Sometimes, a moment of inspiration is more important than a hundred percent effort. A problem that seems unsolvable can be resolved with just a spark of creativity, resulting in a masterpiece.
A curtain resembling clouds appeared in the air, slowly unfurling and nearly completely obscuring Zheng Yifan.
What he needed was this brief moment of cover. He gently placed his right hand on the wing of the Wooden Airplane, and a thought flickered in his mind.
Suddenly, the Wooden Airplane, which had been unable to stop moving, vanished without a trace. Its power dissipated not at all; it simply disappeared mysteriously, with the Time-Space Barrier absorbing all the impact.
The Time-Space Barrier existed outside the time and space of the Apocalyptic World, floating in endless void. It had never moved nor suffered any significant weakening, easily withstanding the force of the Wooden Airplane's fall.
The airplane settled smoothly into the Storage Space. As the curtain slowly descended, astonished gazes filled the air; there were no significant protrusions, only Zheng Yifan's silhouette emerging from the center like a tent.
Then, the tent suddenly expanded, and the entire curtain was retracted as if by magic. The curtain vanished, revealing the Wooden Airplane for the first time before them.
Meanwhile, suspended in mid-air, the unfortunate Boss Lin had yet to descend. His eyes were fixed on Zheng Yifan as if he had something to say. His body trembled violently, seemingly witnessing something terrifying.
"Whoosh!" A bolt of lightning streaked through the air, leaving behind only his terrified expression and scattered crimson fragments.
The Adamantium Shield finally returned to Zheng Yifan's left arm, untouched by blood. All the scientists ignored this scene. In their minds, that inevitable casualty paled in comparison to the Wooden Airplane before them. Their attraction to it was inversely proportional.
A dozen scientists gathered around, pointing at the plane and sharing their opinions. They had all become Superpowered Individuals and wanted their Superpowers involved in creating the Wooden Airplane.
The biggest challenge was not getting this plane back into the air but figuring out how to carry everyone along with it.
The 700-mile distance could be covered in about an hour; however, the number of people limited the plane's takeoff.
Even more daunting was that the entire aircraft seemed hastily constructed, a complete insult to the Vitality Science System.
It was merely assembled using a carpenter-like Superpower to form a whole. The Superpower allowed Zombie Crystal s to be embedded like batteries from a post-apocalyptic world into grooves.
All energy transmission occurred through ordinary material internal transfer; there were no dedicated transmission channels—like a complete framework without any internal filling.
Zheng Yifan really wanted to ask Boss Lin how he managed to create such a Wooden Airplane. Unfortunately, he would never get the chance; Boss Lin's body lay discarded on the factory floor, the blood still vivid.
"Chief, to modify this airplane, we must first disassemble it. Each component needs to be engraved with Inscription, then we must set up the energy transport lines, reinforce the exterior, and ensure the internal sealing process is completed," Ten Thousand Steps said, looking somewhat troubled.
"And most importantly, as an aircraft, it needs a navigation System and electronic controls. We haven't developed those yet. We can only use Post-Apocalypse equipment."
"You know my plane is completely wrecked, and there’s no airport nearby. The closest one is Xianren Airport across from Ancheng. But that place is a Restricted Area, entirely overrun by Zombies and beasts. No one has ever returned alive after going there!"
Ten Thousand Steps analyzed the situation thoroughly and straightforwardly informed Zheng Yifan of the most challenging aspects.
They could handle external reinforcement, internal energy transmission setup, and adding cabins. However, they needed to salvage the navigation System and electronic control System from a Post-Apocalypse aircraft. Those components were simply not available here; Zheng Yifan had to figure that out.
"Leave those tasks to me. What you need to do is quickly fix this broken wooden airplane. By the time I return, it must be transformed into a safe flying machine that can carry all of us safely," Zheng Yifan commanded firmly, locking eyes with Ten Thousand Steps and the other Superpowered Individuals.
Old Wang was indeed action-oriented; as soon as Zheng Yifan finished speaking, he began disassembling the entire Wooden Airplane.
The Wooden Airplane didn’t seem as large as what Zheng Yifan had seen at Airline, but that was in comparison to a Boeing 747.
Upon closer inspection, this plane was slightly larger than a Gulfstream private jet. The wood was made from Mutated Plants from the apocalypse; he couldn't fathom how they had managed to harvest it, but it looked solid and durable.
Its design was already quite refined; although the wooden essence was still evident, the grain patterns were clear and smooth lines flowed throughout. It mimicked the shape of Post-Apocalypse aircraft; while the angles and specific measurements weren't precise, it was a high-quality imitation.
