The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 738 The Floating Island Project

In the end, Feng Jiangong still signed the contract.

From that moment on, he was officially a member of Yangshan.

“Mr. Liang, I’m going back to Cloud Mist Island to pack my things and then leave the military completely,” Feng Jiangong said in a deep voice.

Clearly, he was determined to accelerate the process of gene recombination.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly: "Go ahead, but be careful of Zhang Yujiang. He might not let you go."

Feng Jiangong smiled and said, "I have my own pursuits. I have done a lot for the military over the years. Even if he doesn't want me to leave, he has no reason to stop me."

"Besides, we've known each other for many years, he wouldn't turn against me."

"I just hope he can make a decision soon. After I leave, it will be even more difficult for them to deal with Sprout Company."

Liang Yuan gave Feng Jiangong a deep look: "You've underestimated your old commander."

"You think he can't withstand the firepower of Sprout Company, but maybe they've already planned their escape route."

Feng Jiangong was stunned: "How could that be?"

"Go check out the underwater base he built when you have time."

"He might have already been planning to start a new business."

Liang Yuan shook his head, said no more, and said, "Go, after you're done packing, come find me in Yangshan."

"it is good!"

Feng Jiangong nodded in agreement and then quickly left the Miyuan Rainforest.

Liang Yuan gave Zhao Kai a few more instructions before hurrying back to Yangshan.

He needs to prepare for the launch of the Yangshan-2 spacecraft.

Now that the mutant beasts are ready, all that's left is to find a floating island, seize it as a base, and deal with potential enemies, such as the Sprout Corporation!
The following morning, Yangshan, R&D Department.

The brand-new, saucer-shaped Yangshan-2 spacecraft is ready.

Li Hanzhong and others gathered in the meeting room, their expressions solemn.

"Mr. Liang, the first spacecraft is ready. Shall we launch now?"

Liang Yuan nodded and said, "Let's launch it."

With Liang Yuan's command, the Yangshan-2 spacecraft received the order and quickly soared into the sky, flying directly into the dark clouds.

Rumble!
A deafening roar of thunder came from within the dark clouds, and lightning struck the surface of the Yangshan No. 2 spaceship.

However, countless runes quickly lit up on the surface of the Yangshan-2 spacecraft, forming a strange defensive shield.

The high voltage of the thunderstorm was quickly diluted by the shield and then continuously absorbed by Yangshan-2, which converted it into electricity to charge the spacecraft's kinetic energy system!

"It worked! It worked!"

"The high-voltage lightning conversion and energy charging system is a success!"

"Blonde, activate the self-test system and check all the functions of the spacecraft."

Xu Huang, a veteran pilot, quickly issued the order.

Huang Fa is a second-generation pilot trained by Yangshan. His mentor was Xu Huang, the pilot of Yangshan No. 1.

Xu Huang and his comrades were among the first to volunteer for the flight experiment, and they received great honor after the experiment was successful.

Liang Yuan did not treat them unfairly, giving them the best possible conditions and appointing them as flight instructors.

Now, Xu Huang and others have not only successfully joined Yangshan and become members of Yangshan, but their families have also moved into the Mirage Serpent Space and are enjoying the protection of the Yangshan Refuge.

As a result, Xu Huang and others even became veterans of the air force. Now they no longer have to perform high-risk flight missions, but have begun to guide the training of the next generation of pilots.

Liang Yuan's actions were certainly not because Xu Huang and the others were actually that skilled in flying.

He just wanted to use this method to let outsiders know something clearly.

Anyone who contributes to Yangshan and is willing to make sacrifices for Yangshan will never be treated unfairly by Yangshan.

This is actually the "spending a fortune to buy bones" thing; Liang Yuan wanted this kind of fame.

In fact, Liang Yuan's move was very effective.

Previously, no one dared to sign up for the pilot mission, but now many people are scrambling to join the Yangshan-2 test flight program.

Everyone knows that Yangshan will not mistreat its pilots; their benefits are far better than those of ordinary patrol team members.

Besides encouraging people to sign up, pilots also face greater dangers when flying spacecraft.

Moreover, spacecraft are extremely expensive as aircraft, which places higher demands on the skills of pilots.

Therefore, pilot selection is definitely based on merit, and these outstanding personnel will naturally receive higher compensation.

Huang Fa was one of the most outstanding individuals selected from among the group.

He was not a refugee from outside; he was a member of the patrol team.

He himself is a rare earth-elemental ability user.

In order to pursue his personal development, he resolutely joined the pilot selection process.

Finally, it stood out and has now become the first spacecraft captain in the Yangshan-2 series.

Upon receiving the order, Huang Fa immediately began to inspect the spaceship.

After a series of operations, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied, "This is Yangshan-2. The spacecraft has completed its self-check and all systems are in good working order."

Upon hearing the answer, everyone in the Yangshan R&D department's conference room breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Liang Yuan said, "Let's begin the experiment."

Li Hanzhong said, "Put out experimental subject number 1."

"Yes!"

The blond man quickly opened the hatch, and a mechanical arm extended from the hull, throwing out a box engraved with an energy-sealing symbol.

Boom!

The box was struck by terrifying lightning the moment it left the protective shield.

In an instant, the box exploded, revealing a strange red fish inside.

Although the box was sealed with an energy-sealing talisman, lightning in nature was clearly outside the realm of supernatural abilities, and the talisman could not block it in the slightest under the surging thunderclouds. However, the strange red fish inside was unable to unleash its powers and was sealed within.

But then the box broke, and the strange fish immediately emerged.

