopped in a spacious hall.
The area of the “Heavenly Pillar” layer seemed to be a little large. From the transparent windows, it looked like it had suddenly swollen up. The hall was oval in shape, with a row of numbered doors on the right, and several rooms marked with signs for medical examinations, fitness, entertainment and catering, as if they were specially designed for officers.
“Is this place specially prepared for us?” Qin Lun asked with a smile.
“En, this was originally one of the active areas of the Faith’s senior pilots. Now, it has been sorted out and made available to all of you, Commanders Apostle.” Vera blinked her eyes with excitement and said playfully, “I was originally just a preparatory pilot, so I’m not qualified to stay here. Now, thanks to your good fortune, I’m going to check in early.”
“You want to stay here too?” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows.
“Well, the rooms of the guides are next door to their respective officers. They can provide you with counseling and help as well as life assistants.” Vera said happily, “But this is the first time I’ve served Commander Apostle. If there’s anything wrong in the future, please include it!”
Just as everyone was discussing, a huge projection appeared on the smooth wall right in front of the hall. A tall Giese in military uniform appeared on the projection. Giese looked a little old, with a silver beard on his chin, a small medallion-like object on his chest, a golden badge on his hat, and a high-ranking position, as his self-introduction showed.
“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Faith. I am Captain Apostle!”
After Marcus, who claimed to be the captain of the Faith, appeared, the female officers immediately stopped talking and saluted. The Apostle didn’t feel anything. They just stared at the projection.
“We in Giese are honored to have your help at this critical juncture! On behalf of all the officers and men of the Faith, I would like to extend my highest respect and gratitude to all of you and sincerely hope that you will be victorious in the upcoming battles and fulfil your mission.”
Marcus paused for a moment before his gaze fell on the leading female officer. “Please forgive me for not being able to meet you for the time being because of my duty. If there is any inconvenience, please tell my adjutant, Dong Yue, that she will cooperate with you as much as possible!”
Out of the ten Giselle Beauties, the young female officer with the most mature face stepped forward at the right time and indicated to the Apostle that she was Dong Yue.
“Then … please familiarize yourself with the new environment and look forward to meeting you again!” After the projection on the wall flashed, the image of Marcus disappeared.
“This Captain Marcus looks very capable!” Qin Lun smiled and looked at Vera.
“Yes, Captain Marcus is a famous flying hero!” Vera, whose face was flushed red, shook her little fist excitedly. “We junior officers rarely see him.”
Qin Lun was slightly surprised, but he soon understood. The Universe Battleship Faith was as big as a city, and the captain was the supreme ruler. If it was the Earth Federation, the mayor of a city would not be someone ordinary people could see.
With a light sound, the metal door automatically slid open, revealing Qin Lun’s forthcoming military officer’s room.
“Officer Qin Lun, I have already entered your genetic signal into the sensor. When you enter or exit, just stick your palm to the sensor!” Vera waved her hand at Qin Lun at the door and said happily, “Rest first. Call me if you need anything. I’m in the next room!”
Just as Qin Lun raised his hand to say something, he saw that the beautiful girl could not wait to leave.
The metal door automatically closed behind her, leaving Qin Lun with a bare wall. She was obviously in a hurry to look at her room.
“Alright!” Qin Lun helplessly spread out his hands and turned to look at the officer’s office.
It was said to be the Senior Military Officer’s Office, but in reality, the arrangement inside was very simple. Bed is an intelligent dormancy cabin, with manual and intelligent two ways to open. Of course, the hatch did not have to be closed in time of war, and there were excellent temperature and humidity regulation systems in the room.
In addition to the resting compartment, there was an intelligent folding desk on the right side of the room with a mini-optic brain attached to the warship’s main brain.
In addition, on the left side of the room was a wardrobe that could be retracted into a metal wall. There were several spare military uniforms inside, as well as a space suit and a space helmet that could be used in space. This was probably a safety measure to prevent the crew from being directly exposed to outer space when the warship was damaged.
After examining the various items in the room, Qin Lun focused his attention on the light brain on the desk. The operation of the miniature optical brain was very simple and easy to understand. It didn’t take him much time to roughly figure out the functions and the information that his officer’s authority could view.
“Take out the information stored on the Universe Battleship Belief, take out the information on the soldiers, and take out the information on the Apostle clone!”
Following Qin Lun’s words, a transparent projection of a large battleship slowly appeared above the table …
