The most important indicator for a spaceship is, of course, the power system!
After all, when voyaging through the endless void of space, speed is the most critical elent. How fast and how far you can fly will always be one of the key asures of a spaceship.
However, this area was also the most severely damaged. It seems the crash of the spaceship is related to this...
In fact, Lynn had also found quite a few wreckage parts beneath the lunar bedrock, which he brought back as well. Judging from their shape and size, they didn't quite match the damaged parts of this spaceship.
This likely ant that there was more than one spaceship that had reached the moon, but the rest of the spaceships were thoroughly destroyed; on a microscopic level, they were completely erased, presumably by so kind of divine arts akin to the "Great Decomposition Technique", leaving only this one that appeared to be the main ship intact.
Fortunately, despite the severe damage, Lynn and the others still made quite a few discoveries, such as a set of strong magnetic field binding devices, which still emitted strong energy fluctuations.
"Is this... a nuclear fusion device?" Vittorio's interest was piqued imdiately, as it was the only thing he could understand.
"No, more precisely, it should be an antimatter fusion device!" Lynn explained.
"Antifusion?"
This novel concept left Harrov and the others utterly amazed. Lynn quickly explained that antimatter was like a mirror image of matter, with completely opposite properties but otherwise no different.
If normal elents can undergo fusion reactions, combining to form elents of greater mass and changing places in the periodic table, then antimatter is no exception.
"Doesn't that an it's possible to use antimatter Uranium-235 to execute 'Sky Vaulting'?" Anthony excitedly suggested.
"Of course, no problem!" Lynn nodded, then continued. "But that doesn't make much sense. The power of a reversed 'Sky Vaulting' is certainly strong, but it is far weaker than the energy produced by the direct annihilation of matter and antimatter!"
This device was probably used to create larger mass antimatter elents, just as they could combine isotopes of hydrogen, deuterium, and tritium into helium in a regular fusion furnace, and then fuse helium into carbon.
After all, it isn't easy to directly capture or create heavier antimatter, which is why Lynn used antihydrogen elents or even antielectrons in his battle with the Lord of the Dead Spirits.
He guessed there should have been a regular hydrogen fusion reactor here too, which would continuously generate enormous energy for the spaceship's propulsion by utilising the matter-antimatter annihilation effect while synthesizing larger mass elents.
"Truly an unimaginable masterpiece..." After listening to Lynn's explanation, Vittorio couldn't help but express his admiration.
A fusion furnace entirely composed of antimatter, he couldn't even picture what that would look like.
Maybe it could be called the Anti-Sun Furnace?
What would it look like if this collided with the real Sun?
Thinking of this, Vittorio shuddered.
Harrov and Anthony were both amazed and apprehensive.
Lynn, on the other hand, was relieved; antimatter may be powerful, but it was still within his understanding, which was good news for him. This proved that the technological gap between them wasn't as huge as he had anticipated.
In his previous life, the Federation had also been developing an antimatter fusion reactor, and the database of his intelligent mind contained nurous records, even design drafts.
Assessing just the technology for energy acquisition, the technological level of the extraplanetary civilization they encountered was undoubtedly more advanced, but not to the extent of overwhelming the Federation by several levels.
This was like a civilization still in the midst of its first Industrial Revolution suddenly encountering the Western European powers at the end of World War I. The technological gap was certainly large, yet there was hope to catch up.
If the other side used quantum tides or dark matter and dark energy as their driving energy sources, then they would have no choice but to surrender.
As Lynn pondered, Aurora's voice suddenly ca through.
"Co over here and take a look!"
The people present imdiately turned their heads to look, where Aurora stood in front of a damaged device, speaking in confusion.
Within the device was an energy ball that was rotating continuously, flashing red light.
"Could this thing still be operating?" Anthony asked in surprise. Everything they had seen since entering the spaceship seed to have lost its energy supply, either damaged or dormant, so discovering a device that was still operating was naturally astonishing.
After carefully observing for a mont, Lynn reached out, placed his hand on the device, and probed it for several minutes. Then, suddenly he took action, and a strong wave of magical power imdiately erupted within the spaceship.
Harrov and the others looked at Lynn, both shocked and puzzled, as the red light inside the device began to tremble violently. About five seconds later, it flashed brightly and then completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
In Lynn's hand now appeared an ethereal bottle, within which a red point of light was constantly spinning around.

"Is there a new discovery? And what is this?" Vittorio asked anxiously.
