"I have no money,"
Flying Sky Duke imdiately declared.
"You don't need to spend money," Zhou Yi told him, "You provide the technology, and I'll provide the money. The company needs its own satellite to ensure that there is a foothold for the working electric cat in outer orbit as well."
"I know electric cat technology."
A line of text popped up on Flying Sky Duke's screen: "It does indeed match well with satellites, transmitting electrical signals through satellite signals. Having electric cats serve as operators on satellites poses no problem."
"But the satellite system and network of the Star Axis have been built for years and is very complete. From a technical standpoint, using existing standards, newcors can hardly catch up with the leaders in the sa field."
"I'm not trying to compete in the satellite field,"
Zhou Yi said, "This is part of the electric cat system. Nowadays, more and more areas on the ground are building power facilities and conducting networks to provide employnt activities for electric cats. But outer sea and near-Earth orbits are still a blank slate, and related infrastructures definitely need to be built. This is part of the infrastructure of the electric cat system."
The cara on Flying Sky Duke flickered: "If this is the purpose, then there is no problem."
"I have an electric cat."
The sea lord of the ch said this, and an electric arc cat head appeared on his old monitor head.
"Its na is 'Eni,' and due to its poor innate constitution, it needs to rest for at least 12 hours a day and easily falls into a coma. Can you treat it? I can pay you the treatnt fee from the rocket cost."
Zhou Yi summoned the cat god.
After examining it, the cat god said, "Chairman, it is not one of our company's electric cats."
Zhou Yi turned back and asked Flying Sky Duke, "Your electric cat… is it from Spark Plain?"
"I think it's not,"
Flying Sky Duke said, "It was given to by a custor as paynt, valued at 5000 Light Seeds, saying it was from the Wasteland Developnt Company. Later I bought an electric cat transcoder and found that it couldn't be used. So, it's obvious it wasn't cultivated by your side, as the charge paraters were incorrect. I think it should be a Western electric cat from the black market."
He explained a bit to Zhou Yi.
The electric cat system is spreading like wildfire on the Eastern Continent, connecting with the Wasteland Developnt Company and the Developnt Alliance here.
However, in the western regions far from the company, a lot of information cos late, and changes are not as swift as in the place of origin.
As the Western Continent focuses more on imdiate combat power and confrontation rather than developnt and managent, at first, all parties did not pay much attention and only regarded electric cats as B-level intensity warriors.
By the ti they realized, it was too late, and they couldn't get hold of the company's electric cats on the market.
After the company transferred the electric cats once, they switched to a labor dispatch system. The electric cats remained company mbers but worked in other regions.
This led to electric cat prices rising continuously, and the hiring price of independent electric cats kept increasing.
Therefore, the Western Continent developed another path: imitating the Curved House.
Through nurous experints, they hatched electric cats using self-made Curved Houses. However, these electric cats mostly have defects, either with innate insufficient electricity, unpredictable temperant; so are uncontrollable, and so even turn on their masters.
These locally bred electric cats are collectively called Western electric cats.
Eni is one of the better specins among them. Its character is stable and doesn't attack people randomly, but it has to sleep for half the day.
Hearing this, Zhou Yi wasn't very surprised either.
The technology may be impractical, but it's almost impossible for other external organizations to perfectly replicate the company's systematic incubation, rigorous selection process, and huge investnt in cultivating electric cats.
Once you've used fiber-optic internet, it's hard to go back to the era of 10kb dial-up internet.
The sa applies to electric cats.
On the Eastern Continent, all parties have seen the company's electric cats, even the part of the unemployed cats that the company eliminated, they are still plug-and-play, stable, and reliable.
Wild electric cats in the job field can't compete at all.
Although it was not his company's electric cat, Zhou Yi still let the cat god try to find a solution. The first request of a cooperative partner wasn't too much, so he helped out.
The cat god said, "Chairman, I'll restore its energy state."
"Can it be done?"
"But it's very consuming, which is why it's generally not done."
Zhou Yi nodded.
The cat god connected with Eni using an electric arc, extending many electric arcs to modify it. Like electric welding, it kept flashing, attracting a lot of attention.
Five minutes later.
The cat god stopped: "It should no longer have that problem now."
"The reason it could only last 12 hours is due to an innate internal energy structure defect, stemming from insufficient energy supply in the early incubation period, leading to defects starting from the electric ball stage."
A smiley face symbol appeared on Flying Sky Duke's monitor: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou. Eni is my only friend, it ans a lot to ."
Zhou Yi was curious: "Aren't you unable to talk to it?"
"Even if it doesn't talk back, it's always by my side,"
Flying Sky Duke said, "It's the only life that accompanies long-term and is willing to watch build rockets."
At this mont, Eni had turned into a ball of electricity and circled around Flying Sky Duke, appearing very excited.
Zhou Yi said, "There won't be any charge for this treatnt. Having a long-term companion as a friend is not easy. We can discuss specific cooperative negotiations later. See you."
"Wait a mont."
Flying Sky Duke suddenly said, "Mr. Zhou, there is a special kind of rocket. Are you interested? This type of rocket costs only 1/10th of the traditional Light Seal Rocket, but it also has so special risks."
"However, the related information needs to be kept confidential. Let's use the encrypted machine channel to communicate,"
Zhou Yi said: "No need to trouble so much."
