7 days had passed, and the dark clouds that covered the entire Demon Realm's sky had never dissipated.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but everyone felt a depression that was difficult to dispel in their hearts.
Chen Rui's hunch was correct. Since that day, the 2 moons had never appeared again. For the Demon Realm, the 2 moons were equivalent to the sun and the moon. Without the 2 moons, it was equivalent to losing day and night. No matter what time it was, the sky was gloomy.
This impact was not only on living habits, but it would also bring about various terrible consequences. Just stopping the growth of food alone was a fatal blow.
In the past few days, Chen Rui and others tried various methods. Rolla's magic, Chen Rui's attack, Starlight's bombardment …
However, even if they could temporarily break through the dark clouds, they would soon return to their original state. They could never completely disperse it as if the haze in the sky was an inseparable part of this World Prison. Unless the entire world was destroyed.
This abnormality was by no means accidental. It was probably related to the Abyss that occupied the surface world. Although the Gate of the 2 Realms was closed, and the Abyss creatures including Quiriana could not lift the space blockade and descend into the Demon Realm, everyone still underestimated the means of the Abyss Lord.
As the dark will with divinity, it had vast wisdom and countless mystic arts. It definitely wanted to completely destroy the entire Demon Realm through this means.
This form of "destruction" was more thorough and more terrifying than the previous invasion of the army.
Although the Gate of the 2 Realms would only reopen in a hundred years, it seemed that Quiriana did not intend to give Chen Rui and the Demon Realm a chance to catch their breath.
This was also a recognition of Chen Rui's potential from another perspective. However, for Chen Rui and the entire Demon Realm, the shadow of death that had just faded surged again and engulfed hope.
Chen Rui did not give up because of this. He immediately summoned the alchemy grandmasters and masters of all races, as well as the elven magic civilization researchers, to hold an emergency discussion meeting in the capital.
"Artificial moon?" When Chen Rui proposed this idea on the podium, almost everyone was shocked.
"Aguile … No, Sir Chen Rui, please forgive me for being blunt." The president of the Mechanic Association of the Shadow Empire, Anderson, was the first to stand up, "Even if you are the most powerful alchemist in the world, I have to say that this is an impossible idea. We can create the most delicate items or equipment, but we can't create the sun, moon, and stars. Only gods can do this. "
Almost everyone present agreed with this statement.
Chen Rui looked at Anderson, then at the crowd and smiled. "Master Anderson … No, you should have already entered the realm of a quasi-Grandmaster. First of all, I have to congratulate you. However, I have to say this. With your current knowledge and state, the possibility of you advancing to a Grandmaster is almost zero."
As the world's top mechanic grandmaster, although Chen Rui was fully qualified to say this, his tone was still too heavy, especially in front of so many elites in the alchemy world. However, Anderson was not annoyed. It was not his first time dealing with Chen Rui. He knew very well that the other party was not arrogant. Instead, he looked surprised and bowed, "Please advise."
"For example, before the first legendary grade equipment is born, will our knowledge always stay at the excellent grade? At that time, will we know that there are legendary grade and even god grade above the excellent grade? If we haven't even thought about it, then how did the legendary grade equipment appear in this world? "
Chen Rui's question made Anderson shake his head. A few people such as Tetenis, Fenoa, and Kikui had already shown thoughtful expressions.
"I once said something at the last Demon Realm's exchange meeting. Once the thinking is fixed by a certain framework, it is equivalent to killing the real imagination. From the time we made the first equipment, our lives have been integrated into the world of 'creation'. Whether the sun, moon, and stars are created by the gods or not, the essence of creation remains unchanged. " As Chen Rui spoke, a faint light appeared beside him. It slowly evolved into some shapes. There were magic lamps, TVs, mobile phones, magic airships, magic guns, battle balls, and other new things in the past 10,000 years.
Not only that, but there were also many things that the people present had never seen before. The alchemists suddenly whispered.
"What is that four-wheeled thing running fast on the road?"
"Is that kind of high-rise building with hundreds of floors possible?"
