Chapter 302 Recruitment from the Awakening Lion

The Human Empire once possessed the technology to manufacture jet motorcycles. When Fu Qinghai first arrived in the Warhammer 40K universe, the "Levante Cyclone-V" jet motorcycle driven by Fei was the first jet motorcycle Fu Qinghai had ever come into contact with.

It was a civilian model jetbike, operable only within atmosphere, and the Hive World of Levant had been destroyed, like so many other worlds, during the Horus Heresy.

Military-type jetbikes, such as the "Scimitar" jetbike commonly used by Space Marines in the 30K era, and the "Bull" jetbike unique to the White Scars Primarch's Guards Jin Qiexue, can all be driven in a space environment.

By the 41K era, jet bikes had become a kind of "relic technology", with only the Dark Angels Chapter retaining the last jet bike. But it's not a pity, because other flying vehicles of Space Marines can replace the functions of jet bikes to a certain extent, such as the Storm Crow, Storm Falcon, Storm Talon, a series of small gunboats and interceptors.

If Fu Qinghai were to write and formulate the industry technical standards for the product item "jet motorcycle", he would mainly divide it into three technical stages:

Stage 1: jet power.

The civilian jet motorcycles in the Warhammer 40K universe and the first generation flying motorcycles in the main Marvel universe all belong to this stage. Both use "turbine/turbofan" as the power source for floating and moving forward. In essence, they are the technology of jet fighters that has been miniaturized and specialized and applied to motorcycles.

Stage 2: Plasma propulsion.

As Tony Stark integrated the propulsion technology of his armor into the related vehicles of the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D., the Quinjet, flying motorcycle, flying car, helicarrier, etc., all began to use the "Ark Reactor" as a new nuclear fusion energy and plasma propulsion technology.

The third generation flying motorcycle used by the Avengers, the compact plasma engine provides greater thrust than the original turbine/turbofan engine. The new propulsion technology can also more effectively use the deflector to guide the thrust, change direction and altitude. The side and bottom exhaust ports allow less waste heat and noise during operation, provide advantages in stealth operations, and increase maneuverability. Voice commands replace the pre-programmed flight options in previous generations of models, and the autopilot function is more robust.

The "Scimitar" and "Bull" jetbikes used by Space Marines are also plasma-propelled.

Compared with the previous two stages, the core difference lies in whether they can operate in a space environment. All engines based on turbines/turbofans or winglets cannot operate in a vacuum environment. Air is an indispensable combustion gas and propulsion medium. Plasma propulsion technology does not rely on air and can be said to be one of the threshold technologies for space travel.

Fu Qinghai's opinion on these two technologies is:

only children make choices, as adults I want them all.

Plasma propulsion technology has strong explosive power, high speed, and is independent of air, but it has one fatal flaw: extremely high energy consumption.

Plasma is used as both a fuel energy source and a propulsion medium. Nuclear fusion reactors cannot withstand this level of energy consumption rate. It is okay when installed on large warships, but when installed on small vehicles such as flying backpacks and flying motorcycles, the cruising range becomes a big problem.

The design concept of Fu Qinghai's flying backpack is very advanced: it uses the dual-turbofan cruise mode when traveling, and uses the plasma afterburner burst mode when fighting. It can be used in both space and atmospheric environments.

After analyzing the first two stages, what remains is:

the third stage: anti-gravity technology.

The representative products are the various flying motorcycles in the Star Wars universe, which can also be called flying motorcycles. These flying motorcycles use anti-gravity technology for suspension and turbine/turbofan technology for propulsion, with low energy consumption and high speed.

The Warhammer 40K universe has always had anti-gravity technology, but the anti-gravity technology of the human empire is really hard to describe. There is no problem using it on small gadgets like the servo-skull, but if you want to use it on large vehicles such as motorcycles, tanks, and gunboats, and create hover tanks similar to those in the Star Wars universe... then you can, but you have to wait until the second technological revolution of Belisarius Cawl begins before it can be realized.

