Inside the biological research institute, Jiang Feng continued to introduce his research findings to Fang Heng.
"President Fang, the laser emitter is currently quite small. If it were enlarged and installed on a warship, its power could reach at least 10,000 kilowatts."
Upon hearing this data, Fang Heng quickly calculated that the energy emitted reached 3.6 billion joules, or 360 megajoules.
Such a massive amount of energy could destroy a battleship in an instant.
Many people may think that 10,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity seems like a lot, but it is not enough to destroy a battleship.
But just like talking about toxicity without considering the dosage, 10,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity may not seem like much. Many factories use more electricity in a day. However, the damage caused by such a large amount of energy being concentrated in one point within a few seconds is much greater than imagined.
The warship's armor is not very resistant to energy, which is why it has such great power.
How can we solve the energy problem?
Hearing Fang Heng's question, Jiang Feng smiled and led him to another biological organ.
"President Fang, this is the latest biocapacitor we have cultivated. It can store 100,000 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy and release 1,000 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy instantly. Similarly, the one in front of us is also a small one. We are cultivating a large biocapacitor, which can store up to millions of kilowatt-hours of electrical energy and release 10,000 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy instantly."
"Wow, that's powerful. You guys have really given me a surprise."
With these two things combined, the biological warship now has an additional laser cannon as an attack method, which is sure to excite Fang Heng.
"President Fang, in addition to that, there is also the chitinous shell. After research, the technology has made another breakthrough, and the defensive power of its chitinous shell has been further improved. The defensive effect is not much different from our current destroyers. The only pity is that biological warp drive is still not possible."
"It's alright. Besides relying on your own armor to withstand the effects of warp drive, you can also use energy shields. Perhaps once you develop a bio-energy shield, you'll be able to achieve warp drive."
After comforting Jiang Feng, Fang Heng asked him the question that he cared about most.
"How long does it take to cultivate these biological organs, which work together to form a biological destroyer?"
"About four months."
"Very good, then let's prepare to train one and test its combat capabilities."
"Yes, Mr. Fang."
At present, the cultivation speed of biological frigates has been increased to the limit. In the warship cultivation device, it will take at least a month to complete the cultivation.
Although the development speed is much faster than that of the comet-class corvettes, the lack of warp drive has always been a major drawback. It is very useful for defense, but somewhat weak for offense.
Fang Heng had previously conducted research on biotechnology and knew about some aspects of biological research. At present, his biological research was very difficult, but once a breakthrough was achieved, it would be a major technological leap.
Jiang Feng's research this time is an example of this.
Soon after explaining everything, Fang Heng left.
Time flies like an arrow; in the blink of an eye, four months have passed.
On Mars, after more than a year of dramatic changes, the tectonic plate movement inside the planet has gradually subsided, the planet's core has been reactivated, and a magnetic field has appeared, resisting the impact of the solar wind.
Meanwhile, inside Mars, in a huge cultivation pool, a biological destroyer has taken shape. Once the chitinous shell on its surface is fully formed, the cultivation will be complete.
At this moment, Fang Heng and Jiang Feng had arrived above the cultivation pool, looking down at the huge cultivation pool and the biological destroyer inside.
Looking at the enormous biological destroyer, Fang Heng was also curious and turned to ask Jiang Feng.
"Jiang Feng, aside from the weapons and armor, what other improvements does this bio-destroyer offer compared to the bio-frigate?"
"President Fang, this bio-destroyer has undergone upgrades and adjustments in its bio-energy core and jet chamber. Compared to the bio-frigate, its flight speed is twice as fast, and the core's energy output has also increased tenfold. It can be considered a quantitative improvement, but in essence, it is no different from the bio-frigate."
"Mr. Fang, if I may be so blunt, this biological destroyer is immature. It only has powerful attacks but no defenses, making it easily destroyed."
"It's alright, you can continue your research. Research on the bio-destroyer is imperative, but we also need a strong fighting force to hold down the Terminator world. The bio-laser eye you're researching is extremely powerful, and we must make use of it to deter the omnic legions there."
Did you know that before you developed this bio-laser eye, the enemy's battleships were a headache for the on-site commanders? The armor of these battleships was too tough; apart from antimatter missiles, other weapons were just a tickle.
