Inside the Ouranos, Lin Fan looked at Meng Fei, the leader of the expert team, somewhat strangely.
A battleship built entirely based on steam technology? Are you sure you're not kidding?
After seeing Lin Fan's expression, Meng Fei sighed.
"To be honest, even I can't believe it if I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but our scan results will not lie. Although there are many parts of the power core of the battleship that I cannot understand, it is indeed a huge
Steam engine system, a steam engine developed to its extreme."
Meng Fei said with a sigh on his face.
To be honest, this really subverts the three views, but it can be understood after thinking about it more deeply.
After all, mankind entered the steam revolution and then the electrical revolution, and did not continue on the steam journey.
But the civilization in front of us has obviously reached its peak on the steam journey. From this aspect of technology alone, the Og Empire is much more advanced than the Human Federation.
"Commander Lin Fan, we even scanned their weapon structure and ammunition structure. Can you imagine that their naval guns actually use steam power to project projectiles? Can you imagine that their ammunition is steam projectiles that are compressed to the extreme? Once
After being hit, after the extremely compressed steam in the bomb bay explodes, I'm afraid the power will not be weaker than that of an ordinary third-level civilization?"
"This is really an interesting civilization. I am now very interested in visiting their planet!"
Listening to Meng Fei's words, Lin Fan's curiosity was completely aroused, and he said with a smile.
Lin Fan quite agreed with what Meng Fei said just now.
Don’t think that the path humans are taking is the only way, and don’t think that the view of science and technology you understand is the only correct view of science and technology.
As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome, when humans see more and more civilizations, they will find that many things that humans thought were impossible will become possible.
This is so interesting. It is very similar to the steampunk world view in some movies and TV shows he watched in his previous life. I believe this journey will be quite interesting.
Although Lin Fan was in high spirits now, the tragedy was that the speed of the spaceship being led by the other party was too slow!
The navigator in the bridge told Lin Fan that at this speed, it would take a day to reach Ogg Star, but out of courtesy, Lin Fan had no choice but to let the fleet follow the patrol ship and move forward slowly.
Finally, one day later, the guard fleet followed the patrol boat and arrived in the orbit of the Auger star.
Here, Lin Fan's eyes were opened. In front of him was a steampunk civilization of the interstellar era. Not to mention its technology, the star port in orbit and the various spaceships traveling around it were all steampunk style.
At this time, a spaceship with an obvious sense of majesty approached, and Lin Fan also received the other party's communication.
This is the exclusive spaceship of the Augur royal family. To put it more directly, it is the vehicle of Emperor Auglas.
At this time, Augustus was inside the ship looking through the portholes at the huge fleet that could not be seen far away. Each of the ships was several times the size of his own ship. It was simply too scary.
.
Such a civilization must not be offended, Augustus couldn't help but think in his heart.
Lin Fan took the two women, more than 20 representatives of the expert team, and dozens of commandos, and took the shuttle ship to his car in Auglas.
A few minutes later, when everyone boarded Augustolas' car, Augustolas himself was already greeting them at the cabin door with several ministers.
"Dear lords, I am Auglas, the emperor of the Og Empire. Welcome to the Og Empire!"
Augustus was very respectful.
Lin Fan didn't rush to talk. After all, this was not within his scope of responsibilities. He was just bringing the two girls down for fun.
As for the assessment and negotiation of the Og Empire, they are all handled by a group of experts.
Soon, someone in the expert group took up what Augustus said, and did not show the spectrum of advanced civilization.
The first conversation between the two parties can be said to be quite pleasant.
Speaking of which, the Og people are somewhat like the dwarves in some of Lin Fan's previous works. They are also humanoid, but their height is generally between 1.2 and 1.5 meters. Their facial features are somewhat similar to humans, but they are covered with hair all over their bodies.
Having hair, including on the face.
Of course, the negotiator also introduced Lin Fan specifically during the conversation with Augustus.
When Augustus learned that Lin Fan was the commander of a human legion, and that the fleet in front of him was just one of the many fleets under the legion, he looked at Lin Fan with even more respect.
Especially when he learned that Lin Fan and the others did not participate in the meeting, but only came to Aoge Star for fun, Aogolas immediately patted his chest and expressed that he would arrange special guards and tour guides for Lin Fan after they went down. All Lin Fan's
All expenses are borne by the royal family.
Lin Fan just smiled, that's fine, otherwise the three of them would go shopping by themselves. On the one hand, they were unfamiliar with the place, and on the other hand, they didn't have the money to buy anything, right?
After all, people don’t know about federal coins, so I don’t necessarily want to rob them!
More than half an hour later, the spacecraft began its airborne operation towards the surface of the planet.
It has to be said that the technology of the Og Empire is still something. After all, if a spacecraft of this size wants to directly land on the planet, most second-level civilizations cannot do it, and even some elementary third-level civilizations cannot do it.
arrive.
After arriving on the ground, Augustus immediately arranged a tour guide and a team of royal guards for Lin Fan. Soon Lin Fan left with the two women. After all, it was about the expert group and had nothing to do with Lin Fan.
.
This game lasted for a whole week, until Lin Fan received the notice from the expert team and took the two girls back to the palace of the Og Empire.
When Lin Fan and the others returned to the palace, they learned about the result from Meng Fei.
First of all, after the evaluation conducted by the expert group, the potential score of Og civilization reached 7.2 points, which met the basic requirements for the federation to recruit affiliated civilizations.
The so-called potential score is a potential assessment method developed by many experts in the federation. It is a score obtained through a comprehensive assessment of more than 100 items such as the historical process of a civilization, technological routes, civilization systems, population proportions of various occupations, etc.
The full score is ten points, and the minimum requirement for the federation to recruit affiliated civilizations is 7 points.
Therefore, the expert group also extended an invitation to the Og Empire to join the federation-affiliated civilization.
Of course, when Augustus heard this invitation at first, his face was not very good. He knew what a subordinate civilization was. Becoming a subordinate civilization meant being continuously squeezed by the main civilization, which basically meant stopping the development of his own civilization.
potential.
However, when Augustus saw the Human Federation's Affiliated Civilization Agreement, he was stunned.
Are you kidding me? You actually told me this is a subsidiary civilization?
