Give Douluo a technological shock
Page 131
With Wang Lang's ignition command, the nuclear Ark Engine inside the thruster beneath the Damocles satellite was instantly ignited. A large amount of scorching high-energy particle stream surged out from the nozzle below, and the sudden burst of powerful reaction force propelled the Damocles system upwards little by little.
A massive wave of intense heat swept towards the surrounding crowd, but the prepared Snow Empress easily wiped it away with a slight wave of her hand. Thus, everyone watched as the enormous metal structure slowly rose into the air, gradually accelerating until it shrank in their sight and disappeared completely as a black dot.
Jin Lin and Ye Kongtian followed suit, escorting the spacecraft until it reached the stratosphere safely before stopping.
At this moment, images of the accelerating flight, captured by the Damocles satellite, began to be projected above Star City.
All the people and beasts in Star City stopped what they were doing, went outside, and quietly watched the projection high in the sky.
The image captured by the Damocles satellite is divided into two parts: one part shows the gradually darkening sky, and the other part shows the Star Dou City, Star Dou Great Forest, and Douluo Continent gradually shrinking in size.
This may be the first time they have seen the entirety of their city, the entire forest, or even the entire continent.
The realm of gods, the divine domain of the god of craftsmen.
"Did he cross the line?"
"The god of criminal law has been abolished, the old rules should have been abolished long ago, and there is no such rule in the current regulations."
“There are no regulations, but I’m worried that some guys might use this as an excuse to make trouble.”
"It's just the right to interpret regulations, don't worry, curiosity is a good thing."

Chapter 163: The sky of Xingdou is somewhat similar to the sky of Douluo Star...
As the space-based satellite codenamed Damocles began its entry into near-Earth orbit, its propulsion system automatically detached, then re-entered the gravitational pull of Douluo Star. Finally, propelled by the residual energy, it was perfectly recovered by the two individuals waiting in the stratosphere. This demonstrates the potential of humanity in the extraordinary world: human power surpassing technology, with terrifyingly powerful results.
The Damocles space-based satellite, having separated from its thrusters, activated its internal small thrusters, slowly approaching a near-Earth orbit capable of maintaining gravitational balance. Upon reaching its designated position, the spherical metal satellite began to transform. Its four originally retracted wings unfolded sequentially, ultimately revealing a symmetrical four-winged structure connected by a long metal pillar in the center, with a ring-shaped main body, resembling a fidget spinner with small wings, silently moving through the unpredictable and lifeless expanse of space.
Once the stars below had completely stabilized the Damocles satellite's control system, a huge and lifeless star map was revealed before people under the illumination of a dazzling giant fireball, along with a streak of light.
Wow! A shooting star!
"Is this what the outside world is like?"
"Dad, look! That fireball is the sun we learned about in our textbooks!"
My God! There really are heavens beyond heavens!
"This...this can't be an illusion specifically designed to fool us, can it?"
"You little Karami, who would be willing to spend so many resources to fool you? Hmm, little girl, you look unfamiliar."
"If the mainland is a sphere, wouldn't the other end fall off?"
"Where did you come from, you idiot? Gravity!"
Why are you swearing?
"I feel like I've wasted the last few hundred thousand years of my life."
"Shut up! You useless worm that's raising the average age of the stars!"
"."
As Damocles' camera gradually shifts, people see a more vast world, silent and lifeless, yet its awe-inspiring power is unparalleled.
In these images, they saw for the first time that the sun was enormous, yet still tiny against the dark backdrop of the universe. They also learned that the sun truly exists and has a specific location, transforming from an untouchable figment of imagination into a tangible reality. Furthermore, as the camera moved further, they discovered the mysterious moon, also a sphere!
Tang Ya, standing in the crowd, strained to look up at the clear projection in the sky, her face blank. Although she kept telling herself it was fake, that this person had conspired with a large group to deceive these ignorant people, the harsh reality told her that most of the Star People would rather believe the world was a sphere than believe Chen Fu was deceiving them. Some even went so far as to claim the sun and moon were spheres—such idiotic statements were actually made by some.
"Stupid!"
With a sudden cry, tears streamed down her face. Tang Ya glared at the child who had insulted her, her face full of grievance, wishing she could slap him across the face right then and there.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! I'm very sorry, Miss Tang. My son is straightforward and doesn't know how to be tactful. Please forgive him." Cao Mu, who was standing next to the child, was also startled by his child's bluntness. He quickly pulled him back and apologized to Tang Ya.
