Chapter 41
🕑 Added 2024-06-17 04:53:51 +0000 UTCYou had received the news earlier from D.A.I.S.Y. that the simulations for both of your projects were completed and that you could start the project anytime.
It was definitely good news, considering you had anticipated it would take days to find the optimal configurations. But surprisingly, it was done much sooner.
Knowing that you can start your project, you can't sit still. You quickly send a message to your Mom and Aunt Cass that you are going to the office because of some work.
On second thought, you also send a message to Maggie and MJ. Maggie, because of last night, and MJ because she will eat your head if you don't tell her that you are leaving, even if it is the middle of the night.
With the notifications sent, you leave the house and take your car to drive to Watson Tower.
Soon, you enter Basement 3, your personal workspace and head towards the Simulation room.
"D.A.I.S.Y., show me the simulation results," you speak aloud, eager to see the outcome of your projects.
In response, a holographic image of Earth is generated on the desk, ready to unveil the results.
Before the simulation can start, you notice a flashing light on the wall beside you, indicating an incoming call. You can guess who is calling, as only she has a habit of calling you this late at night.
"How is my Tech Thief doing this night?" you hear as soon as you accept the call. You look up in annoyance at the screen in front of you on the wall.
The one who was looking at you with a mischievous smile was none other than Shuri.
Shuri, the Princess of Wakanda and sister of the Black Panther T'Challa. A genius on par with Toni, she was the reason you told Penny that she's just 'one of the smartest girls' you know. She was the same age as MJ, 16 years old.
In your previous world's MCU, she even became the future Black Panther, the warrior and protector of Wakanda which is the source of Vibranium, and a hidden technological powerhouse located in Africa.
In this world, you got in touch with this Princess due to some special circumstances.
"Can you let it go? It's been 2 years already and you're still stuck on that!" you said, shaking your head in exasperation.
"You tried to hack into Wakanda and steal our tech, so for me, you'll forever be Luke the Tech Thief!" Shuri retorted with a mischievous giggle.
"Suit yourself," you replied with a huff, refocusing on the hologram of the Earth.
"Are you working? Are you making something?" Shuri asked, curiosity evident in her voice as she glanced at the hologram. "If you say please, the great Genius Shuri might agree to help you," she added eagerly.
"It's fine, I've almost completed all the work," you replied as you started the simulation.
"Let me be the judge of that," Shuri said with a smirk.
The simulation begins, depicting a single satellite being placed into orbit, followed swiftly by others until numerous satellites encircle the Earth.
"Hmm, so you're working on sending multiple satellites into Medium Earth orbit and Low Earth orbit. Are these micro ones or nano ones?" Shuri inquires, raising an eyebrow.
"Micro," you reply, your focus still on the simulation. "I'm still not that familiar with Nanotech."
"How many are you planning to send?" Shuri asks, alarmed at the increasing number of satellites.
"100," you respond concisely.
"100? But that would mean that this is a…" Shuri starts, surprised, but you finish her words.
"A Swarm," you say confidently. "A Micro Satellite Swarm that will cover the whole world and will give me real-time data of each and every place on Earth, providing permanent global coverage."
As you speak, the simulation reaches its final stage, depicting 100 satellites with different paths and orbits revolving around the Earth in a coordinated formation.
"This is really fascinating," Shuri said in intrigue. "Are you trying to study Earth's Magnetosphere through this many satellites?"
"No, it will be used mainly for Wide area Coverage, High-Resolution Imaging, Multi-Spectral Imaging, Real-time monitoring, and analysis," you replied with narrowed eyes.
"But even with this many satellites, there still will be a 'lag,' so it won't be exactly real-time," Shuri pointed out with a shake of her head.
"Yes, but for now, I am just looking for coverage and speed," you said as you opened the technical data of the formation.
"Your constellation's path looks fine too; their synchronization rate is really high," Shuri said, observing the data with you.
