My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 3018 -1005: We Gotta Get Ourselves a Solar Engine Like This!

The restriction against others entering this compartment is largely due to considerations of faith. In the view of the Sanghai People, the Sun Engine of the Sunship is the creation closest to the sun in the Mortal World, thus endowed with great symbolism and sanctity.

However, it is quite shameful to admit that despite every Sanghai person who has seen the Sunship understands the significance of the Sun Engine, no progress has been made on studying this device for the past millennium.

Even for the most skilled war craftsman in the entire Sanghai Empire, the operation mode and principle structure of the Sun Engine remain an inexplicable and even incomprehensible black box system.

Thus, when the technology officer onboard led Marquis Ma and several others into the Sun Engine module, aside from caution, there was a faint trace of expectation in his heart… If they could get some help from those claiming to be ‘creator’s devotees in another world,’ the entire Empire’s craftsmen would be grateful to them.

After all, these fellows did look quite professional.

The technology officer secretly peeked at the notes recorded by Marquis Ma and Tea-drinking Uncle, whose mysterious and apparently profound deconstructions and speculations made him realize these people had real expertise.

“Is this engine an enclosed structure? Alas, guessed it.”

Marquis Ma, after entering the inside of the Sun Engine and glancing at the huge cylindrical metal structure ahead, sighed with some disappointment:

“As we predicted, highly precision items from the creator’s system have extremely severe security measures, such heavy multi-layer encapsulation, adopting outer layer protection constructed with materials of unbelievable strength, enough to ensure that even in the case of the Sun Engine overheating and melting, it will not pose destructive impacts to the outside world.

This encapsulation structure is impossible for us to open now.

Let’s withdraw; there’s really nothing attractive about an iron canister sealed with all secrets.”

“But the highly efficient encapsulation itself represents it as a truly encrypted item.”

Tea-drinking Uncle rubbed his chin while observing around, saying:

“If this thing was made by the creator himself, then when we can dismantle it in the future, it’s equivalent to truly getting technologically close to the creator’s wisdom.”

“I don’t see it happening.”

Date-eating Sir said elongating his voice, with his hands folded behind:

“We can’t even figure out the architecture of this ship’s main control system. Without this whole set of intelligent control systems, merely crafting a hull is useless.

Moreover, this anti-gravity engine, high-energy matrix beneath the deck, kinetic energy neutralization field generator, and even those autonomous damage control repair machinery; considering the black tech level we’ve encountered along this journey, trying to replicate a monkey version would take decades of nationwide effort, absolutely impossible to achieve.

Oh, this technological gap really makes me feel like a primitive human unexpectedly barged into the Solvay Conference, it’s truly demoralizing.”

“Words shouldn’t be said like that.”

Marquis Ma shook his head and said:

“Throughout legends of the Sanghai People, and records of the Aztec, the creator is regarded as a true Divine Spirit, even subtly surpassing deities in status. If He achieved this through his technological prowess, then our failure to comprehend His creations is normal.

This tour wasn’t without any gains.

We’ve confirmed that none of the creator’s technologies involve the element of Spiritual Energy; this means his knowledge is applicable back home too.

This might be the primary reason for the extensive efforts in manpower and resources for inter-dimensional exploration. Black technology that cannot be reused is meaningless, but what lies before us is ‘the future’ for us! We are walking amidst the future.

Even if we don’t learn anything, it can provide us with a clear and definitive direction for planning our future.

This guidance alone is enough to save us from many wrong turns.”

“Um… would you like to see the internal structure of the Sun Engine?”

The Sanghai technology officer, who hadn’t spoken all along, gently said as he saw the foreigners preparing to leave:

“Although the shell we see can’t be dismantled, the materials used are very special. If you wish to see its internal structure, I can accommodate you.”

“Hmm?”

The big shots immediately halted their steps with expressions of anticipation, observing as the technology officer input instructions on a console within this module.

Moments later, under the infusion of specific energy, the silver-grey external protection shifted from complete closure to a two-way transparent glass-like structure, showcasing the internal construction of the Sun Engine operating at low power to the onlookers.

What met their eyes were six gear-shaped mechanical terminals, positioned at the engine’s core, with visible cosmic energy bound with distorted magnetic fields racing within, where the degree of restraint of the magnetic fields in the structure is extremely exaggerated, even bending light into peculiar rings in this region.

Reflecting in the eyes of Marquis Ma and Tea-drinking Uncle was an image akin to a brilliant black hole halo, appearing remarkably mysterious, sacred, and full of power.

No wonder the Sanghai People perceive this thing as the existence closest to the sun in the material world.

It truly is.

“We guessed it right!”

Old Horse and other big names’ gazes froze in place, staring with a dulled gaze at the internal structure and operation of the Sun Engine; after dozens of seconds, Marquis Ma suddenly rubbed his face fiercely, turning around and saying to the people beside him:
