Lin Xian thought this must have cost Shi Deyuan a great deal, he pondered, if it was purely about manufacturing, for Lin Xian, it would be an epic engineering project. He could already imagine how troubleso it would be; he hadn’t yet built such a large chanical structure, especially given that the Infinity had 14 carriages, definitely not sothing that could be completed in a couple of days.
So he planned to ask him later how he manufactured the alterations, and if possible, see if he could scan the blueprints.
Moreover, the Joker Team also had small nuclear power devices to power the team’s electric vehicles. In addition, many teams had auxiliary solar energy storage systems; but at tis like these, only nuclear power could be reassuring, providing heating devices to all the teams at the edge of the stormy Trakama Ice Valley.
Over on Shi Deyuan’s side, he led Lin Xian and KIKI towards several large tent camps under the cha, while Ning Jing took Ah Bai and Xiao Qing back to their Dragon Mountain No.1 vehicle.
"By the way, there’s sothing I’m very curious about."
Lin Xian walked and said: "Isn’t the Emperor Plan an organization of the Phoenix Society too? Why do they need to seek help from Xilan City?"
Lin Xian had been pondering this question just now. Why did it seem like the Phoenix Society’s operations here were completely unknown to Xilan City over there?
Shi Deyuan waved his hand: "I asked already, the actions of the Emperor Plan are top secret."
"Kept secret even from their own people?"
"No." Shi Deyuan looked at Lin Xian, speaking aningfully: "I estimate they’ve encountered so situation, and the current scenario must be beyond the plan, leading to a breakdown with other support points of the Phoenix Society. That’s why they’re using full-spectrum distress signals. We have seven teams here, all ca to assist."
"So many people dead and injured, looks like they encountered an S-Class Abnormal Body, like that Black Insect." KIKI said at this mont.
"That Black Insect is not an S-Class Abnormal Body though." Shi Deyuan said nonchalantly: "At least according to the Phoenix Society’s evaluation, this thing doesn’t reach S-Class."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xian narrowed his eyes: "So the S-Class Abnormal Body ntioned on the radio from Palma Prairie isn’t this thing."
"Precisely..."
In the camp under the wind and snow, a team of interstellar army soldiers in military Power Armor busily transported arms towards the front. Lin Xian and KIKI glanced over and noticed the uniforms of these people were rather special; only about 20 people left upon looking around, all holding heavy weapons, equipped with Active Exoskeleton Assistance Systems and high-end cold-resistant gear, seemingly having gone through several consecutive nights of battles. The soldiers were covered in weariness and battle scars...
As they got closer to the massive cha, Lin Xian and KIKI felt the wind and snow around them weaken significantly, and could feel the residual warmth from the nuclear power turbine engine that had just started, standing in front of this gigantuan thing, feeling like ants, lifted their heads to sense a mountainous pressure.
Seeing Lin Xian and KIKI’s shocked faces at the sight of the giant cha, Shi Deyuan also stopped, sighed and said:
"Scary, isn’t it? Heh, when I first saw it, it startled too. Humans can build such things, no doubt about it, if more could be built, it could wrestle with those monsters in the dark, and the few remaining survivors could gain so confidence."
KIKI bluntly said: "But doesn’t the current situation indicate that this plan has already failed?"
The super weapon created with the might of the Phoenix Society was defeated in its first test; this news seed only to deepen despair.
Lin Xian replied: "I think the purpose of the Phoenix Society building this kind of weapon is surely to confront S-Class Abnormal Bodies, or to enter Star Abyss for reconnaissance. If this is the result, does it an it didn’t et expectations?"
"I don’t know what this thing has been through either..." Shi Deyuan took a deep breath and said: "But being able to directly take out such a large Black Insect, its power is certainly not simple."
Lin Xian nodded: "Judging from the battle scars on this cha, it certainly fought other monsters too..."
"What’s the na of this cha?" KIKI asked.
"They ntioned, it’s called..."
Shi Deyuan looked up at the steel behemoth, saying solemnly:
"Emperor Plan - No.1 Machine."
