Chapter 159: Shock! Frightening Fifth Livestream (3)
Chapter 159 – Shock! Frightening Fifth Livestream (3)
j.a.pan, Kyojima district, flatland:
After flying the camera back to himself, Chen Yu said, “It’s been one minute. Everyone should’ve gotten a clear look at this mechanical dinosaur. This, is the product we’ll be reviewing today. A metal behemoth from the future!
“I have also just received it, so I still don’t know its true name and purpose. Hence, everyone will get to explore its mysteries together with me from start to end.”
After saying so, Chen Yu picked up a stone from the ground and slammed it into one of the T-rex’s nails.
Clang!
The stone shattered immediately.
After patting the dust off his glove, Chen Yu looked at his work and found that he had failed to leave a single mark on the nail.
“It’s metal. While I don’t know what kind of metal, it is extremely hard. I’m not sure if everyone has noticed it or not, but this metal dinosaur looks a little strange. Its head, neck, chest, and abdomen are ma.s.sive, yet the feet supporting these ma.s.sive parts are relatively small.
“There are two explanations for this situation. One: there is a design flaw; Two: the strength of the unknown metal is astonishing, and the weight that we find to be an unimaginable burden is nothing to this metal.
“As this is a product from the future, I am more inclined to believe it is the latter.”
While speaking, Chen Yu had already arrived at the T-rex’s rear. He then ascended the stairs on the tail together with Little Peach.
“This is a pa.s.sage leading to the interior of the dinosaur. If there is an artificial intelligence key similar to the island-building ship, we can conclude that this is similarly an industrial machine. Otherwise, it is military equipment.
“Why? Because according to my limited understanding of the future, it seems that only military equipment is fully manually operated, while industrial equipment such as the island-building ship is fully managed by artificial intelligence.”
While Chen Yu gave his in-depth explanation, the two quickly ascended over 100 meters of stairs and entered the T-rex through its back. They then arrived inside a metallic hall.
The hall had a surface area of at least 500 square meters. There were pa.s.sages located on both sides of the hall, with the left pa.s.sage leading down, and the right pa.s.sage leading up.
“There’s a fork in the road. I think that the control room is located upstairs, so let’s head up first.”
[It’s fully metal! It looks much more powerful than any tank.]
[The lower compartment is for the crew. All large-scale equipment are separated this way.]
[The machine feels even bigger from the inside…]
The pa.s.sage on the right was like a winding mountain road that spiraled up the T-rex’s body. If one leaned against the railings and looked down, they would have a clear look at the T-rex’s interior’s complex mechanical structure.
“From what I’ve seen thus far, I think it is highly likely that this dinosaur is a piece of industrial equipment.” While walking, Chen Yu explained, “There are no blockades on the path leading to the machine’s interior. This is too reckless of a design if it is meant for military use. Enemies can easily sneak inside and destroy the machine. Unless, of course, this thing is like an aircraft carrier, where soldiers or tanks are stationed onboard. Also, look at the width of this pa.s.sage. Two tanks can easily move side-by-side here.”
After walking for three minutes, Chen Yu finally arrived at the end of the tunnel—a set of five-meter-tall metal doors!
There was a retro screen located in the middle of the gate, and below the screen was a b.u.t.ton in the shape of a T-rex’s head.
After exchanging looks with Little Peach, Chen Yu hesitantly stretched out his right arm and touched the b.u.t.ton.
Flicker!
The b.u.t.ton immediately lit up.
After waiting for a moment and finding nothing strange happening, Chen Yu decisively pushed down on the b.u.t.ton!
Click!
Boom… Boom… Boom…
The sounds of gears and hydraulic levers moving echoed throughout the pa.s.sage, and the metal doors slowly parted, revealing the internal environment.
The moment the doors parted, Chen Yu, Little Peach, and the two million viewers watching the livestream were momentarily dazzled!
Beyond the doors was a s.p.a.cious hall with ceilings over a dozen meters high and a surface area exceeding 400 square meters.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the hall was a ma.s.sive, curved gla.s.s, and through the gla.s.s, one could clearly see the outside world’s environment.
