The Vow of Silver Dawn

Going past the gate, Sean heard a loud ding, as if heavy metal parts were colliding violently. In addition, there are various noises such as gears running, engines humming, flames burning, etc., just like a noisy band.

Judging from the sound, the bottom layer of this base actually hides an entire factory, and the owner of the factory is undoubtedly Zhuang Yuanying.

The deeper Sean gets, the more surprised she is at this girl with horns. He came to Hongxing Base for a while, so he naturally checked the three-dimensional map of the base, but the map only showed the part above the long passage. As for the following part, it was classified as top secret, and Sean’s authority could not see it. To.

Now it seems that this top-secret weight is really not light. It is not only about this base, but also about the deep secrets of the Red Apricot Squad and even the Silver Knight Group.

But now is not the time to explore the secrets. The secrets of the galaxy are countless. If one after another explores it, it won’t be enough for Sean to live another 800 years. So at the moment he has only one thing to do...

"Today, I will demonstrate the maintenance method of the [Sky 3] engine."

Zhuang Yuanying brought Sean In a white and flawless processing workshop, he said to a spaceship engine placed in the center.

"[Tianqiong No. 3] is a general-purpose engine designed and shaped by Beihe Industry 700 years ago. It can be easily assembled in a variety of spaceships. Although the design also exists as it should be by rights Such and such defects, but it is low in cost, powerful in production capacity, and sufficient in performance. So in the following 700 years, even after multiple version changes, [Sky 3] has always been the most common spaceship in the Heaven System Engine."

Sean has nodded hard, and he has gradually mastered these common sense through various channels during this period of time. But the same knowledge, through Zhuang Yuanying, a senior mechanic, is naturally more credible.

"More than half of the various spaceships of the Silver Knights are equipped with the same style [Sky 3]. Therefore, mastering this type of engine is also the responsibility of every mechanic in the Silver Knights group. Compulsory course."

As Zhuang Yuanying said, she walked onto the workshop processing table, controlled several robotic arms, and began to dismantle the engine that was as tall as a person in front of her.

This one that was sent to the workshop obviously has experienced very rough use and has not been properly maintained. At this time, the whole body is charred, as if it has been burned by the fire, and it is constantly emerging from the cracks. Black smoke is emitted; more than half of the turbine blades at the jet port are broken and bent.

After taking it apart, the internal situation is simply horrible.

From Sean's point of view, this thing has no salvage value at all. Instead of bothering to fix it, it is better to contact the manufacturer to get a new one. Anyway, this [Sky 3] is the most popular civilian style in the Heaven System. Not to mention the low price, and the access channels are particularly wide. Even if there is a problem of material embargo in the deserted area, it is hard to find [Sky 3].

But looking at Zhuang Yuanying's focused and even pious look, Sean knew that for this teenage mechanic, the mechanics problem was never a financial plot against. Even if it was not to demonstrate the technology, she would not discard any engine with repair value.

With the dancing of the robotic arm, this [Sky Dome No. 3] was disassembled into countless small components. Zhuang Yuanying quietly explained the structural principle of the engine while classifying the disassembled components. Scraps that cannot be repaired are classified into one category, those that can be used continuously after processing are classified into one category, and those that are intact are classified into the last category.

In the soft whispers of the girl, the piles of components that symbolize waste are seeing higher and higher piles, which also makes Sean feel very puzzled: Chuang Yuanying has discarded at least one third component. , How does she plan to fix it next? Even if there are sufficient components in the underground base to replace all the waste products, but the entire engine is disassembled in this way, and then reinstalled will inevitably affect the overall performance.

"Next, is the core of today's course. For severely damaged engines, repairs cannot be carried out according to the usual ideas..." Zhuang Yuanying said, stopped her work for a while, and began to earnestly The explanation was brewing, but the girl's eyes were still focused on the workbench, without even looking at Sean.

Sean didn't care about it. With Chuang Yuanying's shy character, I am afraid that the only way to make her speak fluently. Compared with Zhuang Yuanying's concern, he cares more about how the other party intends to repair the engine that has been dismantled into scrap.

"The versatility of [Sky 3] has always been well-known, and this versatility does not only mean that it can be smoothly installed in many different models of spaceship, and more importantly, [Sky 3 No.] is the prototype of many similar engines. Therefore, under certain conditions, the [Sky 3] can be converted into other types of engines."

Sean hearing this, could not help but be dumbfounded: Is this a joke? ! Engines are not assembling toys. Both manufacturing and maintenance require an absolutely precise environment. Can they be transformed temporarily?

However, as Chuang Yuanying’s processing steps continue to advance, Sean is even more surprised to find that the tattered [Sky 3] actually turned into a new shape in a little by little place. .

The original slightly complicated turbine fan blades were cut and removed as a whole, replaced with a set of grids made of special steel plates processed by the shell; the core reaction chamber was condensed by one third, although it was lowered Starting efficiency, but also allows the engine to maintain normal operation; the charred and cracked shell is simply welded and filled and then installed back. It looks a bit on the verge of collapse, but considering that the overall performance of the engine has declined, the shell is not needed. Provides such a strong fixing and heat dissipation function...

After a series of operations, [Sky 3] has been completely different, but it seems to be glowing with a new life force. After all, Sean has considerable knowledge accumulation. After observing it for a while, he determined that this engine, which was carefully repaired by Zhuang Yuanying, was castrated and modified with reference to the lowest configuration of the Sky Series, and it can theoretically run normally.

Although as a low-end model, the performance of [Sky Dome Wilderness] is almost half castrated compared to the original version, but there is still performance at all. Before going through repairs, [Sky Dome 3] simply is It's just scraps waiting to be scrapped.

So far, Sean only feels amazed. The skills that Zhuang Yuanying showed were not shocking, and even deliberately converging. She didn't use her own strange power and unique machine repair gun during the whole process, and all the operations used the most unpretentious technology, even the movements were very slow.

It seems to be saying: As long as you memorize this process, anyone can do the same thing.

Sean can naturally too.
