Chapter 175: Transport It Here At The Fastest Speed Possible!
“Minister Angelo, I’ll need one of your droplets.”
Raymond directly stated his request.
“Hmm… What do you need a water droplet for?”
Angelo was very confused.
Persuading Alpha might prove difficult.
Although Angelo was the head of this entire establishment, Alpha wielded great power as well.
And he was his blood uncle.
Angelo had relied on Alpha to get to the top.
Therefore, Angelo rarely got in Alpha’s way.
“I have a plan that requires the use of the droplets.”
“This won’t be easy to pull off. We will have to persuade Director Alpha!”
“Alright, let’s go look for him!”
After saying that, Raymond and Angelo went to look for Alpha.
At that moment, Alpha did not like Raymond very much.
Raymond had let him down several times over.
He had been most eager to researching the energy cube.
Raymond had let him down.
Alpha was not in the best of moods.
When Raymond arrived, Alpha immediately turned his head away.
He was like an angry child.
“Director Alpha…”
Raymond called out, “You’re still angry!”
“Why did you come to me? You’re the world’s most powerful scientist. Do you still need my help?”
Alpha said in a fit of pique.
“Good god, could you act your age? Stop pouting like a child!”
Raymond looked at Alpha’s actions and felt mildly amused.
“Me, pouting? Hmph, you think too highly of yourself! I The actions of a fool will not affect me!”
Raymond did not intend to continue down this line. “Director Alpha, I came to look for you for something. I hope to take away a droplet…”
“A droplet? You’re asking me for an entire droplet?”
Alpha suddenly turned his head.
But then Alpha said, “If you can take it without being discovered by any entity, then you can take it with you!”
“Oh! You’ve said it!”
Raymond’s interest was immediately piqued.
Raymond knew Alpha was laying down a trap.
Without being discovered by any entity.
That meant that the United States military forces could not find out about it.
Of course, this was quite a challenge.
The United States was a fully developed country.
Even in Area 53, there were satellites flying overhead at all times.
The droplet was not exactly miniscule.
It may take on a greyish hue, but it would light up on radar like a Christmas tree all the same.
Therefore, it would be extremely difficult to avoid the detection of the satellites.
“There, I’ve said it! How about that! When I, Alpha talk when I’m drunk, my words are still from the alpha!”
Alpha looked at Raymond with his nostrils.
Raymond turned to look at Angelo, and Angelo gave a single, firm nod.
Alpha would never go back on his words.
Angelo was certain about this.
“Then watch carefully!”
Raymond was confident in his abilities.
Actually, it wasn’t that difficult to solve this problem.
Tuesday would solve all radar and satellite-related issues
The key problem was how to physically transport the droplets.
A car was out of the question.
Area 53 was very far from the sea.
The most effective way was to get more plasma engines.
Flying was the easiest way.
Moreover, Raymond could completely rely on the Gundam.
Raymond immediately gave the order.
“Tuesday, get the factory line to start producing plasma engines. Priority one. I need six of them.”
Raymond did not hide this from Angelo and Alpha.
Alpha frowned.
A moment later, he relaxed again.
“Raymond, you’re still too young! Do you think that your plasma engines are totally undetectable?” Alpha laughed contemptuously. “How naive!”
“Your engines are powerful, but where are you going to provide power over that long trip?”
“What about the satellites?”
“Moreover, your plasma engine will definitely spew out high-heat exhaust flames. Do you think the US is blind?”
“You have so much more to learn!”
Alpha did bring up a point of concern for Raymond.
The exhaust flames.
It was true that Raymond actually missed that part out.
If six engines spewed out exhaust flames at the same time, how much heat would that be?
Such heat could be detected by the US military even without using satellites.
However, in an instant, Raymond had an idea.
Spontaneous bursts.
If the engines only released a massive pulse while on the ground, the exhaust flames of the engine would only stay on the ground.
The massive pulse would be as good as an explosion that would blast them into the sky.
Above the stratosphere, combined with the condensed air in the atmosphere, it would be almost impossible to be discovered.
It seemed that this problem could be solved.
..
Not long after, Raymond received a reply from Tuesday.
“Sir, five plasma engines have already been built at the factory. They are now completed. The transport team is on their way.”
“Send them over as fast as possible!”
“Yes, Sir!”
They did not have to worry about being detected. Tuesday could directly control the flight paths of the robots.
The plasma engines would be here in no time
During this period of time, Raymond needed to do one thing.
It was to open the droplets that he needed to transport and draw the electricity out from the energy cube inside.
Otherwise, just having the engine would be useless.
“Chief Alpha, lead the way!”
Raymond made a gesture of invitation.
After all, they were going to the man’s domain, so etiquette was still in place.
“Lead the way?”
Alpha pretended not to understand.
“Director Alpha, Tuesday is already on his way. I have to make preparations in advance!”
“What’s the rush…”
“What? Director Alpha, are you not a man of your word?”
Alpha took the bait
“I’m not a man of my word? You must be joking!”
Alpha turned around and left.
Raymond raised his eyebrows and revealed a smile.
Meanwhile, Angelo looked at the two of them and shook his head helplessly before following them.
