Because the Carrington-class Solar Storm had nearly destroyed the Asia-Pacific Union's Deep Sea Research Institute at the time.
With the Barrier Plan established along China's Jiangnan coast, Dr. Jiang had joined forces with other experts transferred from Magic City to conduct a specialized study of the previous solar anomaly.
That made it easier for Su Wen to obtain the relevant information.
And so,
Su Wen, who had originally planned to keep exploiting bugs and effortlessly raise his level in this game, had no choice but to begin another round of calculations:
Fortunately, Jiang Menghan had given him a new graphics card before, and he could also draw upon Lorenz Riel's computing power.
This time, Su Wen's calculations did not end in the miserable outcome of his computer crashing from numbers that were too large by several orders of magnitude:
He brewed a cup of coffee,
then clicked Data Simulation in the preset program amid its fragrance.
It was already deep into the night in the Pacific region. Even if the demi-plane might not have true nights like the Current World, the iceberg girl was already fast asleep, so he did not disturb her.
In silence, Su Wen watched the energy-burst model that had been traced by the Deep Sea Research Institute and several other joint research institutions.
It began spreading through the simulated universe,
then descended upon Earth as a Carrington Solar Storm erupting with energy on the scale of a distant supernova explosion.
The speed simulation beside it even confirmed that, when it first arrived, it had approached 0.3c, enough to tear through interstellar matter.
Finally,
it fell upon Earth's magnetosphere through the X-ray bursts and high-energy proton streams it carried, like the whip of a god.
Watching this Data Projection of a calamity, the handsome Scholar finally sensed