"Yes, this will be enough for now, I think," you said in satisfaction.
"So, is this the next plan of Watson Technologies for the upcoming years, huh?" Shuri asked with a nod of her head.
"No, this swarm will be launched soon," you said as you rechecked its specs.
"How soon?" Shuri asked, raising her eyebrow.
"If everything works out, then 3 days," you replied simply.
"3 days? How do you plan to manufacture 100 Microsatellites in such a short time? Do you even have a prototype ready?" Shuri asked in complete surprise and disbelief.
"I will tell you how I will do it later; let's first look at this other simulation," you said, avoiding her questions for now, and started the other simulation.
On the table, the Earth's hologram disappeared, and in its place, a mountainous region appeared.
Then your 'Ghostwing' appeared on the mountain, and from its underside, many small flying devices got out of the jet and scattered.
"What are those?" Shuri asked in wonder.
"You will see," you said quietly as the simulation zoomed in on one such device.
The device flies into a narrow pathway in the mountain and finds itself in a cave.
It begins scanning its surroundings, but finding nothing, it continues moving forward.
You watch through multiple simulations of these small flying devices exploring various environments.
"Impressive drone scanners," Shuri mutters, her curiosity piqued. "Do they use Miniature propulsion systems to hover and fly?" she asks you, seeking confirmation.
"Yes, and I prefer the term Bio Probes, as their primary function is to search for biological lifeforms," you respond. This design and device were inspired by the movie 'Incredibles,' so you prefer to keep its original name.
The Micro Satellite Swarm will cover the entire mountain range rapidly, and the Bio Probes will explore areas where satellite imagery is not able to access covertly.
"I figured it out, you're trying to search for Toni!" Shuri exclaimed with an 'aha' face.
"Yes, it's not like I was hiding it," you said, rolling your eyes.
"Now that I remember it, you did talk about how you had spent some time with her, how even D.A.I.S.Y.'s skeletal system was obtained from her," she recalled your words.
"Yeah, she means a lot to me, so I have to find her," you said quietly, your determination shining through.
"Luke, umm, if you want, I-I can help. Wakanda certainly has the technology to-" Shuri starts hesitatingly, but you interrupt her.
"Will your Baba agree?" you ask sarcastically, already knowing the answer.
"No," Shuri said crestfallen, "Baba will not use Wakandan technology for 'outsiders.'"
"It's fine; both technologies would definitely help me find her faster," you give her a reassuring smile, not wanting to make her feel bad.
"I can help you with that too. In some weeks, we can make even nanosatellites for sure, and that Bio Probe's scanning range can also be improved," she offered, her resolve evident in her expression.
"I know that, but I don't have time right now. This is all I can come up with in a night, and I don't want to spend more time just updating it," you reply, shaking your head.
"In a night? Seriously? When did you become this smart?" Shuri asked, her eyes widening in disbelief as she looked at you.
"Well, many things have changed during these days. Let me show you how I will produce 100 microsatellites in 3 days," you replied.
You stepped out of the room and returned with a box full of different metals from your workbench, placing it on the table.
"D.A.I.S.Y., show me the detailed schematic of the MicroSatellite," you commanded, and a detailed schematic appeared on the display in front of you.
"Now watch carefully," you instructed as you placed your hand on the box, focusing intently on the schematic.
"How?" Shuri asked in alarm as the different metals started molding into shapes on their own.
You visualized all the parts coming together according to the schematics, and as your mental visualization completed, you looked down at the table.
On the table lay a 10x10x10 cm metal box.
"How did you do it? How did you make a microsatellite so rapidly? More importantly, how did the metal move on its own and mold like clay?" Shuri asked you incredulously.
"Well, Shuri, I have Powers now," you smirked at her shocked face, pleased that your Metal Constructs power worked just as you had seen using your Precognition.
Your mood has improved significantly as the faster you make and employ these devices, the faster you find Toni.
