Volume 1 Chapter 18 The Star Emperor's Civil Teleportation Array
After leaving the restaurant, Ren Tianxiang walked south along the avenue in front of the restaurant.
His next target is the teleportation center in Hongyi City, where he can ride the Star Emperor's civilian teleportation array. With this thing, he would travel to Star City much faster.
In simple terms, the teleportation array is actually a kind of magic circle, which simulates a monk with a spatial element to split a spatial crack by attracting the spatial elements in the space, and then pushes the people in the teleportation array into the spatial crack, so as to achieve the effect of teleporting people to a distant place.
Unlike the monks who possessed spatial elements, the Star Emperor's teleportation array was established by relying on the Star Emperor's Great Protector Array, the Sky Shifting Star Array, which was able to continuously absorb the aura of heaven and earth and provide nearly inexhaustible energy for the teleportation array, which enabled the Star Emperor to establish a complex teleportation array system in the major provinces of the country.
Until now, under the premise of military defense, the Star Empire has established teleportation arrays near the capital of each province, and these teleportation arrays can transmit to the surrounding provinces of the province, and can also receive people or things teleported from the surrounding provinces.
It is worth mentioning that compared to the civilian teleportation array with heavy transportation, the Star Emperor has also created an efficient and fast military teleportation array.
Such a large teleportation array could teleport up to 30,000 people across provinces, so that the southernmost army of the Star Empire could cross the distance of nearly 13,000 kilometers from north to south of the Southern Continent to the Henglu Mountain Range on the northern border within half a month.
Such a terrifying teleportation ability gave the Star Empire's army an efficient mobilization, and whenever the Dragon King Empire attacked the Star Empire's border, the fastest support could arrive within a day.
In fact, the Star Empire's teleportation array system was originally used for the military, and after the current large-scale military teleportation array appeared, the original inefficient military teleportation array was eliminated, the level was reduced, and it became the current civilian teleportation array.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Ren Tianxiang had ridden the teleportation array of the Star Emperor Kingdom. Before, because he didn't have an identity certificate, he came into the Star Emperor Kingdom by mixing in, and facilities like the teleportation array that had to strictly check the identity certificate, Ren Tianxiang didn't dare to approach it even if he was close.
Walking to the gate of the waiting area of the teleportation station and waiting in line to pay the fee and check the identification, Ren Tianxiang also began to take a good look at the facility.
There is not much to say about the exterior style of the teleporter, which is similar to the overall style of Hongyi City, where the main structure is built with bricks and wood, then decorated with wooden materials, and finally the roof is decorated with stone materials that resemble glazed tiles.
However, unlike the buildings in the city, the teleportation station is too large. Ren Tianxiang didn't go around the perimeter of the teleportation station, but just looking at it from one side, he could estimate that the teleportation station was the size of two football fields.
Of course, the entire building is not all within the scope of the teleportation array, which also includes the area of the waiting area. The waiting area is about two-thirds of the building's footprint, and only this large area can accommodate people waiting.
It is important to know that civilian teleportation arrays are often the best choice for some merchants, who send horse-drawn carts full of goods into the teleportation array, where they are received by the subordinates of the next teleportation station, and then continue to their destination.
Because the current civilian teleportation arrays are all transformed from the original military teleportation arrays, the space for teleportation is also sufficient, which can save a lot of time for these merchants.
After waiting for about half an hour, Ren Tianxiang finally walked to the door of the teleportation station.
After obediently handing over two silver coins and his Xuanyuan Hall disciple token, the inspector at the teleportation station glanced at the silver coins and Xuanyuan Hall disciple tokens casually and asked, "What are the people of Xuanyuan Hall doing in Mowan Province?"
"My destination is Star City, which is to enroll in the Star Emperor Royal Academy. ”
The inspector nodded, handed the token back to Ren Tianxiang, waved his hand and said, "Go over." ”
"Thank you. ”
Ren Tianxiang put away the token and walked into the teleportation station.
Afternoon was the peak of teleportation, and the teleportation station was already overcrowded at this time, so Ren Tianxiang finally found a relatively easy gap.
Dozens of freight wagons were parked in the teleportation station, and the large ten-meter-long carriages occupied the vast majority of the waiting area, leaving the rest of the passengers to find their own gaps between them.
Standing in the noisy teleportation station, he could still hear the huge "tom" sound from the teleportation array, and with the activation sound of these magic arrays that were not of high frequency, Ren Tianxiang's position was also constantly approaching the teleportation area.
While waiting
After waiting for an hour, Ren Tianxiang finally entered the teleportation array.
