Tempest of the Stellar War

Chapter 827: Super box

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Information communication at the mature stage of the Interstellar Voyage era was naturally very rapid. However as the region was truly too broad and the information being too voluminous, other than some mainstream Federation level or Milky Alliance news, most of the news would only stay within the surrounding star region.

Any piece of news that could spread throughout the main countries of Milky Way Alliance in a short period of time would mean that was a big incident!

If it was commercial news, one needed to pay even more information to it.

In the past when KING Company was successful in the Spatial project, the truth was the news just touched on it. The coverage on it also wasn’t big. This was because even if it could be transferred for civilian use, what would it be used on? It was also unknown how far it could be applied.

The general consensus was that it would at most be applicable on warships travelling at warp speed for some transfers. Truthfully speaking, this was probably some strategic requirements for the upper management oin the military. It was also for reserves purposes.

However when this project of OMG was out, the truth was that any independent Federation with stationed troops would have their eyes on it.

An additional equipment for mech warriors.

This wasn’t a very new thinking. Some high end supportive mecha would most likely equip another supportive system. However, it was proven in practical trials that it would affect battle prowess. It would most likely appear against the Zerg or in battle with relatively smaller skirmishes.

Wang Zheng had told Ye Zisu about the principle of Old Zhuo’s device in the Abyss. At that time, Ye Zisu had still rejected the proposal. This was because that type of flying device was streamline at all. After equipping, the mech, they would tend to become quite bulky. It was still viable against the Zerg but would be useless in battles between mecha. It was especially so as that type of device might only be suitable in the Abyss and couldn’t even withstand a blow from the Zerg outside the Abyss.

At the same time, the core technology of that device itself wasn’t difficult at all. From an economic point of view, the value was truly not high. However the idea of design had greatly stimulated Ye Zisu.

All along, Ye Zisu and Xiao Fei had been having headaches about the transfer of the spatial technology. The returns from its application on warships were too low. From an academic point of view, the breakthrough was very big and had laid the foundation in many different aspects. To put it simply, if it couldn’t provide better returns, it would not match the expectations.

Moreover, with the intervention of the Solar System Federation, they had sacrificed a portion of it in exchange for support politically. This was also an inevitable process.

However Wang Zheng’s thoughts had given Ye Zisu an inspiration. Ye Zisu had never taken the conventional road. Her way of thinking was intrinsically different from traditional mecha designers. She dared to dream and dared to break the shackles of traditions. This was where she was similar to Xiao Fei. Naturally, they had received some assistance from the Genesis Coffee Club in this process. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be so successful.

A new model of mecha equipment was born and was known simply as the CPD. It was a type of consumable mecha equipment. Its size wasn’t large and the consumption wasn’t great but what it could provide was a short distance space warp.

On the battlefield, such a warp might mean one life. Moreover, this wouldn’t need the support of Ability X. Any mech warriors would be able to use it.

After usage, it could be unequipped and discarded or be replenished for further use. However, it could be used three to five times only, This was mainly because of the wear and tear on the system during the warping process and the consumption to the Super Gravity Energy Mineral ore. These was something that couldn’t be replenished.

One could say that OMG had gotten free from the norm, broken the monopoly and had truly label themselves on this unique and key technological revolution. Truthfully speaking, Ye Zisu wasn’t very confident about it too. After all, it was additional equipment to the mecha. One should know that the current focus was to reduce the load on mecha. At the same time, based on different models, the design would be different. This would mean that it had to be custom built for each model. Those things that couldn’t be commonly used would be even harder to sell.

Ye Zisu still had some confidence within her. However, the thing about business was that it didn’t mean it would be fine with just confidence. Therefore, they had made use of the exposure of OMG this time and launched the product. This would be equivalent to saving a large sum of promotional expenses. If the Chronos knew about this, they would probably be really pissed off.

However, one had to admit that with the influence of OMG now, the promotional and publicity this time had truly been the largest.

Typically, once this type of technology was launched, the market would usually be divided. They would either be interested or not. Ye Zisu was also waiting for the feedback from the market. A few hours had passed but why didn’t the marketing department respond yet?

Could it be that there were no one interested?

It shouldn’t be that bad right?

She really felt that this was a good thing. The only flaw was that the cost of manufacturing was a little high. Otherwise, it would be the fact that the consumption would be was rather fast. However, there was no way around it. She had considered the size of it and the consumption. This was the best choice. She didn’t design it this way to sell more of it.

As a designer, Ye Zisu felt that this design was definitely the best. It was just that it would be better if the price was lower as this was the only obstacle to the development of this project. However, OMG had already made the decision to launch part of the trial products. Once one used it, one would definitely feel that it would be value for money.

Thinking of this, Ye Zisu suddenly become more firm. At this time, the head of marketing, Luo Jianghe stumbled in.

Ye Zisu smiled faintly and asked, “What’s the matter? Why are you in such a panic.”

“Missy, something big has happened...”

“Calm down uncle Luo. We have been through violent storms and waves.” Ye Zisu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. What big things could have happened? The Ye Family could be considered to have just returned from the edge of death. There’s already nothing that could surprise Ye Zisu.

“Our marketing system has undergone an attack and is now paralyzed.” Luo Jianghe had a serious look on him. He had also been in OMG for a long time. In the past, things were smooth. Although there weren’t any big moves, he was guaranteed good rewards no matter the circumstances. He might be well known now but Luo Jianghe was facing layers and layers of stress. He was afraid of not being able to do his job well. However, the more he was afraid, the more things there were. They had just launched a marketing plan and their system was paralyzed now. This was clearly a direct target on them.