In order to complement his Primaris Space Marines, Cawl converted all armored vehicles such as the Land Raider and the Rhino into versions without tracks and wheels and with anti-gravity suspension.

Therefore, when evaluating the technological level of the Human Empire, we must look at it in conjunction with the timeline. The technological level of the entire Human Empire should be a "U"-shaped smile curve on the timeline, which began to decline from 30K, becoming more and more lost and more and more backward. In the 41K era, the Great Sage Cawl launched a second technological renaissance, invented many new technologies, revived many relic technologies, and the overall technological strength was improved again.

It is ridiculous to simply and crudely evaluate the technological level of the Human Empire as "advanced" or "backward".

As an expert in the field of motorcycle driving - White Scar, Fu Qinghai has formulated the industry technical standards for "jet motorcycles", and naturally began to evaluate the relevant parameters and development value of the "Flying Motorcycle Second Generation (TR Class)" in front of him.

Still very valuable.

Because at this stage, no Forge World can manufacture jet bikes. Even if it cannot reach the level of the flying bikes in the Star Wars universe, simply restoring the original jet bikes of the Human Empire is also excellent.

The summary is complete.

"Shi Lan, it's time to work!"

Fu Qinghai shouted while sitting on the sofa.

The space ape swaggered back across the balcony.

He wears a cashew flower fisherman's hat, a pair of big sunglasses on his monkey face, a tropical Cuban short-sleeved floral shirt and big shorts, and a pair of flip-flops. He holds a fur coconut in one hand and slurps the straw in his mouth.

Life in another world is so pleasant.

As for where do coconuts come from in Texas?

As long as you have money, it's not a problem.

"You research the flying motorcycle, and I research the bat serum. We have a clear division of labor and we can report progress to each other. How do you think?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

"Can."

Shi Lan nodded.

They got down to work right away. One man and one monkey each took a computer and started by reading the materials.

…

Hong Kong, top floor of International Commerce Centre, Kowloon.

Yang Hengyao, wearing a modified version of the robe, which combines the elegance of the ancient style with the convenience of the modern style, and carrying a huge sword wrapped in a cloth strip on his back, stood quietly in the restaurant of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows at the undulating Victoria Harbor and the brightly lit yachts and ships below.

Yang Hengyao, the founder of the Lion Dance, the head of the society, nicknamed "Sword Master", has also come to the main Marvel Universe.

The world in which he made his fortune is the beginning and origin of Chinese fantasy novels - the Shushan Swordsman Universe.

Yang Hengyao looks like a traditional Chinese handsome man in his early thirties, with long hair tied up, majestic yet handsome. No one knows his actual age. Longevity is the most basic ability for a reincarnation who practices Taoism.

"Have you finished reading it?"

A smiling voice came from behind.

A beautiful woman in a slim-fitting robe walked over. The hem of her robe rose up with her steps. The design of the left and right lapels and the stand-up collar had a certain Chinese style.

Although it comes from the Marvel Universe, the Sorcerer Supreme school is authentic Chinese magic. Ancient One was a Tibetan farmer before becoming the Sorcerer Supreme.

"After watching it, the night view of Victoria Harbour is indeed as dazzling and brilliant as the rumors say. It is worthy of being one of the three major night views in the world."

Yang Hengyao stood with his hands behind his back and spoke calmly.

Chen Xinxue chuckled:

"I'm not asking you if you've finished watching the night scene, I'm asking you if you've finished watching the video."

Yang Hengyao turned around helplessly, looked at the woman behind him, and said with a wry smile:

"Xinxue, we have known each other for many years. Why do you have to bring up those things to embarrass me?"

A potential newcomer who has recently emerged in the Lion Dance Society and a key training target of the society's top management is actually an undercover spy planted by Perfect Humanity... If this kind of thing gets out, everyone will be ashamed.

"Will the Awakening Lion continue to go to war with the Garden of Thorns?"

Chen Xinxue asked with a smile.

"Haha, the people below are open-minded, don't mind it."

