Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 674 - 406: Kunpeng Rocket

As the blood donation policy gradually spread across Southeast Asia, thousands of tons of fresh blood arrived daily, serving as nourishment for Su Jie's Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill.

With a population of 250 million in Southeast Asia, the resources available for Su Jie were abundant.

Although the blood donation led to spending money like water, what Su Jie exchanged for it was rapid progress in the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill.

Inside his body, the Holy Blood had already broken through to more than ten thousand drops.

However, one day, Su Jie, who had been absent from the underground cultivation field for a long time, took the time to visit the southern part of Chan Country, a coastal wasteland.

Originally just a wasteland, a huge base now sat on the site.

At the entrance of the base, seven gilded characters hung, "Red Sun Rocket Launch Site."

Indeed, this was a rocket launch site, built by the Jieke Group with a hefty investment, intended as the rocket center for future space launch missions.

This rocket launch base covered an area of 35,331 acres with a coastline of 8.8 kilometers. It was originally a barren beach with saline soil. The nearest population center and major traffic artery were about 200 kilometers away, making it a relatively safe location.

Also, due to its proximity to the equator and low latitude, it was the best geographical location for satellite launches. Launching satellites in the equatorial region allowed the rocket to fully utilize Blue Star's rotation, saving on the rocket's thrust and making it easier to deliver payloads into orbit. Therefore, it was selected as the rocket launch site.

Su Jie arrived here by car. From afar, through the car window, he could see the supporting facilities inside the Red Sun Rocket Launch Site, such as the telemetry station, technical area, test collaboration area, technical service area, and main rocket assembly building.

The car traveled along, and the workers they encountered along the way were mostly in a hurry because today was the day the first rocket was assembled off the line.

The car stopped in front of a building. This was the rocket's back-end monitoring room, where various monitoring and data during rocket launches were collected and implemented.

During the rocket launch, even the countdown button was pressed here.

"Mr. Su, Miss Liu!"

Upon entering, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking energetic approached them with a group of engineers.

He was indeed the chief designer of the Kunpeng series rockets, named Pang Liangzhi. Originally a Hua Country native, his grandfather had emigrated to Beautiful Country during the years of war. Previously, he worked at an aerospace technology company in Beautiful Country and was later headhunted by Jieke Group.

Mainly because Jieke Group promised to allow him to lead a team and design and build his own rockets.

In Beautiful Country, although his abilities were widely recognized, his Chinese identity always made it impossible for him to rise to a high position.

Once Jieke Company contacted him, Pang Liangzhi did not hesitate much and agreed, changing his nationality to Chan Country and having his family relocated here, freeing him from worries about his personal life.

"Master Pang, it's been a while. How have you been lately?"

Su Jie shook hands with Pang Liangzhi, his face displaying a congenial smile.

"Mr. Su, you flatter me. Just call me Mr. Pang, I dare not claim any superior title in your presence. You are the true master. And don't worry about me, Mr. Su, I am quite satisfied with life here, so much so that I regret not having joined Jieke Company a day sooner."

Pang Liangzhi waved his hands continuously. Initially joining Jieke Group, he somewhat had the mentality of technological philanthropy.

Though Jieke Group was wealthy, rocket technology belongs to high-tech and cannot simply be achieved by throwing money at it.

Only about 20 countries worldwide have launched several thousand satellites, and among them, only Beautiful Country, Mao Bear Country, Hua Country, France, India, Great Britain, and Japan have accomplished launches entirely on their own.

Prior to this, the countries in Southeast Asia were not only unrelated to such cutting-edge technology as rockets; they were completely unrelated.

However, once Pang Liangzhi arrived at the newly established space department of Jieke Group, especially after seeing Su Jie and various magical materials, his attitude changed dramatically.

Su Jie always had various bold and innovative rocket designs, and those high-performance, unheard-of materials also enabled Pang Liangzhi to unleash his creativity in innovative design.

Moreover, in terms of funding, Jieke Group was extremely generous and did not have any so-called layman leaders interfering.

Pang Liangzhi felt that joining Jieke Group truly allowed his dreams to be realized, and he was extremely satisfied with his current life.

"That's great to hear. We at Jieke Group are now desperately in need of talents. If there's anything unsatisfactory, please speak up."

Su Jie reassured him, then asked, "How is the installation of the first Kunpeng rocket going now? I hope there were no mishaps."

"All steps have been completed well, thanks to those Genetic Warriors and Spider Mechas you dispatched. Otherwise, installing such a huge rocket would not have been easy."

"Let's go see it now. This Kunpeng rocket represents the hard work of many, and I have yet to see its true face."

After exchanging pleasantries, Su Jie and Pang Liangzhi, along with others, arrived at the launch site area.

Upon entering the launch site, an enormous towering object suddenly appeared before everyone.

Below the launch pad, a huge rocket stood upright, measuring at least 150 meters in height, similar to a giant ship being erected.

The engineers present had seen it more than once, and Su Jie was prepared mentally.

Only Yingying, seeing this rocket for the first time, involuntarily let out a somewhat inappropriate exclamation.
