I have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 915

Chapter 915: The Technology that Changed the War

The reinforcements from the Sectarian Guardians were undoubtedly good news for Second Army who fought at the front line, especially after learning that the Northern Alliance Area and the Helmet Tribe united together. After repeating the details of the covenant with Han Junhua, Jiang Chen ended the holographic meeting.

In the evening, Jiang Chen returned to the mansion together with Sun Jiao and Sun Xiaorou, who had finished their administration work.

When they pushed the door open, Yao Yao already brought a plentiful and delicious meal to the dining table. As for Lin Lin, she was already sitting at the table.

Responding to the joyous look of the small lolita, Jiang Chen rubbed Yao Yao’s soft hair. After he went to the bathroom and washed his hands, he returned to the table.

The baked tender red trotters glowed with a delicious shine and the tender green leaves were oozing with freshness. Yao Yao’s cooking skills improved a lot. If she was not limited by the raw ingredients, perhaps her cooking skill would be better than Ayesha’s.

The haze at the frontline did not affect the family’s dinner. After enjoying this sumptuous dinner, Jiang Chen packed up the dishes with his girls.

After Yao Yao went to bed, Jiang Chen went to the study room on the top floor of the mansion and looked at Sun Jiao waiting at the window. A smile formed on his face and he magically took out a bottle of fine wine and two wine glass and walked towards the graceful figure.

Through the reflection on the window, she noticed him when he entered the room.

However, she did not turn around, but smiled at the reflection on the glass and gently blew out a white mist.

“How did you know I was here?”

“Just thought you’d be here,” Jiang Chen walked to her and put the glass and bottle on the window sill. Then he hugged her around the waist and said, “Beautiful lady, do I have the honor to ask you for a drink?”

Sun Jiao seductively rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen and lazily leaned into his arms.

“I heard that there was a job called a bartender before the war. By mixing two different types of wine together, it brought out a lovely taste.” Playfully nibbling on Jiang Chen’s ear, she used a cute voice, “I want to drink that.”

Jiang Chen made a helpless expression. Then he took out a bottle of whiskey and a bottle of brandy from the storage dimension, and also another bottle of spirit he couldn’t name, and then placed a cocktail shaker on the window sill.

“I have only seen it before… I mean, I can try it.”

Amused by Jiang Chen’s expression, Sun Jiao grinned and gestured him to continue.

Jiang Chen poured a little from each bottle into the shaker. Then he shook the mixture a few times, poured two cups for Sun Jiao and himself, and invited her for a taste.

“Try it?”

Sun Jiao picked up the glass and took a sip. Before she had enough time to relish the taste at the tip of her tongue, the pungent alcohol taste made her cough violently.

“Cough Cough! This is not alcohol? It’s just as hot as chili water…”

“Eh? Is it” Jiang Chen glanced at his glass and didn’t have the determination to try it.

It took Sun Jiao a while to regather her breath. She rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen and put the glass back on the window sill.

Jiang Chen scratched his nose out of embarrassment, and said, coughing.

“It was just an accident. Do you want to try something else?”

“No! Just give me a cup of wine…”

The blizzard outside the window howled. Looking out from there, the lights in the base seemed to be covered by a thin vile. The two snuggled up by the window and chatted while sipping the fine wines brought from the other world. This leisure time passed slowly.

“The snow is getting bigger…” Fixating on the snow outside the window, Sun Jiao said abruptly.

“Yeah.” Jiang Chen emotionally sighed.

Sun Jiao seemed to have thought of something as she gently bit her lower lip, and hesitantly said.

“If… if one day, it is no longer suitable for people to live here—”

“By then, I will take you to the other world,” Jiang Chen interrupted Sun Jiao’s words and hugged her in his arms.

Sun Jiao’s face seldom showed a hint of weakness. She buried her head and whispered, “You won’t leave me?”

Jiang Chen laughed. “How can I leave you?”

Her lips closed and happiness appeared on her face. Although she knew his answer, she felt warm no matter how many times she listened to the response.

“Really?”

Caressing her hair and feeling her temperature, Jiang Chen solemnly said, “Of course.”

“Mhmm…”

The murmured whisper, with the chilling wind, gradually faded into the night.

…

The next morning, the snow temporarily subsided.

After waking up early, Jiang Chen got dressed and kissed Sun Jiao, who was still in her sleep. Then he went out to the community center. At the General Office, the Chief of Staff Department handed over the battle report from last night.

With coffee brought to his table, Jiang Chen carefully read through the report.

The war on the front line still continued. Last night, under the cover of darkness, the mutated humans launched a continuous and ferocious attack against multiple NAC lines of defense. Under the assault of the fearless foes, they almost tore a hole on the Second Army’s defense.

However, they ultimately failed.

The only good news was that the Hunter Corps sneaked behind a refueling Wanderer tank, mounted a tactical nuclear bomb on the bottom of the tank, ran a thousand meters away, pressed the button, and directly sent the tank into the air!

The difficult-to-replicate nature of the pre-war armor meant that every single tank destroyed meant less and less tanks. It was the first Wanderer NAC destroyed since the start of the war!

Jiang Chen made an annotation immediately below the battle report. He will award the Knight Order to the warrior and reward him with 10,000 credits.

After handling the military affairs at hand, it was still early. So, Jiang Chen came to the warehouse in the backyard of the mansion and tossed the prototype of the Stingray X-1 and the backup USB files containing relevant technical data into the storage dimension and temporarily returned to the modern world.

The asteroid capture project and the space elevator both entered their final phase. However, Celestial Trade Space Launch Center had yet to design an aircraft suitable for use in outer space. The Stingray X-1 provided by the Sectarian Guardians was a perfectly timed solution to the technical department of the Space Launch Center, which was still arguing over “propulsion or non-propulsion engine.”

Not to mention the use of high-temperature and high-pressure materials for the shell, the pulse engine used by the spacecraft was a groundbreaking technology in the modern world. Traditional jet engines were not suitable for interplanetary navigation. More advanced pulse engines were the best choice.

Jiang Chen did not expect to take the drawings to the modern world nor expect the factory in Ange Industrial Park could achieve large-scale production of the Stingray X-1. But at least with an industrial-grade 3D printer, it would be possible to replicate a few prototypes out of it.

In addition, taking the necessary technology from the Stingray X-1 and independently researching and developing transport vehicles between the Earth and Moon, it was also crucial for Celestial Trade’s planetary colonization program. Although it was now possible to rely on transport rockets to provide supplies to the Moon, the use of such low-reuse vehicles was undoubtedly an inefficient option.

After these things were done, Jiang Chen returned to the apocalypse in the evening.

However, with his front foot just stepping onto this world, good news came from Camp 27!

It was no exaggeration to say that if nothing unexpected happens, this suddenly conquered technical problem would completely change the direction of the war…