Ye Zisu frowned. Coincidence? Clearly that’s not possible. “Uncle Luo, don’t panic. Let me go take a look.”

The technicians were trying to fix it now and were checking the reasons behind the breakdown at the same time.

“Xiao Mu, what’s the situation now.”

“President, this is weird. Initially, I had thought that the system was under attack. However from the looks of the overall docking source, there aren’t any issues.” The technician with the nickname Xiao Mu adjusted his spectacles and said. “However, in just a period of 10 minutes, there are influxes of over one hundred thousand port numbers into our system. Moreover, these come from all over the Milky Way Alliance...”

Ye Zisu was stunned for a while. What followed next was a feeling of not knowing if she should cry or laugh. Everyone was truly paranoid. Clearly, the impact of the CPD was much better than imagined. It was so good that it had exceeded everyone’s expectation.

Soon, Ye Zisu’s judgement was verified. Countless Skylinks had call in. There were many people using various methods to know about the situation of CPD.

Xiao Fei’s Skylink also dialled in. “Zisu, it seems that we are going to be rich this time. Call Yan Xiaosu and come over to my place quickly. We need to meet up and discuss our future strategy.”

“Alright teacher.” Ye Zisu was finally able to truly relax herself. She was also elated from the bottom of her heart. There was finally light at the end of the tunnel. Obviously, what made her happiest was that her design concept was being recognised.

While they were verifying if the system was under attack, they were also planning to quickly increase the bandwidth. It was just that under normal circumstances, a small company would not experience such a huge volume of access at the same time. It would be strange if it really happened.

Once the effects of CPD was verified to be truly as great as what was advertised, OMG would have truly taken a huge step towards the entire Milky Way Alliance.

This time, they had not depended on their connection with the people of Tita but had depended on their products.

The birth of any Milky Way Alliance level financial organisation would require a series of patented products as their main selling point. The CPD represented such an opportunity.

Further introduction of the CPD was released soon after. With the attention garnered. OMG wouldn’t need to invest too much into it. They weren’t panicking now. The side which was panicking was the ones who demanded it.

The introduction on the product functionalities of CPD and the product demonstrations were already rather clear. It would be especially so if used in critical moments to transmit oneself and save one’s life. Although the distance wasn’t great, such a warp was in fact equivalent to another life. Even if the price was high, if the mech could survive, the calculation on returns would be reasonable.

In just a short while, the mecha world was boiling. If Ye Zisu was not well-known, others might have doubted the advertisement and this wouldn’t receive as much attention. However Ye Zisu was already a mecha designer with a little fame. At the same time, KING Company’s authority in the spatial project was also beyond doubt. The new device born from the cooperation between the two of them was clearly very reliable. If it was verified as possible, without a doubt, a new storm would have arrived.

The entire Milky Way Galaxy was enshrouded in a strange atmosphere. Some was anticipating, some were stressed and some were excited. If you were the competitors of OMG, you would truly feel a little worried. As a military organisation, if the CPD was verified as viable and the actual effect wouldn’t affect the movement of the mech, the blow to them would be lethal. OMG would be going global.

The Chronos Family held an emergency meeting. The Old Chronos was listening to the report of his old Butler Drupe. With regards to the OMG incident, he didn’t have to make a move. There would naturally be relevant departments of the family doing such small matters. Whether it would succeed or fail were both normal. This was normal operations for a family. However, the counter of OMG was truly very sharp and was even a little strange. With the appearance of CPD, the Chronos Family would not be able to touch OMG in the future. Once a company from the Solar System had gone global throughout the Milky Way Alliance, those small little tricks would not be presentable with the interests of various parties involved.

“Master, the situation is a little grave now. Based on our intelligence, that CPD could very much be real.” Drupe said worriedly. Truthfully speaking, even if Ye Bingwen was satisfied now or OMG having the Tita project, they were at most a new noveau riche and the threats to the Chronos would be limited. However if the CPD was launched, this would be beyond their control anymore. OMG might become a large organization in a short time.

The Old Chronos knocked on the table softly. This old man always looked like he was dying or could be considered as having one leg in the coffin. However, he was still living on very well.

Seeing that Old Chronos didn’t say a word, Drupe hesitated but still continued, “Master, should we...”

Old Chronos shook his head softly and a weird smile appeared on his mouth. “This is fate. If we can’t go against it, tell those below that we have to admit defeat when we lose. We shouldn’t play anymore tricks.”

“Yes master. With regards to Young Master’s side...”

“Don’t disturb him. This might be a good thing.” laughed Old Chronos. If Lear was to always stare at the little wealth of the Chronos Family, he would just be a miser and a small rich guy who hadn’t seen the world. He wouldn’t become someone great forever by doing so. At this stage, the Chronos Family wanted to bet on this opportunity. The stake would be what they had accumulated for a few hundred years and that ‘succession’.

With one leg already in his coffin, the Old Chronos had nothing he longed for. He had already enjoyed all the wealth and glory of time. At the last stage, what was left was the glory of the Family. Although he couldn’t achieve it, Lear had the chance to achieve it. Even if it was just a glimmer of hope, he would also want to wager everything on it.
