Volume 19 Chapter 167 South America Soaked in Mud

"What is this for?"

Seeing the ball in my hand, the researcher in charge immediately said: "This is the only finished product we have obtained based on our research on Book of Space."

"So, this thing should have space capabilities? How do you use it?"

The researcher in charge took the ball from me and demonstrated it to me while showing it, "Note that this thing needs to be charged with a unit of magic before use to stimulate it, but I am now demonstrating it. In order not to enable it, I will not enter magic anymore, but I must enter magic when using it."

I nodded to show my understanding, and asked, "What?"

"Then you have to pay attention. Look here." The supervisor showed me a point with a point that was obviously different from other places. "This is a button, and there is a symmetrical on the reverse side. After you inject magic, these two points will light up outside... Forget it, I'll just input magic to demonstrate it to you. Anyway, we still have a lot of them." The supervisor injected a little magic first and then showed me the twist. Sure enough, there was a blue aperture around the button, but the button itself was not bright. After seeing it, the supervisor said, "Seeing this aperture means that the space ball has started, so you can't press it randomly. Now, you have two choices. One is that you can press any of the two symmetric buttons and then smash it towards the enemy."

"What then? What will happen?"

The supervisor did not answer directly, but called a researcher to come over as an experimental subject. "President, please pay attention. Now he is facing us. In battle, the enemy is facing you. Then, I will smash the ball towards him, please pay attention." The supervisor said and smashed the ball towards the researcher who acted as an experimental subject. Then, the moment the ball hit the researcher, no sound and light effect appeared, but the researcher suddenly turned around. It was not that he turned himself, but that person suddenly turned his back to us when the ball hit him. After he turned instantly, we heard the clang again.

With a sound, the ball actually fell off the researcher's chest and continued to roll forward as if it was bounced out before being picked up by another researcher. If something hit someone and bounced back, it was nothing strange, but the problem was that the researcher turned his direction inexplicably at the moment of being hit, which means that his back was now facing us. The ball fell from him. If we threw this ball, the ball had to pass through his body to reach him. But now the ball obviously did not pass through his body, but it seemed to be rebounding and continued to roll forward. This effect looked quite strange.

"Can this thing adjust the front and back sides of the target object?" I suddenly reacted and asked in surprise.

The researcher in charge said with a smile: "Strictly speaking, it can only be adjusted by objects that have no fixed connection to the ground. For example, big trees cannot be compared because the roots are inserted in the soil, and there are houses or mountains, etc.."

"Are there any requirements for volume? Is it possible to flip all things or can only flip something within a certain volume?"

"Using the theory of making this thing, you can flip objects of any volume, but the larger the object is, the stronger the energy it needs to flip. This little thing is just an interesting little toy, so it can only be filled with one unit of magic at a time, and the volume of the flipped object cannot exceed 800 cubic meters. As for the mass of this object, this can be ignored. It only calculates whether it can be transferred based on the volume."

Although 800 cubic meters is not very large, it is definitely not small. For some small ships, they can be adjusted forward and backward. At least for individual players, this thing is absolutely enough. After all, creatures with a volume of more than 800 cubic meters can be considered super monsters, and this kind of thing cannot be handled by one or two people. For individual players, when they are most used, it is probably still used to attack other players, so the conversion volume is almost enough. If a normal person's body is completely tight, it is actually less than one cubic cube. Even if some people are big, they will wear armor and three cubic cubes.

"What else can this thing do besides being able to make people turn things around? Didn't you say that there are several different uses?"

"Yes, there are two uses in total. Just pressing the button like this will make people switch back and forth. If both sides are pressed together at the same time, it will be like this." The guy said while pressing the two balls that the researcher had just handed back together. Then I saw him suddenly disappear out of thin air in front of me for a second, and a second later, his whole body suddenly emerged from the spot again.

"Space occlusion?"

"It's different." The researcher in charge explained: "In fact, the principle is very simple. It is to transmit you out the moment you press the button, but set the transmission exit in place, and try to make the transmission process more complicated, so that you will disappear for about one second due to the complex energy conversion during the transmission process. However, because the exit and the inlet actually overlap, the transmission itself does not consume energy. After all, you are not actually transmitted, but only disappears for a second."

