As Leno and Professor Erica explained the situation on the magic ship, they retrieved a stack of magic documents encapsulated in a metal box from the filing cabinet.

This stack of magical documents is an investigation report of the same type of disaster 15 years ago, which records in detail the clues and intelligence obtained by the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department from various investigations and evidence collection before and after the disaster.

What made Li Nuo stunned was a moving picture on the investigation report and the corresponding text introduction.

In this moving image, the magic ship that was shipwrecked 15 years ago is shattered, and countless fragments of the ship are floating on the surface of the sea, mixed with a large number of corpse fragments whose origin can no longer be identified.

The Wizarding Law Enforcement Department has investigated and determined that the magic ship, which was wrecked 15 years ago, was shattered by a huge force. Most of its hull may have sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Possible... Sinking to the bottom of the sea...

Leno chewed on the word "maybe" over and over again in his mind.

The Wizarding Law Enforcement Department's wording is relatively rigorous, rarely using ambiguous words like "maybe" and "probably".

It is common sense that when a ship is crushed, sinking to the bottom of the sea is its only destination.

According to this logic, instead of using the word "maybe" in the investigation report, the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department should have removed the word "maybe" and directly stated that "most of the hull of the magic ship sank to the bottom of the sea".

Now, the word "probably" appears in the investigative report, indicating that the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department is not sure if the magic ship has sunk to the bottom of the sea.

So if the magic ship doesn't sink to the bottom of the sea, where can it go?

Li Nuo's eyes condensed slightly, and he suddenly realized that he had made a preconceived mistake.

Bringing the magic ship, a magical metal mineral, to the alien sky does not necessarily mean taking the "complete" magic ship with you.

Smash the magic ship, take its essence and remove its dross, and take away only the most critical parts, which can also plunder the magical metal minerals of the wizarding world.

The pros and cons of this are clear. The upside is that the transportation burden is lightened, and the downside is that a large number of magic ship fragments will be left behind, leaving obvious clues for investigators in the wizarding world.

Although the wizards of this world are called "native" by Deep Space United Mining, they are not fools.

Fifteen years have passed, and there will always be some clues that have been found by the Wizarding Law Enforcement Department.

Coupled with the cooperation of the Star Witch, maybe at this moment, the Wizard Law Enforcement Department has roughly figured out the ins and outs of the whole incident.

Thinking of this, Li Nuo had a feeling of being sudden.

He knew why the law enforcement wizards didn't kill Captain Berkeley as soon as they came up.

The law enforcers, led by Hotamus and the Pure Light Court, must want to understand the secret story behind the incident through Berkeley and dig out the general information of the mastermind behind it.

As long as the wizard law enforcement department on the ground cooperates with the star witches roaming the starry sky, the wizards of this world will definitely be able to stop the conspiracy of the deep space joint mining.

Li Nuo nodded slowly, recovering from a brief loss of consciousness.

It is not of much use to him to speculate on the actions of all parties, but only to get a rough idea of what is going to happen in the future.

The most important thing right now is to profit from this incident.

Li Nuo pulled up his personal panel and glanced at the inventory.

[Soul Strength] 4215 points

[Energy] 89122/54 points

In order for his "will" to be on par with his "spirit", he had to cultivate the "Sound of Silence" meditation method to level 40.

This requires the consumption of a large amount of soul strength, gross estimates, eight thousand to ten thousand points.

Counting the cost of incubating Nicole's soul, then Li Nuo's current soul strength gap has reached 12,000 points.

Synths have no soul strength.

If there was a battle next, it would be impossible for Li Nuo to absorb soul strength from the synth.

Comparatively speaking, it is better to destroy the integrated modules on the synthesizer in a targeted manner to obtain energy rewards.

If the armed starfleet does not appear and there is no battle ensuing, then deconstructing the module fragments should be a good option during the sample collection process.

Li Nuo grabbed a fragment of a crystal between his fingertips and put it in front of his eyes to observe it, while throwing out the deconstruction.

