Chapter 80: Electronic Channels

When I choose the eternal truth, I take possession of it, and transform me as a subject according to it, and make it the absolute standard of all my actions.

Terra Calendar 1590.12.7.

The new Lisbon Island Hub, the Eye of the Silver Hand Royal Family.

Standing at the edge of the sea, the massive structure known as the Eye of the Silver Hand is not only the guardian of the sea, but also a beacon to the hearts of voyagers. The structure is shaped like a giant eye, looking down on the ocean, and its presence has become a symbol of the sea, and it is the only core area that has not been ravaged by monsters.

The design of the megastructure is full of steampunk elements, and the combination of steel and steam machinery makes it look mysterious and high-tech. The façade of the building is plated with silver metal, which reflects a dazzling glow when the sun hits it, with huge clock mechanisms and rotating gears.

Towering into the sky, the central lighthouse tower is topped with a huge spotlight that glows brightly at night to guide ships on the sea.

The interior of this lighthouse is a huge mechanical room, full of various steam machinery and complex control systems. The operation of the lighthouse is completely dependent on these precision machinery, and every rotation of gears and every injection of steam represents the beating heart of the lighthouse.

Around the lighthouse is a large steel castle, whose walls are adorned with royal coats of arms, showing its noble status.

The soldiers of the castle, dressed in steam-powered armor, were watching the two angels who had come here to "investigate" with wary eyes.

"Two, this is the [Mouth of the Lighthouse] that can replace [Plutonium-186], and it is through it that we can obtain almost infinite energy, and it is precisely by relying on the lighthouses that Iberia can construct a brilliant marine project on the coastline of the Chaos Sea. Tens of thousands of ships sailed to and from the ports of the artificial islands of Iberia, and the feared Chaos Sea was dominated by Iberia's vast fleet, which was now one of the top four in the Terra kingdoms. ”

Tyre Nanan Ogg, the prince of the Silverhand royal family, was talking to the two angels of heaven about the miracle in front of him, and as he spoke, his eyes flashed with an imperceptible sense of pride.

[New Lisbon Island Hub] is independent of Iberia, but they still wear a crotch with Iberia.

If it weren't for the outbreak of the Iberian Civil War, the reformers and the conservatives were at loggerheads, and Terra was in the midst of a great change unseen in a millennium, with all forces and demons alive.

Coupled with the natural and man-made disasters in the hub, they feel that they can't stand it anymore, so they will think of finding Heaven to be the "pick-up man", accept the supervision of the Heavenly Kingdom, and enjoy the protection of the Heavenly Kingdom.

However, the people in the hub are generally resistant to the matter of finding Heaven as a "pick-up man", and even the Silver Hand Royal Family has many people who are dissatisfied, such as Prince Tyle, who is now in charge of being a tour guide, although he is full of smiles and grins, but his heart is not as harmonious as it appears on the surface.

However, the prince also knew that there was no turning back for the Silver Hand royal family, because in order to show their sincerity, they planned to personally bring the angels of heaven to observe the secrets of Iberia's endless energy.

St. Valentine's old god was watching ahead at the unique device, a strange vapor device, consisting of countless strange round and prismatic vessels, each filled with a variety of colored liquids, from crimson liquids to clear greens, each containing a different aetheric energy.

At the heart of the lighthouse's mouth is a massive steam machine, with complex pipes and rotating gears forming its body. Steam travels through the pipes, driving the surrounding machinery. More mysterious, however, is that there seems to be some unknown connection between these vessels and steam machinery.

When the steam machine starts running, the surrounding arc begins to flicker and make a clanging sound.

These arcs jump from vessel to vessel to form a mysterious grid of symbols that draw bizarre symbols in the air, as if to summon some mysterious power.

The liquid of each utensil seems to interact with the electric arc, creating a mysterious chemical reaction.

The liquid began to tumble, the colors became more vibrant, and a strange steam rose from the vessel.

This vapor gathers above the mouth of the lighthouse, forming a huge vortex that appears to be a gateway to another world.

Under the flickering of the electric arc, the steam machinery at the mouth of the lighthouse ran even wilder, and the air around it seemed to become thicker.

"[Plutonium-186] is considered impossible in real physics, and in thaumaturgical terms, this displacement requires a powerful ARad field and EVE particles, and this is only a simple replacement. It is important to know that in the nucleus, the nuclear force is the force that maintains the combination of protons and neutrons, however, when the number of protons and neutrons is not balanced, the nuclear force is also affected, resulting in the instability of the nucleus, and the unstable nuclides tend to transform into more stable nuclides through the process of nuclear decay.