"There is also the huge thing flying in the starry sky. Is it a ship?"
"…"
"Those things just now may appear in our world in the future, or maybe not, but something new … Because the steps of creation are endless." A bright cosmic starry sky appeared behind Chen Rui. "If you want to do this, you must have the courage to break the original thinking inertia and break the shackles of imagination. Creation is infinite possibilities. If we lose the 'possibility', then our world and our power will stagnate … First, we must 'think', then we can 'transcend'. "
When he said "transcend", a light suddenly flashed in Chen Rui's mind. Everyone present felt that the "illusion" of the cosmic starry sky was suddenly full of vitality as if it really existed.
At this moment, many people seemed to be touched by some mysterious breath, and inspiration surged in their minds.
Chen Rui came back to his senses. When he thought of touching the strange light in his mind for the first time, he could no longer do it. He paused slightly and said, "To put it simply, there are only things that can't be imagined, but there is nothing that can't be done. Lord Anderson, I hope that you, I, and everyone can create new possibilities. "
Anderson felt as if he had seen a new door. As long as he touched this door, he could truly break through the shackles and reach a new height. He was overjoyed. He bowed respectfully to Chen Rui with the etiquette of a student and sat down.
Anderson wasn't the only one who felt this way. Many alchemy elites with extraordinary potential were the same. After breaking through some kind of thinking shackles, many creative ideas emerged for a while. Some people began to boldly go on stage to explain their ideas.
"As for the material problem, I think we need a carrier of fire and light power. We can imitate the principle of the magic lamp in our human world and use tungsten crystal as the main body." The one on stage now was the human mechanic grand master, Faraceni, who was as famous as Kikui. This idea was approved by many people.
However, someone quickly raised an objection, "The illumination range of the heat generated is too small, and the energy consumption is too huge. To cover the residential area of the Demon Realm, we need tens of thousands of them."
"In terms of heat and light, we can use the mageweath circuit to increase it. This circuit can also greatly reduce the problem of energy consumption." Faraceni drew complex mageweaths on the board. This was his best field. Some of the original circuits were even the result of many years of research. At this critical moment of life and death, he couldn't care less about hiding it.
When many mageweath research masters present saw these circuit diagrams, they couldn't help but marvel.
"Mr. Faraceni's mageweath attainments are amazing, but the Demon Realm is not comparable to the human world. Too much heat and light will be counterproductive. The material must be changed. Moreover, the cost of manufacturing is still high. Even if we use your circuit transformation, only considering the density of the population, we need at least thousands of moons to rise at the same time. "Tetenis' suggestion made Faraceni himself fall into deep thought.
"Actually, we can only use one …" A timid voice sounded.
For a while, the venue was silent. All eyes were focused on the somewhat pretty girl with glasses. This girl was Beluan, the daughter of Turia, the president of the Bloody Empire's Mechanic Association. Her mother was also a mechanic master, Mavinna, who attended the meeting.
"You just said that we will only use one?" Faraceni didn't put on the airs of a grand master, but he asked seriously.
Beluan blushed when she felt everyone's gaze, but she still nodded.
"Please come to the stage." The alchemy world paid attention to those who reached first, so Chen Rui did not hesitate to use the word "please" to Beluan.
Beluan looked at Chen Rui, and she was emboldened. Under the encouraging eyes of her parents and Fenoa not far away, she walked to the stage.
"My idea is to create a light source, then use many reflection points to spread throughout the Demon Realm. In this way, the cost will be greatly reduced, and the durability will also be … "
Chen Rui's eyes lit up. He secretly marveled and showed a look of approval.
"Mirror?" Faraceni, who was below the stage, had already reacted. He showed ecstasy, "That's wonderful!"
Everyone also understood that Beluan's idea was indeed ingenious. She only needed to create a light and heat source, then the objects made of suspended reflective materials in the air could achieve the effect of illumination on a large scale. She could also change the light source to realize the alternation of day and night. She could even create hot light and cold light to adapt to more crops.
