The battle ended again with Aatrox's victory.

Why?

He never lost.

Credo was dumbfounded as he looked at it, even if the greatsword that Aatrox was using now was an experimental version, the weight before charging it was far beyond the maximum limit he could bear in the setting.

Good fellow, he even produced a wave of qi that was visible to the naked eye when he first swung it.

"Aatrox ......"

Although he had known for a long time that this kid was the one with the greatest potential among all of them, the ability that Aatrox showed today forced Credo to think about the meaning of his name.

"Don't forget to count the numbers of this battle."

After Azir's reminder, Credo reacted from her stunned state, and she hurriedly sorted out the data automatically recorded in the computer, but was surprised again.

Because the moment Aatrox raised his sword, the linear table of strength and spirit was like a mountain rising from the ground, although his values were not low in normal times, but they were dwarfed by that moment.

After that, however, his stats dropped quickly.

Azir noticed that Credot was the same, so he also went over to take a look, he didn't know if he didn't see it, he was shocked when he saw it, Aatrox's physical strength and spiritual power at that moment had reached the standards required for the Ascension Ceremony!

Azir looked at the boy who was now sitting on the ground, panting, a boy of this age who had no complicated thoughts, and was very happy to win.

But Azil's eyes were complicated, he really admired Aatrox and hoped that he could become his own ascendant, but if the current progress of the project continued, Aatrox would not think about it unless he could live two lifetimes.

That would be a pity.

Aatrox couldn't lift his sword at all, and he staggered to his feet, walked up to the knocked down child, and smiled and stretched out his hand to him.

Seeing this, Azir became even more determined in his heart, he should and must become an ascendant! Become one of those heroes who lead mortals to glory!

"Let's use those weapons for training as soon as possible." Azir said to Credor.

"But now that the data of those weapons has just been debugged, is it too early to invest?" Credo voiced her concerns.

"We have a nice bunch of kids, don't we?" Azir set his sights on the children who were already in the crowd, Aatrox was their centerpiece, "and they will get used to it." ”

When the Shurima entered the age of thirty, their physical functions were already mature, but they had not yet fully become adults in appearance, and their childhood and adolescence were very short, and Azir was looking forward to the day when Aatrox would grow up.

A week later, the work at the space base was busy, and all the researchers and engineering teams did not go home last night, they were proofreading the indicators before the launch of the probe, and not a single value could be wrong, because the gravitational pull and temperature of the star would not be merciless.

No one can afford to take on the responsibility of a thousand-mile embankment that collapses in an anthill, and the slightest mistake can lead to the failure of the entire project, so the university scholar Asitaya personally supervised the entire project from beginning to end.

He was now staring at a team of engineers working on the rover, and as the group walked away from the probe with notebooks and electronic gauges, Asitaya asked:

"Checked them all? Are you sure there's nothing wrong with that? This launch is a very important project, and there is no room for error. ”

The leader of the squad greeted the scholar and said, "Report to the scholar, all indicators are normal, and the launch mission can be carried out." ”

He spoke with confidence on his face.

"Okay, I'll hold you accountable if something happens."

Asitaya glanced at him, the team leader's expression had become wooden, and after making sure that he had put enough pressure, he asked again: "If it's ready, notify the space elevator to do a good job." ”

The team leader stammered, "Scholar... I...... I think we should check it again to be on the safe side, for the sake of the astronauts' lives, after all, they have to install it manually there! ”

Asitaya pinched his chin in thought, and finally nodded, agreeing with him: "I think you're right, then go quickly, time waits for no one!" ”

The leader of the team took his own people to check it seven or eight times, and although he was still not at ease in the end, he still reported it to Asitaya.

Asitaya didn't want to make things difficult for them, but just wanted them to be careful, so he let the maintenance team rest, of course, their person in charge was still worried, wondering if what he had done was not good enough.

After all the preparations on the ground were made, it was the turn of the space elevator, and Shurima formed a space force, and they were stationed on a large space station built in outer space, which was the highest convergence point of Shurima's existing technology.