As mentioned earlier, the teleportation area is actually not very large, only one-third of the entire teleportation station, and such an area can only accommodate ten carriages and a few hundred passengers, and the carriages must be close together so that there is a place for passengers to stand.
The inscriptions of the magic circle are engraved on the ground in the teleportation area, and these characters are all unique to the Star Clan of the Star Emperor Kingdom, which is very different from the common script of the Wind and Snow Empire on the mainland. Of course, the use of the Starclan script on the magic circle is also to prevent the magic circle from being penetrated by the spies of the Dragon King Empire, so that such a terrifying teleportation array system can also be built in the territory of the Dragon King Empire.
The inscription on the ground glowed slightly, and this light continued to grow stronger as time passed. Ren Tianxiang speculated that the intensity of the light might represent the energy stored in the circle. Because he had seen the light of these inscriptions quickly dim after the last teleportation had ended, he guessed that it might have been depleted of energy.
There is no doubt that the energy required for such a large magic array as the teleportation array is very huge, and the Star Emperor Kingdom was able to maintain the entire teleportation array system because of the foresight of the Founding Emperor who established the Sky Shifting Star Array covering the entire empire.
When the carriage was in place, the passengers had almost come in, and the staff standing around the teleportation array began to act.
"The circle energy is recharged!"
"Gate closed!"
"After receiving the report from the teleportation station of Mowan Province, you can open the teleportation array. ”
With a few reports from the staff, the sound of "tom tom" sounded above everyone's heads.
Ren Tianxiang looked up and saw that the roof of the teleportation area had opened to both sides through some mechanical structure, and circles of overlapping silver halos rose from the ground and slowly rose into the sky—those "tom" sounds were emitted by these silver halos.
At the same time, a layer of light gradually rose around them, and this light film just surrounded the entire teleportation circle, and there were countless floating Star characters on the light film.
Although I had seen such a scene in the waiting area just now, when I stood in this teleportation circle in person, I had a different feeling.
Because he possessed spatial elements, Ren Tianxiang could feel that the spatial elements in the teleportation array had begun to become active, as if someone was controlling the surrounding spatial elements to gather all the people or carriages in the teleportation array.
As the light of the inscription under his feet became brighter and brighter, Ren Tianxiang felt that his body seemed to be becoming lighter and lighter, as if something was really supporting his body.
At this moment, the voice of the staff on the side came into Ren Tianxiang's ears.
"Teleport!"
As soon as the live sound fell, Ren Tianxiang's feeling of being supported became even stronger. If you have to compare, then someone used to hold himself up, but his body became lighter, but now he is held up, as if he is flying in the air.
As the light of the circle passed in an instant, so did the surrounding scene.
Everything around them distorted and lost color, and after a few minutes, their surroundings were pitch black.
The light film surrounding them was also constantly fluctuating, and the words on it were still flickering with the light film's fluctuations.
They are now in the process of space shuttle, and this Ren Tianxiang can be very sure. Watching the scene around him distort and become pitch black, he immediately thought of what he had seen and heard when he was taken by his uncle to travel through space.
However, with Ren Tianxiang's current vision, he really can't see what the principle of this space shuttle is. Whether it is his uncle's space shuttle or the teleportation of this magic circle, both of them need to spend a lot of time in such a dark space. And there is also an inexplicable feeling of being pushed back when riding the teleportation array, which is something that he didn't feel when he followed his uncle.
I don't know how long it took, but a glimmer of light finally appeared in the darkness around me. Ren Tianxiang only felt as if he had bumped into something soft in front of him, and the feeling of pushing his back disappeared suddenly.
And at the moment when the feeling of hitting something disappeared, the surroundings immediately shone brightly, and Ren Tianxiang looked at it and found that they had re-established themselves on a magic circle.
The magic circle on the ground has changed, the appearance of the surrounding staff has also changed, and even the architectural style of the entire teleportation station has been very different from Hongyi City, Ren Tianxiang estimated that he had teleported to the teleportation station near Fengcheng, the capital of Mowan Province in the south of Hongyi City.
Silently raised his left hand and looked at the time displayed on the communication bracelet, Ren Tianxiang found that the process of teleportation lasted for four or five hours—obviously he didn't feel this way at all during the teleportation process.
Seeing that the staff had begun to evacuate the teleportation area, Ren Tianxiang immediately followed the crowd and walked out.
He now had to leave the teleportation station immediately and rush to the teleportation station south of Fengcheng so that he could reach the next province.
Originally, he thought that if he took the teleportation station, the time would be much faster, even if there were still three or four days before the start of the Star Emperor Royal Academy, he could take the teleportation array by himself. But now it seems that this teleportation will take nearly seven hours to reach the Star City in time, and whether he can reach Star City in time has become a problem.
