Chapter 85 – Tool, No; Weapon, Yes! (2)
After Chen Yu pushed the power button, a blinding light suddenly appeared in the Weather Control Module’s groove!
Three seconds later, the light disappeared, leaving behind only a light-blue holographic projection.
Swiping his hand across, Chen Yu actually felt a sense of coldness when his fingers came into contact with the hologram as if it was a physical object.
“Huh? Interesting.”
After swiping his hand across the hologram a few times, Chen Yu picked up a pebble from the ground and tried placing it on the hologram. To his surprise, even after he had let go of the pebble, it remained still on the hologram!
“Amazing! This hologram is physical? What principles does it operate by?”
[Light is a type of electromagnetic wave, and electromagnetic waves are a kind of gravitational wave. Gravity will attract matter to gather, so... I give up. I can’t continue making things up.]
[Just settle with an ‘Amazing!’]
[With such quality special effects, why not just shoot a movie? Isn’t it better to try and save the domestic film industry?]
[I seriously suspect this livestream is fake!]
[Stop the slandering. I only wish to see a comet falling on the land of freedom.]
[Weathering With You warning!][1]
While the bullet comments were flooding the livestream rooms, Chen Yu tossed aside the pebble and stopped caring about scientific principles that he currently could not comprehend. Following the instruction manual’s operating procedure, he clicked on the general weather menu.
“The details of this product are ridiculous. I won’t be messing with the parameter adjustment mode, though, as it is too dangerous. Who knows what kind of chain reaction would occur if I lowered the temperature by an extra degree, or increased the humidity by a little more. So, we will only use the default idiot mode.”
After saying so, Chen Yu lifted his head and looked at the clear sky above him. He then continued, “I am currently somewhere near Thailand’s Bangkok[2], but I don’t know the exact location. Everyone can see that the weather is sunny. Now, I’ll let you all decide what kind of weather I should bring to this place. We’ll decide by majority vote.”
As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, the number of bullet comments being sent to the livestream rooms skyrocketed!
Moreover, the audience’s opinions were surprisingly unified.
[Comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
Chen Yu: “...”
[UP, although I’m at Bangkok right now, please choose comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
[Comet impact.]
[If even comets are considered a type of weather, nuclear bombs should be entered into the same category.]
[Are you looking down on my hydrogen bomb?]
[Big Ivan: No comment. I’ll just watch.][3]
[Comet impact...]
Lowering his watch, Chen Yu shrugged and said, “I gave you guys an opportunity, but you didn’t cherish it. I’ll choose then.”
After finding a suitable sitting posture, he took a deep breath and pressed down on the hologram’s first button—Sunny.
Pzz— Pzz— Pzz—
The instant the holographic button bounced back up, the Weather Control Module’s central antenna suddenly released a streak of blinding light into the sky!
Afterward...
“...”
“...”
“...”
Clap!
Abruptly clapping his hands together, Chen Yu pointed at the sky and said, “Amazing, right?! It’s sunny now!”
[...]
[Message deleted.]
[Message deleted.]
[Fairly speaking, it is indeed sunny.]
[Support! Banzai! There’s hope!]
[Everyone, be considerate. The UP might be short of funds.]
[What a shame!]
[Today’s livestream ends here. We’ll meet again next time.]
Looking at the audience’s reaction, Chen Yu adjusted his mask and chuckled, “That was just a joke to lighten up the mood. Next, it’s time to witness a true miracle!”
After saying so, Chen Yu’s index finger, which was originally pointed at the sky, descended and pressed down on the holographic button labeled “light snow.”
Pzz— Pzz— Pzz—
In the next moment, a dazzling streak light shot out from the central antenna and into the sky, the light causing clouds to gather above Chen Yu and superimpose on each other at a frightening rate...
The sky rapidly darkened.
The sudden drop in temperature caused the surrounding bats to scatter.
In just 10 short seconds, a shocking change had occurred to the area Chen Yu was present in, the scene resembling the Armageddon typically depicted in movies.
[???]
[?????]
