Chapter 195: Hot Air Balloon
"Hot air balloon?" Chen Mu pondered for a moment and asked, "The basket is not a problem, but do we have the materials to make the balloon?"
"Normal hot air balloons are made of reinforced nylon or Dacron, which we don't have now, but we don't need something so professional as we are not embarking on a global journey. The thin plastic after being reduced in weight by Lu Shanshan will suffice," Tang Jing explained.
Chen Mu further inquired, "And we still need a powerful heat source for propulsion, right? Is Captain Ban's three-legged cat level enough?"
Dong Junwei clenched her teeth beside them.
"Though it's a bit weak, with our current size, it should work," Tang Jing replied.
The sound of clenching teeth became more apparent.
Tang Jing added, "However, I don't intend to use heat to lift the hot air balloon."
"Hmm?"
"While it's possible, it has poor safety performance and is not stable enough, especially as our control over temperature is not up to that requirement."
"Without heat, can it still be called a hot air balloon?" Chen Mu wondered.
"As long as it can fly, right?"
"Alright, then what's the alternative?"
"For that, we'll rely on Lu Shanshan," Tang Jing said, steering the conversation in a different direction. Instead, she asked Chen Mu, "You mentioned earlier that you can manipulate gases now?"
"I can only sense it a little."
Ever since successfully experimenting with liquids, Chen Mu had been focusing on this aspect. Apparently, if his ability could truly influence the air, its impact would be revolutionary, especially in combat situations—it would be like invisible murder.
Of course, even if he managed to change the shape of the air, it was practically imperceptible and couldn't influence anything else.
Still, Chen Mu persisted in experimenting daily.
Finally, one day, when he was "energizing" the air, he suddenly felt like he had caught something with his hands.
It was an indescribable feeling, as if the intangible and colorless air had suddenly acquired substance.
Although that sensation quickly vanished, this success at least indicated that this path was feasible.
He immediately informed Tang Jing about this development.
Tang Jing didn't say much, just encouraging him to continue based on his intuition.
Today, Tang Jing brought up this matter again, and at first, Chen Mu was a bit puzzled, but he quickly understood, "You mean... Lu Shanshan can also do it?"
Tang Jing smiled and said, "If she can manipulate air to reduce its weight, then it can easily be achieved, right?"
"Yeah."
"What about you?" Chen Mu asked He Ying.
"Me?"
"I've noticed that your speed hasn't improved in the past few days," Chen Mu said.
"Yeah," He Ying nodded and looked somewhat troubled. "It seems like I've hit a bottleneck."
"Maintaining one-tenth of your weight for five minutes is already impressive," Chen Mu comforted.
"Not beating you means it's not good enough," He Ying, who had never won once, looked fierce.
"Yeah, keep going," Chen Mu said indifferently.
A cheerful meow came from outside the door, followed by the sound gradually fading away.
Chen Mu asked, "Is Du Jiajia not tired of playing with the cats?"
He Ying snorted, "How could that be? She can take a walk outside every day, still from the perspective of a cat. Would she ever get tired of that?"
"Is she still experiencing dizziness?"
"It's said that she has gotten used to it, and now Little Bai can even run and climb fences and grass..."
"But she still can't control the route," Chen Mu interjected.
"Hehe, that's true. But if she could, wouldn't that be too much? What about other people's freedom?" He Ying chuckled.
Chen Mu smiled.
Indeed, Du Jiajia's ability, from the current perspective, was enviable. Just the scope of her activities far exceeded that of ordinary people. However, because it had been a short time, Dong Junwei still didn't allow others to ride the "cat bus," which made Zhao Xiaoyan and others eager to try it.
He Ying was about to say something when, at that moment, a string of bell sounds came from near the door.
