Chapter 171 Launch
The resonance peak that is hit is like the surface of water where a stone has been thrown in; the amplitude changes drastically, and the phase shifts erratically.
This chaos quickly spread to the surrounding energy structure. The originally stable flow of earth vein fire began to show irregular pulsations and local turbulence. The overall energy output curve became volatile, and even a brief energy dip appeared at certain moments!
The simulator's overall assessment shows:
Under ideal conduction conditions, this harmonic misalignment array has a 78% probability of reducing the energy output stability of the target magma lake by more than 40% within 30 seconds and inducing local energy disturbances lasting three to five minutes.
If you're lucky, hitting a more vulnerable structural node could even trigger a small-scale energy eruption or backflow.
"The results are remarkable!" an energy engineering expert exclaimed excitedly.
"But that's assuming ideal transmission conditions," Duden calmly pointed out.
"We need to ensure that the signal can be transmitted to the launch point of the ruins without loss and synchronously, and then amplified and focused through the loop there, accurately aimed at the target 30 kilometers away."
This requires on-site setup and debugging.
There's only one day left.
After resting for less than four hours, Rowling, along with Duden, Cassandra, and two wizards most skilled in long-range energy transfer, used a teleportation array to reach the closest secret forward outpost to the target area. They were then met by Ella's team and secretly infiltrated the Observer's Remains ruins that served as the launch point.
The wreckage appeared even more dilapidated than in the footage, with most of the structure buried under ash and rubble, revealing only some broken metal skeletons and faintly visible energy loop marks.
Ella and her team had cleared a relatively clean area and set up a simple concealment array.
There's no time for sentimentality.
Everyone immediately began working.
Rowling and Duden were tasked with inspecting and attempting to activate any remaining energy receivers and stabilizing circuits inside the wreckage.
Kassan and the Imperial Blazebrers used their affinity for fire energy to help stabilize the slightly turbulent environmental energy around the wreckage, which was due to its proximity to the Burning Mountains.
The two channeling wizards began setting up the portable, ultra-long-range energy channeling and focusing array they had brought, carefully connecting its output to the main energy pathway interface identified in the wreckage.
The work was intense yet well-organized.
Rolin probed the cold, silent pathways deep within the wreckage with his mental energy, attempting to awaken them with gentle, orderly energy.
Some loops are completely destroyed and unresponsive.
Some are like dormant circuits, which, after receiving appropriate energy stimulation, will light up a faint glow, proving that their basic functions are still intact.
They need to connect these still-working loop segments to form a temporary antenna that can amplify and directionally transmit mistuned harmonic signals.
This is another delicate piece of work that requires a deep understanding of ancient energy loop structures.
Rowling once again played a crucial role. Using the knowledge he gained from studying the Civilization Stone Tablet and numerous Observer Relics, combined with the real-time scanning of the Ring of Insight, he quickly determined the function and connection method of each loop fragment, guiding everyone to carefully bridge them using specially made energy-conducting paste and temporary rune circuits.
When the last crucial connection was completed, the faint engravings on a large, relatively intact metal plate in the center of the wreckage suddenly lit up with a soft, milky-white light!
Although the light was faint and unstable, it did form a preliminary energy convergence and radiation field.
"Basic loop activated successfully! We can connect to the external array now!" Duden whispered excitedly.
The channeling wizard immediately aligned the output of the focusing array with the energy radiation focal point of the luminous metal plate and performed the final coupling adjustment.
As darkness fell, the cold wind of the Ash Plains at night carried tiny energy ice crystals, stinging one's cheeks.
But nobody paid attention to that; everyone was focused on the debugging process.
Finally, before nightfall, the coupling debugging was completed.
The channeling wizard made a "ready" gesture.
Luo Lin walked to the temporary control terminal, a simplified version of a resonance generator, which was connected to the main control of the laboratory at Santa's headquarters via encrypted communication, receiving and forwarding the harmonic misalignment array model in real time.
He took a deep breath of the cold air to clear his mind, which had become somewhat muddled from continuous high-intensity work.
Then, put on the specially designed mind-link helmet and place your hands on the control panel.
"Connect to the main controller and download harmonic array data."
"Connection established — Data download in progress — Download complete."
"Activate the local energy circuit and inject basic stable energy," Rolin ordered.
Cassandra and the Blazebringer immediately channeled pure Flame Order energy into the wreckage loop, stabilizing the milky-white light somewhat.
"Activate the conductive focusing array and calibrate the launch direction."
The channeling wizard swiftly manipulated the array, and the crystal at the top began to slowly rotate, aiming at the approximate direction of the target area hidden in the shadows of the mountains thirty kilometers away.
"Finally, check the energy reserves, circuit stability, and signal synchronization."
Duden quickly reported the various parameters.
Everything is ready.
Luo Lin closed his eyes, immersing himself in the control terminal and becoming one with the harmonic misalignment array model that had just been downloaded.
Five precise mismatched harmonics, like five energy keys poised to be unleashed, floated quietly in his consciousness.
"Operation Harmonic, final countdown."
"Ten, nine, eight —"
In the distance, towards the Burning Mountains, an abnormal dark purple halo could be faintly seen—the light from the Ash Ring stronghold's magic array.
"Three, two, one—launch!"
With a thought, Luo Lin activated five mistuned harmonic models simultaneously!
The data stream travels through encrypted communications, control terminals, and transmission arrays before finally being injected into the ancient circuitry of the wreckage!
hum! ! !
The metal plate in the center of the wreckage shone brightly!
The gathered energy, amplified by the ancient circuit and focused by the conduction array, transformed into a pale blue energy wave beam that was almost imperceptible to the naked eye, but clearly visible at the energy level. It mixed five specific frequencies and shot precisely at the target thirty kilometers away, like a silent arrow piercing the night sky!
The moment the launch was completed, the load on the debris loop reached its limit. The light flickered sharply a few times and then quickly dimmed. Tiny sparks even appeared at some of the fragile connections.
The makeshift conductive array also emitted an overloaded hum.
But the signal has already been sent.
Next, we just wait.
As Rowling removed his helmet, he felt a wave of intense exhaustion wash over him, almost causing him to lose his balance. Ella, who was standing next to him, quickly supported him.
Everyone held their breath, staring intently in the direction of the target, while also keeping an eye on the readings of any energy monitoring devices around them.
Time seemed to stretch out.
Every second felt like an eternity.
Ten seconds — Twenty seconds —
In the direction of the target, that dark purple halo seemed to flicker for a moment?
Immediately afterwards, the instrument that had been monitoring the background energy of the earth's veins began to show abnormally violent fluctuations in its readings!
The fluctuation pattern closely matches the precursory signs of energy disturbance predicted in the simulator!
Thirty seconds!
