My battleship can be upgraded

Time passed quickly.

This observation from the forward base is still accurate.

The window period came on time.

There is no need to issue an order. As soon as the window appears, both Wang Dong's Mine Overlord II and Lao Shi's Near Air Overlord first generation start their engines.

Controlling the spacecraft, he resolutely crossed the turbulent layer and entered the mining area with a skillful flying attitude.

In the cockpit of the Mine Master II, a magnetic restraint strap firmly fixed Wang Dong to the seat in front of the operating console.

Before entering the mining area, Wang Dong turned off the self-gravity generation system on the spacecraft and allocated the saved power to the eight lateral azimuth adjustment engines on the side of the Mine Master II hull.

Hold the eight-axis rudder in front of you and push the engine power to one-third.

Wang Dong felt sincerely happy.

The feeling of driving it with your own hands is always so fulfilling.

The only regret is that the one on board is not the battleship from the previous life, but only a Mine Master II near-air mining spacecraft.

The near-air mining spacecraft is only slightly better than the space shuttle.

Compared with the deep space mining spacecraft that has formal level armor and can even compete with ordinary armed spacecraft, the near-space mining spacecraft is really just a younger brother.

Compared with the Tomahawk destroyer that Wang Dong drove in his previous life, the Mine Master Type 2 is really lackluster in terms of propulsion, acceleration performance, and even maneuverability such as direction-changing flight attitude control.

But it also has advantages.

The Mine Master Type 2, which does not need to consider confrontational factors such as battleship protection, has eight azimuth adjustment engines spread across the hull, which is twice as many as the four of ordinary battleships.

Even among close-altitude mining spacecraft that pay more attention to flight attitude adjustment, this advantage of the Mine Master II is quite prominent.

Like the close-air overlord driven by Lao Shi, there are only six positions to adjust the engine.

And as the time spent driving the Mine Master II increased, Wang Dong quickly retrieved all the memories of this type of mining spacecraft from his memory.

Very easily, the Mine Overlord Type 2, at a speed visible to the naked eye, left behind Lao Shi's close-air overlord generation and took the lead in the competition.

Wang Dong fully utilized the advantages brought by the eight-axis adjustment engine.

In the asteroid belt with complex airspace conditions, Wang Dong's Mine Master II relies on its eight azimuth adjustment engines to flexibly adjust the Mine Master II to make various subtle turns in a small space.

Without reducing the thrust of the main engine and maintaining a higher speed, it can travel in the asteroid belt mining area.

Lao Shi gritted his teeth and followed Wang Dong closely.

As for driving skills, with nearly twenty years of experience, he is considered quite good among the miners.

Usually, in the competition between him and Wang Dong, although he basically lost, the difference was only a small amount.

There is no qualitative difference.

But this time something is different.

Wang Dong in front, the Mine Master II, seems to be more agile than before.

The control of certain details is inconspicuous at first glance, just a hint of roundness.

But when hundreds of such details are superimposed together, the gap becomes apparent.

Originally, at the edge of this mining area, Lao Shi's level was enough to fight Wang Dong to death.

But in fact, after entering the mining area, in less than ten minutes, Wang Dong's Mine Master II took an absolute lead, leaving Lao Shi struggling to catch up.

This is far from reaching Wang Dong's limit.

He still had time to organize the memories in his mind

"How did you handle it last time? It seemed that he was tired of being annoyed, so he simply became cruel and tried to drain the firepower."

Wang Dong frowned and thought for a moment, remembering the specific operations he performed before his rebirth.

The close-air overlord that Lao Shi chose today, the No. 3 azimuth adjustment engine on the lower side of the hull was not properly maintained.

The permanent The scanning function of the auxiliary system within Wang Dong's field of vision has already discovered this.

This component, in the scanning interface, is displayed in yellow instead of the green with complete performance. It means that it is in poor condition.

Then entering the mining area, Wang Dong leads the way. He also firmly controlled the rhythm and made many flight route choices that suddenly changed direction.

During the whole process, he had been deliberately inducing the hidden danger of adjusting the engine in that direction on Lao Shi's close-air Overlord Generation.

In just half an hour Finally, the overload operation overloaded the already poor azimuth adjustment engine and paralyzed its performance.

Under normal circumstances, the overload and paralysis of just one azimuth adjustment engine would not cause too serious consequences.

The remaining five azimuths Adjusting the engine can compensate for it.

At best, the adjustment of the flight attitude becomes slower.

But where is this?

The asteroid belt mining area!

Moreover, under the leadership of Wang Dong, they have already penetrated to a certain extent!

Extremely complex Changeable airspace conditions mean that even if the performance is intact, one must be careful and attentive, as there is no room for such a sudden failure. In

Lao Shi's generation of close-air overlords, the engine was overloaded and paralyzed in that direction, causing the flight attitude to go out of control. Suddenly, there was a side impact with an asteroid that was supposed to pass by!

The impact was not serious, it was just a side collision that damaged a few armor plates.

But the subsequent chain reaction was not so Easy.

The first impact was just an introduction. It directly caused the near-space overlord generation to completely lose its stable flight attitude.

In normal space, the flight attitude can be slowly readjusted.

But in the asteroid belt mining area, this is fatal. Mistake.

After Lao Shi's generation of near-space overlords lost their flight posture, they were instantly involved in a turbulent flow.

Under the complex gravitational environment, they constantly collided with small celestial bodies around them, and finally crashed directly into the ground. On an asteroid with a diameter of thousands of meters.

The experienced Lao Shi himself started the separation process of the rescue capsule immediately after the impact, and luckily avoided the fate of the near-space overlord generation.

Wang Dong had the opportunity to lend a helping hand.

He also He did take action.

Although he was annoyed by Lao Shi, it was not to the point of refusing to save him.

An accident was enough for Lao Shi to have a good drink, and it also made Wang Dong vent his anger.

It's a pity. Lao Shi's rescue capsule did not have good luck until the end.

In the chaos caused by the near-space Overlord One, more than one space meteorite was thrown out of the turbulence at high speed and directly hit Lao Shi's rescue capsule. The capsule was on the spot Everyone was destroyed.

Wang Dong had no choice but to let the wreckage of Lao Shi's life capsule get lost in the asteroid belt.

It was the funeral of the interstellar miner. It was originally a clever setup to solve a problem, and it was quite perfect.

It was not Wang Dong Caused Lao Shi's death.

Both the black box on Wang Dong's ship and the black box on Lao Shi's ship can prove this.