After Old Wang disassembled it, Zheng Yifan saw large wooden blocks appearing like building blocks before him—completely unglued and without any gaps. He couldn't understand how these wooden pieces functioned or even flew. He quietly left the disassembly site, watching the nearly frantic scientists with a sense of exhilaration.
Only with such driven Fellows could scientific research truly flourish and improve the Superpower system.
Ten Thousand Steps had already begun pouring all his energy into research and development. The wooden airplane before him represented a challenge—engraving Inscription on wooden materials to create an entire aircraft.
Nearby, scientists also started their work. Several of them simultaneously placed their hands on the wooden modules that formed the airplane. Waves of Vital Energy surged forth, continuously flowing into the wooden blocks. Detailed material data was gathered as they meticulously recorded extensive information in their notebooks.
The same group of scientists compared their data and adjusted the intensity of their Superpower. Their hands slowly caressed the wooden material.
Then, something miraculous happened; the entire module began to deform in a way that was more suitable for flight. As experts in aerodynamics, they were clearly far more professional than Boss Lin.
What was even more astonishing came later, after the module had fully taken shape and its dimensions were recorded. Two other scientists brought in piles of scrap metal.
They used this scrap metal for reinforcement. The mountains of discarded metal and car parts slowly transformed into a silvery liquid, which they guided onto the module. The droplets of metallic liquid seeped into the wood as if meeting the surface of the sea. A purely wooden structure would not fare well in flight; although its weight was reduced, its inherent strength remained too fragile. It could barely function as a kite, but to traverse seven hundred miles, it would be shredded by fierce winds.
They needed to extract the essence from the metal materials to reinforce the wooden module and increase its hardness, ensuring that the surface was completely covered to prevent damage to the wooden structure in turbulent winds.
However, Boss Wang was indeed a skilled carpenter. The application of Superpower was quite adept, and the entire aircraft's Superpower operation system was remarkably complete. There was no so-called Engine; propulsion relied entirely on four wooden thrusters. Inside each thruster was a Vital Energy ejection device that generated powerful jets of Vital Energy to propel the aircraft forward.
It was an innovative approach, completing the power conversion for a Post-Apocalypse aircraft from the perspective of Superpowered Individuals.
Using Vital Energy instead of a jet engine's operational mode was a novel idea, but it had not been fully refined under his command; the flight speed was painfully slow, akin to an old ox pulling a cart.
If this concept were realized, it could achieve the flight speed of a Post-Apocalypse aircraft.
Several Scientists seemed to see the most beautiful girl in the world diving into the wooden module.
The one who worked hardest was Old Wang. He had to complete all the disassembly work. Almost every scientist had their own tasks at hand, but this was still just the basics. They needed to understand how the entire aircraft operated before redistributing their roles.
However, reinforcement could be executed first; it concerned both material and design issues. Several experts were quite familiar with this process. For appearance, they directly applied the design template of the Divine Prison Fighter from Post-Apocalypse, with data that matched perfectly. The material required complete infusion of metal into the wooden module, followed by gradual adjustments to various parameters.
Only when all values met Post-Apocalypse standards could a module be considered qualified.
The entire aircraft consisted of over seven hundred modules, and the modification process was daunting. Everyone had their roles; although it was their first time collaborating closely, everyone instinctively knew what needed to be done.
If there were any temporarily idle individuals left, it would likely just be Zheng Yifan.
Zheng Yifan needed to focus on integrating the aircraft's electrical control system and navigation system next.
He really had no idea which part was responsible for what. For him, the top priority now was to get a plane, then let those crazy Scientists dismantle it and install it into the Wooden Airplane.
As for how to install it, whether it would match, or if it could operate without Electricity—those were not his concerns. He would leave the professional matters to the professionals; all he needed to do was provide the equipment and materials.
Sneaking into a corner of the factory, Zheng Yifan stepped back into the real world. If obtaining these Systems in the Apocalyptic World was difficult, then it was much easier in the real world.
Zheng Yifan's first target was the Airline's flights. However, after a brief consideration in his mind, he abandoned that plan.
If an Airline's plane went missing for no reason, that would be serious. Moreover, everything was under surveillance; he had to think carefully about how to proceed. There were hardly any flights that were empty; 99% of them had people on board.
So, his primary target became private jets. Those private planes just sat there without moving, and the crew wouldn’t show up unless the Boss was around.
The second option was Military Aircraft. However, that would be an even bigger issue; if a country's military base had a plane stolen, it could cause a national uproar.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zheng Yifan decided to pay a visit to the Airline and take away someone else's private jet. (To be continued...)
