Chapter 113: Additional Livestream (3)
Chapter 113 – Additional Livestream (3)
Accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, a scorching white beam emerged from the hilt!
In the next moment, the westerly wind sent Chen Yu’s haori fluttering. Simultaneously, as the blinding glow from the lightsaber settled, a simple Peking opera mask appeared behind it. Combined, the two scenes caused Chen Yu’s appearance to become overflowing with a sense of coolness and fierceness.
The bullet comment section immediately exploded into activity.
[Stop acting! My eyes hurt!]
[Awesome!]
[One word—Stunning!]
[It’s really a lightsaber!]
[And here comes the question. Is the lightsaber stronger, or is it the 404 Heat Ray Gun? If the two are pitted against each other, will the heat ray melt the lightsaber, or will the lightsaber bisect the heat ray?]
[It depends on who manages to streak the other’s main body first…]
[Shouldn’t the real question be what would happen if two lightsabers clash with each other?]
[The human beings of the future genuinely are terrifying.]
[Is there a limit to the length of the blade? If not, please split the Earth in half. I want to see what’s inside.]
[You might as well split the sun…]
Tightening his grip around the hilt, Chen Yu carefully pointed the blade forward.
This weapon was no laughing matter.
As the lightsaber’s wielder, he could tell that it was much more dangerous than the 404 Heat Ray Gun. If he accidentally brushed the blade across his body, he might become the joke of the century.
“Now that I’ve powered up the blade, let’s talk about my impressions. The beam itself doesn’t give off any heat. However, if my skin comes close to it, I will still feel discomfort. Moreover, I can constantly hear a very faint sound of something burning. It might be a result of the lightsaber disintegrating the tiny substances in the air.”
Raising the lightsaber with both hands, Chen Yu approached a nearby boulder. After a moment of hesitation, he executed a powerful downward slash!
Whoosh!
In the next moment, the lightsaber cut right through the boulder, bisecting it.
“I didn’t feel any resistance. The blade easily cut into the boulder,” Chen Yu commented as he adjusted his mask. Taking a step back, he pulled the lightsaber out of the boulder and powered it off. He then set aside the lightsaber and pushed the boulder with his hands.
Thud!
Thud!
The two halves immediately fell aside, their landing causing dirt and dust to rise up into the air.
Once the dust settled, Chen Yu had the camera zoom in on the boulder’s cut surfaces.
“They’re incredibly smooth…” Chen Yu exclaimed as he stroked the cut surfaces. “They feel like mirrors, honestly. I can’t feel any burrs at all. I really wish to remove my glove and feel the surfaces directly. However, I can’t afford to leave behind any fingerprints, so let’s forget it.”
Picking up the High-frequency Lightsaber again, Chen Yu stood up had the camera zoom out. He then continued, “The simple test is over. Everyone should now have a basic understanding of this lightsaber’s function. Next, I’ll conduct a more intense test to thoroughly measure this weapon’s performance.
“Firstly, let’s test its width adjustment.”
After saying so, Chen Yu powered up the lightsaber and pushed on the small b.u.t.ton located near the top of the hilt. “It’s quite tight, so I’ll need to use more strength.”
Buzz!
Along with Chen Yu’s fine-tuning, the originally slender blade gradually expanded.
Five centimeters.
Ten centimeters.
Twenty centimeters.
Fifty centimeters.
Eventually, the blade expanded up to a width of one meter…
[c.r.a.p…]
[You call this a sword?]
[Lightsaber (x); Lightwall (√)!]
[A slap from this thing, and you’ll disappear.]
[Why must you describe it using a “slap?”]
[Too awesome.]
[I don’t care whether the UP is an alien or someone from the future. I just want to see how many more mindblowing technologies he has to reveal.]
[I can’t bear to look at it. Such a lightsaber doesn’t look cool at all.]
[My mind is already imagining a scene where two fighters are dueling while wielding “lightwalls.”]
“Wow…” Chen Yu could not help but be amazed as he looked at the one-meter-wide lightsaber. “It can actually expand to such an extend. Amazing.
“Moreover, even after expanding it, the lightsaber’s weight did not increase at all. I can still freely swing it around. Now, let’s test whether the lightsaber’s lethality has been weakened due to its increased width.”
While saying so, Chen Yu raised the lightsaber and slapped it down at the split boulder before him.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh…
The two halves of the boulder vanished layer after layer. The vaporized layers transformed into dust that flew away along with the wind.
