Missiles

Inside the observatory.

Gu Junxiu unfolded a piece of paper. "This is a translation of the message sent from over there. Please take a look, Ancestor."

These fonts...

They are all characters from the Central Plains.

Gu Junxiu couldn't understand it; he was only responsible for translating and recording it.

While displaying this information, he added, "Ancestor, I have also found out about the specific frequency of the signal you asked me to search for. Now, we may be able to communicate in real time."

Real-time communication?

There have been some surprises Gu Jinlai.

The progress is so fast.

But thinking about it, it makes sense.

After all, everyone uses the same communication code, the same translation method, and even the same analysis software for image synthesis, so this kind of progress is reasonable.

I've looked at the translated text from ancient times to the present.

"Hello, Qianxing people. Will our data be helpful in repairing your spaceship? If you have any questions about the data, or if you encounter any problems during the data import process, you can send us the new data."

"To ensure no errors occur during this process, please send complete data including the repair process."

Looking at these two passages, I find them somewhat troublesome, Gu Jinlai.

Complete data on the repair process?

He didn't have a spaceship to repair it, so naturally there was no data to speak of.

This is a difficult question to answer.

"I'll contact them next."

Gu Jinlai said something and came to the control panel.

After Gu Junxiu left, he couldn't help but ponder how to respond.

The aliens' high-class image must be maintained.

Only...

His next plan is to inquire about a technology that can be applied immediately and resolve the current crisis.

This technology must meet the principles of easy production and high cost-effectiveness.

For highly advanced technologies, such as laser cannons and ion cannons, relying entirely on shared intelligence requires a significant investment of time.

Thinking of this, he paused for a moment. "Laser cannons won't work. The kind of damage caused by burning is negligible to Spirit Transformation cultivators. This is because almost all Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators wear high-grade or even top-grade armor, which has a defensive power equivalent to several hundred kilograms of super-heavy steel armor."

Extraordinary materials exist in this world, whose properties are equivalent to those of special alloys.

Spirit Artifact are often forged from these extraordinary materials.

Gu Jinlai, countless ideas have been explored, yet no good solution has ever been found.

They were troubled by what reason to make a request to that side, and helpless against the Spirit Transformation cultivator's display of strength.

"Spirit Transformation..."

Gu Jinlai closed his eyes, he realized that the power displayed by the two Nascent Spirit Transformation of the Cold Moon Demon Sect in the battle of Sunset City had made him lose his composure.

For a moment, he forcibly cleared his mind of distractions and calmed himself down.

"If you can't come up with a solution, you might as well learn from the ideas of those who came before you."

Throughout Gu Jinlai, this thought has gradually brought clarity to my mind.

All fear stems from insufficient firepower.

"Therefore, rockets traveling at subsonic speeds can be intercepted, but the flying sword's interception range is only ten miles. Within these ten miles, it can intercept one or two, ten or twenty, but not a hundred or two hundred. If it uses a trigger-type warhead, even if the flying sword's materials are extraordinary and sturdy, it will still be damaged by the repeated destruction of rockets. At that time..."

It collapsed on its own without being attacked.

Gu Jinlai, people have opened their eyes.

His eyes were clear and bright.

Not only rockets, but also close-in weapon systems.

The reason why the performance of the two Nascent Spirit Transformation in the Battle of Sunset City put him under great pressure was because there were too few close-range artillery pieces.

If he had ten, twenty, or thirty close-in weapon systems, let alone two Nascent Spirit Transformation, what would he have to fear even if the entire Spirit Transformation Cold Moon Demon Sect came out in full force!

"In the past year or so, it's too early for the military workshop to produce close-in weapon systems, but producing rocket launchers... or even, as a second choice, producing cannons, is no problem. As for some flaws, I can have those Celestial Masters who have served me make up for them."

Killing a Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivator with a cannon is obviously a pipe dream.

But what if dozens or hundreds of cannons were conducting a barrage of fire from tens of kilometers away...

Destroying a Nascent Spirit Transformation is by no means a pipe dream.

When poor, use tactical infiltration; when rich, use firepower coverage.

Of course, the true strength of Spirit Transformation cultivators lies in their unpredictable assassinations.

However, regarding assassinations...

With close-in weapon systems (CIWS), that's sufficient.

Furthermore...

He himself is also constantly growing stronger, and one day he will be powerful enough to withstand the flying swords head-on.

"So, targeting the characteristics of Spirit Transformation cultivators, we'll start with close-in weapon systems for defense, then cannons to rely on numerical superiority for a counterattack, and then... supersonic homing missiles to target the flying swords..."

This thought paused for a moment, Gu Jinlai.

Supersonic tracking missiles can not only target flying swords, but also be used to deter Primordial Spirit True Lord a high-ranking official in the Yuan Shen sect).

And then...

It is an electromagnetic railgun.