He reached out and touched the steel fra of Flying Sky Duke.
Energy input, consciousness synch opened.
"This will work."
"This is the channel connection of the consciousness domain?? Mr. Zhou's abilities are truly enviable!"
Flying Sky Duke imdiately got serious: "Based on the Light Imprint Skill, when the cost of the rocket is reduced to a certain critical point, it can no longer be reduced because necessary foundational light imprints need to be equipped and connected. This is a relatively mature technology application, considering necessary safety and stability. The lowest cost margin with current materials and technology is no secret."
"Hence, I tried to develop so new types of rockets. Most ended in failure, but there is one feasible discovery."
"In the Dead Sea, there is a level-D creature called the 'Bone Horseshoe Crab'; they can bounce, leap, and roam in the Dead Sea. This species has a very tough bone structure, lightweight core structure, high chanical strength, high absorption capacity, strong load-bearing ability, and very high stability..."
"I modified part of their chanical exoskeleton, using their bones as the natural power source to absorb energy. At first, you just need enough detachable boosters to launch them into satellite orbit. This can greatly reduce the weight burden."
"Currently, I have successfully launched 3 Bone Horseshoe Crab Rockets and kept them in near-Earth orbit. According to the skin satellite information fixed in their bodies, they are currently operating well and absorbing more energy in near-Earth orbit."
"If it's just for launching miniature satellites carrying electric cats, the Bone Horseshoe Crab Rocket is sufficient. Adding satellites, the launch cost of a single rocket can be compressed to 30,000 Light Seeds."
Zhou Yi felt a shock in his heart.
Good gracious.
Biological rockets and satellite integration have already been successfully implented in the Wasteland World!
He recalled.
He had seen this Guangna Species of Bone Horseshoe Crab himself before.
When the company's courier business was booming, Bone Fish couriers were also a key focus of training.
Zhou Yi and Octopus Brother Bi Qi invested a large number of Light Seeds on Bone Fish, resulting in the birth of a new evolutionary branch - the Rocket Bone Fish. During the training process, a small portion of Bone Fish evolved into Bone Horseshoe Crabs.
Rocket Bone Fish could briefly fly into high altitude but had poor endurance and slow speed; Bone Horseshoe Crabs had higher bone strength but could only jump long distances.
Later, as the courier business was hit hard due to sanctions on the company, Bone Fish growth also slowed and gradually beca neglected.
Zhou Yi was moved.
So could Rocket Bone Fish also be considered?
He ntioned this to Flying Sky Duke.
"Rocket Bone Fish, with the White Bone Triangular Tower structure, natural flight characteristics..."
He listened very carefully and repeatedly confird the relevant data: "The type you described should be another branch of Bone Horseshoe Crab. Although their bone strength is slightly lower, they have the ability to fly, which can help carry satellites to move in orbit."
"Based on this foundation, just developing auxiliary devices for high-speed flight is sufficient!"
"For example, by combining Bone Horseshoe Crab and Rocket Bone Fish, Bone Horseshoe Crab is responsible for breaking the Karman line from the ground and sending Rocket Bone Fish to over 100 kiloters. Then, Bone Horseshoe Crab returns to the Dead Sea. Rocket Bone Fish can fly lightly and can carry miniature satellites to move freely in orbit for a long ti, which Bone Horseshoe Crab can't do!"
Flying Sky Duke was instantly excited: "They are naturally compatible! Nature is marvelous, life itself is the answer!!"
Zhou Yi, inspired by the reminder, also found it highly feasible.
The two delved deeper into the topic.
Coming back to his senses, another two hours had passed.
Zhou Yi had to cut it short: "We'll continue this talk later. I have to go back now."
"Alright, anyti you are free, contact ! I want to start this biological rocket modification now!"
Flying Sky Duke could hardly wait.
...
As he walked, Zhou Yi arrived at Lady i's booth.
There were various paper package boxes on the counter, labeled with nas like "Anti-Differentiation Powder," "Quick Exclusion Liquid," "Awakening Powder" in both Eastern and Western languages.
Only then did Zhou Yi realize that Lady i's core industry was pharmaceuticals.
"Mr. Zhou, finally eting you,"
Lady i smiled and ca over graciously, giving Zhou Yi a hug.
This female governor from the Forbidden Continent was as aggressive in beauty and gaze as in the images.
But after eting in person, Zhou Yi realized it was Lady i's habit to look directly at the other party, to see if they avoided or looked back at her gaze.
She wore dagger-shaped earrings in her earlobes, with sharp eyes, giving off a keen sense like an unsheathed sword.
But Zhou Yi was more concerned about the products.
He directly asked: "What is your most important product here?"
"This one."
Lady i picked up a small thick glass bottle and handed it to Zhou Yi.
"Miris..."
Looking at the text, Zhou Yi recalled: "This is the sa dicine given to Qin Xie earlier, an enhanced organ evolution drug?"
"Correct."
The female governor nodded: "But it's not our original creation. We just make generic drugs at Tri-Branch Slope. However, the current production is limited, so the final market price stays high."
Zhou Yi naturally thought: "The original drug of Miris is manufactured by the Heavenly Kingdom?"
"Mr. Zhou seems knowledgeable about drugs,"
Lady i smiled, her earring swaying slightly: "But it doesn't co from the Heavenly Kingdom."
"All our drugs co from at Mountain."
