Destruction, the Ultimate Means of Civilizational Balance

"????

Huh?!!

Rhine,

I must not have misheard, right?"

At this moment, Klosan's heart seemed completely overwhelmed by shock and excitement.

"Compared to you, I really am far too conservative.

No, I have to see with my own eyes exactly how you did it.

This is just too exciting.

Isn't your plan completely insane?"

"Perhaps it is meant to serve as a counterbalance to other Celestial Weapons.

No matter the era,

the development of science must be guaranteed by a corresponding force of deterrence."

Su Wen spoke with utmost calmness.

He was willing to be the one who walked into the flames, willing to become Prometheus, stealing fire for everyone.

Even so,

he had already roughly understood just how immense the ripples through time and space caused by this game could become.

Even if that future might bring about even more unimaginable changes,

all of it was inevitable with time,

because he was the sole observer:

"Klosan,

do you know about the Manhattan Project's chain-reaction atomic bombs using uranium-235 or plutonium-239?

(Did the Manhattan Project develop a chain-reaction atomic bomb using uranium-235 or plutonium-239)?

In the twentieth century,

they were weapons humanity used to keep one another in check,

and thus they had another, more resounding name known by everyone:

nuclear bombs.

In 1905, Dr. Albert Einstein proposed the famous Mass-Energy Equivalence equation, E=mc²,

revealing the equivalence between matter and energy and laying the theoretical foundation for the invention of nuclear weapons.

In 1934, Italian physicist Enrico Fermi conducted experiments bombarding elements with neutrons, triggering the first nuclear chain reaction and providing crucial technical support for the development of nuclear weapons.

In 1938, German scientists Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann discovered nuclear fission, the process in which the nucleus of a heavy element splits into two lighter particles.