[System News:]

[You're about to use deconstruction on "Reactor Ring Hull Fragments.] 】

[You have completely deconstructed the "TAK-1 type reactor". Therefore, this deconstruction does not require energy value. 】

【You have obtained the following solution results:】

Name: Fragments of the annular shell of the reactor

【Type】Metal Creation Group, Cold Nuclear Fusion Technology Product

[Completeness] 3%

The item is extremely intact and has lost all functionality.

【Description】

Thermonuclear fusion needs to meet the reaction conditions of ultra-high temperature and ultra-high pressure.

Cold nuclear fusion has extremely low reaction conditions and can be carried out in an environment close to normal temperature and pressure.

Metal Creation Group's cold fusion technology relies on four key components.

The annular shell of the reactor is one of the four key components.

Its first function is to fix the superconducting coil.

Its second function is to act as a shell for the reaction chamber, protecting the environment required for cold nuclear fusion.

…

Li Nuo stuffed the crystal fragment into the sample pocket, leaned down, and used the tool in his hand to pull out another fragment embedded in the ground.

Another deconstruction technique was thrown, and Leno got something called "the wreckage of the reactor's magnetic confinement fusion device".

Constantly leaning over, detaining fragments, picking up samples, and throwing deconstruction, Leno got a lot of broken components related to the reactor.

Four key components of a cold fusion reactor, he found two of them.

Annular shell, magnetic confinement fusion device.

The toroidal housing is responsible for fixing the superconducting coil and protecting the reaction environment.

Magnetic confinement fusion devices provide the reaction environment required for cold nuclear fusion.

Its full appearance is a coil made of superconducting material.

The magnetic confinement fusion device for thermonuclear fusion will generate high temperatures after being energized, providing a high-temperature environment for thermonuclear fusion.

The magnetic confinement fusion device used in Metal Creation Group's cold nuclear fusion technology is very different. When this thing is energized, it can create a special magnetic field close to room temperature to guide the reaction of TAK-1 nuclear fusion fuel.

The superconducting coils that make up this device are the key to the realization of cold core fusion.

But unfortunately, the superconducting coil is gone.

The magnetic confinement fusion device that Li Nuo found was only distorted and deformed metal slag, and there was no trace of the superconducting coil.

This...

It's a bit embarrassing.

Li Nuo's brain was hot before, and he spent 500,000 energy points before and after to deconstruct the cold nuclear fusion reactor, just to dig out the mystery of cold nuclear fusion.

Now, he has found the answer, and it is in the material of the superconducting coil.

But panel information shows that superconducting materials are metal specialties discovered by metal creation groups on a planet. This material may not be available in the wizarding world.

If Li Nuo wants to realize the cold nuclear fusion technology of the Metal Creation Group in the wizarding world, he must first find a substitute for this superconducting material.

Where to find this...

Whining... Pity my 500,000 energy worth, a stud down, not even a hair. What is the use of knowing the core of Metal Creation Group's cold nuclear fusion technology... I couldn't make a single key component without the materials at hand...

Li Nuo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He controlled the expression on his face very well and did not show the disappointment in his heart.

But when I thought that 500,000 energy points could raise a lot of skills to level 100, the sense of loss of real money hit again.

Li Nuo can only enlighten himself.

Hiss.. Wait a minute

Li Nuo's body trembled slightly!

A whimsical idea blooms in his mind!

Judging from the results of the solution alone, he is actually not without gains.

At least he figured out the key knowledge points such as the principle of "nuclear fusion", the reaction conditions, and the operation principle of the annular reactor.

The "TAK-1 reactor" contains detailed information on the process, process and material requirements for making an annular cold nuclear fusion reactor.

If you don't have the superconducting materials needed for cold fusion, it's okay, it's the same if you make a thermonuclear fusion reactor instead.

Let's not talk about whether this kind of brain circuit similar to "I search for thought" will work, Li Nuo feels that it is necessary for him to give himself a whole "metal thinking" meditation method.

With this meditation method in hand, he was able to create the magic metal of his mind, and then groped for all the metal materials needed for the reactor.

