Chapter 747: Chapter 747

Who knew that after he had just devoured one of the arc pulse string vibration devices, the light screen of the Mechanical Heart lit up unexpectedly after such a long time.

A flash of purple light!

[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +10, Mechanical Devouring Skill Proficiency +3, congratulations on acquiring the Magnetic Storm Shock skill!]

[Magnetic Storm Shock: Release a 6-meter diameter megavolt-level magnetic storm discharge field externally from oneself, skill level and Mechanical Heart energy level directly affect the discharge field range and instantaneous voltage.]

Looking at the light screen, Lin Xian immediately cursed silently, surprised that after such a long time and having devoured so many machines, he finally acquired a new skill again. The source of thɪs content is 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩

Although it’s not the golden Super Characteristic Skill like the Gravitational Lens, this kind of purple skill is also very powerful. If later it undergoes Mechanical Enhancement, it would be unimaginable.

"Magnetic Storm... looks like I finally have a skill with a large range."

Lin Xian’s heart surged with emotions. Besides the Gravitational Lens, his most powerful skill is the Mechanical Energy Cannon, its power is massive, but along the way he always encounters either large-scale Monster Tides or S-Class or Special Level Abnormal Bodies, this move has become very difficult to use. Originally, he was planning to focus on developing his drone swarm combat capability, but unexpectedly, due to one arc pulse string vibration device, he’s gained a new skill.

"Skill level affects range, what’s the meaning of Mechanical Heart energy level? My output power?"

At this point, Lin Xian couldn’t help but recall his AT Force Field Shield, as long as there is enough power, the force field can be amplified, it seems to be a similar idea.

"Eh... if my Superstring Reactor Phase Rainbow Ring successfully upgrades, then wouldn’t it be..."

Thinking of this, Lin Xian realized his Mechanical Heart’s development is becoming more large-scale and high-powered, far stronger than initially just firing the Wind Cannon and driving the engine to escape.

Lin Xian wanted to test this skill, but on second thought, he decided against it, now is not the time to create such a big commotion.

So he restrained a part of his excitement, continued to devour the train carriages of the Ocean, and started manufacturing missile launch racks in car number 21.

[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +30, Mechanical Devouring Skill Proficiency +5]

An empty carriage was completely devoured by Lin Xian.

[Devouring successful, Mechanical Source Point +200, Mechanical Devouring Skill Proficiency +50]

An hour later, the locomotive of the Ocean was completely devoured by Lin Xian.

At 1 a.m., all the empty carriages and locomotives of the Ocean and Parrot had been devoured, only the last two nuclear-powered locomotive groups were left.

Meanwhile, on his mobile terminal, Grace’s path point appeared in the designated area. In the eerie and dark Dark Forest, every kilometer on the ground or trees a small signal repeater appeared, its signal microflash flickering extends over 80 kilometers, while Grace entered an unknown region under everyone’s watch.

At this moment, the signal base point Grace transmitted back flickered again, but when Lin Xian looked, he immediately realized something was off.

Because since the 6th base point, which occurred 30 minutes later, the time of the signal base point Grace transmitted back was becoming slower.

At first, it was only a few seconds, Lin Xian thought perhaps Grace encountered some kind of situation, but the problem is, as a high-intelligence Intelligent Brain, Grace couldn’t make such mistakes, until now, nearly two hours later, the signal base point Grace transmitted back time increased from 5 minutes to 5 minutes and 11 seconds.

"Grace, reconfirm synchronization time, transmit signal base point every 5 minutes."

At this time, Grace’s voice came through his headphones, but her voice was clearly accompanied by a lot of signal noise: [Zzzz... my timer shows, every 5 minutes sending a confirmation signal through the signal repeater to you, this is not wrong.]

"But the distance between your last signal transmission was 5 minutes and 11 seconds?"

[Zzzz... judging from my action radar, my current distance from you is 21,665 meters, theoretically due to my moving speed and the distance between us, the information transmission delay should be 0.067 microseconds.]

"Then how does this situation occur?"

[Zzzz... there are two possible explanations. One is the signal being disrupted by some kind of Abnormal Body; given the global prevalence of the dark invasion affecting radio waves, this possibility is likely. The second possibility is redshift, i.e., gravitational redshift phenomenon, when my position has a higher gravitational potential energy than yours, my current time flow rate will slow down, so when I send a signal every ’5 minutes’ by my own clock, because your region’s time flow is faster, the reception time will be elongated.]

Lin Xian’s face froze hearing this.

Gravitational redshift phenomenon occurs at a 20-kilometer distance?

Doesn’t the formula for gravitational time dilation in the theory of general relativity explode directly?

Hence, he issued a command to Grace immediately: "Don’t include this clearly illogical analysis in your response sequence, it’s just a 20-kilometer distance, and you’re suggesting a gravitational redshift phenomenon, is there a mini black hole in your direction?"

Grace replied: [In the limited information I have acquired, the dark impact information infection has never seen such short-distance high-delay phenomenon, excluding the considerations of Abnormal Body or "Superpower", the analysis based on informatics and physics can be a reference, suggesting you might choose to observe this phenomenon ahead.]

Lin Xian took a deep breath: "Continue moving forward; as long as the signal can link up, I will perform time calibration with you."
