Chapter 370: Communication airship
Southern Summer Country, Southern State City, Miracle Commerce.
There were three thousand barbarian berserkers standing in neat rows.
The Divine Wind Marquis and the Golden Arrow Marquis, these two marquis were standing in front, respectively on the left and right. A beautiful fiery red haired girl was standing high up on a stage.
"Do you want to become rich!"
"Yes!"
"Do you want to become stronger?"
"Yes!"
"Do you want great wealth and influence!"
"Yes!"
Nangong Yun was using the speaker to shout to the troops and the reply of these barbarian soldiers shook the world. Their two meter tall bodies were wearing heavy armour and they were holding heavy weapons forged out of profound iron. Each one had eyes filled fiery fighting spirit!
This was the first heavy armour berserker troop Miracle Commerce had spent quite a bit on building!
Miracle Commerce did not have any generals, so they invited the Golden Arrow Marquis and the Divine Wind Marquis to help train them. The two of them were old generals and the Golden Arrow Marquis was exceptionally famous for training soldiers. Although half a month was not long, for this kind of special unit, there was no need to teach them martial arts, refine their bodies, or teach them tactics. They only needed to hammer in the basic soldier"s instinct to follow orders.
The three thousand barbarians soldiers had undergone brainwashing and fundamental training and now they regarded themselves as part of Miracle Commerce.
The barbarians were originally a low status race, when did they have a chance to make something of themselves? Each berserker was the pride of their tribe and families, because it was them that brought honour and riches to their tribe and families. These barbarians recognized their statuses for the first time.
Now they all hoped to head to the battlefield to kill enemies and earn merit for themselves, their families, and their tribe to gain more honour and riches!
How strong were these three thousand quickly trained barbarian soldiers?
The Golden Arrow Marquis and the Divine Wind Marquis could not describe it at all!
Under the situation where they weren"t equipped with Miracle Commerce"s advanced weapons, once these barbarians went berserk, they would become the Southern Summer Country"s strongest army. They also had the same amount as the Earth Dragon Army!
How terrifying was their battle strength?
If they were equipped with Source Energy Weapons, the might of this army would be unthinkable!
The two marquises had travelled the battlefield for many years. Even if this army was placed in a warring kingdom, it would be the elite of elites. They would require large amounts of resources and time to train this kind of army!
Miracle Commerce had trained one in less than a month.
Currently in the barbarian barracks, there were over ten thousand barbarians training to be berserkers!
If the Southern Summer Country had this kind of army in the past, how could they fear being invaded by the War Hounds Country!
Nangong Yun was very satisfied with the training of the berserker army. Although these barbarians were not qualified as elite warriors, at least they can be trained in an orderly manner. It was enough just for them to have basic training. Once the berserker went berserk, their battle strength would increase by several folds and they would feel no pain or fear. This was an army whose morale would never collapse!
With the materials sent in the s.p.a.ce Warehouse, it was estimated the Miracle Commerce could make one hundred Source Energy Cannons or five hundred portable cannons, or a thousand Storm Rifles.
The amount of materials they took from the royal palace treasury was only enough to make four Source Energy Cannons and the remaining materials were used to make the Storm Rifle.
Chu Tian had entered the Forest of Chaos for not long and he had several dozen times that harvest!
If they used it all to make weapons, Miracle Commerce could take a qualitative leap!
Nangong Yun excitedly felt that it was about time. Her growth these days was not slow and how she was in the 8th Awakened Soul Layer. She did not feel good being suppressed in Southern State, so she wanted to go play in the Forest of Chaos!
Boss was able to send all these resources back, that means he must be doing well!
That was certain. How could the locals in the Forest of Chaos possible stump him? She really didn"t know when everyone would be able to shift over to the Forest of Chaos.
"Young miss Nangong!" A griffin came forward to report, "Madame Cloud Dream Marquis asks for you to come to the airship factory."
Airship factory?
What would she do there!
Nangong Yun did not ask anything else and immediately went to the large factory. This was the place in Southern State where airships were made. The superiority of being unique and the convenience of the airships were very important to a company, therefore they had been constantly producing them and refining the technology. The current airships were much better than Chu Tian"s self made airship whether it was weight, speed, or service life.
When Nangong Yun arrived, she saw Feng Caidie, Yun Yao, and the others gathered. Everyone had a look of confusion on their face, not knowing why Meng Qingwu called them here.
"I asked you all here to see something." Meng Qingwu kept them guessing as she revealed a mysterious smile, "First come with me!"
Meng Qingwu led the few of them into a secret part of the factory where three very strange airships instantly appeared in front of them. They were double the size of normal airships and the structure was very compact. The balloon was made from high level demon beast pelt and the surface was covered in complex source energy arrays which increased air resistance and speed, and could resist fire and ice, or even lightning strikes.
The cabin was no longer hanging off and was connected to the balloon. The cabin seemed like it was made of a solid and light crystal and was divided into several sealed internal structures. Even if one was floating ten thousand meters in the sky, they would not feel cold or the slightest breeze at all.
The airships were used for short and mid ranged transports, so they chased after higher weight limit and capacity. This airship"s cabin was finely designed and the s.p.a.ce was reduced instead, not like a transport airship at all.
Feng Caidie"s beautiful eyes lit up, "Such a good airship, did big sister specially make this?"
"This is not just a finely made airship." Meng Qingwu made a sign with her hand and several workers on the side opened the door, "Come, let"s take a look!"
The several women entered the cabin.
This place was simple and clean. There were two rooms, one storage room, and one bathroom. It seemed like one could live in sky while flying this airship.
Did Meng Qingwu want to make a flying house?
This did not conform to Meng Qingwu"s personality. Everyone knew that the vice chairman was a practical person and would never spend time chasing unpractical things or flights of fancy.
"Yi!" Yun Yao opened a room, "Isn"t this a beast stable?"
This was a room like a long corridor with several beast troughs, as well as a s.p.a.ce designated for feeding. There was a door that opened on the other side. This should be for griffins to live in. The griffins would normally live here and when they were needed, they could directly leave through the door once being mounted and leave the airship.
These rooms took up most of the interior s.p.a.ce of the cabin, but no one could understand it. What was special about this airship? Meng Qingwu decided not to keep them in suspense as she opened the tight room in the center and the girls all looked shocked.
It was empty inside except for three towers.
One was the Magnetic Sound Tower, one was the Magnetic Image Tower, and the final one was the ultra wave transmission tower!
The girls that were stunned suddenly realized something as they were filled with awe towards Meng Qingwu!
"You should understand now." Meng Qingwu revealed a faint smile. She was always an elegant beauty, never having a look of pride as she introduced it like an ordinary tool, "The airship"s structure is simple and easy to produce, as well as being cheap to make. It has many uses, not just for transportation. I always wanted to make one of these back in Central State, so I studied many mechanical technique and power structure books, as well as researching air const.i.tution and etc. There is a still area around thirty thousand meters over the continent where there is little breathable air, so demon beasts cannot live that high. I can definitely use this airship to create a moving airborne communication station!"
It had to be said.
Meng Qingwu"s thoughts were too incredible!
Miracle Commerce"s communication system still had limitations, only the several main cities in the Southern Summer Country had coverage. There was around 80% of the land that didn"t have coverage and this was mainly because it was too troublesome to set it up.
Popularizing the mirror in the Southern Summer Country was already this troublesome, it would be impossible in the Forest of Chaos.
But if they used this special airship, the situation would be different. Not only would this save them a lot of effort, it would also allow Miracle Commerce to distribute their signal to even more places. Plus with high mobility, it was much easier to maintain and protect!
They could even make an air strike force.
Being in the air several tens of thousands of meters above, if they calculated the air current and the enemy"s position, they could drop large amounts of bombs from high above. That terrifying attack could rain down on the enemy"s position!
"Big sister is too smart!" Nangong Yun said with heartfelt praise, "Can these three airships be used already?"
"Of course!" Meng Qingwu said in a confident voice, "I have prepared three airships to be anch.o.r.ed in the s.p.a.ce thirty-forty thousand meters above the edge of the Forest of Chaos, allowing Chu Tian to receive full coverage. It"ll be much easier to exchange information like this. Each airship will have fifteen griffin knights stationed in them. I"ll leave this job to little sister Caidie and little sister Yun Yao."
"Alright!"
The two girls immediately agreed.
It was good to make more of these airships and it would be best to have several hundred of them, then they could provide coverage wherever they wanted. Miracle Commerce"s influence could spread to every corner of the Forest of Chaos!
"What about me?"
"I can"t forget you." Meng Qingwu said to Nangong Yun, "I received a letter from Chu Tian in the s.p.a.ce Warehouse. He has already obtained a foothold in the Forest of Chaos, but he has met a bit of trouble and needs the berserker army to come over. You will lead our army to group up with Chu Tian. As for the company"s Source Energy Weapons, once you group with them, I will send them to you through the s.p.a.ce Warehouse."
Meng Qingwu planned out everything like a female strategist.
"What, is boss having trouble?" Nangong Yun was filled with fighting spirit, "I just wanted to try out the might of the berserker army!"
"There shouldn"t be anything around the edge of the forest that should threaten the berserker army, but you can"t be too negligent." Meng Qingwu had to remind Nangong Yun, after all, this fellow"s personality was well known, "We need to remain low key, we can"t attract the attention of the large influence right now."
The next day, they set off.
The three airships slowly lifted off and smoothly arrived several tens of thousands of meters in the air. The air here was relatively thin, but it was very stable. All the weather changes happened down below. It was very s.p.a.cious down below and even if they looked down below, they could not see a trace of demon beast in the forest.
The three airships gradually proceeded towards the Forest of Chaos, preparing to open the communication lines between Miracle Commerce and Oldman Small Town. In a few days from now, the Oldman Small Town would be able to use the radio and the other products.
Nangong Yun led three thousand berserker warriors set out into the forest from Southern State, beginning their long trek.