Before the strange fish could realize where it was, a barrage of lightning bolts roared down from all sides.

Its scales instinctively lit up with rays of light, forming protective energy shields around its body.

Rumble!
Countless bolts of lightning struck the strange fish.

The red energy shield was instantly blasted to smithereens, and the entire red monster fish was immediately reduced to charred charcoal.

It was reduced to ashes before it could even free fall.

Liang Yuan frowned slightly when he saw this scene being broadcast live.

"The intensity of the thunderstorm exceeded my expectations. Even a purely mutated organism with a genetic recombination rate of 20% would find it difficult to withstand a thunderstorm attack of this level."

"Activate Experiment Subject 2."

Liang Yuan spoke up.

Subsequently, the mutated lobster (subject number 2), the mutated seahorse (subject number 3), and the mutated crab (subject number 4) were successively sent into the thunderstorm.

Among them, the mutated crab of the fourth experimental subject with the earth attribute was obviously more resistant, but it still couldn't hold out for long.

In less than ten seconds, it was blasted into charcoal.

Seeing this, Li Hanzhong said, "Mr. Liang, under such a thunderstorm, why not conduct targeted experiments on mutated beasts with lightning attributes or some kind of insulating attribute?"

Liang Yuan smiled wryly: "The two types of mutated beasts you mentioned are already rare, let alone those that are genetically recombined. I've searched for a long time but haven't found any."

Li Hanzhong stroked his chin and said, "Indeed, among lightning-attribute ability users, there are only Dong Jie and that girl Qiu Yingyue in our entire shelter."

"Most insulating abilities are based on physical constitution. I heard that there was once an ability leader in Yangshan named Li Yuefeng, who had rubber abilities? I wonder if that ability can withstand thunderstorms."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan's heart stirred slightly. Li Yuefeng's rubber ability was indeed an insulator, but whether the resistance of rubber could withstand thunderstorms remained to be verified.

"Wait a minute, my [Golden-haired Hou] talent ability also seems to be related to lightning."

Liang Yuan suddenly remembered that his golden-haired beast's talent was called 'Golden Armor Thunder Devourer'. This ability not only gave the golden-haired beast a strong defense, but also allowed it to devour lightning and strengthen itself.

"I just don't know where the limit is for this kind of absorption of lightning, or whether it can digest the high-intensity thunderstorms in thunderstorm clouds."

"We'll conduct an experiment using a village-level generator in a bit."

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan made up his mind.

The spaceship had now broken through the clouds and entered the high altitude once again.

The footage captured numerous floating islands in the void, with countless enormous mutated beasts flying and hunting between the different floating islands.

As the camera panned across the floating islands, Li Hanzhong exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Liang, look, several of the floating islands are now covered by defensive shields."

"These places have all been occupied by others?"

Are all these people from Sprout Company?

Liang Yuan also frowned deeply, as more and more floating islands were being occupied.

If Yangshan delays any longer, he might not even be able to seize a single floating island.

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan immediately said, "Prepare the spaceship, I want to go to the sky myself."

Upon hearing this, Li Hanzhong was immediately taken aback: "Mr. Liang, is there any need to take such a risk? Let the others go and explore first."

Liang Yuan shook his head: "Time waits for no one. Now that we've confirmed that our spaceship can safely pass through the thunderclouds, let's immediately begin the floating island development plan."

"Only by occupying the floating islands in advance can we gain the initiative."

Upon hearing this, Li Hanzhong, seeing that he could not persuade Liang Yuan, could only sigh and immediately ordered the preparation of a second spaceship.

Liang Yuan said, "Go and find Lao Ma and Tu Long."

Upon hearing this, Li Hanzhong quickly asked, "Is it about implementing the [Floating Island Base Construction Plan]?"

Liang Yuan nodded slightly. This plan had been mentioned in a previous meeting.

At that time, Liang Yuan had already decided that he must occupy a floating island and build the Yangshan Air Base.

The construction of this base was not something he could handle alone.

Old Ma's construction team needs to go over.

In addition, various defensive formations need to be set up, patrol teams need to be deployed, and weapons and equipment need to be transported up.

The core of this plan lies in two points: first, the spaceship must be able to successfully pass through the thunderclouds and find an unoccupied floating island.

Another point is how to transport so many people up there.

The spaceship is not large; it's just a tiny space, so it's destined not to carry too many people.

However, as a spatial ability user, Liang Yuan's Sumeru Space can carry hundreds of people up at once.

Now that the spacecraft has been successfully launched, neither of these two issues is a problem anymore.

Therefore, this plan can be implemented immediately.

At Liang Yuan's command, Yangshan immediately began to get busy.

Old Ma immediately led many earth-attribute ability users from the construction department to the scene.

With these earth-attribute ability users joining, a sizable base can be built in less than a day.

Secondly, we need to bring some R&D personnel from the R&D department. These people will be mainly responsible for setting up the rune array, which is related to the construction of the base's defensive shield.

In addition, a large number of patrol personnel are needed to protect the base and prevent enemy harassment during the construction process.

Of course, more supernatural weapons will be moved up later to strengthen the base's defenses.

That's a story for later. The most urgent task is to get through the clouds and occupy a floating island.

Tu Long and Lao Ma arrived quickly.

They had obviously known about the floating island project for a long time, so they weren't surprised when they arrived, but rather a little excited.

"Mr. Liang, are we finally about to enter the sky?" Tu Long asked excitedly.

Old Ma took a deep breath and said, "If we go through the clouds, will we be able to see the secret behind this flood?"
