727: Chapter 371: Huge Changes 727: Chapter 371: Huge Changes A command, like an invisible lightning bolt, silently rolled over the entire satellite network.
At first, no one took the minor error that suddenly appeared seriously.
In that instant, the attitude adjustnt thrusters of nearly every satellite were activated.
Although this minor bug was rare, it had happened in the past.
Away from the center of gravity, the thrusters with huge rotational torque caused the spacecraft to spin chaotically.
The condition of the small satellites was not discovered imdiately.
Only the larger orbital units—including the space-based weapon launchers and orbiting space stations—were detected by maintenance personnel right away.
Internal Martial Artists imdiately linked directly to the control system, while engineers directly accessed their extravehicular prosthetic bodies, rushing towards the malfunctioning subsystems.
However, these maintenance Internal Martial Artists soon embarrassingly discovered that the command activating the thrusters ca from a higher authority.
It was very likely the will of so higher-up.
Out of confusion, these maintainers imdiately sent out inquiries, hoping to get answers from their superiors.
But at this ti, engineers discovered another alarming issue.
The spacecraft’s reaction wheels suddenly activated and rapidly overloaded.
There was a reaction wheel inside the satellite, often a large tal disc of considerable mass.
When the satellite needed to change its attitude, the motor would drive the wheel.
Due to the reaction force, the spacecraft as a whole would rotate in the opposite direction.
Of course, the wheel could also be used to “store the spacecraft’s excess angular montum.”
This technology did not consu hard-to-replenish fuel or high-pressure gas, only electrical energy.
It was very popular among traditional satellites.
But now, it had the opposite effect, accelerating the uncontrollability of the satellite.
The overloaded wheel soon sped up beyond the design surplus.
The motor quickly burned out.
But at this mont, there were no attitude adjustnt thrusters left to “brake” it.
Many thrusters even expelled all of the spacecraft’s reserves of high-pressure gas or fuel at once—reserves that were supposed to be used only for ergency braking or rapid trajectory changes.
But the disaster was far from over.
So aged bearings in the reaction wheels directly broke during this round of overloading.
The heavy wheels ca off, directly hitting the inside walls of the spacecraft.
These long-serving spacecraft imdiately experienced random, violent vibrations and then stopped working entirely.
The larger spacecraft fared even worse.
Because including space stations, many large spacecraft used magnetically levitated reaction wheels.
The mont the motor burned out or abruptly stopped, the reaction wheel with its terrifying kinetic energy broke free from the containnt area.
These spacecraft, often supply points, barracks or laboratories, felt fierce vibrations in that instant.
But things were still not over.
In this era, the distance between small satellites did not exceed seventy ters, and the larger spacecraft were typically only two hundred ters apart.
This was an era saturated with satellites and space debris.
As a result, several small spacecraft collided with larger ones.
The speed was not fast, but in this almost resistance-less universe, the montum of the spacecraft was almost entirely transferred to the next victim.
The frawork of modern spacecraft was very reliable, such a heavy hit was still not enough to disintegrate a spacecraft.
But these accelerated spacecraft were about to face a huge problem.
Before the second wave of impacts, King Aqini had already co online.
His terrifying inner strength swept across the entire satellite network.
He never expected that at this mont, there would still be such a bold criminal, daring to provoke him in the Earth-Moon system.
However, King Aqini realized quickly that the situation was irretrievable.
That unfamiliar Internal Martial Artist had drained the high-pressure gas or fuel reserves of most spacecraft at the fastest speed possible and had damaged most of the reaction wheels.
The remaining spacecraft were not damaged, but without external help, it was now very difficult to change their trajectories again.
Even with his formidable external strength, he couldn’t accomplish this feat.
But at this mont, an extrely solid signal rushed into King Aqini’s palace along a very straightforward data link.
This segnt of the signal even followed a legitimate path, directly crashing into King Aqini’s neural circuits.
It was like a hundred rockets being launched at close range, like a thousand cannons firing, ten thousand monks ringing bells…
This signal directly struck the surface of Hartman’s consciousness.
A voice…
a voice directly scolded in the depths of his heart.
“I, Xiang Shan, am back, Hartman!”
This sensation made King Aqini freeze on the spot.
Countless mories—fearful, grateful, contemptuous, hateful…
Countless mories of battles were activated.
It even took Hartman two seconds to realize what had happened.
“Martial God Reincarnation…” Hartman’s body’s indicator lights gradually changed color: “Martial God Reincarnation, highest-level alert…
eliminate…
destroy that guy!”
A trendous surge of Inner Strength rolled out, flowing towards the satellite network and simultaneously surging back along that data link.
But by this ti, Xiang Shan had already completed his final task.
The communication satellite broadcast a public signal toward Earth, a broadcast.
“Heroes, the satellite network and the Heavenly Punishnt System will collapse.
They will need months to clear the space debris, months to rebuild the network.
The opportunity has co.
Kill.”
In that instant, Hartman had already expelled Xiang Shan from the satellite network.
Xiang Shan, in response, cut off the data line connecting him with the Ninth Martial God with a backhand stroke of his long blade.
“Oh oh oh oh, it’s started, it’s started!” White Night Lux, oblivious to the extraterrestrial confrontation, raised her Long Blade with excitent, wanting to read the ordained sentence to this Fad Hero.
But at that mont, a wave of terrified shouting ca through the communication.
“No…
this is impossible…
no…
no…
this is absolutely impossible…”
A high-level military officer who had stayed behind took three steps back, almost unable to stand firmly.
He witnessed the most mind-boggling scene of his life.
In front of him, three masters from the Moon, experts of Internal arts, were set ablaze.
The seams of the three masters’ prosthetic bodies even leaked dazzling light, as these individuals would apply fuel and oxidizer to key parts inside their bodies.
This ensured that once the key parts of their prosthetic bodies were extracted, they would imdiately catch fire and self-ignite.
Of course, if their internal temperature beca too high, there was also the risk of catching fire.
But normally, prosthetic bodies would absolutely not reach that temperature.
Unless it was an overload attack from an external source.
—That Hero, in an instant, killed three of King Aqini’s confidants…
