With the cooperation of the two of them, the maintenance of the Tempest God progressed very quickly. The preliminary maintenance flowchart was drawn in only half a day.
The maintenance and adjustment of all kinds of crystal suits were pushed forward smoothly, too.
Li Linghai granted Li Yao the maintenance permissions of almost all the Crystal Suit in the Deep Sea Fleet.
The experts such as Tu Zhengdao even begged Li Yao to help them adjust the Crystal Suit.
After all, the Crystal Suit was the life of the Exo. On the battlefield, even if the performance of the Crystal Suit was only improved by 1%, it would significantly increase the odds of survival.
After only one day, Li Yao got in touch with more than thirty of the most advanced advanced Crystal Suit.
Through the Crystal Suit, he also got to know the experts, commandos, and commanders of the Deep Sea Fleet. Through the tiny scratches on their Crystal Suit and their self-descriptions, he knew their battle styles and their general level as well as his own.
Master Jin Tianzong observed Li Yao's adjustment of the Crystal Suit carefully. After watching Li Yao adjust more than thirty Crystal Suits of different styles and models, he was completely awed by the agility and precision of Li Yao's hands. After the day's work was over, he offered to bring out the structure designs of the "Hybrid Crystal Suit" and studied them with Li Yao.
It was exactly what Li Yao wanted.
However, after studying carefully for a night, Li Yao also realized why Master Jin Tianzong's research had been halted.
The concept of the "Hybrid Crystal Suit" was too advanced after all. There were too many complicated rune arrays and structures, which determined that it was impossible for it to be mass-produced under the current technological conditions.
Furthermore, the precision of many details had reached an appalling 0.05 thread. Not only could the tools on the assembly line not reach that level, even the experienced refiners could barely polish it manually.
And the Crystal Reactor was the most important unit in the Crystal Suit. Even if there was a 0.1 thread error, it could cause the Crystal Suit to lose control, paralyze, or even explode.
No wonder the Imperial Polytechnical University scoffed at Master Jin Tianzong's design and even disgraced him in the circle of refiners of the Imperium, and he was regarded as a fraud who was fishing for fame.
It was no wonder that Master Jin Tianzong took out the design that he considered a treasure on the first day he met Li Yao. Only Li Yao's astonishing hand speed and senses could've possibly ground the abnormal components and thin chips that Master Jin Tianzong needed.
"Fellow Daoist Li, I've already tried every method, but they all failed."
Brilliance as thick as magma was spurting out of Master Jin Tianzong's eyes. Thick veins were bulging on the back of his hands, neck, and forehead. He was almost roaring, "Now, your hands are the only thing that can help me! I believe that God sent you here, so this experiment will definitely be a success! Let the two of us join hands and shock the entire refiner circle of the empire! "
…
Twelve hours passed.
In the Crystal Suit test field in the maintenance workshop on Dragon Abyss …
Three Crystal Suits, in three streaks of brilliance, were fighting fiercely, one red, one yellow, and one black. Now and then, ripples of spiritual energy were raised from their collisions, which flooded the defense rune arrays around the Crystal Suit test field like surging tides, raising deafening noises.
Among them, the two Crystal Suits surrounded by yellow and black brilliance attacked the red Crystal Suit from the left and the right.
But the red Crystal Suit was not intimidated by the opponent's aggressive and incessant attacks at all. Instead, it was shuttling between the two opponents at ease.
The red Crystal Suit was tall, thick, and even had a high bulge on the back. It was a standard heavy Crystal Suit.
However, under the dazzling spray of scarlet red tail flames, its movements were erratic. It was like a ghost, but also like a butterfly shuttling through flowers, light and agile.
Not only was it not stalled by the two opponents, it took advantage of the two opponents' lack of cooperation and circled to the back of the two opponents time and time again, using them as its shields.
"Aooooo!"
The opponent in the yellow Crystal Suit finally could not stand the 'teasing' anymore. In crazy roars, its body expanded nonstop. Even the Cosmos Rings embedded inside the Crystal Suit spurted out more units and strengthening components, which were attracted to each other by the electromagnetic force, making the Crystal Suit even larger, fiercer, and more hideous. The sharpest thorns appeared on the shoulders, breastplate, elbows, and knees. It was truly like a giant crab that was wearing armor and wielding weapons!
Tsunami-like exhaust flames burst out of the back of the black Crystal Suit, too. Its speed was instantly improved to a higher level, and it turned into almost a hundred blurred shadows, trapping the red Crystal Suit tightly.
The glittering 'crab' was about to pinch the arms of the red Crystal Suit with its' iron pincers'.
In the meantime, the super-alloy high-frequency vibration blades in the hands of the black Crystal Suit were moving from the bottom to the top at the spiritual energy transmission tubes on the back of the red Crystal Suit insidiously.
Any of the attacks of the two Crystal Suits would have been enough to make the red Crystal Suit lose its combat ability completely as long as it hit the target.
However, the red Crystal Suit was enshrouded into a dazzling ball of lightning by the exhaust flames that were surging out of its body in the blink of an eye.
