Chapter 21: The Fall
What is Lingyuan?
After coming to this plane, Zhou Ming has been exploring this question.
And use various methods to try to use scientific means to explore the essence of the spirit element.
With the help of the system, he has gained quite a bit of understanding and gain.
Lingyuan particle is a kind of existence with energy carrier and particle properties, somewhat similar to "photon".
However, spirit particles are smaller than photons and have more energy than photons.
A miraculous phenomenon is that the spirit particle has no speed under the normal state, but once the energy is obtained, the speed of the spirit particle can be instantly accelerated to 30 times the speed of light.
And Lingyuan particles, which have the property of fusion, can combine with some molecules and atoms in the air and transfer momentum to molecules and atoms...... According to the momentum balance, so that molecules, atoms, can obtain a certain velocity.
Each molecule or atom can absorb far more than one "spirit particle", so theoretically speaking, as long as there are enough spirit particles, molecules and atoms can be accelerated to a degree far beyond the speed of light...... Because the spirit particles also have the property of "counteracting gravity".
Zhou Ming, who discovered these characteristics, became extremely excited, is there any more exaggerated particle? Under the blow of an object with a speed of more than 30 times the speed of light, even a peanut will have extremely terrifying destructive power, and even because the speed of the blow exceeds that of light, the person who is hit may not be able to react at all, and he has been killed.
Therefore, the existence of spirit particles makes the individuals of this plane have extremely strong destructive power.
If you can concentrate the Lingyuan particles into a very small density according to the principle of shooting weapons, and then excite them violently, you can make a weapon like the "Lingyuan Gun", and the bullets fired will never be less powerful than modern firearms.
According to the same principle, the tube of the "Lingyuan Gun" will be lengthened and the caliber will be increased, and the lethality will be increased by several levels from a gun to a cannon.
However, two technical problems can be said to be very difficult to solve.
Take the "Lingyuan Gun" as an example, in order to give kinetic energy to the "bullet", it is necessary to make the bullet be able to hold enough "Lingyuan particles" in order to achieve acceleration.
This requires the selection of easy-to-fuse materials and high-fusion materials.
Spirit coins have become the best material for making bullets.
It is better to use than spirit coins, and it is a "spirit brick" with better storage characteristics.
On top of the "Spirit Brick", there is also a "Spirit Crystal" with higher value and better characteristics, which can maximize the power of the "Spirit Yuan Gun".
Therefore, there is a saying that is very appropriate, "When the gun goes off, the gold is ten thousand taels", and what the Lingyuan gun fires is "money", which is "gold", which is to use money to kill you.
Although slightly extravagant, the bullet problem was successfully solved, but a more difficult problem lay ahead - energy.
How to give enough energy to a bullet in a short period of time?
Then some people are going to wonder: what is energy? There are all the bullets made of spirit coins, what energy do you need?
Of course you need energy.
The spirit particle itself does not have initial energy, under normal conditions, the initial velocity is basically 0, and it needs to be injected with energy in order to accelerate to a maximum speed of 30 times the speed of light, if the spirit particle itself has huge energy, then all living things, I am afraid they will be killed in an instant.
What kind of energy can add a huge speed to the spirit element particles?
Psychic energy.
It can also be called "thinking ability" and "divine consciousness ability".
That is, the monk's "divine consciousness" can be used as the "energy" of the spirit particles.
Therefore, the system said to Zhou Ming: "Now you should understand, what is the essence of this world? It is not matter, nor is it Lingyuan particles, those are just mediums...... The essence of this world is the spirit and the soul, and the soul is the source of energy in this plane. ”
"Therefore, this is an idealist plane, science can only analyze its superficial things, and the core essence is still to be perceived with your soul. ”
Zhou Ming nodded, no wonder the system said that his cultivation speed was slow, because the level of "state of mind" was not enough, and his qualifications also limited the improvement of his state of mind, so it was suggested that he change to a role with good qualifications as soon as possible.
However, in this game, he has already seen some hope, the hope of laying a good foundation, so he decided to continue to try...... There is no opposition from the system.
Back to the question just now, the problem of energy, how to solve it?
Directly instilling "spiritual power" into the "bullet" can give it an initial velocity, but the action time is too short, and with Zhou Ming's cultivation, the bullet can be accelerated to the speed of sound at most...... It's not as powerful as a god's crossbow.
There needs to be an energy storage device that accumulates "mental power" and then instantaneously introduces it into the bullet, like the bowstring of a crossbow, giving the bullet extremely high speed.
The question is that the energy of "spiritual power" is mysterious and mysterious, formless and incorporeal, can it be stored with things?
I really can.
A thing called "Soul Stone" can store some divine consciousness information, exercise inheritance, and even the soul of the deceased, and store the spiritual power itself, so naturally there is no problem.
