Ultraman: The Dark Shadow Mage, Creating a Magic Empire

Chapter 25 Let's go see Hengxing.

"Oh, let's go then. What are you doing?"

Erica killed three more Slit-Mouth Beasts and suddenly saw Mandy collecting Slit-Mouth Beast body parts.

Moreover, his movements were clean and efficient, indicating that he often did this kind of thing and was very familiar with the Slit-Mouth Beast!

"Ahem, although the Slit-Mouthed Beast is a thoroughly studied creature, its mouthparts and whip-like body parts are very sturdy and have excellent magical conductivity, making them excellent alchemical materials..."

"It's okay to collect them now, but you won't be able to later."

"Thank you, Captain!"

"Let's go, we need to head to the next area."

Erica knew about Mandy and the Mance family's situation, and that such an attack on and killing of a monster, followed by the collection of materials, was permissible.

However, if you hunt animals privately and voluntarily, that is poaching, which is absolutely forbidden in today's environment and will be punished as a criminal offense!

As captain, Erica can help her teammates within the rules.

But outside of the rules, she will abide by the laws set by her own brother, the king!

The group ventured deeper into the area once more, and their subsequent exploration was thrilling yet safe.

While they were exploring the hollow center of the earth, half a year had passed in the outside world.

In six months, the workshops, operating at full capacity, produced enough alchemical array bases and deployed them all over the world.

"Your Majesty, the array base has been fully deployed. Now we just need to wait for the core magic array to be inscribed before we can attempt to activate it."

"Yes, after constructing the super-large barrier, we also need to make a backup plan and replicate the magic circle that allowed the Shadowmoon civilization to infiltrate the shadow side of the universe. We must be prepared for both possibilities."

"yes!"

Norman watched as the magic circle was set up.

Once the magic circle was fully established, Norman used the power of his bloodline to inform the people of the entire nation.

"Citizens of the Black Kingdom!"

Norman's voice resonated in everyone's hearts, whether they were Azuremen or Treants, or even those on Shadow Star, they all heard his call.

"It's His Majesty's voice!"

"Where is Your Majesty speaking?"

"You have only just joined the Empire, so naturally you don't know that His Majesty can speak with every subject he acknowledges. Our bloodline was also bestowed upon us by His Majesty after receiving divine revelation!"

"I know that! My bloodline is a gift from His Majesty! Praise be to His Majesty!"

"Bravour, Your Majesty!"

Norman's voice rang out on both planets, and as they praised him, Norman's voice rang out again.

"Over the past twelve years, we have witnessed the tragedy of stars going out, but the long night of winter could not defeat us. We have overcome the darkness and the cold winter with our actions!"

"And what we will face next is an atmosphere that has dissipated due to the cold, and a wandering in endless deep space without the pull of stars..."

……

"How could something like this happen without starlight and sunlight?"

What does it mean to lose an atmosphere?

"As mentioned in open courses at science and technology universities, our planet has an atmosphere that can block the scorching heat from the sun and also block some things called radiation from the universe."

"What if we can't stop it?"

"It seems that if we can't block it, we'll have to face the sun's heat directly, and everything on the ground will melt, just like snow. If we can't block the radiation, our bodies will be riddled with holes."

"How terrifying?"

"certainly!"

"So what do we do now?"

Norman's expedition saved many lives.

After being rescued, these people wholeheartedly joined the Black Kingdom, considering themselves citizens of the Black Kingdom and citizens of Norman.

They awakened their bloodline, became children of the night, and gained power.

But human nature is hard to change, especially for ordinary people under the rule of other empires and dynasties.

They gained power, but they simply lived their lives honestly, had children, and followed orders to do their jobs.

If it weren't for the Black Kingdom's mandatory training classes, most of them wouldn't even know how to read!

They certainly wouldn't understand terms like "atmosphere" or "radiation."

The main force driving the development of the Black Kingdom was still the original 30 million citizens of the Black Kingdom. The people who took over later were not even as good as the tree people of Shadow Star.

But after the explanation, these people understood the danger and began to worry.

"Let's hear what His Majesty has to say!"

Those who were knowledgeable immediately shouted, signaling the others not to panic.

Norman watched their every move.

With the system's support, Norman has control over the entire kingdom, and can not only hear everyone's voice but also transmit that voice to everyone.

I haven't been able to see or pay attention to everyone yet!

"Although we face endless dangers, I believe that as long as we unite as one, we can overcome all difficulties and continue our civilization!"

"Now, thanks to the efforts of our scientists and magicians, we have successfully developed a magic array capable of protecting and replacing the atmosphere!"

"Everyone, look up at the sky."

"Above that endless darkness, a high wall will rise to protect us, and one day, we will leave our home planet and venture into the endless depths of space to explore that distant light!"

Norman's voice trailed off.

The next second, a powerful magic circle was activated with the combined efforts of hundreds of magicians.

The light shone brightly, transforming into a pillar of light that shot straight into the sky.

Then the entire magic circle resonated, spontaneously drawing upon the magic power within the planet and connecting with the array bases scattered around the world to jointly construct a powerful shadow barrier.

The beam of light shot into the sky and, after reaching beyond the atmosphere, began to spread outwards.

At the same time, the light rays shooting from the array base also spread out.

That's all magic!

When these light gray films come into contact with each other and merge, a shadow barrier that also covers the atmosphere is completed.

As this barrier was completed, the Azure Star's light in the universe dimmed further.

From this moment on, the Azure Star will no longer be able to be observed outside the Heng galaxy!

This shadow barrier not only protects the atmosphere but also completely simulates its functions, including identification capabilities. People from the Black Kingdom can enter and exit freely, but outsiders will be blocked by the shadow barrier's own abilities.

"It really worked!"

"We did it!"

"Long live!"

The people from the Science and Technology Bureau and the Magic Academy were thrilled, embracing and congratulating each other.

When the people saw this, although they didn't know what it meant, they knew that their great emperor, leading those wise men, had once again resolved the crisis that the kingdom was about to face!

Norman looked at the shadowy barrier in the sky and nodded in satisfaction.

He then used magic to lift himself up and head out of the atmosphere.

He has now reached the planetary level and is able to survive in space.

After learning the magic of flight, he was able to travel through space, though not at a fast speed, but enough to support a close-range exploration that would last for more than a decade.

He's going to check out Hengxing!

Let's see what happened when the star went out!