There was also a strange device set up in the middle of the gla.s.s. It resembled a petri dish commonly found in laboratories. Only, this petri dish had its size magnified by dozens of times. There was also a pale green liquid inside the petri dish, and bubbles even appeared from the bottom of the liquid…
With a face filled with shock, Chen Yu carefully entered the hall and observed his surroundings non-stop.
[Gundam! This is definitely a Gundam!]
[c.r.a.p! Amazing!]
[Awesome!]
[What’s the cylinder in the middle for?]
[Every part of this metal dinosaur gives off a sense of power.]
[A metal behemoth.]
[Did anyone else notice that the metal doors just now were opened via mechanical transmission? Why so retro?]
[This thing doesn’t look like it’s been designed by humans. It’s too crude.]
Amidst the rain of bullet comments of the five livestream rooms, Chen Yu made a circle around the hall and arrived before the “petri dish.” He then started closely inspecting the device.
“Everyone, it seems that this cylinder is the core part of this machine. Tsk, tsk. How mystical.”
Reaching out, Chen Yu touched the device’s control console. Immediately, an electronically synthesized sound appeared in the hall.
[Greetings, sir. Welcome to the Human Weapon Series’s Earth Landing Type-K Beast Armor.]
[Please register your iris information to establish the Human Weapon archive.]
[Please register the Commander’s iris.]
After the electronically synthesized voice said so, the projection of a human face appeared from the control console, the projection indicating for Chen Yu to “place” his head inside it.
“c.r.a.p! It’s actually a weapon?!” Chen Yu was shocked. “Judging by the name, this thing seems pretty amazing.”
[Please register the Commander’s iris.]
The electronically synthesized voice repeated.
After snapping out of his daze, Chen Yu hurriedly stepped forward and overlapped his head with the holographic projection.
[Registration complete. Do you wish to proceed with registering lower-level authorities?]
“No.”
[The archive is created.]
[Welcome, Commander.]
Boom… Boom… Boom…
The metallic doors of the room slowly shut, and rows of lights lit up inside the hall.
[Commander, is this your first time using the Earth Landing Type-K Beast Armor?]
“Yes.”
[The Human Weapon Series is part of the Offensive Military Machinery Program launched by the Harqiu Arms Company in 2330. The weapon series is divided into s.p.a.ce-based bombs, earth landing, and atmospheric cruise. The Type-K Beast armor belongs to a small branch of the earth landing category. It is mainly used for close combat and destruction of complex environments such as mountains, urban environments, plain environments, and polar environments.]
[The Type-K Beast Armor is made mainly out of high-carbon alloy steel. It is capable of resisting nuclear damage equivalent to 40 million tons of TNT. Under Earth’s gravity, its weight its 52,000 tons, maximum standing height is 135 meters, and installed power is 4,558,000 kilowatts. It also has a fluctuation generator installed inside to prevent damage from aim-based heat-ray weapons.]
[The Type-K Beast Armor’s primary method of attack is its tail sweep, which is capable of instantly destroying all buildings within 300 meters. It can execute a continuous sweep up to a maximum of 74 hours, effectively destroying important cities and industrial facilities. Fifty Type-K Beast Armor units can be grouped up to form a small impact array, causing even greater damage. If further paired with 12 Type-V Flying Armor units, they can form a defensive array…]
Although the electronically synthesized voice was still continuing with its introduction, Chen Yu and the livestream’s two million viewers had long since stopped listening to it. At this time, everyone had their mouths hung ajar and their minds in a mess…
At this moment, everyone only had one thought in their mind…
Just what had happened in the future?
…
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
At the same time, countless combat jets took to the skies all around the world.
Simultaneously, many s.p.a.ce satellites had also changed their orbits and focused their sights on the small Kyojima District.
Even the livestream’s two million viewers started behaving and no longer dared to send unscrupulous bullet comments…
Without anyone realizing it, a tense atmosphere slowly spread throughout the world…
