Chapter 264: Divine Elegance!
Chapter 264 – Divine Elegance!
“You Russians… Are you nuts?” Chen Yu held his forehead in agony. “You knew we were going to launch into space, yet you didn’t think to put a parachute on this thing? Are we one-time astronauts?”
“W-We…” The old Russian engineer hesitantly said, “You can freely fly into space and dig into the earth, so we never thought landing the capsule would be a problem.”
Chen Yu: “…”
[Oh! It’s over!]
[Lololol!]
[It’s another livestream disaster! Wait, why did I say ‘another’?]
[Who said they were willing to die for this trip just now? Is it worth it now?]
[I shouldn’t laugh at others’ misfortune, but I really can’t help but laugh, ahahaha…]
[The missing parachute problem will be difficult to solve.]
[They’re just a bunch of actors. This is definitely something planned for the show. Do you think the UP is an ordinary person?]
[Look at that Japanese girl! The smile on her face disappeared, ahahaha!]
[You bunch of demons! Please increase your efforts.]
Inside the space capsule, upon hearing Chen Yu’s conversation with the old engineer, everyone’s expression instantly turned ugly.
“H-Host, can you resolve this problem?” the blond, burly man from the bullet comment group asked nervously.
“Everyone, please calm down. There is no need to worry.” Chen Yu raised his hands and tried to calm everyone’s emotions. “In the event of an accident, compensation will be paid within seconds.”
Everyone: “…”
Everyone’s panic immediately disappeared and turned into…fear.
The Japanese girl named CC178 even burst into tears.
After he had appeased the group, Chen Yu looked toward the Russian engineer and asked in detail, “If there isn’t a parachute, is there a propulsion system?”
“Yes!” The old engineer nodded and pointed at an instrument panel. “The capsule can spray gas around to adjust its posture.”
“…Nothing else?”
“Nothing else.”
“As if that’s of any use!”
Meanwhile, after hearing all of this, the young clinician pushed against his glasses and pulled out a syringe filled with anesthetic fluid. He then decisively injected himself with it…
After seeing the rapidly increasing altitude displayed in his helmet, Chen Yu grew slightly anxious and started pacing around the capsule a few times. He then looked toward Musk and asked, “Do you have any suggestions?”
“No,” Musk answered as he tried his best to calm himself. “The pressure difference between the inside and outside is too large. You can’t exit the cabin. Does the launchpad have a supporting landing function?”
“No.” Chen Yu shook his head. “The product’s introduction has clearly stated that the Earth Spray is only responsible for launch operations. Once the capsule enters space, the Earth Spray will no longer interfere with it. Moreover, although my terminal can connect with the Earth Spray’s terminal across long distances, its operation is irreversible once started. Our only choice is to adjust the capsule’s posture and have it deviate from the projected orbit.”
“But even if we exit the water column’s range…” Biting his lip, Musk said, “We will never survive a fall from 90,000 meters.”
“It’s you guys,” Chen Yu corrected. “I’ll be fine.”
“I’ll be fine as well,” Little Peach added.
Everyone: “…”
[(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻]
[Tsk, tsk, tsk. Did they expend all of their luck?]
[Their luck got sucked away by us.]
[Happy New Year! Like it?]
[This is a lesson to be learned! Don’t send bullet comments during the next lottery.]
[Yes. Leave the opportunity to people like us who deserve death!]
“Rest assured.” Stretching out his hands, Chen Yu patted Musk on his shoulders and said, “Even if an accident occurs, no delay will come to the Mars colonization plan.”
“Thank you very much.”
“You’re welcome.”
Chen Yu leaned against the window, his brain spinning quickly as he gazed at the blue planet outside. He then pointed at the dial representing the oxygen index in the capsule and asked, “Aside from the oxygen meter, is there a more accurate gas meter?”
“Yes.” The old engineer hurriedly opened a small metal panel and said, “It’s inside.”
