346 The Beginning of Destruction, Death! 1
“All self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft must be delivered to the launch port!”
“Powerful light speed power cannons are fully recharged.”
“Target locked on the Moon’s central rift.”
“The Lunar Blast Project has a success rate of 75%!”
“Launch preparations are complete. Confirming original plan and commencing firing?”
Bai Ze's icy voice echoed as he delivered the report.
“Fire!” Li Chengqian commanded without a second's hesitation.
A hundred kilometers away from the battle command center, the ground split open, revealing the muzzles of the colossal, hundred-meter-thick powerful light speed power cannons.
These cannons were not limited to firing projectiles; they could launch anything susceptible to electromagnetic acceleration.
Accordingly, the self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft were also accelerated and launched from the ground.
BOOM!
A self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft, propelled to its absolute limit, shot from the earth into the heavens.
Its velocity was so immense that upon entering the atmosphere, the specialized materials on its exterior ignited, reacting with the air and producing brilliant flames. These became streaks of crimson lightning piercing the sky.
Swiftly following, more self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft were launched in rapid succession.
Both the heavens and the earth were bathed in the intense light.
“The Lunar Blast Project has commenced!” Bathed in the crimson inferno, everyone ceased their activities, gazing skyward.
“The Prophet Leader has initiated the plan!”
“The self-exploding spacecraft have been launched!”
“Everyone, make haste!”
“If the self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft fail to achieve the intended effect, the shelters we are constructing now will represent humanity’s final hope.”
“Old Li, do you believe our son can shatter the Moon?” Chen Li asked, her eyes fixed on the celestial body, which loomed ever larger in the sky. What was once scarcely bigger than a car now resembled a small mountain suspended overhead, its surface fissures starkly visible.
“Absolutely! Your son can accomplish anything! Don't overthink it. Hurry and continue your work; we mustn't burden our son at this critical moment,” Li Lantian responded instantly. He activated his Farmer profession's planting skill.
“Piao Ling, do you think we'll survive?” A tall, robust young man was operating a massive truck laden with the metallic components required for Shelter construction.
Seated beside him was a beautiful young woman, her gaze fixed on the flames ascending into the sky with a mix of hope and longing. “Under the Prophet Leader's guidance, we will undoubtedly survive. Once we are settled, I will marry you and we will raise a family together.”
At that precise moment, every soul paused in unison, their eyes transfixed on the Moon, now the size of a small mountain in the sky.
The self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft streaked through the atmosphere, penetrating the vast lunar fissure exactly three minutes later, precisely on their designated course.
The subsequent barrage of self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft followed suit.
“3… 2… 1! Detonate!” Li Chengqian seized the opportune moment, transmitting the command to trigger the explosives.
Every self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft, concentrated at the Moon's core, detonated simultaneously.
On Earth, these nuclear fusion weapons were known as hydrogen bombs!
They represented the ultimate in destructive power on the planet.
The fundamental principle behind hydrogen bombs mirrored that of the sun; the sun's perpetual combustion stemmed from continuous internal fusion.
Consequently, hydrogen bombs were also referred to as miniature suns.
Each hydrogen bomb aboard the self-detonating fusion bomb spacecraft possessed immense power. Detonated on Earth, any single one could obliterate an area with a radius of 500 kilometers.
In this instance, all the hydrogen bombs manufactured by Li Chengqian were unleashed concurrently.
Their combined yield was sufficient to submerge Sun Island beneath the ocean!
And now, these terrifying instruments of mass destruction erupted in unison at Li Chengqian's command!
An explosive bloom of fire erupted, instantly engulfing the massive lunar rift.
An unfathomable force emanated from the epicenter of the blast; the very fabric of space seemed to warp from the sheer magnitude of this unprecedented nuclear fusion detonation.
The Moon itself bore the full brunt of the fusion explosion’s power.
Propelled outwards from the colossal fissure, it fractured into four distinct pieces.
On the ground, the massive, full moon that had loomed like a mountain peak erupted with blindingly brilliant light. Its customary silver luminescence was supplanted by an inferno of fiery red.
Amidst the raging flames, the enormous disc of the Moon appeared as if it had plummeted to the earth.
Like a shattered plate cast upon the ground, it broke apart into four fragments.
The fractured pieces, each possessing a unique mass, experienced varying forces originating from the hydrogen bomb's detonation. They gradually drifted apart in the atmosphere, their distances from each other increasing. Traveling at distinct velocities and trajectories, these fragments transformed into four shimmering shards of silver suspended against the sky. A wave of astonishment and elation washed over the onlookers. Many embraced in their shared joy, while others let out shouts of sheer excitement. Discovering a glimmer of hope amidst utter despair proved to be the most exhilarating sensation. "It's a success!" "We actually did it!" "The Moon has been shattered!" "With the Moon obliterated, it can no longer disintegrate the Earth." While the crowd comprised individuals who were not scientists, they all grasped a fundamental concept: when the nest is overturned, no egg remains whole! If Earth were to disintegrate, no human life would persist. Stripped of Earth's protective atmosphere, a human body could only endure approximately 60 seconds against the sun's frigid vacuum. As long as Earth remained, even if the Moon's remnants caused devastation upon its surface, the possibility of survival would persist, unlike the finality of planetary disintegration. "Everyone, back to work!" "Let's construct the shelters! This is our only means of surviving the onslaught of the Moon's fragments."