“Sure enough, the power has not diminished at the slightest. I still can’t feel any resistance when cutting through the boulder.”
Powering down the lightsaber, Chen Yu bent down and grabbed a handful of dust acc.u.mulated on the ground. Showing the dust to the camera, he said, “The dust is incredibly fine. Looking at this scene, I suddenly gained an idea. There should be no need for crushers in the future. Or maybe future crushers will come in the form of plasma cutters like this lightsaber.”
[So, am I to understand that you are waving a crusher around?]
[This thing should be equipped at garbage dumps.]
[UP, the whole world is getting increasingly unsettled.]
[Conclusion: The most significant advancement in future technology is that corpse disposal will become increasingly convenient.]
[My lord, times have changed.]
[Excalibur has angrily left the livestream room.]
[Give me one as well.]
Amidst the barrage of bullet comments, Chen Yu took several steps back and looked at the hilt in his hand. He then showed one side of the hilt to the camera, saying, “Can you see this stripe? This is the energy indicator. Under normal operation, the lightsaber is very energy-efficient. However, if the width is increased, the energy consumption will increase exponentially. This weapon is still in line with the law of conservation of energy.
“Next, we’ll test the limits of the length adjustment.”
As Chen Yu pushed down on another b.u.t.ton on the hilt, the plasma’s confinement gradually extended.
Two meters.
Five meters.
Ten meters.
Twenty meters.
Eventually, the blade extended up to 40 meters!
Compared to the lightsaber, Chen Yu, who wielded the weapon, looked no different than an ant, the scene looking incredibly disharmonious.
[c.r.a.p!]
[Sorry, but my vocabulary is lacking. c.r.a.p!]
[c.r.a.p!]
[WDF…]
[Isn’t that a little exaggerated?]
[How long is that? I can’t even see the end of it…]
[It looks like a 10-story building.]
[My lord, times have changed.]
[If you were to swing this thing in a downtown area…]
[For some reason, I feel that the UP can rule the world now.]
[Isn’t this length a little too much?!]
[Who said it was a women’s product just now?]
[Isn’t this an additional livestream? Is there a need to reveal such a mindblowing product?]
[Where do you live, host? Don’t get me wrong, I’m just thinking of dropping a nuke on you.]
[The livestream’s style has changed. The livestreams are becoming increasingly frightening now…]
“I…”
Chen Yu was at a loss for words as he looked at the 40-meter-long lightsaber.
“…Um… In regards to this product’s performance…I can only say: as expected of a weapon from the future. As a comparison, the degree of shock I am feeling now is akin to the shock ancient people would feel when seeing our modern nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, this is also one of my goals for conducting these reviews: to broaden everyone’s horizons.
“Now…” Raising the lightsaber, Chen Yu aimed it at the green mound before him and said, “Let’s test the limits of this lightsaber’s performance.”
As soon as Chen Yu said so, the ma.s.sive beam of light promptly descended onto the small hill.
Whoosh!
The small hill instantly split into two!
A smooth crack that was one meter in diameter could be seen running down the center of the hill…
[Nice!]
[Nice!]
[Nice!]
[Super nice!]
[Nice!]
[My pitiful worldview.]
[Mountain lovers strongly condemn this act.]
[Lumberjack: “Can I exchange my axe for your lightsaber?”]
[Mother Nature: “…”]
Slowly raising the 40-meter lightsaber, Chen Yu took in a deep breath and calmed his shocked heart.
“There is still no resistance. So long as the lightsaber has sufficient energy, I can disintegrate even Mount Everest. This thing is truly frightening.”
Raising the lightsaber up high to avoid hurting himself, Chen Yu turned around and looked at Little Peach, who had fallen into a slight daze. “Bring the thing over.”
“Oh! Yes!” Snapping out of her daze, Little Peach hurriedly ran out of the camera’s view.
“The energy consumption is significant. Now, only half of its energy remains. But no matter. It will be fully charged again if I leave it under the sun for half an hour, though this charging speed does feel a little wrong…” Straightening his mask, Chen Yu had the camera pull away from his location. “Through the three tests we’ve conducted, we discovered that the High-frequency Lightsaber’s performance remains the same regardless of its size. However, I am always of the opinion that all technology can be used in more ways than intended.
“Hence, when I received this lightsaber, I immediately got a smashing idea. Now that the livestream is coming to an end soon, let’s give this idea a test.”
After saying so, Chen Yu reached out and accepted the Spiral Ascending Aircraft Little Peach handed to him…
