Chapter 13

Among the frigate's weapons, many of them didn't have a long effective range.

Like the electromagnetic machine gun, the effective killing range was only three hundred metres.

The range of the energy ray gun was only five hundred metres, and the lander was even further away, only one hundred metres away.

The main reason for this was that the defensive power of the high-energy shields and armour was too strong.

After exceeding the range, the weapon's power and hits would be intercepted in a rapidly decreasing trend.

Of course, this kind of scene with the emergence of higher level warships, the distance will also increase.

Just this one kilometre range rocket launcher. Obviously it wasn't too compatible with a two kilometre main gun.

‘Is there a longer range?'

‘There is. Of course there is. This is a missile launcher. Whether it's a Hellfire missile or a Thunder missile, it can launch them all. And the effective range of the missile can reach five kilometres. It's the longest range of any weapon.'

A two-kilometre main gun using a five-kilometre missile was not much of a problem to use with it.

But just as he was about to place his order, suddenly a hand was a pinch on his canopy.

‘Grass! That bastard dares.'

Before he finished his words, his body instinctively softened his legs and gave him a knee.

Turning his head, he looked at the familiar beautiful face.

But he was not able to raise his interest in the slightest.

‘How, how is it you!'

Doris glanced at him coldly.

‘What, haven't seen you for a long time, did you miss me?'

Bah, can this fucking say a human word. Who the hell misses you, if he misses you, then he is brain dead.

But this is something he absolutely did not dare to say.

Didn't he see that his own heavenly aura was still in her hands?

‘That Sister Doris, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Can you let go of my heavenly aura first? Talking like that, I don't feel safe at all.'

Doris smirked as she loosened her grip and pulled him aside on the sofa.

‘Say, what do you need a remote weapon for?'

‘It's this.'

Briefly put things into perspective.

That's when he found out why he wanted a remote weapon.

‘So you're getting ready to go on missiles here?'

‘What's the problem?'

‘And do you know how much a missile costs per round?'

Guide Emma screamed in her mind. This is a professional ah.

Then this fat sheep is afraid to be cold.

An unnatural smile appeared on her face.

‘This beautiful lady, the basic h-type missile is almost 10 star coins a piece.'

‘Hear that, ten star coins a piece. It's easily intercepted by the machine guns. To take on a frigate, in a normal open environment, it would take at least three simultaneous launches to hit one. And the energy released from a single missile, combined with your main gun, would barely be enough to knock out the enemy's high-energy shields.'

‘Thirty star coins will do the trick. That's not much of a problem, is it?'

Doris laughed at his words.

‘Thirty star coins just bursts someone's shields. There's armour underneath. Normally, it takes about a hundred star coins to break one. But a battleship can't be sold for a few dollars for scrap recycling. It's not a big loss to do so.'

‘But if you replace it with an electromagnetic railgun, it's very cost-effective.'

Skilfully, she selected what she was talking about.

‘This is a regular model electromagnetic railgun. Regular accurate range of 1.5 kilometres. Five times the speed of sound will reach the target in a second.'

‘I'm not too happy with this regular one though. After all, your main gun can hit up to two kilometres. Then using this 120mm carbide-augmented electromagnetic cannon, you can increase the range by 30%. Reaching 1,95 kilometres. There's no downside to that except it's three times more expensive than the regular model.'

‘In addition to that the shells for the electromagnetic cannon are available in a variety of styles. Some are specifically for high energy shields, some are specifically for breaking armour. There are also ones that serve other purposes. Exactly which kind you need. Should know better than me.'

Blah, blah, blah, blah, said a bunch of specialised stuff.

He probably understood the meaning.

This expensive one was more cost-effective. Electromagnetic cannonballs could be bought for 10 rounds for one star coin.

The probability of being intercepted was almost non-existent.

Using specialised ammunition, it could break shields with precision.

Although the overall power was not as good as a missile, this cost performance was absolutely nothing to speak of.

‘Also consider the issue of accuracy. You'll need another passive fire control radar. This will increase the firing accuracy by 20%. Paired with two 120mm EM guns, at two kilometres, it basically won't be a big problem.'

‘Okay, that's it. This sales. You stock up. Here's our shopping list.'

‘Good. I'll set it up.'

Adam chose just a little shell the whole time, and could barely plug the rest.

