Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 79: The Last Happy Time

Shen Shi was carefully observing the entire network’s reactions.

The astonishing press conference had just ended, but for most viewers who watched until the end, there was still a lingering sense of anticipation.

Because the Space Elevator was not their primary focus.

They were more interested in the surreal significance represented by the Space Elevator, as well as the true identity of the "Return Emperor," especially regarding where he returned from.

The speculation online was beginning to lean towards technology directions like "Alien" and "Future," with "Alien" becoming the most supported speculation.

After all, compared to the other guesses, this seemed more realistic.

Humanity has never proven the existence of alien civilizations, but neither has it proven their non-existence, so theoretically, the probability of aliens appearing in reality is not zero. This is why fantasy works in this field have remained popular over the years — though they are all fantasy, aliens can always be found to have a certain possibility.

And this was actually deliberately guided by Shen Shi.

The entire defense project did not require too many participants, but the project was also difficult to conceal.

He chose to shock the world in this way to give people more time to buffer.

This way, while building the Planet Fortress on a large scale, it won’t lead to panic.

It seems now that this has been preliminarily achieved. At the very least, most people already have the understanding that "Star Sea technology does not belong to Blue Star," and when they begin to accept and get used to this point, the arrival of alien invaders and war will not appear too shocking.

As for now.

Let them spend their final "happy" time in excitement and expectation.

Indeed, in Shen Shi’s view, people at this time are undoubtedly happy.

Because they are filled with anticipation for themselves and the world’s future.

This can also be seen from the feedback online.

From the information collected now, the most talked-about topics online are the speculation about his origins, and second is what kind of changes the appearance of Star Sea will bring to this era.

Some are excitedly expecting that they might soon be able to fly freely, have virtual reality, robot housekeepers, better medical technology, and more life-changing tech products, possibly even escaping the limits of lifespan!

The last item is undoubtedly the most anticipated!

In modern society with highly developed entertainment industries, human life expectancy has long been unable to keep up with human expectations. Without significant life pressure and with good health, they might still passionately enjoy various entertainment projects even at forty, fifty, or even sixty to seventy years old.

However, when Shen Shi saw the third trending topic, he couldn’t help but furrow his brows slightly.

— Doubt.

Indeed, among the current network discussion topics, doubt ranks third.

There is still a considerable number of people, especially those who don’t understand the entire event’s origin, haven’t finished watching, or haven’t watched the conference livestream, who expressed great doubts about this whole network craze.

"This is a century lie!"

Shen Shi saw a highly popular post like this.

"This lie is too outrageous!

I don’t understand why so many people believe this lie.

Yes, Star Sea Company’s achievements in information technology are undeniable, but in comparison, their accomplishments in physics are clearly inadequate!

Even a middle school student who paid attention in class would know that the essence of magnetism is the tilted component of electricity, the force exerted by a magnetic field on moving charges and currents within it! In other words, if that area was really filled with enough magnetism to make a person fly, the person would be done for the moment they stepped in, honestly, relying on magnetism to directly move the human body is absurd! Only ferromagnetic materials can be induced by a magnetic field to generate strong additional magnetic fields similar to the external magnetic field...

Thus, this is definitely special effects! It’s the biggest lie of the century crafted using powerful information technology!"

The entire post, with a passionate tone, strong emotions, and various scientific arguments, argued how scientifically ridiculous the Space Elevator shown in the press conference was, ultimately concluding it as a century lie.

Only —

"I never said that the force field channel of the Space Elevator is the ’magnetic field’ as humans currently understand it," Shen Shi sighed softly.

Such a Space Elevator doesn’t have a manual, but as a commonly used planetary transport channel in the Future World, one can find some content in the information database.

Sadly, among those documents, the only thing Shen Shi could understand was "utilizing the planet’s magnetic field to fix positions."

That’s why he had Wen Hezhi do an introduction.

But now it seems, some people misunderstood.

Yet, even without this, some people wouldn’t easily accept change, stubbornly rejecting everything without understanding.

However, when one has to exist in a rapidly changing new world, the most important thing is to be reverent towards the unknown and reality.

Shen Shi, nowadays, is exactly in this way.

Long before entering that black market, even when possessing the Time Crystal, he understood that this Cosmos, this reality, is far more mysterious than he used to know!

That’s why he made every effort to seize time, to understand the future, to learn knowledge—not to become a scientist, but merely to re-recognize this world.

Since Time Crystal exists, it means time can be grasped; since Jump Engine exists, it implies space is different from what he used to perceive; since Primordial Energy exists, it conveys consciousness has unimaginable power...

Facing such reality, he must accept and quickly understand it.

This applies to everyone.

Shen Shi helplessly shook his head.

But just as he was about to ignore the doubting post and look at other information, his eyebrows suddenly twitched.

Because the popularity of that post suddenly began to surge dramatically.

The author of the post launched a livestream titled "Live Debunking Star Sea!"

"Interesting."

Shen Shi immediately realized that the man in the image was on a yacht and very close to Star Sea Island!

Clearly, this post was probably meticulously prepared.

However, why was Shen Shi originally planning to ignore it?

Because even the most stubborn people cannot stop the tidal wave of this great change! No matter how seemingly reasonable the doubts are, they cannot question the reality right in front of them!
