Sky-cracking Rider
Chapter 887 - 887: Section 880 - Handcuffed

A bottle of red wine, two wine glasses, and three white candles transformed the originally plain cafeteria meal into a romantic candlelit dinner.

After a few rounds of drinks, Chen Fei let out a sigh and said, "When I leave, I'll make sure to leave you an airship!"

He lacked the natural talent for being a Sky Knight, so the Crystal Jet was just a hobby, like model figurines; it was more a collector's item and at most would join the Airship Battle Group sequence, but not in large numbers. After all, despite the strong combat capability of the Crystal Jet, it's comparable to the energy consumption of medium to small-sized airships, and even with the laboratory-grade "Super Star Crystal" provided by Louis Industrial Company, it still couldn't be sustained.

"Ark? You're planning to..."

Upon hearing the mention of airships, Shen Fei was momentarily stunned, then quickly realized that this guy must have secretly "sacrificed" an airship to be able to recklessly replicate—no, to be precise, it should be recreated.

The results of replication and recreation are different; the things evolved with psi skills and the originals have distinct differences to a certain extent, making it impossible to be completely identical.

A private airship, in one word, extravagant!

Chen Fei nodded, confirming his girlfriend's speculation, and said, "Exactly! One must look out for oneself; otherwise, doom awaits. It's also just in case, since everyone has friends and family. Preset for 100 passengers is enough, right?"

Theoretically, it can accommodate 100 people, but practically, loading three to five hundred people is still easy, just like a bus.

Buses of the same volume are rated for about 40 passengers, but could easily hold a hundred or more.

Overloading? Impossible!

"But there's nowhere to store it!"

Shen Fei initially wanted to suggest leaving a flight crew, but the Northern Weapons Industry Group has no shortage of various pilots, from airships to fighter jets, they're all there.

Being in the aviation industry, how could there be a lack of pilots?

Just as she finished speaking, a bracelet slipped onto her wrist...not handcuffs.

"Huh?"

Instead of a ring, Chen Xiao'er gifted a bracelet to his girlfriend, quite a peculiar gesture. Shouldn't it be given by the mother-in-law at the wedding? Sentenced to marriage penalty!

"Inside is a small flying ship and 50 combat mechs, all prepared, no crew needed, fully controlled by 'Adam'."

Chen Fei took the twining space system alchemical storage artifact from his left wrist and put it on Shen Fei's wrist, and then held her hand.

As a reward for risking his life on Emerald Star, this storage artifact has become his possession, and he can give it to whoever he wants; the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee has no say.

Unnecessary items have been transferred to "Spatial Branding," leaving only a 40-meter-long small flying ship and 50 combat mechs, along with necessary weapons and ammunition.

The storage space capacity of this alchemical storage artifact, compared to "Spatial Branding," is negligible, with some overlap in functionality, so Chen Fei decided to pass it to his girlfriend.

The Little Bird jumped back and forth between their hands cheerfully, stealing bites in bright daylight from both sides.

"Is this a storage artifact?"

Shen Fei's eyes widened instantly, looking at the bracelet on her wrist with a mix of surprise and disbelief before glancing at Chen Fei again.

Can this thing be casually gifted? Aren't you afraid of causing trouble?

Even though Blue Star and Cangqiong Star have initiated allocated trade and various technical exchanges, the interaction between industrial technology and alchemy has not been lacking, yet the level of alchemy in Blue Star Civilization remains far behind Cangqiong Star, the birthplace of alchemy. Plus, the lack of relevant materials has always prevented the independent production of space system alchemical storage artifacts, relying mostly on imported allocation trade.

Cangqiong Star's own production is limited, and now with the additional demand from another civilization planet, space system alchemical storage artifacts are scarcer than ever, with price being no object.

Therefore, the majority of space system storage artifacts in Blue Star Civilization are held by sovereigns, with private ownership being rare.

Chen Fei truly seized a rare opportunity, capitalizing on the timing for maximum profit, which would otherwise be impossible. However, for Blue Star Civilization, the meat is always in their own pot; whichever of their people consume it, it makes no difference.

