Chapter 88: 4,000 Tons Of Terrifying Thrust!

Watching Raymond run out with a steak in his hand, Gayle Gadot was dumbfounded.

However, she carefully thought about why Kim Hee-sun had remained in the car.

If the two of them were really fighting over the steak, Raymond wouldn’t have gotten out of the car, Kim Hee-sun wouldn’t have gotten out.

Therefore, something fishy definitely happened.

As for what exactly happened, only the two of them would know.

I wonder if I can get it out of Kim Hee-sun. I’ll have to try it tonight

Gayle Gadot made up her mind, but she didn’t show it on the surface.

The robots were very efficient.

Raymond was still trying to coax Kim Hee-sun out of the car when Tuesday had already notified him.

The large plasma engine had been installed.

The pressure tests had been completed.

The various cables had been tested.

He had no idea where Tuesday had gotten her hands on a console and had the entire command station installed on the dock.

This time, he had learned his lesson.

Tuesday had installed the console very far away. Although there would still be heatwaves, the surface of the sea would absorb a large portion of the heat.

At that moment, Trident 16’s head was on the beach, while the plasma engine was installed at its tail.

This way, even if it moved, Trident 16 would have a cushioned area to absorb the force.

Then, Raymond began testing.

However, something went wrong in the middle.

“Brother, let me press these switches! Hurry up, it will be interesting!”

“Um… Alright!”

Raymond agreed after some thought.

The test run of the plasma engine wasn’t a big deal.

Moreover, these switches had a protective mechanism. If the wrong switches were pressed, there wouldn’t be any problems.

At most, he would just turn them off and start over.

However, Raymond’s actions made the people from the space agency cover their eyes like they were watching a horror movie.

“What’s wrong with this Raymond? How could he let a little girl handle such a big matter?!”

“I think Raymond is blinded by her beauty. He doesn’t even know where he is!”

“I’m so angry. He’s not strict at all. What does this Kim Hee-sun know? What if she presses the wrong buttons?!”

“I’m really impressed. What is Raymond thinking?!”

“Forget it, forget it. This plasma engine is his. If he wants to do it this way, then do it this way. Don’t think too much about it. Don’t make yourself angry!”

McLean was the most emotional of them all.

He looked at the screen and pointed at it. His fingers were trembling.

“This… this… This is really pissing me off! For such an important matter, he… he actually let a person who doesn’t know anything do it. What if something goes wrong?”

“This Raymond, after his program ends, I have to teach him some work ethics!”

“He hasn’t received any systematic education. He’s just messing around!”

..

Raymond could not hear anything anyway. At that moment, Raymond was doting on Kim Hee-sun.

Seeing that it was almost done, Raymond began to give orders to the girl.

“Turn on the main switch!”

“Main switch…”

After Raymond said that, Kim Hee-sun searched for a while on the console and then pressed the switch.

“Turn on the temperature monitor.”

“Temperature monitor…”

“Turn on the Lorentz force monitor.”

“Lorentz force monitor…”

“Turn on the start module…”

“Prepare for preheating…”

“Level one preheating…”

Kim Hee-sun’s actions weren’t sloppy.

However, in the eyes of the audience, it did not seem right no matter how they looked at it.

Especially when she needed to stop and look for switches one by one, it made them even angrier.

Even if they sent bullet screens, Raymond and the others could not see it.

There was no response. It was truly infuriating.

In the international live broadcast room, the director immediately switched the camera.

From afar, they could see a little red light appearing at the stern of Trident 16.

The red light seemed to be growing.

It went from the size of a fist to the size of a basketball.

At the same time, the small side screen in the lower right corner displayed the data of the pressure.

200 tons.

500 tons.

1,000 tons.

1,800 tons.

The thrust was only getting stronger and the noise was getting louder.

But because it was far away, it did not seem like an immediate problem.

The camera could still hear the voices of Raymond and the others.

“Intermediate energy supply…”

“Intermediate… Energy…”

Kim Hee-sun pushed the energy control rod down to full throttle and stopped when she saw that it was almost done.

Kim Hee-sun was undeniably smart.

Every time Raymond gave an order, she could keep up.

Although she was slightly slower, her unfamiliarity with the tools considered, there was much room for improvement and growth.

2,500 tons.

3,200 tons.

4,000 tons.

When the thrust almost reached 4,000 tons, Trident 16 was shoved forward.

The huge bow slowly sunk into the beach.

The backblow of the thrusters stirred up waves.

The seawater started turning into clouds of steam.

The water vapor was blown up by the wake of the engine and gradually drifted up.

A layer of fog slowly rose over the sea.

In the international live broadcast room.

“Do you see that? Such a big cargo ship actually moved. It’s so terrifying!”

“Hehe… Floating objects don’t have much friction, doesn’t take much to push them. I managed to pull a big ship before!”

“Please, you’re full of shit. Do you know how heavy a cargo ship is? Moreover, this cargo ship is being pushed ashore now. You have no idea how much thrust that is.”

“It’s just 4,000 tons, how strong could it be?”

“I give up! I give up, I give up explaining, there are so many illiterates around!”

“For example, you know what 50kg of rice is, you know that much, right? 4,000 tons of strength can shove aside 160,000 of those bags of rice. Now, go figure out the rest yourself!”

“Don’t explain to him, he probably wouldn’t understand even if held his hand and traced the lines.”

“F*ck…”

Obviously, the man understood. He left a parting f*ck and stopped talking.

Many of the previously unknown audience members also understood the power of the plasma engine at that moment.

One after another, they started to write “applause” and “that’s awesome.”

Meanwhile, McLean and the others were left drooling at the sight.

Now, it had a power of 4,000 tons.

A rocket normally weighed that much.

Even the heaviest craft only weighed 3,800 tons.

With the power of this plasma engine, it could send that thing up into the sky right now.

And most importantly, it could be reused.

Why were launch vehicles heavy?

It was because of the weight of the fuel inside.

In order not to be bound by gravity, these rockets usually used up one section and then discarded the emptied sections.

By the time all the engines had burned out, the entire craft barely weighed 100 tons.

Raymond had developed the plasma engine. With his nano-neutrino battery, it was estimated to be able to transport 1,500 to 2,000 tons into space.

It was beyond a mere breakthrough.
