Chapter 332: Run Away? Send Them On Their Way

“How to flee with the Earth? Fit the Earth with an engine?

“You could also install a curvature engine.”

After the meeting, everyone shared their opinions.

Anyway, with Tang Rui’s start, everyone’s thinking began to focus on how to

escape.

In the end, it seemed that the only solution was to leave on a spaceship.

But how many spaceships can be built in ten months?

That’s hardly enough to take many people.

The meeting ended.

Tang Rui went to a small conference room to continue the meeting.

“How was my performance just now?” Tang Rui asked with a smile.

“Not bad, but is there really a solution to this disaster?” The bigwig from the

National Academy’s office knew the inside story, but he was still very worried.

“What’s the problem? It’s not like that black dwarf star is going to hit the Earth

or the sun directly. Why run away?

It’s just an issue with the orbital paths of planets within the solar system. As

long as we don’t directly confront it, it’s still solvable.”

Tang Rui said indifferently, what escape? That’s for others to worry about.

“Professor Tang, what’s the solution?”

“It’s simple, just shield the gravity. As long as the Earth is not affected by gravity, then this crisis won’t pose any danger to humanity.”

“Gravity shielding? Can it be done? But if Earth’s gravity is shielded, wouldn’t

Earth’s orbital path be affected too?”

“It’s complicated to explain. You can imagine, if the solar system is like a basin of water, and the black dwarf star is an iron ball about to fall into the basin.

“Normally, when the iron ball hits the water, it causes ripples. But if we place an upside-down glass in the basin, then even if the iron ball hits the water, the ripples won’t affect the water inside the glass.”

Tang Rui thought for a moment and gave an analogy.

Although this description wasn’t very accurate, they understood the general

idea.

They didn’t need to know the specific principles.

“Since Professor Tang is confident, then let’s proceed as planned,” the bigwig

from the National Academy’s office said.

“Guaranteed no problem.”

After the small meeting, Tang Rui left.

At this time, the whole world was buzzing.

News of the end of the world couldn’t be contained, too many people knew

about it.

After hearing the news, everyone was pessimistic.

It was unimaginable how humanity could solve this apocalyptic crisis, but

what could be done.

Of course, these were just ordinary people.

The high-level officials of various countries started making phone calls.

An American consortium called Tang Rui, thinking of a spaceship or rather, a ticket for a spaceship.

Any conditions would do.

They agreed to any conditions.

Tang Rui didn’t talk to these consortium people, telling them to negotiate with

Lin Chao instead.

That night.

Li Shuyao came home and asked about the impending doomsday, wanting to know if there was any hope for humanity.

“Don’t worry, there’s absolutely no problem.”

Tang Rui didn’t say much, after all, only a few people knew about this plan.

He couldn’t tell Li Shuyao the specifics.

If she accidentally revealed it.

That would be a big problem.

Right, we’re not thinking of running away, we’re just thinking of sending you on your way, can this be said?

In the following days.

The world was in chaos.

Complete chaos.

It was better inside our country, but not so much abroad.

But even in such a situation, the United Nations was still arguing.

The only issue being discussed was the construction and allocation of spaceship seats.

The core components of the spaceship could only be made by the Deep Red Company and were in short supply.

Plus, with limited time, there were too few spaceships, not enough to go around.

In the end.

Our side came up with a plan.

Since it’s about running away, let’s not be too picky, just turn it into hibernation pods, and everyone can go into hibernation.

Tang Rui simply modified the transport ship.

He transformed the positions where containers should be hung on the keel into hibernation pods, allowing one ship to take a million people away.

If the space elevator could be built in three months, coupled with the global industrial capacity to manufacture other parts of the spaceship, then in ten months, about 20 spaceships could be built.

In this way, government departments and wealthy people from various countries, along with their families, could all safely depart.

Once this plan was proposed, everyone agreed.

As long as they could evacuate, that was all that mattered.

What happened to the rest didn’t concern them.

At this moment, the world truly cooperated without reservation.

Tang Rui, in his laboratory, was busy assembling equipment while browsing the American core database.

If it weren’t for the end of the world, he wouldn’t have had access to the contents of this database, even if the United States took it to the grave.

“America has some depth, not a few tricks up its sleeve,” Tang Rui muttered to himself, looking at the information.

Unfortunately, it was of little use.

“Red Lotus, inform the Americans to send over that piece suspected to be alien wreckage.”

“Okay, Master, Red Lotus will inform them right away.”

In less than a day, America’s treasured and most hidden assets were delivered

to Tang Rui.

It was a metal fragment, definitely not of earthly origin.

But what exactly it was a remnant of was hard to say.

Tang Rui used metal analysis equipment to attempt to reverse-engineer its composition but to no avail.

This meant the fragment’s manufacturing technology surpassed nano-level atomic layers, a higher-level technology.

“Red Lotus, store it in the safe, we’ll research it later,” Tang Rui said casually.

Now was not the time to study it.

He was truly out of time.

From now on, he would be immersed in the lab, continuously making various devices.

No choice.

For the sake of the source point, he had no other option.

Tang Rui secluded himself at home, undisturbed by anyone.

The outside situation was somewhat controlled.

Each country had its experts.

Under the analysis of think tanks, the countries unified their statements, revealing the solution.

That was to use antimatter bombs.

Humanity could extract antimatter, but it was resource-intensive and couldn’t be stored for long.

But most people knew of antimatter’s existence.

Although the black dwarf star was hard, antimatter didn’t care. Upon impact with the black dwarf, matter-antimatter annihilation would occur.

Using this pretext, the countries managed to calm the situation.

Then, the world began frantically manufacturing parts for spaceships.

No country tried to cheat.

The previous squabbles between countries vanished.

The human community with a shared future was truly realized, albeit only for a few short months..
