The moment the Crimson Moon appeared in this world, everyone in Minas Elenas also observed this miraculous phenomenon.
The last ray of the setting sun disappeared behind the mountains, and the sky was shrouded in a chaotic shadow. The crimson moon appeared out of thin air, accompanied by the ringing of the bell. At first, Hilda thought that the ringing of the bell came from a bell tower in Minas Elenas, but she soon realized that the ringing of the bell came from the depths of her mind. This was an extremely powerful mental projection. Everyone who looked at the moonlight could hear the mysterious and distant ringing of the bell. The sound seemed to come from ancient times, across endless space and time, and was directly reflected in everyone's mind.
Everything in Minas Elenas was stained with a faint blood-red hue. It was the moonlight licking the world. The ubiquitous blood-red moonlight ignored all obstructions and directly appeared on every surface within the range of the crimson moon, giving everything a strange hue. Even the stupidest person could tell that the 'moon' hanging high in the sky was definitely not a natural phenomenon based on such a phenomenon that defied common sense of optics.
The moment the crimson moonlight appeared, everyone in the ritual hall tensed up. The "emergency stop device" in Lily's hand, which was the giant alloy X8 sword, was raised slightly. Nangong Sanba stretched out his hand as if he was touching the moonlight falling from the sky.
"The moonlight is not harmful!"
Blood-red moonlight permeated between heaven and earth. However, those who bathed in it felt no direct negative effects apart from a considerable psychological pressure. The various warning and detection spell formations that had been set up on the outside of the Mage Tower in advance also quickly completed their preliminary analysis of the moonlight, and finally confirmed that this unnatural light did not carry any destructive power.
Vivian had successfully controlled the power of the Crimson Moon and precisely filtered out the destructive power in the moonlight.
Although she was still maintaining the summoning ritual, the pressure on Vivian was greatly reduced after the arrival of the Crimson Moon. She opened her eyes slightly and looked around with a smile. "It's not difficult to control. It seems that I'm much stronger after retrieving the power of the Malevolence. Lily, can you put that thing down first?"
The husky maiden stuck out her tongue and put the giant alloy X9 sword at her feet, but her hand was still on the hilt. She could not relax until the ritual was over. Who knew what would happen at the critical moment? That was how it was on TV.
At the control circle in the corner of the hall, the Aerymian royal mages finally recovered from the shock of the arrival of the Crimson Moon. They looked in awe at the "artificial celestial body" hanging high in the sky and could not help but speculate how terrible the ultimate magic, which could be called a natural disaster, would be once it was used to attack. It would be far more powerful than any so-called forbidden spell or strategic weapon. Its power would be comparable to a natural disaster.
After calming down, the mages immediately returned to their work mode and began to check the energy flow of the entire magic tower as well as the signals from the various security facilities in the city. At the same time, they also began to try to analyze the principle of the crimson moon in the sky and the mystery contained in the moonlight. Although it looked like a piece of "what the hell is this black technology" level thing, what if they could find something? Maybe it would be the GDP of Aerym for a decade.
"The first stage is successful. The Crimson Moon has arrived and is in a stable state. Beginning to read various sensor signals.
"The surface of the new Aerym planet has received moonlight. The moonlight energy is stable. No destructive power detected. Confirmed that the moonlight is harmless.
"The illumination range is determined to be within 20 kilometers of Minas Elenion and the surrounding area. No moonlight reaction was detected outside the illumination range. Mobilizing the sensors in the corresponding area, switching to optical observation. Visual signal confirmed. "
A series of messages emerged from the void in front of Hao Ren. The MDT reported the observation records from the surface in a somewhat mechanical synthesized voice, and corresponding real-time images also floated into the air.
After watching the descent of the Crimson Moon from a third-party perspective for the first time, many details that were previously unknown to him appeared.
In a real-time image from the surface, Hao Ren saw a clear dividing line in the air. On one side of the dividing line was full of blood-red moonlight, and on the other side was a clear and normal night sky. There seemed to be an invisible barrier between the two, completely binding the gauze-like moonlight within its illumination range.
Hao Ren looked into space. The Crimson Moon was quietly suspended there, like a crystal ball. It shone directly from space, and in theory, the light it emitted should be visible to the entire eastern hemisphere of Aerym. But in fact, all the moonlight was confined to Minas Elenion and a very small area around it.
After a certain distance away from this area, looking up at the night sky, the Crimson Moon could not be seen at all.
