Master of Thermodynamics

Set the time back to 30 seconds ago.

When Arrietty's mother and daughter put on their spacesuits and arrived at Military Pier No. 119 in the space port, they saw an empty parking lot.

The duke was stunned for a moment, with a thought, activated the magic communicator integrated in the aerospace helmet, and said with some confusion:

"Major Derek, you just told me that the'Phoenix' fighter jet was parked at Pier 119, but I didn't see anything..."

"Zizi..."

There were a few mana wave interference noises in the communication channel, and a sonorous voice rang.

"Ariette, please wait a moment!"

As soon as they finished speaking, the mother and daughter immediately discovered that in the berthing area of ​​more than 3,000 square meters in front of them, large waves of water suddenly appeared in the air, interspersed with weird red stripes.

"Mom, what is this?" Althea asked in surprise.

"My dear, I don't know either." Allietty shook her head.

Not only the two of them, but the other soldiers nearby were also stared at it.

After half a breath, the ripples began to subside quickly, and a looming giant red object gradually appeared in everyone's eyes.

When the ripples disappeared completely, a fiery red space fighter emerged from the air out of thin air. Its length was more than 30 meters, the fuselage was smoothly curved, with almost no edges and corners visible on the surface, and its shape was extremely beautiful.

This fighter has a pair of streamlined forward-swept wings with a wingspan of nearly 25 meters, like two flame wings, and four curved tail wings at the tail, which resemble the tail feathers of a bird of flame.

If any player who has been in contact with a popular strategy game on Earth is here, he will definitely recognize that the shape of the fighter plane is a bit similar to a certain fighter plane in the game.

"Wow!"

The little girl only glanced at it, and couldn't help exclaiming, her delicate little face full of affection.

"Is this the "Phoenix" fighter sent by Master Father? It is so beautiful!"

"I think it should be."

Arrietty couldn't help swallowing, her pretty face filled with shock.

Althea took her mother's hand and asked repeatedly:

"Mom, what kind of technology does the'Phoenix' fighter plane use? How could it suddenly emerge from the air? It's incredible..."

However, this question clearly puzzled Arrietty.

In the end, it was the captain of the Phoenix fighter, Major Derek, who rescued the Duchess. He explained on the channel:

"His Royal Highness the Princess, this is the latest'optical stealth technology' developed by the'Optics Research Institute'. Its core principle is a certain way of using the'Condensing Light Demon'... The Phoenix fighter using this technology is a federation. The first stealth fighter."

Althea suddenly realized:

"I see, this is the ability of the illusion system, my father often uses this ability to conjure me!"

Speaking of this, there was obvious joy between my sister-in-law's cool eyebrows.

For her, every illusion trick her father conjured was an extremely fond memory.

Major Derek said with a smile:

"His Royal Highness, you are right!"

Then his voice became respectful:

"Dear Arrietty, Honorable Royal Highness Princess, the 11th Space Fighter Squad of the Space Legion of the Sword of the Empire, come to welcome the two under the order of the Supreme Crown!"

The huge red fighter was shocked, and a "boarding bridge" was slowly lowered on the left side of the plane.

Alietti took her daughter's little hand and quickly floated into the belly of the Phoenix fighter.

The two of them hadn't landed yet, and the line of soldiers who had been waiting in the cabin for a long time paid a standard military salute in an orderly manner.

"Huh!"

A burly officer standing in the front shouted loudly:

"Under the crown of Arrietty, your Royal Highness the eldest princess, on behalf of all the crew members, I welcome both of you to board the plane!"

...

The Arrietty mother and daughter had just fastened their seat belts, and the Phoenix fighter plane had risen from the ground, rushing out of the spaceport like sharp arrows, and sailing into the boundless deep space.

"Dear passengers, after 30 seconds, the main engine will be activated, and the acceleration of the fighter jet will exceed 200 gravitational accelerations... Since the human body cannot withstand such high accelerations, we will activate the'super magic counter force field' in advance. ."

Major Derek's voice passed through the magic communication system to Arrietty's ears.

Although the Duchess does not know much about natural science, she also understands how terrible "200 gravitational accelerations" are. Even an extremely powerful Profoundist who suddenly bears such a huge force, it will be straightforward. die.

"This is a magical equipment specially designed for the'ultra-high gravitational acceleration' environment. It will impose a special magic field so that the equipment and personnel in the aircraft will not be affected by the ultra-high load."

"In addition, when the'Super Magical Counterforce Field' is turned on, it will interfere with the mana field in the human body, causing a little discomfort. Please forgive me for your understanding...but please rest assured, it does not have any harm, under normal circumstances , Within 1-2 minutes, the human body can adapt to it..."

Allietty responded indifferently:

"Major, it's okay... I have to say, the'Super Magic Counter Force Field' sounds very magical, it's a pretty amazing set of rune magic weapons."

"Yes, Mian Xia! If there was no'Super Demon Counterforce Field', there would be no Phoenix fighter."

When the two talked, a strange and gloomy wave of magic energy swept across the entire fighter in an instant.

Althea shook her head:

"Mom, I feel a little dizzy..."

Arrietty squeezed her daughter's delicate little hand, and said with pity:

"My dear, bear with me for a while...your father said that the speed of the Phoenix fighter is as fast as a meteor in space, and we will be able to see him soon!"

This sentence made the little girl's voice happy:

"Well, I'm going to see my father!"

The mother and daughter fell silent, listening to the commands in the channel.

"Connect to the "Vulcan Net"!"

"Yes!"

"Start receiving long-range energy transmission!"

"Yes!"

The two felt that a trembling torrent of energy had descended from the void.

The little girl shrank her body and cuddled her mother tightly.

"The energy index has reached 10%!"

"Start the main engine!"

"Yes!"

"The main engine has been successfully started, and the thrust is steadily rising, currently at 5,000 tons."

"1000 tons..."

"15,000 tons..."

"20,000 tons, it has reached full load!"

"What is the current speed of the fighter?"

"23.3 km/s, and it is increasing at a speed of 2 km/s!"

"well!"

Althea turned her head and glanced out the window unconsciously. She was surprised to find that the huge blue planet in the distance was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This made the clever sister-in-law Liang realize how amazing the speed of this fighter plane he was riding in.

The main engine of the Phoenix fighter has a code name-Wandering Planet. Its principle is the same as that of the "Planetary Engine". It provides the required energy through an ultra-long-range energy transmission system, thereby outputting huge thrust.

This method has a huge advantage. It does not need to carry too much energy, which greatly reduces the cost of use. The disadvantage is that once it leaves the transmission range, the main engine will be invalid and only the auxiliary engine can be used.

"After reaching a speed of 120 kilometers [biquger.info]/sec, reduce the power of the main engine by one and a half!"

"Yes!"

"After the speed reaches 150 km/s, immediately turn off the engine and the'Super Magic Counter Force Field', and slide to the'Valkyrie' asteroid belt by inertia!"

"Yes!"

Althea pointed to the floor suddenly and asked in a low voice:

"Mom, is the Phoenix fighter invented by your father?"

Although she didn't have the slightest understanding of the origin of the Phoenix fighter, Arrietty nodded without hesitation:

"Of course, your father is a great wise man!"

Aunt Liang pursed her lips and squeezed her small fist:

"I will also become a rune magician in the future and help my father!"
