I have a space station

The Maya High Priest was greatly relieved to see that Dongfang Chen was so knowledgeable about Modo's troop deployments.

The biggest difficulty in attacking Modo wasn't their advanced technology, but the unknown.

Now that they had lost this advantage, failure was only a matter of time.

The joint fleet of Egula and Maya had a total of 50 warships, with Maya contributing 30 and Egula 20.

This size was more than enough to hold back Modo's western fleet.

Okkhyo Southern Route Fleet.

"General Isidro, enemy warships have appeared behind us, and our retreat has been cut off!" a subordinate reported.

"Don't worry, there are only 5 of them, we can easily deal with them," Isidro said dismissively.

"General Isidro, enemy warships have also appeared in front of us, also 5 in number," another subordinate reported.

"Open fire immediately and destroy them!" Isidro ordered.

"Yes!"

The Okkhyo Southern Route Fleet currently had 17 warships, each equipped with a high-powered electromagnetic cannon. These 17 cannons firing at full power were incredibly formidable.

However, the shells fired did not achieve the expected results.

Because all of these shells missed.

"What's going on?" Isidro asked, very surprised.

"General, they can alter the trajectory of the shells, we can't hit them," the subordinate reported.

"Impossible! The shells are so fast, how can they change trajectory at such a short distance?" Isidro didn't believe it at all.

In reality, the trajectory of the shells hadn't changed, but space itself was distorted.

Modo's warships could cause slight distortions in the surrounding space. The shells appeared to be moving forward in a straight line, but like passing through a lens, their trajectory was deformed.

"Space lens?" Dongfang Chen, who had been watching the battle, couldn't help but be surprised at the scene before him.

The knowledge stored in his neural implant gave him a general understanding of humanity's past technological levels.

The strange properties displayed by Modo's warships were very similar to the principle of a space lens. As far as Dongfang Chen knew, this technology was developed by the former SAmerica.

The so-called space lens technology refers to the formation of a distorted space through technical means. Generally, this distorted space is in the shape of a standard sphere.

In full power mode, the distorted space formed by the space lens is completely invisible. This is because light is also distorted when passing through the lens, and the human brain cannot distinguish this distortion.

This is somewhat similar to the effect of a gravitational field distorting space. You can see the sun before it rises above the horizon because the light bends slightly as it enters the Earth's force field.

However, it should be noted that the space lens is not achieved by relying on a gravitational field, but rather resembles a spatial bubble.

Of course, for an object within the lens to be completely invisible, it can only be achieved at full power. If the power is insufficient, the light will not be completely distorted, so the object within the lens can still be seen.

However, in this state, some low-mass, slow-moving objects will still be distorted when passing through the lens.

Suppose you are standing in front of a non-full power lens, you can indeed see its existence, but you cannot touch it. What you see is that your hand is slightly deformed when approaching the space lens, as if being squeezed outward. But this is just seeing the squeezing, in reality, your hand doesn't feel anything and doesn't touch anything.

"That's right, it's a space lens, but it's not operating at full power," Mengka confirmed.

For a space lens to operate at full power, it requires very high instantaneous energy. Moreover, it cannot be high energy that has been accumulated, it must be supported by an energy core with high energy density.

And Dongfang Chen knew that the only thing that could achieve this was vibration crystal.

So the reason Modo's warships weren't operating the space lens at full power must be because they lacked a higher density energy core.

However, there were still a few questions here:

1. It is unknown whether Modo has mastered the complete space lens technology.

2. Could Modo already know about the existence of vibration crystal? Preliminary judgment suggests a high probability.

3. Why would Modo have mastered the technology of the former SAmerica?

These questions cannot be answered now, so they can only be put aside for now.

No wonder Modo was so fearless, with space lens technology, traditional shells could never hit. Even if they just stood there as a target, you wouldn't be able to hit them.

However, they couldn't fully activate the space lens, and light could pass through. This meant that they couldn't defend against laser weapon attacks.

"Mr. Dongfang, what is this space lens you're talking about?" Techas asked.

He had also heard Dongfang Chen and Mengka's conversation.

"This technology is very powerful, in full power mode, it can completely become invisible from 3D space. Existing detection methods and attack methods are all ineffective against it. ..." Dongfang Chen roughly introduced the principle of the space lens.
