Legacy of the Void Fleet-Chapter 33: ch- 31 Tyler and Tessa-2(asking for votes)
Kallus said, "This is what I have come to discuss with you, Head Researcher Tyler."
He continued "First, as I mentioned just now, we need to establish a well-structured fleets, not just one, within a timeframe of three months. I want you provide details on this—specifically, which class of ships we should produce first."
"The reason I ask this of you is that I value your experience. Even as a researcher and creator, you have witnessed countless fleets and armadas of your ancient human empire in your previous life—an empire that has existed for millions of years. That is something I lack."
Tyler expressed his appreciation, saying, "I appreciate that you value my experience and expertise, Imperial Commander."
Tyle said, "The structure of a fleet, even in my previous life, wasn’t much different. So in this area, there’s not much I can do. I have seen various fleets and armadas before, but that’s all—I merely observed them..."
He continued, "Since my work is solely focused on creation and research, there’s little I can do in this area.
Kallus sighed and thought, What was I expecting? Tyler is a researcher and a creator—that’s what he does best, now more than ever. Well, no worries. I’ll discuss this with Admiral Ezra. As a war veteran and fleet admiral, his opinion is invaluable.
Out loud, he said, "Oh, it’s just as you said, Tyler. This isn’t your area of expertise."
Tyler, sensing the disappointment in Kallus’s tone, lowered his voice and said, "Sorry to disappoint you, Imperial Commander."
Kallus, hearing his apology, quickly responded, "Oh, no, no! I’m not disappointed at all, Tyler. I’m asking something outside your area of expertise—something beyond your field. It was unnecessary of me to ask you in the first place."
Sensing Kallus’s true thoughts, Tyler felt relieved. The Imperial Commander is never arrogant or forceful. Despite his rank, he respects us, and his humility has earned everyone’s respect over the past month and a half
Kallus said, "Let’s put this aside for now. Tell me about the task I assigned to you and your team—how much progress have you made?"
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
Tyler replying to Kallus said, "Imperial Commander, the task you assigned to me and my department a month and a half ago is nearly complete. However, some complex technologies—such as the space gate and terraforming systems—are still undergoing research.
Along with a few other high-grade systems, they require additional time to finalize. That said, we estimate that within a maximum of 15 days, we will complete the research on these technologies as well."
Now, all we lack are the necessary materials to begin production."*
Receiving this report left Kallus momentarily stunned. He knew that all the technologies being researched or recreated had been possible only because of the data present at Obliterator. After all, these were the very same technologies he had procured during his gaming days.
With a tone of surprise, he said, "That’s impressive and outstanding, Tyler. I had expected it would take much longer to recreate all these technologies—even for you."
Tyler nodded and replied with a grin, "With all the advanced, transcendent-grade research and testing equipment at the lab, the process became much easier for us. And, of course, with my team’s expertise, we were able to accelerate the progress significantly."
Kallus continued, "As for the materials needed to produce all these technologies, we can procure them from resource-rich asteroids and similar sources." He added with a mysterious tone, "As for the other resources required for production bio related material , well leave it to me.
Although Tyler didn’t understand why Kallus was being so secretive, he didn’t dwell on it. Instead, he simply nodded, signaling that he understood.
Kallus continued as he looked at Tyler and said, "Show me some of the designs you’ve researched and recreated."
To which Tyler nodded and said, "Before I go on and show you the designs, I’ll add..."
He stopped and looked in Kallus’s direction, as if seeking permission to continue.
Kallus nodded and said, "Go on."
Tyler nodded back and began, During the process of recreating all the existing technology present in the Obliterator-class Dreadnought, my team and I, after thorough discussion, classified the technology into four distinct tiers for ease of understanding and organization.
- Tier-4: This is the most basic and simpler form of technological applications. It includes entry-level concepts such as the most rudimentary nuclear fusion reactors, basic robotics, and lesser technologies that serve as the foundation for more advanced developments.
- [Tier-3:] This represents a significant advancement over Tier-3, where technology becomes more efficient, and its theoretical foundations are well-established and perfected.