"It seems that the moonlight from space will be focused in a certain area around Vivian," the MDT said. "It is not a laser, but it has similar properties: extremely high directivity, will be constrained into a beam, and carries high energy. Coupled with a variety of transmission methods that do not conform to the laws of physics and exclusive properties, it is obvious that it is not pure 'light.' What it is is still to be analyzed."
"Directivity and constraint …" Hao Ren blinked. "If the earth is a stage, Vivian is simply the heroine standing under the spotlight."
"And she has a dedicated super-huge spotlight — it is simply too huge."
Hao Ren looked up at the red planet in front of the Petrachelys. "Yes, it is half the size of the moon."
The summoned Crimson Moon, the mysterious summoned creature, had its first veil unveiled at a very close distance for the first time. It was no longer a vague legendary thing, but a tangible object that could be touched, observed, measured, and analyzed. From space, Hao Ren could see the surface of the planet was crimson, which was very close to blood, and the clear and neat lines. The latter aroused his greatest curiosity: the lines were completely different from the crustal folds on the surface of ordinary solid planets. They were more uniform in height and more evenly distributed. If one had to describe them, they were closer to the waves on the sea — but they were still.
"The preliminary analysis of this planet is out," the MDT suddenly said after a moment. "It's … strange. All kinds of physical detection radars have sent back echoes, proving that this planet has a physical body, but the gravitational radars did not respond. It seems that it has no gravity …"
Hao Ren frowned. "No gravity? Gravity doesn't work here? Is it because it has no mass? "
"A physical substance that has no mass? Another property that goes against the rules. "The MDT shook its body." This kind of thing will get a zero in the creation exam … But there are all kinds of strange things in the void, no one can say for sure. In fact, there is another guess, that is, this planet is wrapped in a huge gravitational field. It has mass and gravity, but these attributes do not interact with the outside world at all. "
Hao Ren had heard of the gravitational field before. It was a commonly used technology on super-giant starships or space fortresses. For space fortresses that were hundreds or even thousands of kilometers in size, the gravitational force generated by them was a big problem, especially when they worked with other space units. A large number of gravitational sources interfered with each other, causing a catastrophic impact on small spacecraft passing through. Therefore, most super-giant starships and space fortresses were equipped with gravitational isolators, which could block the gravitational disturbances of giant space facilities to the outside world. The phenomenon produced was very similar to the Crimson Moon in front of them.
This kind of technology was a little unthinkable for many races with a lower level of civilization, but after witnessing the K-series sovereign hub of this universe (three huge artificial planetary fortresses), Hao Ren was not surprised at all.
He touched his chin. "There is a gravitational interception generator inside the Crimson Moon … I feel that this possibility is even lower than 'the Crimson Moon has a physical body but no mass'. This thing is a reflection of Vivian's brain. Does she know the principle of the gravitational interception generator? Which summoned creature has this kind of setting? "
"Which summoned creature can be a planet?"
"That's true … Tsk, does the Crimson Moon have destructive radiation?"
"Low level of radioactivity detected, but no harm. Buddy, are we landing? "
"Lower our altitude. Let's go down and have a look."
The Petrachelys changed its angle flexibly in space. The bow of the ship sank and landed on the ominous red surface of the Crimson Moon.
The surface of the planet quickly enlarged in the field of vision, and soon became a continuous' land '. Although the size of the Crimson Moon was only half the size of the moon, it could still be regarded as a standard dwarf planet. Such a planet would not look much different from a normal planet when it was close enough. Hao Ren piloted the Petrachelys quickly across the surface of the planet, and at the same time released the high-precision probes on the spacecraft along the way. A large number of images and data were then transmitted to the imaging system on the bridge.
"Can you see it …" Hao Ren pointed to the obvious details on the screen.
"Yes, it is an ocean, a red ocean."
"But it is still."
"Like a holographic image …" the MDT said faintly.
The surface of the Crimson Moon had a transparent texture, which was an obvious liquid texture. The fine and neat patterns that could be seen in space were the ripples, or waves, on the surface of the liquid. But unlike the normal surface of the sea, everything was still.
It was not frozen, but it was like pressing the pause button abruptly in a state of ripples.
Under this layer of liquid surface, there were large areas of shadow and areas of signal chaos that even the shipboard radar could not distinguish.
These various anomalies mixed together led to the illusion that the surface of the Crimson Moon had a solid shell when viewed from a distance.
No wonder when Lorissa described the Crimson Moon she saw in the illusion, she vowed that she saw a planet with a solid surface.
