Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

Chapter 332: Chapter 233: Launching the T2-class Spacecraft

On the way back, Lin Qi reviewed his battle with King Arthur from earlier that day.

First and foremost, it was clear that a being at Tier Four was on a completely different level from a Tier Three Extraordinary.

It might have looked like he caused King Arthur a fair bit of trouble, but from start to finish, he had failed to inflict any substantial damage on her.

’However, as long as I use this combination of Abilities for long-range combat, even a Tier Four Extraordinary won’t be able to lock onto my position. I can guarantee my safety.’

’Furthermore, if I act as support from the sidelines instead of as the main frontal attacker, I can cause immense trouble for a Tier Four Powerhouse. That fits the logic of how a Mercenary Corps operates.’

From that perspective, the current lineup of the Highest-Level Mercenary Corps was nearly perfect.

They had Master Arima and King Arthur, two frontline fighters with Extraordinary Domains, as well as Jingang, a Prosthetic Implanter with boundless potential.

Add to that Guang Ling’s intelligence support, the Capitalist’s resource support, and himself—a Wizard with insidious methods.

As long as they didn’t have to face an X-Class Prosthetic Implanter or some great terror like a Tier Five Extraordinary Professional, the Highest-Level Mercenary Corps had the strength to operate globally.

The name "Highest-Level" was finally starting to feel earned.

Pushing aside thoughts of the Mercenary Corps in combat, Lin Qi went back to contemplating his own battle plans.

’What I showed in the fight today wasn’t the full picture. The most insidious part of this Ability combination is actually Decomposition Mimicry.’

’With a clear target and sufficient intel, I could even use Mimicry to become someone close to them, or even equip some powerful Prosthetic Bodies.’

’Compared to frontal assaults, my Abilities are much better suited for planned operations.’

This arranged fight with King Arthur gave Lin Qi a much clearer understanding of the upper limits of his capabilities, which would help him make more detailed plans in the future.

All in all, the power Lin Qi now commanded was far from weak. While he couldn’t handle a Tier Four, he was fully confident in his ability to deal with any Tier Three Extraordinary.

...

Night fell over the Alliance Mansion.

Lin Qi received an email from Liu Xuan.

[The plan is proceeding smoothly. The summit will be held tomorrow at 9 a.m. on the 399th floor of the Alliance Mansion in the [Intercontinental Exhibition Hall]. We’ll meet at the Alliance Mansion tomorrow.]

Liu Xuan hadn’t come to the Alliance Mansion yet. For one, she needed to handle the stock-swap arrangements between numerous smaller enterprises and United Pharmaceutical. For another, she had to contend with the other four of the so-called "five major pharmaceutical companies" in the Asian Administrative Region.

The matter of them trying to intimidate Lin Qi with unarmed missiles was far from over.

Liu Xuan had already uncovered some leads during this time and was now maneuvering against them behind the scenes.

Kudou Human Body Engineering Company?

It figured they’d resort to such tactics.

Thinking everyone was just like them, without a shred of integrity!

The massive corporation operated in multiple sectors, with pharmaceuticals as its core, but it also invested heavily in prosthetic body engineering.

Liu Xuan was now using Liu’s Heavy Industries’ channels to launch a clear retaliatory campaign against them.

This was a declaration of her stance!

United Pharmaceutical was coming for them!

Don’t like it?

Then bring your A-game to the summit tomorrow and show us what you’ve got!

Lin Qi, unaware that Liu Xuan had been so busy dealing with this, simply read the email and replied.

[Leave the academic portion of the summit to me. Don’t worry about it.]

When it came to academic knowledge of A-Class Pharmacy, Lin Qi was more than confident. He just wasn’t sure what method they would use for evaluation and scoring tomorrow.

Liu Xuan’s reply was just as concise.

[Okay. See you tomorrow.]

After his exchange with Liu Xuan, Lin Qi once again pulled up the Liu Clan’s literature on Pharmacy.

Although he had already thoroughly absorbed most of it, reviewing was always a good habit.

...

At 12:31 a.m. on March 23, 2089, the cooldown for the [Door] completed right on schedule.

Without hesitation, Lin Qi decisively opened it and stepped into the Doomsday World.

Compared to how smoothly everything was going in the Cyber World, the Doomsday World was a source of much greater pressure for Lin Qi.

Barring any accidents, the T2-class Spacecraft was scheduled to launch today.

Before the launch, Lin Qi still needed to input the relevant parameters for the Intelligent Brain to calculate the orbital trajectory.

The parameters were in the files Wang Qiang had given him.

Using a laptop, Lin Qi began to review the data provided by Wang Qiang.

The files detailed the mission requirements.

From a technical standpoint, the requirements were not complex. In fact, the T2-class Spacecraft Lin Qi had prepared was even a bit of an overkill performance-wise.

’The mission objective is to deliver that Tier Five Extraordinary Item to the Earth-Moon gravitational balance point and then use the spacecraft to maintain a stable long-term orbit. Before the apocalypse, a mission like this wouldn’t have been considered difficult at all.’

’But under the current circumstances, with all signal transmissions cut off and the moon itself being a source of mutation, using a manned spacecraft could introduce uncontrollable risks. That’s why Headquarters opted for a plan involving multiple teams acting simultaneously.’

’To hedge their bets, they even sent one of the Tier Five Extraordinary Items to the Mo University Camp...’

The name "gravitational balance point" might have sounded a bit unfamiliar.

But it was much more commonly known as a Lagrange point.

The location where the Tier Five Extraordinary Item needed to be positioned was the Earth-Moon L1 Lagrange point.

The L1 point is approximately 320,000 kilometers from Earth. This location allows a spacecraft to remain in a relatively fixed position between the Earth and Moon with minimal energy expenditure.

Once it reached this position, it would be time for the Tier Five Extraordinary Item to activate.