The electromagnetic cannon's straight-line attack trajectory is easy to dodge, but if the speed is fast enough, even a powerful Spirit Transformation cultivator might not be able to react in time.

Finally, there are laser weapons with power powerful enough to pierce through top-grade armor.

Once the objective was clear, Gu Jinlai already knew what technology they needed from the other side.

"Cannons, I have the relevant data in my mind, I just need to use the Clear Light search to find it. Therefore, the key is the air-to-air tracking missile technology... On Blue Star, the most advanced tracking missile... is the Sky Arrow? Its maximum speed can reach six times the speed of sound?"

Although missiles are far less maneuverable than flying swords, they have a speed advantage of twice as much...

They can still put up a fight.

"The difficulty with hypersonic missiles lies in materials and fuel, and materials..."

Gu Jinlai thought of the material called "Black Gold" that his master Zong Heng, who had recently served him, had sent him not long ago.

This material...

It has a melting point of over 5,000 degrees Celsius.

It's more than enough to make aerospace engines, right?

The remaining fuel...

Like gunpowder, it is a shared spiritual realization.

"Wait, speaking of the black gold that Zong Heng presented..."

It's a sight to behold, Gu Jinlai.

Finally, something can fill in the gaps in his image as an alien.

Doesn't Blue Star need the data?

Easy.

Gu Jinlai, I have been recalling the various properties of black gold in my mind, and then reflecting on my own process of spiritual communion.

He quickly took out a page and wrote down the formula for the black gold structure derived by the Spirit of the Common Spirit in a way that the Blue Star people could understand.

After finishing writing, he went to the console and began replying.

"Your data... is completely inadequate, especially the materials. However, I have already improved the materials section for you. Here is the data, please accept it."

After sending the first message, Gu Jinlai immediately began editing the second. "In addition, the spaceship's engine is severely damaged, and this happens to be an area where I have no knowledge. I need more help from you... I feel that the rocket engine used on one of your Blue Star missiles looks familiar to me. Please prepare its detailed information for me. Perhaps it can help me find a way to repair the spaceship's engine by finding common ground while respecting differences."

The two messages were sent out quickly.

On the other side.

Since sending the information about the "Mysterious Maiden Fighter" to Gu Jinlai, Xie Yusheng has rekindled his enthusiasm for his own game, "Nantianmen Chronicles".

After all, he and his colleagues had poured a lot of effort into this game. Although releasing it in the current climate of popular fantasy games would definitely result in huge losses, they couldn't bear to see this promising opportunity die before it even began.

Therefore, he reassembled his planning team and used the remaining time to refine the details of the game step by step.

As for Gu Jinlai...

Instead, he completely forgot about it.

He might not have thought to send the message if he hadn't encountered some difficulties with the data.

After sending the message, he didn't have high hopes.

The two had lost contact for several months, and the other party had probably seen through his little tricks. Therefore, he continued to go to work while slacking off and playing games.

"Beep beep beep!"

Suddenly, a signal on that familiar frequency came through.

This scene surprised Xie Yusheng slightly.

"A response?"

He moved his chair to the control panel and quickly performed text-to-image translation and synthesis on the signal.

Not long after, a document that seemed to be...

The data presented to him was presented in a very clear and organized manner.

"It's perfected? Really?"

Xie Yusheng looked at the data and his expression was somewhat taken aback.

He instinctively thought that the other party had wasted a lot of resources on his game data, and that sending this material data now was a form of revenge.

But...

"It seems to make sense."

He wondered if he should send it to the materials science professor at the university they had consulted when they were working on "The Battle of Nantianmen".

After a moment, he dismissed the idea.

Professor Du Dongyuan helped them back then because of a favor from his third grandfather; it's best not to bother him with such a small matter.

"Compared to the previous data, this data seems much more substantial. But that makes sense; if the other party wants me to spend time on this material, the data they present must be genuine."

Xie Yusheng looked at it for a moment, then immediately started operating. "Never mind all that, let's input it into the game first. Many weapons in the game can use this black gold, at least it looks high-end."

After a series of actions, he received his second message, the first from Gu Jinlai.

"Sky Arrow missile?"

Xie Yusheng was somewhat surprised. "Again? You've already seen through my tricks, why do you still want me to help him transfer data?"

He glanced at the request document, then at the black gold data sent by the "Qianxingren"...

A slight hesitation arose in my heart.

Could it be...?

After a while, he shook his head again.

I think this possibility simply doesn't exist.

"I suspect they're playing psychological warfare."

Xie Yusheng glanced at the requirements and quickly realized something, pulling up his chat history with a game planner.

Before long, data on a brand-new hypersonic missile appeared before his eyes.

"You're the one, the Sky Sword missile. We copied the data from the airshow, enhanced it, added inscriptions... no, I mean perfected it, and added a more advanced power layout to create a future missile. It's only one character different from Sky Arrow... even the pronunciation is the same. I think it can meet your needs."

With a satisfied smile, Xie Yusheng clicked send.
