Chapter 453: Chapter 391: Reciprocity

Thought of a solution.

Lu Li decided to increase energy consumption by concentrating on forming only five hundred mechas daily.

The other half of the time was to be used to form other things, such as large spaceships.

Large spaceships are necessary because if he couldn’t solve the gamma-ray bursts in thirty-two days, he would rely on these to let his family and friends leave Earth to survive.

Time passed by the second.

Soon it was half past nine in the evening.

Seeing the agreed bedtime with Liu Kexin was approaching.

Lu Li temporarily stopped forming mechas.

Currently, there are one thousand and one mechas in the warehouse.

He checked the energy inside his body. Apart from the usual ten percent consumption, plus twenty percent for the super base and twenty percent for the five hundred mechas, he still had fifty percent energy left.

During this period, “Yang Shen No.1” returned, but he didn’t extract energy for recovery.

Lu Li wanted to wait until he was completely exhausted, then rely on the energy collected by “Yang Shen No.1” to recover himself.

“According to my calculations, the energy consumption to form a large spaceship is about ten percent of my own. I can completely form three or four large spaceships, and then account for the energy spent on traveling, I should be exhausted.”

Lu Li thought, transformed into a stream of light, and swiftly rushed towards the cosmic space.

Over twenty seconds later, he had arrived at the position of eternal daylight at the Moon’s South Pole.

Even though he flew three hundred eighty thousand kilometers, he didn’t feel much consumption.

“Later, after forming four large spaceships, if I fly back to Earth, the energy should be almost consumed.”

Lu Li observed the surroundings, “The super base is for scientific research and storing mechas, it’s more prudent to hide large spaceships on the Moon to prevent others from discovering and thinking I really want to rule Earth, which would cause great panic.”

Thinking, he began to form the structure of the super spaceship according to the previous simulation and deduction.

In the cosmic space, vast drifting particles were disturbed by him, forming a “particle torrent” gathering towards the lunar surface.

In the next moment, the “particle torrent” formed a large spaceship model occupying about thirty thousand square kilometers, shaped like the sky carriers from “The Avengers 1,” “Captain Ugly Country 2,” and “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”

As time went by, it gradually transformed from particle form into a solid entity.

Three minutes later, a gigantic, high-tech filled spaceship appeared before Lu Li.

He checked his energy consumption, “Indeed, as I speculated before, it consumed about ten percent.”

Although this super spaceship is only one-tenth the size of the super base, due to its exceptionally high internal technological content and particularly complex structure, the energy consumed was very significant, actually reaching about half of forming the super base.

Actually, thinking about it, this is normal. A large part of the super base is “rooms,” so the energy concentrated naturally wouldn’t consume too much.

Lu Li looked at the spaceship occupying thirty thousand square kilometers, “The spaceship’s propulsion and weapon systems roughly occupy two-thirds of the space, while the remaining one-third is constructed to be suitable for human living. If calculating by a ten thousand square kilometer living area, this spaceship can carry ten million people away from Earth.”

This is merely theoretical data.

In reality, it’s impossible to achieve this.

Not that the spaceship’s carrying capacity isn’t sufficient.

Calculating based on sixty kilograms per person, ten million people would be only sixty thousand tons.

How could such a gigantic spaceship possibly not be able to carry that load?

Know that a normal airplane has a carrying capacity of fifty or sixty tons.

This spaceship is far larger than ten thousand airplanes, it couldn’t possibly fail to carry ten million people.

Then, why can’t it carry ten million people off Earth?

The reason is simple, it’s easy to take people away, but hard to sustain ten million people.

Lu Li can’t possibly form food and water constantly for ten million people to eat and drink, can he?

“This spaceship has extremely high technological content; due to the existence of a special coating, it can not only resist various cosmic ray damage to electronics but also fly at a speed of five thousand kilometers per second, much faster than the ’Savior’ mecha’s flight speed.”

Lu Li recalled the spaceship structure, “Additionally, the ship is equipped with powerful high-energy laser weapons, and antimatter weapons. Once encountering ’alien’ cosmic battleships in the cosmic space, it can hold its own.”

Hmm, he felt the likelihood of encountering alien battleships is low.

After all, the spaceship’s speed is only five thousand kilometers per second.

To cross a radius of one light year of the solar system would take about sixty years.

Even crossing the Sun’s radius would take sixty years, how could it possibly encounter alien battleships?

“So I want to protect Earth as much as possible, otherwise ’Wandering Earth’ would truly be enacted.”

Lu Li couldn’t help but sigh, “Only instead of the Earth wandering, it’s part of Earth’s humans.”

Moreover, this spaceship contains many high-tech things.

But he was busy consuming energy, didn’t have time to go inside, nor time to think much.

Lu Li cleared his mind of distractions.

Continued to form the second spaceship.

Two or three minutes later, the second spaceship was formed as well.

At this point, Lu Li’s internal energy was only about thirty percent left.