After listening to the explanation, I understood the principle of this thing. It is nothing more than letting you hide in the space mezzanine for a second and then come back, but this purpose is widespread. For example, if the enemy shoots an arrow at you, you can press the button the moment you see the other party shoot the arrow, and then you disappear for a second. When you appear again, the arrow should have passed through the position you are standing. Of course, this time is not easy to master. If you press too late, you will be shot. If you press too early, the arrow will just hit you. Anyway, if you don’t master the time well, it will be useless. However, this provides everyone with a choice. Even if you don’t have a good concept of time, you will not lose any loss when you try it. Anyway, you will still be hit without it. With it, there is still a certain chance to avoid it.

After understanding the two uses of this thing, I found that although this little thing has a very simple function, its use is surprisingly large. The function of dropping people in the same direction is very abnormal. Imagine that you are fighting well with someone, suddenly the other party throws a small ball at you, and then you turn around inexplicably without any preparation. You are still stunned. Why is the enemy suddenly giving you a knife from behind when the person is gone, and anyone else will be hit.

"The only technical achievements you have obtained from those two books are, so what about the technical information? Can it be used in the technical systems that our guild already has in the future?" After understanding the technical achievements we have obtained this time, I began to care about the help of those technical information to other technical systems of our guild.

In fact, this is the technology. Often, a finished equipment requires hundreds or even tens of thousands of technologies. There is no feeling when there is too little technology at the beginning. In the later stage, almost every time you make a breakthrough in a basic technology, almost all the equipment in the guild can undergo a major replacement. Although there are not many technologies produced from the Book of Space and the Book of Energy, I believe it is enough for our guild to undergo a large-scale replacement.

Sure enough, when he heard my question, the researcher in charge immediately nodded and said, "Yes, the new products we have created are actually just auxiliary inventions. What is really powerful is to make up for the original technical system. For example, this space conversion ball is similar to a toy for players, but it is different when used in turret technology."

"You mean instant aiming technology?" My mind was not stupid at all, so when the researcher in charge mentioned the turret and space conversion ball, I immediately thought of instant aiming technology.

A cannon, especially a large caliber heavy cannon, always takes time to turn. However, what if the technology on this space conversion ball can be used to adjust the direction of the cannon? Then the cannon can point the muzzle in any direction in an instant, and if the automatic aiming system and this space conversion device can be combined to operate automatically, it is equivalent to creating an automatic aiming system, and it also comes with a locking function.

The researcher in charge said: "In fact, in addition to the automatic aiming of the turret, there are many things that can be applied. Technology such as changing the power pipes inside the warship into magic wires, and compressed energy shields in the armor can all be improved to a certain extent. However, it is necessary to study how to upgrade them slowly. Anyway, we cannot transform all the equipment in an instant. This can be designed and replaced."

I nodded and said, "Just report these things to the Rose Interior Director or Vice President Hongyue, and discuss them specifically. How many space conversion balls do you have? Give me a few fun first. By the way, I saw that you used the second function after the first experiment. Can it be reused?"

"Of course, as long as the sphere is not damaged, remember to charge it before using it next time."

"I understand. Okay, give me a few. I'll have to do a few more troublesome tasks later. This thing should be useful."

After taking a whole box of space conversion balls from the institute, I left and returned to Aisinger first, and then took out the last two guide crystal balls left on my body. One of these two crystal balls pointed to the tree of nature, that is, the super world tree in South America, and the other one pointed to the tree of souls that I don’t know where. After thinking about it, I think I should do the task of the tree of nature first. After all, this is better to know the location.

Because I knew the location of the tree of nature in advance, I did not silly start the guide crystal in Aisinger, but used the teleportation array to arrive in South America before starting the guide crystal. Thanks to our guild's original tourism business in South America, we installed a teleportation array here, otherwise if we wanted to cross half of the earth from Aisinger to South America, even at the speed of a bird, it would probably take an hour to fly.

It didn't take much time to get from Aisinger to South America. The problem is that it will be a little troublesome after leaving the teleportation array.

South America is basically a super tropical rainforest, and there are swamps and rivers everywhere. Even some places that look like land do not always be land, but switch back and forth between being submerged and exposed to the water according to the season. This state makes it almost impossible for South America to build any human architecture. Of course, the human architecture I refer to is the kind of rock or steel concrete building. However, although it is not suitable for human architecture, it does not mean that it is not suitable for other species of architecture, such as the swamp creature-specific buildings and elves built by local players in South America.