[¿]
[Can someone give me an explanation?]
[I’m here again, and I’m still as uncultured as before! Crap!]
[Crap!]
[Crap+1!]
[I’ll repeat this again; this is definitely not a special effect! No company in existence can produce this level of real-time special effects!]
[I’m living in Si Racha that’s close to Bangkok. The sky really did suddenly become cloudy...]
[That gave me a scare.]
[Bullet comment actors, please withdraw. The national mountaineering team has already exposed the UP during the previous livestream.]
[All actors and their families will die!]
[You are all my family!]
[I just arrived. Should I start cursing immediately?]
[My son still can’t write.]
[Can you guys stop with the bullet comments?! I can’t even see the livestream anymore, idiots!]
[It’s actually snowing in Bangkok...]
Amidst the chaotic dispute in the bullet comment section, the first snowflake fell on Chen Yu’s mask, followed by the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth snowflakes as well... Meanwhile, under his body’s “scorching” temperature, these snowflakes melted and formed a streak of flowing water.
As he felt his body cooling down, Chen Yu suddenly gained some understanding.
It was the understanding of the nature of science.
However, with his literary talent, it was too difficult for him to adequately describe this profound and complicated understanding.
Hence, he could only simplify his understanding into one word–Amazing.
“Truly amazing.”
Shaking his head and sighing, Chen Yu stretched out his index finger and pressed on the “Moderate Snow” button.
...
“????????????...” (Thai: Impossible.)
Seated on the passenger seat of a military jeep, Zongravimon stretched his right hand out of the opened window amidst the bumpy ride and touched the falling snowflakes in a daze.
Thailand’s Bangkok was located south of the Chao Phraya River. It was thoroughly situated in a tropical monsoon climate. The city was hot all year round, with the annual average temperature being over 27 degrees Celsius.
However, such a place was actually snowing right now...
Withdrawing his hand, Colonel Zongravimon wore a gloomy face as he turned toward the driver and asked, “?????????????????????????????????” (How far are we from our destination?)
Adjusting his military cap, the driver replied, “8????????.” (Eight kilometers.)
Hearing this, Zongravimon subconsciously tightened his grip on the gun hung around his waist.
Eight kilometers. With their mobile unit’s speed, it would take no more than five minutes before they would meet with that mysterious person.
This operation’s importance was extremely high, and even the military’s head honchos were paying attention to it in real-time.
If not for his unit being stationed the closest toward the target, he wouldn’t have been left with such a vital operation.
“Hu...”
Zongravimon took in a deep breath. Despite the low temperature outside the car, he did not feel cold at the slightest. On the contrary, sweat poured out from all over his body, soaking his military uniform.
“The higher-ups’ instructions are to maintain a cordial attitude with the other party. If the other party refuses to cooperate, however, we may take more coercive measures...” the driver said.
“Coercive measures? Are they crazy?”
Upon accepting the Si Racha mission, Zongravimon had immediately watched all of Transdimensional Review’s past videos. However, when he was done watching them, he felt as if the Grim Reaper’s scythe was already resting on his neck.
The target they were dealing with was a mysterious person that they had barely any information on. Who knew how many terrifying weapons their target possessed? Yet, the higher-ups wanted them to take coercive measures?
Were they trying to make the other party create a massacre, and then die from guilt?
Or had his mobile unit become a lab rat under the nation’s control...
Further tightening his grip on his gun, Zongravimon pulled out his personal mobile phone and sent a short farewell message to his distant wife. He then powered down his phone.
He was but a minor character in the military. He did not understand the politics happening among the upper echelon of the nation or the world. However, he knew very clearly what kind of horrors were present in that “vortex.”
Hence, he knew that he was powerless to resist his orders.
He could only hope for that mysterious person to be cooperative...
“Sir!”
Three minutes later, the driver suddenly pointed at a corner and shouted, “I see it!”
Startled, Zongravimon immediately turned to the direction the driver pointed at.
Sure enough, what entered his eyes was a huge metal arch standing between mountains and forests...
