Super Island Tycoon

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: ’Transformer’ Flying Car!

The next day.

The sky was clear, with not a cloud in sight.

After Jiang Cheng had breakfast, he jogged a couple of laps on the beach in front of the villa and then arrived at a vacant lot nearby.

At this time, he opened his phone, pulled up the Island Tycoon APP’s construction system, and began to browse carefully.

As his fingers swiped, various types of infrastructure, skyscrapers, super factories, and future engineering 3D models flashed before his eyes like a slideshow.

Every time he saw these technologically advanced super projects, Jiang Cheng couldn’t help but feel a longing, wishing he could build them all in one go to create the future city in his mind. However, he also understood that this would take time and was not something that could be achieved overnight.

So, suppressing his excitement, he continued to browse until his fingers were somewhat sore before he stopped.

At this point, a uniquely styled car model appeared in Jiang Cheng’s view. It was about the size of a regular car but had four smaller wheels and a pair of foldable gull-wing doors, a sleek, technologically advanced body, and a dazzling deep black paint job, giving it a substantial metallic feel.

If there were one word to describe it, it would be ”cool and fancy”!

Jiang Cheng glanced at the top of the car’s 3D model, where its relevant information was displayed.

Name: ’Transformer’ Flying Car

Type: For water, land, and air

Maximum Speed: 180km/h

Maximum Range: 2000km

Cost: 800,000 USD

Time Required: None

Evaluation: The first-generation ”concept-level” flying car, a test model of the ”TSL-X” aircraft. The Transformer flying car can take off vertically without a runway, has a spacious interior, and is comfortable to ride, which makes it a future transportation solution.

At this point, Jiang Cheng’s eyes turned into searchlights, shining brightly!

”This is definitely system black technology!”

No obstacles on water or road!

Fast-moving!

These are the main features of the Transformer flying car. With it, Jiang Cheng finds it very convenient to explore both the sky and the sea, which will greatly help him survey Jade Island.

Although it’s possible to generate a 3D model of the island using the system’s auxiliary planning function, Jiang Cheng feels that some things are better done personally, at least it allows him to have a clear understanding of his islands.

Moreover, he has always had some grand and creative plans that can only be implemented after fully understanding Jade Island.

After considering all aspects, Jiang Cheng decided to conduct a personal survey.

Deciding to act right away, Jiang Cheng extended a finger and directly pointed at the Transformer flying car’s model. A water ripple-like light wave appeared, followed by a striking prompt box and the mechanical prompt sound of the system.

Beep...

”The Transformer flying car is a product included with the system. It can be produced without a factory or time required. The cost is 800,000 USD. Would you like to produce it?”

”Yes!”

Without any hesitation, Jiang Cheng decisively answered.

Spending 800,000 USD on a car might seem expensive, but it’s important to know that the Transformer is not an ordinary car; it’s a combination of a car, yacht, and private jet, usable for water, land, and air, fast and convenient, which is very worthwhile for Jiang Cheng, who currently lacks transportation means.

Clack clack...

As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp mechanical assembly sound rang out.

Jiang Cheng’s eyes became sharp, staring straight at the open space in front of him.

Indeed, a magical scene appeared!

Circles of dazzling blue light rings appeared out of thin air, with dense data light points flashing continuously and rapidly converging toward the center, instantly transforming into an imposing luxury convertible!

Brand new, cool deep black paint, a sleek, high-tech body, and foldable gull-wing doors made it look like a fierce raptor ready to soar, captivating!

TSL-X, Transformer!

”I’ll call you Hai!”

Jiang Cheng smiled contentedly at the luxury ride in front of him and casually gave it a name.

The next moment, he took a stride, opened the car door, and sat inside.

The driving method of the flying car is similar to modern cars, except for two special functions, one is super acceleration, and the other is flying.

For the experienced driver Jiang Cheng, driving a flying car wasn’t very difficult. It didn’t take him long to fully grasp how to operate Hai.

Press the switch!

Instruments self-check!

Deploy the ailerons!

Start the engine!

Increase the throttle!

Pull up the control stick!

Turn the rudder!

With a series of dazzling operations with his hands on both sides, Hai roared and slowly took off.

As the altitude continued to rise, Jiang Cheng’s view widened immediately. The distant blue sea, golden beach, white waves, and green peaks, all these beautiful sights were captured in his eyes.

Awww~~

Feeling the limitless beauty before him, Jiang Cheng involuntarily let out a cheer, this feeling of flying was simply too exhilarating!

In his excitement, Jiang Cheng suddenly extended a finger and directly pressed the super acceleration button!

Vroom vroom...

Immediately, Hai emitted a series of loud roars, shooting a stream of dazzling blue flames from its tail, and then soared high, riding on the sea breeze.

...

In the subsequent days, Jiang Cheng completely transformed into a diligent little bee, busy on Jade Island, driving Hai over mountains and lakes, being everywhere. Almost every day, he left early and returned late. Thanks to the convenience of Hai, within a few days, his footprints covered the entire island.

Then, combined with the system-provided information on geology, hydrology, climate, etc., Jiang Cheng figured out the basic situation of Jade Island, even naming the main offshore islets, peaks, lakes, rivers, bays, beaches, and other geographical units, eventually creating a comprehensive map of Jade Island.

Additionally, through these days of surveying, Jiang Cheng gained a deeper understanding of his Jade Island.

...

In fact, Jade Island is not merely a solitary island.

Nearby, there are 12 offshore islets, the largest of which, Ivory Island, covers 15 square kilometers, while the smallest, Octopus Island, is only 0.3 square kilometers.

These assorted islets are scattered like a chain to the southwest of Jade Island. From a high altitude, they resemble a string of emerald pearls.

The main Jade Island is a typical volcanic island formed by submarine volcanic eruptions. With as many as seventy dormant volcanoes to the north, its terrain is unique and scenery stunning.

Jade Island’s geographic location is special, situated at the edge of the Western Pacific, being 880 nautical miles from the Hachimantai Island base, 1120 nautical miles from Subic Bay Port, and 1750 nautical miles from Taro Island.

The three bases, forming a strategic triangle, enclose Jade Island at its center, which has been a source of headache for Jiang Cheng.
