"Hopefully this Raiu will be more effective!"
Standing in a valley near the coast, Wang Hao looked up at the thick thunderclouds in the sky and couldn't help but pray.
Next, he's going to forge a colossal machine here, which will require a massive amount of lightning power.
Since he can't build a nuclear power plant, the only way for him to obtain such a large amount of lightning power is to rely on the power of nature.
So I deliberately chose a Raiu day; the thick, dark clouds covered an area of over a thousand miles and were expected to last for quite some time.
He has meticulously transformed this valley into a massive shipyard.
Unlike modern shipyards on Earth, his shipyard was very rudimentary. Apart from the polished valley, there was only a large pile of Red Copper ingots in the very center of the valley.
Looking down from the sky, you can see that the entire valley has been sculpted into a ship's hull, and it is enormous, with the widest part being over a hundred feet wide and the total length reaching a terrifying thousand feet.
That's right, he intends to use the power of lightning here to melt the huge pile of forged Red Copper ingots, and then mold the ship's hull in this enormous valley mold.
It sounds incredible, but with the Seven Po Magnetic Field plus the Great Magnetic Field of Heaven and Earth, he is capable of doing this.
Third-Tier Red Copper also has extremely strong magnetism, making it easier to control.
Standing atop the massive pile of copper ingots, Wang Hao raised his hand to the sky, activating the Seven Po Magnetic Field. The violent lightning that had been brewing in the thunderclouds for a long time surged down in an instant, illuminating the surrounding area for hundreds of miles as bright as day.
Countless blazing white lightning bolts poured down, drawn by Wang Hao, and blasted towards the large pile of Red Copper ingots. They were then bound inside the ingots by Wang Hao's Seven Po Magnetic Field combined with the Great Magnetic Field of Heaven and Earth.
As it continued to bombard the Red Copper ingot, the amount of lightning power accumulating within it increased.
However, the strength of the Red Copper was somewhat beyond Wang Hao's expectations. Even on the second day, the Red Copper was only slightly reddish and far from melting. It was not until the third day, when the thunderclouds began to dissipate, that it finally melted.
Without daring to delay, Wang Hao used the magnetic field to control the molten Red Copper liquid to flow towards the surrounding valley walls, where it quickly cooled upon contact with the cold walls.
In this way, it didn't take long for a huge ship, a thousand feet long and over a hundred feet wide, to take initial shape.
After finishing all that, Wang Hao collapsed onto the Red Copper deck, his face pale. He was utterly exhausted.
"Master, it really happened! You actually did it!"
The first man to jump onto the boat Zhu Yuanwai excited as a two-hundred-pound child, touching and tapping here and there, displaying a lovesick look, as if he wanted to lick it with his tongue.
Zhou Xueyi and the others also jumped up, which was equally unbelievable.
They had never seen, heard of, or even dared to imagine, such a massive ship.
Yet, this miraculous creation was actually sculpted by that man himself.
And they even witnessed the entire shaping process; it was simply divine power!
"Stop being so sweet! Hurry up and move everything up for the high-end renovation. Remember to go for the most luxurious possible renovation, and the hull finishing needs to be done as soon as possible too."
Wang Hao glared at Zhu Yuanwai's cheap disciple with annoyance and urged him to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible to begin the First Tier of the plan, as he had been here for too long.
He only created the hull of this giant ship, which is like a rough draft. It still needs further finishing before it can be considered truly complete.
However, he doesn't need to worry about that; someone else will handle it.
During this period, Xiaoqing and her team have cultivated a lot of talent, especially in the field of craftsmen.
For this elaborate renovation of the giant ship, he had Xiaoqing bring in 100,000 craftsmen, all to complete the ship as quickly as possible.
Because of prior preparation, the massive ship was completed in just half a month.
If any Earthling were here, they would immediately recognize this giant ship as the Titanic, though it is many times larger than the Titanic.
The Titanic was only a little over 200 meters long and 20 meters wide, but this giant ship that Wang Hao created is over a thousand feet long and over a hundred feet wide, which translates to over 2,500 meters long and over 250 meters wide, making it much larger than the Titanic.
Of course, he didn't completely Titanic; after all, he didn't have the diagrams of its camera structure, it just looked very similar.
Since it is not powered by coal and steam, it does not have those large chimneys; instead, it has been transformed into four giant high-rise buildings.
Including these four giant skyscrapers, the ship's height is over a hundred feet, making it an absolute behemoth.
At the same time, in order to pay homage to the original, he also named the giant ship Titanic, which can be seen as a way of remembering the past.
"Take care of yourself!"
As they parted, Zhou Xueyi and others came over to say goodbye to Wang Hao.
Because they all knew that Wang Hao would be going to the Central Plains for a year, and even if he hadn't said so, they could guess the dangers of the trip.
Despite their deep worry and reluctance, they knew this man's temperament; once he made up his mind, no one could dissuade him.
So in the end, all I can say is take care!
Wang Hao didn't say much. He went to the top floor of the tallest tower on the ship, which was the control room, or you could say the engine room, of the entire giant ship.
With a thought, a massive Seven Po Magnetic Field surged forth, connecting with the Great Magnetic Field of Heaven and Earth. Then, with the help of the Great Magnetic Field of Heaven and Earth, the giant ship was magnetically suspended, and finally crashed into the water with a bang.
Driven by magnetic force, the giant propeller behind them began to spin rapidly, speeding towards the Central Plains.
That's right, Wang Hao is the power source of this giant ship.
