Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 75: This Is the Space Elevator

Because this absolutely isn’t something that the current Blue Star could possess! At least not something most people in known reality could possess! free𝑤ebnovel.com

That’s why people are so shocked and so excited!

Reality has been disrupted, and as long as it’s not a huge disaster, this is the reaction most people would have!

Because the original reality truly had too many flaws.

Poverty, accidents, disease, monotony... almost no miracles!

Most people long for fantasies to become reality, especially a more beautiful fantasy!

At this moment, the symbolic meaning brought by this floating cylinder might even surpass its actual function!

However, Wen Hezhi did not forget his task, even though he was equally shocked by this miraculous scene, after all, he knew Shen Shi’s identity and had even seen "Aliens" with his own eyes.

He quickly recovered his mental state.

"As you can see, this is the first product we at Star Sea Company are launching, the portable Space Elevator!" Wen Hezhi looked at the text directly projected onto his retina and truly spoke like a product spokesperson, explaining the product’s features. "Unlike traditional space elevators, this one doesn’t require a ground base for fixation. It carries a powerful magnetic effect itself and can fix itself in a relative position on the planet using the planet’s magnetic field!"

Before he could even finish his sentence, the information flow in the channel exploded once again.

Even when cut down ten thousand times, it was dazzling.

"Awesome! Though I totally don’t understand it!"

"A portable space elevator? What a rustic name, fixed position through planetary magnetic fields? What on earth?"

"I’m a doctoral student specializing in high-energy physics, and I feel like I’m reading a science fiction novel!"

"This is special effects, right? Impossible to be real!"

"God, this is true future technology!"

"Who cares about this! We want to see the Return Emperor! We want to see the time machine!"

"..."

For the vast majority of the audience, they just felt that this thing was amazing, completely surpassing reality. But for those who had a bit of understanding, especially the many scientists who were also watching the livestream, they were utterly bewildered.

For example, in a military base in the Western Alliance, a middle-aged white man in the lead, wearing a black suit and sporting a beer gut, was closely watching the assembled group of scientists below him.

"Have you found out anything?" he asked aloud.

The people below were arguably the top scientists of humanity, but at this moment, they were looking at each other, eyes blank, faces filled with existential doubt.

After a while, a professor wearing glasses finally spoke up:

"It might be some device using the planet’s magnetic field as propulsion, but I think it’s more of an internal planetary flying shuttle rather than a space elevator."

With this opening, the rest of the scientists also began to speak.

"Yes, maybe it’s some device that enhances magnetic effects."

"Just don’t know how much it can carry, what the power source is."

"I still feel like I’m dreaming, this completely surpasses our understanding of field energy. Even if we were given the detailed full set of technology, it would be like reading a book in an unknown language... the gaps are too many, too vast."

The last scientist’s words garnered much agreement.

What they said earlier was more speculation from the perspective of "science fiction enthusiasts" rather than analysis from a top scientist’s perspective.

Because in front of such things, they weren’t much different from science fiction enthusiasts who had an outsider’s knowledge of technology.

The middle-aged man who spoke could only remain silent upon seeing this.

Although they were somewhat prepared, this was clearly not the outcome they hoped to see.

"Then let’s continue watching," he said.

Meanwhile, in the scene, the truck that seemed useless had already driven away, leaving only the steadily floating cylinder in midair, and Wen Hezhi was walking toward it step by step.

"I think everyone is probably curious about how this thing is used." He raised his hand, clapping it several times.

It looked forceful, but there was no sound, and the cylinder showed no sign of wobbling.

It seemed as if it was really fixed in that space, as stable as a mountain.

"Is it used to carry people and cargo up there? Or is it to catapult people upward?" Wen Hezhi laughed, "If so, it wouldn’t be called a space elevator, rather a space shuttle or transport aircraft."

When this sentence was spoken, the scientist who thought the device should be called a flying shuttle immediately blushed.

Because he really thought so.

However, nobody laughed at him at that moment because they were all in the same boat.

All they could do was guess! And guess deeply!

They watched the Eastern Country person in the scene closely.

Wen Hezhi’s voice slightly elevated: "That’s right, right now, it is merely in its activated state, without having fully extended the ’elevator passage.’ But soon, you will all see what a true ’stairway to heaven’ looks like."

As his words fell, he started to steadily retreat.

Until he stood almost at the edge of the clearing.

He raised his arm and swung it heavily.

"Deploy the passage!"

This sentence, like some sort of launch command, caused the black cylinder with patterns to silently split in two.

The lower part remained tightly about ten centimeters tall, while the larger upper part slowly ascended and, in the process, rotated and misaligned like an extremely complex mechanical substitute, vaguely appearing to be composed of countless small cubes!

This scene with immense visual effects stirred excitement among all viewers involuntarily.

This is not special effects; this is reality!

Then in the next moment, as if with a roar, that separated larger part shot skyward!

Everyone could clearly see a steady stream of small cubes falling from it, expanding, and then anchoring themselves firmly about a meter apart in mid-air, continuously extending with the main body shooting skyward!

In front of everyone’s eyes, forming a long, straight yet bizarre line made of separated cubes!

Is this, the Space Elevator?

Everyone was drawn to this divine and wondrous scene.

Wen Hezhi’s voice resurfaced.

"The entire space elevator is made of one base and one million independent field energy units. They interact and connect to form a powerful, force field passage that directly reaches space! As you can see, the passageway is not small, and if someone steps into it..."

Wen Hezhi took a step forward.

Then he jumped slightly.

In front of the camera, his body flew up!
