201: Chapter 201 Magnetic Power

"As expected of intelligent alien beings, you have actually bypassed Controlled Nuclear Fusion and developed a brand-new propulsion system!"

Inside the Lighthouse.

In the command room, on the massive electronic screen, the figure of the Lord of the Black Robe appeared. Seeing the footage of the Lighthouse taking off being transmitted over, he immediately sent a congratulatory message.

Some time ago, with the ocean expanding, the actions of their so-called United States in abandoning the populace had already caused the light of their Lighthouse to dim.

Later, the emergence of Controlled Nuclear Fusion caused the light of the Lighthouse to be extinguished completely; the country was already filled with widespread looting and had become a scattered mess.

However, he didn't care anymore. Now, he was just waiting for the Lighthouse to rise majestically, take the Antarctic continent in one fell swoop, and annihilate the Dragon Country's carrier fleet; then, the Lighthouse could be reignited once again.

And now!

The Lighthouse, an aircraft carrier body weighing 500,000 tons—comparable to five 100,000-ton aircraft carriers—was actually able to lift off and hover without being driven by Controlled Nuclear Fusion!

The Lizard Queen smiled slightly. Standing in the command room and looking at the Lord of the Black Robe on the electronic screen, she said, "Controlled Nuclear Fusion is only one type of energy propulsion. In this universe, there are still many other propulsion systems."

"What you say is true, Queen! I will go and announce it to the world immediately to shake that evil dragon!"

The Lord of the Black Robe said, then went offline.

The Lizard Queen smiled indifferently and said nothing.

Behind her, in addition to a group of strange-looking alien lifeforms, there was also an old man.

This old man was wearing a pure black stand-up collar outfit, his head was bald, but the boots on his feet had a distinct medieval style.

"Might the Lizard Queen reveal a little bit about what kind of propulsion the Lighthouse is actually relying on?"

The old man suddenly asked.

The Lizard Queen glanced back at him and said, "Mr. Bruce, you have lived for a thousand years; you should be quite knowledgeable."

"No, compared to you, I am still lacking by a great deal."

Bruce spoke modestly, but in his heart, he thought, 'You old hag, you pushed the Anglo-Saxons from behind to suck up so much talent, capital, technology, and resources from the entire planet, which triggered the second and third industrial revolutions and built the Lighthouse. If you gave me command, I would have already flown out of the Solar System and ruled the Milky Way Galaxy; would I still need to fight back and forth with an ancient Eastern country?'

Of course.

The low-key and skilled-at-running-away Mr. Bruce did not voice these inner thoughts.

As early as the Middle Ages, he knew that this planet had some alien lifeforms from other planets.

These alien lifeforms did not know where they came from, and their peak power was currently only at the Super S sequence.

But!

They had their own methods for utilizing tools.

The development of the steam engine, electricity, and computers, under their behind-the-scenes promotion, exploded globally, directly leaving the planet's oldest and most glorious ancient civilization, the 'Dragon Country,' far behind for a time!

Watching wave after wave of major technological revolutions develop and grow under the promotion of the Lizard Queen within the Anglo-Saxon civilization circle... the Dragon Country had actually caught up quickly again.

Especially in the last year, it had been earth-shattering. Brain-like Mecha, Carbon-9 molecular material, Kuafu Chasing the Sun Propulsion System, the twenty-times speed of sound Xuan Nu Fighter Jet, Controlled Nuclear Fusion, etc., had appeared one after another. And the emergence of these technologies far exceeded the promotion that the Area 51 alien lifeforms had given to the Anglo-Saxons.

For a time.

The United States' aircraft carriers around the globe were destroyed one by one by the Dragon Country.

Until today.

Only this last aerospace carrier remained: the Lighthouse.

"Humans are still too weak. I spent so much effort and laid out plans for hundreds of years, yet it has only developed to this point."

The Lizard Queen shook her head.

These technologies of hers all came from her home planet. She sought the Anglo-Saxons to act as her spokespeople only because she wanted them to utilize Earth's resources to develop an interstellar spacecraft to take her away from this Solar System.

She had originally thought that this United States could embody a Lighthouse and unify the Earth, but she didn't expect it couldn't even defeat one ancient Eastern country.

"Yes, the human constitution is naturally too weak; some things are comprehended too slowly."

Bruce agreed.

Although he was still in human form, he was no longer a human in the worldly sense.

He had long since regarded himself as a cosmic being like the Lizard Queen, not an Earthling.

"Actually, that Dragon Country is also very strange."

"In the beginning, I had also been to the Dragon Country to investigate, wanting to find spokespeople, but the people there seemed to disdain it, even saying things like, 'Those who are not of our race must have a different heart'... So, I later sought the Anglo-Saxons in Western Europe."

The Lizard Queen said slowly.

Bruce shuddered. The Lizard Queen had actually sought out the Dragon Country before promoting the great revolution.

"It seems the Dragon Country missed a great opportunity."

"No, you are wrong. I went to the Dragon Country around 700 AD. At that time, their king was called Tang. Back then, they already had a type of porcelain that could penetrate almost all matter in the universe, reaching absolute smoothness."

The Lizard Queen shook her head.

Looking at Tang's surface society, most of them were still in an agricultural society, but privately, some noble families were already researching some esoteric arts, and the materials in the field of porcelain had already reached a shocking level.

It just hadn't been popularized on a large scale yet.

"This is unheard of."

Bruce frowned!

He had always been lurking in the Western Europe region because he believed that 'too much talk leads to mistakes' and 'if you walk the night road often, you will eventually encounter a ghost.' Therefore, he insisted on staying in a safe comfort zone, being vigilant against everything dangerous—if he could defeat them, he would kill them overnight; if he couldn't, he would move house overnight.

"Besides porcelain, the Tang King's research on magnetic field propulsion was also very profound. I once saw a scene where Tang dynasty nobles steered sailboats without propulsion... Speaking of which, the Lighthouse's magnetic propulsion is merely an amplified version of the magnetic propulsion usage of their Tang dynasty sailboats."

The Lizard Queen said indifferently.

Magnetic propulsion originates from the rotation of the Earth itself.

As long as the rotation doesn't undergo too drastic a change—like a sudden fluctuation in the Moon's gravity—it is very stable under normal circumstances.

And the Lighthouse's magnetic propulsion is driven by utilizing Earth's own power.

To a certain extent, this is cleaner than Controlled Nuclear Fusion.

Of course.

The drawbacks are also very obvious.

That is, after leaving the Earth's magnetic field, the magnetic propulsion fails.

Whereas Controlled Nuclear Fusion can be used no matter where you go.

"So it is utilizing Earth's magnetic field power."

Bruce suddenly understood.

No wonder the United States was able to make the Lighthouse fly even after the Dragon Country had developed Controlled Nuclear Fusion first.

What it relied on was not Controlled Nuclear Fusion, but Earth's magnetic field power!

"Since the Lighthouse is so powerful, then, the Dragon Country is going to suffer, right!"

Bruce asked tentatively.

If both sides really were to fight, he would definitely run away in advance.

He didn't join the Lighthouse to be a pawn. He just purely wanted to survive!

"I have no grievances with the Dragon Country; why should I fight them to the death?"

"I sought the Anglo-Saxons to act as spokespeople only because..."

The Lizard Queen looked at the electronic screen.

On it was a four-dimensional map outlining the Milky Way Galaxy, and one of the coordinates was a planet that was shining brightly.

She stared at this coordinate and said, "Ascension!"
