Originally, Aincrad was a floating city that got smaller and smaller as it went up.
However, with the efforts of Eight-cloud Ink, the floating city had become a special existence with the same vast space on every level. They had used all kinds of Space Manipulation to achieve this. Therefore, from the outside, the floating city did not seem to have changed much.
It was still hidden in the alternate dimension of the Fantasy Town, and it looked like an illusory shadow. Every day, it rose from the east and set in the west like the sun.
Although the size of every level was the same, the winged people of Synapse still set all their research equipment and various experimental sites at the Town of Beginnings, which was the lowest level.
Minos' personal laboratory was the largest among them.
"So, you want me to use the energy core of the Angel of Omnipotence, the power furnace, to activate part of the child's weapon system?"
Sitting on a chair in the laboratory, Minos looked at Little Star, who was standing beside Eight-cloud Ink.
She had long white hair that reached her hips, slender limbs, and a pair of red eyes on her delicate face.
The military uniform, which was originally filled with the smell of blood, looked cute on the little girl after appropriate tailoring.
Perhaps Little Star thought that she could attack soon, so she was a little restless.
Although she tried her best to maintain her composure and etiquette as a soldier and a subject in front of His Majesty, the little girl's eyes were darting around and constantly looking at the laboratory in front of her.
"Although what you said is a little strange, that's about it."
Eight-cloud Ink patted Little Star's head.
"Previously, due to various reasons, I have basically completely locked the child's combat ability. After all, her body is a planetary fortress. If I don't restrict her …"
"Ah, I understand." Minos nodded. "Leave it to me … Hehe, a planetary fortress? Synapse has the ability to create one, but he has never done so. I didn't expect to see such a … Hmm? That's strange. A planetary fortress can turn into a little girl? Where is her huge body? "
Minos looked at Little Star and asked.
The little girl curled her lips and replied, "Sorry, your authority is not enough. I can't tell you."
"Ha!"
Minos could not help but laugh.
"Interesting. Actually, even if you don't tell me, I can more or less guess — Hyperspace Armory … Although the name might not be accurate, you should be able to understand the meaning behind it."
Little Star was silent. It was obvious that Minos had guessed correctly.
"Alright, alright. Since you can build your own planetary fortresses, there's no need to ask Little Star about it, right?"
"I'm just curious … Hey, come and sit here."
Minos pointed at a metal chair beside him.
Little Star turned to look at Eight-cloud Ink, and only sat on it after the latter nodded.
Then, several needles extended from the armrest and back of the chair and pierced into Xiao Xing's arm.
There was no sign of pain on the little girl's face.
"These things won't make her feel pain, nor will they hurt her body. It's just a check … After all, I don't know the specific structure of the Death Star, so I need to check it first. Although, I don't think a planetary fortress will feel pain because of this."
Minos explained as he controlled the various devices on the control panel at the side.
"Oh? 'What an interesting setting … eh?!' Haha? "
Minos suddenly stared at the structure of the Death Star on the projection screen and laughed.
"What's wrong?"
Eight-cloud Ink asked.
Minos looked at Little Star, who was sitting on the chair, with a strange look. "This girl has a fatal weakness in the design …"
Little Star immediately frowned. If Eight-cloud Ink had allowed it, Minos, who had slandered her, would have been bombarded by a row of floating laser cannons.
"The body of this child has a very small thermal vent hole in the huge reactor at the core of the base. This vent hole leads directly to the surface, and only the laser rays provide limited protection to the port. What was the designer thinking? How could he leave such an obvious hidden danger? "
"You mean … the hole in Little Star's body is a fatal weakness?"
Was it an illusion? Why did this sound so strange?
Eight-cloud Ink finally understood why Minos looked so strange just now …
"Is there a way to solve it?"
"Of course!"
Minos lifted his chin proudly.
"Not only can I solve it, but I can also optimize her overall ability. However, I will need the help of the kappas here. There are some technologies that only they can master."
"Tsk …"
After all, it involved Little Star's body. Eight-cloud Ink turned to look at the little girl. "So, Little Star, what do you think? After all, the body is yours. It is up to you to decide whether to modify or optimize it. "
"As long as I can serve Your Majesty better, I am willing to do anything! I will go through fire and water without hesitation! "
As usual, her answer was full of determination.
"Alright, but we can talk about these things later. Now, let's charge you and activate part of the weapon system."
Minos nodded and agreed. "In fact, even if you want to improve it now, we can't. We have the technology, but we don't have the corresponding equipment. Although Fantasy Town is huge, it is still difficult to build a spaceport big enough to dock the Death Star Fortress. Her body has a diameter of 120 kilometers."
"Then, let's charge this child first. Sorry to trouble you."
"You are too polite."
⑧
It took a total of three days to charge Little Star.
During this process, Little Star closed her eyes and sat motionlessly on the metal chair.
Only the occasional "Beep — —!" Beep —! "sound indicated that she was still operating normally.
In order to charge Little Star with the minimum amount of energy needed to activate the Star Sniper Cannon, Minos used close to 300 power furnaces that provided kinetic energy for the Universal Angel.
"All of her energy source comes from the super-material reaction chamber in the core of her body. Inside, there is a giant fusion reaction with an extremely high release rate. For this reason, she even added a star fuel bottle array outside the reaction chamber. This can only help with combustion."
"Although the power furnace of the Universal Angel can charge this child, it was not designed for this purpose. Therefore, the power output of the power furnace is not enough."
Minos pointed at the huge energy furnace that was temporarily built outside the laboratory.
"This was borrowed from the kappas. They seem to be studying the energy utilization of the Jianmu. They have already made some preliminary results."
"Thanks to this, we can complete the minimum level of weapon activation in three days."
Suddenly, the communication device above the laboratory rang.
"Ah, it seems to have been completed."
In the eyes of Eight-cloud Ink and Minos, numerous heat vents suddenly opened up around the originally tightly guarded laboratory. Then, white steam was released from the vents.
In a moment, almost the entire Town of Beginnings was shrouded in white fog.
After Eight-cloud Ink released a whirlwind to blow away the fog, Little Star, who was covered in white fog, walked out of the laboratory slowly.
"Pa!" She saluted in front of Eight-cloud Ink.
“DS-1orbitalbattlestation! Reporting to His Majesty! "
The little girl's face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
