Chapter 353 Starship Repair Work

After visiting Fremont and Elki's research results, Roy had a long discussion with the two about the technical problems that needed to be solved in subspace transportation.

First of all, the subspace channel opened by the device is not large enough, and it needs to be widened to allow large land ships to pass through. In the future, whether it is to quickly deploy a fleet of high-speed warships or to transport materials over long distances, a sufficiently spacious space channel is required.

Fremont immediately said that it was not a big problem and that he would be able to figure it out if he was given some time.

Secondly, the spells against evil spirits are not strong enough and can only be used to repel some weak evil spirits and collapsed bodies, but are not enough to fight against powerful individuals.

Roy had personally witnessed the spiritual pollution and reality collapse brought about by the evil demon collapse body of Cresson's level, which affected the entire boundless sea of flowers and the surrounding ice fields.

Therefore, for the safety of the entire Kazdel, the spells against the evil spirits must be strengthened. Roy told Elqi that no matter how many high-level materials and pure source stones were needed to build the witchcraft array, he still had some savings despite the suggestion.

"Your Highness, is it really possible?" Fremont's eyes lit up instantly. If materials and energy were not limited, he could really turn those crazy ideas in his mind into reality.

Previously, due to the limited strength of the materials, Fremont's designs had to give up the ultimate performance and pursue stability. Now that he got Roy's promise, he could finally let go and create boldly.

"Well, if you want to achieve groundbreaking results, you have to invest unimaginably huge amounts of research and development funds. I believe in your abilities and you won't let me down. Just make a list of the materials you need and send them to my desk."

Before leaving, Roy patted Fremont and Elki on the shoulders to express his support for the research projects they were leading.

Subspace transportation is an important project that can be ranked alongside the aerospace battleship and the Kazdel Scourge Defense Belt. Once completed, military deployment, cargo transportation, and personnel movement will not be restricted by time, space, or weather conditions, and can be achieved in an instant.

After leaving the experimental site in Fremont, Roy did not return to the office, but instead headed for the military restricted area outside the city.

He was going to inspect the work there. Several months had passed and he didn't know how the repair of the starship that was broken into three parts was going.

Nian boasted confidently that it would not be difficult for her to re-weld the broken keel. To thank Nian for helping to repair the starship, Roy treated her to a week of spicy hot pot.

Let’s do a surprise check now to see if Nian is slacking off.

Entering the heavily guarded military restricted area, Roy walked directly to the largest factory building. That was the factory built to cover the huge hull of the starship and to start repair work.

The patrolling guards they met on the road straightened their backs and saluted him when they saw His Highness Roy coming in person.

The Sarkaz engineer who was smoking and resting outside the factory gate had a very happy look on his face just now, blowing out smoke rings from his mouth. When he opened his eyes again, he found that His Highness was walking towards him, and hurriedly pressed the cigarette butt against the wall to extinguish it.

"Your Highness, why are you here?" The engineer greeted him respectfully with a smile on his face.

He had used the excuse of going to the restroom to the minister and sneaked out to smoke to relieve his boredom. Although it was a routine operation, he still felt guilty and afraid of being punished when being caught by His Highness.

"Come and inspect the repair work of the starship. You will introduce it to me later. Smoke less in the future. It's bad for your health." Seeing the engineer's nervousness, Roy did not pursue his behavior of smoking during work. Instead, he reminded him to take care of his health.

It's already very good that he can stay away from the workplace, hide outside the door to smoke, and not affect others.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I have been smoking for decades. I don't have the energy to work if I don't smoke. It's an old problem, haha..." The Sarkaz engineer smiled awkwardly and took the opportunity to secretly put the half-smoked cigarette hidden in his palm into his pocket.

There is still half a cigarette left. I will save it for after get off work. I can't waste it.

"Then smoke less and try to live a few more decades." Roy knew that it was almost impossible to quit a habit that had lasted for decades, so he could only persuade him to smoke less.

"Yes, you are right. I will pay attention to it next time." The Sarkaz engineer nodded repeatedly and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Okay, let's go in and take a look. After so much time has passed, the repair of the starship should have achieved certain results."

"Yes, Your Highness, please follow me. A section of the starship's broken keel has been successfully welded together, and we are preparing to weld together the remaining section..." The Sarkaz engineer quickly followed Roy's steps and introduced the current progress one by one.

"How is your work attitude?" Walking into the spacious factory building, the starship's external hull armor was removed, revealing the central keel and large and small supporting frames.

The keels of the head and middle sections have been welded together, and the remaining keel of the tail section is connected to two overhead cranes by thick steel cables, waiting to be hoisted and welded together with the first two sections.

A large number of outer decks removed from starships are placed in the factory. Engineering employees wearing protective clothing and carrying tool boxes go in and out of the steel maze to carry out grinding and welding work.

"You are talking about Miss Nian... She played an irreplaceable and important role in the keel welding work. She also gets along well with the brothers on weekdays..."

After a brief thought, the Sarkaz engineer gave a fairly pertinent answer. To be honest, a person like Nian who is enthusiastic, outgoing and friendly can easily integrate into an unfamiliar group.

Moreover, she has amazing experience and knowledge in many aspects such as metal smelting, alloy formula improvement, and large component forging, even though she looks very young.

"Well, where does she usually hang out? Take me to see her." Roy did not see Nian in the factory, so he asked the Sarkaz engineer who worked there.

"When Miss Nian is not working, she is usually in the studio next door researching some interesting gadgets. Sometimes, I am really curious about how those things move."

The Sarkaz engineer opened a side door next to the factory building and said, "Your Highness, Miss Nian's studio is just in front. Do you need me to accompany you in?"

"No need, go back to work." Roy waved to the Sarkaz engineer and knocked on the wooden door carved with Yan Country style patterns.

"What? Who's looking for me?" A vague voice came from behind the wooden door, followed by the sound of footsteps.

"Nian, it's me, open the door."

"Hey, how come you have time to come to see me?"
