"Dinas, please rest first. Professor Erica is looking for me."
Li Nuo walked into the room, ignored the only bed in the cabin, and pulled out the chair opposite the bed and sat down with a normal expression.
Emergency ships are used for emergencies and have limited cabin space. There is only one bed, one wooden chair, and one table in the room, and even the bathroom is shared.
Dinas glanced at the layout of the room, and finally sat on the edge of the bed with a hint of nervousness, her body slightly stiff.
Li Nuo grabbed a handful of candies from his magic pocket, and took out a few cans and bottles of canned drinks produced in Gathering City and placed them on the table.
"If you are hungry, just eat something. I will go to the Court of Silence to find the professor first. She has been calling me over."
"Yeah, okay. I'll help you guard it."
Li Nuo closed his eyes, his consciousness rose, and he entered the courtyard of silence enveloped by the indigo mist.
It was still the small classroom decorated separately. This time, Li Nuo saw Comini here.
Komini was also summoned by Professor Erica and entered the Court of Silence in the form of consciousness.
When Li Nuo arrived, Comini and Erica had been waiting for a while.
"Sorry, it took some time to settle Dinas." Li Nuo smiled apologetically.
Comini nodded faintly.
Professor Erica waved her hand and said:
"It's okay, it hasn't been too long. Now that you and Comini are here, let me get down to business."
Professor Erica took out two stacks of manuscripts from her magic pocket, one for Li Nuo and one for Comini.
"The interstellar fleet you are about to face has been recorded by the Star Filter. There are magical images sent from the Tomb of the Witches on the file. You should take a look first."
Li Nuo opened the document, and a magical image including the entire interstellar fleet appeared on the first page of the document.
Fifty alien spacecraft, one large and forty-nine small.
The largest one is the disc-shaped aircraft that appeared in Berkeley's dream.
This aircraft was temporarily named the disc interstellar ship by the group of witch mausoleums, or the disc ship for short.
The text below the magic image shows that the diameter of the disc ship is close to 2,000 meters, and the height of the cylindrical hull bulging upward in the center of the disc is more than 800 meters, making it a well-deserved giant.
Its purpose and function are not yet clear.
However, some clues can still be seen from its position in the team.
The disc ship was protected in the center of the team by forty-nine smaller starships.
There are obviously firepower devices on the smaller starships. There is no doubt that these forty-nine starships are offensive, and they are specifically responsible for protecting the disc ships.
Thinking that the Deep Space United Mining Group regarded magic ships as plunder targets, the function of the disc ships emerged.
It is a cargo ship built to house magic ships. Its characteristics include large content, high load capacity, slow travel, and lack of self-protection capabilities.
The goal of the Unas Ring is to capture at least 10 Deep Space Consolidated Mining members alive and capture at least one starship. These people and objects will be sent to the Unas Ring after the war and become the subjects of the deep space joint mining study by wizards in the native world.
Even if it would incur retaliation from Deep Space United Mining, Unas Ring must do this. Because of the shortcomings of the "Metal Thinking" meditation method, there are already signs of shaking the foundation of the Unas Ring.
There are very, very many wizards who master this meditation method, and most of them have high combat effectiveness, long lifespans, and hold key positions in the Unas Ring.
If the flaws of the "Metal Thinking" meditation method are not eliminated, the metal wizards who study and graduate from the Hotams Metal Branch will not be able to gain peace for a day.
At such an important juncture, Unas Ring is bound to capture this alien space fleet that invades the home world.
Let other combat wizards do the fighting.
Professor Erica called Li Nuo and Comini here for another matter:
"According to the travel experience of Star Witches, star fleets generally have energy shield launchers. This ship equipment can emit energy shields to protect the ships. The effect of the ship shield is the same as the magic shield of our wizards Similar. The Star Witches of the Pure Light Tribunal have confirmed that their spells have a very weak effect on ship shields, far from being able to break the spell.
"Currently, only the "Shield Disintegrating Ray" can have a miraculous effect on ship shields. The Ministry of Magic gave me a secret order to test the spell-breaking effect of the Silent Magic to see if it could work against Starfleet's shields. "
Erica took out two magic scrolls and held them in front of her:
"I temporarily made two high-power "Silent Steel Crossbow" summoning scrolls. The Silent Steel Crossbow sealed in the scroll is already filled with Silent Magic, and it can fire steel crossbow arrows carrying Silent Magic. The steel crossbow is enchanted, and the crossbow string is also made of high-quality magic alloy. The matching enchanted crossbow arrows give up the armor-piercing effect and greatly enhance the flight distance. The maximum range of the steel crossbow has therefore reached 55 kilometers, and the crossbow arrow will not fall within the maximum range.
