Chapter 568: Chapter 562: I Kneel Before You

Indeed, the size of the port is finite, and there remains another difficult issue. When it was originally constructed, nobody could have predicted the port would turn out this way. None would have thought that Floral Island would be lifted about twenty meters high due to an earthquake. Therefore, both the docks against the shore and those stretching out into the water, used for mooring warships, are now at least twenty-five to six meters above the water surface.

Not to mention that all the parts of these structures adjacent to the water are vertically extended. To utilize them would require enormous reconstruction work. On the positive side, the airport was unaffected and is ready for use. As Floral Island has been lifted, the lowest part of the encircling coral reef is around thirty meters above sea level, indicating the internal Lagoon Expanse will become an even better shelter from the wind. The surrounding ring is essentially a natural breakwater.

However, the port now looks somewhat odd because all the ships are not allowed to approach this port. It’s completely unable at the moment to dock any ships. To anchor, they must beach directly at the sandy place on the southwest corner. Otherwise, there will be no place for anchoring at the spots where the docks used to be. The elevation of over twenty meters makes the docked rafts seem like cliffs. How does one climb that?

After taking a tour around Floral Island, most eyes have turned toward this port, knowing that if it is to be put into use, an inevitable fact would be that the entire port must be reconstructed. Although it’s unclear how much funds Finn Lewis has put into the construction of this port, it mustn’t be a small amount. The construction materials used in the whole port are slightly different from traditional reinforce concrete materials, like these docks, for instance.

Upon approaching, one would find that the parts which appear to be made of reinforced concrete now exhibit a pale blue hue. It’s grey-bluish, with some gleaming bits scattered within, dense and unnoticeable unless observed closely. A reporter tried to strike the dock with something on board, and the dull sound gave an incredibly sturdy feeling, hurting the hand with the shock, yet no trace was left on the dock.

All of the base and port can be handed over for use now. As for the other half of the port, Finn’s site could accommodate some civilian vessels as well as cargo ships.

The construction under the sea is still going on. Only the upper portion that is currently completed includes a passageway to the underwater spacecraft. The remaining undersea section is yet to be completed. It requires engineering robots to continue constructing there.

As Jack Lewis and others began to discuss, the yacht exchanged by Finn Lewis had also arrived in Celeston City. The volume of Finn’s yacht is not that huge. Although still one of the original types, its size isn’t enormous, unlike those tycoon yachts which are almost as big as an aircraft carrier—considering them luxury cruise ships. Finn also had the idea of getting one before, but reconsidering it, a huge one would indeed require lots of logistics personnel.

That’s not to say the logistics personnel required to operate the ship. If it’s just about operating the ship, it can totally be run by intelligence. But for such a large cruise, with only dozens of people on board, it would be too empty and unnecessary. A cruise is fun when there are lots of people. So, the yacht Finn exchanged for has a length of only about fifty meters and width of a dozen or so meters, encompassing three storeys. Its appearance is slightly different from common cruises.

And its performance isn’t needed to be explained. Definitely advanced, exchanged things are never outdated. If it is outdated, Finn wouldn’t need it.

“Wanna join me?” After contemplating, Finn gave Emma Lewis a call, feeling that Kay Lee and Fishy Wells would definitely come along. Finn simply called Emily Lewis, Scholar Lewis and several others as well. The left ones are his close friends—Daniel Pan, Peak Blair, David Hale, Howard Roberts, and Bright James. The other personnel would be T800 and T1000. The whole ship could accommodate about fifty or sixty people. Except for his friends, the remaining robots are just for show.

To outsiders, this is the normal number! For such a large cruise, accommodating over a hundred people is quite normal. Dozens of people are considered to be few. As for Emma, Finn hesitated for a moment and thought he should make a call. Once Finn made a decision, he would not change it. freёwebnoѵel.com

“Why not? But you go to apply for leave for me.” Emma confidently said.

Finn shrugged his shoulders, nodded, and said, “Come to Celeston City’s port tomorrow morning then. I’ll send someone to pick you up.” Finn was not afraid of Emma meeting Kay Lee. What was destined to happen would happen eventually—just a matter of sooner or later. So why not make it sooner?

“Got it.” Emma Lewis left a sentence and hung up the phone.

Now Finn is set to depart to Floral Island, officially inaugurating Floral Island. However, the activities on Floral Island haven’t ceased these days, and various supply ships have arrived one after another. Having received Finn’s call, the original preparation to recall the fleet is paused, leaving a small fleet, including a 052d missile destroyer, a 054a frigate, and a supply ship, anchored in the port. The first batch of marine corps from the mainland has started the selection. Upon Finn’s arrival at Floral Island, they will land directly at Floral Island’s airport from the mainland via military transport aircraft.

To be honest, Finn wouldn’t dare immediately let civilian pilots land there. It would be better to first leave it to the military pilots. Although the runway is very wide and long enough, equivalent to a standard runway, the view from above is sea flanking the runway on both sides. It’s mentally different from those on the ground.

The next morning, Finn and the others arrived early at the dock. The first ones to hurry over there were Daniel Pan and others. Seeing Finn and Kay Lee coming over, Daniel Pan among them greeted, “Hello, Mr. Finn, Mrs. Lee.”

“How come it’s only you guys here? Where’s Mr. Humphrey?” Finn looked around perplexedly. It seemed that only the five of them, including Daniel Pan, came here, but Mr. Humphrey did not show up.

“Who knows? Mr. Humphrey has been nowhere to be found these days, Mr. Finn, you’ve got to stand for us, he has abandoned the organization.” Daniel Pan instantly complained.