In this process, the nuclide may emit radiation or particles, and [plutonium-186] is likely to undergo nuclear decay immediately upon its creation, transforming into other, more stable nuclides due to the instability of its nuclear structure.

And from a conservation perspective, [plutonium-186] is classified as a superheavy nucleus due to its ratio and number of protons and neutrons; Overweight nuclei are often highly unstable and difficult to produce through natural processes. Therefore, the EVE particles that need to be consumed to replace and permanently store them for a long time are not equal at all. ”

The Grey Knight Grand Mentor, who was walking with the first sword-wielder, stared solemnly at the mouth of the lighthouse in front of him, carefully observing the colorful steam devices, the computation structure of the heavenly lineage flickered countless data from his eyes, the EVE particles on his body fluctuated slightly, and with the help of Eden's loading module, he successfully observed the incredible [Plutonium-186].

There are no distorted fluctuations on it, that is, it is a natural product·····

However, Terra's temporal physics would not allow such a product to exist, although Terra's academic community has been ridiculing that thaumaturgy = physics does not exist.

However, this usually refers to jokes about the intervention of non-supernatural factors, and there is also a huge thaumaturgy based on thaumaturgy in the Terra academic world, which includes [Essential Urging] that refers to thaumaturgy, as well as thaumaturgical physics that is required for beginner thaumaturgists, theological interference principles that are compulsory for advanced [Crowners], mythological factor theory, and so on·····

As the Grand Mentor of the Gray Knight, although he is now in a military position, he is also an outstanding high-achieving student who graduated from the [Loyal Heir Academy], and has served as a high-ranking angel in the position of Heavenly Sect and Commissioner.

As a core member of the [Rebaptist School], he came to the [New Lisbon Hub] to investigate the Avalon system and everything related to it, for the [Rebaptist School], if you want to create [Hakoniwa World], you need to find an absolutely safe curtain system, which will be one of the core structures of the [Lateran Project].

This new Veil system will be a thaumaturgical composite based on the current Veil of Heaven, and the Avalon system is one of the targets of the [Rebaptists].

"You're right, the stability of a nuclide is affected by the number of protons and neutrons, and the ratio of protons and neutrons determines the stability of the nucleus. In [plutonium-186], the ratio of protons to neutrons is not in a stable range, making it impossible for the nuclide to exist naturally. ”

As a prince who had returned from studying abroad, he also knew how incredible it was for [Plutonium-186] to exist in its natural state, and with this incredulity, he began to puff up his chest, and began his own explanation to the two angels with unconcealed complacency:

"You two, you must have heard of the Broken God's [electronic channel]."

The prince's arrogant tone successfully attracted the eyes of the two angels, the Grey Knight Grand Mentor Mantz's gaze was squirry and puzzled, and St. Valentine's amber eyes were as calm and indifferent as ever.

I don't know why, when looking at the first sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven, the prince suddenly flashed a trace of trance and creepy, for a moment, he felt that his spirituality, his own intelligence, and his own body were presented in front of the other party's eyes at this moment.

You don't know anything.

Desolation and sorrow resounded from within him, and his soul wailed.

The next moment, everything was anomalous.

The prince forgot everything, and the smug words continued to come out of his mouth.

"There is a [Void Dragon Well] at the base of Mount Olympus on Mars, and [McCann] is housed in the ancient Dragon Well, serving as a think tank for the Church of the Mechanica, waiting for the restoration of the divine body. And in the ancient dragon well there is a Void Dragon, in legend, this Void Dragon is the soul of the God of Machines, and his existence has changed the whole of Mars, not only the landscape of Mars, but even the [World Parameters] of Mars has been modified by Him.

There, the aetheric ocean overlaps with reality, like the New York of the Addison Federation, but Mars overlaps more thoroughly and singularly, where only machinery is allowed. There is a rumor in the Church of the Mechanics that in order to continue the fight against the immensity he covers, McCann has created a massive mechanical planet comparable to Mars, and the essence of this planet is a transformable [Tinder] and a giant war weapon; It is also rumored that in ancient times, a group of ancient humans followed the Void Dragon to Mars before the formation of [Crystal Sky], and they evolved and developed a complex culture and class system under the light of the fire, and have completed interstellar colonization in areas beyond [Crystal Sky].

