Second Sleep

The universe Earth inhabited was cruel, because nothing anyone did could stop total entropy from increasing, could stop the world from moving step by step towards destruction.

The current universe of the Wizard World might be an entirely different universe.

Of course, whatever its differences were, he needed to understand Extraordinary Particles first. Only by understanding Extraordinary Particles would it be possible to obtain a new universe.

That meant he had to begin researching and manufacturing Nuclear Weapons step by step.

This was no easy task. It was hardly any simpler than recreating Earth's entire set of particle research equipment. The only difference was that this was feasible.

Throughout the process, neither the high-level enrichment and purification of uranium materials nor the supply of enormous amounts of energy could be solved casually. The principles behind some technologies might not be secret, but putting them into practice was extremely difficult.

One step at a time.

Richard steadied himself and murmured inwardly.

"Tap, tap, tap..."
