Ten minutes later, in the machinery warehouse of the scientific research ship [Silver Shadow].
"Is this it?" Paramedis looked at the huge black box in front of him and expressed curiosity: "What can such a big toy do?"
"This is the result of Great Britain's research a few years ago, [subspace generator]. It is a technology obtained by reverse engineering from the database of the ancient god-human race in the Turkic Swamp."
"Eh? This?" Paramedis looked back and forth around the huge black square box that was taller than him, and became even more curious: "This thing can create subspace by itself without the intervention of a magician? Magic doesn't
Does it all require the intervention of a magician to activate?"
"Normally, yes. Most magic requires quantum interference in the magician's brain in order to be activated correctly. But this is not always the case.
[Border Technique] can be activated without the intervention of a magician. It only needs to maintain electricity to continuously generate a barrier.
[Boundary Generator] is a technology that existed thousands of years ago, and...it's embarrassing to say that it was inherited from ancient people." Vivian replied: "The view of modern magic researchers is that,
Most simple magic can probably be activated by equipment, and manual intervention is not necessary. It's just that we haven't found the correct activation method yet."
"I see. So this is the [correct method] to activate subspace without relying on human intervention." The Leopard Warrior touched the so-called [subspace generator], and the black box had a strange metallic feel to the touch.
, neither cold nor warm. Palamedes didn't even know what the structure was inside. He felt that there were a lot of solid structures inside the equipment, and the entire cube should be extremely heavy.
"In retrospect, there is also a huge subspace inside the wall of the world. Some kind of device expands the space inside to an incredible extent. Surely that can exist forever without human intervention?"
"After all, it is the technology of the ancients." Succubus nodded and said: "I heard that there is similar technology in Skid Plattney's Ark, which can expand the space inside the ship. That technology can even interfere with the positive and negative entropy of subspace.
To expand or reduce the space in a specific room in the ship at will. That should be a much more advanced technology than the [subspace generator] technology we currently know. If possible, I really want to dismantle that ship
Come and study it carefully. It's a pity that people can't let me study the ship in depth... Okay, I'm going too far. In short, the plan is to take this equipment into the storm, and then charge it to keep it going.
Earthly release of subspace, nothing more."
"Isn't there a huge demand for electricity?"
"Of course it's big. After all, it needs to create enough subspace to slow down the advance of the storm. Both the power demand and the consumption of magic power are huge."
"Can the Silver Shadow's engine provide such a huge amount of power?"
"So I also prepared some extra small toys." Vivian walked to the side of the warehouse and lifted a covering cloth.
It turned out that there were a bunch of glass jars neatly arranged side by side on both sides of the warehouse. Inside the jars were things that shone like gold. But Palamedes knew that it was not gold. That thing might be hundreds of times more valuable than gold.
They are highly refined [Thunder Stones].
Vivian must have used some extreme means to purify and compress the thunderstone crystals to the extreme. The original golden crystals almost no longer looked like crystals. They looked like some kind of heavy metal.
Layers upon layers, infinitely superimposed in a very small space.
These are installed in glass. The bottom end is a base for collecting electricity. There are countless wires on both sides of the base, connecting equipment to each other. They should be some kind of high-energy storage batteries.
"Is the technology of Luna Steel..." Paramedis understood instantly: "It can actually be used to compress lightning stones."
"Help Segrad. The kid became very keen on this after hearing my plan. He probably wanted to see how far the Thunder Stone could be compressed by Luna Steel's technology." Weiwei An replied: "
The result was very successful. These compressed batteries made of [Moon Thunder Stone] are more powerful than the previously refined thunder stones and can store hundreds of times more electrical energy. Just the small column of batteries in front of me is enough to maintain
A spaceship sails for more than ten hours."
The battery of that "column" is, as Vivian described it, cylindrical, and the glass container is filled with Luna Thunderstone. Each column of battery is not as thick as Palamedes's waist;
Counting the bases together, their height is only one inch higher than Vivian. And there are 24 columns of batteries on both sides of the warehouse, for a total of 48 columns. Assuming that they are full of energy, this is very amazing.
Electricity reserves.
"With so much electricity, there shouldn't be anything to worry about, right?" Palamedes asked.
"No. Even so, it's still worrying. [Silver Shadow] will consume a lot of energy when passing through the storm, and this [subspace generator] is also a big consumer of electricity." Vivian shook her head and said: "Under ideal conditions
, of course, let the [Silver Shadow] directly cut off the warehouse after penetrating the storm, throw the [Subspace Generator] in the storm, and let it continue to generate subspace on its own. We drove the [Silver Shadow] to evacuate.
.But will things go smoothly——"
"It's definitely possible. Be optimistic." The Leopard Warrior advised.