However, he still wasn’t ready to extract the energy collected by “Yangshen” No.1.

Continue gathering energy to construct spaceships!

The third one!

The fourth one!

In eleven or twelve minutes, Lu Li had already finished gathering four spaceships and concealed them on the surface of the Moon.

The massive energy consumption made him feel a sense of exhaustion both physically and mentally.

Lu Li took a deep breath, absorbing the free particles in the universe into his body, annihilating and converting them into energy, “Phew, after the fifth deep evolution, I haven’t consumed energy to this extent before, and now expending so much at once, I really do feel a bit tired.”

Hopefully, with such significant energy expenditure, I can greatly enhance my evolutionary progress.

“It’s time to return to the base.”

Without any hesitation, Lu Li once again transformed into a stream of light, rapidly shooting towards Earth.

…

After more than twenty seconds, Lu Li returned to the super base.

He went to the house next to the control center, which was his “bedchamber”.

Upon entering, Lu Li discovered Liu Kexin was still lying in the resting pod, clearly immersed in “Cyberspace”.

Feeling somewhat helpless, he proactively sent a command to Nuwa, forcing Liu Kexin to exit.

Moments later, the transparent cover of the resting pod opened.

Liu Kexin opened her eyes and self-muttered in confusion, “Didn’t I set it to end at eleven at night? How come I got logged out before ten?”

Even though her voice was small, it couldn’t escape Lu Li’s ears.

Lu Li said with a hint of irritation, “If I didn’t have Nuwa wake you, would you stay immersed in the game forever?”

Hearing this, Liu Kexin turned her head with a smile on her face, “Hubby, are you done with work?”

Lu Li sat down beside a hibernation pod that resembled a bed, “Yeah, what were you playing in ’Cyberspace’?”

This resting pod was truly for resting.

Unlike the resting pod Liu Kexin lay in, which was more like a “game pod” for “Cyberspace”.

Liu Kexin climbed out of the game pod, somewhat excitedly said, “I went to the Cultivation World and became a disciple of a sect called ’Dingyuan Palace’. I just became an outer disciple and was learning cultivation techniques when you woke me up. Hubby, your ’Cyberspace’ is amazing. In the Cultivation World, I couldn’t feel any gaming aspect. It felt like I was truly in a cultivation world, even eating and drinking felt incredibly real.”

Lu Li knew why.

“Cyberspace” is not just a virtual world.

It’s more like a truly existent spiritual world.

Once people lie in the game pod, their mental senses are indistinguishable from reality.

In fact, because the game pod regularly supplements people with nutrients and water and gives appropriate massages to prevent muscle atrophy, people can lie inside for up to seven days without “logging out,” without affecting their health and safety.

Of course, this is the primary form of “Cyberspace”.

In fact, if “Cyberspace” technology becomes more advanced, one could configure it so that if a person dies inside, their real-life “spirit” would perish as well.

Generally speaking, no one would be so bored since “Cyberspace” is usually used for research, socializing, etc., who would seek death inside it?

Lu Li had consumed a lot of energy, and wasn’t much in the mood to talk, “Mmm, take a shower and sleep. I have many things to do tomorrow. Wake up first before going to cultivate again.”

“Okay.” Liu Kexin was very obedient, “I’ll go to the bathroom for a shower first.”

Lu Li pointed to the small room to the east, “The bathroom is over there. It’s high-tech bathing. You just strip off your clothes, lie in the bathing pod, and it’ll clean you thoroughly. Plus, after bathing, it nourishes the skin. Oh, right, no need to dry off; it has a built-in drying function.”

Liu Kexin was amazed, “Is even taking a bath this high-end?”

Lu Li smiled, “Go have your shower; I’m quite tired and want to rest early.”

“Alright then.”

Liu Kexin responded and walked toward the bathroom.

Lu Li glanced at her back, suddenly revealing a sinister smile, “George, Great Emperor, you all want to develop anti-human weapons against me, right? Well then, I’ll find some amusement with you lot right now!”

Despite having little energy left in his body.

It was more than sufficient to have some amusement with George, the Great Emperor, and the others.

He used his extraordinarily powerful perception to lock onto George, the Great Emperor, and 192 others.

Then, Lu Li searched through some horror novels.

Turning the horrifying scenes inside into “illusions” and implementing them in all directions.

This “illusion” was not merely a hallucination; it was something that could envelop one, seemingly real.

Simply put, it was somewhat similar to “Cyberspace,” but where “Cyberspace” was a purely spiritual world, the “illusion” could be fully presented in the real world, making people see, touch, and feel as if it were true.

Lu Li always believed in reciprocity; since George, the Great Emperor, and 192 others dared to develop anti-human weapons, he certainly had to make them suffer a bit.

He had just searched for some of Huaxia’s most terrifying novels, thus the created “illusion” must be incredibly terrifying.

He showed an amused expression, lightly chuckling, “Hope none of you get scared to death!”
