Douluo: Twins of Fate

Chapter 80: The Sun and Moon Empire Lasts Forever!
Xu Tianran knew his father very well. As an emperor, he might have been full of confidence and wanted to accomplish great things when he ascended the throne, but after so many years, his ambitions had been worn down by the endless court intrigues.

With this kind of personality, one might be a little cowardly towards such military and national affairs, but one attaches great importance to one's own power!

Xu Tianran's words undoubtedly touched the emperor's heart!
Complete control over everything in the empire! This is what the emperor wants!
After Xu Tianran finished speaking, Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen glanced at the prince and nodded slightly.

The emperor, who was sitting at the head of the table, waved his hand and said, "Your Highness, what you said makes sense! Then please ask His Majesty Silver Moon and His Majesty Red Dust to coordinate this matter. When the soul guide satellite is launched, I will lead the civil and military officials to personally attend the ceremony!"

"Yes!" Jing Hongchen nodded.

Kong Deming, standing to one side, also nodded slowly. Kong Deming was an elder of the royal family, and the current emperor was his junior in terms of seniority. Moreover, he was the number one man in the Sun-Moon Empire, so even when facing the emperor, he didn't need to behave like a subject.

Jiang Shengyu learned from Jing Hongchen what happened in the court today. He shook his head and said, "The emperor is old."

"Don't let other people hear what you say, otherwise, even with your talent, you will suffer." Jing Hongchen warned Jiang Shengyu after hearing what he said.

Jiang Shengyu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I'm really a cunning person."

"The soul guide satellite is about to be launched. How is the development of the mobile phone going?" Kong Deming looked at Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen on the side and asked about the situation.

The master and disciple exchanged a glance. Xuan Ziwen sighed helplessly and said to Kong Deming, "No matter how hard we try, we can't replicate all the phone functions that Junior Brother mentioned!"

Jiang Shengyu blinked when he heard this, raised his hand, and said, "Well... we don't need to replicate all the functions. I'm afraid that's not something we can do right now. We only need a few key functions, such as instant messaging, sending and receiving messages, and checking the time."

"If it's just these few functions, then it's not a big problem." Hearing this, Xuan Ziwen nodded and said to Kong Deming. After that, he winked at Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao understood and continued, "Also, the production of the base station has been completed. The first generation base station uses a third-level soul formation core and can scan and support information sent by mobile phone soul formations within a three-kilometer radius."

Kong Deming nodded slightly and asked, "I remember Sheng Yu suggested connecting mobile phones directly to satellites. In the future, when we fight against the three kingdoms that were once part of Douluo Continent, there will definitely be no base station support in the areas where our Sun and Moon Army is stationed. What are the progress on this aspect?"

After hearing Kong Deming's question, Xuan Ziwen replied, "Using a mobile phone to connect directly to a soul guide satellite requires a rather strict level of soul guide formation. According to our experiments, in order for a mobile phone to be able to connect to a soul guide satellite in the sky from the ground, a soul guide formation of at least level seven is required! And to maintain a stable and continuous connection, a level eight formation is required."

"Eighth level formation?"

Kong Deming thought for a moment and nodded, "No problem, make a batch first, and then we can slowly improve it later! If you don't have enough manpower, ask your senior brother for some. Mingde Hall still has quite a few eighth-level soul masters."

There are only a few dozen level nine soul masters in the Sun-Moon Empire, but level eight soul masters are not that rare in the Sun-Moon Empire.

Xuan Ziwen is an eighth-level soul mentor and a disciple of Kong Deming, but he is only a researcher at Mingde Hall and a teacher at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

The Soul Guide Satellite is about to be launched, and all related supporting projects are being rapidly accelerated and upgraded.

The launch site of the soul guide satellite is located in the suburbs of Mingdu. It was originally a suburban laboratory of Mingde Hall, and was urgently converted into a launch site for this launch mission.

Jiang Shengyu felt a bit lost as he watched the tall, pure white soul-guided rocket resting on its launch pad, its iconic sun and moon livery painted on it. The words "Sun Moon Aerospace" written across the pure white body of the rocket created a dreamlike feeling.

The viewing platform was built within a safe area, and guarding it were the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Master Corps, personally dispatched by the Emperor! This was the most powerful Soul Master Corps in the Sun-Moon Empire, with the three leaders and deputy leaders all being ninth-level Soul Masters, and the leader being a member of the royal family.

Jing Hongchen sat in the main control room, watching everything. He looked at the time, and when the launch time was approaching, he sent someone to ask the emperor whether it was possible to launch.

The emperor sat in the main seat on the viewing platform, while Jiang Shengyu, Xu Tianran, Kong Deming and others were in the lower seats.

He looked at the tall rocket in the distance. When Jing Hongchen sent someone to ask if it could be launched, he looked at Kong Deming and others below.

Kong Deming turned around and said, "Your Majesty, it's almost time."

The emperor then nodded and gave Jing Hongchen the order to launch!
Following a command from the main control room, the soul guide formation under the rocket was activated, and a huge force ejected from under the rocket, pushing the huge white dragon into the sky.

The earth rumbled, white light flew into the sky, and an arrow shot into the sky.

Although the emperor and his ministers could not see the soul-guided satellite unfolding in space, they were shocked enough just by seeing the soul-guided rocket launching!
Here, the only one who can remain calm is Jiang Shengyu!
But he also had a dreamy feeling when he saw the rocket taking off in this world.

Soon, news came from the main control room.

The first soul-guided satellite has successfully flown into the predetermined orbit and sent back news.

"The Sun and Moon Empire will live forever!"

The emperor looked at the message from the main control room and said "good" several times in succession. He circulated this message to everyone.

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Corps outside also sang loudly the loud slogan of the Sun-Moon Empire for eternity.

"Your Majesty Silver Moon, what level is the formation engraved under the rocket? I think its power is comparable to that of a fixed-type soul-guided artillery shell!" The emperor looked at Kong Deming below and asked.

"The main propulsion device of the rocket is composed of twelve energy-concentrating and jet-jet ninth-level soul guide formations, which can provide huge propulsion force for the rocket and send the soul guide satellite out of the sky!" Kong Deming replied.

This is a massive investment that only the Sun-Moon Empire could afford! A ninth-level soul guide array is simpler than a complete ninth-level soul guide device, but it also requires the full dedication of a ninth-level soul guide.

"Okay! Okay!"

The emperor applauded, and the cultural relics ministers behind him also applauded, praising Mingdetang's research.
