Chapter 348: Giant Wonder
About half a year ago, Shati's team leader had told her that the Republic was determined to establish a second magic moon at the four-orbited star to serve as a transit station and logistics base for the development and exploration of the outer solar system;
Today, this project has indeed entered the construction period after careful planning and strict site selection, but its core purpose and construction scale and many other aspects have a great deviation from what the master said before;
For example, it will indeed take on the task of being a 'general base for peripheral development', but that is not all its original purpose.......
Although the magic moon in the orbit of the parent star can add an additional displacement function, it is also practically impossible to move easily due to its tasks such as energy base stations and elf breeding centers;
Therefore, a 'free base' that can travel freely to and from all parts of the solar system, and can not only take on the core task of energy, but also become an interstellar fortress, and at the same time has super aggression, and can become a field coverage projection source, has become a new demand at this time, so there is the construction plan of this No. 2 magic moon.
At the beginning, the high-level casters, together with the Brain and the warrior team on the perimeter exploration mission, selected the highly metallic 'Four Guards and Eight' near the four-orbited star as the final carrier of the plan.
Yes, the Republic would not have mustered massive resources to create a metal moon out of thin air, because the idea of applying it to the first moon turned out to be a bit too clumsy;
So this time, they plan to directly use the existing stars as the basis and transform them into the carrier of the moon by adding and subtracting, although this process still needs to be supplemented by external resources, but the pressure on transportation and other aspects will be much easier than the first one;
In addition, a construction method that was already there, but could not be imagined last time, and could not be realized for some reason, will also be used in the transformation process of the carrier this time, and it is expected that it will also save a lot of energy and consumption.
In this way, after the planning and preparation are completed, the preliminary construction plan is initiated.....
In the early stage, several spaceships, carrying nearly 100 builders and a large number of supplies, landed on the surface of Siwei and Ba, which is about 1,200 kilometers in diameter, where they quickly built a forward base and set up a basic Void Transcendence Corridor;
Subsequently, thousands of doppelganger projections of high-level spellcasters arrived at the new base, and leveraged the Void Realm spell casting resources to launch a larger-scale construction operation, and in only a short period of time, the carrying capacity of the base's physical elves was successfully expanded, and finally reached the scope of a large base.
As a result, more Entity Elves are thrown in, and more 'wide' Chrono Corridors are propped up, which in turn allows more casters to project here;
In this cycle, the entire project also advanced as if the accelerator button had been pressed, and it took almost only about fifty home star days for the Republic to build more than a thousand new bases on all sides of the four guards and eight surfaces, and the coverage of the field spread all over its surface and continued to extend underground.
At the same time, power farms have sprung up far beyond the scale required for the site's energy consumption, and they are being built to produce electricity in a steady stream of local conditions, but the vast majority of them are sent into the storage inscription ball, as if waiting for the day when they will be needed.

Home Planet: Spell Moon
After more than 100 years of accumulation, the Republic has 437 fifth-order spellcasters, and at this moment, they are basically all concentrated in a certain chamber in the Spell Moon.
At this time, Nesta, who had the most experience and the oldest qualifications in the fifth order, was sitting in the very center to absorb the electrical energy transmitted into the body in the inscription below;
Half an hour later, Nesta, who was surrounded by more than 400 spellcasters inside and out, gradually opened his purple eyes and said slowly,
"Energy reserves are done, right? If that's all right, you can get started now. ”
And around him, those familiar or unfamiliar spellcasters were also sitting on the same energy nodes at this time, and after hearing this, they all nodded yes and started the next action....
As a result, all the bodies, including Nesta, dissolved and disintegrated, and in a matter of moments, they merged into a purple torrent and swirled like a whirlpool into the center where Nanesta had been sitting.
At the same time, the thoughts in the meditation space are connected and reconstructed like the sands of the Ganges, while the torrent of reality converges and merges in the center, and flows like flowing water, and then rushes along the demarcated passage towards the outside of the cabin and even outside the moon.
The target of the torrent is a slightly incongruous area on the side of the moon, where there is apparently no raised Beastmaster cage structure, but a metal tunnel with a metal ball about 3 kilometers in diameter directly connected to the end of the tunnel.....
The ball seemed inconspicuous compared to the 30-kilometer-diameter Magic Moon, but when the flow of cells rushed down the tunnel and dissolved into it, the obvious changes occurred.
It began to deform synchronously inside and out, with a large number of inscriptions being generated in every corner of it, various chamber structures being generated throughout the interior, and a steady stream of energy being generated from the magic moon and being fed into it along the still connected passages, becoming the source of energy for the '437-in-1 Fusion'.
At this moment, the inner heavy elemental cores that had been processed and stored in slow decay were quickly transformed into more than a dozen inscription fission piles under the operation of the Nesta consciousness of the main control body, along with the rest of the metals on the periphery, and distributed in a dense and orderly manner throughout the gradually deformed sphere.
After about 20 lamps had passed, the change of the sphere finally came to an end, and because it was no longer 'solid', it had more than tripled in size, and had become a smooth drop-like structure with a thick front and a thin back;
Then, it severed its connection to the Magic Moon, reoriented itself with a gravitational field technique, and spewed a dark blue plume of light from its narrow tail, driving it away from the Sun.
When a voyage cycle passed, the giant mimic water drop spacecraft finally descended to the Siwei 8 orbit, and nearly 10,000 spacecraft of various purposes, large and small, set sail from many space stations in the four orbits to the nearby orbits, and distributed around the stars in an encircled manner.
