Sky-cracking Rider

Once again seeing the party with the money, Nangong Ruiyang's expression turned sour. Does having money mean you're impressive?

Damn it... having money really is impressive.

Seeing Chen Fei, the members of the Nangong team immediately seemed like they'd been injected with adrenaline, suddenly full of spirit.

Nothing is more surprising than the unexpected. Originally, everyone thought there was no money, and everyone was mentally prepared to work out of passion. But unexpectedly, not only did they give money, but they gave plenty of it.

This kind of motivational effect was almost instantaneous.

After all, the money was given just yesterday, so we must perform well in front of the party.

Nangong Ruiyang said irritably, "What the hell are you here for again?"

Authority cannot be bent, wealth cannot corrupt; after giving the money, you can go away as far as possible.

Especially seeing Chen Fei beside Shen Fei, Nangong Ruiyang couldn't help but feel depressed.

"I'm here to notify you that the Northern Weapons Industry Group's technology pool catalog is fully open to you, I have received full authorization."

If not for the successful acquisition of the technology pool, Chen Fei wouldn't have come a second time.

"..."

Inside the sunroom by the 310 airport tarmac, there was a sudden silence.

Including Nangong Ruiyang, everyone except Chen Fei and Shen Fei thought they were experiencing auditory hallucinations.

Nangong Ruiyang said furiously, "Is it fun to mess with people like this!!!"

Is the party impressive?

The party is impressive!

But you shouldn't joke around like this!

"Secretary Shen!"

Chen Fei nodded towards the person beside him.

Shen Fei is now his secretary. (Old Shen depressed.gif)

"The board of directors unanimously passed the application and agreed to open all technologies in the technology pool to Chen Fei."

Secretary Shen conveyed the decision of the group company's executives.

The reaction of the Nangong team was completely different when this sentence came from her mouth compared to Chen Fei's.

The former represents an individual, while the latter truly represents the group's will; it was not a joke.

"Have the executives of the group company gone mad?"

Nangong Ruiyang tugged at his hair forcefully, not understanding that the situation had slipped from his understanding.

"The board's decision, the executives unanimously agreed, you're responsible for execution."

Shen Fei confirmed again.

"Besides the Northern Weapons Industry Group's technology pool catalog, there's also the Louis Industries' technology pool catalog, soon to be followed by the National Defense Star Aerospace Company's technology pool. I will continue to seek support from technology pools in the aerospace industry, such as Dragoon Magic Movement Industries, Boeing Aerospace Company, Skycar Company, Rolls Aerospace Group, United Aircraft Manufacturing Company, and also the alchemy data catalog and magic array data catalog of the Cangqiong Star Silan Dynasty."

When Chen Fei said this, not only did Nangong Ruiyang, but even Shen Fei beside him showed an incredible expression.

If this was bragging, he would've been beaten up already.

But suddenly, the top executives of the Northern Weapons Industry Group collectively took leave of their senses, actually permitting the complete opening of the technology pool to Chen Fei. This in itself is extremely unbelievable, yet this is the truth, and it has already been officially approved for filing, ready to be announced soon.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Nangong Ruiyang couldn't control himself anymore.

"The technology pool catalog of the Northern Weapons Industry Group, the technology pool catalog of Louis Industries! The alchemy data catalog and magic array data catalog of the Silan Dynasty!"

Chen Fei raised his hand, and three thin 12-inch tablets appeared with a faint silver light on the back. One tablet for each catalog, authorized by Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam", allowing cloud retrieval of technology library data stored in planetary-level compute nodes.

During dinner at the Shen Family, Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" had already downloaded all the data from the Northern Weapons Industry Group's technology pool. Besides the database of planetary-level compute nodes, Chen Fei's brain had a backup; human brain memory storage density far exceeds that of semiconductor storage units, storing a bit of technology data is practically nothing.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

There wasn't a hint of unseriousness on Chen Fei's face, causing Nangong Ruiyang's repetition of his previous sentence to become unusually feeble.

Shen Fei curiously asked, "Did Mr. Louis really open up the entire technology pool to you?"

The technology pool is the lifeline of a corporation. Even the high-level executives can't casually access the complete technology pool; opening it to outsiders means willingly handing the critical parts to others. A slight push at this time could result in collapse and bankruptcy within 72 hours, which is not a big deal for a colossal enterprise like the Northern Weapons Industry Group.

"A long time ago, Mr. Randon even gave me a technology research and development team to study the Element Annihilation Weapon and Super Star Crystal."

Chen Fei chose not to continue keeping secrets and instead laid some situations bare to explain them clearly.

