Constructing-Style Wizard - Chapter 569
Chapter 569: 184. The ancestor of metal
Captain Berkeley of the magic ship is dead.
His death was sudden, occurring just as the dreamscape reached a crucial step, his head exploded and he died.
Berkeley was a Wizard of the Nine Metallic Circles. His limbs, torso, and skull had all been replaced by magic metal, devoid of any blood or flesh, his bones were even composed of magical alloys.
As he exploded, there was no scattering of red and white objects, but instead a large amount of metal shards were splashed.
These shards were flying in all directions, and when they were about to approach the edge of the Dreamscape Magic Circle, they were controlled by an invisible magical power.
The metal shards, as though a pause button had been hit, abruptly froze and they didn’t move at all.
A second later, the power that bound the metal shards disappeared.
The metal shards lost their momentum to fly, falling to the ground with a clatter.
The onlookers around the Dreamscape Magic Circle were not startled by the sudden metal shards, all their attention stayed on the floor mirror.
“Oh … what we saw just now, that disc-shaped metal object, it should be some kind of extraterrestrial spaceship.”
The speaker was Grand Arbitrator Paredes.
As a Wizard of the Tenth Ring, he had already half stepped into the level of a Star Witch. He was the person on the scene who understood the most about extraterrestrial void.
He spoke with a gentle and calm tone.
Influenced by his tone, instead of being surprised when hearing the term “extraterrestrial spaceship”, the onlookers all displayed a calm and composed manner, without any shocks.
Previously, Bella, who was collecting samples with Noland Lee, asked aloud:
“Professor, what is an extraterrestrial spaceship?”
“It is a kind of vehicle that can freely fly in extraterrestrial space. According to its use, force and pilots, it can be divided into many types.”
As Paredes was talking, he stretched out his right hand and touched the surface of the floor mirror with his fingertip.
This magical floor mirror has a dreamscape picture playback function.
With Paredes’s action, the dreamscape picture reappeared on the surface of the mirror, and the scenes in the dream were played back in reverse.
The huge and oppressive aircraft appeared again in the dreamscape.
Paredes’s finger touched the mirror again, and the dreamscape stopped playing, freezing at the moment the aircraft approached the extraterrestrial void gap.
“Do you see this ‘claw grabbing the planet’ pattern?”
Among the crowd around Paredes, except for the wizards from the Deep Sea Branch, Noland Lee, Denise Green, Mabel, the rest were Light Wizards and also students of Paredes.
As soon as he started to speak, the scene of interrogating the criminal immediately turned into a classroom.
“Look closely at the ‘claw’ in the pattern. Who knows what animal or demon’s claw it is?”
Paredes looked at the students on both sides.
Including Bella, the Light Wizards answered actively.
“It looks like the claw of some bird…”
“It could also be a terrestrial bird’s…”
“I think it’s the claw of a humanoid creature, like the bat-winged demon raised by the Night Spirit Cult…”
After listening to the students’ statements, Paredes shook his hand, then drew out his golden magic wand and drew a magic pattern in the air:
“No. Due to the overly simplified design of the claw in the pattern, your estimates have been misdirected. Now, let me describe the three-dimensional model of this claw using magic.”
The tip of the golden magic wand slid in the air, leaving magical lines that glowed with golden and white light.
The three-dimensional model of the claw became more complete, and various details were all presented under Paredes’s ‘Pen’.
The moment the three-dimensional model of the claw was formed, everyone at the scene, whether they were Paredes’s students or not, clearly gasped, their hearts beating faster.
“This is a dragon’s claw!”
“Why does the pattern of the dragon’s claw appear on the extraterrestrial spaceship? And it’s also holding a planet replete with volcanoes, land, and oceans.”
“Do there exist beings like dragons in the extraterrestrial void? Otherwise, why would a dragon claw appear on the pattern of an extraterrestrial spaceship…”
Noland Lee was standing in the crowd, directing Deconstruction at the three-dimensional model drawn by Paredes.
The system feedback showed that what Paredes drew was called the “Magic Model: Claw of a Certain Dragon Species”.
Again, throw a deconstruction at the “claw” pattern in the dreamscape picture, the name given by the system is “Claw Pattern of a Certain Dragon Species”.
By comparing the names of these two patterns, it’s not hard to draw a conclusion that, at the first glance of this “claw” pattern, Paredes, the ancient magical professor identified its origin.
He was very familiar with this pattern and “claw”, that’s why he could restore its three-dimensional model.
Noland Lee nodded thoughtfully to himself.
Thus, it seems that the Wizard’s Enforcement Department was not completely ignorant of Berkeley’s collaborators. They had already found some definite clues.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, let me reveal the answer.”
Paredes folded his hands in front of him and narrated with a steady voice:
“The extraterrestrial void spacecraft that appeared in the dreamscape picture comes from the Deep Space United Mining. This is a star system-level extraterrestrial void force. They see our world as a huge vein. Wizards of the Metal system and his metal magic creations are the most unique minerals in this vein. The disaster 15 years ago, and everything that is happening on this magic ship now, are all caused by the Deep Space United Mining looting metal magic creations. This is a crisis for Metal System wizards. Due to the brutal methods of the Deep Space United Mining, other people involved in the crisis will also face a threat to their lives.”