Systems at this level are not just improved but also designed with refined engineering principles, making them far more effective.
- [Tier-2:] This is the peak of technological development, where further advancements are either impossible or would yield negligible benefits.
An example of Tier-2 technology would be a third-generation nuclear or fusion reactor that has reached its theoretical and practical limits, achieving maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
- [Tier-1] At this level where we have achieved technological singularity—where advancements have transcended conventional limits, leading to the creation of something entirely new.
This represents breakthroughs that redefine our understanding of technology, physics, and even reality itself. At Tier-0, technology is no longer just an improvement of existing principles but something fundamentally revolutionary, beyond what was previously thought possible.
As Tyler explained his classification of technology based on complexity, technicality, and advancement, Kallus listened intently, absorbing the information.
After thinking for a while, Kallus spoke. He commended Tyler and his team for their work and continued, "This makes things easier for us. Not too far in the future—at most in one or two weeks—we will officially form the alliance as you know it. At that time, we will need to list our technologies in the Merit Exchange Hall. Then, we will have to organize them based on their advancement, complexity, and destructive capabilities."
He nodded in approval before adding, "Now that you’ve already done this, your work is quite good."
Tyler didn’t react much physically, but internally, he felt quite satisfied. Even though it was a minor task that wouldn’t have taken much time to redo, receiving praise—even for something small—was gratifying, especially coming from Kallus, their leader.
He nodded and then began showing and explaining the designs.

Tyler did not react much physically, but internally, he felt quite satisfied. Even though it was a minor task that would not have taken much time to redo, receiving praise—even for something small—was gratifying, especially coming from Kallus, their leader.
He nodded and then began showing and explaining the designs.
Tyler first began with an A-shaped planetary defense fighter craft, built with a mix of bulkiness and sleek aerodynamics. Its forward-swept wings gave it a distinctive profile, and its four-photon engines, equipped with thrust vectoring, allowed for high maneuverability despite its heavier frame.
Name: - Aegies Talon
The name reflected its roles as a planetary defense craft – " Aegies" symbolizing its protective role and "Talon" representing its aggressive, close-range lethality.
[Specifications]
- Length 15 meters
- Width 13.8 meters
- Height 2.8 meters
- Role Planetary Defense
- Power Source Tier-2 Small-Scale Fusion Reactor
[Weaponry]
- Four Forward tier-1 Point-Defense Lasers Designed for intercepting incoming threats and engaging agile enemy craft.
- One Large-Caliber Canister-Shot Cannon ("Shotgun Cannon") A devastating close-range weapon that fired high-energy rounds, which fragmented into destructive shards upon impact. This made it especially effective against lightly armored ships, tearing through weak defenses with concentrated fire.
Despite its bulk, the fighter was designed for rapid-response planetary defense, using its powerful weaponry to disable or destroy small, fast-moving threats before they could breach defenses.
The fighter itself was aerodynamic and fully capable of space combat, but its primary role remained planetary defense.
Its forward-swept wings and streamlined design allowed it to operate efficiently within atmospheric conditions, making it a formidable interceptor against planetary incursions. While it could engage in dogfights beyond the atmosphere, its systems were optimized for rapid-response defense within gravity wells.
Kallus sighed as he studied the design. He had seen this fighter craft countless times before—one of the best planetary defense fighters available, widely adopted by wealthy states and powerful empires in his game.
It was not just a common sight; it was a staple of high-tier planetary defense fleets, a symbol of wealth and military might.
Its forward-swept wings and powerful thrust-vectoring engines made it incredibly agile for a bulky frame, while its fusion reactor ensured sustained power for both movement and weapon systems.
The shotgun-like Canister-Shot Cannon was infamous for its devastating close-range attacks, capable of shredding lightly armored ships in seconds. Combined with the point-defense lasers, it was a nightmare for smaller strike craft and bombers attempting to breach planetary defenses.
For Kallus, it was both impressive and frustrating. Every time he launched an assault on a well-funded system, these fighters were there, making his job harder. Their design wasn’t flashy, nor were they the pinnacle of technological innovation—but they were brutally efficient. And that was what made them a problem.
