To completely deflect the Giant Asteroid, all of Soar's kinetic energy had to be applied to the Asteroid, and the point of impact had to be precisely calculated down to the finest margin.
The reason Soar's leap was scheduled for one year before the Giant Asteroid struck the Cultivation Star—eight hours from now—was that this was the optimal impact angle calculated by a large number of elite specialists.
At this moment, Soar's direction of travel formed a right angle with the Asteroid's projected deflection path, allowing nearly all of its momentum to be transferred perfectly onto the Asteroid.
And if a miracle occurred, perhaps the Cultivation Star could survive.
Would there be a miracle? Perhaps! After Feng Cheng connected with the ground command headquarters and received the result, he immediately reported it. Meanwhile, Su Hao began mobilizing spiritual energy and activating the machines, proceeding step by step exactly as planned.
At this time, many people felt deeply conflicted. They hoped the plan would proceed smoothly, yet they also hoped some mishap would arise along the way.
Because according to the data provided by the Computing Center, even if Soar successfully struck its target, it still would not be enough to completely divert it. It was just short.
The deeper meaning of the plan proceeding smoothly was that they would still die.
How wonderful it would be if something went wrong. If there was an accident, perhaps the Asteroid would fly past them instead.
However, the miracle they hoped for was destined not to happen, because the entire process was under Su Hao's control. How could he allow an accident to occur so easily in something already arranged in advance?
He had encountered too many accidents. To be honest, he did not like accidents at all. He only liked surprises.
