Chapter 369 – Maddening Twelfth Official Livestream! (3)
“Let’s move two light-years away from the solar system and see if that’s a sufficiently safe distance.”
When this sentence echoed through every corner of the Observer Conference Hall, everyone in the room promptly fell into a state of bewilderment.
“…”
With trembling hands, Britain’s representative said in a hoarse tone, “Please rewind a little. I seemed to have misheard just now.”
After the on-site staff turned to look at America’s representative briefly, he rewound the video playing in the special livestream room by half a minute.
“Let’s move two light-years away from the solar system and see if that’s a sufficiently safe distance.”
“…”
“…”
“Two light-years…”
Bang!
Britain’s representative slammed his palms onto the table as he shouted, “What the hell is he reviewing?! Why does he need to move two light-years away?!”
“Earth is about one light-year away from the solar system’s edge. If he’s going to a location that’s two light-years away from the solar system, the total distance should be three light-years,” France’s representative corrected.
“You shut up!”
“OK.” France’s representative raised his hands in submission. “You speak.”
“Contact him! We must contact him! The fact that he needs to go so far away to conduct his review proves that the product carries extreme danger! We have the right to know what it is!”
“Those in agreement, raise your hand.” Due to the urgency of the situation, America’s representative did not waste time with worths and immediately began the voting procedure.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
All 122 representatives present raised their hands simultaneously.
“Passed.” After confirming the decision, America’s representative looked toward the middle-aged team leader and said, “Contact him. At the very least, we need to know how dangerous the product is exactly, and if there is a need for us to evacuate the citizens.”
“Okay.”
Nodding, the middle-aged team leader accepted the tablet Big Sis Wu handed to him. He then had his fingerprint scanned and relayed the conference’s decision to his superior.
Two minutes later, his superior approved the conference’s request. An operator stationed in a military base in Beijing then unlocked the computer before him. Under the attention of many armed soldiers and leaders, he accessed Bilibili’s platform, entered the private conversation room with Transdimensional Review’s channel, and typed away at the keyboard.
[Chinese Government: Dear Mr. Chen, we are very worried about the dangers of your review product. Can you please explain it to us in detail so that we can prepare beforehand?]
“Sirs, is this alright?” the operator asked out loud.
In another room, over a dozen think tanks scrutinized the sentence meticulously, sweat covering their foreheads. Only after pondering for half a minute did they give the green light to the sentence.
Meanwhile, upon seeing the green light, the general supervisor approached the computer and sternly had his fingerprint scanned, completing the final step of authorization. Only then did the short message consisting of two dozen words or so get sent.
Less than two minutes later, Chen Yu responded.
[Transdimensional Review: “Don’t be afraid. The review cannot be called off. Although I don’t know what product will get sent, I will try to move as far away as possible. Today’s review should be much safer compared to the beast armor and antimatter bomb reviews.”]
“Quick! Forward the message! Send a copy to the team leader, higher-ups, and several think tank groups!” the supervisor commanded.
“Yes, sir.”
The tedious and careful communication process took place slowly.
Meanwhile, Chen Yu, who had long since flown out of Earth’s atmosphere on the Type-R Spacecraft, leisurely responded to the Chinese Government.
Roughly ten minutes later, both sides concluded their talks.
Exiting his private conversation room in Bilibili, Chen Yu faced away from the camera and pulled out his phone. He then entered WeChat and typed a message.
[Chen Yu: “Sis, are you sure Earth won’t be endangered?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “So long as you move to a sufficiently distant location, the product’s arrival won’t have any impact on the solar system. As to whether the product would pose any danger to the solar system afterward, that would depend on how you make use of it.”]
[Chen Yu: “Should I go a little further than the minimum distance, then?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “That would be meaningless. Once a problem occurs, everything within a radius of hundreds of light-years would be sent to purgatory.”]