And the believers and creators of the God of All Machines were able to accomplish these feats based on the [Electron Channel], and we all know that if you want to go on an interstellar voyage, then the energy required is very large. And now, the [Electron Channel] created by the God of All Machines is providing a near-endless and pollution-free source of energy, which provides the most basic energy needs for navigation. ”

The Prince of the Silver Hand pointed to the mouth of the lighthouse behind him, and after making sure that both angels had set their eyes in the direction he was pointing, he continued contentedly:

"Mars, shrouded by the Void Dragon, has been completely stripped from the basis of reality, and although it still exists in the starry sky above Terra, it has been twisted into a parallel world by the massive [Mythic Factor] and [McCann]'s Mimu, of course, the people of the Church of the Mechanics call them "Kingdom of God", and it is clear that the physical rules of this parallel universe (Kingdom of God) are significantly different from ours.

In a quasi-parallel universe, the nature of nuclear forces is different from ours. This allows some nuclides that are impossible to exist in our universe to exist stably in parallel universes. For example, the present [plutonium-186] is stable in a parallel universe and is unstable in our universe.

And [the electron channel] is the bridge that connects the two universes, and it allows matter and energy to be exchanged between the two universes.

The existence and working mechanism of [the electron channel] is based on the difference in the physical rules of the two universes, through which the exchange of matter and energy can take place between the two universes. We can replace Terra's [Tungsten-186] with the parallel universe-like [Plutonium-186], and through this substitution, Terra can obtain free energy from the mekhan-like kingdom of God, which is mainly released by the matter of the kingdom of God when the radioactive energy generated by positrons is released on Terra.

The reason why the machine god created the kingdom of God is because the two universes can transfer matter between each other, so that both sides can obtain an endless source of energy, and most of the high-level thaumaturgists and mechanical creations of the Church of Machines in Terra today are able to open the [electronic channel] to obtain endless energy. ”

At this moment, the more the silver-handed prince spoke, the more excited he became, his eyes exuded unprecedented enthusiasm, and his right hand was clenched into a fist, sonorous and full of passion.

"Iberia, breaking the monopoly of the high-level thaumaturgists on the kingdom of God, we and Iberia have stolen the energy of the mekhan, so that the entire country has access to almost unlimited energy, with the assistance of endless energy, Iberia has not only become the overlord of the coast, but also successfully completed the country's comprehensive high-welfare reform, I dare say, there is not a single Iberian and the residents of the new Lisbon hub who are not proud of their country!"

Prince Tyre's deafening speech did not attract the admiration and surprise he expected, he found that the middle-aged angel wearing a black trench coat with a cold temperament looked at him as if his eyes flashed a little scarlet, and he subconsciously looked at the first sword-wielder in the kingdom of heaven out of fear.

You don't know anything.

As he looked into those amber eyes, Tyre's soul screamed again, but he forgot again.

"Parallel-universe matter is transferred to Terra, where positrons are released, producing radioactive energy and becoming a new source of energy. However, when the two universes are connected through the [electron channel], their physical rules will penetrate each other, causing the strong forces of the two universes to tend to balance. The strong force of the Kingdom of God is stronger than that of the Terra universe, so the result of this interpenetration will lead to the strengthening of the Terra universe, and the increase of the strong force of the Terra universe may cause the sun to explode, which is an extremely serious hazard that may lead to the destruction of human civilization. ”

Mantz's cold words rang in the prince's ears.

"The Mechanical Church only allows high-level thaumaturgists to use the [Electron Channel] because only high-level thaumaturgists can act as filter sealers, filtering and sealing off the strong force that infiltrates them, what about you?"

Ripples rippled in the void, and a spinning chainsaw knife was pulled out by Mantz.

"Stealing the power of the Mekhan, fire stealer?"

Seeing this, dozens of steam soldiers around him did not hesitate to activate the knight rune.

In an instant, they appeared in front of the Great Master like ghosts, and surrounded him tightly.

Puff –

The thrusters behind the steam alloy guns began to squirt, accompanied by a sharp thruster sound, and the air was filled with the smell of steam and gunpowder.

Qiang –

The silver light arced through, and in this silver brilliance was hidden the scythe of death.

Almost instantly, blood splattered like vermilion flowers blooming in the air.

The ten besieging steam knights were split in half in an instant, and before they could feel the pain, their bodies had already fallen to the cold ground, blood staining the battlefield red.

The Grand Mentor of the Grey Knight looked at the prince who was shrouded in fear and trembling under his killing intent like a dead man.

He questioned him:

"You guys are also worthy of stealing fire?"
