Chapter 445: Preparations Before Exploration
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When the battle was over, the group escorted the captured evolvers back. Wesley flew the Destroyer while telling Raven what to do next. The follow-up was just some publicity for the X-Men, which could not be missed. It just so happened that the X-Men saved the world.
Wesley sent them back and left with Deadpool. Victor stayed behind, as if he was tired of his old life and Deadpool preferred to follow Wesley.
The two of them went to the dam first. Wesley took all the Adamantium here and then returned directly to the general lab. Now it was the final step.
“How fast can a flying shuttle reach?” After Wesley returned, he plunged into the laboratory. He had now begun to cast a flying shuttle with alloy, designed to travel through parallel universes. It still needed to be fitted with detection equipment.
“The design of the flying shuttle can be simpler. Apart from installing the necessary equipment, we don’t carry fuel and are completely powered by the space gem. In this way, the weight and space are saved a lot. With the high-speed jet engine at the same time, we can reach the speed of about Mach 12, but this is not enough for you to cross. Finally, you need the energy of the space gem to open the space barrier.”
“Then let’s do it quickly. I’ll leave the alien design to you.”
“Sure.” Wesley and Apple began to get busy. First was the shape of the flying shuttle. They were flying on Earth, so they needed to reduce the design of air resistance. Flying at high speed required a stable balance. At the same time, there could not be a large-scale vibration inside the flying shuttle, or the equipment damage would be impossible to record.
The first transmigration was an attempt to focus on the things that needed to be recorded in the transmigration. Wesley did not know anything about this at all. Now, he had to make more preparations. After completing the transmigration, he could reduce it according to the situation and remove some unnecessary equipment. When the time came, the flying shuttle could be perfected again.
For several days, Wesley had been working on building the shuttle. The shape had been determined. The shape of the streamline, with balanced wings on both sides near the tail, was not very long. Otherwise, it would affect the speed. There was a large propeller at the tail with equipment inside. The equipment was not very large. Wesley tried to make it as small as possible. The entire shuttle was still somewhat flat, which minimized the drag.
After completing the manufacturing, Wesley put it into his internal space and then went to the no man’s land to conduct experiments. The flying shuttle could record speed, distance, surrounding energy fluctuations, the size of the forward resistance, and many other things. After testing, Wesley again made a simple adjustment so that the flying shuttle would be at its best.
“We don’t have enough alloy to make two shuttles. Once they are damaged after crossing, there will be no spares,” Apple said after the experiment.
“Then we’ll have to make two more alloys in case of emergencies. It’s unknown whether we can come back from this transmigration. Before we leave, I still need to tell them that if we can’t come back, we’ll have to say goodbye to Force. There are still a few evolvers who haven’t gotten their samples.”
“Do we continue the experiment?”
“Let them continue. If we come back, we will bring back a lot of new data. They had better be ready all the time. If they don’t come back, it will be their choice.”
Wesley returned to New York headquarters, then called Carlos and Mindy over and handed everything about the group to them. Then he said, “I’m going to conduct a new experiment. The process is a little long. It’s time for you to start managing the company. What I left behind is enough for you to use for a long time, but you need to have your own ideas. You can try it slowly first.”
“How long are you going to do the experiment? The experiment doesn’t affect the management group, right?” Carlos didn’t understand Wesley’s thoughts.
“Don’t ask about this. The experiment is very dangerous. This is my pursuit. You just need to let the comprehensive laboratory continue the research. You don’t have to worry about anything else. The group is officially given to you now.”
After handing over the group’s work, Wesley went to X-Men headquarters. Now that public opinion was once again in the X-Men’s favor, Wesley went straight to Charles. “Charles, I’m going to be away for a while. The exact date of my return is uncertain. I may never come back. You’ll still have to rely on yourselves in the future.”
“Leave?” Charles looked at Wesley in confusion.
“Yes, leave. Don’t ask too much about the details. You just need to know that you need to rely on yourselves. I have always taken a laissez-faire attitude towards your development, which is to let you get familiar with it. Now it’s almost time. You need to play a bigger role. Work hard. I have Deadpool’s contact information here. If you need it, you can contact him. He is usually responsible for guarding one of my laboratories.”
Deadpool and Phantom were now in charge of Wesley’s lab, keeping it safe, so Wesley could safely travel through it. After everything was said and done, he left with the three shuttles and headed for No Man’s Land again.
“Apple, record the coordinates here. Make it more accurate. Then mark four directions. We will choose a direction to cross.” Wes used some separate equipment to start recording the coordinates. G Group’s satellite calculated his current position with all its might and accurately marked four directions. “This satellite begins to operate in sync with the earth and records everything that happens here. The satellite covers all traces and makes this satellite disappear in space.”
“Understood. This satellite is the most advanced one, unless someone uses an astronomical telescope to look at it, but even if they see it, they may not understand it,” said Apple.
“Good, everything is ready. Let’s choose directly to the east. These directions can give me some good luck.” Wesley took out the flying shuttle and adjusted the direction. Then he put on a space suit. After all, parallel worlds are unknown places, and he had to be careful.
The shuttle began to charge, followed by a self-examination of the best equipment. Everything was ready. “Hu…” Wesley took a deep breath himself. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to cross over. It would be a lie to say that he was not nervous.
The engine started and the shuttle began to rise. Then it advanced. The thrusters began to increase the output. The speed of the shuttle became faster and faster, directly breaking the sound barrier, and then it continued to increase its speed.
There were some slight vibrations. The structure of the flying shuttle was very strong. The speed of Mach 10 was still only a slight vibration, followed by a final acceleration sprint. The shaking began to be some distance away. The equipment in the flying shuttle kept recording everything, and the maximum speed was achieved.
