525 Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (1/2)
”Is this the Bridge?” asked Jiang Fei as he walked around the inside the the ship.
To be honest, this piece of the ship was not as large as others but it was still large. To put it in perspective, it was similar to a three-storey building. It was approximately fifteen meters tall and thirty meters long. It was like a small room when compared to the laboratory at the size of over a hundred meter.
”Yes, Captain. This is the Bridge of Braveheart. You must not judge its importance solely based on its size. This is but the most important part of the ship as it is also the core of the ship!”
”Hmm…”
Jiang Fei had thought that the core of the ship was the Main Engine since everything relied on the power from the Main Engine room!
”Hoho. Your thoughts are not wrong. However, the importance lies in the Data Center!” said 0541.
The Data Center or its full designation: Information and Data Collection and Storage Center, was the main body of 0541 as it was the support artificial intelligence system of the ship. Even though 0541 had been a helpful hand to Jiang Fei and did many wondrous feats, the ring on Jiang Fei's finger was just a portable terminal of the main Data Center. As it was small and portable, many of 0541's function was limited to a certain extent.
Once 0541 was linked back to its main body, many functions would be unlocked and other features of the ring would be greatly upgraded.
”Please. The most important part of the ship is you!” said Jiang Fei as it pretended to praise 0541.
”Captain sir, the knowledge of Earth is considered as primitive when it comes to technology. Every machinery relies heavily on each part. In planet Namek, hardware technology had advanced to the point of singularity. The ship's main body, engine room, weaponry, and many other parts were so advanced that there was hardly anywhere that could be improved. However, ships with similar advanced technology were only limited to a few hundred,” said 0541.
”Hmm? Didn't you mention before that only Braveheart had the latest most advanced engine that could escape the gravitational pull of a black hole?” asked Jiang Fei.
”The engine is of the latest technology. However, the main reason the ship had escaped successfully was because of my precise calculations. Without a proper route, no one could escape the gravitational pull of a black hole. Not even photons,” said 0541.
”I understand. So, I was right after all! The most powerful thing in this ship isn't the Engine Room or the weapons! It was you all along!”
”That's right! Captain's intelligence had seemed to increase!” said 0541. Its speech had become more human-like as it linked with the Data Center.
”Right… Well. Let's not waste any more time here. Let's get this ship rolling!” said Jiang Fei.
”Hold on, sir. It has been too long since the Data Center and I had synced our data. The synchronization process will take a long time. Might I suggest that you stay overnight in the Bridge? I will be able to perform better after the synchronization is complete.”
”Hmm. Alright then,” said Jiang Fei. To be honest, Jiang Fei had wanted to see any immediate changes when he obtained the Data Center. Since he needed to synchronize first, it was better to wait patiently since there was nothing else he could do.
