240: Chapter 240 Returning to the Scene

Chu Ge was so excited he almost jumped for joy on the spot.

"This... this is truly heaven helping me."

"Um, Elder Huang, have you analyzed the molecular composition of the metal in this interlayer and the conduits yet?"

"Not yet, but it's all part of the research process."

Elder Huang answered truthfully.

"This research report must be completed as soon as possible; I'm waiting to use it. I suspect this is one of the component systems of the Warp Engine."

"And it is precisely the part that our Warp Engine was missing."

Chu Ge spoke excitedly to Elder Huang. Elder Huang was the main person in charge of manufacturing the Nuclear Fusion Engine.

Chu Ge had discussed many details about the Warp Engine with him, so as soon as Chu Ge said those words...

Elder Huang was stunned on the spot.

"Academician Chu, are you sure?"

"I'm sure. The next time we go to the underground cavern, tell the engineers to pay attention to collecting fragments of this structure."

"Once found, make sure to mark its position and the surrounding physical environment."

"I need to reverse-engineer its layout within the entire ship based on the distribution of its fragments."

"That way, I'll be able to draw up the blueprint for the entire Warp Engine, haha."

By the end of his sentence, Chu Ge had already broken into a laugh.

This Warp Engine was something he had dreamed of. Now that it was lost and found again, how could he not be happy?

Elder Huang nodded in agreement, equally excited. He hurriedly organized the relevant experts to analyze the molecular composition of the fragment's remaining structure.

Chu Ge stayed with Elder Huang for a while longer before rushing back to his office.

He needed to reorganize the relevant data and technical blueprints for the Warp Engine.

In particular, he needed to re-plan the portion concerning the main medium in the Posterior Expansion Warp Engine.

The structural blueprint for this part previously provided by the system was basically useless now. Chu Ge needed to try and complete the upgrade and modification of the Warp Engine himself, without the data support of System Big Brother.

This was a challenge.

However, Chu Ge accepted it gladly. He had the confidence to complete this challenge.

As for where that confidence came from, even he didn't know. Perhaps it was the accumulation of knowledge from his research work over the past two years.

Or perhaps it came from that miraculous Gene Medicine...

Over the next day and a half, Chu Ge kept himself locked in this small room on the aerospace carrier.

He was writing the theoretical portion of the Warp Engine.

After that came the data, and then the overall technical drawings.

Of course, he couldn't do the final drawings yet because he was missing the full ship layout for the Bionic System.

He wasn't in a hurry for this either; tomorrow, the transport ship would bring up the demolition equipment Academician Chen had prepared for him.

The engineering team would then be able to return to that area.

He could fill in this part then.

After Chu Ge completed the entire set of theoretical data, he reviewed it again and found that the theory was still missing a very critical node.

According to his conjecture, the role of the ultrapure water should be similar to the role of blood in animal tissues.

Transporting and preserving dark matter.

Those nanoconduits should be the blood vessels that encase the blood.

What was missing was a medium or technology to purify dark matter into the ultrapure water.

When applied to a Bionic System, this thing should mimic the function of an enzyme.

Chu Ge guessed that this key secret must be hidden in that honeycomb structure or some device they hadn't discovered yet.

These were all areas that required special attention in the upcoming exploration operations.

After saving the relevant data, Chu Ge stood up and stretched his limbs.

"Everything is moving in a good direction. I hope I still have enough time."

Chu Ge murmured to himself, his gaze looking out at the Lunar Base.

After the Gravity Devices were laid out, the surface of the moon finally had different colors.

It was a deep black that stood in stark contrast to the surrounding gray tones.

Each set of Gravity Devices would form a closed circle, with equidistant intervals between the circles.

What Chu Ge was seeing now was precisely part of that group of circles. It looked magnificent, like crop circles spread out on the ground.

Chu Ge felt that if viewed from directly above, the pattern would look more like ripples on a calm water surface...

When Chu Ge stepped out of the office again, it was exactly the moment they were about to return to the underground cavern.

The engineering vehicles were all in place. Chu Ge's forces were now strong and numerous.

Chu Ge stood at the Hub Station. Captain Gong immediately pulled down the airlock next to him, and the indicator lights ahead began to change.

Once the green light came on, the airlock door opened.

As Chu Ge stepped out of the aerospace carrier, Captain Wang and the others were already prepared. Chu Ge looked behind him, where construction crew members stood in dense ranks.

The number of people had doubled again.

Chu Ge then gave the order to depart, and all the members boarded the nearby vehicles in an orderly fashion.

The convoy set off. An hour later, they would arrive at their destination on time.

Upon returning to this mysterious area, Chu Ge ignored the Soul Blades.

He didn't have the mind for that now.

He led a team of engineering personnel a step ahead, heading straight for the ship wreckage.

After arriving at the scene, Chu Ge turned to look at Academician Huang.

"Elder Huang, do you still remember the location where that fragment was found?"

"I remember. We numbered every fragment we extracted, and the locations were marked accordingly."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ge clapped his hands. If he could, he really wanted to give Academician Huang a thumbs up.

"Good. These fragments should all be distributed on the outermost layer of the starship. I guess the larger portion should still be on the hull."

"Your task today is to follow the engineering personnel and collect all the fragment information."

"Alright." After Elder Huang replied, he led Yan Tianhao and the others to prepare for the relevant work.

After walking around, Chu Ge came before the Star Soul.

He had wanted to try and see if he could communicate with this thing again today.

But before he even reached the shield, the electric arcs on it suddenly leaped out.

Chu Ge was startled.

"What's this? Turning your back on family? I'm your distant host, you know."

The blue Energy Ball continued to go its own way.

"General Chu, it seems you really did stumble in by sheer luck that day. Look, it's treating us all the same now."

Captain Gong spoke from the side, a hint of amusement in his voice.

"Yeah, this thing is probably on its period today!"

After saying that, Chu Ge turned and left.

Captain Gong stood frozen on the spot with his mouth open. Chu Ge's words had truly shocked him.

The engineering personnel from the back were gradually arriving here.

Chu Ge looked toward the shaft, where there was now a winding stream of vehicles slowly moving toward him.

Soon, the convoy passed by Chu Ge one by one, then made a 90-degree turn and continued toward the rear of the ship.

The engineering team had a clear division of labor: some were setting up searchlight groups, others were building temporary camps.

More were recovery squads targeting the starship wreckage; they would process the entire starship in sections.

By coordinating with the research team to dismantle the wreckage, Chu Ge and the others could finally enter the interior of this giant starship.

Chu Ge watched from the side as the engineering team rapidly deployed their equipment.

Several beams of searchlight also converged.

Over twenty demolition machines started up almost simultaneously. As they pried open the twisted armor bit by bit...

Chu Ge's heart, which had long been restless, instantly leaped into his throat.
