Chapter 372 – Maddening Twelfth Official Livestream! (6)
Creak—
The Type-R Spacecraft suddenly braked and came to a complete halt.
Rubbing his eyes, Chen Yu suppressed the shock in his heart and looked at the line of text displayed on his phone once more.
It’s about to explode?!
Chen Yu’s complexion paled instantly. With stiff fingers, he quickly typed out a message.
[Chen Yu: “Grandma, this joke isn’t funny at all.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Yes, that’s why I’m not joking.”]
Seeing this message, Chen Yu turned to his watch and watched as his ignorant audience was still rambling about in the bullet comment section. After taking a deep breath, he typed another reply.
[Chen Yu: “By ‘soon,’ do you mean it on the universe’s perspective or human perspective?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Of course it is from the universe’s perspective. If it’s based on the human perspective, wouldn’t we be watching our fellow people die right now?”]
Crap, that gave me a scare…
Seeing the marketing staff’s reply, Chen Yu immediately breathed out a sigh of relief.
[Chen Yu: “Can you stop speaking so vaguely in the future? I have the lives of over seven billion humans on my shoulders. I can’t afford the stress.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “You’re the one who’s overthinking things.”]
[Chen Yu: “Be more specific. How long will it be before this thing detonates? If we’re judging by the universe’s perspective, it should be several tens of thousands of years, right?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “There are four months left.”]
[Chen Yu: “Four months, is it? Alright, got it.”]
Chen Yu: “…!!!”
[Chen Yu: “What did you say?! There are only four months left?!”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “That’s right. ❤️”]
[Chen Yu: “You… Do you even understand what ‘from the universe’s perspective’ means?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “From a human’s perspective, isn’t ‘soon’ referring to several minutes later?”]
[Chen Yu: “Is there even a difference between several minutes and several months?!”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Four months is enough for Earth to rotate 120 times.”]
With his back against the camera, Chen Yu’s complexion turned pale as he typed out a message with shaking hands.
[Chen Yu: “Can I return the product now?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Mr. Chen, the cost of transporting such a large object is ten times the manufacturing cost of this galaxy bomb. The Transdimensional Marketing Company cannot afford such an expenditure. We won’t be able to afford it even if we sell our entire company. Hence, we can’t recollect this product. We hope you can understand this.”]
[Chen Yu: “How did you even send it to me in the first place, then?!”]
After Chen Yu sent his message, the other side remained silent for some time before responding.
[Transdimensional Marketing: “It is impossible to explain everything in just one or two sentences. I will send you a product manual now. It contains a lot of detailed history about this galaxy bomb. You will understand everything once you read it.”]
Afterward, a Word file appeared in the conversation window.
After choosing to download it, Chen Yu turned to face the camera. Maintaining a calm expression, he said, “Friends in the livestream rooms, there seems to be a little mistake. This blue supergiant isn’t a stellar battleship, but another type of weapon instead. I still don’t understand the details, but the instruction manual has already been sent over. Please wait a moment. I will give everyone an introduction once I finish reading it.
“Rest assured, everything is under control.”
After saying so, Chen Yu ignored the flood of bullet comments and opened the downloaded Word file. He then began reading every line and word in it.
Naturally, the more he read, the uglier his face became…
…
Simultaneously, inside the Observer Conference Hall on the distant Earth…
Silence enveloped the room as everyone stared at the star displayed on the main screen.
That was a star.
To be precise, it was a blue supergiant whose volume was 456,000 times larger and 55,000 times brighter than the sun!
Meanwhile, this blue supergiant was only ten light-years away from them.
“This…”
Removing his glasses, Korea’s representative sighed and massaged his temples. “This is already beyond the scope of what we can handle.”
“This has been the case since the first livestream,” America’s representative said with dazed eyes. “All of humanity is nothing but a group of ants looking at an elephant. Whether humanity lives or dies will depend on whether this elephant makes a mistake or not.”
“Evidently, as the episode count increases, his livestream’s products will become increasingly dangerous. Mistakes will inevitably occur. It is only a matter of when it will occur.” Standing up from his seat, Japan’s representative said with cold eyes, “We cannot just sit and wait for death to claim us. We cannot ignore this crisis for immediate benefits.”
Everyone present in the room was a smart person. They could naturally understand what the Japanese representative was hinting at. However, they were also smart enough to not voice out their own opinions on the matter.
After all, who knew whether Transdimensional’s UP had secretly installed surveillance equipment within the hall?
Moreover, not everyone shared the same views, factions, organizations, ideas, and awareness. Spouting nonsense here would only invite death to both their own and their respective countries’ doorsteps.
In a sense, the Japanese representative was a courageous person.
After the Japanese representative stopped speaking, silence enveloped the hall for three whole minutes.
After sorting out the words in his mind, the middle-aged team leader grabbed the microphone before him and spoke softly, “There are two sides to every story. Don’t always focus on the bad side. The products Transdimensional Review reveal are indeed becoming increasingly dangerous, but they also bring increasingly greater benefits to humanity. In just one short year, we have managed to gain a new understanding of the universe through his perspective.”
The middle-aged team leader paused slightly to let his words sink into everyone’s minds. After noticing that everyone’s gaze had gathered on himself, he continued, “The universe is a dangerous place. Since we live in this universe, we naturally cannot avoid danger. Transdimensional’s UP has made a good comment during the previous livestream.
“The universe is cruel, and the development of civilization is tortuous. Whether it is for individuals or races, efficiency is the right way to go.
“Although the monthly reviews are dangerous, and they will become even more dangerous in the future, we cannot deny the scientific and technological progress we have made thanks to these reviews. We can potentially travel across the path that other civilizations would normally need thousands or tens of thousands of years to travel in just a few years. From the standpoint of humanity as a whole, these benefits are worth the risks.”
“I agree.” The Russian representative raised his hand. “Not to mention, we don’t have a choice.”
At these words, the room fell silent once more.
However, everyone knew that cracks had also started appearing in the originally stable “special” alliance.
Meanwhile, this scene was also captured by the surveillance cameras in the room…
…
Inside the Type-R Spacecraft ten light-years away…
Chen Yu spent ten minutes reading the entire instruction manual.
When he arrived at the product history recorded on the last few pages, he even thoroughly read the section three times to make sure he did not misread anything. Once he was done reading the pages, though, he finally understood the galaxy bomb’s conception.
He also understood why the Transdimensional Marketing Company had been willing to take a “loss” to send this galaxy bomb to him.
In fact, he also gained a deeper understanding of his relationship with the Transdimensional Marketing Company.
Sure enough, whether it was in the past, present, or future, there were no free lunches in this world.
The only things that existed were interests and conspiracies…
Slowly putting away his phone, Chen Yu remained silent for a long while. Then, even while knowing he had over 800 million people watching him, he still couldn’t help but curse out loud.
“Dammit! This bunch of crazy bastards!”