"Also, Sir Faraceni's mageweath circuit just now … I think the circuit part can be improved in this way for the third and fifth drawings. The amplification may be better. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me, Sir Faraceni. " Beluan courageously drew two small sketches next to the mageweath circuit diagram drawn by Faraceni.
Faraceni stared at the two sketches closely, and he suddenly shouted, startling Beluan.
"Genius!" Faraceni clenched his fists excitedly, "You are the most outstanding genius in the mageweath field I have ever seen! Are you interested in being my disciple? I'll teach you everything! By the way, who is your original teacher? Even if it is a duel, I want to … "
Faraceni's excitement and enthusiasm made Beluan stunned in place for a while. The lazy voice of the elf grand master, Fenoah, sounded below the stage, "Wait a minute, Faraceni, are you sure you want to duel with me?"
"Sir Fenoah, it turns out …" Faraceni was dumbfounded. Fenoah is an elf grand master who once gave me pointers in alchemy. He is one of the most important mentors on my road to success. I didn't expect this genius Demons girl to be an elf grand master's disciple!
Fenoah smiled and said, "Although Beluan is my student, I'm not very competent as a teacher. Besides, her attainments in mageweath … I don't have much to teach her. If you insist on a duel, I'd better admit defeat. I'll just take it as a competitor. "
Faraceni had already understood Fenoah's meaning, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Under Fenoah's signal, Beluan bowed to Faraceni as a teacher, and the alchemists present applauded.
Beluan's creativity solved the most difficult core problem of the artificial moon. The next problem was the material problem of the main heat source and the mirror image. There was a fierce discussion in the venue again. For a time, all kinds of ideas and wonderful ideas appeared.
Looking at this scene, Chen Rui showed a knowing smile. Two heads are better than Zhuge Liang. Sure enough, brainstorming is the best way to solve the problem. If I'm alone, even if I'm only Heaven-Blessed, it's impossible to have such an effect.
Suddenly, he felt a certain gaze. He turned his head and saw that it was the most dazzling hero of this seminar, Beluan.
She still looked like the girl-next-door. Her eyes under the glasses were calm. Seeing that Chen Rui noticed her gaze, Beluan's face blushed again, but she did not look away. She still looked at him boldly.
Chen Rui clearly felt the emotions in that gaze. It was the same as back then, and he couldn't help but be taken aback. He suddenly realized that she must have known the truth of the past!
In order to find Mountain Seckred and Fertile Yuan Soil, Chen Rui went to the Bloody Empire and worshipped Turia as a mechanic apprentice. Later, he deliberately betrayed his master for the secret of the 4th floor of the library pavilion. At the same time, he also used the name of Fonsaq's disciple to expose the true face of the top mechanic master at that time, Nate. He finally successfully escaped by faking his death, and the distance between him and Beluan was getting farther and farther.
Now, Beluan actually learned that the dead "Richard" was him, so the person who exposed the truth could only be the few people who knew …
Not far away, Master Fonsaq, who saw this scene, turned his head a little guiltily, pretending not to see Chen Rui.
Beluan did not come over to blame Chen Rui or call his other "name", but she just showed a gentle smile from afar.
Then, slowly, she turned her face away.
She still remembered what he said before he left. We … are not from the same world.
She now knew that he was afraid of implicating her and her parents at that time. Later, he went to the Mechanic Association to save her father, "Aguile", which was also him.
However, he didn't know that as a member of the Bloody Empire, she also participated in the previous Battle of the Starlight Fortress. She was a mechanic who was responsible for the maintenance of the fortress's magic crystal cannons and ordnance. Fonsaq was also present.
Just when she was pierced by a bone spur in her chest and was about to collapse, Fonsaq told the truth of the past in order to motivate her. The obsession in her heart finally made her struggle to survive from the line of death.
Mechanic grand master, husband of the 3 empresses, the strongest man in the Demon Realm, the human prince …
They are indeed people from 2 different worlds.
However, as long as I smile at him from afar, the world is in my heart.
