Chapter 133 – Penetrating Through the Layers

Earth, Jinzhou City, inside a certain conference room…

Numerous professionals and scholars, particularly those specializing in astronomy, were currently going crazy inside the room . All of them stared at the screen playing Chen Yu’s livestream with fervent eyes and rapidly recorded every little detail they saw .

The planets that originally required humanity to gradually explore were now having their details exposed centuries ahead . The excitement they felt from receiving this great blessing caused their bodies to shudder uncontrollably…

However, unlike the researchers, the face of the special situation team’s middle-aged team leader sitting at the head of the table lacked any excitement whatsoever . Instead, he silently covered his face as he dazedly watched Chen Yu flying freely on the screen .

“L-Leader . ” After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Li lowered his voice and asked, “Do you still want to contact Chen Yu?”

Lifting his head, the middle-aged team leader quietly stared at Xiao Li for a moment before asking, “What if he maintains a tough attitude?”

“D-didn’t you say we would take an even tougher stance?”

The middle-aged man did not make a response to Xiao Li’s words . After remaining silent for some time, he picked up his satellite phone and walked out of the conference room . He then made a call to his superior .

“Hey, team leader, it’s me .

“I have an idea .

“Let’s plan for the long-term…”

…

Chen Yu’s tour around the solar system was still on-going .

After leaving the hellish Venus, he traveled to Mars .

Mars was a terrestrial planet similar to Earth . The planet’s surface was mostly covered in sand dunes and plagued by sandstorms . There was no water or life on the surface . His visit to Mars had thoroughly shattered humanity’s beautiful illusion of it being Earth’s “sister planet . ”

After Mars, Chen Yu’s next stop was the solar system’s first gas giant—Jupiter .

Unlike previous instances, this time, Chen Yu chose to open the portal outside Jupiter’s atmosphere .

The reason for this was because he heard that Jupiter’s core temperature exceeded 27,000 degrees Celsius…

He feared that if he entered Jupiter’s core layer, the protective suit might not be able to withstand the extreme temperature and pressure, which would, in turn, lead to his death .

Moreover, if he freefell toward Jupiter from space, not only could he test the protective suit’s limits, but he could also experience Jupiter’s environment from all aspects . And in the event he triggered a warning, he could immediately return .

As Chen Yu stepped through the metal arch, the Mars behind him became a thing of the past .

Meanwhile, before him was a magnificent view split between the colors black and yellow .

Black represented the universe .

Yellow represented Jupiter .

While floating in space, Chen Yu found himself unable to tell between up and down, left and right . The experience was a bizarre one .

“After Mars, we’ve come to Jupiter . This place is distant from the sun . How far away exactly, I do not know, but you can see for yourselves . ”

After saying so, Chen Yu turned the camera toward the distant star .

From his location, the sun looked just like a glowing orange .

“At Mercury, the sun is an all-encompassing existence, yet it is insignificantly small at Jupiter . Through this difference, I can intuitively sense just how empty space is .

“Now, let us return our focus to Jupiter . ”

Chen Yu shifted the camera angle once more and relayed Jupiter’s massive and stunning figure to over a million screens on Earth .

This was a world made of golden-yellow clouds .

Under the planet’s high-speed rotation, the flowing clouds stretched to form numerous bands that spanned across the planet .

A small portion of these cloud bands also condensed to form unevenly-distributed spots around the planet . Among these spots, the most conspicuous one was none other than Jupiter’s Great Red Spot!

“We’ll leave the portal here . Next, I will lead everyone on an exploration to a place where humanity had yet to explore—beneath Jupiter’s cloud layer . ”

[UP, don’t take things too far . I don’t want you to die because I love you . ]

[Lololol…]

[Jupiter is 10 times more terrifying than Venus . ]

[If you don’t come back, we’ll leave a bad review for the protective suit’s manufacturer 300 years later . ]

[I’m at the scene . ]

[Jupiter: In a few more decades, there’s going to be a kid who will blow me up with a lighter . (Panic)]

[Under that beautiful appearance hides a wretched heart . ]

“Countdown from 3…

“2 .

“1!”

After giving his audience a buffer time, Chen Yu activated the plasma engine without hesitation and accelerated toward the Great Red Spot!

“I’m riding on the wildest horse and pulling the craziest stunt!

“Battle music! Start!”

Accompanied by Chen Yu’s “charge,” Deja Vu started playing in the livestream’s background .

I’ve just been in this place before .

Higher on the street .

And I know it’s my time to go…

Whizz— Whizz—

The closer Chen Yu got to Jupiter, the more intense the friction sounds became . In no time at all, Chen Yu’s helmet, shoulder plates, and leg armor started glowing in bright red…

Ten minutes later, Chen Yu’s body pierced into the white ammonia clouds like an arrow and continued plunging straight toward the Great Red Spot . He looked just like an ant falling into the Pacific Ocean .

“I can clearly feel Jupiter’s terrifying gravitational pull . It is at least twice as strong as Earth’s . Currently, I am falling at a speed of 7,300 kilometers per hour already . ”

Struggling to turn his head, Chen Yu looked toward the camera next to him and shouted, “I can see flames being produced from the friction between my helmet and the atmosphere . I’m also starting to feel a little uncomfortable . The gravity here is truly terrifying . Everyone, make sure not to casually enter Jupiter . You might just end up dying . ”

[I’m already too tired to retort . Host, don’t get yourself killed . ]

[This youngster, crap . ]

[Jupiter’s gravity field is 2 . 33 times stronger than Earth, yet UP can still speak like normal . I really wonder whether he is an alien . ]

[Since the beginning until now, am I the only one paying attention to the cameraman?!]

“The protective suit has just issued another notification . My surrounding temperature is currently at minus 159 degrees Celsius, whereas the armor parts coming into friction with the atmosphere have reached 2,000 degrees Celsius . I really don’t know how long humans would need to reach into the inner depths of Jupiter without this protective suit . ”

While Chen Yu gave his explanation, he “slowly” penetrated through the ammonia cloud layer and thoroughly entered the Great Red Spot!

The Great Red Spot was a superstorm composed of ammonium hydrosulfide, ammonium sulfide, and a large amount of red phosphate . The Great Red Spot’s diameter exceeded 20,000 kilometers, and one could fit the entire Earth in it!

However, the Great Red Spot also experienced wind speeds as high as 680 kilometers per hour, so it could also instantly tear Earth’s natural environment into tatters…

As Chen Yu moved increasingly deeper into the scary red clouds, his surroundings also grew increasingly darker .

Thus far, Chen Yu maintained a steady flight thanks to the plasma engine’s stabilization . Now, however, he had already reached a point where signs of instability had started appearing .

Holding onto his reddish helmet, Chen Yu gradually lowered his speed and explained to the camera, “The atmospheric pressure is growing increasingly higher . It’s already at four atmospheres at my current position . The temperature is also continuously increasing . Moreover, my surroundings are getting increasingly darker . If not for the protective suit brushing against the air, I wouldn’t even be able to see anything… This is depressing .

“I feel as if I am gradually moving towards death . ”

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud noise surpassing 200 decibels came from below!

The entire world instantly brightened! Chen Yu even nearly went blind from the sudden light .

As for the light’s source, it was a massive bolt of lightning that streaked through the clouds . The lightning arc’s length was immeasurable, and its width was at least hundreds of meters! The voltage contained within this single lightning bolt was simply unimaginable…

Psh—

Pressurizing the plasma engine, Chen Yu abruptly halted his descent . He then assumed a Superman posture and returned to where he came from without hesitation .

“It’s getting late, so that’s it for today’s review . ”

The audience: “…”
