Chapter 320 – Goodbye, Solar System (3)

America, Observer Conference Hall:

When the middle-aged team leader saw Xing Biqi appearing on the screen, although he remained calm on the surface, he was actually cursing loudly in his heart .

Leaning into the middle-aged team leader’s ear with her hand covering her mouth, Big Sis Wu asked, “Leader, should we start the emergency plan now? Now that there is a possibility for his identity to get exposed, we should prepare in advance . ”

“…Let’s wait for a while longer . It still isn’t time for us to reveal our cards . We cannot openly withdraw his family yet . Dammit, did he hit his head or something? How can he drag Xing Biqi into a livestream? Isn’t he afraid of getting exposed?”

“Maybe…” Hesitantly, Big Sis Wu said, “Maybe it’s a coincidence? He shouldn’t be aware that he had drawn an acquaintance . ”

“Is there such a possibility?” With his hand covering his mouth, the middle-aged team leader narrowed his eyes and said, “There’s less than a 0 . 00001% chance for a person to get selected . Can there even be such a coincidence? Even third-rate authors wouldn’t write such a plot!”

“Mhm . ” Nodding, Big Sis Wu said, “You’re right . ”

“However, we can’t sit still and do nothing, either . Notify the personnel in Jinzhou City to be on standby . However, don’t contact the local authorities yet . ”

“Yes, sir . ”

Aside from China’s teams, the other representative teams present in the hall were also busily having private discussions of their own while watching Chen Yu’s livestream . Hence, the two’s conversation did not look particularly strange .

However, it had still inevitably attracted the special attention of quite a few people…

…

Middle East, aboard the Type-R Spacecraft:

After verifying that Little Peach preferred to stay in the room, Chen Yu relaxed and walked up to the cabin entrance . He then hollered, “OK, you guys can come in now . ”

Hearing this, aside from the crestfallen Xing Biqi, everyone ran into the cabin excitedly .

“My god…”

The slightly chubby man, who was the first to board the spacecraft, couldn’t help but freeze up when he saw his surroundings . “Everything really is transparent… It’s like I’m standing in mid-air…”

“Don’t block the entrance,” the cross-dresser said as he raised his middle finger . “There are still many people waiting behind you . ”

“Bah . ” After regaining his senses, Leading Pillar curled his lips in contempt before stepping aside .

After everyone filed into the cabin, a series of exclamations immediately filled the cabin .

Even Xing Biqi couldn’t help but be attracted by the magical sight before her . However, immediately afterward, even stronger negative emotions flooded her brain .

It would be great if Chen Yu could see this as well…

[I’m dying from jealousy! I want to go there as well!]

[Jealousy, makes my grave give out smoke . ]

[I suddenly feel sorry for China . After expending so much effort to fly to Mars, the host is already flying out of the solar system . ]

[Without the host’s “Earth Spray,” humanity would need another 100 years before they can land on Mars . ]

[Where’s the female assistant? Wasn’t she inside the cabin just now?]

[She entered a room . ]

[But where’s the room? I don’t see it . ]

[It turned invisible together with the walls . ]

[How high-tech . Tsk, tsk . I have another bold idea…]

Whoosh!

Waving his hand, Chen Yu willed for the spacecraft to retract the staircase and close the cabin hatch . He then walked to the center of the hall and scanned the crowd around him . “We’ll start the takeoff now . There won’t be any vibrations throughout the whole process . However, if you are afraid of heights, you can close your eyes and wait until we fly out of the atmosphere .

“By the way, as everyone knows, high-speed navigation in the universe will produce an intense time dilation effect . Simply put, if the spacecraft is used as a reference of observation, you will find that the time around the spacecraft will rapidly slow down as the spacecraft’s speed increases . When the spacecraft reaches the speed of light, time will stop completely .

“However, as the Type-R Spacecraft navigates by altering its surrounding space that doesn’t carry any information, and the spacecraft itself doesn’t move, it won’t produce a Doppler effect .

