Chapter 641
Time passed quickly. Twenty years later.
Su Hao had been in this world for eighty years, nearing a hundred in actual age.
He approached Feng Cheng to inquire about the space anomaly, but the result was still "no abnormality"!
At this moment, Su Hao has already vaguely realized: this disaster, is no longer a small asteroid impact!
Su Hao: "......"
For so many years, I have worked diligently and successfully developed the 'planet virus,' and then you tell me: we don't need to hit planets anymore, let's play a different game.
Isn't this playing with him!
Yes, as early as more than ten years ago, Su Hao's envisioned 'planet virus' was completely successfully developed, updated to version 10.1, and finalized by Su Hao, officially named 'Shattered Star Cube'!
The result of the birth of 'Shattered Star Cube' is: a satellite slightly smaller than the source star in volume, transformed into a particle beam within half a year, shooting into the depths of the universe, completely separating all matter from the original star system.
And the observers at the astronomical observation center, they watched a huge celestial body disappear gradually from their screens like this.
It's like a dream!
It is worth mentioning that Su Hao's 'planet virus' has gone through multiple generations of updates and is no longer a huge ellipsoidal shape, but has become a small cube with a volume only the size of a ping-pong ball!
A small cube, as long as a high-quality source pearl is embedded in the recess, inserted into the planet's core, and then activated. It can devour a whole massive planetary volume within two hours, turning the planet into a large amount of 'source.'
The appearance of this 'Shattered Star Cube' even exceeded Su Hao's initial imagination before designing the 'planet virus.'
Perhaps with continuous technological updates, the size of the 'planet virus' in the future could become even smaller.
However, for Su Hao, as long as the goal is achieved, whether it is bigger or smaller is irrelevant.
What makes Su Hao speechless is that after he finally developed a method to destroy planets, the result is that the catastrophe most likely is not caused by a planet impact.
"Whether it is a planet impact or not, developing a 'planet virus' is ultimately useful, and during my research process, I have gained many derivative products, enough to deal with the vast majority of situations, not only not losing but also somewhat gaining."
No matter what kind of disaster it is, come on! If it can make me break a sweat, then I lose!
...
One day suddenly, Yashan reported to Su Hao, "Wei, the basic components of the current spacecraft have been assembled, the test results show that it runs well, and it is ready for a test flight."
Su Hao exclaimed, "Progress so fast? I remember it was only in the final stage two years ago, and many devices were still not installed."
Yashan explained, "That's right, but the overall structure and power system of the spacecraft have been built, and only various large custom machinery remains to be assembled, along with various collection machinery, detectors, single-person flying spacecraft, etc., are still under construction, but this does not affect the overall operation of the spacecraft.
If it's just a test flight, there should be no problem. Perhaps during the test flight, any deficiencies can be discovered, and further modifications can be made."
This is the advantage of teleportation array technology.
As long as a fixed teleportation array is established on the spacecraft and the source star, it can travel back and forth freely. If one day the spacecraft is deemed unsatisfactory, it can even leave a positioning stone in place and then return the modified spacecraft there when ready, continuing the journey.
Su Hao said, "Then let's have a test flight!"
Yashan has temporarily disbanded all the workers who participated in building the spacecraft, and currently, there are only four people in this small base world.
Of course, at this moment, Feiyuan is not willing to miss out. He is extremely curious about everything related to Su Hao and the other two, wanting to know the lives of these three alien beings.
Perhaps Feiyuan is already planning to write a book titled "My Coexistence Life with Aliens."
Feng Cheng suggested, "Wei, Yashan, should we give the spaceship a name before the test flight?"
Yashan's eyes lit up, "Good idea."
Then everyone looked at Su Hao together.
Su Hao smiled slightly, pondered for a moment and said, "Let's call it 'Genesis'!"
The crowd shook, feeling an indescribable sense of excitement engulfing them. They understood Su Hao's intention, that is: the beginning of an infinite journey through the universe.
What more exciting things are there than this? Even Su Hao himself cannot contain this surge of emotion.
They didn't have any fancy test flight ceremony; the process was very simple: Su Hao transported the base's small world to the farthest known outer space and then began the journey into the depths of the universe.
And this test flight is not only a test flight but also the beginning of a cosmic journey. Once the 'Genesis' spaceship departs, it will not return to the source star. Su Hao flashed and appeared outside the spaceship.
At this moment, a small and stylish spacecraft was parked on a platform at the end of a mountain on a small island, exuding a fierce and authoritative yet aesthetic vibe, with sleek lines and a full sci-fi flavor, perfectly embodying a mechanical sense.
