Chapter 140 The Magic Ball Takes Off
Chapter 140 The Magic Ball Takes Off
Xingluo returned to the White Tower, simply drank a few bottles of potion, and began to think about tonight's battle. His injuries were not serious. The only regret was that he let one of the enemy escape. Although the battle was very short, it took him a full month to prepare, not to mention sending a large number of personnel and the Cat Royal Family to collect intelligence.
Except for the first night when he finished carving the two magic circles of silence and concealment, he would go to Luoshen City every day to buy some rare alchemical materials and carve attack magic circles. He didn't feel relieved until the entire ground and the entire wall were covered with his magic circles. With his current ability in magic circles, it was still mainly based on quantity, and he was not doing well in optimizing and upgrading magic circles.
In order to create this opportunity, he specifically asked Xi to pay attention to all the situations of the other family. After learning that their eldest brother was away for a long time and the second brother had gone on a long journey with a young man, he knew that his chance had finally come. Although his strength as a space magician was enough to fight on equal terms with the three earth knights, he did not force his way into the other party's territory.
Instead, he spent a large amount of high-level magic cores to lure the other party into the trap he set. He patiently went out for a "stroll" every day in order to let the other party relax their vigilance. He carefully concealed his strength so that the other party would mistakenly believe that he was an ordinary businessman.
He purchased goods every day and set traps one after another at night. He was like a spider weaving this giant web carefully, waiting for the arrival of prey and always paying attention to the movements of the other family. Just the day before he took action, he confirmed with Xi whether the eldest and the second son were in the family. If so, he would rather let all these arrangements go to waste and would leave without hesitation.
He was not sure he could deal with the Sky Knight, but all his arrangements were finally completed today. Five people all died in this courtyard. The reason why only one person escaped in the end was because two things were beyond his expectations. He underestimated the power and cruelty of the Earth Knight's self-explosion.
Also, Xi's intelligence did not mention the fighting skill of escaping in darkness. As a rare space magician, he actually let the opponent escape. This fighting skill must be extraordinary. In future battles, he still cannot be too confident. If this fighting skill is offensive, then even if he has space magic, he may lose his life.
There was also the Reptile boss who was in charge of taking the task. While Xingluo was taking action, he had someone take care of him. Not only that, through Xi's intelligence, he had taken care of all the contacts of the Luoshen Kingdom, which was equivalent to cutting off their financial resources. The only regret was that one of them still escaped. Xingluo clenched his fists, "Well, I'll let you live a little longer."
Xingluo coughed a few more times when he thought of this. The other party must hate him to the core now, but so what? The two sides had already been fighting to the death. Even if he did not take action, the other party would destroy him as soon as they got the chance. It would be better to strike first so that he could take the initiative.
Now, there are only two sky knights and one earth knight left on the other side. Their strength is not as good as before, and their financial resources have been cut off. They can either rebuild their family network or wait for a chance to seek revenge on him. The latter is more likely. He has decided to stay in this mirage-filled base and not go out. It is a good opportunity to study the satellite launch device.
As expected, Atlantis did not disappoint him. It didn't take long for him to find many people who were good at calculation and astrology. Together with the large number of alchemists recruited by the mercenary group, it should not be too difficult to complete this task.
Xingluo also joined the newly formed team and named this research and development the Sky Eye Project. Then everyone started a lot of measurements, observations and experiments.
Everyone felt that this talented young man was very approachable, had no aristocratic airs, and did not regard himself as a group leader. Moreover, they discovered that this fat man was actually very knowledgeable, and they had a very pleasant time getting along with him, which made them even more motivated. After all, although these knowledgeable people had to work for the nobles to make a living, they were still somewhat proud and believed that these nobles were only relying on the glory of their ancestors.
However, this fat man was obviously very different from those nobles. Not only was he powerful and knowledgeable, he also had some creative ideas. As they got along with him, they admired him and worked harder.
Fortunately, they had the height for the launch orbit, so as long as the power was reached, it would be fine. The object of their experiment was certainly not the rare magic satellite, but a large iron ball of the same weight. After observation and calculation by the top astrologers in the entire Fallen God Kingdom, they constantly corrected the angle required for launch.
The magic satellite itself has a wing similar to an energy receiving device, which will open as long as it enters the predetermined orbit. At the same time, the satellite also has a power system to ensure that it has a certain initial speed after entering the orbit, so that it can ensure that it orbits the planet. It sounds simple, but these designs are the result of Alfred's lifelong research, and he relied on the experience of the Great Magic Era. Many technical difficulties were solved using extremely complex magic arrays.
For the purpose of the experiment, he only needed to launch an iron ball of equal weight and ensure the speed and fuel to see if it could circle the planet. Therefore, he also inlaid magic cores on the iron ball and engraved many magic circles, which can be said to be extremely attentive.
With the joint efforts of everyone, the first magic iron ball was completed, but various data only remained at the calculation stage and needed to be further verified through experiments. The launcher was also completed. This is a device that can give it a certain speed. The fuel is a rare magic core, which contains a lot of energy. Now we only need to adjust the energy output to launch the iron ball.
The sky was clear and Xingluo and the others gathered in front of a launcher that looked like a cannon. Tiffany asked in confusion, "Is this the cannon you mentioned? Why is the muzzle facing upwards?"
Xingluo touched his nose and said, "Well, I want to see if this cannonball can poke a hole in the sky."
Tiffany couldn't help but open her eyes wide and looked at Xingluo suspiciously. Xingluo didn't want to dwell on it too much, so he asked everyone to put the magic iron ball in, and at the same time adjusted the angle and energy output, preparing to fire into the sky.
"10 minutes to launch"
"Everyone, please get ready."
"The magic circle is normal."
"The magic core energy warehouse is normal."
"The launch pad is normal."
"The surrounding irrelevant personnel have been evacuated."
"The defensive magic circle has been activated."
……
"Pre-launch preparations complete."
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and the whole place was silent.
At this time, only the sound of countdown echoed in this space.
“5……4……3……2……1……发射!”