The buildings of the elves are easier to understand. Anyway, they are all on trees, and whether the ground is flooded or not has nothing to do with the elves. Anyway, the water will not flood the trees. As for swamp buildings, this kind of thing can actually be regarded as a floating building. It actually has no foundation at all, but floats on the water surface by buoyancy. When there is no water, the city lands on the ground, and when there is water, the city will float up by water. Anyway, the city will definitely not be flooded. However, compared with the tree houses of the elves, floating cities are one thing that is, their unstableness.

Although there is no wind and waves in the swamp area, the ground is not flat. When the water recedes, the city still needs to land on uneven ground. If the floating city has an overall structure like an aircraft carrier, then once the city lands, some places will inevitably be pushed up. The torque caused by this high and low undulation is not something ordinary materials can withstand. After all, this is a city not a ship, so the floating city is not a solid whole, but a mesh structure made of a mess of wood interwoven. This mesh structure can allow for a large degree of deformation, so no matter how uneven the ground is, it will not break, because it can deform and disperse pressure with the ground. However, this uneven structure causes the ground buildings of the floating city to be built on soft ground. Affected by the foundation, the buildings naturally cannot be fixed. They can only be mainly one to two floors of low buildings, and some are even just tent-shaped buildings.

Our guild trained the teleportation array in South America is located in such a floating city. However, in order to ensure the stability of this transnational teleportation array, we specially installed a set of gravity resistance devices here. Therefore, this teleportation array is actually not located on the city foundation, but is suspended in the air.

When I came out of the teleportation array, I felt like a vegetable market outside. Because it was a tourist destination, there were a lot of people here, and when there were more people, there were more economic activities. With more small vendors, there were naturally more shouting and bargaining sounds. In the end, the city turned into a huge duck farm, and the noise was deafening.

Looking at the lively crowd, I didn't have the intention to participate, and I was directly sending the teleportation array in a burst of exclamations, and then spread my wings in the air and glided directly to the city gate.

It is said that it is a city gate, but it is actually just an arch woven with rattan. Putting it there means to tell people inside and outside that they will be in the city or outside the city after passing here. As for the defensive function - what defense can you expect the gate woven with rattan to have? Besides, this is just a door frame, not even a door panel, and even if it is made of pure gold, it can't stop anything.

The season I am here is not the same. South America is rainy. It is already very embarrassing today. However, the ground will not change according to the changes in the sky. After leaving the city gate, the slope is knee-deep mud. The crowds passing by either take a mud boat or use a mount to travel, otherwise they can only make themselves like mud monkeys. However, children like this mud battlefield very much. Anyway, there is no need to worry about bacteria, parasites, etc. in the game.

Looking at the terrifying mud outside, I summoned Ye Ying and rode up without hesitation. Even if the dragon armor is fully sealed, I definitely don’t want to go down and play the mud war. As for Ye Ying, he actually likes to clean, but he can fly, so the mud has no effect on him at all.

After I rode Yeying all the way, everyone around me looked at the direction of our disappearance with envy. I won’t say anything about the people who were trekking in the mud. Although those riding mounts had less mud on their bodies, they should not expect that they could have any speed when they were in such a place. If they could move, they would have long legs. If the wild boar in the big pot rice came here, they would probably be buried alive. However, it seems that wild boars like mud swimming, and the possibility of being buried alive is higher. Of course, rich people can move on the mud boat, and that thing is absolutely clean. As long as you don’t jump off the boat, you won’t get stuck in the mud, and the speed is much faster than the mount. Well, it is indeed much faster, and it can be almost as fast as a normal person to trot. This is actually considered a high speed in the mud.

Without caring about those envious eyes along the way, I just kept directing Ye Ying to shuttle and fly between the forks. The tree of nature itself is an important tourist attraction, so the flow of people along the way is very high. Ye Ying is too fast to follow the large army to slowly sway, so we can only intersperse back and forth among the crowd. If we hadn't run too fast, the other party would have no time to react, we would probably be protested by at least a few hundred people along the way.

After rushing to the natural tree as fast as possible, I took the World Tree seedlings in my hand early, and the natural tree seemed to have found the seedlings approaching. As soon as we entered the coverage of his canopy, we immediately responded. All the plants that were blocking the road ahead of us were given to both sides, turning the originally curved road into a straight channel leading to the natural tree.

"Zi Ri will grow up so big." We rushed directly to the bottom of the tree of nature along the passage. Before we could enter the dry land area under the tree, we were blocked by a group of people at the end of the plant passage.

"Huh? Isn't this Ghost Hand Lord? Why? *** can't make it to South America to be an indigenous person? I wonder which cannibal tribe you are in now?"

"you……"