Of course, this was just superficial decoration!
Equipped only with the 'Source Energy Shield System' to resist the impact of cosmic dust and small asteroids, it didn't have any robust functionality inherently; if forced to say so, it's because Su Hao liked it. Su Hao transformed into 'Child of Fate,' donned various protective shields, and placed a hand on the spaceship, connecting to the farthest positioning stone.
'Teleport'!
"Phew~"
The whole person and the spaceship suddenly disappeared. When they reappeared, they were already fifty billion kilometers away from the source star. What is the concept of fifty billion kilometers? Even traveling at the speed of light would take over four hours to reach!
They were on the largest moon of Red Ice Star, which is the farthest planet from the star in this star system, nearly ten thousand times the volume of the source star, incredibly huge.
Red Ice Star originally had two moons, but one was ruthlessly sent away by Su Hao and might now be reduced to particles, freely wandering in space. After arriving on the moon, Su Hao didn't stop there. He flashed consecutively more than twenty times, taking the 'Genesis' away from the moon, far away from the immense Red Ice Star.
At this point, they were basically free from the Red Ice Star's gravity. Su Hao sent a message, "Ok, Yashan, start the test flight!" Yashan initiated the flight with Feng Cheng and Feiyuan assisting as arranged. There wasn't much to it, just pressing the button, assisting in checking if all devices were functioning properly, detecting the surrounding environment, and piloting the direction of travel.
Suddenly, golden light shone from the three large thrusters at the back of the spaceship, exuding a fierce aura. It should have produced a loud roar, but in the vacuum, it was silent.
The golden light gradually intensified, and large flames burst out from the three thrusters, reaching several hundred meters beyond, almost a hundred times longer than the spaceship itself. It was like a flashlight shining into the night sky!
In Su Hao's expectant gaze, the 'Genesis' moved. After a moment, Su Hao said, "Yashan, full power, go at full speed!"
After a brief silence in the group, Yashan sent an emoji of a dog's head: "Boss Wei, um, the thing is, the maximum power output is already on. To accelerate further, we might have to wait a while!"
Su Hao looked at the spaceship moving sluggishly in front of him, and the ferocious thruster at the back of the spaceship, forming a question mark: "???"
Shortly after, Yashan and Feng Cheng opened the spaceship's cabin door and emerged, followed by Feiyuan, already a 'Nascent Soul Realm cultivator,' who wore various protective shields as well. Yashan and Feng Cheng looked at the slow-moving spaceship in front of them, with an embarrassed look on their faces.
Although they knew that spaceship travel in space only required inertia and some propulsion force surpassing various gravitational forces, and with time accumulation, the spaceship's speed would increase, but this was just too slow.
At this speed, it couldn't even surpass the escape velocity of a typical planet during a normal takeoff. Yashan looked at the sluggish spaceship and felt like going forward to push it to alleviate the current awkwardness.
However, he restrained himself and self-reflected in the group chat: "Boss Wei, I did calculate the thrust of the thruster, but for some reason, it's weaker than I anticipated. Only during this test flight did I realize how weak it is! I'll now make some modifications and continue to strengthen it..."
Su Hao shook his head and said: "It's not that the thruster is too weak, it's that the spaceship is too heavy. No matter how much you enhance this conventional technology thruster, it's useless."
Although the spaceship looks only as big as a small house, its mass did not shrink just because it was squeezed into a small world, it still remains that large mass island.
Now upgraded to a metal structure, the mass has increased several times.
How can a general thruster serve as the power for this spaceship? Unless the entire spaceship is equipped with thrusters, it's almost impossible.
Yashan scratched his head: "I have considered this problem, but acting on a trial basis, I just didn't expect it to be so outlandish. Boss Wei, what should we do now?"
Su Hao thought for a moment, suddenly saw the meteor belt around the satellite of the Red Ice Star, his eyes lit up, pointing to that satellite: "I will construct three small worlds inside the three large nozzles, then we will dig out the meteor belt and turn it into a source, stuff it into the three large nozzle small worlds, using the source as the propulsion force for the spaceship.
In this way, the propulsion force should be sufficient."
Yashan and Feng Cheng all looked at the thin ring of stars rotating around the satellite, their eyes gleaming with greed.
Feiyuan came back to his senses from the shock of the Red Ice Star, with a look of confusion on his face: "What did they say? What are they doing? Why are they staring at the Red Ice Satellite like that? Their eyes are so scary."