"I have assigned 15 crossbow bolts to each of you. Each of you has 15 chances to send these enchanted crossbow bolts to the shield of the starship. After the crossbow arrow hits the shield, if a strong and obvious gray fire breaks out , that means the spell-breaking effect has taken effect normally, and all other colors of fire mean that the spell-breaking effect has failed."
Erica said to Comini:
"I will send the scroll to you via messenger later, and you and Li Nuo will each get one."
"Okay, Professor," Comini responded.
Erica's tone became solemn:
"This is the first time that the wizards have fought against the interstellar fleet of the outer space forces in the inner star sky. You must be more careful and pay attention to protect yourself. If you really can't find the opportunity to launch the steel crossbow, I won't blame you. You guys. After all, judging from the results of the Star Witches’ battles with the Starfleet in the outer space, the Star Witches’ winning rate is very low, only about 11%.”
"So low?" Comini frowned, looking worried.
Li Nuo was also a little confused by this number.
The ten-ring pure light wizard can use the "Ring of Tranquility" to suppress nuclear explosions.
The Star Witch, who is one level higher than the Ten-ring Wizard, should be stronger. No matter how powerful Starfleet is, can they suppress a nuclear explosion?
In Li Nuo's impression, it shouldn't be possible.
But why are the Ten Ring Wizards and Star Wizards able to suppress nuclear explosions, but they cannot defeat the Star Fleet, which cannot suppress nuclear explosions?
"Professor, judging from the magic images, these interstellar ships don't seem to be particularly powerful." Li Nuo looked down at the document in his hand, then raised his head again and asked:
"Facing such an enemy, why is the Star Witch's winning rate so bad?"
Erica was silent for half a second, sighed softly and said:
"Okay, let me tell you two a secret. Don't tell anyone else, because this secret is blocked by the witch mausoleum and the star witches."
Seeing the professor's solemn expression, the lines on Comini's face tightened a bit, and Li Nuo's back straightened a bit.
"The star filter is not only a barrier that divides the inner starry sky and the outer starry sky, it is also a watershed related to magical power. Assuming that our wizard's magic power within the inner starry sky is 100 points, then after passing through the star filter and entering After the alien sky, our magic power will only be 20 points at most.”
Komini shuddered, his eyes widened, and his breathing became a little rapid.
Li Nuo frowned slightly, thinking carefully about the reason.
Erica said in a deep voice:
"If this secret is made public, it will completely extinguish the enthusiasm of wizards to go to the outer space. In order to continue to strengthen the power of the Star Witches in the outer space, the Tomb of the Witches and many Star Witches have to keep this secret secret."
Erica weighed the magic scroll in her hand:
"Let's stop here first. Remember, don't leak the secret I just said, otherwise I won't be able to protect you."
Comini recovered from his brief shock. She bowed slightly towards Erica and left first.
When Li Nuo was about to leave, Erica came to him and warned:
"Don't tell Dinas, promise me, okay? Although I believe that neither you nor Dinas will tell anyone, the fewer people who know such a secret, the better."
"Yes, Professor, please don't worry, I won't talk too much." Li Nuo nodded and disappeared in the indigo mist.
His consciousness dropped rapidly and he returned to his body. After Li Nuo opened his eyes, he saw Dinas digging into the canned fruit in her mouth.
Halfway through chewing, she suddenly noticed that Li Nuo had opened his eyes, so she subconsciously stopped and looked at Li Nuo. Her left cheek bulged high, with a large piece of fruit hidden underneath.
"Hehe." Dinas pursed her lips in embarrassment and smiled, muttering with the scent of canned fruit:
“I’m a little hungry”
Li Nuo was amused by her appearance.
He stood up and gently poked the other person's bulging cheek with his fingertips:
"Eat slowly. I'll still have some here after you finish. The cans I brought are enough for us to eat all the way to the Suman Islands."
"Hmm, do you want to go out?" Dinas asked.
"Yes, I'm going to find Comini. Professor Erica has assigned us a task." Li Nuo said as he walked out:
"This mission does not require us to participate in the battle, so you don't have to worry."
"Okay~"
Li Nuo opened the door and walked out, and met Comini who happened to be walking towards him in the corridor.
Komini handed the magic scroll to Li Nuo, and then waved for him to follow:
"Come on, Jarvis. Let's go to the upper deck, where we have a better view and can fire the Silent Bolt."
Li Nuo got the magic scroll and immediately threw out the deconstruction technique.
