812: Lei Ming: That kid got away with it again.

Time jumped forward in a tense and exciting atmosphere.

On this day, Yang Dian, who had just exhausted his last bit of energy, felt a gloom rise in his heart, and then, sensing something, looked up at the sky.

The projections of Dr. Bai, Han Zhang, Lei Ming, and others appeared beside him at the opportune moment:

"In three days, the Solar System will collide with the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone."

"Six seconds ago, Earth, or rather the entire Solar System, was affected by the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone, and temperatures began to drop."

"Currently, at the new crust location, the sunlit area is -36℃, and the shaded area is -106℃."

"It is estimated that after the official collision with the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone, the Earth's crust temperature will drop below -200℃, and the Sun may extinguish."

"Even Earth's revolution and rotation might be frozen."

"I don't know how many Star Systems the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone has devoured, but at this rate, there's a very high chance that Earth will collide with other celestial bodies after entering the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone..."

Listening to the words constantly coming from Dr. Bai's mouth, Yang Dian pondered for a long time before asking:

"Didn't the quantum radar detect the specific situation inside the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone?"

Dr. Bai shook his head:

"No."

"It can only detect that the interior is a shadow."

At this point, his expression became even more solemn:

"The essential operation of quantum radar is quantum entanglement."

"That is, our quantum information here can entangle with quantum information at the other end of the Universe, and quantum information at the other end of the Universe can also entangle with our quantum information here."

"Since we started probing the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone, a total of 72 quantum radars on our side have been affected by the Cosmic Extreme Cold Zone and frozen."

"They are now on the space station of the Mars Base, where I placed them."

At this point, Dr. Bai curved his lips again and tapped his wristband.

Then, a futuristic technological city, as if it had experienced endless war, was projected in front of everyone.

Collapsed skyscrapers, vacuum corridors emitting black smoke, faint sounds of collisions and explosions, and occasional flashes of fire... all spoke of the disaster the city projected by Dr. Bai had endured.

Han Zhang, observing the projected image closely, narrowed his pupils until he saw a certain landmark building, then exclaimed in shock:

"Is this Mars Base City No. 1?"

"Yes." Dr. Bai nodded to Han Zhang:

"This is Mars Base City No. 1."

"But how did Base City No. 1 become like this?" Han Zhang said with some disbelief:

"How long ago did we relocate those people there?"

"According to the original Earth time, it's less than 200 days."

"They turned Base City No. 1 into this?"

Dr. Bai put his cupped hand in front and coughed:

"Cough ~"

"Actually, I played a role in this."

"I released the information that the Solar System was about to collide with the Extreme Cold Zone, and that the end of the world was coming."

"You all know the temperament of those people in The West."

"Although their memories have been rewoven by us, their true nature remains."

"Since it's the end of the world, they naturally want to 'celebrate'."

"It's normal for the Base City to become like this."

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things."

Lao Bai tapped his wristband a few more times, and a series of frozen quantum radars appeared before them:

"Look, these are the frozen quantum radars."

"And these are videos of the quantum radars being frozen."

"To be safe, in case intelligent life in the Extreme Cold Zone noticed something amiss, I placed the radars on Mars."

"However, so many radars broke, and there was no movement within the Extreme Cold Zone, so the possibility of intelligent life existing inside is relatively small."

"Or perhaps the intelligent life within the Extreme Cold Zone has limitations and cannot leave the Extreme Cold Zone..."

Yang Dian raised his hand to stop Lao Bai's rambling:

"It's meaningless to talk about these things now. The Foreign devils we deployed to the various Base Cities on Mars are just bait; there's no need to pay so much attention to them."

"Time is pressing; let's talk about the preparations we've made on our side."

As his voice fell, everyone present looked at Han Zhang.

Han Zhang, who had transitioned from the chief of the Think Tank to the head of logistics, picked up a pointer, and several light screens appeared behind him:

"The current Chinese population on Earth, including newborns, totals 1.763532026 billion people."

"Everyone has already had the System installed."

"Newborns, because they haven't ignited the Starfire, have the System in a semi-bound state, with only the 'activate teleportation upon encountering a fatal crisis' function enabled."

"So whether it's newborns, children, or adults, once they encounter a crisis, they will be teleported to a safe point."

"There are 101 safe points in total."

"Emerald Dragon Star, and 100 Base Cities."

