Act 443 The Sword Hanging in the Sky (Part I)

In the Stormwind Space Launch Site, the modified Long March rocket has been towered on the launch tower, and all preparations are ready, just waiting for the control center to give an order to launch into space.

In the control center, everyone was sitting on their knees, putting the finishing touches on their tasks, except for one person.

An old man in a spacesuit with long gray hair on his head.

"Supreme Mage, it's only the launch stage, and there is still a long time before the component reaches the intended orbit, not to mention that even if you need to conduct a detailed self-test after the orbit is stabilized, you don't need to be in such a hurry."

The Supreme Mage turned around abruptly, grabbed the shoulders of the staff member who had persuaded him, and said excitedly:

"No need!? Don't you understand what this means to us Star Mages!?

That's the truth! It's the root of what we've been seeking!

I have to be ready for everything at this moment, even if it's a minute, I have to get used to this outfit even more! ”

"Alright, well, please don't get excited! Don't get excited! ”

That's right, this person in a spacesuit is none other than the Supreme Mage of the Star Tower, that is, Zhou Baixue's master.

After Zhou Baixue entered the Star Tower, the Supreme Mage did teach his knowledge without reservation, as he had promised before, but because the time was still short, Zhou Baixue only learned some basic things for the time being, and the rest of the content was some popular science introductions.

I have to say that there are indeed a lot of interesting magic in star magic, and after Zhou Baixue submitted a detailed report to the base, the base immediately became interested in one of the magic called [Star Shining Heavenly Waterfall].

To put it simply, [Starlight Celestial Waterfall] is to summon and gather the energy of the stars, triggering a magic that falls from the sky like a pillar of light like the Milky Way falling to the ground to strike the enemy.

According to the newly excavated documents, the attack power of this magic is very amazing, and it is a magic specially developed by star mages to eliminate top powerhouses!

If the literature is not exaggerated, the technicians at the base even believe that the power of this magic is comparable to that of a directional version of a nuclear explosion! Hundreds of thousands of tons of nuclear explosion energy are released in a straight line in an area with a diameter of no more than three meters!

In order to verify whether the [Starlight Skyfall] is really as powerful as the record, the base specially funded the Supreme Mage to complete an experiment and collect data, although the effect is slightly different from the record in the literature, but the power can be called amazing.

It can be said that if this magic can be used for the base, it will immediately rid the base of the embarrassment of being empty of countless weapons of mass destruction, but dealing with those enemies with strong individual strength will always be like a cannon hitting mosquitoes.

However, when the base asked the Star Tower to assist in the further development of the [Starlight Falls], the Supreme Mage refused.

It's not that he wants to cherish the broom, it's because the shortcomings of [Starlight Skyfall] are too obvious, and like most star magic, it is very impractical, and it is not an exaggeration to even call it garbage. The Supreme Mage really didn't want to use such a magic to go out and smash his sign, after all, he planned to continue to cooperate in the future.

First of all, [Starlight Waterfall] can only be released using the magic array, and its magic array is extremely huge, and the attack distance can't even leave the magic array a hundred meters away!

This alone almost cuts off the possibility of the practical application of [Starlight Skyfall], unless it is taken out to defend the Yin people or important places, the application range is too narrow.

Secondly, although the power of this magic has nothing to do with the level of the caster, only with the casting environment of the magic array, it ...... Its requirements for the casting environment are indeed a bit harsh for Star Mages.

You must be able to look directly at the starlight to cast spells, so you can only use them on clear nights, which is also the problem with most star magic.

The more similar the environment around the magic array is to the astral magic, the more powerful it is, which is completely impossible for an astral mage, how can the environment in the atmosphere suitable for survival be compared to the cosmic environment?

The substance that is at the heart of the magic circle should ideally be part of the astral body in order to facilitate resonance. Star mages use meteoric iron, which is close but changes its properties as it passes through the atmosphere, so it's not the best.

But soon, the base came up with a plan.

The shortcomings of [Starlight Skyfall] are indeed difficult to solve for Star Mage, but it is not a shortcoming for the base - if the magic array of [Starlight Skyfall] is set on a satellite in space, then everything will be fine!

You can't always look directly at the stars on the ground, but space can!

The environment on the ground can't approximate a star, but space can!

The Star Mages don't have a part of the astral body as the core of the magic circle, but the base has ore samples from the moon!

The magic circle is too big to move? It doesn't matter, satellites fly in the sky!

The pillar of light can only pass through the vicinity of the magic array? It doesn't matter, you can do a wide range of attacks by adjusting the angle.

When the base informed the Supreme Mage of this plan, the elderly Star Mage almost fainted with excitement!

Is there anything more exciting for a Star Mage than going out into space!? Originally, the Supreme Mage thought that he would not be able to see the true face of space and stars until he ascended to the Kingdom of God after death, but he didn't expect that the alchemy of these Chinese people would be so powerful!

Since then, the Supreme Mage has been the most active promoter of the project, even giving up his ongoing magical research and moving directly to Stormwind to train as an astronaut!

"Countdown to launch...... 10,9,8…… 3,2,1…… Launch! ”

The Supreme Mage's eyes were fixed on the display screen that occupied an entire wall in front of him, and he looked at the launch vehicle that was spitting flames from its tail and rising rapidly, and his whole heart was pinched, he had already reached the point that this super alchemy golem that could run into space could fail!

He prayed silently in his heart, the most devout of his life.

The Supreme Master didn't know how long he prayed, only that when "the satellite entered the predetermined orbit and the launch was successful!" He went limp as he spoke.

"Supreme Mage, you've been here for a long time, let's go and take a break, after the satellite completes the self-test, it's time to go to the second stage, you need to be in good shape!"

The Supreme Mage nodded, this time he readily accepted the advice, he was already a little tired after the tension, and he really needed to rest before he could proceed to the next stage.

The hardest part had been done, and he didn't want a problem with his part.