The ball of lightning raised deafening noises. Even the two Crystal Suit that were attacking were stunned for a moment.
In the middle of the thunderous noises, countless streaks of brilliance burst out of the lightning and dodged all the attacks of the two Crystal Suit with ease. However, they were condensed behind the yellow Crystal Suit again.
A powerful kick that was as intimidating as the main gun of a crystal warship smashed the waist of the yellow Crystal Suit brutally, breaking it into pieces. The Crystal Suit that weighed several tons crashed into the defense rune array like a kite whose string had been cut off. Taking advantage of the moment when the broken pieces disrupted the vision and the probe magical equipment of the black Crystal Suit, Li Yao took the opportunity to dash forward. The edge condensed of spiritual energy pierced into the chest of the black Crystal Suit directly like a bloody saber. The flames of spiritual energy entangled the black Crystal Suit like crimson vipers, completely paralyzing every rune array on the surface of the black Crystal Suit!
The yellow Crystal Suit fell to the ground and could not get up. Clusters of sparks spurted out crazily. The lubricant and the blood of the wearer were all over the ground.
The black Crystal Suit maintained the posture of attack, like a dumbfounded statue. It was not until three seconds later that it slowly fell to the ground.
BOOM!
The red Crystal Suit killed two strong enemies instantly, but it had serious faults, too. The units that rose high on the back of the suit were exploding, with stinky black smoke popping up.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
The yellow Crystal Suit and the black Crystal Suit were decomposed. Li Jialing and Tu Zhengdao crawled out and breathed hard, observing the red Crystal Suit in disbelief.
The red Crystal Suit was decomposed like a blossoming flower, too. Li Yao walked out, deep in thought.
"Master Jin Tianzong was quite right. The hybrid structure is indeed a next-generation power output model that is more advanced than the linkage structure. It represents the future development of the Crystal Suit. However, it is indeed technically difficult to polish it. This prototype has been polished by Master Jin Tianzong for years and polished by me carefully, but it is still not stable enough. It has already malfunctioned after a casual activity … What do you think?"
Li Yao looked at Tu Zhengdao and Li Jialing, who were sweating hard and breathing hard.
"I think that you are a monster."
Tu Zhengdao breathed hard and said.
Li Jialing shook his big furry head and nodded hard.
Right then, the starship shivered and slowed down for a moment.
They had arrived at the "Deep Sea Palace", the nest of the Deep Sea Fleet and the home base of Queen Li Linghai!
…
On the bridge of Dragon Abyss …
Li Yao and Li Jialing stood on Li Linghai's left and right sides respectively, observing the broken planet that had almost been completely modified into machines.
The planet was somewhat similar to the "Ice King Project" that Li Yao had seen in the Flying Star Sector. The entire planet was hollowed out, installed with enormous power rune arrays, and transformed into a gargantuan space fortress.
The Ice King Project of the Flying Star Sector was a magnificent project in the Star Ocean Imperium. The planetary fortress that had been highly modified was a legacy of the Star Ocean Imperium, too.
Otherwise, with the technological capabilities of the Cultivators of the Flying Star Sector at that time, it would have been impossible for them to perform such complicated and magnificent modifications on a planet.
Since it was a magnificent project in the Star Ocean Imperium, it was only natural that a tiny planet at the edge of the cosmos was modified.
The planet that Li Linghai used as her nest had been through similar modifications, and the modifications were even more thorough. More than 80% of the surface of the planet had been mechanized and militarized, and it was ready for a real battle.
However, it had been seriously damaged in the bloody battles ten thousand years ago, too. It was like a skull that was riddled with holes and empty inside.
The planet and the vast space zone around it were not recorded in any of the space maps of the Imperium. Few people knew of its existence.
In the past ten thousand years, it had been living alone in the depths of the dark, boundless sea of stars in dead silence.
However, in the past hundred years, and especially in the last thirty to fifty years, countless rebels who were dissatisfied, ambitious, and hated the rulers of the Star Ocean Imperium had come to this place. They rediscovered the spaceports, arsenals, and relics of the Star Ocean Imperium ten thousand years ago. They also recruited the most dangerous ambitious and desperadoes from everywhere and built the place into a tiger's den, or rather, a palace in the deep sea!
Dragon Abyss slowly sailed into the planetary fortress that was known as' Dragon Palace '. Li Yao boosted his eyesight to the maximum. He could see hundreds of starships docked in space in a neat row. The highly-rising command tower looked like the dorsal fin of a man-eating shark.
A lot of starships and Crystal Suit attack groups were also practicing the cooperation between the Crystal Suit and the starships in the near-planet orbit. They were well-trained and well-versed in tactics, and they were as good as the Burning Prairie Fleet, one of the best deep-sky fleets of the Federation.
"The Deep Sea Fleet is not a random mob. Even in the most difficult times, I never thought of recruiting the notorious space pirates to build up my strength. Just like how I treated Li Lingfeng, quality is more important than quantity. Instead of recruiting the 'useless teammates' to hinder me, I would rather fight alone!"
