" Perry Rhodan 0059 - (51) Return from The Void" - читать интересную книгу автора (Perry Rhodan)Rous was overcome by a sense of outrage as he thought about it. "Just wait!" he growled angrily. "WeтАЩll
get them yet!" Rosita did not answer. Rous drew away from the window and walked over to LloydтАЩs door. When he opened it he was met with a bright glow of light. He was momentarily blinded but then he was able to see that LloydтАЩs room was almost completely filled with a light of even intensity which seemed to emerge from all directions at once. It was just like coming from a darkened room into a sun room with all windows open to a full flood of sunlight from all sides. Rosita also noticed the light as it fell through the doorway. Lloyd was stumbling around somewhere in the flood of brightness and was apparently very busy. "What is that?" cried Rous. "What did you turn on?" Lloyd came to a stop. "For the time being I donтАЩt know myself what it is," he answered in some exasperation. "I was tinkering around a little bitтАж and suddenly I got this blast of light." "Whatwere you tinkering with?" "With the defense screen generator." Rous was speechless. In LloydтАЩs equipment case were all kinds of things for generating lightтАФeven the emergency light he had used to prepare the coded tape report for theDrusus had come from his a substitute light source was the defense screen. Rous and Rosita stepped in and closed the door behind them. Rous sat down on a chair. "Tell me what happened!" he requested of Lloyd. Lloyd put a hand across his forehead as though he had to think it over and recollect. Finally he said, "You recall how we saved that Mirsalese on the Avenue of Kings? Well, I took the generator apart to see if the forcefield could be strengthened under certain circumstances if you connected the apparatus to an auxiliary power source. Of course you know that itтАЩs possible in theory. The only question is, how much energy can the little thing absorb and make use of?" "And what else?" asked Rous. Lloyd shrugged. "I donтАЩt know about the rest of it. I took out a couple of capacitors and completed the circuit without them. Then all of a sudden there was blazing light in here. I have no idea why!" Rous had gotten to his feet. "Show meтАФwhere is that thing?" Lloyd pointed to the table. Rous approached the small generator cautiously. The apparatus was no larger than a palmbook. Lloyd had removed the cover and attempted to work in the complicated inside of the generator with a tiny soldering tweezers. |
