Chapter 41: Preparing for Liftoff

Ye Cang:!!!

Dad, they are all living dads!

The Taotie are truly blessed to have run into them!

If three million-ton-equivalent nuclear bombs are thrown out, I'm afraid that apart from the Taotie's Main Capital Ship and command ship, everything else will have to ascend to heaven on the spot!

But to be fair, ten-million-ton-equivalent nuclear bombs are indeed too exaggerated!

Consequently, Ye Cang waved his hand.

"Ahem, let's forget about the ten-million-ton-equivalent ones; million-ton-equivalent is enough for now."

After Ye Cang finished answering, he suddenly thought of a problem.

The Nantianmen Project was completed so quickly, so did the Great Wall Watch buff play a big role?

After thinking for a moment, Ye Cang asked: "By the way, let me ask you all, how did you manage to complete the Nantianmen Project in just half a year?"

After hearing this question, the researcher thought seriously before saying: "Chief Engineer Ye, you might not believe it when I say it."

"When we first saw the Nantianmen Project, the estimated completion time was 3 years! Even if we worked overtime without regard for our lives, it would still take 1 year."

"But after we officially took over the Nantianmen Project, it was as if we were suddenly helped by gods; whether it was calculating data or conducting experiments in person, the speed was at least three times faster than before!"

"Then, we started working overtime as if possessed, using glucose instead of meals."

"If it weren't for you coming..."

Speaking of this, an embarrassed expression appeared on the researcher's face.

Ye Cang didn't say anything, just looked at the appearance of the researcher in front of him.

Although he was as thin as before, at least he wasn't sallow and emaciated, and there was at least some flush on his face.

Immediately, Ye Cang glanced at the other researchers.

They all looked about the same; it seemed that after that day, under the supervision of the soldiers, they finally ate properly.

And that researcher seemed to have sensed Ye Cang's gaze.

He immediately said: "Chief Engineer Ye, ever since you left that day, we have been eating well and resting well. Please don't say we are courting death again."

Ye Cang smiled and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, he already understood in his heart that while the Nantianmen Project certainly had the buff's support to be this fast, what was more important was having such a group of researchers who forgot to eat and sleep.

If it weren't for them, even 10 more buffs would be useless!

It was also at this time that the researcher asked: "Chief Engineer Ye, now that the Luan Bird is finished, can it be test-flown?"

"After the test flight is over, it can officially ascend to the sky!"

However, after hearing this, the corners of Ye Cang's mouth curled upward, revealing a strange arc.

"Test flight?"

"Everyone, I'm afraid we can't test-fly it now!"

Once these words were spoken, all the researchers looked at each other in dismay; they didn't understand what Ye Cang meant by this.

Why can't we test-fly it?

If we don't test-fly it, how can we discover problems? If we fly it directly without a test flight, it's almost the same as courting death.

Thinking of this, all the researchers looked at Ye Cang in unison.

Facing everyone's gaze, Ye Cang said: "Everyone, listen to me. Our current situation is very severe; we simply don't have the conditions for a test flight."

"You also know that the Luan Bird is too big right now, unlike the Xuan Nu which is small and convenient for test flights."

Speaking of this, Ye Cang suddenly remembered one thing.

"By the way, have the Luan Bird and the White Emperor and the others been test-flown?"

The researcher replied immediately after hearing this: "Both of them have finished their test flights, and the results are perfect. The Chengying Tactical Unmanned Mecha has also been tested and there are no problems. The only thing is that the Luan Bird hasn't been test-flown."

"Now the Xuan Nu and the White Emperor have already been loaded onto the Xuan Nu."

Ye Cang nodded after hearing this, and then continued to talk about the Luan Bird.

"Back to the Luan Bird, Earth's outer space is already surrounded by aliens, and an interstellar invasion is about to happen, so test-flying the Luan Bird at this time is undoubtedly exposing our target!"

"Therefore, the Luan Bird can only ascend once; it cannot be test-flown!"

Once these words were spoken, a look of shock appeared on the researchers' faces.

Huh?

They thought that when Ye Cang said he was going to fight aliens back then, it was something like a joke, but now the aliens have really come?

Damn! This is truly outrageous! If we had known the aliens would really come, we would have let the Luan Bird carry a few more nuclear bombs. Having only one nuclear bomb is too stingy; this will make the aliens think we can't afford to treat them to nuclear bombs.

But Ye Cang didn't give them time to calm down, and instead said: "Last time I spoke with that person."

"That person told me that when the Nantianmen Project is completed, I must call him; he wants to come and witness it in person! And he wants to ride the Luan Bird!"

Once these words were spoken, the originally quiet scene became even more chaotic.

"Ah? That person is coming too!"

"Damn, Chief Engineer Ye, you are too treacherous, why didn't you say so earlier!"

"Exactly! You should have said so earlier!"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. Hurry up and check the Luan Bird a few more times. We must truly confirm there are no problems!"

Following these words, all the researchers scattered and began to inspect it.

And Ye Cang stood there quietly, waiting for everyone.

The researchers inspected for a full 5 or 6 hours.

At this time, the time had already reached 10 o'clock in the middle of the night.

It was only at this time that the researchers finished their inspection.

"Chief Engineer Ye, we just checked inside and out several times, and we also measured the data several times. Theoretically speaking, there is absolutely no problem."

"But, you know... Chief Engineer Ye."

When saying this, a look of worry appeared on the researcher's face.

Ye Cang simply patted his shoulder.

"I understand what you mean, just do your best, leave the rest to me."

But after hearing Ye Cang's words, the researcher still wore a worried expression.

Seeing this, Ye Cang asked: "Right, I almost forgot to ask you all, tomorrow when the Luan Bird takes off, do you want to come along?"

"I mean sitting on the Luan Bird!"

Once these words were spoken, the eyes of the worried researcher suddenly lit up.

"Is that allowed?"

Ye Cang nodded.

"Of course it is, what's the big deal, you are their creators, naturally you can ride them!"

Upon hearing this, all the researchers present cheered.

Ye Cang then said: "Alright, it's getting late, you should all get some good rest."

"As for when the Luan Bird takes off, wait for my notification."

After finishing, Ye Cang left the place, preparing to go back and rest.

On the way back, Ye Cang kept thinking in his mind whether the 3 Luan Birds should take off together or one by one.

Soon, Ye Cang had the answer.

Naturally, one by one; that way, if there are any problems, they can be compared.

At the same time, Ye Cang also handed the control of the Luan Bird over to Zhizi to modify, letting it handle the operation.

And to prevent accidents from happening, Ye Cang also decided to bring two maintenance robots along!

With professional robots, maximum safety can be achieved!

After confirming everything, Ye Cang returned to his bedroom, washed up briefly, and rested.

Tomorrow morning, he has to call that person, so he must be full of energy.

In the blink of an eye, time arrived at the next morning.
