Chapter 284: No room for error!
Commander Liu Chengzhi took the blueprints again and began to examine them meticulously.
He looked as if he were trying to find some hidden treasure within the drawings!
However, after staring at them for a long time, he remained completely confused and couldn't understand a thing.
He helplessly raised his head, looked at Su Chen, and asked with a puzzled expression:
"What exactly is this thing, and what is its purpose?"
Su Chen smiled. Thinking that if he got too technical or detailed, Commander Liu Chengzhi probably wouldn't understand, he decided to keep it simple and straightforward:
"You might not understand if I explain it in too much detail, so I'll put it simply!"
"With the device in these blueprints, our Aerospace Carrier can instantly travel from our territory to the airspace of the Eagle Nation."
Upon hearing this, Commander Liu Chengzhi was truly startled. His eyes widened in astonishment, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "It's that badass?"
Su Chen nodded affirmatively and said:
"It is exactly that badass!"
Commander Liu Chengzhi was incredibly excited. As a high-ranking general of the Dragon Kingdom, he knew the importance of military strategy and tactics, and he understood how massive a change this technology would bring to the Dragon Kingdom's military power once realized.
This meant that the mobility of the Dragon Kingdom's military could be elevated to the extreme!
They could appear behind enemy lines in an instant, catching them off guard and dealing them a heavy blow.
"Wait, no. With something like this, why am I still thinking about tactics? It would be so much better to just appear directly at the enemy's command headquarters and decapitate their leadership."
Commander Liu Chengzhi thought excitedly, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this technology was truly incredible!
It was simply a "divine weapon" that could change the landscape of war.
However, what terrified him even more was...
Su Chen had just said that he could build this Space Warp Engine!
This was completely beyond his expectations.
He hurriedly confirmed it once more:
"Little Chen, can you really build this thing?"
Su Chen smiled calmly and said with full confidence:
"Give me some time, and I will build the finished product for you to see."
Su Chen had actually estimated the time in his mind and continued: "At most, it will take three months to build this Space Warp Engine."
Su Chen felt that he could build the Space Warp Engine in three months, but that didn't mean the engine was simple or easy to manufacture!
In fact, if it were in the past, with conventional research and manufacturing progress, it might have taken a year or two to build.
But things were different now!
During his previous research, Su Chen had inadvertently completed the most difficult part of the Space Warp Engine, so the manufacturing time could be greatly shortened now.
The Space Warp Engine needed to distort space to achieve speeds faster than light, and this process required a massive amount of energy.
Previously, experts speculated that even if all the energy of the entire Blue Planet were combined, it might not be enough to achieve space distortion.
In fact, this claim was incorrect. After Su Chen fully digested the series of rewards—including the relevant theories and manufacturing methods—provided by the system, he already understood the Space Warp Engine very well!
The energy required for this engine was not particularly terrifying; the energy generated by just two Nuclear Fusion Reactors was enough to achieve space distortion!
Of course, for now, this range was only about the size of one Aerospace Carrier!
If he wanted to expand the range further, he would need more energy.
Upon hearing his words, Commander Liu Chengzhi rubbed his hands together excitedly!
His eyes were full of anticipation as he asked again:
"Little Chen, how confident are you that you can build this thing?"
As soon as he said this, Su Chen could tell that Commander Liu Chengzhi was quite interested in the Space Warp Engine.
Su Chen thought for a moment and said very firmly: "Ninety-nine percent!"
Upon hearing this, Commander Liu Chengzhi immediately burst into laughter. His laughter was filled with joy and excitement as he said "Good" three times in a row: "Ninety-nine percent, good, good, good! You really are something, kid!"
"Alright then, I'll wait for your good news!"
As he spoke, Commander Liu Chengzhi prepared to leave. After all, the mission was accomplished, and he didn't dare to delay Su Chen's research. This was a matter of national importance, and every minute and every second was precious.
However, just as he stood up, he seemed to suddenly remember something important. He stopped in his tracks, turned, and said to Su Chen:
"Oh right, Little Chen, how do you think we should handle the Smith situation!"
"I don't know how to explain it to the higher-ups either."
"If you say these blueprints are useful, you've already said they're just concept drawings with no research value. But if you say they're useless, they were still helpful to you."
"I was thinking that a black cat or a white cat, if it catches mice, it's a good cat. But on second thought, the guy just brought some useless files and wants to join our country. Who knows what's really going on in his mind."
Seeing that Commander Liu Chengzhi was still struggling with this issue, Su Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He thought of an idea, leaned in close to Commander Liu Chengzhi, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Upon hearing this, Commander Liu Chengzhi burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears were almost coming out!
While laughing, he said: "Hahaha, when did you become so devious, kid! Good, good, good, let's do exactly as you said!"
Looking at his expression, it seemed Su Chen's idea was exceptionally brilliant!
Afterward, Commander Liu Chengzhi left the Laboratory!
After obtaining the relevant technology for the Space Warp Engine, Su Chen, like an arrow released from a bow, dove straight into the Laboratory and began the manufacturing work for the Space Warp Engine without stopping.
Once he immersed himself in it, he returned to his usual "workaholic" combat mode!
His entire focus was concentrated on the research and manufacturing at hand!
It was as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
The higher-ups were well aware of the importance and high intensity of Su Chen's work. Fearing that his body wouldn't be able to handle it, they specifically equipped him with an entire health support team.
This team was no simple matter; its members were all famous experts in nutrition in the Dragon Kingdom!
Their task was to monitor Su Chen's physical condition at all times, providing professional guidance and control over every aspect, from dietary combinations to sleep schedule adjustments!
Nowadays, Su Chen's health management had been designated as a top-priority task!
There was absolutely no room for any mistakes!
He was currently involved in too many key projects concerning the future development of the country.
Just when Su Chen was engrossed in his research, his phone, which had been placed to the side, suddenly rang!
The ringtone sounded exceptionally abrupt in the quiet Laboratory.
Su Chen stopped what he was doing and picked it up. He saw that it was actually his father calling. He was slightly stunned, then pressed the answer button, and Father Su's excited voice immediately rang out.
"Son, are you busy?"
"I have some great news to tell you."
