Alien Knights

Aisha's two pupils of different colors turned to Todd. She was stunned for a while, and then she sneered: "Sorry, Your Majesty, I didn't hear what you said just now?"

Compared with Aisha, the three scholars who have been in contact with Muxi City's biotechnology more frequently fell into deep thought after a brief shock.

After a few seconds, Terrence gave a suggestion: "Your Majesty, when it comes to the research on parasites and microorganisms, there may be a scholar who has more say."

"who?"

"Wayne Dunlop."

Todd was a little surprised: "Wayne? That veterinarian-born scholar? The one who wants to uncover the mysteries of the soul?"

Before Terrence said the following words, he hesitated for a while: "Wayne is a very smart and hardworking scholar. His research in the field of biology is unparalleled in the entire Muxi University... But, Your Majesty, please always remember that he has always had major problems with empathy. I hope you will use his family's words as a reference only."

Todd nodded, stretched out his hand and directly recruited Wayne into the soul space.

Wayne, who was wearing a bloody surgical gown and exuded a stench all over his body, held a piece of half-eaten wheat cake and looked at the people in front of him in surprise. Later, he turned his face to Todd: "Your Majesty, you..."

Todd looked at his attire, frowned and snapped his fingers. Wayne immediately changed into a clean suit, and the stench in the air disappeared.

Facing the overwhelmed Wayne, Terrence used a few simple words to introduce the theme of the meeting and the purpose of calling him in.

After making sure that everyone was ready, Todd moved the 3D modeling platform with his hands and sent in the model of "keel parasite": "The keel parasite transformed by the tyrant virus can be fused with other supernatural bacteria to obtain its supernatural characteristics."

Wayne asked at this time: "Your Majesty, what is the tyrant virus?"

After hearing his question, Todd realized that the Tyrant Virus is now in a state of absolute secrecy. Only he has the right to touch the entire Muxi Kingdom.

But in order to explain the principle of the alien battleship, there is no way to take care of these at this time.

"Tyrant virus is an extremely rare microorganism. It can fuse two or more supernatural bacteria to form new supernatural abilities; or, injecting it and supernatural bacteria into parasites can make the parasites acquire the characteristics of supernatural bacteria."

Wayne nodded calmly to express his understanding, but there was a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.

"Using the tyrant virus to give the keel parasite the ability to regenerate bacteria will allow the latter to have the effect of elongation and deformation." Todd manipulated the parasite in the model, stretching it to several meters, and then said: "Because the keel is lighter than solid wood in weight, but stronger than steel in hardness, it is the best hull material."

In the picture, the "regenerated" keel parasite is attached, slowly extending and spreading out, just like the conventional shipbuilding process in the dock, first the keel, then the beam, then the deck, and finally the ship's side.

A ship transformed from parasite limbs appeared in front of everyone in an instant.

While thinking, Terrence looked at the model and asked, "Your Majesty, if the tyrant virus you mentioned really has such a miraculous effect, then the keel can indeed be used as a material for the hull. However, how much area of ​​the hull can a single keel cover? How many keels will be used to build a 40-meter-long warship?"

"40 meters? No, no, no." Todd waved his hand and said, "Although the growth of the keel has a high upper limit, an overly large hull will slow down information transmission, which is not conducive to combat; and this is the first experimental ship, so I want to control the size within fifteen meters."

Aisha asked in surprise: "A battleship within fifteen meters in length? Should it be called a sampan?"

Todd gave her a blank look, and changed the hull model into a common small sloop.

Pointing his finger to the very center of the hull, Todd said: "This is the ship's core area, where the host parasitized by the keel will be located, and the latter will also manage all the functions of the hull through the nervous system of the keel."

Moving his hand to the sail, Todd continued: "The mast will be transformed from the limbs of the keel parasite, and the host can control the elevation and direction of the mast through the ship's core area."

Todd thought for a while, and added many densely packed small paddles at the bottom of the boat, which looked like many "duck feet".

"There are 'underwater paddles' formed by parasite limbs on the bottom of the boat. They can increase the speed of the boat or reverse it under the command of the host."

Aisha glanced at the strange ship full of "tentacles" and asked Todd, "You still haven't talked about an important issue. What are the weapons on this ship?"

Todd heard Aisha's question, leaned back, frowned and said, "Yes, weapons are a big problem."

Terrence asked: "If I remember correctly, the keel parasite seems to be able to spray flames? If the attack is insufficient, can it also carry a bed crossbow? Throwing stones?"

Aisha said: "It may be okay to fight against ordinary merchant ships, but facing the high-caliber artillery of imperial warships up to a thousand meters away, this kind of attack is not enough at all."

Todd was rubbing the top of his head with his hands, and while he was thinking hard about a solution, Wayne Dunlop, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, there seems to be a parasite called "spore" in the Kingdom's Alien Curry?"

"Spore?" Todd didn't realize what it was for a moment.

"It's a sphere-like parasite filled with nitroglycerin, the substance you said could be used as an explosive."

After being reminded by Wayne, Todd finally remembered what "spore" was.

During the battle to defend the Froststone camp, there were a few female wolves that would explode themselves, and it was this kind of parasite hidden in their bodies.

Seeing that everyone was confused, Wayne sent the "spore" to the 3D model platform: "This strange parasite is usually in a stable state. Once it is under external pressure, its body will turn red and explode violently."

Terrence asked, "How powerful is the explosion?"

Wayne's words made the others gasp: "A single adult spore can blow up a strong bunker."

Elijah nodded and said: "If it has such power, then it is completely enough to fight against the imperial warships."

Aisha didn't miss any chance to throw cold water: "Even if this parasite is powerful, what about the power of the weapon? Are you planning to use a trebuchet to throw this thing at the enemy?"

Wayne's face darkened: "Indeed, how to let the spores hit the enemy's battleship is a big problem."

Elijah said at this time: "Your Majesty, I have designed a black powder propeller."

Todd asked strangely: "Black powder thruster?"

Elijah sent out a tubular model similar to the shape of "Barracuda": "I originally wanted to use this invention in water surface surveying, but now that I think about it, it is suitable for use here."

"Look, here is the gunpowder chamber, here is the stabilizer wing, and here is the nozzle. When using it, just ignite the fuse at the tail, and the jet of gunpowder combustion will push the whole object forward quickly on the water surface. And all we have to do is..."

"...Tie spore parasites to the head." Todd completed Elijah's words, while looking at the propeller in the picture, he was suddenly startled, isn't this a fucking torpedo?

The design work of the heterogeneous experimental ship has been completed here, and most of it has basically been completed, and the next step is to allocate work.

"Wayne, you are more familiar with biology, and you are mainly responsible for the manufacture of alien warships."

Todd's words made Wayne Dunlop overjoyed, but Terrence frowned.

"Your Majesty, Wayne is good at biology, but he doesn't know much about physics and hull structure. I recommend my disciple Elijah as his deputy to assist him in completing the manufacturing of the battleship."

Todd nodded in agreement with Terrence's request.

"And me!" Ayesha looked at the hull model and exclaimed excitedly.

Todd looked at her: "What are you messing with?"

"I know about all the combat data of the imperial warships. Don't you need this information when the new ship is tested?" Aisha said convincingly: "What's more, I am an experienced captain. When the ship is on trial, I need a person to lead it, right?"

Todd thought for a while, and finally nodded helplessly.
