I made science magic

On the disc-shaped spaceship, after the long creature had cleaned up the civilized planet, it turned its head and looked at the archon behind it. Circles of colors began to flash on the surface of its skin. This was their communication organ.
By transmitting electromagnetic waves of various frequencies to transmit information, real-time communication can be achieved even in outer space.
"Very good, now that we have captured this star system, we don't have to worry about the supply of Element VII." A red light shone around the Archon, representing his joy.
Its appearance is a spire-shaped isosceles triangle, which seems out of place with the rest of the long crew members and exudes an indescribable majesty.
For a civilization that has fully mastered the technology of physical and genetic modification and can weave body forms at will, appearance is not important.
The reason for choosing to transform it into this appearance is due to the worship of geometric shapes. Most of the high-level people in the civilization firmly believe that geometric shapes represent the truth of the universe to some extent.
However, the morphological transformation also has very strict specifications. The lower-level subjects cannot even adopt complete geometric shapes, and vertical strips have become the choice of most people.
As for triangles, squares, polygons, etc. being characteristics of higher citizens…
Above that is the circle, a shape that only the elders and the supreme ruler can transform.
Generally speaking, the higher the status, the rounder its shape!
Because of this, they are also called geometric civilization!
The importance of element seven is self-evident. If they had not accidentally discovered this strange substance that can affect time and space more than a thousand years ago, thus ushering in a scientific research boom, they would probably still be a level four civilization that barely stepped into the galaxy level, and it would be impossible for them to survive the last war with silicon-based life forms.
Thinking of this, the light around the Archon turned from red to black, an expression of fear and anger.
Those damn silicon-based monsters come from the neighboring Four-Cantilever Galaxy. They are like the Li insects (locust-like creatures), expanding endlessly in various galaxies, plundering all resources, converting them into armies and warships, fighting to support war, and refusing to accept any negotiations. They have now become the enemy of geometric civilization.
If there was no element VII, the mother planet located on the border between two galaxies would have been breached long ago.
"Mr. Archon, we have just received a message asking for help!" Another square-shaped adjutant beside him suddenly interrupted the Archon's thoughts.
"Can you determine the direction and distance?" The Archon calmed down his fluctuating emotions and hid his thoughts. He was a little worried that the mother planet might have been attacked...
"The message should come from seventy light years away, not a message from the mother planet..." A long branch extended from the square adjutant's body and pointed in the void. A complex galaxy map suddenly appeared above everyone's head.
There are densely packed stars all over it.
Each star point is a star, and the position of each planet is even marked in detail. However, nearly half of the area is still a foggy area, with only the corresponding stars marked. The specific situation within the galaxy is still a mystery.
These areas are either under the jurisdiction of some powerful civilizations, or relatively dangerous or marginal areas, and the location pointed by the square crew member is a marginal area.
The Archon's mood fluctuated again, this time with a slightly reddish look of confusion, because according to records they had not sent any fleets there.
"The communication uses a very old encryption method. According to the retrieved records, it is an encryption method that was abandoned thousands of years ago." The square adjutant reported.
"Are they the remaining ships from that exploration?" The Archon reacted immediately.
After completing a new round of technological breakthroughs, the mother star directly became one of the most powerful civilizations in the visible star field. Then, it began to explore the entire galaxy with great ambition and prepared to draw a complete galaxy map.
A total of seventy exploration fleets consisting of one battleship and two frigates were dispatched.
Although they were few in number, they were the most advanced ships at the time.
Unlike some civilizations that prefer to win by numbers, they prefer to strive for excellence. According to the elders, creating a large number of cannon fodder is meaningless and just a waste of resources.
As for daily patrols between star regions? Modified old ships or civilian ships with some weapons can also be used.
However, the result of this exploration was not good. Only half of the seventy exploration fleets returned, which greatly dampened the enthusiasm of the enterprising faction. It also provoked a powerful enemy and dragged the mother planet into an endless quagmire of war.
It was precisely because of the continuous wars that they could not spare too much energy to search for the inexplicably disappeared fleets throughout the entire star field. They could only swallow the bitter fruit silently and mark these areas as dangerous areas.
The square adjutant, who had consulted the database, naturally thought that the message was most likely sent by a certain exploration fleet, and soon his body began to emit electromagnetic waves again.
"The communications we received were intermittent. They seem to have discovered a new, very powerful energy source... perhaps comparable to Element 7!"
An energy source that can rival element VII? The Archons immediately took it seriously. This could very well mean a new technological breakthrough, or even be the key to Geometry Civilization’s victory over those silicon-based monsters!
"I think the other civilization's technological level should be inferior to ours. Although they killed the exploration fleet sent by the mother planet, they did not completely destroy it. Otherwise, we would not have received this message." The square adjutant suggested.