"This is probably a quantum communication device!" Lynn said with a grave expression.
Quantum communication refers to the transfer of information using quantum superposition and entanglent effects. Since it involves high-dinsional linkages, it can even transmit ssages faster than the speed of light, making it a rather convenient ans of communication across cosmic distances.
Just in that instant, Lynn also used this high-dinsional contact to probe the other party's location.
"There are many locations I've detected. The nearest point is about tens of light-years away..." Lynn said pensively. The sensation was very vague and there could be so delay or error.
Upon hearing this, Harrov and the others let out a sigh of relief. Tens of light years was incredibly distant. It would take decades even at the speed of light...
This ant they still had plenty of ti.
However, the next mont, Lynn continued, "They are approaching at a very high speed... We cannot rule out the possibility that the other side has the ability to traverse space, just like a Space-Ti Gate."
Harrov and the others, who had just relaxed, tensed up again, speechlessly looking at Lynn. It would have been better if he had started with the worst-case scenario.
"Regardless, we must quickly create our own light speed, or even faster-than-light spacecraft!" Lynn declared decisively.
...
In the bold proclamations of Lynn, over the following months, all the high-ranking alchemists of the council devoted themselves to researching the disc-shaped spacecraft.
Thanks to the power and wonder of magic, even though the technology of the other civilization was far superior to theirs, they could still glean a lot of useful things through the Material Decompilation Skill.
Almost every few days brought so new discovery.
New elents, new materials, new technologies—each discovery was thrilling enough to earn a Morning Star or even a Silver Moon dal!
Lynn also gave everyone a crash course in quantum chanics. Whether they could learn it or understand any of it, he first infused them with Divine Arts.
This act was akin to forcing the saplings to grow, causing Rafael and the other grand wizards headaches, but it was sowhat useful.
Moreover, their primary goal was not to build an interstellar warship from scratch but to modify this still-intact spaceship based on what they had, thereby accumulating so experience first.
After all, the ship was mostly intact with its weapons and various technologies readily available, comparable to the combat strength of a god.
If they could create a hundred such space vessels, they would possess the capital to wage a full-scale war against the main world!
However, because the power and energy areas were severely damaged, figuring out how to make this heavy craft weighing millions of tons fly, and even reach the required speed for cosmic travel, beca the most headache-inducing problem for Harrov and the others.
"Why don't we use electromagnetic propulsion?" In the research institute of the Land of Death, Anthony suggested to the pondering alchemists.
Accelerating the internal conductor through an electromagnetic field is a very common speeding thod, but it has great potential!
For example, the high-speed particle collider Lynn created could accelerate protons to one-fifth of the speed of light, and that wasn't even its limit. As long as there was sufficient energy, it could almost indefinitely approach the speed of light!
"But how much energy would that consu?" A grand wizard furrowed his brow. They could accelerate protons to an incredible limit because of their very small mass. According to Lynn's formula for relative mass and speed, the amount would be astronomical.
"We can completely use the planet's own magnetic field to provide the power!" Anthony explained again. The thod Lynn used against the Death Lord had given him many ideas. They could use the planet as a magnet, set up a super strong magnetic field, and let the ship continuously speed up by orbiting the planet,
The principle was similar to that of a particle collider, only the magnet and conductor were expanded by more than a billion tis!
"This idea isn't bad!" Harrov nodded thoughtfully, and imdiately discussed the possibility of a planetary accelerator with Aurora, Vittorio, and a dozen other grand wizards who were experts in electromagnetism.
Dennis even proposed a new concept: using the energy wave generated from antimatter explosions as propulsion!
At these words, all the wizards in the room broke out in a cold sweat. Dennis's idea was not just wildly imaginative but could be described as crazy. Yet, they had to admit its feasibility—if they could find a material that could withstand an antimatter explosion...
"In any case, we can start by trying with nuclear explosions!" Dennis said excitedly, ready to embark on a major undertaking, then turned to seek approval from Lynn, who now should be called the Magic God, seated in the main chair.
Yet, Lynn paid no attention to their discussions and was engrossed in drafting a diagram on a piece of paper, frowning in thought from ti to ti.
About three minutes later, Lynn suddenly stopped his handiwork. With a clap of his hands, he drew everyone's attention and spoke succinctly.
"In fact, regarding the propulsion system of the spaceship, I've already got so ideas..."
"I call it the Curvature Engine!"