In addition, due to the mismatch of materials, as well as the different production processes between the magic side and the scientific side, even if he does make a nuclear fusion reactor in the future, it is very likely to be a bloated and rough reactor, covering an area of more than 100 square meters.

In the world of technology, such reactors are very bulky, difficult to move, and even more difficult to carry.

But in the wizarding world, wouldn't it be nice to put it in a magic pocket?

If the reactor could coexist perfectly with the magic pocket, I wouldn't dare to think about it...

The other wizards reached into their magic pockets and pulled out their wands.

What you take out of your magic pocket is the electrical energy vent connected to the reactor, or you can simply take out the heat generated by the reactor and spray people...

Li Nuo imagined that picture for a moment, couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, and hurriedly calmed his mind.

Regardless of whether this can be achieved in the future, and whether there is no need to use the reactor to strengthen his strength, Li Nuo plans to get his hands on the "Metal Thinking" meditation method.

This meditation method is really convenient. With it, it is equivalent to an extra layer of protection, and it can also make a matching magic projectile wand, which is equivalent to an additional means of responding to the enemy.

The trouble is that the "Metal Mind" meditation is the signature meditation of the Hothamus Metal Branch.

If the Metal Branch found out that Li Nuo knew this meditation method, then even if ten Erika professors came to help him speak, Li Nuo would not be able to avoid interrogation.

It would be better for Li Nuo to find another metal-based meditation method. Preferably the kind of meditation that has been lost and forgotten by the world.

In this way, Leno can attribute the origin of the meditation method to accidental gains, and thus use it openly.

Where can you find such meditations?

Li Nuo picked up the sample, thought about it, and quickly completed the work at hand.

He and Bell began to collect samples from both sides of the hemispherical pit, eventually converging in the center of the bottom of the pit.

Bell took Li Nuo's sample pocket, looked inside, counted the number of samples in it, and glanced at the area that Li Nuo was responsible for.

"You've done a good job, Jarvis." Bell hung two sample pockets on his belt:

"Come with me, let's go and give the sample to my professor. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. My professor is Grand Arbitrator Paredes, the Wizard of the Ten Rings of Pure Light. When you see him in a moment, you don't have to be inhibited. He himself is very easy-going. After I introduce you to him, if he doesn't have any special instructions, you'll be free to move around the interrogation site. The only thing to be careful about is not to disturb the interrogation. ”

"Okay, Bell, please lead the way." Leno beckoned to Dinas and motioned for the other to follow him and Bell.

The trio used their flying skills and flew towards the hotel suite rented by Mefla.

It was also embarrassing to say, because of the suddenness of the incident and the urgency of the situation, the confrontation between the law enforcement wizard and Berkeley took place in the hotel suite where Maeve was staying.

Mayfla only had time to inform Filia and the other wizard students to leave, and she didn't have time to pack her bags.

Her clothes, cosmetics, daily necessities, and so on were all ruined in the confrontation between the two sides.

After Li Nuo flew to the scene, he recognized Mei Fule at first glance who was staring at the ruins of the hotel.

The rich witch was standing beside the rubble, covering her head with her right hand.

When Li Nuo greeted her, she muttered something like "All the magic workbooks made by the students have been burned, and I haven't had time to correct them."

Listening to what she meant, Filia and the others might have to rewrite the magic workbook...

Leno "mourned" for Filia and Betty for half a second, and landed in the open space next to the ruins.

A circular three-dimensional circle covering an area of 20 square meters appeared here. In the center of the circle was Captain Berkeley, hovering in the air.

The captain was injured in the violent resistance and is now in a coma.

However, this does not preclude the interrogation.

Unas Ring prides itself on being a civilized wizard nation. Rude and despicable practices such as reading memories, torturing souls, and erasing hearts will violate the laws of the Unas Ring.

Not even wizard enforcers can do that.

But, well, opportunistic, uh, no, wizards who know how to be flexible, will always find a way to circumvent the law.