But instead of apologizing, the apology made Tang Ya cry even harder. What does "being straightforward" mean? What does "not knowing how to be tactful" mean? Isn't this just blatantly saying that she's an idiot?
"Aman, apologize quickly!" Seeing that things seemed to be getting worse, Cao Mu had no choice but to wink at Aman.
"Okay." Aman walked up to Tang Ya with a displeased look, then bowed deeply and apologized, "I'm sorry, sister, I misspoke. You're not an idiot, you're a moron! A big moron!"
"Wow!" Tang Ya was so angry that she wanted to give this brat a Blue Silver Wrap right there and then, but she didn't dare. She was so angry that she felt like she was seeing stars and could hardly breathe.
Cao Mu, who was standing nearby, quickly pulled his son away, and before leaving, he gave a wink to the somewhat bewildered Bei Bei.
Aman was pulled away, but she didn't forget to turn back and say defiantly, "If you're not satisfied, you silly sister, come find me in the Engineering Academy's Junior Class. My name is Cao Man!"
"Ah! You're dead, kid!"
The starry sky is dazzling and vast, lonely yet beautiful, but...
Chen Fu looked down at a screenshot in his hand. It was a frame from a video taken by the Damocles satellite when its camera was turned toward the sun. The black starry sky and the orange sun formed a strong contrast. The dark starry sky and the blazing sun met each other in the field of vision, and a somewhat discordant white streak appeared between the two.
"What are you looking at?" Electrox noticed Chen Fu's actions and leaned closer to see what Chen Fu was looking at. He discovered that the image Chen Fu was looking at, when viewed from the perspective of the Damocles satellite, was a twinkling meteor that flashed past the sun out of alignment. Electrox didn't understand why Chen Fu kept looking at this.
"Sigh," Electrolux then saw Chen Fu sigh quietly, but he couldn't tell what Chen Fu was thinking.
"Did you find anything?"
Electrolux had just asked with a serious expression when Chen Fu suddenly said with a smile, "Although this little universe is a bit dark, it's still quite lively outside."
Based on the images captured by the Damocles satellite so far, this basic solar system appears somewhat monotonous, with only the Sun and Moon currently discovered. Other planets may be discovered in the future, but Chen Fu believes that the chances are slim, because the god-king of this microcosm is somewhat blind.
"Turn around, there's nothing to see in the starry sky anymore. Let's look at our planet." After speaking to Electrolux, Chen Fu gave the order to Wang Lang and the others who were trying to control the Damocles satellite to look around.
"Yes, Dean." Having received the instructions, the group began to adjust the flight attitude of the Damocles little by little, and then gradually shifted their view to Douluo Star.
As they gradually moved the satellites around, Electrolux subtly transmitted his voice to Chen Fu: "Any discoveries? On the technological side?"
Although he only had a superficial understanding of technology and there were many things he couldn't understand, he knew that Chen Fu must have discovered something in his area of expertise.
Chen Fu didn't speak, but smiled and pointed to the sky above Xingdou, then pointed to the star projection above, and said with a smile, "I just feel that the sky above Xingdou is a bit similar to the sky above Douluo Star."
Upon hearing this, Electrolux's expression immediately turned serious. "Is that really the sky above the stars?!"
Chapter 164: A New World?!
"Don't think too much about it, Xiao Yi. We're just gradually discovering the truth, so there's no need to worry too much."
Chen Fu reminded Electrolux to take it easy, as momentary emotions cannot solve practical problems.
Moreover, "New things mean new risks, but they also represent new directions for development, at least for our Star Dou." To prevent Electrox from overthinking, Chen Fu added, "The cosmic frontier of this kind of stellar microcosm is beyond our current reach. Perhaps we will need to unite with some people to take a look. The most urgent task is to figure out how to completely forge Douluo Star into a true civilization."
"Yes, I understand." After hearing Chen Fu's words, Electrolux's serious expression softened considerably. He didn't quite understand the worldview of the Science Department, but seeing Chen Fu say this meant that even if the current universe's starry sky and the starry sky were both fake, that wasn't the important issue.
Besides, even if the sky falls, there will always be someone taller to hold it up. The young man in front of you will be the one who dies the fastest, since Electrox is still just a kid, right?
"Look, the earth we are on, viewed from the position of the stars, is a deep blue. Create a new layer and hide some things."
As the Damocles satellite gradually shifted its perspective to Douluo Star in its near-Earth orbit, a predominantly blue planet slowly came into view. Just as Chen Fu glanced up and saw the edge of the planet, before she could even speak to Electrolux, she gave a command to [Azure] in her mind.
