Chapter 1252 The Speed of Light
"You call this a model?" Zhou Wen looked at the instrument in front of him that looked as big as a tractor and asked An Sheng with a strange look on his face.
"It's a model, yes. It's only one-twenty-fifth the size of the real thing. But because it's used for simulation experiments, the basic theory and functions are similar to the real thing. It's just a little less powerful, and it doesn't have the functions used in actual operation." An Sheng pointed at the instrument and explained, "Although it's a little less powerful, its speed is amazing. Even a Fear-level weapon can't avoid it. If you want to practice, it's perfect."
"How do I operate this thing?" Zhou Wen looked at the instrument that looked like a tractor cockpit and felt a bit troubled.
"Although there is a computer that can set the launch parameters, it is an experimental product after all. To be on the safe side, someone still needs to guard the operating table. However, this thing cannot be seen by others at the moment, so there are only four non-staff members who have the authority to come here. I am the only one who can help you." An Sheng entered the operating table.
Soon, the front end of the instrument, which looked like a tractor head, lit up. In front of it were black crystals in the shape of a fence. If you look closely, you will find that the fences are made up of small hexagonal crystals.
"Master Wen... I'm going to start shooting... Be careful..." An Sheng shouted.
"Come on." Zhou Wen chose a suitable distance to stand and looked at the shining crystal end opposite.
There was no sound, and no signs. One of the hexagonal crystals shot out a beam of light. Unlike the ordinary light skills used by humans, this was the true speed of light.
Bang!
Zhou Wen's chest was hit by the light and his body didn't have time to move.
The power of the beam was not high, and a large amount of it was equivalent to the legendary attack strength, and it couldn't even damage Zhou Wen's armor.
"The speed of light is indeed about the same as that of a disaster-level bullet." Zhou Wen was very satisfied with the beam speed of the model machine.
Moreover, those hexagonal crystals are like gun barrels. Under Ansheng's operation, light beams will be emitted from different crystals. Because it is computer-controlled, Zhou Wen has no way to predict in advance and can only react after the light beams are emitted.
He tried many times in a row, but failed every time. Even if Zhou Wen used the Demon Dragon King Armor and relied on the power of the Fear-level companion pet, he could only see the beam of light shooting out, but it was still too late to dodge.
"The speed of light is simply too fast. At my current speed, let alone dodging it, I can't even block it with my sword, unless the opponent directly shoots the bullet at the Emperor's Sword." Zhou Wen tried again and again, and soon determined that it was impossible to block it with speed. Unless he was promoted to the Fear Level, and then with the assistance of eight Fear Level companion pets, he would be able to react and block the light beam in time.
"Since speed doesn't work, I have to find another way." Zhou Wen thought while trying to block the light beam by reaction.
"Master Wen, relying on human reaction and speed to block the speed of light at this distance is not very feasible. The Governor has tried it, but he couldn't avoid the speed of light attack." An Sheng said.
An Sheng knew very well that this attempt was actually futile. If the speed was not fast enough, it was simply not fast enough. The difference was too great and it could not be achieved by just hard work.
Zhou Wen naturally knew that practice alone was not enough, but after hearing An Sheng's words, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at An Sheng and asked, "Ah Sheng, what did you just say?"
"Master Wen, I didn't attack your speed, but judging from your current speed, it is impossible for you to dodge the speed of light attack." Ah Sheng spoke the truth and did not say any unrealistic flattery just because of his good relationship with Zhou Wen.
"No, you just said that the speed of light cannot be blocked at this distance. In other words, if the distance is far enough, the speed of light can be blocked?" Zhou Wen said.
"Hypothetically, if the distance is far enough and there is a time difference, it should be able to block it. However, this distance number is too large, and it is difficult to create such a long distance. And there is another disadvantage. At such a long distance, you can't see the light before it arrives. By the time you can see the light, it has already arrived, so this is just a hypothesis." An Sheng said.
"Although it's just a hypothesis, it's not impossible. It's still possible to exchange space for time." Zhou Wen muttered to himself.
But as Ansheng said, the speed of light is too fast. Even if it takes only one tenth of a second, the distance it travels is already far enough.
If you want to cover such a long distance in a short time, interstellar teleportation can do it, but in the Venus dimension, there is no such a long distance for Zhou Wen.
However, Zhou Wen is good at spatial power, so maybe he can try using spatial skills to create distance.
Zhou Wen carefully considered the various abilities of Demon God Ji and Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day. Judging from the existing spatial skills, it is impossible to stretch the space.
Zhou Wen had seen Jiu Yue use the ability of space stretching before. Since someone could do it, it meant that there must be such space skills.
"Where can I get a space skill like this?" Zhou Wen told An Sheng his idea.
An Sheng thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if this method will work, but we don't have a dimensional realm that produces this kind of spatial skill here. Even if there are other places, they must be very rare, and at most you can only buy mythical-level skill crystals. No one will definitely sell fear-level ones."
"Mythical level is fine too. Where can I buy it?" Zhou Wen thought that Liuyun was able to practice the Star Stealing Hand to the Fear Level, so he could also give it a try.
"We can only try our luck in the red-light district of the Holy City. Only there is the highest probability of finding it. Even if other families have it, they won't sell it casually." An Sheng said.
Zhou Wen was not unfamiliar with the Red Light Lane in the Holy City. He had been there before. The faceless Buddha in Red Light Lane was his classmate Gudian.
After hearing what An Sheng said, Zhou Wen tried to send a message to Gudian, explaining his idea of buying the Space Skill Crystal.
Not long after, Gudian actually replied to his message: "We have spatial skill crystals, but we don't have the kind you're talking about. Even if we did, no one would sell it."
Zhou Wen was immediately disappointed. Although it was not impossible to create spatial skills by himself, the difficulty of creating them was as difficult as it was for humans to discover the periodic laws of elements. It required chance and continuous research to achieve it, and it was not something that could be achieved by just thinking about it.
Unexpectedly, Gudian sent a second message: "I know a place that can produce this kind of spatial skill crystal. The drop rate is very low. If you don't mind the trouble and are not afraid of death, you can go and give it a try."
"Where?" Zhou Wen was delighted and asked quickly.
"West District, Time Cabin." Gudian replied quickly.