“Due to this reason, even if we reach the speed of light, or even surpass it by dozens or hundreds of times, there won’t be a difference in our timeline with that of Earth . It will be like teleportation . Hence, you don’t need to worry that several thousand years will go by after we make a round trip . ”

Hearing Chen Yu’s words, several youngsters among the bullet comment group revealed disappeared expressions .

“So, that’s the case…”

“And here I thought I could see the future Earth . ”

“Me too . It would be wonderful if we could travel to the year 6666 . ”

Chen Yu: “…”

After a moment of silence, Chen Yu began earnestly scrutinizing the several crazy adventurers . He then faced the camera and said, “We’ll begin the voyage now . Everyone, let’s hype up the atmosphere and count down together with me . Ten!”

“Ten!” Jack Ma, the most excited person among the donation group, raised his hand and shouted, “Nine!”

“Nine!”

[8!]

[88888!]

[88!]

[Good child . ][1]

[Good child . ]

[Good child…]

[Crap!]

“Five!”

“Five!” Everyone inside the cabin followed Chen Yu’s rhythm and shouted .

“Three!

“Two!

“One!”

Spreading his arms, Chen Yu looked up at the blue sky and shouted, “Zero! Take off!”

Boom!

The spacecraft restarted its antigravity mode, and the terrifying air pressure it generated caused the ground to sink deeper instantly!

Bang!

A second later, the spacecraft shot into the sky like a cannonball, instantly breaking through the sound barrier!

“Woo!”

“Ahh!!”

“Crap…”

Despite not being able to feel the air resistance, the powerful takeoff still gave everyone a scare . When everyone looked at the receding scenery outside, they also couldn’t help but scream out loud .

This kind of experience far exceeded the thrill of walking across a glass bridge .

Yet, surprisingly, despite the spacecraft accelerating so rapidly, the gravity inside the spacecraft remained unchanged . If one ignored the view outside, they wouldn’t even notice that the spacecraft was moving at all .

Only Chen Yu, who was clad in the protective suit, was able to see the gradually increasing acceleration value .

“What an amazing buffering ability…”

Whoosh— Whoosh—

As the spacecraft flew faster and faster, the interactive event participants also noticed the resistance acting on the spacecraft .

Due to the intense friction, the atmosphere above the spacecraft had started burning up .

Inside the spacecraft, everyone felt as if they were covered in a semi-translucent sheet that distorted the world around them .

Boom… Boom…

When the spacecraft reached a height of 10,000 meters,

When the spacecraft reached a height of 10,000 meters, hundreds of ferocious lightning suddenly broke out around the spacecraft’s hull!

[This is crazy!]

[Dammit! It’s so cool!]

[Now this is what I call excitement!]

[I~ want~ to~ join~ too~]

[The acceleration is too insane . Are the people inside the spacecraft fine?]

[Don’t ask . The only answer you’ll get is ‘high-tech . ’]

[Isn’t this still a regular navigation mode? Why not alter the space directly? That’ll be more enjoyable . ]

[Earth: How did I give birth to you ingrates…]

Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Half a minute later, the spacecraft passed through the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere, arriving in the medium Earth orbit!

Mother Earth also gradually revealed her true form to everyone at this distance, transforming into a ball…

Inside the spacecraft, most of the interactive event participants had lied down on the ground as they stared at the massive, blue globe underneath them in astonishment .

In the case of the chubby man Leading Pillar, though, he lied down behind the cross-dresser Falling Dawn’s skirt, his gaze moving up and down in intervals . It would seem that he cared about something different than everyone else .

“Friends, I can’t believe we would fly out of Earth’s embrace so quickly,” Chen Yu commented as he removed his left glove and scanned at the bullet comments . He then faced the camera and said excitedly, “According to the operation instructions, once the spacecraft crosses the asteroid belt, it will no longer be affected by the sun’s powerful gravitational force . It can then enter the FTL navigation mode and charge out of the solar system in one go!

“As for our first destination for today…” Stretching out a hand and pointing at a shining star outside the spacecraft, Chen Yu said, “It will be the Proxima Centauri, which is 4 . 22 light-years away from Earth .

“Everyone, cheers . Let us…

“Launch an attack on the three-body system!”
