CHAPTER 1098: CHAPTER 584: THE DESTROYER-CLASS BATTLESHIP

Chan Country, located on the side of Mengjia Bay in the deep mountains, an enormous underground base is situated in a recessed area near the shore.

Beneath the surface, the area here is beyond imagination for people.

The massive mountain is almost hollowed out, with engineering machines built on the Spider Main Battle Mecha chassis coming and going, either lifting, welding, or transporting. There are underground railway tracks and a spectacular road network connecting the outside world, directly reaching several of Jieke Group’s heavy industrial bases, providing a continuous supply of material to this secret base.

On February 19th, just the day after Jieke Group declared war on Japan.

A train slowly enters this underground base. Once the train stops, what comes down first are the Second Generation Biological Spider, and a full four teams of Second Generation Sacred Blood Gene Warriors. They form a dense forest of steel, like an impenetrable wall, attracting curious glances from the busy workers and engineers around.

Until a man walks out, this underground base instantly boils with excitement, and the engineers finally understand why such a big formation appeared.

"Supreme Leader!"

"The Supreme Leader is here."

"It’s the Supreme Leader."

Some commotion breaks out at the scene, but there is order here. Although the crowd is excited, they do not swarm over like ordinary citizens, only casting eager glances.

"Supreme Leader, Navy Second Fleet Commander Xia Jinyi salutes you, loyal! Truth!"

Commander Xia Jinyi, wearing a neat military uniform, gives Su Jie a crisp salute.

"No need for formalities, let’s go see our Navy’s big treasure."

Su Jie smiled. He had returned to Chan Country with Liu Yingying a few days ago, and now he came to the Navy mainly to see the Navy’s new large weapon.

"Yes, Supreme Leader, please follow me."

Xia Jinyi salutes and leads the way from the front.

"Has the main battleship been completed?"

Liu Yingying follows behind Su Jie, her eyes filled with curiosity.

Although she embarked on cultivation with Su Jie, she knows that Jieke Group is fundamental. She also knows that Jieke Group’s Navy has been investing in creating a flagship warship for naval battles.

Though she did not meddle in military power, every year the money approved outflow was used by the Navy for this flagship warship, a bottomless pit that consumed a lot of financial and material resources, much more than the cost of the Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruiser.

"You will see."

Su Jie chuckled lightly.

"Still keeping secrets."

Liu Yingying puffed her cheeks, but her curiosity grew heavier.

Traveling through the complete road network by vehicle, the group finally arrives at a secret, underground internal harbor pier.

The pier extends with several long jetties, where the water at the dock is fifty meters deep, connected to the outside world through an underwater tunnel.

Currently, at the pier’s jetty, three Devourer-class Deep Diving Cruisers, over two hundred meters long, are already docked. This is Jieke Group’s currently most powerful warship, renowned around the world.

Previously, these new-cruiser Arsenal Ships would instantly capture attention upon appearing, drawing all eyes.

But today, that phenomenon is shattered, because at the edge of the pier, an even more terrifying warship captures everyone’s gaze.

This is a steel battleship over five hundred meters in length; more accurately, it’s a half-biological, half-mechanical warship.

Its shell and framework are made with a special metal mixed with Deep Sea Luminous Stone; from afar, it resembles a stretch of blue ocean.

Currently, this massive warship’s deck is open, and inside, besides mechanical objects, are piles of layered meat tumors, even the surface decks use insect shell-like materials.

These meat tumors constantly writhe, bulging like blood vessels, the entire warship full of life-like vitality. Countless tentacles and veins shuttle within the ship, like blood vessels, connecting every system and maintaining the warship’s operation.

Wherever one looks, it is a perfect fusion of mechanics and flesh, giving the warship a unique sense of life.

This is also what Su Jie had Puppet Hall develop, a ship specially intended for naval warfare on Blue Star, previously under development in the Puppet Hall project, named Lanhai No.1.

While the main structure of this warship had long been completed, as Su Jie’s power rapidly advanced, he plundered a vast amount of resources from the Righteous Sect outside, allowing steadily affluent Su Jie to continuously invest more funds, causing Lanhai No.1 to be upgraded time and again, delaying its construction progress.

However, what resulted was even more complete and powerful combat power, while also accumulating more experience for Puppet Hall, preparing for the future creation of the true Flying Magical Boat.

The current Lanhai No.1 is the true finished product, with the main construction completed by Puppet Hall in Tianyuan World, followed by modernization modifications and sea trials completed by Jieke Group.

"Please take a look, Supreme Leader, this is our Jieke Group’s mightiest naval ace, the Destroyer-class Battleship; this is the lead ship, Yuan Shou."

The ship’s length is 541.1 meters, ship width 79.6 meters, standard displacement 17,000 tons, full-load displacement 205,000 tons, using Spirit Liquid Heavy Oil as fuel, equipped with sixteen T8G-type pressurized water heavy spirit reactors, capable of operating both online and offline, with a crew of 800 people, including 55 Genetic Warriors to operate the combat and navigation systems.

The Destroyer Battleship’s main body is constructed with biological insect shell armor, in addition to conventional weapon systems, it also has a powerful biological ship artillery strike, armed with 9 triple-mounted 600mm caliber naval guns, capable of delivering devastating blows, annihilating all enemies."

As Xia Jinyi explained, Liu Yingying slightly opened her mouth in awe.
