The al offered by the base cafeteria didn’t disappoint Peter and the others’ expectations—fresh rice and vegetables, things they hadn’t eaten for a long ti. Especially fresh at was provided, though scarce, it brought Peter and others, who hadn’t tasted at in years, to tears once again.
If it weren’t for the prior few als aboard the Land Ship that prepared them, Peter and his group might have embarrassed themselves with their eating manners during the lunch.
Even so, they gobbled down every bite, leaving each of them uncomfortably stuffed.
Everyone clearly felt unsatisfied; had their stomachs not sent warnings that overeating would cause issues, they might have continued stuffing themselves with food.
This resulted in Peter and others looking like they were pregnant in October, slumped in their chairs for a long while after finishing the al.
"This is the fullest I’ve been since the disaster hit!" One person seed to recover, adjusted their posture, genuinely expressing their gratitude.
"Fla Country’s resources seem so rich, did you notice? They didn’t limit how many tis we could get food; they only requested that we finish what we take, no waste!" Another person, who ate relatively less and had seed observant, shared his revelation: "It ans the Fla Country people don’t care how much you eat!"
Hearing this, Peter couldn’t resist joking: "If I could eat like this every day, I’d do whatever the Fla Country folks ask of , no problem!"
"Haha! Fla Country folks wouldn’t be interested in an old guy like you!" The crowd laughed at Peter’s jest, but soone more curious and concerned asked: "But what’s the project that Fla Country wants to research? Everyone has different expertise, right?"
"I’m in electrical engineering, used to work on the circuitry for Airbus A350’s wings, how about you guys? Maybe we can deduce what Fla Country wants to build from our specialized fields!"
"I’m in chanics, used to teach at university." Peter shared his area of expertise.
"chanics? Specifically which field? I’m in chanics too, but my study is in chanical dynamics, had a research project but it was halted after the disaster." Another person was eager to share, showing a strong desire to discuss with Peter.
After all, it’s been years since the disaster struck, and no one was left to discuss within their professional domains; eting soone like Peter clearly made him urgent to discuss past research.
"I research large chanical control." Peter seed reluctant to ntion the past, as he had been a scholar and now reduced to repairing vehicles for the Knights, a significant downfall.
This sentint wasn’t unique to Peter, only so preferred to reminisce about the past over acknowledging the present.
Through their exchange, they realized their fields spanned chanics, aviation, electrical, and tallurgical industries—they intersected, but it seed unlikely to deduce Fla Country’s intentions by combining their expertise.
After all, combining these industries could an constructing anything.
As the group discussed, an announcent suddenly echoed throughout the base, alternating between multiple languages, informing all project participants about a eting in the afternoon.
On hearing the announcent, the group abandoned further speculation—Fla Country would certainly clarify their intentions at the afternoon eting.
Rather than continue guessing, they decided to await the eting’s insights, planning to leave the cafeteria, rest in their rooms, then attend the afternoon eting together.
Peter and his companions eventually left for their rooms, resting briefly on their beds before heading out together, following the crowd to a huge hangar for the eting.
Clearly, there were far too many participants for Fla Country to prepare a eting room; hence a hangar at the base was chosen for the venue.
Although it was a hangar, plenty of chairs were prepared to accommodate everyone, ensuring no need to stand.
Peter and his companions settled into a corner, chatting casually as they awaited the eting’s start.
Following the prior announcent, all participants had been inford about the eting, quickly filling every seat in the hangar.
As attendees arrived, notable experts from Fla Country appeared, alongside influential figures from other countries, each a leader in their industry.
Soon, a eting host from Fla Country comnced the proceedings with introductory remarks, then projected on a vast white cloth suspended in the hangar a picture visible to all attendees.
The image depicted a remarkably enormous flying machine, its specifications listed beside it.
"Oh my God! They’re attempting to build this kind of thing!" "Are the Fla Country folks crazy? How can this be built!"
"Such magnitude, a takeoff weight over a hundred thousand tonnes—what can make it fly?!"
The massive "Roc" strategic airspace carrier platform sparked intense discussion among attendees, each astounded by the flying machine’s scale and disbelief at its feasibility.
Whether the flying altitude, takeoff weight, or sheer size, the "Roc" strategic airspace carrier platform was beyond their understanding of current human technological capabilities; they believed constructing such a machine and making it fly was impossible.
Yet Fla Country was clearly unconcerned about these issues; Chen Xin, as the project leader, began addressing attendees to dispel their doubts and bolster confidence in completing this research project.
Chen Xin naturally referenced Fla Country’s currently operational "Land Ship" and land aircraft carriers for demonstration.
Observing the large land aircraft carrier capable of flight reawakened murmuring among attendees, though now they speculated on the feasibility of constructing the "Roc".
