"Xiaocao, why don't you try flying this Type 59?"
On the ground.
Even though Hua Jun had a peculiar view of Cao Yi, his emotions were still inevitably stirred when he spoke these words.
Although Cao Yi is difficult to generalize—after all, the situation of a heavy spiritualist like him is unique, probably only Cao Yi in the entire camp.
The vast majority of warriors reaching the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer can probably only refine one life-bound magical artifact.
It's hard to say how many people would actually choose a tank at that point.
To genuinely achieve mass Type 59 modifications taking to the skies, like forming a flying Type 59 squadron or something.
It's likely only achievable once the Floating Array from Ziqiong City is obtained and its principles deciphered.
But even if Cao Yi is an exception.
The image of a Type 59 flying is still irresistibly thrilling.
That's a Type 59 flying!
How many people dream of such a scene?
Hearing Hua Jun's words.
Cao Yi couldn't help but look at Lin Li, seeking his opinion.
Lin Li nodded lightly:
"Comrade Xiaocao, if you're feeling good, please proceed with a demonstration."
With Lin Li's consent, Cao Yi immediately began to prepare.
As previously mentioned.
Most ordinary Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators, after refining their life-bound magical artifacts, need to practice levitating with sword techniques.
The purpose is to avoid mistakes during actual flight, like crashing into a wall or something.
But the unique qualifications of someone like Cao Yi, a dual spiritual root heavy spiritualist, don't apply.
The explosive spiritual sense of a heavy spiritualist inherently provides enough "thrust."
Long-distance levitating flight definitely requires more practice, but mere vertical ascent and descent are quite easy.
As for aerial balance, that's even simpler.
Before the appearance of Chen Rong, a single spiritual root cultivator, Cao Yi was undoubtedly the most qualified person in the camp.
With preferential resource treatment, all kinds of skill training came naturally.
After all, preferential treatment isn't for enjoying luxury but for rapid growth into a towering tree.
So from a very early age.
Cao Yi possessed balance equivalent to that of an outstanding astronaut, making the operation incredibly easy.
Then Cao Yi walked over to the Type 59, slowly channeling his spiritual sense, officially beginning the demonstration.
Gradually.
The Type 59 started to respond.
First, an antenna at the rear of the armor started to tremble slightly, followed by the tracks, and then the entire body began to slowly float.
One meter...
Five meters...
Ten meters...
Twenty meters...
Lin Li withdrew his gaze from the ascending Type 59, saying to Cao Yi with some concern:
"Comrade Cao Yi, pay attention to the consumption of your spiritual sense.
If it gets too tiring, you can stop for a bit. Never overexert, prioritize safety."
Cao Yi smiled confidently:
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I haven't even taken human flight yet.
The spiritual sense consumed by a magical artifact alone is not much. I can handle it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Li couldn't help but cast a glance at Liu Xiangqian.
Liu Xiangqian caught on, pointed to the main control of the spiritual sensor brought out of the room, and nodded subtly.
As previously mentioned.
The brightness of the spiritual sensor can simply estimate a person's level of spiritual sense, being more convincing than the words of Cao Yi himself.
With Liu Xiangqian's feedback.
Lin Li then let go of his worries and continued to watch the Type 59's ascent quietly.
Then, thinking of something, his expression turned a bit odd:
"If Cao Yi's spiritual sense is strong enough, wouldn't the Type 59 orbital cannon joke become a reality?"
The floating height of the Type 59 kept increasing, fifty meters... a hundred meters...
Ultimately, it hovered at about 200 meters above the ground, motionless.
Ordinary drones at this height, if maintaining silence, would be hard for most people to notice their existence.
But this time, what ascended was a main battle tank weighing over 30 tons, much larger than a drone by orders of magnitude.
Coupled with the unique shape of a main battle tank, it immediately attracted the attention of numerous researchers.
"What the heck is that? A UFO?"
"Idiot, didn't you see the turret? That's a tank!"
"Oh, is that so... by the way, who are you?"
"I'm Li Hao, can't you recognize me?"
"I'm freaking 800 degrees near-sighted and ran out without glasses, can't distinguish anything beyond three meters, seeing shadows is already a medical miracle, you understand?"
"Babbling babbling....."
Some young researchers instinctively took out their phones, shooting short videos toward the sky.
Their supervisor didn't mind at all, letting them film.
After all, there's no signal in the Damo Realm to post on social media, and there's no restriction on internal network posts.
Plus, contacting family when returning to homeland has to pass rigorous scrutiny, making it certain that these videos won't spread locally in the short term.
By the time the videos are allowed to be made public, the bunnies might possess more than just this one flying Type 59.
It's also fortunate that these videos can't be posted.
Otherwise, military forums would probably crash within half an hour.
Then Lin Li looked at Cao Yi:
"Comrade Xiaocao, how are you feeling?"
Cao Yi closed his eyes, sensed for a moment, then said:
"It's a very unique feeling....
I can see some ground scenes through the Type 59's perspective, and it seems I can even fire some ammo..."
Hua Jun suddenly interrupted:
"So what about the radar? Fire control systems? Can the vertical stabilizer be adjusted?"
Cao Yi tried it, shook his head:
"The radar and fire control systems don't seem to work, but the vertical stabilizer and gun angles can be adjusted."
Hua Jun was thoughtful upon hearing this:
"That shouldn't be...
Our main battle tanks can be considered as independent modules in special circumstances.
If the fire control system doesn't work, shooting accuracy would be affected.
Unless....
You or someone else manually controls it inside the tank tonight."
With Hua Jun's words.
The expressions of everyone present turned a bit odd.
So it's just ground-air tandem coordination then...
Afterward, with Wei Fan's assistance, Cao Yi lowered the Type 59 to the ground and was led away by Zhang Guanghua to take a rest.
After all, it was quite exhausting, not to mention that Cao Yi nearly kicked the bucket earlier.
Meanwhile, Lin Li, accompanied by Hua Jun, Liu Xiangqian, and Wang Qiang, discussed the recent events as they walked.
As Lin Li walked, he turned his head, taking a glance at the Type 59, frowning as he said:
"Heavy spiritualist, heavy spiritualist....
What exactly does this physique signify?
Why is it possible to refine two life-bound magical artifacts?"
Liu Xiangqian thought for a moment, then said:
"Heavy spiritualist, heavy spirits, could it refer to dual souls?"
...
Note:
The concept of a flying Type 59 was imagined a long time ago, but it's unknown how many readers still remember this.
Initially, it was planned for Yu Lian to sacrifice himself, with his soul attaching to the Type 59, but the idea got badly criticized even before that could happen, being changed back after three hours....
Anyone who remembers this, leave a comment, just to see if any old readers are still around, back then, we hadn't even hit the rankings.
