Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 492 - 491: Authority of the Sun

Even though Jiang Cheng's body was very strong, it couldn't withstand the power of a nuclear charge.

That's why Jiang Cheng was so careful, afraid that any accident might occur during the experiment.

Lucy might have seen that Jiang Cheng was a bit nervous, so she said: "Master, don't worry, I've simulated this experiment many times. There won't be any accidents."

After hearing Lucy's words, Jiang Cheng finally relaxed a bit, but he still reminded Lucy once again.

"Although the probability of success for this experiment is very high, we still need to be cautious. After all, it is a controlled fusion experiment; it's always better to be safe.

If anything goes wrong during the experiment, Jiang Cheng might die in the process.

If the controlled fusion fails, the terrifying energy would tear Jiang Cheng's body to pieces in an instant, leaving him no time to react. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Let's begin!

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and then resolutely gave the command to start the experiment.

Despite the extreme danger of this experiment, Jiang Cheng didn't hesitate at all.

Such a small danger couldn't scare Jiang Cheng; there are many such dangerous experiments on the path of scientific research.

If he were afraid of everything, then Jiang Cheng might as well stop pursuing scientific research altogether.

Besides, the process has been simulated many times, and the likelihood of accidents has been minimized.

Jiang Cheng pressed a few buttons on that machine, and it began to roar.

The experiment officially started, and its success or failure hinged on this moment.

As the machine continued to operate, some ripples appeared on the smooth platform.

That small piece of space started to change as if a stone had been thrown into calm water.

Quickly, the ripples reached their peak, and that small piece of space was shaken by the machine.

As the space kept trembling, a small isolated area appeared in midair.

The situation of this area was hard to describe in words, as if the space itself was severed.

Once that isolated space gradually stabilized, Jiang Cheng began the next phase of the experiment.

This small space was designated by Jiang Cheng for the fusion reaction, using space to confine the controlled fusion process.

This little space had been isolated by Jiang Cheng, so no matter how severe the reaction inside, it couldn't affect the surrounding environment.

Even if a nuclear charge were detonated inside, there would be no movement at the boundary of that space.

Nothing is sturdier than space, making it a preferred method to control and constrain controlled fusion.

This is the controlled fusion solution Jiang Cheng found: using a specially designed machine to isolate a small piece of space from the outside world, then carrying out the controlled fusion reaction within that isolated space.

"Space isolation complete, start the fusion reaction!" Jiang Cheng said to Lucy, giving the next command.

Soon, a small speck of light appeared above the machine, so small it was hard to see with the naked eye.

That speck of light was the ongoing fusion reaction; the experiment had reached its most critical moment.

However, this situation only lasted a short while before the small speck of light rapidly expanded, soon filling the isolated space with brilliance.

As the volume of light increased, its brightness escalated until it became dazzling.

Gradually, the light's intensity became ridiculously strong, to the point it couldn't be stared at directly. In the laboratory's air, a miniature sun suddenly appeared.

The artificial sun emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire room.

This small sun represented the ongoing controlled fusion; the artificial sun was so beautiful, like an eternal sun.

Jiang Cheng, gazing at the dazzling light in front of him, was somewhat mesmerized.

This artificial sun, created by his own hands, appeared so magnificent.

This little sun represented infinite possibilities for humanity, leading mankind towards a glorious future.

Gazing at the light in the lab's air, Jiang Cheng remained silent, only staring, his thoughts unknown.

All experimental data meets expectations, the controlled fusion reaction is stable, and no anomalies have occurred; this experiment was wonderful!

Next, various tests should be conducted. I suggest you perform follow-up tests on this experiment; we need more data to perfect the fusion reaction process and thoroughly understand all related contents.

Until a crisp child's voice interrupted Jiang Cheng's thoughts, pulling him back from his own world to reality.

It turns out Lucy noticed Jiang Cheng didn't react and reminded him out loud that it was time for the next phase of the experiment.

"Understood, record everything. Next, conduct a test to increase output power, and then measure other data of the fusion reaction."

After coming out of contemplation, Jiang Cheng immediately gave the follow-up experiment orders to Lucy.

His words were filled with excitement, yet tinged with a faint trace of disappointment.

Lucy's highly advanced emotion analysis system instantly picked up on the anomaly in Jiang Cheng's tone, so she promptly asked.

"Master, you seem a bit off. Shouldn't you be more pleased about the experiment's success?"

"There's nothing unusual about me, just the joy of success." Jiang Cheng didn't pay too much attention to Lucy's inquiry and simply brushed it off.

Lucy's level of anthropomorphism was very high and could detect the anomalies in Jiang Cheng's tone.

However, Artificial Intelligence is still AI, and it can't fully understand human thought patterns.

Jiang Cheng's excitement earlier was perfectly normal because he had completed a significant experiment.

Controlled fusion is a crucial element of his subsequent plans, which is why he was so exhilarated.

As for that faint hint of disappointment earlier, that was not something Lucy, as Artificial Intelligence, could comprehend.

Today, with the successful completion of controlled fusion, Jiang Cheng, in a sense, created an artificial sun with his own hands.

Because the principle of the sun emitting light and heat is controlled fusion, describing it as a small sun is appropriate.

The reason for Jiang Cheng's slight sense of loss was precisely because he had created a sun with his own hands.

The sun has always been a very special existence in human civilization, symbolizing something profoundly important in all cultures, as the star that brings warmth to the Earth.

Wielding the power of the sun has always been humanity's dream, desiring to shine and warm like the sun since primitive society.
