“What a shame!” Han Tianyu sighed heavily .
Han Tianyu saw things very much differently than other muscle heads . Before he was a fighter, he was a businessman with ties to politicians . The way Han Tianyu saw things was much further than an ordinary fighter . The purpose of this attack was to find evidence of nuclear weapons development by the Japanese . If they had solid evidence, Han Tianyu, and China, the nation itself could strike against Japan . With evidence int hand, not even the Americans could help them .
Now that there was not a single shred of evidence, they could do nothing but let the Japanese walk away scot-free . Everything had come to an end even though there were many things that were not solved . With a heavy heart, Han Tianyu ordered his troops to retreat and send the martial artist back to China .
“Brother Fei, we will head back now . Thanks to you, we have killed two high ranking Jounins as well as captured Matsuda Yoshino . We will inform the Martial Arts Alliance about your deeds . I’m sure you’ll rack up a good number of contributions,” said Luo Zhan as he cupped his fist and saluted Jiang Fei .
Jiang Fei did the same and bowed to him, saying, “I am but not worthy of your praise . I’m glad to be of us!”
To be truthful, Jiang Fei was excited about the contribution points . He had originally planned to trade those points with his miracle potion .
After everyone went their own way, Jiang Fei was sent home . His mother did ask about his absence and Jiang Fei just brushed it off saying that the social event had just ended . When his mother tried to ask more, Jiang Fei dragged his feet across the hall and said he was tired .
“0541,” said Jiang Fei quietly as he summoned 0541 .
The ten or more hours’ journey back to China was long and brutal . However, it was just in time for the ring to finish its repairing status . However, as he was in the middle of the sea with the rest of the lads, he could not be seen talking to himself . Even though he had his own room on the ship, Jiang Fei decided to only talk to 0541 when he was back at home .
“Captain, 0541 is ready for your orders!” 0541’s voice rang inside Jiang Fei’s mind .
“How are the repairs?”
“Due to sufficient energy, the restoration to the main body has reached 20% . ”
“Only twenty?!” Jiang Fei was unsatisfied . After all, he had stormed across the ocean to fight ninjas but he was only rewarded with a 20% restoration progress?
“Sir, the energy absorption was complete and sufficient for main body restoration . However, the main body still requires physical materials as well as digital information!”
“Don’t tell me this . What do you need? For real!” Jiang Fei rolled his eyes . Even though the ring was given a voice, it was still playing the guessing game with Jiang Fei .
“Currently, the priority would be a larger amount of digital information . Based on your current situation, the best route is by using the in-game equipment!”
“Fine . ”
Jiang Fei nodded . Sacrificing in-game equipment was nothing but a small demand .
“Oh right, did you said something would happen after restoration? What use could you be to me?” asked Jiang Fei . He had spent so much time and effort on the ring and naturally, he wanted something in return .
“Sir,” said 0541 straightforwardly . “I am now able to turn on search mode and had detected the signal for Braveheart’s fragment within 3,000 kilometers . ”
“Do tell, what did you find?”
“Sir, I have found more than one fragment within my search radius,” said 0541 .
“Hmm?” Jiang Fei interest piqued almost instantly as he stood up from his bed .
“Which one is the closest?” said Jiang Fei .
“It’s just right there sir . Under your feet! To be specific, 170 meters under your feet!”
“Below Manda Square?! That should be Han Tianyu’s secret laboratory!” Jiang Fei immediately rolled his eyes . What was Han Tianyu doing with an alien ship fragment?
“Sir, I have detected numerous human activity from around the ship fragment . ”
“Could you identify which part of the ship that Han Tianyu has in possession?”
“Sir, it is the Combat Entertainment System . ”
“What is that?”
“It is similar to what humans would call a gaming center . Its purpose is to provide entertainment to the ship crew as well as providing training simulations to combat crew . The game itself has many kinds of weapons data and blueprint!” 0541 explained .
“I see now,” Jiang Fei said . No wonder Manda Group was so successful back then . They were able to extract information from the ship’s databank and use them . Although they still lack the technology and means of production, they had still managed to use something from it . It was only but the tip of the iceberg . There were still much information hidden not decoded and was unable to be used .
“What of the other fragments? Where’s the next one?” asked Jiang Fei . Even though the ship fragment was supposed to be taken in, Jiang Fei did not mind having Han Tianyu hold it for a little longer . Sooner or later, he would eventually get it back . One way or another .
Currently, Jiang Fei had no intention to create an army nor did he have the capability to turn any of the information in hand into the real thing . He would still need the production segment of the ship . At the meantime, Jiang Fei would allow Manda Group to continue extracting information out of that ship fragment . In a way, Jiang Fei was helping Manda Group as well as China to grow stronger .
“According to the scan results, the Zhang Family is holding part of the ship that is the soldier’s armory in their own weapon’s storage . ”
“I see that,” Jiang Fei said . Unlike Han Tianyu’s, the Zhang Family had obtained physical items instead of information . Based on Earth’s current technology, Han Tianyu had managed to recreate a simplified version of battleships and aircraft carrier . The Zhang Family had it harder since they could not reverse engineer a weapon as easily as merely extracting information . To put in perspective, Han Tianyu had obtained the Recipe for a cake, whilst the Zhang Family had only a piece of the cake itself . To reverse engineer a finished product would not be easy as having the blueprint itself . Jiang Fei felt like congratulating the Zhang Family for being able to recreate the laser gun from their research .
After the Zhang Family, 0541 continued to report its finding and the location of the other ship fragments . The problem was that none of them was the R&D Laboratory . Concurrently, the largest ship fragment was with Han Tianyu while the smallest fragment was merely a small toy machine, which the original captain had bought for his child .
“There are so many that you have found, but how is it that none of them is useful?” said Jiang Fei as he furrowed his eyebrows .
According to 0541’s diagnosis, Jiang Fei was required to find the main engine compartment, the weapons R&D laboratory, as well as other manufacturing segments . In layman terms, Jiang Fei needed to find the power source first, the databank laboratory second, and the manufacturing factory third and last .
There was something about the ship’s main cannons but that did not interest Jiang Fei at the moment . That could be collected some other days .
“Tsk, when I have the time, I would have to visit the Pacific Ocean!”
Braveheart’s ship fragments were all over the world . Smaller fragments could be ignored since most of them were possessed by the family of the same name . With Jiang Fei’s current strength, Jiang Fei could not even approach the family to reclaim the ship fragment . Hence, his current target should be the larger fragments that were scattered all over the Pacific Ocean .
