After bidding farewell to Tina, Annan and Esdeath arrived at the scientific force's station.
The transformation of the Ice and Fire Man was carried out here.
Annan and others had spoken to Kurome on the phone before they arrived, so no one blocked them. The journey was smooth and they soon arrived at the dock.
The modified Ice and Fire Man is nearly twice as big as before. The previous model of the Ice and Fire Man was a small patrol ship like the one in the East China Sea, which could only carry 80 to 100 people.
But now, like Tina's warship, it is a small warship with a full complement of 300 people.
"You are here."
Kuromi stood on a small bench, clicking on the screen with both hands, and looked back at Annan and Esdeath. As a result, he failed to control his balance and almost fell down if he was not careful.
"Damn it, can't they set up a console that can control the height?" Kuromi said angrily as he leaned on the console to steady himself.
"Dr. Kurome, in fact, the height of the console is designed according to the body shape of a normal person..." the female assistant wearing black-rimmed glasses said in a low voice.
"Asshole, what do you mean, are you saying I'm short?" Kuromi said to the female assistant, "Besides, I'm not an adult yet and I will still grow taller."
"But Dr. Bega Punk has checked you. The probability of you growing taller is no more than one percent..."
"Ahhh!" Kuromi rubbed his head angrily.
"It's indeed a bit short." Annan stretched out his hand to compare and said seriously.
"Yeah, that's right." Esdeath touched her chin and nodded repeatedly.
"Damn it, even you guys are making fun of me!"
Kuromi jumped off the bench and looked at Annan and Esdeath angrily.
"How can I say that I'm teasing you?" Annan looked at Kuromi, "With a little spinning top figure like yours, the essence is concentrated. The postgraduate entrance examination... ah no, scientific research must be fierce. Look, I haven't seen you for two months.
You have gone from being an assistant to being a doctor now."
"That's natural."
Kuromi raised his head and put his hands on his hips.
"Of course, this also has something to do with you. Thanks to being on the Ice and Fire Man, I have time to conduct research. Two months ago, I became the youngest doctor in the Navy's special science class. Then I will help you.
The Ice and Fire Man has been refitted and upgraded.”
"So how did our doctor lady refit the Ice and Fire Man?" Esdeath said with a smile.
"That must be the most perfect." Kurome jumped on the bench and clicked on the screen several times.
A holographic projection appeared directly above the console.
"Here, this is the modified Ice and Fire Man."
Kurome wore light-pressure gloves and waved his fingers gently. The projection of the Ice and Fire Man rolled and rotated in accordance with Kurome's gestures, showing Annan and Esdeath no blind spots.
"The new generation of Ice and Fire Man has been updated in all aspects." Kurome pulled outwards with both hands, and the projection of the ship was disassembled into independent parts.
"The first is the hull structure. The main hull is in the form of a hybrid skeleton. The materials used to build the hull are various alloys. There are also watertight bulkheads built inside to ensure the strength, stability, and unsinkability of the hull...
Meet the needs of each cabin, especially the scientific research cabin."
"The second is the power system. I have completely upgraded it. Now the Ice and Fire Man uses a steam turbine power device. Due to Vegapunk's huge breakthroughs in energy research, the current Ice and Fire Man ship
It can carry out a long voyage without the need for Major Annan to use the fruit power."
"The sailing speed can theoretically reach three times the maximum speed of large warships currently in service in the Navy."
"Not only that, I installed auxiliary devices for the power system so that one helmsman can control the entire ship in an emergency."
"Finally, there is the weapon system. The naval gun on the bow is a brand-new rapid-fire cannon. The rate of fire is six to eight times that of ordinary naval guns. Because the rapid-fire cannon is still under testing, it is inevitable to encounter various failures in actual combat, including but
Not limited to: bullet jamming, bullet drop, spring deformation, rifling wear, chamber explosion, ammunition explosion..."
"Ah this..."
Annan opened his mouth, "If it really doesn't work, we don't have to pretend."
"No." Kuromi shook his head, "The Ice Fire Man represents the direction of future naval warships. Every weapon form must be tried and tested."
"This is a new direction, right? There's no need to try it. You can just build an aircraft carrier destroyer." Annan thought to himself.
It's useless to tell Kuromi. In the Age of Discovery, there weren't even airplanes. What's the use of the entire aircraft carrier? How about walking around on it?
"Of course, in addition to rapid-fire cannons, there are also steam gas torpedoes installed on both sides of the hull, as well as guided rockets that have not yet been officially installed on the stern," Kuromi said.
