”We used rubber. We quickly produced a massive amount of rubber that enveloped the entire body of the Coxcomb utilizing its cohesiveness which separated the metal surface from the sea,” explained Mu/Shang. Now everything made perfect sense. Ye Chong could not help but to be amazed at the creativity of the solution. Although it sounded rather plain as concisely Mu/Shang described, the reality must be way more thrilling than Ye Chong imagined.
”Who thought of this?”
”Shang.”
Oh it was Mu, as expected fro- wait, Shang?
The answer was beyond Ye Chong's expectation.
Ye Chong then opened up the entrance and called in the Sangs. There were several things to do. For starters, Sang Pu would lead the Coxcomb crew to the resting room. Sang Ling would be having a discussion with Qiu Man regarding the arrangement of the following tasks.
”There, Ye.”
And finally Mu/Shang's dimensional keystone had returned to the front of Ye Chong's chest.
”Ye, what are you planning next?” asked Mu.
”Hmm...” Caressed the keystone pendant round his neck, ”We'll talk about it after this,” said Ye Chong.
”Mhm,” Mu/Shang agreed.
The return of Mu/Shang was a boost to Ye Chong's forces. The facilities and apparatuses had been all transferred to safety almost immediately after that. Planet Yi Ju was a planet neither rich with resources, nor crowded with population, but it was a planet abundant with free lands however. Miles and miles of land was under the ownership of the Papatte Squad.
And an industrial area was then found not far from Terry City a few days later. It was a medium-sized area that had included production line of all weaponry and accessories, processors and laser launcher. You could even find machines producing the valve pieces for mech hydraulic stabilizer and the keel of a medium spaceship. As long as they got the resources, they could produce almost anything.
This was when Mu/Shang shone with his computational power. The running production lines were forming a complete circuit of mass production. In other words, such industrial area was already capable of mass-producing complete mechs and spaceships, as well as a few of other end-products.
The industrial area was livelier than ever the moment it was fully established. Tons of laser firing devices were first to be produced since Planet Yi Ju lacked such type of offense the most. The team had to allocate most resources on ranged weapons since most of Ye Chong's mechs were close-combat models, other than Mu/Shang. And none of these models could wield a manual firearm efficiently in the battlefield.
So they chose to produce these automatic laser firing devices. Even though such device lacked accuracy, it could achieve a 100% accuracy as long as it fired in mass with the other devices - perfect for tower defense.
Furthermore, Mu/Shang had brought a few spatial monitors which could be a big help in observing unstable area in the space, allowing Ye Chong to make the necessary move when distortion occurred.
The Sangs were ever-moving even when they were not assigned to the usual patrolling tasks. After Ye Chong's last encounter with bristleworms, he outlined a charging training course for them.
The communicative facilities had also been renewed, now under Little Rock's supervision with Zhang Yu as the assistant. The Virtual World server on Planet Yi Ju had reached an astonishingly high level of security now with both of them.
Ye Chong had been in the commander's room most of the time. According to the data he had been receiving, the unstable space zone ahead was further destabilizing at an alarming rate - that was not a good sign for everyone. The atmosphere of the commander's room was grim as most people's expression. If the spatial destabilizing rate had reached the limit way before the arrival of Sang's reinforcement, what could happen to them?