"No, you missed a very important detail. This information came from a thousand years ago. At that time, the other party had the technology to block communications, but now they allow the information to be passed out. I suspect this may be a trap!" another adjutant retorted.
Although the technologies of this exploration fleet thousands of years ago were relatively imperfect, they were equipped with quantum communication technology. Within this galaxy, the communication delay was about one atomic minute.
It doesn't make sense that he was intercepted then but can be summoned again now.
Colorful light waves kept flashing inside the spacecraft, indicating that the dispute was becoming increasingly intense.
The consul was also caught in a dilemma.
This could be a rare opportunity, but it could also be a dangerous trap...
Over the past thousand years, due to the stimulation of war, the technological progress of the Geometric civilization has not been slow, and the spacecraft has been updated several times. But in fact, there has been no real technological breakthrough... It has only continued to improve on the original basis to enhance the performance or power of weapons.
He had heard that some cutting-edge scholars on his home planet had already made some progress in the research of curvature engines, which was the key to developing superluminal spacecraft, but it would take a long time before they could be put into service.
And because of the war, they can only mobilize a limited number of forces...
But soon they didn't have to think about it anymore, because a communication came from the mother planet.
The content is very concise. You can go to the place where the signal is sent and judge the situation by yourself.
If the civilization that destroyed the exploration fleet is relatively weak, just destroy it, find that special energy and bring it back.
If the technological level is very high, they will try to coexist peacefully, indicating that they had previously sent an exploration fleet for friendly exchanges, but some misunderstandings accidentally occurred in the process.
The consul chose to execute this order without hesitation. It is a common practice of Geometry Civilization to evaluate the way of getting along with others based on strength and threat level.
There are infinite possibilities in the vast universe. No one knows how many unknown elements and energies there are. It is entirely possible for a weak civilization to surpass a powerful civilization in just a few thousand years.
For example, although the civilization they destroyed before posed no threat to the mother planet, a large reserve of element VII was discovered in the star system, which means that the other side may launch a round of technological innovation at any time.
It would undoubtedly be foolish to pin hopes on the kindness of the enemy. This area cannot accommodate two powerful galaxy-level civilizations. Rather than waiting for a dispute to break out thousands of years later, it is better to resolve it now.
"Where are our closest coordinates to this star system?" White light waves radiated around the Archon, with a cold expression on his face.
"Near the Sihal Nebula, the target star system is about 240 atomic hours (eight light years) away, and there are two other fleets within 50 atomic hours of us. We may be able to request support!" the adjutant replied.
The Archon nodded, issued an order for help, and then maneuvered the spaceship to hover above the red, dazzling star.
Then, the bottom layer of the spacecraft suddenly unfolded, four wide cantilevers extended from the inside, and the space began to distort and deform...
Under the influence of strong gravity, the energy on the surface of the star was quickly drawn away, forming a huge plasma flame vortex, and a steady stream of fusion energy rushed into the spacecraft frantically.
Although the battle just now was resolved by a crushing situation, the energy consumption was not a small amount. Fortunately, they are in a star system and can replenish energy in time...
The Archon waited quietly for the energy pool to be filled, then slowly picked out a ball the size of a finger joint and placed it into the launch port.
This time the launch speed was very "slow", not even reaching one tenth of the speed of light. After flying for an atomic fraction of a second, the sphere began to collapse inwards suddenly, and the surrounding space curled up and spread inwards, and a temporary wormhole was soon formed.
The geometric aliens inside the spacecraft went into hibernation one after another, and the three spacecraft flew out at sub-light speed and rushed into the surging space-time node.
Chapter 568: Are you sure they are the alien life forms we are looking for?
A week later, in the capital of the Magic Kingdom, Lin En and his companions who had successfully returned from the moon landing immediately attracted the attention of all the people in the capital.
After all, the spaceship they brought back was so huge that it almost covered the entire sky and could not be covered even if they wanted to.
Many civilians suspected that this was the latest super weapon developed by the parliament, and some even thought that this was a city floating in the sky...
A large number of alchemists were very interested in this spoils from the moon. Various research application reports filled the Wizard Council, but only a few great wizards were qualified to conduct the research.
Considering that the spaceship was too large to fit even in the royal capital, Lin En simply placed it in the Land of Death - the place where the nuclear explosion experiment was conducted.
After a hydrogen explosion, the radiation level in this area has returned to normal levels. However, due to the various horrifying rumors before, not many people are willing to approach this place, which is just right for the research of some cutting-edge magical achievements.
"Is this the alchemical creation that killed the Moon God? It's really... huge!" Raphael was amazed when he saw the spaceship in front of him, which was almost the size of a village.
