Chapter 32

They were perfectly clear about the purpose of their arrival.

What else could it be?

The Anywhere Door, of course.

Begging for flowers, begging for reviews.

29. The Influence of the Anywhere Door, Upgrading the Snow Robe.

Lin Qi did not obtain the Anywhere Door from the gacha for long, and only drew it from the gacha after leaving the Company.

Moreover, since he drew a technology, it took quite some time from research to construction.

A considerable portion of that time was spent on material collection.

So until the incident involving Qingque, no one knew.

But regarding the potential impact the Anywhere Door might cause, Lin Qi had a rough idea in his mind.

Although it cannot traverse the void between star systems, it is still an extremely heaven-defying "transportation tool" capable of solving the final logistical obstacles within a star system in one fell swoop.

As long as the Anywhere Door can be rolled out on a large scale, the lifestyle of everyone in the universe will change.

It is an invention more important than the Synesthesia Beacon and long-range remote sensing communication combined.

Sufficient to bring prosperity to the universe once again.

Unfortunately...

It cannot be mass-produced for now.

Even the youth version that Qingque obtained required considerable effort to craft.

But even so, it still holds value.

From civilian to military use, this is the case.

Otherwise, why would the Company have set off immediately upon learning the news?

And this time, it wasn't just Topaz who came.

There was also her superior, Lady Jade of rank P46.

"Still a kindergarten version? Lower it a bit more, and will it become a tadpole?"

After the chat ended, Lin Qi couldn't help but complain.

But then again, Topaz's idea is not impossible to achieve.

As long as...

Enough functions are castrated.

"Forget it, let's talk when they arrive."

The client hasn't arrived yet, so Lin Qi, as the contractor, shouldn't get excited on his own; he'll just see their requirements then and determine if they can be realized.

Anyway, this client has plenty of money.

From the Company headquarters, Penacony, to Luo Fu, the distance is not very close; even the Company's fastest spaceship would take half a month to arrive.

Although leaping along the Star Rail does not take much time.

But the Star Rail is not connected as a single piece.

Many of them have broken under the calamity of the Stellaron.

Even when the Aeon of Trailblaze was still alive, there was a considerable distance between each segment of the Star Rail.

The Star Rail mostly carries transportation between star systems.

And from one segment of the Star Rail to the next, which is the distance within a star system, one still has to fly slowly at thousands of times the speed of light.

This also shows the importance of the Anywhere Door.

Used together with the Star Rail, travel time can be shortened by hundreds or even thousands of times!

Not exaggerated at all.

There are many smart people in the universe, and even more with ambition.

Their power might not compare to the Company's, but their desire for the Anywhere Door will absolutely not be inferior to the Company's.

For a moment.

Factions with some strength in the universe became restless.

Some plotted in secret, while others contacted Lin Qi, offering one astonishing price after another.

But Lin Qi replied to none of them except the Company.

Just kidding.

Is there a bigger buyer than the Company?

So, during the wait for Topaz's arrival, Lin Qi did not discuss matters concerning the Anywhere Door with anyone else.

Even when Qingque came to his door, troubled and consulting him on how to handle the Anywhere Door, Lin Qi only told her to do whatever she wanted, leaving Qingque to depart with a bitter face.

With her intelligence, she must have realized how hot the Anywhere Door is.

Even though the one in her hands can only teleport within Luo Fu.

And during this waiting period, Lin Qi did not idle at all.

Besides his research, he had already started the upgrade plan for the Snow Robe.

"How is it? Do you feel anything? Should I stop for a moment?"

"Doctor, you need not worry about me; I feel no pain."

"Is that so? I thought you Xianzhou people would be different."

"There is no difference either, besides, I am a mechanical body."

"I certainly know that, and having to modify a flesh-and-blood body, I truly cannot bring myself to do it."

Conversation came from the "Grotto-Heaven" of a certain shop.

The speakers were naturally Lin Qi and Xueyi.

At this moment.

Lin Qi was, according to plan, upgrading Xueyi's puppet body, and it was already nearing completion.

Although from the outside, Xueyi showed no changes at all.

But only those who understood knew what terrifying power was hidden beneath this petite shell.

The body was primarily made of a material similar to "Water Drop," namely Element Zero.

And the so-called Element Zero, also known as neutronium, came from the "minerals" of a collapsing star in Lin Qi's possession, possessing extreme density and hardness.

Saying it could defend against a nuclear bomb was an insult to it.

In fact.

It could withstand planet-destroying attacks!

Furthermore, Lin Qi had also added Vibranium capable of absorbing kinetic energy, further strengthening the shell's physical defense capabilities.

Additionally, a small amount of Soul Steel was added.

Actually, calling it "steel" is not very accurate.

The Accurate statement should be "nanobot swarm," which can serve as weapons, computing units, and even bear a soul.

The core region placed by Lin Qi inside Xueyi's body is generally not activated.

It is only used at critical moments to preserve her consciousness.

Then there is the energy module; Lin Qi adopted two power supply methods, with Imaginary Energy as the primary and Vacuum Zero-Point Energy as the secondary.

Imaginary Energy needs no further explanation; it is everywhere in this world.

In fact, whether Pathstriders or Emanators and Aeons, they all use Imaginary Energy.

It is merely a matter of how much they can mobilize.

Lin Qi's Imaginary Energy generator, while not yet capable of reaching the Emanator level, is still greater than that of ordinary Pathstriders.

Based on this point alone, Xueyi's strength has increased significantly.

As for Vacuum Zero-Point Energy, as the name implies, it utilizes vacuum fluctuations; its efficiency is not very high, and its power is far inferior to Imaginary Energy, but like Imaginary Energy, it is everywhere.

Even...

If one changes universes and arrives in a world without Imaginary Energy, it can still function.

That is to say, as long as it is not run at high power, it can be maintained indefinitely.

It can be considered a "half-step" perpetual motion machine.
