<h4>Chapter 788 Heavenreacher (2)</h4>


    "I''m sorry, Sir Vaan. I don''t want to question your intelligence or discredit the efforts you put into this project," Ophelia said before expressing her honest opinion, "However, it just doesn''t seem usible to me."


    "I don''t see how such a heavy object can be sent into the sea of stars if it only relies purely on the kic power inputted duringunch. It will be unable to ovee its weight and will be brought down by Pangea''s gravity."


    "Of course, if the kic power of theunch was so high that it could send the carrier into the sea of stars, I believe suchunching power would be able to y even Divine Beings."


    "I doubt any passenger will be able to survive under such pressure. No, they''ll probably die instantly uponunch if this spaceuncher had such kic power generation," Ophelia figured.


    "It''s just as you say, Lady Ophelia," Vaan calmly acknowledged her point before saying, "If the spaceuncher is only relying on pure kic energy to send people into the sea of stars, that is."


    "So, there''s more to it then?" Ophelia wondered thoughtfully.


    Vaan nodded and said, "That spaceuncher alone will not be enough to send people into the sea of stars. That''s why we are also working on creating a void tunnel system."


    "A void tunnel system?" Ophelia raised her eyebrow in interest.


    "That''s right, a void tunnel system that would generate a pir of void space between the spaceunch and the sea of stars via magic. You should have already seen the floating ck cubes above the magic tower, Lady Ophelia," Vaan mentioned.


    "In total, there will be 60,000 of them aligned between the spaceuncher and the sea of stars when the void tunnel system is online. It will create a zero-gravity vacuum space for the carriers to pass through."


    "Naturally, the carrier will not lose any travel speed gettingunched through such an environment. It''ll be like getting pushed through deep space," Vaan stated.


    "Supreme Leader, I''ve recalled that the void tunnel system waspleted recently. It just hasn''t entered the testing phase since themunication and docking systems on the other end aren''t ready yet," Lord Narvim informed.


    Of course, he didn''t see a reason not to tag along with the tour, considering he had ample knowledge of the relevant projects.


    Furthermore, the magic tower''s interior was so spacious that even dragons like him could enter without feeling cramped. After all, it was designed to amodate therge size of red dragons.


    "Oh?" Vaan uttered with surprise.


    Given the various projects the Red Dragon n was already working on, he didn''t expect the void tunnel system to bepleted so quickly.


    Lord Narvim seemed to have noticed Vaan''s thoughts. As such, he exined, "The void tunnel system is a smaller projectpared to the space station project. Lord Astarot figured the space station project''s progress would speed up if wepleted the void tunnel system project first, so we did."


    "Now, we can send even more materials into space to speed up the work on the space station project," Lord Narvim stated.


    "Using spatial storage artifacts wasn''t good enough?" Vaan asked.


    "The spatial storage artifacts are only good enough to transport small-to-medium-size materials. It won''t be able to transportrger materials required for some key parts in the space station project, Supreme Leader," Lord Narvim answered.


    Vaan furrowed his brows before mentioning, "But without the space station''s docking system, there won''t be much point inpleting the void tunnel system early."


    "Or are you saying you were all nning to y catch with 50-ton alloy shells hurling through vacuum space at speed and forceparable to Demigods?" Vaan asked.


    "Uh…" Lord Narvim opened his mouth and paused in silence before eventually nodding, "That was indeed the n, Supreme Leader. Lord Astarot intended to receive the transported items himself."


    "Just focus on the docking system first," Vaan ordered, feeling speechless.


    Although Lord Astarot was already a Demigod and could receive the carriers with his own power, it was still quite risky.


    Vaan wouldn''t want a "fuck around and find out" moment to happen and dy the space station project further than the time saved through such a risky shortcut.


    "Understood, Supreme Leader," Lord Narvim acknowledged.


    Meanwhile, Ophelia was quite startled.


    Given that Vaan''s exnations were true, it was indeed possible tounch alloy carriers into the sea of stars with kic power. Furthermore, it required far less construction material than a heavenly staircase.


    However, theplexity of magic technology and engineering involved was also a lot higher than that of the heavenly staircase.


    Where did Vaan even find all the skilled magic artificers needed to pull it off? Did he mobilize the entire Red Dragon n for that?


    The noble red dragons were indeed skilled and knowledgeable.


    However, given the timeframe and progress involved, they must be working like ves to achieve so much.


    Nevertheless, Ophelia also noticed another point. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    If the void tunnel system did work as intended, she couldn''t imagine how much mana would be required to generate such arge zero-gravity vacuum space for even a few seconds.


    "The mana consumption for maintaining the void tunnel system must be enormous, right? If this spaceuncher is intended to be used frequently, the mana consumption would be even greater. Wouldn''t the ck Rose Kingdom run out of mana quickly?" Ophelia inquired.


    "Not at all, Lady Ophelia," Vaan shook his head and said, "There''s a near-limitless amount of mana lying in the upper sky, untapped until now. However, it will be used to support everything in this country, ranging from the void tunnel system to the witches'' daily needs."


    "And how do you intend to harvest all that mana in suchrge quantity, Sir Vaan?" Ophelia asked.


    Vaan''s bold im had attracted her strong curiosity.


    "That''s what therge magic tower is for; it''s not just a spaceuncher. Actually, the void tunnel system is only one part of a dual system," Vaan casually exined.


    "When the void tunnel system is offline, the mana gathering system will be activated to channel the abundant mana from the upper sky into the magic tower''s core mana storage."


    "During this process, the void tunnel system will be recharged to maintain its functions," Vaan stated.


    After Ophelia finally saw the full picture, she was greatly amazed.


    The entire project had been thoroughly nned, and there didn''t seem to be a single w in it.


    She couldn''t help but look forward to the day of its fullpletion.


    "Does this future wonder have a name?"


    "Heavenreacher."