Beneath this giant ship, he specially built a giant motor that could be controlled by its own magnetic field or directly draw upon the power of lightning from heaven and earth as its power source.
Wang Hao even specially crafted a Metal Essence longsword and sealed it inside the ship's cabin to collect and accumulate lightning power for use as a battery.
The Fourth Tier Metal Essence, formed by the combination of five elements, has extraordinary effects, one of which is its ability to store energy, with a storage capacity far exceeding imagination. If it is fully charged at once, it is enough to support the ship to sail at full speed for three days and three nights, circling the entire earth.
Of course, this lightning power can only power another large creature once.
Despite having many other methods available, the electromagnetic railgun remains the most powerful, most promising, and least costly weapon to date.
Since such a knock-off technology existed, Wang Hao naturally wouldn't leave the giant ship unarmed.
The ship is equipped with hundreds of medium-sized electromagnetic guns on both sides of the hull, and a large electromagnetic gun, over a hundred feet long, is mounted on each of the fore and aft decks. Inside the hull, there is an even more massive electromagnetic gun, over a thousand feet long.
Based on the size of this electromagnetic railgun, a single shot could probably blast the main peak of Mount Tai to pieces.
"Sigh! If only I had studied science back then!"
Sitting on the captain's throne, Wang Hao used the magnetic field to control the propeller to spin rapidly, propelling the ship forward quickly, while looking out at the vast sea through the floor-to-ceiling windows, feeling a sense of awe.
Although electromagnetic guns sound very sophisticated, their principle is actually very simple. He can build them without any external aids. Now, with the help of the guns on the ship, they will be easier to control, and the consumption of Innate Divine Sense will be less.
However, this thing is still quite different from a laser cannon; at least the visual effect is much worse.
Unfortunately, laser cannons are highly technologically advanced. While he wasn't a terrible student in school, he wasn't exactly a top student either. Plus, he graduated with a humanities degree, so developing a low-tech electromagnetic cannon was already his limit.
As for laser cannons, forget about it; at least, it's impossible in this world.
Of course, Wang Hao only sighed a little; even if the manufacturing process of the laser cannon were placed in front of him now, he wouldn't bother to touch it.
After all, this giant ship was meant to be a show-off, to let the major powers of the Central Plains confirm that he had indeed gone to that fictitious overseas martial arts world, and this ship was the most powerful proof.
After all, the Central Plains region is not capable of creating such a miraculous creation, and even in modern times on Earth, it would be very difficult to tinker with something this big.
This will undoubtedly cause a huge shock, allowing his plan to proceed smoothly.
"It seems those forces in the Central Plains have sent out quite a few spies!"
Wang Hao put down his wine glass, picked up a piece of the disassembled armrest, and sneered.
There is a line of words subtly engraved below the handrail; it would be difficult to notice if you didn't look closely.
This line of text contained intelligence about the Australia base, and it was undoubtedly spies from other factions infiltrated among the renovation workers.
This is unavoidable. After all, Xiao Qingyu and the others are not professionals in this field, so it is difficult for them to guard against those spies. Moreover, Zhao Fengxue's family, who came from the Blood Robe Tower, had only been there for a short time.
Only a portion of the spies were roughly eliminated; many more deeply hidden ones are currently untouchable.
With 100,000 craftsmen brought in previously, it was inevitable that some spies would infiltrate among them. Fortunately, Wang Hao stayed on the ship and used the Seven Po Magnetic Field to disperse his Innate Divine Sense, covering the entire giant ship.
He had observed all the spies' subtle actions, so before setting sail, he found all the items containing intelligence.
As for the spies, they were naturally left to Zhao Fengxue, the old leader, to lead the newly formed Embroidered Brocade Guard in practice.
The purpose of mobilizing so many craftsmen to carry out the interior decoration was actually to lure out these spies and prevent them from interfering with subsequent plans.
The results were very encouraging; over a thousand spies were uncovered, a number that greatly surprised him and gave him a clearer understanding of the strength and resources of those forces in the Central Plains.
Of course, he could have easily used the system's Treasure-Seeking Function to find all these people at once, but he wanted to cultivate their independence, since he couldn't rely on it to solve everything.
Once he completes the system mission, he will leave this world. Without him, Xiaoqing, Zhou Xueyi, and the others will have to face everything alone. Therefore, it is necessary to train these people as much as possible while he is still here.
Even if something unexpected happens, they will be able to live well.
So he only gave Zhao Fengxue a list and told her to send her to form the Embroidered Brocade Guard to investigate and see how many spies they could find on their own.
Of course, just to be on the safe side, Wang Hao still used the system's Treasure-Seeking Function to check the ship's hull again, only feeling relieved after confirming that there were no other oversights.
This plan to show off is crucial, and he doesn't want to mess things up at this critical juncture.
The sword energy shot out, and the selected items were shredded to dust.
"The weather is so nice!"
After doing all that, Wang Hao stood up and went to the window to look at the cloudless sky, feeling extremely depressed.
Although his magnetic field can also control the propeller's rotation, it requires continuous consumption of Innate Divine Sense for guidance and control. It's fine for a short time, but it becomes very tiring over a long period of time.
He also developed a backup power system, but it required collecting lightning power during Raiu.
He originally planned to draw upon some lightning power while sailing, since the weather on the high seas is extremely unpredictable; one moment the sun may be shining brightly, and the next moment dark clouds may gather. Drawing upon some lightning power would not be difficult.
They were almost at the Central Plains, yet the weather was still perfectly fine; there wasn't a single cloud, let alone rain. How could he not be frustrated?
