Chapter 288: Ninth Official Livestream! (3)

That’s it for the unboxing. Before we begin our journey of planetary destruction, let me introduce the product’s functions, effects, and operation methods to everyone.”

After saying so, Chen Yu clicked the middle of the card. Immediately, a virtual projection appeared above the card.

While sliding his finger across the projection, Chen Yu began his introduction.

“It’s actually an old friend’s product. Wonderful. The Oscillating Planet Smasher was produced by the Haqiu Arms Company in 4266. It is mainly used for scientific research, collection of outer planetary resources, and military operations. Note that this is the first time we have received a product from beyond the 40th century! This product has crossed over 2,200 years to reach us! How terrifying!

“The device’s physical body is one meter tall and 55 centimeters wide. There are two spheres located on the bottom end of the object, and each sphere contains concentrated particles called the quantum recoil magnetic field. These particles cannot be reused.

“In other words, this device can only be used to destroy two planets.”

Picking up the Oscillating Planet Smasher, Chen Yu pointed at the two spheres at the bottom, stifling a burst of laughter as he said, “Once they’re exhausted, they cannot be reproduced automatically.

“Meanwhile, the function of these particles is to form anti-gravity through movement, effectively ‘inhibiting’ a portion of the universal gravitation. Yes, inhibiting! Since this device works on a planetary scale, the anti-gravity it generates is at least an order of magnitude higher than ordinary anti-gravity!

“With this, we can roughly guess how this device is going to destroy planets. It is very, very simple. In deep space, most celestial bodies are in constant rotation. If we inhibit a celestial body’s gravitational force for even a short period, under the celestial body’s terrifying centrifugal force, all matter that previously relied on gravity to stay stuck to each other will be sent flying! In turn, this will result in the decomposition of this celestial body.

“Meanwhile, once the effect of the quantum recoil magnetic field disappears and gravity recovers, the universal gravitation will push the separated matter back to the celestial body’s core! This results in a huge collapse that is beyond imagination!

“Finally, the destruction of this celestial body will be completed.”

[Crap…]

[This series of combos is awesome.]

[Awesome!]

[If this is used on a star, wouldn’t it cause a supernova explosion?]

[How terrifying…]

[Earthlings are still the cruelest!]

[Hurry up and test it on Earth!]

[Mercury: I’m not going to rotate anymore.]

[Moon: I’m going to stop rotating as well.]

[Strongly request you try it on Jupiter…]

Thud.

Setting down the planet smasher, Chen Yu waited for the bullet comments to settle down before resuming his narration, “This may be the intelligence of humans in the future. There’s no need to use violent methods such as bombs or black holes to destroy a planet. We can simply remove a planet’s gravity and have it destroy itself using its own centrifugal force.

“Of course, such an operating principle also means that this device will have a significantly weaker effect on slow-rotating celestial bodies. However, it is only weakened. Once a celestial body has its gravitational force suppressed, the gravitational force from the nearest star will still tear it apart.”

The next moment, Chen Yu flipped the card around and showed the virtual projection’s contents to the camera. He then pointed at a set of data and said, “According to the instruction manual’s introduction, in theory, the Oscillating Planet Smasher can destroy celestial bodies with mass up to two Jupiters. However, there will be certain errors during actual operation due to objective and environmental conditions.

“Oh, by the way, the word ‘Oscillating’ in this product’s name is referring to the process of injecting the ‘recoil particles’ through high-frequency vibration. The device doesn’t rely on vibrations alone to destroy a celestial body. That is simply unrealistic. The amount of energy required to accomplish such a feat will be astronomical and won’t be cost-efficient.”

Turning off the virtual projection, Chen Yu stored the card into his pocket. “That’s it for the product’s introduction. Everyone should already have a preliminary understanding of its operating principle. Now, let’s proceed to the next and most important phase—actual operation and performance evaluation!”

After saying so, Chen Yu picked up the Oscillating Planet Smasher and made his way toward the castle complex. He planned to first put on the protective suit before teleporting to Asteroid Gisella using the Interstellar Portal.

“M-Mr. King!”

However, just as Chen Yu was about to exit the Forbidden Forest, four security personnel from the airport suddenly approached him and stopped him in his path.

“Do you need anything?” Chen Yu stopped and inspected the two black men and two white men with a frown. “If you have nothing to say, please get out of the way.”

What he detested the most was having meaningless interruptions during his livestream.

“We do.” One person carefully stepped forward and spoke rapidly, “Mr. King, the allied nations have notified us that using the Oscillating Planet Smasher to destroy Gisella may pose a threat to the inner solar system.”

“Oh?” Chen Yu’s expression grew serious. “Will it cause direct damage to Earth?”

“T-The chances of this happening is small. However, once Gisella’s fragments enter the inner solar system, they will be attracted by Saturn’s and Jupiter’s gravitational force. There is a high chance a collision between them will occur.”

“And what of it?” Waving his hand nonchalantly, Chen Yu continued advancing forward. “I knew the destruction of such a distant asteroid couldn’t affect Earth. If I destroy it now, it can be regarded as solving the disaster human civilization will face 25 years later.”

“B-But…” The leader of the security guards subconsciously reached out with his hand. However, in the end, he did not dare touch Chen Yu and could only watch as the latter walked away.

Meanwhile, when the various nations’ representatives in the Observer Hall saw this scene, they couldn’t help but shake their heads helplessly. Based on their analysis of Chen Yu’s personality portrait, this result was well within their expectations.

“Hello, Headmaster!”

“Headmaster…”

After Chen Yu entered the castle complex, a group of students immediately closed in on him and greeted him.

One short-haired youth even made silly faces at the camera while excitedly waving his hand and saying, “Mom! I’m on TV!”

[Good son.]

[Good son.]

[These are the Academy’s students? How enviable!]

[Cambridge suddenly doesn’t feel as lovely anymore.]

[They get to learn future knowledge and live in a large castle. They really are standing at the pinnacle of life…]

[Huh? Why does that girl with big eyes look like my wife?]

[One of them is a top student from our Third Middle School. I feel so proud.]

“Everyone, disperse.”

After arriving inside the Headmaster’s Tower’s lobby, Chen Yu said to the surrounding students, “Those with classes should head to class. Those without classes should do some self-studying. There’s nothing interesting to see here.”

After saying so, Chen Yu raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Snap!

Boom… Rumble, rumble…

A moving staircase fell from the ceiling, revealing the main hall upstairs.

After waving his hand at the students, Chen Yu strode up the staircase and arrived before the Interstellar Portal. He then called up the virtual interface and established a spatial link to Gisella, which was hundreds of astronomical units away from Earth.

Boom…

The staircase connecting the lobby and main hall closed.

The spatial link’s establishment had also been completed simultaneously.

The next moment, a world of gray and black appeared behind the metal arch…

“I’m going to change into my protective suit first. I’ll be right back. In the meantime, everyone can use this chance to resolve any urgencies. Once we begin the detonation process afterward, you might not get any more opportunities to pee.”

Leaving the floating camera hovering in place, Chen Yu continued moving up the staircase and disappeared into the rotating corner.

Five minutes later, Chen Yu returned to the main hall, fully armed.

“Everything is ready!” Picking up the Oscillating Planet Smasher, Chen Yu pointed at the metal arch and said, “Now, follow my camera and bear witness to the destruction of a celestial body.”

After saying so, Chen Yu moved one foot through the portal’s transparent spatial film.
