How are you going to transmit the power? We can't possibly move any power anywhere near that amount. We couldn't touch it to our lines without having them all go up in one instantaneous blaze of glory. "We cannot drain such a lake of power through our tiny power pipes of silver." "This man is Stel Felso Theu," said Tho Stan Drel.
"Afthen," replied Stel Felso Theu calmly, "when our friends have smoked, and thought, the Thought will be repaired perfectly, and it will be made invulnerable to that weapon." "I hope so, Stel Felso Theu," smiled Arcot. He was feeling better already. "But do you know what that weapon is, Morey?" "Got some readings on it with the Banderlog's instruments, and I think I do.
Then the terrestrian turned on the power, and gradually increased it until the power authorities were afraid of breakdowns. The accumulators were charged in the city, and the power was being shipped to other cities whose accumulators were not completely charged. But, after giving simple operating instructions to the students, Arcot and Morey went with Stel Felso Theu to his laboratory.
The immense value of these machines was evident, for they would permit Arcot to do many things that would have been impossible without them. The explanation as he gave it to Stel Felso Theu, foretold the uses to which it might be put. "As a weapon," he pointed out, "its most serious fault is that it takes a considerable time to pump in the power needed.
We badly need your help, and as Stel Felso Theu cannot aid us here as much as he can by working with you, I will ask him to do so. I want your knowledge of psycho-mechanical devices to help us. Will you make a machine controlled by mental impulses? I want to see such a system and know how it is done that I may control machines by such a system." "Gladly.
Stel Felso Theu took the backplate of the control cabinet off, and the terrestrians looked at the control with interest. "Got it, Morey?" asked Arcot after a time. "Think so. Want to try making it up? We can do so out of spare junk about the ship, I think. We won't need the tube if what I believe of it is true." Arcot turned to the Talsonian. "We wish you to accompany us to the ship.
"Lord you're right, Zezdon Afthen. I'm going to sleep," called Arcot. And the ship was suddenly far, far away from Thett. Morey took over, and Arcot slept. First Morey straightened the uninjured wall and ironed out the dents. "What, Morey, is the wall of Blackness?" asked Stel Felso Theu. "It's solid matter. A thing that you never saw before.
Other men had arrived, men whom he met in his work. But there were Venerians here, too, in their protective suits, insulated against the cold of Earth, and against its atmosphere. "First, though, gentlemen, allow me to introduce Stel Felso Theu of the planet Talso, one of our allies in this struggle, and Zezdon Afthen and Fentes of Ortol, one of our other allies.
Stel Felso Theu was looking out through the window at a group of men excitedly beckoning. He called the attention of the others to them, and himself went out. Arcot and Wade joined him in a moment. "They tell me that Fellsheh, well to the poleward of here has used four of its eight shots. They are still being attacked," explained the Talsonian gravely.
Even this ship couldn't maintain its walls of energy against that!" declared Stel Felso Theu, awed by the thought. "But that same power would be backing this ship, and helping it to support its wall. We would operate from half a million miles." "We will. If we are destroyed so is Thett, and all the worlds of Thett.