Silently, the virtual projection above Star City underwent subtle changes without anyone's knowledge. Tang Ya wasn't wrong; Chen Fu could indeed use technology to create "illusions" to deceive everyone's eyes, but generally it wasn't necessary. However, Chen Fu now felt it was.
As the Damocles space-based satellite, hundreds of thousands of meters above the Star Dou Great Forest, revealed the entire Douluo Star to everyone, Chen Fu, on the temporary command platform, clearly felt the restlessness of the humans and soul beasts around him.
"Is that Douluo Continent? It's so small!"
"I never imagined the ocean area was so vast!"
"From our current perspective, Douluo Continent occupies less than a quarter of this half of the planet's area, which means that at least seven-eighths of this world remains unexplored!"
"The east side of this map... it feels a little different from what I remember. Damn it, this memory must be with my other half!"
"It was truly awe-inspiring. Now that I think about it, the four countries on the mainland were too superficial."
"With such a vast ocean, could there be super sea spirit beasts? If so, we in Star Dou have been far too arrogant."
As everyone marveled at the tiny continents and vast oceans of the planet, Chen Fu saw Electrolux looking over, and then a silver-haired girl quietly appeared beside her.
The silver-haired girl who suddenly appeared looked at Chen Fu with a conflicted expression, her bright purple eyes flashing with confusion. She was about to say something when Chen Fu interrupted her with a smile: "What? Have you gone silly from sleeping too long?"
"Get lost! I meant to say that I seem to have forgotten something about the eastern part of Douluo Continent, so I came to ask if you have discovered anything." Gu Yuena's memories were inherited from the Dragon God, but not completely. A portion of them was taken by the Golden Dragon King, which made it difficult for her to understand certain things.
"You mean this?"
Upon hearing the "living fossil" girl's words, Chen Fu chuckled and then reopened a small virtual screen in front of Xue Di, Ilex, and Gu Yuena.
In this image, located at the easternmost point of Douluo Continent, after crossing an ocean almost as wide as the entire continent, some blocky objects can be vaguely seen distributed at the very edge of that planet.
The image taken by the Damocles satellite is excellent. At this moment, the Douluo Continent is located at its westernmost point, while those few small lumps are just peeking out at the easternmost point.
"That is..." Gu Yuena's eyes narrowed, and she felt a little itchy in her head, but she still couldn't remember.
"Like the Sun and Moon Continent, it is a continent." Electrox, who had begun his systematic learning, spoke with an unknown glint in his eyes, uttering words that Gu Yuena had not.
"It depends on the value, Electrox. I still maintain the view that intelligent beings create value more than undead beings." Chen Fu, understanding what Electrox was thinking, immediately reminded him, hoping he would calm down. Expecting a necromancer who wanted to understand life and death to completely reform and study pure light magic used by women was as difficult as asking a pervert to add "yellow" to his oath of "absolutely no coexistence with gambling and drugs."
“Alright, we’ll talk about it later.” Electrox was no ordinary person; he naturally saw through Chen Fu’s intention in concealing the news of the suspected discovery of a new continent. Besides wanting the Star Dou leadership to monopolize the results, there was also the question of whether this continent was truly necessary. If it didn’t meet Chen Fu’s expectations, or lacked sufficient development potential, then it would naturally be left for Electrox to use for his undead experiments.
After all, this is the price to pay; Electrolux's undead demiplane isn't so easy to obtain.
Moreover, he, Electrolux, is the Holy God of the Dead! This fundamental technique, which spends all day researching spirit and soul but doesn't provide timely positive feedback, is bound to entice him. However, using Star Dou Soul Beasts as guinea pigs isn't a good idea, and using Soul Masters wouldn't meet Electrolux's desired standards in either quality or quantity. He needs either a soul at the Limit Douluo level or higher, or he needs to raise and cultivate tens of thousands of ordinary people. In short, it won't work in the Douluo Continent.
"Let the satellites observe for a few days first, then we'll assemble a team to go and take a look," Chen Fu told Electrolux not to panic and to assess the situation on the other side of the continent before discussing further.
Xue Di then spoke up, "The distance across the sea is too far. Even a normal Flying Douluo would need a week to fly that distance continuously, let alone a ship."
This also explains why no one has discovered that land for so long. The vast ocean has no reference points for you to fly in a straight line for a whole week to reach it. For non-flying Soul Masters, it would take even longer, possibly half a month of continuous flight over the ocean!
This is only in an ideal situation. Considering rest, attacks by sea spirit beasts, and deviations from the course, even a titled Douluo might not be able to reach the other side of the sea for a month.
