Metallic hydrogen was a metastable substance.
It could be used to create a "magnetic cage" to confine plasma.
It could "contain" scorching ionized gas, allowing nuclear energy to be converted into electrical energy.
Simply put,
this process was called—Controllable Nuclear Fusion.
It had originally been the Sun's ability.
Amid the sea of stars, it nurtured endless life.
In nature, the easiest fusion reaction to achieve involved hydrogen isotopes—deuterium and tritium.
At that moment, Jupiter possessed nearly inexhaustible hydrogen, even highly concentrated liquid hydrogen!
Humanity had long since conquered isotope conversion technology!
The equipment and raw materials were all there!
And the scale had to be measured in units of "how many Earths"!
Earth's energy experts nearly jumped onto their desks.
Di Wu
You bastard, Di Wu!
You had a purpose all along!
You were trying to seize control of the Solar System's ultimate energy source!
What the hell were you planning to do with all that energy?!
Almost every nation was green with envy.
But there was nothing they could do. Who told them they lacked the ability to enter Jupiter's interior?
This was the kind of wealth one sought amid danger!
No, that wasn't right. He clearly hadn't expended any effort at all—he had just jumped in!
Yet a sentence Liu Di muttered to himself confirmed his ambition beyond doubt.
"Deuterium and tritium are part of the Sun's internal reactions."
"Jupiter, you were originally meant to become a Sun. But for some unknown reason, you stopped along the path of evolution."
"But don't worry. I will carry forward the energy you've accumulated over hundreds of millions of years."
This man was speaking to a planet.
But Jupiter remained solemn and did not answer.
Perhaps it had waited hundreds of millions of years, hoping that one day it too could
