Mobile Shelter

Chapter 66 Drastic Submarine Modification

After listening to Wu Yifei's explanation, Dong Qi only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

Adding an internal oxygen generator to his car was already on Dong Qi's agenda, but it wasn't a high priority.

Now that Wu Yifei can provide it directly, it saves Dong Qi a lot of trouble.

In addition, it is now clear that as long as there is a mutated creature dying in the vicinity, even if one does not do it personally, one can obtain the unknown energy required for the manifestation of thought.

In that case, the next operation will definitely need to be closer to the battlefield.

Most importantly, after joining this mission, Dong Qi can enter the dock without arousing suspicion from others, investigate the actual condition of the ships there, and obtain accurate intelligence for subsequent operations.

Just as Dong Qi and Wu Yifei were discussing the follow-up action plan, the huge marine creature captured by the military had already been loaded onto a truck and driven away.

Only after the military operation was completed did someone come to hand over the reins to Wu Yifei.

At this time, Wu Yifei had already reached a deep cooperation agreement with Dong Qi in private, so he did not take the electromagnetic gun test too seriously.

Most importantly, Wu Yifei now needs to rely on the electromagnetic railgun testing mission to reduce the attention Dong Qi receives within the research institute.

Therefore, Wu Yifei chose to abandon the several test tasks originally scheduled for today and prepared to reschedule them for another day.

The military personnel sent to handle the handover did not raise any questions after hearing Wu Yifei's plan, since their main objective today was to capture the giant sea creature.

Dong Qi, acting as bait, had already completed his plan. Although he did not participate much in the entire operation, he only fired two electromagnetic cannons that hit the target.

However, because the entire operation was not communicated to Dong Qi in advance, and despite the fact that the arrest mission went very smoothly.

However, when the mission was actually planned, no one knew whether this mutated marine creature hiding underwater had the means to attack from a distance. So, theoretically speaking, Dong Qi, as bait, still needed to bear a certain degree of danger.

For this reason, even though the mission was successfully completed, the military agreed to Wu Yifei's request to postpone the next electromagnetic gun test, just to give Dong Qi some time to calm down.

Furthermore, the research institute was the main organizer of this electromagnetic railgun test mission, and their presence was merely as a supporting party to witness the event. Therefore, since Wu Yifei had taken the initiative to postpone the test, they were even less likely to raise any questions.

After the military personnel left, Wu Yifei didn't linger and immediately drove with Dong Qi to the research institute.

Compared to the open test site where the electromagnetic gun was installed last time, this time the vehicle drove directly into a fully enclosed factory building.

Although from the outside, this fully enclosed building appears to be a temporary conversion from an original steel structure factory, its complex interior decoration reveals that the equipment placed here is anything but ordinary.

After passing through layers of security to enter the equipment modification room, Wu Yifei told Dong Qi to stay in the car and wait for him, while he went alone to apply for the equipment.

For some reason, the entire application process was not only smooth but also exceptionally fast.

Wu Yifei had originally planned to use his personal connections to skip the tedious waiting process and prioritize the equipment registration and approval.

Under normal circumstances, this process would take at least during the daytime.

But Wu Yifei never expected that the entire process would take only about two hours. He had retrieved the equipment from the warehouse and delivered it to Dong Qi's car.

The oxygen generator that was delivered to Dong Qi looked like a rectangular prism, similar to a cabinet air conditioner.

This stand-alone device can be installed simply by fixing it inside the vehicle and providing it with power.

Therefore, the installation of oxygen generating equipment did not require the help of professionals; the two of them could easily handle it on their own.

Because this thing requires electricity, Dong Qi installed it next to the battery in the rear compartment, which saves space and looks better.

After the oxygen supply equipment was installed, Wu Yifei said, "I've already taken over the mission for you. The ship that will be responsible for the pick-up will depart tomorrow. You need to drive this car onto the ship tonight."

Regarding supplies, I've already applied for them for you. Because the mission you're carrying out is quite special, I've selected high-energy, durable supplies for you.

Based on the number of people your vehicle can carry, the maximum allocation you can apply for is a seven-day supply for twelve people. I'll take you to the warehouse in a bit to pick it up directly. The paperwork is already being processed, so you don't need to worry about it.

Although I am not participating in this mission, I have a friend on the ship.

There are only the two of us here now, so I'll be honest with you: theoretically, there shouldn't be anything too dangerous on this rendezvous mission.

But if something unexpected happens, and you manage to bring some people back, I hope my friend is among them.

Dong Qi was not surprised to hear Wu Yifei say that.

The reason for this mission, to put it bluntly, was that Wu Yifei wanted to use this mission to get an oxygen generator for Dong Qi's car for free.

Logically speaking, Dong Qi had no chance to participate in this mission at all. After all, if danger were to occur at sea, no one would be foolish enough to choose a vehicle as an escape vehicle.

Dong Qi was able to get this opportunity for two reasons. First, Dong Qi is an Awakened One, whose awakened superpower can enhance vehicles, making his natal car completely sealed and giving it the potential to become a submarine.

Secondly, due to the EMP, there were very few ships that could navigate freely at that time, and not a single submarine. This allowed Dong Qi's "destined car," this simple knock-off version, to be included in the selection list and ultimately chosen.

Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Yifei used his connections, and his friends, after learning about the effects of Dong Qi's superpowers, hesitated repeatedly before agreeing to let Dong Qi join for their own safety.

After all, in his view, if the rescue boat encountered an accident, the special vehicle like Dong Qi's life-saving car, which has functions similar to a submarine, would be safer than those small escape boats that have no defense.

As for the electromagnetic cannon on the top of the vehicle, since it was already fitted with a fully enclosed protective shield during installation, it can be turned off during descent without causing any impact.

As for underwater propulsion, it's quite simple: just add external louvers to the sides of the four tire rims.

Controlling the car's buoyancy and descent is even simpler; just install an airbag under the vehicle's chassis to temporarily control the vehicle's position in the water.

Although this simple modification is not durable, it should not cause much of a problem if used only once or twice.