[Chen Yu: “Fuck… Just what did you apply for me?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “:)”]
[Chen Yu: “I can’t possibly travel several hundred light-years away, right?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “If you are worried, you can move away from Earth’s ecliptic.”]
[Chen Yu: “Will leaving the ecliptic plane increase Earth’s safety?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “In theory, yes. The lethality of the product will be sharply reduced from 433TT to 41TT.”]
[Chen Yu: “I see! How big is the difference between 433TT and 41TT?”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Not much. The solar system would be doomed regardless.”]
[Chen Yu: “…”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “Do you have any other questions, Mr. Chen?”]
[Chen Yu: “No. Thank you for your damned answer.”]
[Transdimensional Marketing: “I am only doing what I should.”]
“Fuck.”
Turning off his phone, Chen Yu took a deep breath and maintained a calm appearance externally.
Currently, he had hundreds of millions of people watching him. If he showed even the slightest bit of worry on his face, it could end up causing a frightening chain reaction.
This is what it means to be a man. I have to use my shoulders to bear all pressures for the world and maintain the stable operation of civilization…
Sighing, Chen Yu turned around and narrated to the camera, “The spacecraft is closing in on the asteroid belt. We’ll be exiting the sun’s strong gravitational field soon. Once we’re out, we can start FTL navigation. A measly journey of two light-years won’t take long to complete, so please wait patiently.
“Also, I’ll say this here. Out of the many reviews I’ve conducted, have I ever caused harm to Earth or humans before? I have even saved Earth from an asteroid collision before. Hence, please rest assured. Do not believe the unreliable rumors on the internet.
“How about this? With my reputation on the line, I promise that I’ll pay you back tenfold if I destroy Earth. How about it? Sincere, right? Subscribe to the channel if you like it.”
[Just listen to him. Are these words a human should say?]
[I think I’ll head back to my basement.]
[Yes, do it. You can get buried straight away if things go wrong.]
[Don’t be too mean. The UP is already doing his best. Also, if he’s not confident, would he dare promise to compensate us tenfold?]
[Who would believe that?!]
[I have something I need to say. I suddenly realized that after the UP appeared, Earth seems to be facing many more dangers…]
[Severely disrupting public order is punishable by death.]
Amidst the tide of bullet comments, the Type-R Spacecraft quickly passed through the asteroid belt and left the sun’s strong gravitational field.
For the sake of the program’s progression, Chen Yu had the spacecraft begin traveling at 5,000 times the speed of light without hesitation.
[Speed of Light x5,000!]
[15 AU/s!]
In an instant, the spatial lens phenomenon took place, and space within the cabin became distorted and bizarre.
“At our current speed, exiting the solar system and moving an additional two light-years away will take around two hours and forty-five minutes. If you find the subsequent journey to be boring, you can leave to deal with your own matters and return three hours later.”
As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, the livestream’s total viewer count instantly plummeted. Very quickly, only 300 million viewers remained.
Transdimensional Review was indeed the most shocking and magical existence to have appeared in human history. However, to ordinary people, its importance was still not comparable to their daily lives.
Once the program got boring, not many people were willing to wait before their screens to witness the so-called making of history.
Subsequently, time passed by quickly.
As Chen Yu remained silent throughout the journey, the leftover audience in the various livestream rooms treated the bullet comment sections as a large chat room and began talking about various topics. For example, they talked about delicacies, mountaineering, music, basketball, games, etc.
Interestingly, no topic remained civilized for more than a dozen sentences before a war of curses began between millions of people.
Only when pornography came up as a topic did everyone show alike-minded friendship…
Two hours and forty-five minutes later…
The Type-R Spacecraft came to an abrupt stop, and space within the cabin returned to normal.
Opening his eyes, Chen Yu stood up and looked back at the solar system. He then faced the camera and said, “Sorry for the long wait. We’ve delayed the start of the review for nearly three hours. Now, it is finally time for the livestream to officially begin…
“Friends, liven up the bullet comment section!”
