Chapter 272 - 272: Preparing for the Final Arrival
[ Detected the lost Star Engineering Equipment B, reestablishing connection… ]
[ The transfer of control has been completed. Star Engineering Equipment B is awaiting orders. ]
Li Wenyuan’s spaceship followed the tracks of Grand Duke Yinxing in the Milky Way Network and found the Grand Duke’s hiding place.
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. Even if it was just a few clues, they would be enough to form a complete chain of events. Moreover, the Grand Duke did not hide it very well.
After all, he still had to control the businesses in the black world to provide food for his large family of subordinates. As long as there was communication, it was inevitable to leave a record.
After confirming the location, the spaceship directly warped to the hiding place. He didn’t even need to take the initiative. The engineering equipment that he had left behind automatically established a connection with him, and at the same time, the status of the spaceship was refreshed back to the beginning.
“It saves me the effort to deal with it… I thought that the Grand Duke had already taken control of it, but it seemed that creation with an active purification agreement would not be easily controlled.”
The process of recycling was so smooth that Li Wenyuan found it a little unbelievable, but he soon felt relieved.
Now that the active purification agreement had been resolved, the disasters that it might have buried in the past would now lose their effectiveness. Now, he was equivalent to holding the highest control.
“However, this group of people actually wanted to survive collectively on this mobile star supercharger. They really did not want to live anymore… Did they really realize how dangerous a supernova explosion was?”
After receiving the authority, Li Wenyuan naturally noticed the large number of corpses inside the engineering equipment, but he did not sympathize with them at ail.
Those who could still be kept in the vehicle by Grand Duke Yinxing were naturally his trusted aides. These guys had done a lot of dirty work in secret, and they were behind many terrorist attacks that shocked Milky Way.
It could be said that they were all unpardonable villains. Even if they died, it would be considered as getting rid of evil for the Milky Way.
Li Wenyuan couldn’t help but laugh when he glanced at the data recorded inside the spaceship.
The mobile star supercharger was an engineering spaceship. Other than turning a star into a neutron star or a black hole, adjusting the position of small celestial bodies was also one of its functions.
The engineering equipment also recorded the last order it executed before it was lost. It was left behind by the active purification agreement, which asked the engineering equipment to bring a neutron star to bomb the custody agreement.
A neutron star with a radius of only 15 kilometers, but its mass was greater than the sun. If there was a way to launch it, the neutron star would be the best cannonball.
The method was very primitive, but it was powerful enough. Ordinary protective measures would not be able to stop a neutron star from rampaging.
Although the active purification agreement was defeated by the custody agreement and fell into a state of a shutdown again, the engineering equipment with the neutron star was not recovered in time and was still floating in space.
One day, the Grand Duke, who was in dire straits, discovered this wandering engineering equipment and started his business from it.
He thought that the neutron star bound to the bottom of the spaceship was the power source of the spaceship, but in fact, the energy source of the spaceship itself came from the dark matter reactor inside the spaceship.
With his shallow knowledge, he was naturally unable to recognize this matter. He was naturally suspicious and unwilling to let scientists with enough knowledge study this engineering equipment, afraid that others would take away his treasure.
He relied on his half-baked knowledge and speculation about the lost technology to come up with a super spaceship that uses the neutron star to travel with unknown power and promoted it to his subordinates.
The automatic operating system on the spaceship was not that intelligent. It would only respond to specific keywords. The equipment that was only responsible for execution naturally did not need built-in artificial intelligence. Moreover, the spaceship itself was not designed for life boarding.
The Grand Duke did not know the true purpose of the spaceship. He thought that the star compression was to recharge the spaceship, and he was worried that the spaceship would run out of power after the neutron star that was bound to it was lost due to a misoperation.
All in all, Grand Duke Yinxing had misunderstood the type of spaceship from the beginning. He had mistaken the engineering equipment used to shoot down meteorites and shatter planets for the equipment of battleships.
He even foolishly used the zero-element matter samples collected on the spaceship as fuel and put them into the dark matter reactor of the spacecraft.
Fortunately, the structure of the reactor was strong enough, and because of the working environment, it had been specially processed to prevent the loss of elemental materials. Otherwise, this engineering equipment would have been destroyed by the reactor explosion.
“Should 1 really say whether he’s lucky or unlucky to be able to live up there safely…”
Li Wenyuan sighed. Then, he inspected the interior of the spaceship.
Recovering the lost moving star compactor was just a side effect. What he really wanted to find was the Miniature Galaxy that the Grand Duke had taken away.
It was not difficult to find the box. Even if the Grand Duke had built a secret room in the spaceship to store his collection, it would still be exposed after everything was restored to its original state.
Soon, he found this magical box with the help of the internal monitor. The special sub-space field surrounding the box instantly confirmed that this was what he was looking for.
After getting the drone to move the Miniature Galaxy back to the research spaceship, he began to study the magical box.
The surface of the middle section of the box was a transparent crystal similar to glass, allowing people to see the internal structure directly with the naked eye.
The interior was as empty as the universe, and there were a large number of twinkling stars. As far as the eye could see, the celestial bodies were revolving in the galaxy.
It was like a miniature universe. After being sealed in the box, it actually gave the audience the illusion that he was the creator.
As long as he found a suitable method, he could destroy this box with a flick of his finger, along with the galaxy inside.
At this moment, the creation of the world did not seem to be as unreachable as it was in myths.
The Miniature Galaxy had an incredible collection value just from its visual effects. Li Wenyuan was sure that even if the technology used was ignored, the Miniature Galaxy would definitely make collectors fight for it.
However, the lost items that could be recorded in the archives were definitely not only valuable on the surface. Rather, their true value lay in the technology that was like a fantasy.
[ Miniature Galaxy – Silence ]
[ Introduction: One of the collections of the Miniature World series. A large galaxy containing three stars, more than forty planets, and countless asteroids is sealed inside. There are no signs of life, only a sad silence. ]
[ Based on the analysis of the Miniature Galaxy, our understanding of the creation theory and subspace engineering has improved.. ]
