Chapter Twenty-Six: Behind the Canopy

The communication hung up, there was silence, Mu Xing lowered his head, and just hugged Lu Yuan's waist tightly.

"How?" Lu Yuan was the first to break the silence.

Mu Xing raised her head, and at some point, her face was already covered with crystal tears. She bit her lip and wiped her tears as she said to Ms. Liming and Lu Yuan, "The other party has been trying to track us, and the other party's remote communication technology doesn't seem to be much higher than ours!" And I also found his place...... He's on Earth! ”

Mu Xing swiped the multi-purpose tool in her hand towards the zenith, and the starry sky pattern displayed above her head on the 33rd floor was replaced with a dozen charts, and then she passed the remaining number jù directly to Ms. Liming. With her powerful computing power, Ms. Liming understood a qiē almost instantly.

Mu Xing hugged Lu Yuan's waist again and hid his head in his arms - that person is on Earth, which means a lot of things - sometimes, knowing the truth does not mean that he can bear the truth.

"According to linguistic analysis, social development analysis, logic...... At this time, Ms. Liming, who had been cooperating with Mu Xing, explained, "A total of 173 errors were found, 77 were suspicious, and the conclusion was that all of them were fake. His description of the Earth is a forgery, and he is not an Earthling. According to his statement, it is likely that the Earth has fallen......" Lady Dawn called up the sonic image, then blocked some frequencies and replayed it again.

The man's voice had now changed to a strange monosyllabic language, and it sounded like two people. "Removing the synthesized frequencies of sounds, this should be the language they really use."

"Analyze their language rules. Find out what they said...... I think we're close to catching the tail of the man behind it! Lu Yuan patted Mu Xing's head. Said to Ms. Liming, "Go and inform the main god Xing Yan, the dragon god, and everyone." I may need help. ”

"Need help? You promised it would be fine! "Lady Dawn finally frowned and glared at Lu Yuan with the most stern attitude!" If it weren't for the captain's assurances, I would definitely not have agreed to communicate! Although she was seeking verification here, she had already followed Lu Yuan's instructions and sent out invitations to everyone through the virtual image.

"Take it easy, take it easy...... Let's start with that, since the alien said a lot, there should be no problem with language analysis, right? A chair grew out of the ground, and Lu Yuan sat down with Mu Xing in his arms.

One word. It's made up of a lot of factors – tone, phrasing, rules of language, vocalization, the coordination of the larynx and tongue, even the respiratory rate – which is why a foreigner who speaks Chinese very well can still be recognized by locals as a foreigner. Because he didn't take it lightly from the beginning, Mu Xing already knew the result from the third short sentence...... She has been pretending to be normal and persisting, but she is following Lu Yuan's previous plan, tracking backwards, and accumulating materials for language analysis.

Never done anything like this. Mu Xing, who was extremely disappointed in his heart, had exhausted all his strength at this time.

"It's 95% complete, absolutely no problem!" Lady Dawn replied sternly, but she looked angry! It's good at this time. Xing Yan and the dragon god had already appeared at the end of the corridor.

Almost at the same moment, a new anomaly was discovered, and Lu Yuan stood up from his chair, and Lady Dawn also said in a sharp voice. "Spatial disturbance detected! Whatever you're going to do...... Hurry up, please! In the end, her eyes looked at Lu Yuan. There is already a taste of pleading.

Mu Xing also nervously grabbed Lu Yuan's sleeve and shook it. Communication--despite being put on such and such a plan by Lu Yuan. used to find out who was behind the scenes - but the origin of the matter was always due to her willfulness.

"Don't worry, you're too busy to see people every day, you won't think I'm doing nothing, right?" Lu Yuan said softly. His hole cards are not easy to prepare and last a limited amount of time, so he must find the right time to make the most of them.

Lu Yuan is a person with a great sense of crisis, and after he came from the Yitian World, he successfully subverted a country and made him more and more scheming. How could a guy like him, who had to be well prepared to enter every world, have nothing to do on the Dawn?

Even if he doesn't defend against external enemies, he has to defend against ...... Lady Dawn! Without hole cards, how could he believe that Ms. Dawn would come according to the principles? Ms. Dawn is an artificial intelligence, not a program. Who said she had to follow any rules? On this ship, the awakened Dawn Lady is stronger than a god, and Lu Yuan doesn't want to let himself be killed by his life......

So today, he stood in the middle of the patio on the 33rd floor, facing the sky, and shouted very mid-two, "Show up!" My Magic Tower! ”

It seemed that he had heard something incredible, and whether it was Mu Xing or Lady Dawn, whether it was Alona or Kexue, they all looked at him with a look of a nervous disorder...... Haven't you woken up yet, boy?

"This ...... This...... This...... That's your way?!!! "Ms. Dawn, as a host AI, was almost so angry that her logic was confused!

"I ...... I got it! I can hide the Dawn in the semi-material world for the time being! Nana hurriedly rolled up her sleeves and prepared to make amends. Nana was awakened on the Dawn, and she actually had more sense of responsibility for the Dawn than Lu Yuan.

At this moment, a cloud of orange smoke, like a flame, rose from the transparent floor of the 33rd floor, and circled along the position of the Dawn's patio, enveloping several people present...... Illusory smoke that makes up the walls of illusion! Then, in the center of the "room", a pillar of light appeared through the ceiling and the floor! The surface of this pillar of light rippled with water, as if it was made of liquid.