In a few moments, all the Entity Elf engineering teams on the ground were evacuated, and in the end, only tens of thousands of caster projections remained, and they were still operating in the bases of all parties on the surface.
~~~~~~~~~
In deep space, after the mimic spacecraft stopped in a predetermined orbit, Nesta immediately began to remotely link with the home star domain;
After all, he controlled the body of more than 400 high-level spellcasters, so after using the mimic body as the carrier medium, he successfully involved a larger-scale super-space-time corridor than the surface of the earth, and used the spaceship itself as a medium to project it into a wider space.
Subsequently, the rest of the surrounding special 'command ships' that also had the ability to tow the Void Realm also spread out a small domain circle centered on each other, and merged with the original field towed by Nesta and the original field on the surface, thus basically encompassing the entire four guards and eight into it;
At this moment, these forces from the three sides have jointly constructed a super-large-scale Void Realm, and through this, they have connected the huge faith resources stored in the realm of the home planet, so that the endless prayers of the believers who have multiplied to more than 10 billion are continuously projected to the four miles away.
As a result, the elven spellcasters of all levels, who were far away in the home planet, numbered more than 100 million, were projected here like a swarm of bees along the corridor;
From the orbital airspace in the vacuum, to the bases on the surface, to the mantle deep at the bottom, to the completely condensed metal core, their phantoms can be said to cover all the regions of the four guards.....
Then, a comprehensive process of spell casting began in every corner, and countless fantasy powers blessed by faith and carrying the power of the gods were projected from all sides, forming the separation and fusion of light and electricity, heat and flame, and the elements.
The change first occurs at the core of the condensed star, which is gradually heated from the very center and gradually spreads outward to a molten state.
In the meantime, the metallic elements, as well as some of the non-metallic elements that are needed, are retained, and the remaining large amount of non-metallic elements are turned into magma and rush upwards, so that the heat is carried to the outer layer and into the area that is also slowly melting.
Later, the same thing happened again in the outer layer, with the compound decomposing, the metal and a small amount of the non-metal going downward, and the rest of the elements continuing to diffuse in the outer direction.
In this inside-to-outside reciprocating cycle, supply ships are busy traveling between the space station and the spellcasting terminal spacecraft in deep space, constantly replenishing them with the necessary fuel rods to serve as a source of energy for their pry field and activation of hull inscriptions;
This was also happening inside the mimic body controlled by Nesta, and he could clearly feel the worm-like vibrations caused by the small supply ship shuttling back and forth between the 'blood vessels'.
At the same time, the changes in the stars below have gradually reached a critical point......
More than a dozen parent stars passed away in a flash, and at this moment, except for the area about a kilometer thick on the surface, the entire star turned into a complete molten state and began to swell in layers;
Moreover, under the control of the realm and the casters, its interior has been transformed into a vast Void Realm Divine Crucible, in which countless materials are disassembled, refined, and smelted into various alloy slurries.
Later, pools of lava were formed around the bases on the surface that went straight to the ground, and a large number of pre-stockpiled metal elemental fruits were thrown into them to participate in the smelting process of the stars, and more transport ships approached orbit and dumped huge amounts of the same type of 'fruits' downward;
This process continued for more than a month, during which various types of products from Purgatory, the Death Star, and the asteroid belt were thrown into the boiling and tumbling pool of magma, which never erupted.
Time passed, and as the material content and the smelting process approached the end, a circular hole with a diameter of 7 kilometers slowly opened in a certain area of the earth's surface, revealing the deep flow of high-temperature molten magma beneath it;
Then, Nesta's giant mimic body slowly descended from orbit, gradually turning into a regular sphere with a diameter of about 4,500 meters, burrowing into the newly appearing hole, and going straight down from the magma-filled tunnel;
Ten km .... Fifty km ...... 100 km ..... 300 km ..... After descending nearly 600 kilometers, it finally reached the core of the star.
As a result, the rest of the structure of the mimic body except for the energy region began to decompose and gradually merge into the molten core.
And the powerful cell population of the fifth-order spellcasters also merged into the star core at this moment, and resisted the superalloy magma that reached nearly 10,000 absolute degrees, and with the help of the projections of tens of millions of spellcasters, they began to shape and engrave the core structure of the 'moon'.
In the meantime, wires engraved with heat-resistant inscriptions extend from the surface, connecting the energy that had been stored up earlier, and the energy conversion core that the mimic has been retained below, thus providing an additional layer of driving support for Nesta's actions at this time.
The clock is still ticking.....
At the core of the star, some of the alloys began to slowly condense, and gradually formed hundreds of layers of complex structures overlapping each other;
Subsequently, even if most of the microscopic techniques were used for observation, the inscriptions in the invisible state were attached to them one by one, and they began to be functionally shaped at a more core level.
When there is one lamp, when there are two lights..... One home star day, two home star days......
In the course of time, more than a dozen days of the parent star had passed, and a moon with a purple-gold glow had formed at a slightly declinted position in the center of the star, but because it did not have as many additional structures as the first moon, the overall diameter was only about 10 kilometers.
Later, under the combined action of gravitational field, magnetic field, laser beam, etc., the fusion source injected into it began its own very stable operation with a burst of humming during Niesta's full observation and debugging.
And feeling the energy that came from within, even if it didn't condense a physical body at this time, Nesta also felt a sense of relief in his heart, and those peripheral caster projections, the controllers in the ship's cabin, and the many participants around the home planet should feel the same way at the moment.
However, this project is not really over at this point, and the successful operation of this magic moon is only a partial replenishment of the huge amount of energy required after the initial solution, and the whole project can even be said to have just begun......
