As the ultra-high-definition camera zoomed in, the towering Kyoto Tower became increasingly clear, and a blurry golden figure could be vaguely seen from the circular observation deck protruding outwards from the top of the tower.
"Hey guys, isn't there someone standing on the observation deck at the top of the tower?"
"My goodness, it's giving me phobias! Standing atop a tower over 100 meters high with absolutely no safety measures around, isn't that golden figure scared?"
"There seems to be a motorcycle next to that person. No! It's too far away, I can't see it clearly at all. Can the live stream camera zoom in a bit more?"
The ultra-high-definition camera locked onto the golden figure at the top of the tower. Zooming in, the figure, clad in white-gold armor, stood with his back turned. As if sensing a gaze peeking from behind, he turned around, and the dragon-shaped eye mask suddenly lit up.
The live stream chat suddenly went blank.
The next second.
The barrage of comments was overwhelming and scrolling wildly!
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! Emperor Hero?"
"Holy crap! Dragon head, tiger shoulders, eagle arms, mastiff back, rhinoceros legs—it looks exactly like the Emperor Hero Armor Hero!"
"He has Imperial Emperor Shield on his chest! And he's the Ultimate Emperor!"
"That look he gave me was so incredibly handsome, those scarlet eyes had such a commanding and oppressive aura, like he was looking down on everyone!"
"And that BMW S1000RR motorcycle cosplay, the Imperial Emperor Steed's Horse, is absolutely the most realistic Emperor Hero cosplay I've ever seen, bar none!"
" Ziqiao, I know this is ridiculous, but you have to believe me, I really fucking saw Emperor Hero on Kyoto Tower in Japan!"
Millions of young viewers in the live stream were excited and thrilled. Even those who had never seen Armor Hero knew the great name of Emperor Hero, after all, it was the ultimate masterpiece of Huaxia!
Yugong Nishang took the laptop, her fingertips trembling slightly as she said, "The person standing Kyoto Tower, clad in Imperial Emperor Armor, is Captain of Sovereign Dominion Exalted Emperor!"
These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue!
"What?! That Emperor Hero is Exalted Emperor?"
"Holy crap, Exalted Emperor? But whether he's Exalted Emperor or Su Hang, he's the Imperial Emperor now!"
"I almost forgot the important matter, little brother Nishang. What did you mean by saying that the Exalted Emperor Yugong Shrine saved Liuli?"
Yugong Nishang flips the laptop screen.
A large, dynamic model is displayed on the live stream screen.
" The Exalted Emperor will ride a motorcycle, soaring from the Kyoto Tower in a downward-opening parabolic trajectory, flying 1 kilometer through the air to reach the sky above Yugong Shrine, where he will leap from the motorcycle and swiftly land at the wedding Liuli Light Courtyard!"
The viewers in the live stream were instantly stunned.
Immediately, the public chat screen filled with a flurry of comments.
"Little brother Nishang, are you kidding me?"
"I recognize every single word in this sentence, but I just can't understand the meaning of it all together."
"This... this... how is this even possible?"
"If you want to ride a motorcycle and soar into the sky from the Kyoto Tower, your motorcycle's initial speed must be fast enough, at least on par with a high-speed train!"
"But the observation deck at the top of the tower looks only 5 meters long. Even if you twist the throttle to the maximum and accelerate to 30 kilometers per hour, you can only fly a dozen meters at most. How could you possibly fly 1 kilometer in the air?"
Yugong Nishang clicked the mouse, zooming in on the giant [lantern] at the top of Kyoto Tower. "I wonder if any of the Huaxia netizens have ever seen a motorcycle cage show?"
Most viewers in the live stream were confused, saying, "You've all seen this before, right? It's just a motorcycle riding around in a circular metal cage, isn't it?"
A small group of viewers suddenly realized. "Holy crap! Nishang Chang, you mean, Exalted Emperor will ride a motorcycle, circling and accelerating inside the lanterns at the top of the tower?"
"Yes."
Yugong Nishang Neshou said with a complicated expression, "The lantern on the Kyoto Tower is 10 meters in diameter and is made of ultra-high-strength steel. The Exalted Emperor will drive a motorcycle into the cage and ride it horizontally in circles until he reaches the motorcycle's maximum speed!"
Millions of viewers in the live stream were stunned.
What is the top speed?
Yugong Nishang said in a deep voice, "380 kilometers per hour!"
"What?"
Millions of viewers in the live stream were horrified!
"No way! Just hearing these numbers is terrifying. Can any car experts describe what this means?"
"Running over 100 meters per second! That's practically teleportation! This speed far exceeds that of a high-speed train and is half the speed of a regular civilian airliner!"
"The regular BMW S1000RR has a top speed of 300 km/h, but this one is a collaboration with Imperial Emperor Steed and has been heavily modified, so theoretically it can indeed reach a speed of 380 km/h!"
"That's not the most terrifying part. The most terrifying part is that in this kind of high-speed racing, if the center of gravity is unstable or there is even a minor collision, it's equivalent to hundreds of kilograms of TNT exploding!"
"And there's another crucial point: this iron cage is only 10 meters in diameter. It doesn't take one horizontal rotation to accelerate the motorcycle from 0 to 380 km/h; it requires many rotations!"
"How many laps are there?"
Yugong Nishang took a deep breath and replied, "According to the computer software, Exalted Emperor needs to ride the motorcycle around the cage 42 and a half times!"
42 and a half laps?
The live stream left millions of viewers in awe.
"The entire acceleration process will take 25 seconds." Yugong Nishang clenched her fists, her eyes showing reluctance. "Although the armor has airbags for cushioning, if an accident occurs during this time, Exalted Emperor will undoubtedly die!"
The millions of viewers in the live stream held their breath.
After a long silence, someone asked, "What are the chances of Exalted Emperor succeeding?"
Yugong Nishang said tremblingly, "Only 1%!"
"What?!"
The millions of viewers in the live stream felt as if a huge stone was pressing on their hearts. The atmosphere plummeted to freezing point, incredibly oppressive. For Exalted Emperor, a 1% chance of success was no different from suicide!
"Don't let Exalted Emperor go, people will die!"
Tears welled up in Yugong Nishang's eyes. He picked up the recorder and resolutely played the remaining recording.
" Su Hang, I just used a computer to calculate the probability of your crazy plan succeeding. Guess what the success rate is?" Phoenix's voice rang out.
"How much?" Exalted Emperor asked.
"One percent!" Phoenix said in a deep voice, "And this is just a purely theoretical calculation from a physics and mathematics perspective; the actual figure is far smaller than that. Do you know what that means?"
"What does it mean?" Exalted Emperor asked.
"It means you have almost no chance of success, it means you're doomed!" Phoenix's tone was extremely serious. "Even so, do you still insist on saving Liuli?"
"Mmm," Exalted Emperor said calmly.
"You stubborn fool, knowing you'll die but still going to save me! Fine, since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you anymore!" Phoenix, in a fit of despair, shouted, "Wait a bit before you leave, then write your will first!"
"Why write a will?" Exalted Emperor asked.
Phoenix said sarcastically, "If we don't write our wills tonight, are we going to wait until the rescue operation fails and we're beyond dead before we can write them?"
"Isn't there a one percent chance of success?" Exalted Emperor asked.
Phoenix scoffed, "You think you can succeed?"
Exalted Emperor proudly declared, "Just watch, I will turn one percent into one hundred percent!"
Phoenix asked in surprise, "So confident?"
"Who do you think I am?" Exalted Emperor said domineeringly, "I am the Imperial Emperor!"
The hearts of millions of viewers in the live stream were violently shaken!