"The surface of Emerald Dragon Star has been renovated, and 72 giant cities have been built, enough to accommodate all Citizens, and the Spirit Gathering Array foundations and tracks have been laid, awaiting activation."

"The other 100 bases are located on dead stars in Star Systems like Tiannan Star. Each Base City has an independent and complete industrial base and has stored a large amount of Materials. In case of an accident, people arriving at these Base Cities can control the Machina to autonomously produce star destroyers and star destroyers."

"Ensuring that we have the ability to explore deep space."

"Within the Solar System, all Earth civilization creations, including but not limited to space debris, except for 'Mars Civilization Artifacts,' have been dealt with."

"The electromagnetic broadcasts that space agencies like NASA once sent into deep space have been disguised as 'Mars gamers' who, after long periods of gaming, blurred the line between game and reality, developed delusions, and broadcasted game information into the Universe."

"Without an increase in the current strength of our Citizens, our reserves of food, medicine, and other resources are sufficient to support us for over a hundred years."

"Our reserves of deuterium, a raw material for nuclear fusion, are enough for over 100,000 years."

"Resources such as oil, coal, and heavy metals have also reached their target storage quantities."

"A giant underground base has been excavated 3,000 kilometers deep, sufficient for all 1.7 billion people in the country to survive."

"The number of combat robots is nearly a trillion, ready to be activated for battle at any time; there are 30,000 star destroyers, 5 million Star-Patrolling Realm ships..."

"Infants and children under 12 have been fully relocated. The rest are willing to fight to protect Earth and protect China, and we have the strength to fight..."

...As Han Zhang finished listing the resource and war reserves, Lei Ming immediately stood up:

"After the expansion of the Expeditionary Force, the main corps has reached 10,000 people, of whom 7,325 have reached the Martial Dao Fifth Realm, Qi and Blood Wolf Smoke Realm. The remaining 2,675 people have all reached the Qi Blood Dragon Transformation Realm."

"With the assistance of mechs, their actual combat capabilities can all reach the Star-Patrolling Realm."

"The auxiliary corps, the Lizardmen Corps, has 3 million members. With the assistance of Machina mechs and biological mechs, individuals can unleash Qi and Blood Transforming Dragon combat power."

"The auxiliary corps, the Zombie Corps, has 6 million members. Although their strength is in the Mortal Body Realm, they are not afraid of death. Through embedded brainwave devices, their movements can be perfectly controlled, and they can be used as cannon fodder."

"The Beast-Ear Tribe is too small in number, and their strength is generally weak, so they have not been conscripted..."

...After Lei Ming introduced the situation of the Expeditionary Force, Dr. Bai shrugged:

"My situation is as it is; there haven't been any technological Breakthroughs recently."

"I didn't even manage to build the Dyson Sphere that was planned to cover the Sun."

At this point, he looked at Yang Dian again:

"However, years ago, I left a contingency in the Sun. Later, you can take me to the edge of the Sun, and I will activate that contingency."

Yang Dian raised an eyebrow upon hearing this:

"What contingency did you prepare inside the Sun?"

Lao Bai self-deprecatingly said:

"To be honest, it was originally meant to restrict you."

"It's just that your improvement speed was too fast, and my little schemes..."

"Tsk ~"

Looking at the self-deprecating Lao Bai, Yang Dian, with his hands in his pockets, also smiled.

If he and Lao Bai had swapped positions, he probably would have had the same thoughts as Lao Bai; it was no surprise.

Ultimately, he won.

Just as he was about to take Lao Bai to the edge of the Sun, Yang Dian saw everyone else's gaze fall upon him.

"Why are you looking at me?"

Lei Ming blinked, curiously asking:

"What's your current strength?"

Yang Dian's smile deepened:

"My strength has improved, but I still can't punch the Sun apart."

Lei Ming showed a hint of regret:

"Still haven't stepped into the fifth tier, huh?"

No sooner had his mutterings faded than he heard Yang Dian continue:

"After all, the Sun isn't small among stars."

"For me to want to punch the Sun apart just after stepping into the fifth tier, it's ultimately a bit of a pipe dream."

At this point, Yang Dian looked at Lao Bai.

The next moment, the space around them began to distort.

When the space returned to calm, the two had disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only Yang Dian's words still echoing in place:

"To punch the Sun apart, it would probably take a hundred or eighty punches."

Lei Ming: ... "Damn it, that kid showed off again."
