Chapter 312: A Beam of Light Shooting into Outer Space
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation I Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Red Lotus, calculate the explosion time and power.”
Tang Rui urgently spoke to Red Lotus.
“Master, the estimated explosion time is in 7 minutes and 23 seconds. The explosion power is sufficient to cause movement of the Pacific Plate, leading to widespread eruptions across the entire Pacific Ring of Fire.”
“Red Lotus, can we control the explosion within a certain range by fully enhancing the magnetic field strength to form a constraint?”
“Based on calculations, a magnetic field strength of 120 Teslas is required to contain the explosion. Currently, there is insufficient energy to achieve this.”
“How much energy is needed? How many nuclear fusion reactors would it take?”
“It is estimated that the full functionality of 113 nuclear fusion reactors is needed to increase the Earth’s magnetic field strength in that sea area to 120 Teslas.”
After hearing this, Tang Rui took a deep breath.
“Red Lotus, display the explosion countdown.”
“Understood, Master.”
Watching the countdown now showing only 7 minutes and 12 seconds left, Tang Rui immediately ran out of the command center.
“Red Lotus, send the parts for the Earth’s magnetic field energy conversion device that we designed earlier to the laboratory.”
Tang Rui spoke while running.
“Right away, Master.”
Arriving at the laboratory, Tang Rui picked up the parts and started assembling them in a very rough manner.
In less than 2 minutes and 40 seconds, a shabby device appeared before Tang Rui’s eyes, its welding joints seemingly on the verge of breaking at any moment.
[Item: Poorly-made Electrothermal Energy Conversion Collection Device]
[Experience: 0/2100]
[Origin Points: 462.31]
Upon seeing the system panel, Tang Rui immediately clicked to enhance the device, upgrading it to the third stage without hesitation.
Whoosh!
A golden light flashed.
The device in front of him had transformed dramatically, from an ugly-looking machine to a sci-fi device with a three-meter diameter and a large disc on top, resembling a mushroom.
[Item: Stellar Energy Conversion Collection Device]
[Experience: 0/50000]
[Enhancement: Photothermal Radiation Magnetic Field Collection Conversion System]
[Attributes: Energy Absorption Efficiency Increased by 180%, Magnetic Field Coverage Area Increased by 160%, Instantaneous Thermoelectric Energy Conversion Efficiency Increased by 120%]
[Origin Points: 21.31]
Tere were only 4 minutes and 27 seconds left until the explosion.
“Red Lotus, how long will it take to send this device to the top using robots at the fastest speed?” Tang Rui asked anxiously.
“Master, Red Lotus needs only 28 seconds.”
A large cargo transport robot equipped with an SEG unit grabbed the device and flew out of the base.
Tang Rui ran back to the Blue Army Command Center.
Upon his return, the two others looked at him, wanting to know his solution.
“Don’t worry, it’s handled,” Tang Rui nodded with a smile.
Although the process was a bit stimulating, there were no accidents, and everything went smoothly.
However, seeing the system panel showing only just over 20 origin points left, Tang Rui broke into a cold sweat.
Next, he needed to increase his reserve of origin points to over 1000, otherwise, he wouldn’t feel secure.
Settling back into his chair, Tang Rui watched the situation unfold on the projection screen.
Countless lightning strikes continued to bombard the sea surface, the dazzling light illuminating the entire sky.
More and more bubbles were forming at the seabed.
The entire sea area seemed to be boiling.
The electric lights penetrating deep into the sea were enveloping three submarines, flashing around their hulls like frying dough sticks.
But such electric lights would not trigger the mushroom bomb.
At most, they would cause the submarines’ equipment to fail, leading to a continuous rise in the temperature of the small nuclear reactors.
But compared to the mushroom bomb, this was insignificant.
“Master, the device has been deployed.”
“Start the device.”
“Okay, Master.”
After the device was activated, a small window appeared beside Tang Rui, displaying the operational status of the device.
Tang Rui tapped on the buttons on the screen.
He maximized the operating efficiency of the device.
Hum!
With the device operating at full capacity, the solar wind, which constantly impacts Earth’s magnetic field from outer space, was converted into electrical energy at this special moment.
This vast electrical energy was then transformed into electromagnetic waves and integrated into the magnetic field, utilized by the planetary magnetic field control device.
Then, using this enormous energy source, the planetary magnetic field control device began to strengthen the magnetic field strength around the sea area of the Korean Peninsula.
Due to the significant increase in the magnetic field strength, the power of the lightning storm intensified, spreading faster towards the seabed.
The countdown on the big screen started decreasing rapidly.
The original countdown of over 3 minutes was now only 53 seconds, but Tang Rui was not worried at this point.
The energy conversion device was incredibly powerful.
It could directly absorb and convert the solar wind’s thermal radiation energy through the Earth’s magnetic field.
How much energy did the solar wind impact the Earth within a day?
1.49E22 joules.
What’s the power output?
1.73E17 watts.
In front of this number, what controlled nuclear fusion is just trash.
Of course.
The device was not powerful enough to convert all energy.
Even if it could, it shouldn’t do so.
Because the Earth still needs sunlight and heat.
The device absorbed those that were reflected, those that collided with and dissipated in the Earth’s magnetic field.
It did not affect the atmospheric circulation, Earth’s illumination, and the natural cycle of the biosphere.
The three of them watched the projection screen in silence.
Soon, the countdown was down to just ten seconds.
At this moment, at the bottom of the sea, thin streaks of electricity started appearing, although very faint.
But when countless faint electric lights converged together.
Triggering the energy at the bottom of the sea.
Boom!
Sound vanished.
The seawater disappeared.
A miraculous sight occurred.
A super lightning bolt emerged, connecting from 1,724 meters below the sea to 6,300 meters above in the sky.
Purple lightning burst from the seabed.
It penetrated through rock layers, the ocean, and the sky, unleashing unparalleled power.
The lightning vaporized all the water it passed through, and the air ionized at that moment.
The sea surface within dozens of kilometers was covered with electric lights.
The surrounding seawater boiled like never before.
The three submarines were instantly vaporized by the lightning, and the high atomic number elements within them triggered a chain reaction.
At the moment of the chain reaction, a fusion reaction occurred.
Boom!
An even brighter light appeared.
It was as if the sun had fallen into this sea area, illuminating the entire Bohai Bay like daytime.
The energy produced by the power of over 80 million tons began to sweep around.
But when it spread to 17 kilometers away, it hit an invisible wall.
All the energy could not continue to expand outward.
Everything around and below were bound by a strong magnetic field.
The energy trying to dissipate could only rush towards the sky.
Just like that, a column of light shooting into outer space appeared..