"Palami, you have to know... there are at least two worst-case scenarios: either the ship runs out of energy and sinks, is caught in the storm and flies away, and crashes somewhere in the Mediterranean; or we can't even escape from that storm.
, have been trapped in it...and then encountered a general attack by the Knights of the Round Table. No matter what the situation is, it will be difficult for us to survive."
"Can't you use your teleportation spell? How about using that to escape at the last moment?"
"The teleportation technique I use is a teleportation technique commonly used by succubi. The principle is to turn us into particles to move quickly and then reorganize somewhere. The prerequisite for smooth reorganization is that there is no interference during the transmission process. And that [Numerate Greatness]
Storm] is a very strong source of interference, and my teleportation technique naturally has no way of penetrating that. Being involved in that intense photon storm during the teleportation process means that the particles in our body will be permanently scattered and can no longer be reorganized.
.That means death."
Death. This cold word stimulated Palamedes' nerves and made the big cat swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"Of course, I am still prepared for the worst case scenario. I asked Seglade to make us a rescue capsule, whose outer wall is made of Luna steel. That kind of rescue capsule should be enough to last for a few minutes in the storm.
, rather than being broken into pieces." Vivian smiled bitterly and said: "Whether the rescue capsule can escape from the [simulated great storm] within a few minutes depends on luck."
However, in fact, as long as you are caught in the storm, everything has to be left to fate. If you are lucky, the storm will throw out the rescue capsule and let it fall on the Mediterranean Sea. If you are unlucky, the rescue capsule will be caught by the storm and surround it.
It flew until the hardness of Luna Steel could no longer support it and the entire rescue capsule was torn to pieces.
"Hopefully we'll never have to use something like that," Palamedes said.
"I hope." His wife repeated his words, and then sighed: "Okay, let's go to the bridge. After confirming with Great Britain, it's time to start the battle."
"I'm sorry, it's all because of my willfulness..."
"No, I can understand your thinking. If I were you, I would do the same willful thing." Vivian reached out and touched Palamedes' cat face: "Don't worry. We will save it."
That city might be able to save millions of civilians who have not yet had time to evacuate. I know the virtues of that country. No. I know the virtues of these human nations. In the face of inevitable disasters,
In front of them, the first thing they give up is the common people at the bottom of society. This has always been the case throughout history."
"Then we can't let this ugly history happen again." Paramedis put his arm around Vivian's waist and left the machinery warehouse together.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" King Arthur's face was reflected on the holographic screen in the bridge, "All we need is the performance of your ship. You don't need to take the risk yourself. If necessary, you can let others
It is your place to pilot this ship into the storm."
"No, let's forget it." Vivian said: "The operating system of [Silver Shadow] is very complicated. I'm afraid no one else can control it except me. What's more, I don't want others to touch mine."
Ship. Your people will definitely not know how to cherish my ship. They will just use it as a tool and then let it crash in the storm."
King Arthur did not answer, because he knew that at least half of what Vivian said was right.
"In this case, I can only wish you good luck." He said, "Please be sure to come back safely."
"Of course." Vivian smiled and cut off the communication.
"Unlink the Dawn." She operated the control panel to separate the two ships.
"Eve, if I don't come back within two hours, the identity of the acting captain will be handed over to Bereld." Palamedes also said.
"Yes, acting captain." Dawn's artificial intelligence navigation system replied.
"Don't worry, Mr. Palamedes." Bereld also said: "I will take the responsibility to protect this ship and not let it get into trouble."
"Then please." Palamedes also cut off the communication.
"Let's get started," he said to his wife Vivian.
The succubus nodded, "Start the engine and move forward at a slight speed. [Star Armor] starts charging."
Paramedis couldn't help but smile knowingly. The so-called [Star Armor] is actually the dragon scales of the Star Dragon Evil Star. Vivian used the modified dragon scales to cover the outer shell of the ship and charged it
and other methods to further strengthen the toughness of the dragon scales, and finally make the hull hard enough to pass through the great storm. This is the secret of the [Silver Shadow] being able to survive in that terrible photon storm.
But Vivian actually gave the ship's hull a special name for its defense system... This was something Palamedes never expected.
"Why are you laughing? Are you making fun of my naivety?" Vivian rolled her eyes at Palamedes.
"No. I just think you are... loving?"
"So, don't make fun of me." Vivian blushed and pushed the boat's control lever hard at the same time.
The Silver Shadow began to accelerate. Its hull gradually changed from silver to a luxurious light gold due to charging. The strengthened hull itself also carefully entered the [Nimulated Great Storm]. Within a few seconds, the ship
The shadow was completely swallowed up by the violent wind composed of photon turbulence.
