Destroyer: Building a Dimensional Universe from Scratch

Chapter 16 Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh

As autumn came to an end, winter quietly descended. The 5th parallel north, which runs across the vast East European plains, through the Black Sea to Constantinople, ushered in the first snowstorm of the year.

Snowflakes were flying all over the sky, and the whole city seemed to be covered with a layer of silver. Despite this, ordinary residents of the city were still wearing daily casual clothes, and only a few people changed into thick down clothing.

The ship girls in the vanguard fleet focused on a unique ship. It was completely black, and its round outline revealed a unique temperament that had never been seen before. It was very different from the ship driven by any other ship girl, and also different from any interstellar battleship seen before.

The front end of the ship is a flat rectangular shape, with three armed modules on each side and six rail gun turrets on the top, flashing cold light. In order to ensure stability and install light weapons, the overall design focuses on balance.

There are several huge plasma thrusters on the tail and bottom. When in standby mode, the slightly overflowing energy rolls like heat waves.

Akashi answered, "This ship is powered by a reactor powered by a Mind Cube, which provides sufficient energy. Theoretically, it is enough to support continuous combat for more than two months."

She proudly showed off her work and looked at Lu Chen expectantly.

"Good job!"

Lu Chen touched Mingshi's head and praised: "Not bad, it really deserves praise!"

"From now on, we will truly enter the space age, and this spacecraft will be our first step into the universe."

For human civilizations in the past, interstellar navigation technology was almost out of reach, but it marked that a civilization finally had the ability to leave its home planet and explore the wider universe.

"Wow--"

A destroyer girl suddenly asked: "Does this ship have a name?"

"I haven't decided yet. Do you have any good suggestions?"

As the first spaceship, it carries many expectations and glory and will lead them to conquer distant star regions.

The crowd was discussing and proposed names such as "God's Blessing", "Royal Fortune", and "Great Holy Grail", but they were all rejected by Lu Chen as lacking innovation.

Lu Chen turned to Yixian for advice. This gentle and knowledgeable ship girl had named the Star Alliance. Yixian gently shook off the snow on the oil-paper umbrella, frowned slightly, and thought for a moment.

"As a member of the alliance, this spaceship symbolizes that we started from the low-dimensional area and gradually built a civilization that spans the borders of the eons."

"Plus, the spacecraft set sail on a snowy winter day."

"so be it!"

Lu Chen snapped his fingers and announced, "From now on, this is our alliance flagship - the Ten Thousand Years of Snowstorm!"

A few minutes later, the ship girls followed Lu Chen excitedly onto the spaceship. The interior of the spaceship was spacious, and Akashi was arranged according to the standards of a spacecraft. The design was simple and full of science fiction, and even had energy partitions and a small hot spring bath.

The ship girls were amazed. It was their first time to come into contact with something new like a spaceship, and their eyes were filled with curiosity and excitement.

After entering the main control room, the ship girls took their positions and prepared to launch the spacecraft. With the prompts of the mechanical voice, everyone fastened their safety devices and waited for the spacecraft to start.

As the door closed, the plasma thrusters at the bottom of the spacecraft released a blazing red light, instantly melting the snow for kilometers in a radius, reflecting the silhouette of the base.

Driven by the reaction force, the spacecraft slowly rose, flew off the ground, and headed towards the vast universe. Looking out the window, the familiar city became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared from sight, replaced by an endless sea of ​​clouds and a looming sun.

As the speed continued to increase, the spacecraft finally passed through the atmosphere and entered outer space. All that was left in sight was the blue earth slowly turning beneath the feet, and in the distance was the starry abyss of the universe.

The spacecraft's built-in gravity system ensures that the crew can still feel comfortable at high acceleration. The ship girls stood up to admire the magnificent cosmic scenery outside the window, their hearts filled with yearning for the unknown world.

After lifting the security restrictions, Lu Chen activated the main aiming equipment. There were no observation stations or other facilities around, so it was obvious that they were not in a primitive civilization.

Facing the sea of ​​stars in front of him, Yixian gently stroked the window and sighed with emotion: "It turns out that after living in the blue world for countless years, we have never seen such a spectacular sight."

“When a civilization breaks free from the pull of gravity and truly faces space, it will realize how insignificant the intrigues on the ground are.”

"Compared to the power that can travel through space and connect all worlds, what does fighting for a few seas mean?"

Watching the spacecraft passing over the surface of the moon, the little ship girls became excited and began to imagine future interstellar travel.

"We're going to the moon! We're going to Mars!"

Lu Chen smiled and replied: "Of course, this spaceship is built for you to accumulate technology and experience. Due to the risks of large-scale modification of the hull, we must first ensure that the navigation technology is mature before applying it to the ship girls."

"It probably won't be long before everyone can collectively convert it into a starship."

Hearing this, the ship girls cheered and their blood boiled as they imagined the future interstellar fleet composed of hundreds of ship girls.

"Let's develop the Earth first, then we can consider extraterrestrial colonization."

Lu Chen looked at the bright starry sky outside the window and was absent-minded for a moment.

"Master, I used to think that Britain was my entire world... but from this perspective, it is just a small corner on a planet. My previous knowledge was too limited."

"The fight that took place there is just a speck of dust in human history."

As the spacecraft moved away from the Earth, it was difficult to find traces of Britain in sight, which made Bai Zhen sigh: "It's like a gnat in the universe, a drop in the ocean. When we go to the universe, we will find that the land we once lived in is too small."

After Bai Zhen, holding the iris flag, expressed these insights, Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that going into space could allow the ship girls to understand some profound philosophical concepts.

The ship girls who once fought fiercely on the ocean have now achieved world harmony against the backdrop of the vast universe.