Stepping forward, Chen Yu squinted his eyes and looked around, “Is this the main gas valve?”
“Yes.”
“Can you empty it?”
“Empty it?” Startled, the engineer muttered, “A-Are you trying to…”
“Yes.” Pointing at the lid above everyone’s heads, Chen Yu said, “Match the gas pressure with the atmospheric pressure outside. Once the air pressure is gone, I can go out. So long as I can go out, we will have countless solutions.”
“Emptying the gas inside the capsule is possible, but…” Hesitantly, the old engineer said, “Depressurizing the capsule and opening the hatch will put ordinary people like us in danger.”
“So long as I act quick enough…” Chen Yu started inspecting his protective suit. “Danger won’t have time to react.”
After saying so, Chen Yu put his hand on the red valve and asked, “Is this it?”
“Y-Yes…” The old man stepped backward. “If you must depressurize the capsule, turn off the oxygen circulation system first. Otherwise, the capsule will continue to produce oxygen.”
“Where are you going? Don’t leave. You do it.”
In response, the old engineer briefly turned around and swept his gaze across everyone in the capsule. He then turned back to Chen Yu and said, “I-In that case, please try to act as quickly as possible.”
“It’s not a big problem. Don’t panic. Only by putting up a fight will you have a chance of surviving. However, if you sit here and do nothing, our altitude will only continue to increase. Eventually, you won’t even have a chance of surviving.”
Waving his hand, Chen Yu approached the space capsule’s center. He then jumped up, grabbed the hatch’s handle, and looked down at the group below. “Everyone, crouch down. Take a few more breaths and fill your body with oxygen. Afterward, calm down and hold your breaths.”
Hearing this, everyone immediately crouched down and desperately inhaled.
“Stop the oxygen! Discharge the gas!” Chen Yu commanded.
Pff…
However, before the old man could push the button, the participant with the ID Crazed Awakening released a “long-toned” fart.
“Uu…”
Everyone promptly backed away from Crazed awakening, complex expressions appearing on their faces as they hesitated on whether they should continue breathing or not.
However, Crazed Awakening seemingly did not mind the situation as the university teacher continued inhaling deeply in the hopes that he could add even a little bit more oxygen to his body.
[Dammit! He’s too elegant!]
[My scalp is tingling…]
[This is a king.]
[There are always some bigshots who are capable of things beyond my reach.]
[Hello? 110? There’s a pervert here.]
[LOLOLOL!]
Pff~
Pff~ Pff~
Crazed Awakening continued farting one time after another. He sucked in air from the front and released air from the rear, creating an endless cycle.
After silently staring at the university teacher for some time, Chen Yu finally couldn’t help but speak, “Great Sage, please stop with your magic.”
“Huh?” Crazed Awakening put on a confused expression. “D-Didn’t you tell me to discharge gas?”
Immediately, Chen Yu’s expression darkened as he shouted, “Shut your mouth!”
Crazed Awakening hurriedly covered his mouth.
“I’m referring to the one below.”
Crazed Awakening: “…’
Turning to the old engineer, Chen Yu waved his hand and said, “Stop the oxygen! Discharge the gas!”
“Okay.”
Hiss—
The moment the old engineer pressed the button on the main gas valve, the space capsule rapidly discharged the air inside it to the outside. In no time at all, a partial vacuum environment formed inside the capsule.
Meanwhile, not only did the people inside the capsule lose the ability to breathe, but they also started suffering from altitude sickness, such as the swelling of body parts.
Understanding that he had no time to lose, without even waiting for the capsule’s air pressure to balance with the atmospheric pressure outside, he undid his buckle and pushed against the hatch with both hands.
Creak…
The sound of metal “screaming” echoed inside the capsule and grated at everyone’s ears.
Hiss!
Boom!
A second later, the capsule’s hatch opened under Chen Yu’s tremendous strength.
Simultaneously, a strong gust made of thin atmosphere rushed into the capsule!