Giving this bracelet to Shen Fei isn't without risks, but it's only risky for Chen Fei personally; should he be exposed to another supernatural ability suppressant, he might find himself without an emergency storage artifact.

But the probability of this risk is low, as the two airship battle groups currently won't reclaim "Spatial Branding," being part of the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's regular combat force. Additionally, few know that Chen Fei's "Spatial Branding" can be affected by supernatural ability suppressants, nor would anyone randomly administer it to him. As long as the Single Soldier Tactical Armor remains intact, there's no opportunity to inject Chen Xiao'er.

"Later I'll get you some magic potions to enhance spiritual power; an ordinary person's spiritual power can only activate it once or twice, and overdrawn spiritual power can cause headaches."

Chen Fei happened to be short on these magic potions, since he didn't need them himself; the ones he acquired earlier were all given to his family.

"You're too reckless; how can you give such things away casually."

Shen Fei wanted to take off the twining bracelet and return it to Chen Fei but was stopped.

"Don't worry, it's just a spare; I have a larger one."

Chen Fei raised his left hand, revealing a silver light pattern on the back, the "Spatial Branding" that no one could steal.

"Is that also a storage artifact?"

Shen Fei was incredulous, owning two storage spaces seemed extravagantly excessive.

It had to be extravagant to hold two airship battle groups.

"Well, it's not an alchemical artifact; it's a psi skill, acquired later, part of the big gift from Mr. Randon."

Chen Fei openly shared the truth without hesitation.

In fact, this wasn't a secret, as it's a psi skill; even if someone covets it, chopping off his hand won't help.

"Okay!~ I'll accept it then."

Despite being unaware of the Blue Star Global United Defense Committee's ongoing operations, through Chen Fei's preparations for her, Shen Fei could easily infer that the current situation may not be as peaceful as ordinary people think; there's a real possibility of an abrupt downturn, potentially putting the entire civilization on the brink of extinction, with only a few able to escape.

By accepting this twining bracelet storage artifact, Chen Fei, her boyfriend, could engage in the struggle against the parasitic species without distraction or worries.

Although they couldn't protect more people, given Chen Fei's personal capabilities, no matter how much effort, how many could he actually save?

An airship with a rated capacity of 100 passengers was already a generous refuge.

"How large is this capacity?"

Shen Fei caressed the storage artifact on her wrist.

The twining design was both practical and beautiful, its appearance reminiscent more of jewelry than an alchemical artifact, resulting from the monk's thoughtful efforts to obtain it.

Chen Fei replied, "1100 cubic meters!"

Compared to the capacity of "Spatial Branding," this storage volume is negligible.

"That big?"

Shen Fei was shocked, as typical two or three cubic meter space system alchemical storage artifacts are hugely expensive; a capacity of over a thousand cubic meters would be typically state-owned, right?

"Not at all big; the airship takes up 80 percent, and the combat mechs, allowing at most 100 cubic meters of flexible space. Use it sparingly."

If it wasn't for the possibility of using the airship at any moment, Chen Fei wouldn't have placed it in the storage space, wasting such a vast capacity.

Thankfully, the combat mechs could be stored inside the airship without occupying additional space, leaving some margin.

"Understood!"

Shen Fei tried to focus her attention on the bracelet, and the wine bottle on the table disappeared instantly.

Though she hadn't used it personally, she knew how. The method of using space system alchemical storage artifacts wasn't a secret technique; it was almost common knowledge, only rarely experienced by ordinary people due to the rarity of such alchemical artifacts.

Before Xiao Jiu could protest, the wine bottle reappeared on the dining table.

"Ah!~ I can only use it three times!"

Shen Fei immediately felt mild pain in her head; much spiritual power had been consumed, storing counted as one use, releasing as another, unrelated to the volume size, only the number of times consumed spiritual power.

Though she hadn't reached her limit, she could use it once more at most.

Chen Fei advised, "Use it twice a day at most to exercise your spiritual power; this can't be rushed. I'll get you some magic potions."

The consequences of overusing spiritual power are severe, especially for ordinary people; it can cause irreversible damage, even resulting in a vegetative state.