The production of antimatter is extremely dangerous. Just recently, an antimatter extraction plant was destroyed because 0.1 grams of antimatter fell to the ground after the extraction was completed, causing the plant to explode.
This then triggered a chain reaction, nearly destroying the entire antimatter extraction center.

After a pause, Fang Heng continued, "So your research this time has given me a big surprise. With this, the enemy's battleships will no longer be able to swagger around."
"President Fang, I understand. The biological warship is nearing completion, and the testing area is ready to begin testing at any time."
"Okay, we'll begin when the time comes."
"Yes, Mr. Fang."
The final chitinous shell was cultivated very quickly. Three hours later, the last bit of chitinous shell was cultivated, and the biological destroyer immediately took off and flew into space.
The new bio-jet chamber generated a jet that was so fast that it sent the bio-destroyer into space in a very short time.
The moment it came into contact with cosmic rays, the outer shell of the biological destroyer underwent a new change. The chitinous shell, which had already become very hard, became even stronger, quickly doubling in strength.
This data was immediately transmitted to Jiang Feng.
Seeing this change, he was also very excited.
"Why didn't I think of using cosmic rays to test changes in the chitinous shell? Following this line of thought, a chitinous shell at the cruiser hull level could be achieved."
The biological destroyer was very fast and arrived at the testing area in no time.
Within the test area, an intelligently controlled destroyer was already stationed. In addition to this warship, there was also a decommissioned frigate and an asteroid with armor thickness comparable to that of a battleship.
"Let's test the effectiveness of attacking the frigate first."
"yes!"
"First test, abandoned frigate, laser power 10%, fire!"
"call out!"
"boom!"
With a flash of light, the abandoned frigate exploded, leaving everyone momentarily stunned.
"That's fast! It only used 10% of the power to achieve this effect. That's really good. Let's continue testing. This time, the target is an asteroid."
"Yes, target asteroid, laser power 50%."
"call out!"
As a flash of light appeared, a deep crater was immediately blasted into the center of the asteroid, its depth almost penetrating most of the asteroid.
"The attack was effective. Let's continue testing and choose other locations. This time, we'll increase the power to 100%."
"
"yes!"
"call out!"
"boom!"
With this attack, the asteroid was completely shattered, and the fragments quickly flew away in all directions.
"Report: The test results show that the power has met expectations."
"Very good, next is the test of combat. Order both warships to prepare."
"Yes, we are ready."
"Let's begin!"
"Yes, the practical test begins."
As the order was given, both warships opened fire simultaneously, with the smaller planetary-level frigate also raising its energy shield.
"call out!"
"Sizzle!"
The lasers of the biological destroyer were no joke; even though the opposing destroyer raised its shields, the remaining lasers still burned a huge hole in it.
The situation wasn't much better for the biological destroyer. Without its electromagnetic shield, it couldn't dodge most of the physical weapon attacks from the opposing destroyer, which instead struck the warship's chitinous hull directly.
Although these chitinous shells have been upgraded, they are still unable to withstand the attacks from these missiles and electromagnetic cannons, and large and small wounds have appeared on their bodies.
However, this result did not stop Fang Heng. Since the test was inherently destructive, the on-site testing continued.
As time went on, the fighting between the two sides became increasingly fierce.
The bio-destroyers fired their laser cannons every now and then, and the smaller planetary destroyers were not to be outdone, unleashing a barrage of energy and physical weapons.
"boom!"
With the final exchange of fire, the small planetary destroyer was finally destroyed by the biological zone and disappeared completely into space.
"President Fang, the test is complete. According to the data comparison, the current biological destroyer's combat power is comparable to that of a battleship, only its defense is far inferior, although its energy defense is still very good."
Upon hearing this, Fang Heng nodded. As long as the attack power is sufficient, even if it can only be used once, it is still a very worthwhile deal to use such a powerful spaceship to exchange one for one with the enemy's battleship.
After the test was completed, Fang Heng had just returned to his office when he received intelligence from the Terminator world.
"Commander, according to the report from Terminator World, they have detected new spatial fluctuations."
"Spatial fluctuations? Could it be a spatial jump?"
Just as Fang Heng was wondering, Ethan obtained new information.
"Commander, we have just received new information from the Terminator world. It has been confirmed that the spatial fluctuations were caused by a large number of warships jumping over. The other side claims to be a member of the Starsea Community and has come here to eliminate the Omnic Legion."
