"Oh, it was nothing. I just pulled over a meteor from outer space."
Lu Chen spoke calmly, as though he had done something utterly insignificant.
"A... a meteor? How big is it?!"
Alice was immediately shocked. She looked up at the sky, squinting against the blinding sunlight. Sure enough, high in the sky, there was an extremely tiny black dot.
"Not that big. About ten kilometers in diameter, a little smaller than that city."
"Ten kilometers!"
Alice's expression changed drastically. She looked up again and found that the black dot had already grown to the size of an apple. At this rate, it would reach the surface in less than a minute.
"Lu... Lu Chen, a ten-kilometer meteor is far too large. It must weigh at least one to two trillion tons. If it strikes the ground, then judging by the power of a fifty-megaton nuclear bomb, that would be equivalent to more than a million nuclear bombs.
When that happens, the chain reactions caused by the meteor—earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions—will wipe out all life on the planet."
"Hehe, don't worry. Of course I know all that. If this meteor starts falling from an altitude of ten thousand meters, then with its size and gravitational acceleration, the impact should be just enough to destroy that city."
"Ten... ten thousand meters?" Alice was confused. Was he going to intercept the meteor midway and make it stop at an altitude of ten thousand meters? But an impact of that level was equivalent to a million fifty-megaton nuclear bombs! That was impossible, wasn't it?!
Alice was somewhat flustered. Was this what a multiverse powerhouse was like? He could just pull over a meteor whenever he wanted. That was absurdly willful.
Half of the minute passed in an instant. The meteor, trailing scorching flames,