Dennis even kept circling around the disc-shaped aircraft and searched for a long time but couldn't find the thrusters. In the end, he could only guess that it might have been destroyed.
"Strange, why is its shape round?" Dennis touched his chin, puzzled.
In his opinion, the most perfect aircraft should have a shape that conforms to fluid mechanics as much as possible. Although a disc-shaped object can resist resistance better than a square object, it is obviously not perfect.
"The vacuum of the universe is different from the interior of an Eternal Star, so there is no need to consider wind resistance." Lin En explained, frowning as he pondered the problem.
There are also many spacecraft appearance designs in the database of the intelligent brain, which basically tend to be diamond-shaped or semi-circular, which is conducive to the work of the thrusters. If it is a disc, the uneven force may cause it to rotate directly.
However, Lin En was very clear about one fact: a true galaxy-level civilization would obviously not make such a low-end mistake. If they couldn't understand it, it could only mean that the technological gap between the two sides had reached an incomprehensible level.
Vittorio and the others also discussed whether the circle has the effect of reducing certain resistance in space...
Raphael on the side opened his mouth and said, since there is no need to consider wind resistance, is there a possibility that the civilization that built this spaceship likes circles!
But in the end, Raphael swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. After all, the speakers obviously knew more than he did. Maybe there really was some deeper meaning behind it...
The discussion on the appearance of the spacecraft stopped at this point. There are so many things worth studying about such a large spacecraft. The first is the material used for the outer shell of the spacecraft. After experimenting with [Divine Art - Matter Deconstruction], Lin En was surprised to find that he could actually analyze this material smoothly.
And to his surprise, the core element for making spacecraft is very common iron, and it also contains carbon, silicon, vanadium, zirconium and other elements...
The special thing is the arrangement structure of the chemical bonds between these elements, which is a very unique diamond structure.
It is a common method to improve the strength of materials by changing the arrangement structure of elements inside the material.
For example, the essence of graphene is carbon, and blocks of graphite can be easily smashed by a child. However, when it exists in a single-layer two-dimensional honeycomb lattice structure, it has a strength hundreds of times higher than that of steel of the same grade!
As for why the most abundant element is iron...
Lin En pondered for a while and felt that this might be related to the properties of iron itself. In the fusion process, iron is a very obvious dividing line. The fusion of elements above this line requires reverse absorption of energy rather than release. This means that the cost of manufacturing it is not high, and energy can even be obtained in the process.
Of course, there could be some deeper reasons...
Lin En stretched out his hand, and various elements in the void began to surge. Iron, carbon, vanadium, zirconium and other elements were arranged together in a specific order and formed into a shape, but at the last moment they fell apart...
Lin En frowned slightly. This was because the electrons of the elements repelled each other because of their like charges.
It seems that the other party has used some method to break the repulsion between atoms, rather than relying solely on chemical reactions. This is their technical barrier!
After figuring this out, Lin En tried again and used the [Antimatter Sword] to cut off a small part of the spacecraft's hull. In the absence of any other energy protection, the sword blade only encountered slight resistance when it cut down.
After obtaining some experimental materials again, Lin En did not directly use [Divine Art - Matter Deconstruction], but instead infiltrated magic and mental power into the material, trying to cut off the chemical bonds between atoms at the microscopic level to explore the reaction between these elements.
After about an hour of hard work and analyzing about two tons of materials, Lin En finally had some ideas. If he wanted to make these elements combine with each other, the key lies in high temperature, strong pressure and high speed. These elements must first be converted into a plasma state, and then ultra-high pressure can be used to make these elements collide with each other at a suitable angle and high speed, thereby overcoming the repulsive force between like-sex electrons.
Lin En stretched out his hand again, and elements such as iron, carbon, vanadium, and zirconium gathered in his palm. Then they turned into plasma under ultra-high temperature, colliding and blending with each other. Then the temperature began to gradually drop, and about one tenth of the elements completed the combination in the collision.
A few seconds later, a special metal in a bright red, spherical shape appeared in his palm, and it continued to stretch and deform according to Lin En's will.
After discovering that the elements inside this substance were rhombus-shaped, Lin En guessed that the spacecraft might have a certain ability to deform, and now his guess has undoubtedly been verified.
Not only that, this thing can also repair itself. Lin En looked at the part of the spaceship that he had cut off. It has now repaired itself, but it has undergone a large degree of stretching and deformation, and its strength has been reduced accordingly.
This should be the reason why this disc-shaped spaceship can still maintain its appearance after experiencing a war between gods.
As for the part at the rear that was severely damaged, Lin En felt that it was because the damage was too wide, and the material's expansion and repair properties also had their limits.