Wow, awesome.
Li Nuo admired in his heart.
The Silent Steel Crossbow encapsulated in the magic scroll is very powerful, and its item level has reached level 86. No wonder it has such a long range.
Unfortunately, this silent steel crossbow is a consumable. After firing 15 rounds of the matching Silent Crossbow bolts, it will shatter into metal powder all over the ground with a bang.
Professor Erica greeted Paredes, the leader of the law enforcement wizards, in advance. The latter vacated the stern of the upper deck and gave it to Li Nuo and Li Nuo.
After Li Nuo and Comini arrived, they tore open the magic scroll and released the magic on the scroll.
Gray mist like water flowed out from the scroll surface and condensed into a silent steel crossbow in Li Nuo's hand.
This thing is heavy, shaped like a crossbow, one meter long and more than eighty centimeters wide. Without the "Easy Handling" enchantment on the steel crossbow, Li Nuo would probably have a hard time holding it for a long time.
As for the operation of pulling the crossbow string, it was successfully completed with the help of another enchantment effect.
Li Nuo picked it up and simply adapted to the aiming method of the crossbow.
After a little research, Li Nuo realized that there was a reason why Erica used an enchanted steel crossbow instead of a magic wand or an enchanted firearm to fire ammunition rich in silent magic.
The aiming accuracy of the steel crossbow is better than that of the wand, there are not as many parts as firearms, and its overall structure is relatively simple. Using enchantment to process steel crossbows is far more convenient than using enchantment to process firearms.
After comprehensive consideration, the crossbow-shaped enchanted steel crossbow has become the best choice for firing magic ammunition.
Li Nuo held up the steel crossbow and stared at the stars in the sky for a few minutes. A loud thunderous noise suddenly exploded in the starry sky!
Li Nuo was frightened and shrank his neck involuntarily.
Looking towards the source of the sound, the starry sky directly above the magic ship was stirring violently. The artificial stars there disappeared, leaving only a dark night sky.
The black night sky was like a curtain, being roughly rubbed and pulled by the "palms" from the alien sky.
With a series of thunderous roars, the night sky above the magic ship was violently broken.
A strange starry sky with purple-black light appeared at the crack.
This is the first time Li Nuo saw the alien sky.
It was at this moment that he had the illusion of being in a closed container.
The star filter that divides the inner and outer starry sky is like a cardboard box with star dots on the inside. He stood among the cardboard boxes. Someone used a paper cutter to cut a skylight from the outside, and he was able to see the outside of the carton.
The alien sky exposed in front of Li Nuo was a bit strange. Its background was black, but from time to time there would be deep purple strips of light flashing through.
Li Nuo seized the opportunity to observe the outer starry sky and threw deconstruction at the small patch of unfamiliar starry sky.
【system information:】
[You are about to activate the deconstruction technique on the "celestial body with an unknown name". 】
[It is expected to consume 11.2 million trillion energy points, which can increase the deconstruction value to 100%]
【Do you want to activate the deconstruction technique? 】
How many trillions more?
One thousand one hundred and twelve, ten thousand, ten thousand, billion?
Li Nuo couldn't help but open his mouth, stunned by this long series of numbers...
Somehow, the decomposition results related to the "neutrino interstellar communicator" emerged in Li Nuo's mind.
The system introduced that neutrinos hardly react with other substances, and neutrinos have excellent directionality. They will not attenuate during propagation and can achieve long-distance non-relay communication. Based on these excellent characteristics, the neutrino interstellar communicator has become the main communication tool for extraterrestrial forces.
But even such a tool with extremely high communication quality has only 8% signal strength in the wizarding world, and the signal quality is extremely poor.
There is no doubt that something is interfering with the neutrinos.
So what is this thing?
Li Nuo's pupils gradually dilated, and there was a look in his eyes as if he had seen a ghost.
An incredibly dense neutron star.
and, black holes that are far denser than neutron stars.
In Li Nuo's knowledge, there are and only these two extremely dense celestial bodies that can seriously affect neutrinos.
Let’s take a look at the celestial bodies that make up the inner starry sky…
Do they look like planets sucked into a black hole?
So, the wizarding world is actually inside a black hole?
Those alien space creatures and forces that visit this world one after another may not do so voluntarily.
They may have been sucked in by the black hole...
Li Nuo silently launched the deconstruction technique into the outer starry sky, consuming some energy points to see if he could deconstruct anything.
Unfortunately, since the completeness of deconstruction is like a drop in the ocean, he only received a seemingly meaningless string of characters:
