Xinqiluo Business Alliance

"Hello sir, this mech has undergone the most professional and rigorous testing from design to production to final test flight. I think our company's Star Pilot Fan Lunding, can answer your questions on this point."
The product manager's impeccable words earned nods of agreement from the others.
This is the first mech jointly produced by Dawn Power Laboratory and Arabela Weapons Company. With such strong R&D capabilities, these problems that Mu Fan mentioned should not have occurred.
The voice in Mu Fan's ear, however, spoke with an admiring tone, "Mu Fan, your talent in mecha is dozens of times greater than your shooting talent!"
Mu Fan's face almost fell down. Is that how you praise someone?
"I just checked their database. The engine data for this mecha is indeed excellent, but the person in charge of designing this mecha must have lost their mind. A lightweight mecha designed for mobility doesn't utilize that mobility to use long-range shooting weapons. Instead, they insist on showing off by using an energy weapon, Light Beam Sword. The energy consumption of the engine after the Michael Particle are activated is definitely not low. I'm also curious who gave this slender mecha the courage to squander so little energy."
Hearing Hei's words, Mu Fan felt instantly at ease. In the field of mecha, Hei's knowledge was as vast as a galaxy.
The boy stood there, still watching the holographic projection with an air of nonchalance, while the people around him waited patiently for Alabella's answer.
They wanted the mech, worth 22 million Star Coin, to be flawless, not to have even the slightest glaring flaw—that was unacceptable to them!
A moment later, a burly man dressed in a black pilot's combat uniform walked over.
The initials on the combat uniform indicate that the person is an employee of Arabela Weapons Company.
His muscles bulged out of his combat uniform, and his buzz cut and stubble gave him a weathered look. He exuded an unusual aura as soon as he appeared.
"I am Fan Lunding, the chief pilot of Arabela Weapons Company. Customers who want to inquire about the details of this machine can ask me. The pilot in that test flight video is also me."
Upon hearing Fan Lunding's name, someone scratched their head in thought, then suddenly slapped their thigh and shouted, "Fan Lunding!? Aren't you the captain of the Star Wolf Team, the runner-up in the Fourth Administrative Star District Mech Team Tournament for two consecutive years??"
The burly pilot nodded upon hearing this and said with a smile, "That was two years ago. Later, because everyone had their own development plans, the Star Wolf Team disbanded. I didn't expect that anyone would still remember it now."
Upon hearing his confirmation, the young people immediately became excited and rushed forward to take a group photo.
Fan Lunding smiled and raised his hands to press down, "Everyone, calm down first. There will be a group photo later. Let me take care of your questions first."
"Which guest raised those questions?"
Fan Lunding looked at the product manager next to him, who pointed to Mu Fan, who was dressed in understated luxury but exuded an extraordinary Mu Fan.
"Hello sir, the problem you mentioned should exist in principle, but because this mech uses the Federation's exclusive custom-made Turbo Ammonia Core Engine, this engine can recover nearly 27% of the lost energy while it is working. This can effectively extend the energy consumption period for the Wind Speed Gladiator's lightweight mech. As for why Light Beam Sword is used, it is because it involves Professor Wang Wenyi's patented technology from the Dawn Power Laboratory."
"Let me explain briefly, since I'm the only one who has personally piloted this mech. This Light Beam Sword uses high-energy Michael Particle instead of traditional Mega particles. It uses an electromagnetic field to control the force field to form a blade-shaped restraint part, and then injects high-heat Michael Particle plasma into this shell to produce an extremely destructive blade."
"Here comes the key to my answer: because the Michael Particle are stored inside the hilt of the Light Beam Sword, when the hilt is inserted back into the socket, the Michael Particle can be replenished in the mech's ammonia furnace. Therefore, it can be activated without a continuous supply of furnace energy from the mech."
After saying that, Fan Lunding spread his hands and smiled at Mu Fan.
They had already prepared for this problem. The real issue was the metallurgical formula of the mech. The Wind Speed Gladiator had a complete design for the entire mech around the Light Beam Sword, but due to limitations in metal materials, their designers discovered that the mech's sword hilt and hand shell were prone to premature metal fatigue under the cyclic stress caused by high-energy Michael Particle impacts.
Therefore, the normal maintenance period for this mech, especially for its hands, is one-third shorter than that of other mechs.
However, this was something they did not announce at the exhibition.
Snap!
Slap! Slap!
A round of applause erupted as Fan Lunding's brilliant and detailed explanation drew the attention of more and more onlookers, who then generously offered their applause.
"You're dressed well, but your knowledge base is still far too lacking. It's better to have a sense of awe towards unfamiliar areas." A strange voice came from behind. The pronunciation was clear and articulate, but it lacked the smoothness of the interstellar common language spoken by the Federation people, so it always felt a bit odd.
Mu Fan face remained calm and composed, and the onlookers around him turned around at the same time.
Dressed identically, with prominent foreheads and purple eyes, the two figures, one tall and one short, stood behind him.
The tall man was the one who spoke.
"Sandy Conan".
Vincent Conan
"We are the accompanying managers of the Peier Merchant Guild. Your company's mech boasts a near-perfect aerodynamic design and a top-of-the-line sixth-generation engine, which are extremely rare even in Xinqiluo. We intend to purchase two to take back to the Merchant Alliance. We wonder if your company would be willing to sell them to us?"
The tall Vincent Conan smiled as he looked at the Arabela Weapons Company.
Alabella's product manager, on the other hand, was beaming with excitement. The Peier Merchant Guild knew that this was a 3A-level chamber of commerce from the Xinqiluo Business Alliance.
It's important to understand that the Xinqiluo Business Alliance possesses economic strength far exceeding that of the Federation, and may even surpass the combined fiscal revenue of the Star River Federation and the Gador Empire!
Its area is only about a quarter of that of the Federation.
It was an honor for Xinqiluo to have goods from the Federation recognized by him.
"Equality and integrity, public-spirited business practices, mutual benefit and shared prosperity!"
Two hundred and seventy years ago, ten S-class super-large merchant guilds from the Federation, Gador, and Beyond Domain Star River suddenly issued a joint guild announcement, and then a free commercial alliance called "Xinqiluo" officially appeared in the interstellar space.
No one could have imagined that, after just a century of development, this independent and impartial commercial trading venue would begin to have a geometrically expanding effect throughout the universe.
Later, countless independent forces and principalities began to migrate to other planets, and the emergence of a large number of artificial planets and Artificial Star Ring caused this nascent commercial alliance to develop explosively.
Neutral!
The Xinqiluo Business Alliance has only one purpose: to be home to all kinds of races from across the universe, and to be the most prosperous trading hub in the cosmos.
Countless high-ranking officials in the Federation and Empire have intricate connections with Xinqiluo, which is why this business alliance has miraculously survived and grown into a behemoth in the business world today!
