Nexus Ascension: My Comprehension Defies the Heaven

Chapter 87: Creating Ariel Vehicle, Cosmic Energy Processor (4)

Everyone entered the elevator, and swiftly, it descended to the deepest floor within the Formation Association.

The place was huge, filled with many rooms. However, there was no one here. That was because only Werner and the people under him could access this area, as it contained all sorts of confidential records.

”The components are in the biggest room, Master,” Werner said as he pointed toward a giant door. ”I believe it should be enough for you to create what you are planning to.”

”Create?” Meiling asked curiously, her interest piqued. ”What are you creating, Grandmaster?”

”Is it a new formation, Grandmaster?” Meiying chimed in excitedly. ”I would love to learn it from you!”

”You’ll see what I’m making when I’m done with it,” Grey said with a mysterious smile.

Spoiling things too early would ruin the fun.

Opening the huge door, Grey entered the spacious room. In the corner were all sorts of components neatly packaged.

Grey casually waved his hand, and immediately the large components revealed themselves.

First of all, there was a huge chunk of refined cosmic ore that shone brightly as soon as the packaging was lifted. Right next to it were large components shaped like honeycombs which appeared to be anti-gravity thrusters, and several smaller items that looked like essential parts, including a chair and something similar to an engine.

”These are all what I managed to get from the Federation Military, Master. They are all military-grade components!” Werner said in a proud tone. ”I’m sure they’re up to your standards, Master Grey.”

”Indeed, they are exactly what I’ve been looking for,” Grey said with a satisfied smile. ”Thank you, Werner!”

”This is the least i could do.” Werner said while shaking his head.

”Alright, time to build my own AV,” Grey said with a grin.

For the past few months, aside from everything else he had been doing, he had also been studying technology. Technology was a crucial part of Blue Star, and by delving into it, he had gained a new skill through his overpowered comprehension.

[Instant Assembly]

That was the name of the skill. It allowed him to assemble technology rapidly and also helped him reengineer complex machinery. It was extremely convenient.

According to Eterna, this skill was something powerful AIs like her possessed.

Speaking of her, Eterna appeared in his vision and spoke. ”I’ll connect the AV to the Blue Star database once you are done. You can directly link the map of the world into it after that.”

”Alright,” Grey nodded. ”Thank you, Eterna.”

Eterna had been silently doing her best to help him. She had even helped him escape from the Tiger Claw gang members and safely traverse the outer rings across the southern region, which were filled with mutated beasts.

”Let’s begin,” Grey said as he clapped his hands. Immediately, the components rose into the air.

He turned slightly toward his disciple and grand-disciples and said, ”You guys might want to step back!”

They immediately complied and stepped back.

In the next instant, the cosmic ore rose into the air and began melting at an alarming rate.

Under Grey’s control through the Instant Assembly skill, the glowing liquid metal twisted and stretched, forming a long, sleek frame. The front curved down sharply, and the sides expanded into smooth, layered panels.

He then swiftly controlled the anti-gravity thrusters and sent them flying toward the formed structure of his AV. The honeycomb-like anti-gravity thrusters immediately attached themselves to the frame.

With the anti-gravity modules connected, he created several pathways within the structure and made space for the engine. He placed it inside and connected it to the anti-gravity thrusters.

The engine was the key component that held the AV together, and with it successfully installed, things became easier.

With the anti-gravity thrusters done, it was time to work on the interior.

He took the chair and placed it in the center. Immediately after, he installed the holographic units that would display information and connected them to the engine.

Then, he filled the rest of the interior with a sofa large enough for five people to sit comfortably.

Once that was complete, he installed the weaponry modules. There was an array of weapons that could be integrated with the AV, including missiles, guns, and more. They would function according to the amount of energy they received. For example, if supplied with energy equivalent to a 1st Ranker’s energy pool, they would unleash attacks just as powerful.

He swiftly installed them all, and after adding headlights, control panel and windows to the front of the AV, it was finally complete. His AV had been created.

Creating an AV was easy if you had the right components and the right skill. The Instant Assembly skill allowed him to swiftly connect wires and tighten bolts all at once, completing a process that would have taken at least five hours or more for others.

Melting cosmic ore alone usually took an hour, but with his skill, it came naturally.

However, things weren’t done yet. There was still one important step left, activating the engine. To activate an engine, one needed a processor that could distribute and regulate power to all components.

Now, AVs in particular consumed a massive amount of energy. They were known to be huge energy feeders, but they were also extremely fast. If someone escaped using an AV, not even a late-stage evolver could catch up, provided it was supplied with enough cosmic ore.

That’s right, cosmic ores. AVs needed cosmic ores to function, and they were extremely difficult to buy in bulk due to their high cost. Each one came with a steep price.

However, today, Grey was going to do something different.

He had set aside some cosmic ores. He immediately refined them into a core, then drilled his mental perception into it. Instantly, a circuit began forming within the base of the core, a circuit with an intricate pattern, extremely similar to a formation. The patterns connected seamlessly in a 360-degree arc around the core.

And finally, it was complete, the Cosmic Energy Processor.

Grey waved his hand, and the processor flew into the engine. Immediately, the air around them shifted, and a dense wave of cosmic energy rushed into the engine from all directions.

”It’s working,” Grey said, his eyes brightening.

The Cosmic Energy Processor was an upgraded version of the standard core that used cosmic ore.

He had studied the old design and created this new one, an innovation that fused both formation and technology together.

He had combined the core with a cosmic energy conversion diagram and a powerful energy-gathering array, drawing the circuit in a way that allowed it to absorb cosmic energy from the atmosphere with incredible efficiency.

The speed of absorption was so fast that if an evolver tried to do the same, they would die from energy overflow. But for an AV, it was the perfect core.

With this, he could travel indefinitely and as fast as the components he had brought would allow him to.
