Chapter 278: Chapter 236: Planetary Weapons Ready

...

A month later, at the Nuclear Fusion Technology Research Institute, He Xingzhou had just finished an academic seminar.

"Cold nuclear fusion thruster performs nuclear fusion at normal temperature conditions, which can avoid the issue of overheating for Space Air Mother Ship and giant mecha components."

He Xingzhou also upgraded nuclear fusion technology; cold nuclear fusion can occur at normal temperature and pressure, with a broader application range compared to the high pressure and high temperature of thermal nuclear fusion!

The principle of the thruster is similar to thermal nuclear fusion; both utilize the energy released from nuclear fusion and use energy conversion devices to generate power.

"It’s unbelievable, Shen Zhou’s technological advancements have progressed so much faster than ours!" exclaimed some experts attending such a meeting for the first time.

They were all experts rescued from other regions by the Noah Science Society, and after rigorous scrutiny, they now work for the Blue Star Alliance.

After barely understanding the current level of technology of the Blue Star Alliance, these people were amazed!

If they had known earlier that there was a force in the world capable of advancing technology to this extent, they wouldn’t have thought of fleeing Blue Star!

...

Space Air Mother Ship research group, tens of thousands of researchers gathering together, all secretly assembled, still unaware of what to do, only knowing it’s a confidential mission.

"What exactly are we supposed to research?" several young researchers quietly discussed.

"I have no idea, I was researching mechanical power before."

"I was researching plasma weapons."

"And you?" they asked a young researcher.

"My name is Zeng Weihao, I previously interned at the Ship Design Institute, just transferred here," the young man said shyly.

"Not bad!" everyone responded, "Being selected surely means you performed exceptionally well! Young man, being chosen at such a young age for a confidential mission, you have a bright future!"

Everyone chatted, sharing some of their circumstances.

Zeng Weihao said, "I just saw the recruitment advertisement for three million, then joined the military, and was assigned to the research institute to study."

"Not bad, why did you enlist at that time?" someone asked.

"My idol is Academician He!" Zeng Weihao said firmly, "I used to watch his videos, and vowed to learn from him. After entering university, I was preparing for graduate school, but seeing his call for us to enlist, I came!"

"Having a goal and the drive to pursue it, very nice!" everyone praised.

"I’m not much; I have a classmate named Huang Sheng. Although his studies were average, he has excellent talent in mecha control, and now he’s an elite member of the Xuanwu Army!" Zeng Weihao said.

"Huang Sheng, the one who went deep underground to 20,000 meters and discovered the Insect Nest! Incredible! Young people nowadays are much stronger than we were!"

"Yeah, the internet used to say they were a lost generation, but look, when war comes, they’re charging to the front line!"

Everyone was discussing when the AI prompt echoed in the hall: "Members, the conference is about to begin, please remain quiet."

Tens of thousands of people together quieted down.

They saw a familiar figure appear before them.

"It’s Academician He!" Zeng Weihao became excited; wasn’t this his idol, He Xingzhou?

"Hello everyone, I’m He Xingzhou, the Planet Builder." He Xingzhou smiled at the crowd, and with the familiar opening line, everyone applauded.

"Today, gathering everyone here is for one sole purpose!"

He Xingzhou said, "Around us, there are Insect Kings eyeing us, ready to attack at any moment!"

"Facing those Nuclear Giant Beasts, our ships, mecha units, armored units, air force units, are struggling to be effective!"

"We need more powerful weapons!"

"This weapon, I have demonstrated before; do any of you recall it?"

Upon hearing that, everyone became puzzled, "What weapon did Commander He demonstrate that could deal with Insect Kings?"

"Plasma Cannon?"

"Arc array?"

"Mecha?"

Everyone was pondering when Zeng Weihao shouted, "Space Air Mother Ship, is it the Space Air Mother Ship?"

He Xingzhou looked at him, smiled, and said, "Indeed, someone guessed correctly. What’s your name?"

"Zeng Weihao!" Zeng Weihao was thrilled; this was his first interaction with He Xingzhou.

"Well, you guessed right!" He Xingzhou nodded, "We are gathered here to create a new type of weapon that surpasses all current human weapons, a real national heavy weapon—the Space Air Mother Ship!"

When He Xingzhou finished speaking, tens of thousands of researchers were in an uproar!

"We are going to build the Space Air Mother Ship!"

"I never imagined I would participate in this plan; I’m so excited!"

"I watched Mr. He’s video, and when he initially mentioned building the Space Air Mother Ship, I said it was impossible. Now, I find myself involved in the project!"

"Come on, come on, I’m already prepared!"