The connection between heaven and earth is a space elevator with a height of tens of thousands of meters erected from the ground, which is much faster than anything else than a rocket spacecraft, and it can reach the space force station from the ground in ten minutes.

Asitaya, after getting everything ready, contacted Azir.

Azir, for his part, informed Shurima that the Space Force on the periphery of Shurima's atmosphere was ready to accept the job.

Since its creation, the space force has been under the orders of Emperor Azir alone.

If the dying star can successfully use this energy and store it, then not only the Ascendant, but also Shurima's various technologies will be improved again, and maybe it can directly break the bottleneck of the space-level civilization.

That's why the Academy of Sciences built this probe to measure the energy frequency of the star now, and they wanted to know how to make the most of it in the twilight of the star.

"Scholar, the space elevator is ready to take off, and His Majesty is already waiting at the Academy of Sciences." Someone reported to Asitaya.

"Let's get started."

With Asitaya's order, there was a sudden vibration on the ground not far away, and the octagonal space elevator was activated with more than a dozen rocket thrusters, and it was raised several hundred meters in an instant.

The astronauts inside who were waiting to install the probe also fainted in the process of gravity climbing rapidly, but almost all of them were genetically raised superhumans, so they quickly adapted and woke up.

Someone looked out the window, and the white sky turned black in an instant, and countless rain of fire turned into lines and flew downward—those were stars that were moving at a relatively fast speed.

Along the way, they saw troops in spacesuits tinkering with the space station, as well as flashes of humanoid and spider-type large mechs, and countless spaceship formations organizing training missions in their respective jurisdictions.

Although it is not the first time that such a space elevator has been made, they will still be amazed by such a spectacular sight.

Who would have thought that this was the result of twenty years of development by Shurima.

In the past twenty years, Shurima has been one step away from developing into an astronautical civilization.

Because of the sun, they have to move so fast that no one can accurately estimate when the star will go out.

Crisis is the first driving force for the development of civilization.

The space elevator slowly stopped in the isolation area of the space station, and after balancing the air pressure, the head of the Space Force took them in.

"Good work."

The person in charge saluted them.

But they only had time for one or two sentences to greet each other.

Because His Majesty the Emperor is in the Academy of Sciences, observing everything through the camera, so the big leader is pressed there, and everyone's heart is not easy.

So after a few astronauts made a slight adjustment to the space station, they hurried to the outer periphery of the star on the space force's spacecraft equipped with a space folding device, where the probe's bracket had been arranged.

The rest of the assembly work was too delicate and needed to be manually installed.

After several astronauts arrived, they were enveloped by a violent heat before they left the spacecraft, and even though they were wearing thick isolation suits, they were still sweating.

It is easier to see the sun in Shurima, but the outer periphery of the star has completely turned the color of blood, and the environment here has no signs of life, which is always reminiscent of the legendary hell.

The probe is a spherical white device, and the astronauts are under tremendous psychological pressure to assemble it, and because it has been trained countless times, the assembly process is relatively smooth.

The assembled probe was pushed away from its intended orbital position, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the probe gradually move closer to the scarlet star's gravitational sphere.

They don't expect to be able to recover it, as long as they can collect enough data before it burns down.

And now that the astronauts' mission is complete, they are all relieved.

But then someone noticed that something was wrong.

It's not that something is wrong with the detector.

It's the sun.

An astronaut squinted and took a closer look, his eyes widened instantly, and he pulled his companion.

As a result, it was as if they had seen something terrible.

In the monitoring hall of the Academy of Sciences, their voices echoed from the blood-colored space:

"OMG! What's that? ”

"Dark shadows? Could it be turbulence? ”

"No....... no! It's moving! It's ...... It's absorbing the energy of our sun!

"Oh my God! What's that, exactly? That's a tube? Or tentacles?

"How can any creature stand the heat of the star?!!"

"That's ...... That's ....... that's an alien spaceship!! ”

This was the last sound that came back before the picture was cut off.

Frightened, helpless.
