I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 406
Chapter 406 – Altering Jupiter’s Moon
The four directions, above, and below were called the spatial axes, while the past, present, and future were called the time axes.
Louie who held the divine authority of time was equivalent to holding the time axis. Although time was of little significance to the immortal gods, it was something that mortals could never grasp or perceive in their entire lifetime.
Jupiter, about 700 million kilometers away from Earth, was the largest planet in the Solar System. Its mass was equal to 2.5 times the combined mass of the other planets in the Solar System, and it was a gas planet.
To reach Jupiter from Earth, with the level of Earth’s technology required a few years, even for light probes..
However, a magic pattern suddenly appeared in the orbit of Jupiter. It was a door, and what walked out from it was a man.
With his hands behind his back, he stood in the cosmic void and gazed with an arrogant and indifferent look at the gas giant.
The man’s size was less than a drop in the ocean compared to Jupiter’s size, but even so, this huge planet appeared rather small in front of the man’s presence. It wasn’t the man looking at Jupiter, but Jupiter looking at the man.
Because this man was not a mortal, but a true god!
“After all, it’s just a sphere made of hydrogen, helium, and other basic elements. There’s no mystery at all.”
The one who appeared was naturally Louie. He stood in the void of the universe but was strangely able to make a sound. With his inverted pupils, he captured the planet’s entirety.
“But being big also has its advantages. For a faith-based God, destroying such a huge sphere would take a lot of divine power and isn’t really worth it. Once I reach the level of the ancient gods of the past, let alone annihilating a planet, annihilating a galaxy wouldn’t be a problem.”
Louie shook his head. San Soliel’s current system ultimately had its limits. On the other hand, science and magic also had their limits.
For example, at the level of technology that the Terran Civilization possessed, destroying plants was as simple as eating. This wasn’t impossible for the gods, but the consumption required was too high.
On the other hand, reaching extreme celestial bodies like neutron stars and black holes would require the Terran Civilization’s significant technological means, but gods didn’t need anything.
Gods had the basic ability to survive in all environments. Neutron stars were akin to a kind of environment. No matter how extreme it was, everything was the same in the eyes of god. Even the concept of density and mass didn’t have much of an effect on them.
Louie walked in the endless space. He treated the gas giant as nothing. If he was still a demigod, he wouldn’t have been able to do this, but the difference between a demigod and a true god was simply that big.
Jupiter had seventy-nine moons, and powerful mages in the world of San Soliel were able to cross realms, so distance was not a problem as long as there were coordinates. With just a single step, Louie once again teleported and circled the entire planet once. From the seventy-nine moons of Jupiter, Louie chose the most suitable one.
“Well, this is a good moon.”
Louie brightened up and looked at one of Jupiter’s moons as if he was surveying a small fruit.
This moon was more than ten kilometers and less than twenty kilometers in diameter. Louie did not know its name, but he guessed that it should be a bit bigger than the meteor that wiped out the dinosaurs. If this thing hit Earth, then it could definitely create a crater that was more than 200 kilometers in size. It could not destroy Earth, but it could destroy its ecology and cause all life to go extinct.
He estimated that the blast of the meteor would reach the strength of billions of tons of TNT or more. The sharp increase in temperature was nothing to a god, but it was definitely a disaster for mortals.
For true gods, he had the means to destroy a planet without having to forcibly wipe out a planet.
“Let me transform you and send you to Earth.”
Louie looked with satisfaction at the giant rock floating in the universe. In a flash, he landed on the moon and constructed a spell with the power of god to transform it into the form he wanted.
Divine power was absolutely mighty and incredible. It was not difficult to free a satellite from Jupiter’s gravity, even if it was made to fly seven billion kilometers across the universe in a way that did not conform to the laws of physics.
There was no mystery involving moving objects from long distances. Only the ability to cross the walls between dimensions was incredible. The space-time wormholes that could allow one to cross dimensions could be called the pinnacle of the Terran civilization’s technology.
……
While Louie was getting ready for the next show and was transforming Jupiter’s moon, a port on the northwest coast had been set off-limits by the government since ten days ago. No journalist could find out what was happening no matter how much they poked around.
However, according to the recent frequency of supernatural events, many people began to think that this was related to supernatural events. This was closely discussed on the internet and people were clamoring for answers, but they could only make speculations. Before the government informed the people, the netizens could only rely on nonsense to make predictions.
At the mouth of the port, military vehicles came and went. They transported ordinary people who had received invitations from various countries to the Scottish port. According to the discussion of the governments, they finally decided to let the ‘lucky’ people from all over the world on a boat and have them be escorted by professional soldiers, to send them to the mysterious island.
In the beginning, people suggested planes, but this was ultimately rejected, as the governments thought that it was impossible to hide their actions from the eyes of the wizards, so the government did not want to cover it up but just hide it from the people for the time being. In the end, the choice was made to transport by sea.
A bus parked in the heavily guarded port. Some staff and armed police officers stepped out of the bus, followed by ordinary people with expectant and nervous faces. They looked around the scene which was like a military base. Several staff members whispered to them to relax.
Many countries had already arrived one after another with their national flags on their vehicles. The mysteries of the world might finally be unveiled in front of ordinary mortals through this event.