Louis Industrial Company didn't put all its eggs in one basket. Keeping a backup team with family members inside Chen Fei's Giant Battleship is semi-public information. While the public is unaware, the sovereignty is very clear, to prevent the situation from worsening and being caught entirely by the 'Sagali' civilization.

The current specifications of the Element Annihilation Bomb can't threaten the fused Biological Space Mothership, but it can still easily annihilate other smaller-scaled Biological Combat Weapons. The sovereignties tacitly approved Louis Landon's operation, so in case Chen Xiao'er needed to escape, he could take this trump card along.

Nangong Ruiyang: "..."

His self-esteem was hit.

He thought that as an engineer at the Northern Weapons Industry Group, gathering a group of like-minded partners to collaboratively develop a brand new Crystal Jet wasn't just a rare exercise and challenge but also a way to tell Chen Fei from a superior stance that he's not so great and inevitably has to seek help.

But looking now, what does his Crystal Jet R&D team count as?

The other side even has a more incredible R&D team. Although not in the aerospace field, things like the Element Annihilation Weapon and Super Star Crystal are pretty high-end!

Those in the Sun Room are all very clever, and of course, understand what this implies; Chen Fei is not alone!

The technology pool represents that behind him, not only are there Louis Industrial Company and the Silan Dynasty, but now there's also the Northern Weapons Industry Group.

Family, has anyone heard of prying off a wall brick (Shen Fei as a girlfriend), and ending up prying away the entire house along with the yard? It's simply unreasonable.

The future father-in-law, deputy general manager at Northern Weapons Industry Group, who was still preparing to secure a post for Chen Xiao'er, is now still in a stupor. Isn't this home-theft too much?

"So the materials in the technology pool directory, choose whichever you like, pick out the best, and if there's anything else, let me know, and I'll get authorization."

Including what has already been obtained, Chen Fei thinks that the technology pools of Uncle's National Defense Star and Lin's Dragoon Magic Movement Industries should also be easy to get hold of since they are both family.

As for the other companies, it probably depends on how supportive their sovereignties are.

"With your assurance, we…" Nangong Ruiyang took a deep breath, looked at his teammates, and decisively said, "will accompany the gentleman, even if it means risking it all."

Constrained by technical patents and professional guidelines, they dared not use many of the Northern Weapons Industry Group's technologies on this Crystal Jet. Often, they had to exhaustively come up with new technologies as replacements, which was no easy task.

If they could have the full support of the group's technology pool, it would be like turning on a cheat, no, opening an accelerator. The team's concern now isn't a lack of technology, but which technologies to select and how to optimally combine them.

"By the way, there's another document that might help you guys."

Chen Fei once again pulled out a tablet and handed it personally to Nangong Ruiyang, whose attitude had undergone a complete change, and then took Shen Fei to board the small flying ship on the tarmac.

With time and means of transport available, it's naturally time to take the girlfriend back home to meet the parents!

"What was inside that last tablet?"

Shen Fei couldn't resist her curiosity as she hadn't seen the information stored on the last tablet Chen Fei handed to Nangong Ruiyang.

Chen Fei casually replied, "Oh, just some simulation combat data; it should be somewhat useful."

He had saved all the data from the simulation ranking battles at Barksdale Air Force Base, not only of his own battles with the Sky Knights but also those between other Sky Knights. Low-level battles among the likes of Ah Mao and Ah Gou were directly filtered out; watching them would be a waste of time.

For Chen Fei himself, using his most adept methods to confront a real Sky Knight wouldn't necessarily end in a loss, and there might even be a victory, but having him pilot a Crystal Jet solo would most likely result in him getting beaten embarrassingly. This is also the real reason why Chen Fei could not become a Sky Knight.

Meanwhile...

Inquisitively, Nangong Ruiyang opened the last tablet Chen Fei had handed him, and the data presented made his eyes involuntarily widen.

"What the hell is this!!!"

A Husky had mingled into a wolf pack, and not only did it not reveal its true form, but it was also doing quite well.

Upon looking at those newly upgraded prototypes on the tarmac, Nangong Ruiyang couldn't help but feel exhilarated. Even his own father, senior engineer Nangong Chengyu from the group's company, did not have the qualification to independently lead a team to custom-build Crystal Jets for the Sky Knights. Nonetheless, could he and these young people on-site truly take on a task that only top-notch teams full of experts could handle?

Like Chen Fei, Nangong Ruiyang and the others are young, and young people have one thing in common: they dare to take risks, challenge, and go for it. If they succeed, they'd gain fame, and if they fail, they'd come away disgraced.

Many times, having just a thirty percent chance is worth the attempt, especially when it's fifty-fifty; naturally, you go for it!

Nangong Ruiyang's gaze became increasingly clear, and his fingers gradually clenched into a fist.
