The three of them assembled the parts in the small room, and several single-man rifles gradually took shape. The manufacturing machine outside was spitting out bullets and grenades.
Li Ruobai's whole body ached, but he could only grit his teeth and persist. At this stage, having self-defense weapons is the key to survival, and there are definitely many dangers on Planet 4.
Chu Jungui took the lead in completing his work. He has set up a mission to figure out how to get back to base. At this time, the progress bar has run more than half way, and the solution is gradually taking shape.
"How are we going back?" Li Ruobai asked.
The girl looked at Chu Jungui and said, "Before going back, do you want to find the federal base first?"
Chu Jungui thought for a while and then shook his head: "There is no need. Our expansion speed is much faster than that of the Federation. So we should go back first and rebuild the starship. Only by severely damaging the Federation fleet can we fundamentally reverse the situation of the war."
"Okay." The girl had no objection.
It was not long before dawn. The three of them had something to eat, and Li Ruobai and the girl leaned against the wall and fell asleep. They have had a stressful day and are now extremely tired. Once they relax, they can no longer hold on and fall directly into sleep.
Chu Jungui left the hut, took a multi-purpose tool, and removed pieces of armor plates and structural parts from the starship wreckage. These were raw materials that would be used immediately. I was busy until the sky was twilight and the progress bar of the research mission had come to an end. Only then did the chip come up with a solution for returning to the base: a high-speed land aircraft.
This solution uses three attitude engines as propulsion power and an anti-gravity engine to reduce weight, creating a high-speed aircraft that flies close to the ground.
Chu Jungui made some modifications to the completed plan, found an open space outside the camp, and began to build the scaffolding.
The bracket is very simple. After the fixed bolts are nailed into the ground, structural members are continuously added to these pillars. After the installation reaches 5 meters, they are then expanded laterally. Chu Jungui's movements were fast and precise. The structural parts would be placed in place in one go, and then tightened with tools to complete. In this way, a basic building support gradually took shape, and by dawn, it was completed.
Chu Jungui took another look at the design drawing, then turned on the manufacturing machine and started printing wheels. After a while, four small wheels were made, and then the manufacturing machine began to spit out parts one after another, and they were assembled together to become a simple crane.
It was completely light.
The door of the hut opened, Li Ruobai put on his helmet, yawned and walked out. When he moved a little too much, he grinned, and there was no pain anywhere on his body. Such a violent fall cannot be digested in a day or two.
Li Ruobai groaned, turned his head and saw Chu Jungui driving a simple crane, dragging an engine slowly over. He looked at the basically formed bracket again, was stunned for a moment, and shouted: "You didn't sleep all night?!"
"Sleeping." Chu Jungui replied casually, while slowly adjusting the crane truck and hoisting the attitude engine to the predetermined position. This kind of engine is a big guy weighing several tons.
"How long have you been sleeping for?" Li Ruobai asked persistently.
"3 minutes."
At this time, the door opened and the girl walked out of the room. She looked around, then came to Kaitian, picked up Chu Jungui's design and looked at it, then tapped on her personal terminal, splitting the design into dozens of different sizes in an instant part, transmitted to Kaitian.
Kaitian continued to refine the decomposed parts and then input them into the manufacturing machine. Several manufacturing machines started working at the same time to manufacture parts one by one.
The girl pushed the newly made transport platform and it slid in front of Li Ruobai.
"Go to work!"
Li Ruobai picked up a heavy hydraulic component, placed it on the flatbed, and pushed it toward the construction platform. He shook his head as he walked, mumbling, obviously complaining about the girl's bad attitude. However, he complained, and when he saw the girl, he felt a little guilty for no reason.
The girl was not idle either. After breaking down the blueprint, she and Li Ruobai moved the parts and installed them.
After more than ten hours of hard work, the land aircraft designed by Chu Jungui finally took shape. The three attitude engines are arranged in a Z-shaped layout, with two nozzles tilted downward and one placed horizontally. In front of the engine is the fuel tank and power furnace, then in front is the anti-gravity engine used to balance the center of gravity and the control brain, and in front is the cockpit.
The size of the entire aircraft is a bit strange, and the layout is extremely compact. The three attitude engines take up more than half of the volume, and the rest of the aircraft together are less than half. The proportions are very uncoordinated.
Looking at the cockpit again, Li Ruobai was speechless. The cockpit has three seats, one in the front and two in the back. That's all. The key is that the cockpit is not capped and is actually semi-open!
But when everyone was working nervously, Li Ruobai couldn't complain. Furthermore, in the past, Chu Jungui had many more bizarre designs than this one, but the final results were quite good. Even the squirrel cannon version of the starship maximized its limited performance and achieved quite brilliant results.
Therefore, Li Ruobai could only endure it and wait for the result.
The aircraft was quickly built. Chu Jungui removed the brackets, and Li Ruobai flew alone to the abandoned equipment piled with scrapped power furnaces. He took an alien version of the incendiary bomb in his hand, weighed it, and threw it hard.
A yellow-green flame ignited on the equipment pile, spread quickly, and covered the entire equipment pile in the blink of an eye. The flames were not obvious, they only appeared vaguely, but the thick smoke above the fire was extremely conspicuous, reaching hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye and continuing to extend upwards. The equipment in the flames quickly transformed and turned into a puddle of indistinguishable residue.
Seeing more than a dozen power furnaces and numerous equipment being scrapped, Li Ruobai sighed, feeling a little heartbroken. He and Chu Jungui moved these out one by one and installed them one by one. It was a pity to burn them down like this. He turned towards the forward wreckage of the starship, poured fuel over it, and set it on fire.
Although survival-grade composite materials are not a big secret, they should last as long as they last.
Li Ruobai ignited the wreckage of the spacecraft one by one, then returned to the camp, doused the camp with fuel and set it on fire.
In the forest, several smoke pillars shot straight into the sky, which was extremely eye-catching.
"Come up, it's time for us to set off." Chu Jungui greeted from the aircraft.
Li Ruobai activated the propulsion system of the armor, flew onto the aircraft, sat down on the seat, activated the fixed mode, and nailed himself firmly to the seat.
Chu Jungui started the aircraft, and as the attitude engine roared, the aircraft suddenly accelerated and rushed into the distance.
Li Ruobai sat on the open-air seat, watching the scenery passing by on both sides, and listening to the roaring wind, he couldn't help but asked: "Are we riding the wind and waves?"