The magic circle, called "Beautiful Dreams", has become a weapon for the Pure Light Court to interrogate wizard criminals.

Those who step into this magic circle will fall into a deep sleep and experience a beautiful dream that is extremely real.

Take Captain Berkeley, for example.

In reality, his cooperation with suspicious individuals was interrupted.

In a beautiful dream, his cooperation with suspicious persons will go on normally.

He will rely on his imagination and what he knows to complete the follow-up of his cooperation with suspicious people in his dreams.

Except for a few parts of the scenes that appear in the dream are set by the magic array arranger, all the other contents, such as scenes, characters, dialogues, and behaviors, are woven by Berkeley's subconscious using memories.

This kind of magic array involving dreams will reveal the beautiful things that a person wants to happen most in their hearts.

For a wizard criminal like Berkeley, the best thing he wants to happen in his heart must be that his cooperation with suspicious people can go on as usual.

And everything he saw and heard in his dreams would be presented on a floor-to-ceiling glass mirror as a magical picture from the main perspective.

At the moment when Li Nuo arrived at the scene, the law enforcement wizards, including Grand Arbitrator Paredes, were standing in a row around the floor-to-ceiling glass mirror, looking intently at the dream picture on the mirror.

After a brief greeting to Paredes, Leno took Dinas and stood aside honestly, observing the contents of the dream.

In the dream screen, Berkeley is cooperating with suspicious people to slaughter the passengers of the magic ship.

They divided the passengers into two parts.

Some were slaughtered on the spot and exterminated on the spot. This part of the population is mainly lowly powerful wizards and ordinary people.

The other part is covered with multiple "confinement collars", one on the neck, one on each wrist, and one on each ankle.

Under such heavy constraints, the instructors of the institution, including "Maevele", were all sealed in their ability to cast spells. Suspicious individuals injected them with a lethargic drug and kept them in separate cabins.

At this point in the dream, the law enforcement wizards who watched the dream scene showed no mercy for Berkeley.

The other party broke his promise to protect the crew, reneged on his oath as a member of Hothams, and desecrated his sacred duty as captain.

With what he did in "Beautiful Dreams", it was no problem to give him the name of a butcher.

Of course, what happens in the dream cannot be the basis for refereeing Berkeley in reality, it only affects the referee's perception of him.

But why would Berkeley give up his identity and position and cooperate with suspicious people?

What kind of reward did the other party promise to make him willingly raise the butcher knife to the passengers?

The answer may be revealed in a dream.

Just after the passenger in the dream is either killed or imprisoned, Berkeley cooperates with the suspicious person in a strange operation.

In the dream scene, 17 suspicious people, that is, the 17 synths killed by Li Nuo, stand in the middle of the open-air square of the magic ship, holding hands and forming a circle.

Their bodies open in half, turning into scarlet humanoid petals, revealing the artificial flesh and integrated modules within them.

The reactor on their chests went into overload, erupting with a high-pitched, piercing roar.

Umbrella-shaped metal antennas protrude from the mouths of these synths and point towards the center of the magic ship's dome, aiming at the starry sky directly above.

Berkeley cooperated with these people's work. He opened the magic dome of the magic ship and summoned a huge umbrella-like antenna that floated vertically upwards in the air.

Under the operation, there was a muffled buzz, and the invisible interstellar communication was officially opened.

After about three minutes of this view, the star filter directly above the magic ship was sliced open by a bright and dazzling pillar of light, revealing a gap in the alien sky with an incomparably smooth cutting surface.

Beyond the gap in the alien sky, a disc-shaped metal object that obscures the sky and the sun is slowly heading towards the gap, trying to enter the wizards' world.

As the disc approached, the huge pattern of "claws pinching the planet" gradually became clear on the outer armor plate of the disc.

Berkeley, in the magic array, suddenly twitched violently, blood spurted wildly from his mouth, and his head exploded with a thud.

This is the end of the dream.

The magical vision on the floor-to-ceiling mirror was empty, and the spotless mirror reflected the solemn expressions of the onlookers.
