However, the power plant was enormous in size. The energy it required still depended on extremely high temperatures to heat water. It was entirely different from the reactor on the Dark Yamato Battleship. Not only was it much smaller, but most importantly, it did not require a large number of steam generators. It could directly convert heat into energy. This technological approach was far ahead of the Blue Star.
In so many fields of technology, relying solely on the scholars of the Dragon Kingdom to conduct research would likely take decades, if not longer, to fully absorb the power of these advancements. The Dragon Kingdom depended on the formidable military strength of the Plant Battleship. Other countries were eager to send their scholars to study the research on the Dark Yamato Battleship conducted by the Dragon Kingdom.
During this period, the transport aircraft of the Dragon Kingdom were exceptionally busy, prioritizing the transportation of scholars applying to come to the Dragon Kingdom. The number was quite substantial. The first to be transported were physicists, mathematicians, scholars, biologists, agronomists, and others. Following them were medical scientists, architects, mechanical engineers, and so forth. Scholars from various nations were incredibly enthusiastic.
There were even some lesser-known scholars who wished to conduct research. For instance, astronomers believed that the planet where Dark Humanity lived might differ significantly from Blue Star and needed their expertise. Archaeologists suggested that there could be a history distinct from Blue Star's, and through archaeology, they could learn more about that history to better study the Dark Yamato Battleship. The theologians argued that different religions might influence the production of the Dark Yamato Battleship, making their insights valuable as well.
Regardless of whether their specialties were directly useful for researching the Dark Yamato Battleship, these scholars all applied to come to the Dragon Kingdom for their studies.
The Xian Long Kingdom was immensely powerful. The dark creatures from the four portals could be easily eliminated by the Ye Feihong Plant Battleship. However, the portals often fell into disarray, requiring support from the Dragon Kingdom to maintain their defenses. The people there struggled daily with hunger and cold, constantly facing threats to their lives.
To be able to stay in the Dragon Kingdom, even as a common citizen, was far better than being a noble in their own country. Therefore, regardless of whether the Dragon Kingdom needed them or not, they all tried their best to apply for permission to move there. The Dragon Kingdom was quite humane; as long as their scholars' applications were approved, they could bring their wives, children, and daughters along to live in the Dragon Kingdom.
Such an opportunity would not be overlooked by scholars from other countries. Not only did these scholars eagerly submit their applications, but many skilled workers did as well—engineers, top welders, and others. They all sent in requests, recognizing the importance of such talents.
For instance, there was an ordinary worker in the Dragon Kingdom whose job was quite simple: cutting explosives. He ensured that the missiles produced by the Dragon Kingdom had precise accuracy. Explosives were extremely dangerous materials; a moment's carelessness could lead to an explosion. Moreover, every component of a missile required precise measurements, which meant that the explosives had to be cut manually.
The precision needs to reach the millimeter level. For precision instruments, this is considered very rough accuracy. When manually cutting a surface, the precision cannot exceed a millimeter. This requires a significant amount of time for training.
An ordinary worker who cuts explosives for missiles often requires over a decade of training. Skilled workers from various industries are also very rare talents. They need to apply for research opportunities in the Dragon Kingdom, and such enthusiasm is naturally welcomed by the Dragon Kingdom.
Of course, there are some talents that the Dragon Kingdom does reject. For example, there is a talent from A San Country who can taste different types of Holy Cow Urine and accurately determine which cow is the healthiest based on flavor. Such a talent is not needed by the Dragon Kingdom.
Despite filtering out many peculiar talents, there are still hundreds of thousands of applicants for the Dragon Kingdom. Before the apocalypse, this number might have only represented the daily international flight capacity. However, in this post-apocalyptic world, international communication has essentially been severed.
Faced with such a large volume of passenger requests, it remains a significant burden for the Dragon Kingdom. After all, a year ago, there were no commercial airports left; all had been converted into military airfields used by the Air Force for combat operations. Relying on transport aircraft to move personnel is still a very troublesome situation.
However, the Imperial Guards of the Dragon Kingdom fear neither hardship nor difficulty. In a short period of time, they transported all the talents from other countries who applied for the Dragon Kingdom's research program.
