Chapter 814 - 503: Moon Dome

At this very moment, everyone on Earth, staring at this mercury-colored sphere formed from all the industrial metals on the planet's surface, couldn't help but spread waves of panic.

Wang Ye has destroyed human civilization and gathered this metal sphere—what on Earth is he trying to do? He's not actually planning to kill everyone, is he?

Countless people with a pessimistic mindset wanted to put up one last resistance before they died, but they didn't even have the strength to resist anymore.

Because all their guns, ammunition, and missiles had already been absorbed; even the nukes that once could pose the slightest threat to Wang Ye had now been completely drawn away by him.

To Wang Ye now, they had utterly become ants he could crush between his fingers at will, and the entire Earth had become an ant nest he could stomp flat.

Yet just as everyone was sinking into despair,

netizens in China were actually taking a grim sort of pleasure in the global situation, because only their civilization and infrastructure were, for the time being, still intact. They could still go online, still send messages, and could even watch what was happening overseas. Right now, Island Countries like Japan were in the most tragic state, because the oceans were already swarming with countless lethal Sea Monsters. Surrounded on all sides by sea, they were already hard-pressed to defend themselves; now, with their weapons and iron fortifications forcibly stripped away, innumerable Sea Monsters that had evolved legs swarmed into the Island Country like a tide, gnawing their citizens down to the last person.

At this moment, on the domestic Weibo platform,

countless netizens began discussing the matter.

[What do you guys think Wang Ye is trying to do?]

[A lot of people think he no longer cares about humanity now, but I still feel he wants to save us.]

[Bro, what makes you say that?]

[Why is he draining all the world's metals? What, is he going to eat them? I think the only possibility is that he wants to build something—and something enormous—to save all of humanity.]

[What, is he going to build Mecha and do a Pacific Rim-style brawl with the monsters or something?]

[That's too cliché, and he himself can already fight the monsters, so why would he need Mecha?]

[In my opinion, he's probably building something that can let humans migrate to another world, like a spaceship. A ship that can carry all of humanity.]

[Damn, man, that's actually a solid take, it really could be that.]

[Otherwise, with this much liquid metal, I really can't think of what else he'd do. He's not going to use all this liquid metal just to make a metal planet, right?]

[Whether that's the truth or not, we'll just have to wait and see what Wang Ye does next.]

····················

At this very moment, Wang Ye, standing suspended in midair, began to manipulate that incomparably massive liquid metal sphere.

The metal sphere was split into countless segments, forming an extremely complex Space Elevator structure, one end stretching down to the land, the other extending into the Cosmos.

Wang Ye's invisible will, like a craftsman's chisel, precisely carved within the liquid metal. It was meticulously divided and combed into billions of tons of metallic torrents that began to flow along orderly trajectories. They were drawn out into silver threads piercing through heaven and earth, constructing the skeleton of a Starlink Transport Network, cooling and solidifying in the frigid vacuum of the Cosmos.

In an instant, a track network spanning the starry sky appeared out of thin air. The network expanded to a scale so vast it made people breathless, and it was not a single main body, but composed of countless interlaced, crisscrossing silver-gray tracks, arranged with exquisite precision, wide enough to accommodate the pods he had designed, allowing them to race along in a near-frictionless magnetic-levitation mode.

Everyone could clearly see, under the control of that figure in the sky who seemed like a Divine being, that silver thread stretching farther and farther, almost about to touch the Moon on the other end.

But because the distance between Earth and the Moon was a full 380,000 kilometers, the Starlink Transport Network he was building was not something that could be completed so easily.

While constructing the Starlink Transport Network, Wang Ye brought part of the liquid metal back to the homeland.

After all, they still had to help Wang Ye build the pods, and that was also a massive expenditure. To transport five billion people from all over the world to the Moon, a thousand or ten thousand pods would definitely not be enough; they would need at least ten million, only then would it be possible to carry everyone to the Moon in the fewest number of trips.

The creatures in the oceans were still constantly evolving; although Wang Ye had already killed the most formidable Death Squid, other Sea Monsters would definitely rise quickly to take its place.

So the time left for them was at most half a month. After half a month, Earth would be completely devoured by these Sea Monsters; even the land would not be spared, because sooner or later these Sea Monsters would evolve the ability to survive on land.

And after devouring the land, these Sea Monsters wouldn't stop there. In the end, some individuals might evolve into true Cosmos beings, possibly even devouring Earth itself. This wasn't an exaggeration. Based on Wang Ye's observations, this Evolutionary Energy would keep accumulating within certain individuals, just like the phenomenon of bioaccumulation.

Bioaccumulation refers to the phenomenon where organisms absorb and accumulate foreign substances through environmental media or the food chain. This bioaccumulation causes persistent organic pollutants to become enriched in the fatty tissues of organisms. Through predation, animals pass the toxins accumulated in lower-trophic organisms up to higher levels. In plain language, the higher an organism is on the food chain, the more pollutants it carries in its body.
