Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster!-Chapter 258 - 108: Cold Start Phase Two, Complete!
Chapter 258: Chapter 108: Cold Start Phase Two, Complete!
When Chen Jian received the message from He Shuo, it was already midnight, and by the time he finished reading it, it was 12 o’clock at night.
According to the management left behind more than three hundred years ago, Fu Xi had lit a fire and left some food at the outpost around the base. Chen Jian happened to be hungry, so he decided to go to the outpost to grab a bite.
But unexpectedly, when he reached the open ground outside the base, he discovered that standing outside were not only sentries and the refugees who had just arrived here, but also Huang Yu, along with three shivering Huaxia Army soldiers braving the cold wind.
"What are you guys doing?"
Chen Jian asked curiously while picking up a bowl to serve himself porridge.
"Report, Commander, their internal affairs were not up to standard, so I punished them to stand!"
Huang Yu replied with a strong voice. Chen Jian couldn’t help but shake his head with a wry smile, thinking to himself:
Goodness, if you can’t play with magic carpets without a building, you’re resorting to this?
You said you needed to suppress it, and you went straight to action?
Chen Jian cast a meaningful glance at the three punished soldiers, and the three, who initially had a hint of grievance in their eyes, immediately adjusted their expressions.
In the biting cold wind, the three stood motionless.
Until Chen Jian finished his porridge, and Huang Yu ordered a dismissal, did the three shiveringly run back inside the fortifications.
Chen Jian stopped Huang Yu who intended to follow them back, then said:
"You also have a bowl of porridge. I want to discuss something with you."
Upon hearing Chen Jian’s words, Huang Yu was momentarily stunned and instinctively stood up straight, then immediately said:
"Commander, please go ahead, I’m listening!"
"Sit down!"
Chen Jian glared at him. The latter hesitated a little before sitting down, and only then did Chen Jian continue:
"It’s not about corporal punishment—you should punish when it’s needed. The team is handed over to you, so leading it is your responsibility. Without special circumstances, I won’t interfere."
"It’s something else that I need your opinion on."
As he spoke, Huang Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He coughed awkwardly and said:
"I thought you found me too strict... What would you like to ask me?"
Chen Jian organized his words slightly and laid out the plans of the Mechanical God Sect and He Shuo to Huang Yu.
Then he said:
"So that’s the situation."
"Now, we plan to create one or a series of industrial wonders to match He Shuo’s movement of deification."
"But we face a problem."
"What kind of wonders can bring the greatest shock to those Mechanical God Sect followers?"
"We don’t understand this because we have seen too much and take it for granted."
"As for those naturally ’divine’ colossal structures, we can’t create them for now."
"So, I want to ask you, from your perspective... what kind of ’miracle’ would shock you the most or even make you believe in the existence of gods?"
"...If you hadn’t told me beforehand, everything here would make me believe in the existence of gods."
Huang Yu earnestly said:
"The vast underground constructions, the intelligent machines, the superior living environment... In this wasteland, this place is no different from the so-called ’Kingdom of Gods’."
"But it seems... we can’t move the things here over there?"
"Maybe we could use the... projector in the base to project images into smoke?"
"That’s the crux of the problem."
Chen Jian shook his head and said:
"That was also my initial thought, but the problem is, there’s no equipment in this base capable of performing large-scale projections."
"The largest projector can only project images several meters square, with dismally low brightness."
"So, this solution can’t be executed."
"What we can choose are things closer to ’reality.’
"Something within our capabilities, that can easily remind those believers of ’divine messages.’
"...If that’s the case, it must differ from what the Mechanical God Sect has previously mentioned."
"Things like the Holy Elephant, and Battle Armor are definitely out."
Huang Yu pondered:
"At least for me, even though I’m not a follower of the Mechanical God Sect, I’ve heard of these widely spread concepts."
"These things are already tied to the Mechanical God Sect. Even if we bring them out, most civilians would still think they belong to the Mechanical God Sect by default?"
"On the contrary, I feel what you saw, Commander, at that... Air Force Tenth Division Base was incredibly shocking."
"Even just seeing photos brought a strong sense of oppression."
"Especially when you think that it can fly, it’s even more unbelievable."
"After all, those things are a completely different concept from the drones I’ve already seen."
"It’s just a pity that those things can’t fly anymore..."
"Indeed..."
Chen Jian nodded thoughtfully, but soon, something sparked in his mind.
The aircraft at the Air Force Tenth Division Base couldn’t fly, but in his hands, there was still a fixed-wing aircraft that could!
The reconnaissance and strike integrated drone at Base 095!
Although it’s "small," its wingspan is nearly 10 meters.
Coupled with its flying wing configuration, the noise of its jet engine, and its speed exceeding Mach 1... freēnovelkiss.com
Such a thing flying in the sky is much stronger than those small, even "micro" unmanned combat clusters used with the 30A!
This thing might become a crucial symbol.
Kingdom of God, sky, machinery.
What could be more suitable than a large aircraft?