Yang Hengyao laughed and then said seriously:

"Ran Jianian is already dead. Even if he has reincarnation, the subsequent hunting and killing work will be handed over to other gangs. What I care about now is not Ran Jianian, but another person."

Yang Hengyao stared at Chen Xinxue's eyes:

"You know who I'm talking about."

Chen Xinxue smiled and said:

"I know, but I tell you clearly that he already has his own reincarnation society."

Yang Hengyao waved his hand:

"It's not a big deal to have a Samsara Club. The club can withdraw and disband. As long as he is willing to join the Lion Dance, and we recognize his character and ability after evaluation, then everything will be fine."

Yang Hengyao casually called over the waiter who was serving wine, took a glass of champagne from the tray, and without waiting for Chen Xinxue to answer, he continued:

"Xinxue, you know that I, Yang Hengyao, like making friends the most. I don't necessarily want him to join the Lion Dance. We Lion Dance haven't fallen to that level yet. I just think that this guy can turn the perfect human race upside down. I think he is a hero. It's not a bad idea to make friends with him."

Yang Hengyao raised his glass towards Chen Xinxue:

"Since you know Xinxue, how about you introduce her to me as a friend of a friend?"

Chen Xinxue thought for a moment and said:

"I can tell him what you mean, that Boss Yang is eager to recruit talented people, and hope he can choose the right tree to live in? The rest is up to him to decide, and I can't interfere."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Chen Xinxue's tone.

"It's a deal."

Yang Hengyao didn't care at all about the teasing in Chen Xinxue's words, he raised his glass and spoke seriously.

Yang Hengyao and Chen Xinxue knew each other because many years ago Yang Hengyao once wanted to recruit Chen Xinxue to join the Lion Dance Troupe, but was rejected by the latter on the grounds that she was unwilling to accept any constraints. In fact, she felt that there were too many and too complicated factions within the Lion Dance Troupe and she did not want to get involved in the muddy water.

Later, Chen Xinlu and Chen Xinxue had a conflict and wanted to quit the club. Some female reincarnations of the Lion Dance secretly mocked Chen Xinlu for being a femme fatale, which made Chen Xinxue very angry.

The Zero Realm Guild knows that it calls on its spellcasters to major in arcane and nature, and the Awakening Lion is also aware of the problems caused by worldview suppression, so Yang Hengyao has been seeking diversified development and actively introducing players from other genres besides fairy tales, fantasy, and martial arts.

This is one of the reasons why Yang Hengyao is interested in people like Ran Jianian and Fu Qinghai. Science fiction IP has always been a weak point in the Chinese cultural circle, even if it is just space opera. China once had a golden age of science fiction literature, with various short stories emerging one after another. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, science fiction literature gradually declined.

It's still the most important reason: the reincarnations on the technological side are almost not suppressed by any worldview.

"By the way, he also helped you eliminate a traitor. Shouldn't you thank him?"

Chen Xinxue took a sip of champagne and said.

Yang Hengyao said calmly,

"Let's put it this way. He killed a whole team of our people. I, Yang Hengyao, have always been clear about what I do. Recruiting is one thing, killing is another."

"Hey, Lao Yang."

Chen Xinxue couldn't bear to listen any longer and reminded:

"It was your people who started it first."

Yang Hengyao nodded and said:

"I know, so I didn't classify this as a social conflict. The Lion Dance has its own rules, and they will not be arbitrarily rewarding and punishing. Don't worry, when the bounty is issued, he will definitely get his share."

Having said that, Yang Hengyao looked at Chen Xinxue meaningfully, causing Chen Xinxue's face to slightly blush.

Chen Xinxue seemed to be interested in that "Qingshan".

Yang Hengyao pondered secretly in his heart.

This further strengthened his determination to recruit Qingshan.

Chinese people are well versed in the art of forming alliances and making coalitions. It is not necessary for Chen Xinxue to join the lion dance. Through the relationship with Qingshan, she can also be tied to the lion dance chariot.

Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
