"You call this a model?" Zhou Wen looked at the instrument that was the size of a tractor in front of him and asked An Sheng with a strange expression.
"It's a model indeed. It's only one-twenty-fifth the size of a real machine. However, as it's used for simulation experiments, the basic theory and functions are similar to a real machine. It's just that it's a little weaker and doesn't have the functions used in actual operations." An Sheng pointed at the instrument and introduced it. "Although it's a little weaker, there's nothing to complain about its speed. Even a Terror-grade can't dodge it. If you want to practice, it's perfect."
"How do I operate this thing?" Zhou Wen looked at the instrument that resembled the cockpit of a tractor and felt a headache coming on.
"Although there's a computer that can set the launch parameters, it's still a test product after all. To be safe, someone still needs to guard the control panel. However, this thing can't be seen by others at the moment, so there are only four non-staff who have the authority to come here. I'll have to help you. "An Sheng entered the control panel.
Soon, the front of the instrument that resembled a tractor's nose lit up. In front of it was a black crystal in the shape of a fence. If one looked carefully, they would realize that the fence was formed from tiny hexagonal crystals.
"Young Master Wen … I'm about to begin shooting … You have to be careful …" An Sheng shouted.
"Come on." Zhou Wen chose a suitable distance and stood there as he looked at the shiny crystal opposite him.
Without any sound or warning, one of the hexagonal crystals shot out a beam of light. It was different from the light-elemental skills used by ordinary humans. This was true light speed.
Bam!
Zhou Wen's chest was struck by the light, and his body didn't move in time.
The power of the beam wasn't high. Most of it was equivalent to an attack at the Legendary stage. It couldn't even damage Zhou Wen's armor.
The speed of light is indeed about the same as the speed of that Calamity-grade bullet. Zhou Wen was very satisfied with the model's beam speed.
Furthermore, the hexagonal crystals were equivalent to gun barrels. Under An Sheng's control, beams of light would shoot out from different crystals. As it was controlled by a computer, Zhou Wen couldn't predict it in advance. All he could do was wait for the beam to shoot out before reacting.
He tried many times, but he failed every time. Even if Zhou Wen used the Demon Dragon King Armor and the power of a Terror-grade Companion Beast, he could only see the beam shoot out. He couldn't dodge in time.
'The speed of light is too fast. With my current speed, I won't even be able to block it with my sword, let alone dodge it. Unless the other party directly hits the Emperor Sword with a bullet.' Zhou Wen made repeated attempts and quickly determined that it was impossible to block it with speed. Unless he advanced to the Terror grade and had the help of eight Terror-grade Companion Beasts, he would be able to react and block the beam in time.
Since speed doesn't work, I can only think of another way. As Zhou Wen pondered, he attempted to block the beam with his reaction.
"Young Master Wen, it's not feasible to rely on a human's reaction and speed to block light at such a distance. Overseer has also tried, but he can't dodge light speed attacks," An Sheng said.
"Young Master Wen, I didn't attack your speed, but from your current speed, it's impossible for you to dodge the light speed attack," Ah Sheng said truthfully. Ah Sheng spoke the truth. He didn't say any unrealistic flattery just because he had a good relationship with Zhou Wen.
"No, you just said that it's impossible to block the speed of light at this distance. In other words, if the distance is far enough, I can block the speed of light?" Zhou Wen asked.
"Hypothetically, if the distance is far enough and there's a time difference, I should be able to block it. However, this distance is just too huge. It's very difficult to open such a distance. Furthermore, there's another drawback. At such a distance, you won't be able to see the light before it arrives. When you can see the light, it will have already arrived. Therefore, this is only a hypothesis, "An Sheng said.
"Although it's only a hypothesis, it's not impossible. It's still possible to exchange space for time," Zhou Wen muttered to himself.
However, just as An Sheng had said, the speed of light was too fast. Even a tenth of a second was enough to cover a distance.
To open such a distance in a short period of time, Interstellar Teleportation could do it, but in the Venus dimensional zone, there was no such distance for Zhou Wen.
However, Zhou Wen was good at spatial powers. Perhaps he could give it a try and use spatial skills to open up a distance.
Zhou Wen carefully considered the various abilities of the Godfiend Era and Sky Pilfering Sun. From the looks of the existing spatial skills, it was impossible to stretch space.
Previously, Zhou Wen had seen Jiuyue use the ability to stretch space. Since someone could do it, it meant that there was definitely such a spatial skill.
"Where can I get such a spatial skill?" Zhou Wen told An Sheng his thoughts.
An Sheng thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if this method will work, but we don't have dimensional zones that produce such spatial skills here. Even if there are other places, they will definitely be very rare. Furthermore, we can at most buy a Mythical skill crystal. No one will sell a Terror-grade skill crystal."
"Mythical is fine too. Where can I buy it?" Zhou Wen recalled that Liu Yun could train Star Stealer to the Terror grade, so he could give it a try.
"We can only go to Holy City's Fireworks Alley to try our luck. That's the only place where it's most likely to be found. Even if the other families have it, they won't sell it casually," An Sheng said.
Zhou Wen was no stranger to Holy City's Fireworks Alley. He had been there before. The Faceless Buddha at Fireworks Alley was his classmate, Gu Dian.
Upon hearing An Sheng's words, Zhou Wen attempted to send a message to Gu Dian, explaining his intention to buy spatial skill crystals.
Before long, Gu Dian replied: "There are spatial skill crystals, but there aren't any of the ones you mentioned. Even if there are, no one will sell them."
Zhou Wen was immediately disappointed. Although it wasn't impossible to create spatial skills, the difficulty of creating them was as difficult as humans discovering the periodic laws of the elements in the past. It required coincidences and constant research. It wasn't something that could be done easily.
To his surprise, Gu Dian sent a second message: "I know of a place that can produce such spatial skill crystals. The drop rate is very low. If you don't find it troublesome and aren't afraid of death, you can give it a try."
"Where is it?" Zhou Wen was delighted as he hurriedly asked.
"West District, Time Cabin." Gu Dian quickly replied.