Lu Yuan stepped forward alone and pressed his hand on the pillar of light, and the surface of the pillar of light rippled layer by layer around the palm......

Immediately, the magic extended up and down layer by layer, and each layer of the Dawn, down to the huge plasma engine, up to the transparent dome of the sky, was rising like a flaming smoke, and then connected layer by layer...... In the blink of an eye, inside the courtyard of the Dawn, a semi-illusory hexagonal columnar building was formed! The building is seven kilometers long! Filled the entire patio area of the Dawn. Straight through the entire axis of the Dawn!

"You...... When was it made!? How was it made!? What do you make it from!? "Ms. Dawn felt incredible, but at the same time, she felt fear from the bottom of her heart! -- Subconsciously. She guessed that the magic tower seemed to have been built to deal with her...... Know that every centimeter of the Dawn is under her watch! Without her permission, Lu Yuan couldn't even remove a piece of the table! But Lu Yuan was actually under her eyes. Such a magnificent project has been built! And then...... None of them found out!

"And, legal blindness!" Lu Yuan raised his head "proudly"! complained back about these people who despised him, and suddenly felt angry! It was not in vain that he burrowed into subspace and worked for countless years. As a true and only master of magic, it was so easy for him to hide from these people!

In fact, the materials used to build the magic tower are very simple, and they have always been stored around these people - the light that pours down from the zenith every day! Lu Yuan discovered by chance, because this world is the world of high-tech demons...... When the radiant energy in the sunlight is extracted by the solar panels, the rest ...... It's almost pure heaven and earth power—so. It's really convenient to use!

As an archmage who has mastered the spell of the Seven Rings, it is actually a very strange thing not to build his own magic tower. Only on the Dawn, this group of guys who are accustomed to engaging in scientific research can not see the strangeness in this, so that Lu Yuan quietly completed this feat!

The Magic Tower is the most important tool for the magician, it can store mana and spells in advance, and then amplify the power of the magician's spells tenfold and hundredfold! Lu Yuan's magic tower refers to the principle of the "Book of Sea Monsters". Simple to build, powerful to function! Because it has been absorbing the power of heaven and earth shining in from the dome, the stored magic power is extremely strong - the pillar of light that runs through the entire Dawn is the magic pool of the magic tower! -- It's almost full.

"The disturbance of the space is becoming more and more intense. The other party seems to have the power to jump into space. It seems that he does not intend to let the Dawn go...... Ladies and gentlemen, all the time. Human beings are like the ant farm he raises, they are like // pets // things are like zài! I don't know how many years he's been secretly observing humans. But now, it's time for us to see what he looks like! Lu Yuan pressed his hand on the surface of the pillar of light. Sink inside the column. The huge magic tower began to emit a "buzzing" sound, and with Lu Yuan's will, the pillars of light on each floor were vibrating!

Then, in Ms. Dawn's completely bewildered vision, the entire seven-kilometer-thick basin-structure hull gradually disappeared, starting from the 151.75-kilometer-long solar panel rotors that stretched out, layer after layer, as if swallowed by an invisible monster......

*****

A few minutes later, a small black hole opened around the wandering star that Dawn had been orbiting.

This black hole is not an astronomical object that swallows a qiē ray of light.

It's like a "black hole" that cuts a hole in the dim background of the universe. Now this "black hole" that suddenly appeared began to contract and expand regularly like a heart...... A beam of light then emerges from the black hole. The light was like a paintbrush, its roots connected to the black hole, dancing at a speed that even the fastest lens could not discern, gradually outlining a pattern in the void of the universe.

The pattern became more and more complete, and after about thirty seconds, a hideous-looking, nearly 10-kilometer-long translucent battleship was "drawn" in front of the black hole!

It's not like the Dawn, which is made up of elegant, smooth arcs that don't see anything reminiscent of a weapon, and the color scheme is just as pleasing to the eye - almost at first glance it's a civilian-grade ship.

This vulture-like warship, which looks like a vulture with outstretched wings, is full of hard edges and lines, painted in an undisguised metallic color, and covered with large and heavy armor plates, plus more than a dozen main and auxiliary gun ports of all sizes sticking out of the armor, all show the essence of this war monster!

The length of 10,000 meters far exceeds the scale of the Mass Effect World and the Reaper Dreadnought of 2,000 meters. Don't look at its size as smaller than the Dawn - no matter how big a cruise ship is, it can't beat a battleship. What's more, from its magical teleportation method, it can be seen that it is probably far ahead of Dawn in terms of technology......

The two largest cannon ports in front of it were pointing straight to where the Dawn was! Obviously, the commander of the battleship was incomparably sure of the location of the Dawn!

"Why wasn't she there!? How could she not be there! A voice, roaring inside the bridge of the battleship. After a slight pause, the voice suddenly became low and fierce.

"Hehe~ Where do you think you can hide? …… Shoot at that position! ”

Five minutes later, when the pattern of the battleship was completely condensed into a real battleship, its two main guns, which ran through the axis of the battleship, began to condense the azure brilliance......

PS: There is one more chapter today, asking for votes.

PS2: Don't speculate on the plot arbitrarily, it's now also part of Mass Effect. (To be continued......)
