It only took 13.78 kilograms of antimatter to destroy the Earth.
If it was in the center of the Earth, this number might be much less.
Although it was only a conclusion based on theoretical estimates, and there might even be a certain degree of exaggeration, it still had a certain reference value.
If it was to destroy Mars …
If it was detonated in the planetary furnace, one kilogram would probably be enough, right?
As for whether it was enough, Jiang Chen had no opportunity to confirm it himself. When the magnetic confinement was put into the inlet of the planetary furnace, he activated interdimensional travel and returned from the modern world to the apocalypse.
Then, everything was over.
The heat of the entire Mars core was diverted to this place by the metal tubes. It was conceivable how terrifying the temperature of the unformed quark material was.
The metal was vaporized in an instant, and the magnetic confinement along with the magnetic generator disappeared.
Immediately afterward, the released kilogram of antimatter was like a high explosive thrown into an oil barrel.
And it was the kind that was burning …
At the moment of contact between the antimatter and the antimatter, the energy generated by annihilation did not blow up the surrounding matter like conventional explosives. Instead, it pulled the surrounding matter and the space itself to the center of the annihilation.
A huge amount of energy gushed out, and the space itself collapsed at this moment.
The entire metal spherical space, together with several kilometers of rock strata nearby, turned into distorted light and shadow. They formed a vortex as they were pulled to the darkness in the center that seemed to be able to suck away even souls. The terrifying gravitational force radiated from the center of the black vortex. Large pieces of rock were torn apart, and the magma flowing in the rock layer was squeezed and erupted.
However, the pitch-black hole did not exist for long.
One kilogram of antimatter was obviously not enough to create a real black hole, not even a fake black hole could be formed. The matter and energy sucked into the center of the black vortex erupted in an instant, like a slingshot …
The real doomsday had arrived.
Whether it was the insects landing on Mars, the Martian creatures baring their teeth and claws, or the Celestial Trade Marines desperately resisting in front of the colony center to fulfill their final mission, this was the case.
At the moment when Mount Olympus erupted, the surface began to tear on a large scale. The transportation pipelines of Tiangong City, which had already been riddled with holes, broke inch by inch, and the steel buildings let out unbearable cries. Electric sparks and broken rivets raged in every corner of Tiangong City.
The sand dunes became abysses, the mountains were leveled, and the vast desert rolled like waves. The whole planet was like a red-hot iron, ushering in its doomsday.
Groups of mutants were swallowed up by the cracks on the ground. Many bugships began to speed up, trying to catch up to the Swentowit and escape from this whirlpool of death. However, all of this was just wishful thinking.
The Sventowit ship increased its engine output to the maximum, and the colony ship that was moving toward Mars extended its tentacles and membranes to the limit. However, no matter who it was, it was too late in front of this "planetary bomb" that had been detonated …
…
Two hundred million kilometers away, Celestial City was deserted.
A week ago, Celestial Trade implemented personnel control on the city floating in the geosynchronous orbit. Celestial Trade restricted the entry of non-ticket holders and dissuaded irrelevant personnel from leaving the geosynchronous orbit.
After watching SS Origin set off, Calvin returned to the space command center, made two cups of coffee, and walked to his seat.
"Thank you."
Taking the coffee from his boss, his assistant was flattered and thanked him.
"You're welcome." Calvin waved his hand and sat down on the chair next to him. "You've been making coffee for me for a few years. If you want to say thank you, it should be me."
In the space command room, there were only a few people sitting here.
After Calvin sat down in his seat, he no longer spoke.
The assistant sitting next to him couldn't stand the strange silence and couldn't help but ask.
"I don't understand, why didn't you board the ship?"
"I've never been married in my life."
The assistant paused and looked at him in confusion. He didn't understand why he suddenly said this.
"Because here, is the other half of my life." Calvin smiled and looked out the window at the blue planet. "If its fate is doomed, then I at least hope to sit here and accompany it to the end."
Calvin paused for a second and looked at the employees who stayed in the space command room. They were repeating some tedious and meaningless work. He continued to speak.
"What about you? Why did you stay here? "
The assistant's hand holding the coffee cup was trembling, and he smiled awkwardly.
"What if a miracle happens? I want to tell my wife as soon as possible … "
The two of them looked at each other and burst into laughter at the same time.
"I'm not joking," Calvin, who laughed enough, shook his head and said, "I want to hear the truth. I don't know if a miracle will happen or not, but I promise you will have to go back and explain to your wife why your salary was deducted this month. "
"I'm not joking, I just … really don't know what to do." His shoulders relaxed, and a bitter smile appeared on the assistant's face.
It wasn't just him.
Among the employees who stayed here to work today, who didn't feel the same?
The space observer sitting there repeatedly adjusted the angle and focal length of the space telescope, while the correspondent on the left-hand side used Moore code to broadcast corny jokes that no one could laugh at to the abandoned Europa colony … But who could blame them?
They just wanted to use work to distract themselves so that the last day would not be so difficult.
Unfortunately, Calvin didn't have any more missions for them to complete.
At this moment, the observer sitting next to Calvin, who was fiddling with the space telescope, suddenly stopped his movements and began to ramble inexplicably.
"Do you believe in God?"
"Sorry, I'm an atheist," Calvin said.
"I was the same a minute ago …"
"Then Mr. Stolev, what changed your faith?" Calvin said with a smile.
"Just a minute ago, I tried to pray … and then, a miracle happened."
He rambled nervously, and because he was too nervous, he bit his tongue twice in one sentence.
Stolev did not continue to explain in the face of his superior's questioning gaze. Instead, he tapped on the touchpad a few times and turned on the large holographic screen in the center. He presented everything he discovered through the space telescope on it.
The coffee cup fell on the table with a bang.
Calvin's mouth was wide open as he stared blankly at everything happening on the screen. He didn't even notice the burning sensation on his thigh. The other employees in the space command center also stopped their work and stared at the image on the holographic screen.
"This happened 17 minutes ago …"
Stolev said in a trembling voice.
