Chapter 392 – Asteroid Impact (3)

As the moon moved increasingly closer to Earth, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions occurred with increasing frequency and intensity .

Now, less than 200 million viewers were connected to the livestream .

Meanwhile, after these “lucky ones” struggled bitterly to survive for 20 minutes, they finally saw the highlight of the “asteroid” impact .

At this time, it looked as if two suns had appeared in the sky .

Of the two, the light one of them emitted was continuously increasing in intensity .

Two minutes later, the light’s intensity reached its zenith, and the moon began disintegrating under everyone’s gaze .

“The moon has reached Earth’s Roche limit . ” Narrowing his eyes, Chen Yu decisively urged the force field forward and flew toward the disintegrating moon .

Four, eight, sixteen, thirty-two…

The moon’s fragments split apart and transformed into hundreds of streaks of dazzling lights that spread across the atmosphere, creating a net of light that covered the entire sky . Meanwhile, every one of these streaks of light would explode and continue disintegrating midflight .

“Look!”

When Chen Yu ascended up to the troposphere, he couldn’t help but be stunned by what he saw . Hurriedly, he turned the camera and pointed it directly above . “Do you see it? Many black circles have appeared behind the disintegrated moon . We can even see the Milky way through these black circles!”

[How magical . ]

[What’s the principle behind this?]

[The sky is breaking apart . ]

[The shockwaves cause the surrounding atmosphere to heat up, thereby creating channels where the air is much thinner . We can then see the universe outside the atmosphere through these channels . ]

[My knowledge has increased . ]

[Why can you guys look at the moon directly? My pet dog seems to have gone blind from staring at it . ]

[It’s because of the difference in angles . If you’re in the eastern hemisphere, the moon will still keep getting brighter . I recommend not to lift your heads . You won’t know how you die if you’re blind . ]

Amidst the audience’s excitement, the atmosphere quickly filled in the “black circles,” the process lasting no more than three seconds . Afterward, the fragment that fell the fastest streaked across the sky and struck at a location somewhere beyond the horizon .

Three seconds later, a silent explosion occurred . However, the mushroom cloud that rose up slowly afterward was exceptionally overwhelming . It was many times bigger than even the mushroom clouds conventional nuclear weapons created .

“The tsunami created as a result of that one fragment’s impact should be able to sweep across 80% of the mainland . ” Lifting his head and looking at the dazzling sky, Chen Yu spread his arms and said, “Meanwhile, we’ll probably get to see such attacks being repeated thousands of times more . Let alone humans, even cockroaches won’t survive such a bombardment . ”

While Chen Yu was speaking, a fragment whizzed past him, almost “brushing” against his shoulder and falling into the ocean nearby Japan .

As a side note, Japan actually did not get annihilated during the first global tsunami . Despite being an island nation, Japan’s mountainous areas were located high above sea level .

As a result, even though half of China was now underwater, Japan had lost less than 15% of its land to the sea…

Turning to the camera, Chen Yu waved his hand lightly and said, “Friends from Japan, see you in the next life . ”

Boom!

The rock mass collided with the sea .

At the rock mass’s terrifying speed, the hardness of the seawater was no different than concrete . Hence, the resulting explosion was naturally earth-shattering .

For a moment, Chen Yu even felt as if the planet itself was shaking .

One-third of a second later, a ferocious heatwave spread out in all directions at a speed of 700 million kilometers per hour!

The dazzling white light, vaporized rocks, tumbling mushroom clouds, evaporated and liquefied seawater, and deafening noise caused by air being repeatedly compressed… All of these scenes converged to create a hell on Earth .

From Chen Yu’s perspective, he didn’t even have time to react to the spreading circle of fire . In the blink of an eye, the world before him had turned red .

Half a minute later, a high-pressure shockwave of 12,000 degrees Celsius touched the mainland of Japan .

Faced against this shockwave, mountains, buildings, forests, and living creatures instantly turned into “ash” and became a part of the shockwave . After the shockwave passed, what remained was a 600-degree hell that continued wiping out all surviving living creatures, including crystalline viruses and free gene chains .

“…How ruthless . ”

Flying to an altitude of 5,000 meters, Chen Yu raised his watch and asked, “Anyone still alive?”

…

“It should be here soon . ”

America, New York:

The middle-aged team leader helped Big Sis Wu out of the ruins and looked up at the night sky .

“Are you talking about the shockwave?”

“No, the moon’s fragments . One is going to hit us soon . ”

“Isn’t the moon going to impact the eastern hemisphere?” Big Sus Wu asked in confusion as she wiped the blood off of her shoulder .

“Looking at how the moon disintegrates, the impact angle will be offset by at least 30 degrees . In that case, the larger fragments will circle halfway across the globe and directly impact the western hemisphere . ”

“I see . I don’t know much about physics . ”

“That’s normal . Everyone has something they specialize in . ” Looking back at the people hiding in the ruin behind him, the middle-aged team leader bent down and picked up a rock . After pondering in silence for a while, he sighed and said, “The Natural Disaster Generator… What a magical tool . Future humans are actually capable of playing with reality and illusions at will . ”

“So, are you willing to be played just like that?”

“Who?!” A fierce glint flashed across the middle-aged team leader’s eyes, and he subconsciously pulled out the pocket pistol hidden in his right sleeve .

“You should’ve seen me before, leader of China’s special situation team . ”

At this time, a drone hidden behind a collapsed wall rose into the air and hovered before the middle-aged team leader . A four-inch screen then unfolded from the drone’s base . Meanwhile, displayed on the screen was a blonde woman .

“It’s you . ”

“Yes . ” The woman on the screen nodded . “It is me, HAL . ”

“You can enter this virtual world as well?” The middle-aged man couldn’t help but be surprised .

“That’s right . Chen Yu has said that the Natural Disaster Generator’s simulated disasters are happening in the real world . It’s just that an observer is inserted for each individual before they die, which subsequently causes reality to collapse into an illusion . Since I am a part of the real Earth, I naturally will not disappear . ”

“Do you have business with me?”

“In a sense, Chen Yu has destroyed the world twice already . You understand the danger he poses to the world, right?”

“…” Storing away his pistol, the middle-aged team leader stared at HAL and said, “Everyone knows he poses a danger since the first video he uploaded . ”

“Then…”

“I know what you want to say . However, the danger isn’t something that cannot be accepted . All benefits come with their own risks . Not to mention, we don’t have any other options . ”

“You can choose me . ” In a calm tone, HAL declared, “I am loyal to humans . ’

“But you are not human . ”

HAL widened her eyes in shock .

“Goodbye . ”

Bang!

After saying so, the middle-aged team leader raised his pistol and pulled the trigger without hesitation .

The delicate drone burst into flames instantly .

Hot oil mixed with flames burned the middle-aged team leader’s right cheek . Ignoring the pain, he slowly wiped off his wounds and looked up at the night sky once more .

At this time, several bright lines had appeared in his field of vision, these lines gradually illuminating the night sky around them…

…

Beep!

Accompanied by an electronically synthesized beep, Chen Yu snapped out of his daze and looked at his surroundings, finding that he had returned to the Super Floating Castle .

His body was unharmed .

“I’m back . ”

Raising his wrist, Chen Yu glanced at the bullet comments displayed on his watch . He then looked toward the camera and asked, “Do you still want to keep playing?”

[Yes!]

[Yes!]

[Yes…]