Or rather, he really wanted to plug her little mouth.

It was damn sexy.

But this body didn't know what it meant.

Surprisingly, it was dead slow to get aroused.

In addition to these major equipment, another batch of conventional armour was procured.

When we robbed the battleship before, we damaged a lot of this stuff.

Now they all had to be replaced.

‘Alright, is there anything else that needs to be purchased? I can give you some advice.'

Cursing in his heart.

You are giving advice. You are dominating the whole process.

Damn, how is this woman's controlling nature so strong. And now it looks as if she's even more domineering than before.

Something must be bought. But the following things seem a bit inappropriate.

After just a second of hesitation, Doris guessed certain thoughts in his mind.

‘Let's go. Is it to buy a woman. I'll give you the gatekeeper.'

‘No sis, isn't this a bit too enthusiastic of you?'

‘Is it? Do you still want some heartthrob type of play around you?'

‘Alright, I won't interfere in your private life.'

Saying that, she took the initiative to take his arm and headed outside.

The equipment would be sent to the designated factory by the robot.

The little old man would take care of the rest.

The bitter Adam was dragged by her to the talent centre.

This was his other purpose for coming over.

It was to hire someone from the Flame Squad.

This Flame Squad according to the information, they were a small combat regiment.

It had a total of 12 personnel.

It was still very famous amongst the armies in the nearby area.

The main reason why they were so famous was because they were all good looking.

Especially their Flame Captain.

Liza Davis.

This woman, Liza, was now 26 years old.

She wasn't a human, but a hybrid between a human and a subhuman race.

Such a hybrid child had gathered the advantages of both parents.

Three-dimensional delicate features, plus that pair of short elf ears that grow outwards.

She was quite beautiful.

Especially her figure, not to say that she has a curvy front and back.

But it was definitely a standard figure.

That exquisite pretty face, looking at it gave people a gentle feeling, but her character was very tough.

Doris pointed at the woman on the screen.

‘Is she the one you want?'

‘Hmm.'

‘She is not suitable for you. The personality is too strong. You're suited to the gentle kind. Not the kind that looks gentle on the outside.'

‘Huh? Sister Doris, how can you tell?'

Doris gently ruffled her long black hair.

‘Look at her eyes. It doesn't match her temperament at all.'

‘If you come on hard, you might end up in the hospital.'

Adam's mouth twitched and he subconsciously clenched his legs.

This one seemed a bit too much.

But on second thought, it wasn't like he was craving her body.

He could have sworn that body, or whatever, was definitely not his first priority.

This point he dare swear, otherwise split dead next door that surnamed Wang.

Suddenly there was a flash of electricity outside, followed by a rumble. A blue lightning bolt fell.

Swallowing hard, he spat in his heart.

‘Sister, look, don't we still have a few frigates at home that no one is piloting. Look.'

‘Oh? Are you sure it's just for them to pilot the battleships and you don't want them to be female knights? Or maybe you don't want to ride them?'

‘Honestly, don't lie to me.'

Looking into her sharp eyes, Adam was tempted to shake his head.

But finally opened his mouth to explain.

‘Physically it's definitely on my mind. But my main goal is still to get them to fight for me. Other things are not considered necessary.'

Doris nodded in satisfaction.

‘That's right, there's nothing to hide from me. In that case, sign a contract with them.'

‘Hmm.'

Soon a group of 12 people appeared across from him.

These 12 people totalled three frigates.

This was the standard squad structure.

Three of them belonged to the captain, and nine of them belonged to logistics and gunners.

Seeing this sub-human species for the first time, it still felt very fresh.

After all, the original owner's memories and seeing it in person were two completely different things.

Being stared at by him like this, Liza on the opposite side of the table slightly revealed an unhappy look.

‘Have you seen enough.'

‘What, letting your boss observe you a little more and you develop emotions? Is this your work attitude? Then when you appear on the battlefield in the future, are you going to disobey your boss's orders!'

This imposing sentence from Doris was the one that completely silenced Liza on the opposite side.

‘I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that. It's just that I don't like being sized up like an animal.'

‘Don't worry, no one here treats you like an animal. You're beautiful. He's just admiring you.'

Adam's mouth twitched, good lord, this woman's mouth is poisoned, isn't it?