The main problem is that the price of the soul stone is too expensive, and the fist size actually costs 1 million spirit coins.
But considering the unknown crisis that Limburg Town might encounter, Zhou Ming still gritted his teeth and bought 1 large and 10 small soul stones through the channel of a merchant, spending a total of 1.5 million spirit coins...... Of course, he traded 150 large vanity mirrors.
With these 11 soul stones that act as energy storage devices, Zhou Ming led people to make 10 "Lingyuan Guns" and 1 "Lingyuan Cannon".
During the test firing process, Zhou Ming was very satisfied with the power shown by the Lingyuan gun and the Lingyuan cannon, especially the Lingyuan cannon, the "Lingyuan cannonball" was shot, with a discharge speed of more than 10,000 kilometers per second, which could smash a small hill - this is caused by the explosion reaction caused by the collision between the high-speed spiritual brick cannonball and the substance.
In short, the power of the Lingyuan Cannon has completely reached the level that satisfies Zhou Ming.
Of course, every time he launched, the spiritual power poured into the soul stone was beyond Zhou Ming's imagination, and even his spiritual power alone was not enough, and he needed more than a dozen of his students to help inculcate it together.
And after the powerful shot is fired, the high concentration of spiritual power and the huge recoil force will cause some cracks on the surface of the soul stone, so that it cannot be used indefinitely.
But in the face of the strong attack of the Netherworld Ancestor, taking advantage of the opportunity to hover in the air, Zhou Ming, who had already vowed to kill this demon at all costs, did not hesitate to order the cannon!
"Boom!"
After the high-speed cannon was discharged, a muzzle storm was instantly generated, and the gun truck, together with Zhou Ming and others who were controlling it behind, was blown up and rolled and flew upside down.
A beam of white light, like a rainbow flying out, is a direct air target outside the index.
This Changhong, the speed is amazing, and under the violent friction with the air, the momentum is also extremely amazing, which is mixed with sonic boom, light explosion, and the heat caused by friction also makes this Changhong brighter and brighter, more and more red.
Moreover, the structure of the spirit brick shell is not a conical shape with a good resistance reduction effect, but is polished into a quadrangular pyramid type, and the resistance surface is larger, so that the longer its range, the larger the air wall pulled out of the air, and in the back, it will even become a "surface kill" weapon.
And the Netherworld Ancestor's magic weapon Black Cloud is more than ten meters in diameter, the target is very large, and it is only three or four miles away from the Lingyuan Cannon, coupled with the assistance of high-precision sights, the probability of the cannonball hitting is extremely small.
With the speed of the cannonball's discharge, the target three or four miles away will arrive within a thousandth of a second, and the Netherworld Ancestor has no time to dodge at all.
And that's exactly what happened.
The moment the Spirit Yuan Cannon was fired, the Netherworld Ancestor felt a sense of extreme danger.
At this time, he was in the midst of pride, clutching the prey he had been longing for all these years, but suddenly found that the attack was actually trying to kill him along with his prey, and the Nether Ancestor fell into a ten-thousandth of a second decision.
Is it subconsciously protecting yourself?
Or do you subconsciously protect your hard-to-reach prey?
After a ten-thousandth of a second, he subconsciously made a decision: the prey that he finally got his hands on must not die!
So he put down his black hand, and moved down a little distance along with the prey in his hand.
It took two ten-thousandths of a second.
In the third ten-thousandth of a second, the Netherworld Ancestor regretted it, frantically ran the magic trick, strengthened the protection of the body, and a voice in his heart shouted: "Run!
"Boom!"
Within a few ten-thousandths of a second, the Netherworld Ancestor, who had no time to escape at all, was directly hit by the spirit brick cannonball.
After a loud bang, a mushroom cloud appeared in the sky.
The thick black cloud, in the shock wave of light and heat, instantly washed away without a trace, clean, as if it had been purified.
Countless artifact parts splattered down, mixed with stumps and severed arms, and some messy things, all of which fell to the ground.
What is shocking is that the Netherworld Ancestor is not dead, he lost a leg, a hand, and an eye, and after falling to the ground, he quickly got up, jumped on the ground, and ran towards the north of the city in a panic.
"Phew!"
A sniper bolt from the wall pinned him to the ground, immobilizing.
"Kill!"
"Kill him!"
Several squads of the Township Protectors stationed in the north of the city rushed towards him, shooting countless arrows at the ragged and thin old man.
By the time Zhou Ming arrived with a few students, the Netherworld Ancestor was already full of crossbow arrows, and he couldn't die anymore.
The Netherworld Ancestor, who had crisscrossed the continent for hundreds of years, was notorious and infamous, and it was distorted, and it fell.
