Ye Chong was busy again, but he never had time to relax.
The students' training was beginning to show results. Three months was not a short time. The hellish training, supplemented by Ye Chong's alchemy potions, made the students improve rapidly. Now, they didn't have the slightest bit of the frivolous air they had a few months ago. No one dared to play tricks in front of Liao San, the devil incarnate. Everyone's potential was squeezed out. If they could not keep up with the pace, they would end up in a terrible state. Instructor Liao's extra intensive private tutoring was notorious.
Even Duan Qian, who was already a beginner, could not help but feel nervous when he saw the students under Liao San's whip. In the past three months, Duan Qian improved the most. He had been learning alone in the dark, but now that he had a mentor to guide him, he improved rapidly.
Besides Duan Qian, there was another group of students who improved rapidly. These students were physically strong, and showed their talent in combat. The most surprising thing was that among this group of students, almost a third of them were from noble families. Their living conditions were good, and their bodies were better than those of the commoners. However, they were not strong enough because they enjoyed a comfortable life. However, under Instructor Liao's whip, everyone was equal. They could only bury their heads and train hard. This way, their advantages began to show, bit by bit.
Soon, these people were selected by Ye Chong. They would be trained differently from the other students. The other students looked at the selected students with envious eyes, while the selected students proudly puffed out their chests and raised their heads.
To Ye Chong's surprise, Shu Mo'er and her sister were among the selected students. They improved rapidly, and even Gui Gui, who was in charge of them, would occasionally praise them. Ye Chong did not have any prejudice against them. Strength was everything.
There were 5,000 students in this batch, which was the number agreed upon by Ye Chong and Sun Sieha. Ye Chong set up a new training ground in his manor. Duan Qian was responsible for teaching the students, and Liao San, the ace in the hole, supervised them. When the students saw Liao San, they all looked bitter. They had thought that they could escape from the devil, but Ye Chong had assigned Liao San as well.
The curriculum for the students had also changed. Physical training was a must every day, but other than that, Ye Chong had also introduced the steel ball training, which had been a headache for Ye Chong before. Ye Chong did not have steel balls, so he had to extract the rare metals from the rare ores he brought from Darkniss and make them into metal balls.
If anyone from He Yue Galaxy or the Five Major Galaxies were to witness this scene, they would be dumbfounded! It was too extravagant! Five thousand people were sitting on the ground in the huge training ground. Colorful metal balls were rolling and colliding on a wooden board in front of them. These metal balls were all made of rare metals!
Ye Chong had to refine all the ores he brought back into metal spheres, with the exception of a small portion left for analysis. That was barely enough for the five thousand people. After all, the Spider's storage room was almost completely filled with metal ores.
He was clumsy in the beginning, but he was not worried. It took him a long time to get used to the training.
Training was on the right track, and these days, Sunsieha did not bother him. Life was really beautiful!
Ye Chong immersed himself in his research. There were too many things for him to study. Even so, he would still spend some time every day training with Celest.
His underground base was almost complete, and the five laboratories were completed. Not only that, Ye Chong had also built a mech training ground for his own training.
He had already begun developing the snowshade leopard organization. However, if he wanted to upgrade Celest, he had to first understand the mech's structure. Celest was the product of the Research Consortium's best technology, and probably the most complicated mech. Even with the help of Kui's chip, it was not easy to understand the mech's structure.
Ye Chong was completely immersed in his research.
There was nothing in the world that could withstand the word 'serious'. This was one of Ye Chong's strengths.
However, the scale of the project was far beyond Ye Chong's expectations. He did not expect that it would take him six months to replace Celest with the snowshade leopard's muscles. Out of these six months, he had spent five months researching information. However, he only had a month to spend on leveling up.
With the snowshade leopard's muscles, Celest was so powerful that even Ye Chong found it frightening. Before this, Celest's strength and explosiveness had already reached a terrifying level. With this upgrade, Celest's strength had at least doubled. What did that mean? Ye Chong did not know. He only knew that with his strong body, piloting Celest at full speed would be too much for him to handle. Celest's upgrade this time was not only to its muscles, but also to its engines. The wood here had a very high affinity for energy and was light in weight. It was perfect for making engines. Ye Chong chose the best wood, but of course, it cost him a lot. The raw materials alone cost him 50 million ao.
It looked like his body needed more training! No matter what, he needed to be able to unleash Celest's full potential.
That was not all Ye Chong had gained from his painstaking research. He spent his days studying biology, and was exposed to high-level knowledge. Ye Chong's understanding of biology was improving rapidly. He could now build a bio-photon processor. Of course, his bio-photon processor was not as powerful as Celest's, but it was as good as a normal photon processor. This was enough for Ye Chong.
After spending six months in the underground base, Ye Chong met Xi Yan as soon as he came out.
Xi Yan saw Ye Chong and quickly said, "Teacher, Sir Xuan Ning has come to see you three times."
"Did he say anything?" Ye Chong asked. He suddenly remembered that he had promised to give him a Spider.
Xi Yan shook his head. "He didn't say anything. He only asked when you would come out, and then left."
Ye Chong nodded. "I understand. Xi Yan, you and Kristen will make two more sets of the spider parts. "Xuan Ning and Mei Wu would make one, so they could make two sets at once.
Xi Yan nodded. "Yes." During this period of time, Xi Yan felt as if he had been reborn. His teacher taught him not only about weapons, but also about machinery. This was an eye-opener for Xi Yan. In the past, he knew what to do with a weapon, but he did not know why to do it. Now that he had learned from his teacher, he was suddenly enlightened, and saw a whole new world for himself.
He now respected Ye Chong from the bottom of his heart.
Ye Chong arrived at the training ground. It was bustling with activity.
Clank, clank, clank! The metallic balls collided against each other like a thunderstorm. Every student stared intently at the wooden planks in front of them, their fingers moving the increasingly fast metallic balls with great dexterity. No one noticed Ye Chong's arrival. Liao San was patrolling the training ground with covetous eyes.
Among the students, Duan Qian was the fastest, followed by Shu Mo 'er and her sister, because all three of them had parapsychic waves. With parapsychic waves, they could sense the movements of the metallic balls. However, as the metallic balls moved faster and faster, their hands could not keep up with their parapsychic waves. Only then did they understand why Ye Chong was training them.
For the average students, the metallic ball training not only trained their hand speed, but also their reflexes. After six months of boring training, many of them almost gave up. However, Liao San said that His Majesty had decreed that anyone who could not continue would be sent to the labor camp. With that, everyone was shocked. Those who had wanted to give up had no choice but to press on.
It turned out that humans had great potential. Some of the less talented students had managed to reach their current level through the arduous training.
Sun Sieha was curious to see what kind of students Ye Chong would eventually train. That was why he had given such a strict order, to prevent the sly students from retreating. Everyone knew that His Majesty was decisive. No one thought that he was joking. At that moment, he mustered all his strength and trained with all his might. The labor camp was said to be a place where people would be eaten alive. Once they entered, they would never be able to leave again.
Sumen Sieha had been very busy lately, very busy. They had finally mastered the cannon array technology that Ye Chong had given them. Now, they had to mass produce them. However, when Master Karu and the rest understood the technology, Sun Sieha realized how much Ye Chong had earned from him.
That feeling really wasn't satisfying at all!
However, he had no time to worry about Ye Chong. He was now focused on the cannon array. The military had concluded that if cannon arrays could be used on a large scale, their combat power would be doubled. With the advent of the cannon array, the battle style would undergo a whole new change.
Almost all the military factories were producing cannons with all their might. Sumen Sieha was waiting, waiting for these powerful and cheap cannons to be fully equipped in the army. Apart from the cannons, the technology he bought from Kristin was also used in Eastern Cloud's military retooling operation.
Once Eastern Cloud was done with this, their military might would grow to an unprecedented level. Was there anything else that could make Sumensiye more excited and concerned? His ambition had been completely ignited this time! Ye Chong played an important role in this. Spies from other countries began to appear around the isolated manor.
However, Ye Chong did not have to worry about that. Sun Sieha waved his hand and designated the area as a military location. Unauthorized personnel were not allowed to approach. Every morning, a few corpses would appear, and the soldiers from the Royal Guards would bury them skillfully. They were used to this.
Ye Chong ignored all this. It had nothing to do with him. It had nothing to do with him whether Eastern Cloud could dominate the other countries or not. He did not need so many soldiers now. Besides, Ye Chong believed that unqualified soldiers would greatly reduce the combat power of an army. In his opinion, even the five thousand men under his command were far from being qualified.
Ye Chong estimated that it would take about three more months of hand speed training before they could reach the minimum standard he wanted. After such a long period of training, the physical fitness of these students had already reached the standard of passing. However, Ye Chong did not stop them from training. It was still a daily routine. In fact, physical training would continue throughout their training. Physical fitness was the foundation of a mech pilot.
Ye Chong did not expect much from them. Mach 5 was enough. When Ye Chong demonstrated what it meant to have top-notch hand speed, all the students were shocked.
They could not see the metal ball or the metal ball. Both Ye Chong's hands and the metal ball were just shadows. The sound of metal clashing was so intense that even a strong fighter like Liao San could not help but gulp. When Ye Chong announced the passing standard, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Those who passed the standard would begin another round of training. However, only three people had passed the standard so far. They were Duan Qian, Shu Mo'er, and her sister.
The three of them were given a strange keyboard, with all sorts of buttons arranged neatly on it. If any mech pilots were present, they would recognize that the keyboard looked exactly like a mech's control panel. The buttons were also arranged in the same way. The three of them were given a complicated list of instructions. Ye Chong's task was to memorize all the instructions, and to complete them in the shortest amount of time possible. To pass, they had to successfully enter at least 90 instructions with a difficulty rating of 3 within a minute. Entering at least 120 would be considered excellent.
The keyboard was simple to make. Ye Chong assigned the task to a normal manufacturer, and ordered 5,000 of them.
To train these 5,000 people into mech pilots, he would need 5,000 mechs.
5,000 mechs was a large number no matter where one looked at it. The materials required were astronomical, and the manufacturing process was time-consuming. Photon processor, holographic scanning system, engines … There were too many technologies involved!
The three of them were only doing this training because they had no other choice. Without mechs, these people would never be able to become mech pilots.
It was a big problem, but Ye Chong did not lose his cool.
If they had enough metal, it would not be a problem. Ye Chong had the best equipment in the world, and it was easy for him to make some automatic production equipment. However, to obtain large amounts of metal, they would have to enter Darkniss.
To enter Darkniss, they would have to be strong enough. To be strong enough, they would have to become mech pilots. To become mech pilots, the students would have to have mechs.
The problem was at an impasse.
What if they used wood to make mechs? The wood here had excellent properties, but was not suitable for making complicated machinery, such as mechs.
It seemed that he would have to make a temporary product to train these people. Ye Chong quickly came up with a compromise. To him, designing a battle machine was not a difficult problem.
Ye Chong ruled out fighter jets. These machines were difficult to change directions, and were not practical in space. The most important thing now was for them to get used to the strain of high-speed turning, learn how to use photon processor and holographic scanning system, how to lock on to the enemy, how to shoot, and how to coordinate their tactics.
The requirements for a new machine were obvious: to be able to change directions flexibly, to have photon processor and holographic scanning system, to have long range weapons, and a protective system.
Ye Chong took a deep breath of fresh air and went back to his underground base. Three days later, he came up with a complete set of blueprints.
This time, his assistant was Xi Yan. Xi Yan was surprised to see the blueprints.
"Teacher, what is this?"
It was a spherical object, about six meters in diameter. On its surface were two intersecting bands, each less than a meter wide. Sixteen holes were evenly distributed on each band.
"Training machine. Your task now is to simplify their structure. Simplify their structure and increase their stability. Do you understand? "Ye Chong asked Xi Yan. He chose Xi Yan because he was more experienced than Kristen.
"Understood." Xi Yan looked at the blueprints and nodded.
Ye Chong waved his hand and said, "Alright, off you go." With that, he left the stunned Xi Yan behind and went back to his work.
A day later, Xi Yan came to Ye Chong.
Ye Chong looked at the blueprints and nodded in satisfaction. He made some minor modifications and said, "Well done. Hmm, the structure is much simpler. How much do you need to make a machine like this? "
Xi Yan did not understand the concept of a training machine. A spherical structure like this was not suitable for flight. It was difficult to maintain stability in air currents, and was much worse than a fighter jet. Besides, it faced much greater air resistance than a fighter jet, and moved much slower than a fighter jet. The only advantage of the training machine was its ability to change directions. The two intersecting bands had 16 exhaust holes, which allowed the machine to change directions in a variety of ways.
Cost? Xi Yan paused. He thought about it and asked, "What materials do you need?"
"Huachuni wood," Ye Chong answered without hesitation.
Huachuni wood was the cheapest wood available. He answered honestly, "If it's huachuni wood, it only costs about 3,000 ao to make."
"Hmm, go and order it from the manufacturer. Five thousand of them will cost 15 million ao," Ye Chong said quickly.
"What about the engine?" Xi Yan asked.
"We'll use the LLK-1 engine. I think it costs 1,000 ao per engine," Ye Chong said.
Xi Yan was familiar with the price. "If we buy more, we can give you a discount. Five thousand of them will only cost 4 million ao. " He did not understand what his teacher was trying to do. The LLK-1 engine was an old model. It was cheap and had no other advantages.
Five thousand people were not easy to take care of. Even such a training machine had cost him twenty million ao. If he wanted to buy a fighter jet, he would not even have enough money to equip a thousand students.
There was also the photon processor, the holographic scanning system, and the protection system. Ye Chong did not want his students, who had spent so much effort on training, to lose their lives due to improper operation.
This was going to be troublesome!
Ye Chong had to complete all three on his own. It was a huge project, and Ye Chong felt that it was challenging his limits.
In the underground base, the alchemy lab was filled with petri dishes. Five thousand mechs would require five thousand bio-mechs. Fortunately, bio-photon processors were different from normal photon processors, or Ye Chong would have died from exhaustion. Even so, it was not enough for him. It was a spectacular sight to see five thousand petri dishes.
The holographic scanning system took up more of Ye Chong's time and energy. He did not have any metals he was familiar with, so he had to use local materials. Fortunately, Ye Chong had performed parameter analysis on almost all the common materials, or it would have been an impossible task for him. To save time, he only made a simplified holographic scanning system. Even so, he could only make a hundred petri dishes a day. It would take him about two months to complete it. This was the simplest holographic scanning system recorded in Kui's chip.
Ye Chong was sure that he could not build a protection system himself, so he went to Sun Sieha without hesitation. Sumen Sieha valued Ye Chong very much, and immediately called for Master Karu.
Master Karu looked at the design with glowing eyes, and bought it without hesitation. Of course, Ye Chong would split the profits this time, and Sun Sieha would provide Ye Chong with five thousand sets for free. Both Sun Sieha and Master Karu were prepared for Ye Chong's unscrupulous ways. They knew the importance of the technology, and agreed immediately.
The problem of five thousand protection systems was solved, and Ye Chong had earned himself a considerable long-term profit. Ye Chong was very satisfied with the mission.
Now, it was his turn to do the hard work. Five thousand holographic scanning systems! (To be continued, if you want to know what happened next, please log on to WWW. QIDIAN. com. Support the author, support the original!)
