My Ability Pool is S Chapter 446: Not Much Of A Gap?

Rumble~

The intense sonic boom continuously stimulated Lu Bai’s eardrums.

If an ordinary person were in Lu Bai’s current position, they probably wouldn’t last even a second before their ears would bleed and they would lose their hearing.

But Lu Bai acted as if nothing was wrong, allowing the wind to beco increasingly exaggerated without any intention of slowing down.

In a state of high-speed ascension far exceeding the speed of sound, he passed through the troposphere in a flash and entered the stratosphere.

In the stratosphere where air currents mainly move horizontally, the Wind Riding ability beca even more like a fish in water. Lu Bai’s ascension speed not only did not decrease but seed to beco slightly faster.

As for the temperature gradually dropping to minus thirty or forty degrees Celsius, it no longer needed to be considered after Lu Bai switched to the Steel Body ability.

Feeling the surrounding temperature gradually rising, such an inversion phenonon, combined with the planet whose outline appeared before his eyes, made Lu Bai realize that he was already nearly fifty kiloters from the ground.

Unknowingly, the pressure of ascending suddenly decreased. Lu Bai no longer hesitated, accelerated, and rushed to low Earth orbit height in one go.

Undoubtedly, in an environnt with no obstructions, he could observe the Mona person’s starship at a glance.

The distance was still very far, visually estimated at over two thousand kiloters.

Of course, in outer space, space seed stretched out long. Compared to the distance between planets, a few thousand kiloters was almost within reach.

But thanks to this distance, Lu Bai could clearly see the full view of the Mona person warship.

It was a huge cylinder.

The thrusters at the tail did not seem too difficult to understand, at least not yet at the level of science fiction.

If Lu Bai conveniently brought over a professional aerospace technology technician right now, they could identify it as an efficient fission thruster.

Just this design alone might provide inspiration to humanity’s professionals, greatly improving humanity’s aerospace technology level.

Unfortunately, Lu Bai did not consider this aspect; otherwise, he would at least take a photo first.

What truly attracted Lu Bai’s attention was actually the four panels at the front of the starship.

Each of these four panels was enormously large; when unfolded, each panel was probably larger than the starship’s main body.

These panels were folded, closing into a square opening, with one end of the opening pointing toward Earth.

Undoubtedly, the dark red high-temperature beam from before was launched from this square opening.

It wasn’t that the power was insufficient, but using equipnt larger than the starship’s main body to produce a high-temperature constrained ray that evaporated a three-kiloter diater seed a bit strange, right?

As strange as soone carrying a Gatling gun and shooting out a small splash of water.

Seeing this, Lu Bai frowned slightly.

No, that’s not right.

Lu Bai gradually ford a guess.

Even though he wasn’t very knowledgeable about aerospace technology, he knew that among humanity’s aerospace challenges, besides energy, there was also heat dissipation.

For large chanical equipnt like aircraft carriers, airplanes, and tanks, heat dissipation is not an issue.

Because whether dissipating into air or seawater, it’s easy and doesn’t require handling this waste heat.

However, space is different. In a vacuum environnt, the only heat dissipation thod is thermal radiation.

Evidently, the Mona person’s technology level had not reached the point of perfectly utilizing energy without producing waste heat.

At present, these four enormously large panels were actually the heat dissipation devices of this Mona person starship?

In other words, the attack that caused panic at humanity’s combat command center and complete chaos among countless people at the forward base…

Essentially, it was just a heat dissipation thod of the Mona person starship?

The four huge panels that unfolded again faintly glowed with high-temperature red, further confirming Lu Bai’s guess.

This was still very terrifying for humanity.

While humanity’s aerospace personnel were still considering how to minimize heat dissipation equipnt area, the Mona people could already reuse the waste heat produced by starship energy consumption, even using it as a fairly powerful attack.

This gap was truly too despairing.

Even though it had not reached the point of perfectly utilizing all energy, this thod seed not far off.

But Lu Bai actually overlooked one point.

When even he could guess the effect of these devices, it ant that the Mona person’s technological developnt had not diverged from humanity’s research direction.

In this case, at most there was a generational gap in technology, but the route was the sa.

As long as humanity was given enough ti, they could completely catch up to the technology gap based on the Mona person’s equipnt.

The only question was, if asured in years, how many years was the current gap?

……

“Excluding black technology obtained from deathmatch duels, based on our existing or soon-to-be-realized technology, the technology gap is probably within a century.”

Combat command room.

On the huge central screen, it displayed the low Earth orbit footage provided by warti satellites.

Based on this starship’s appearance and heat source detection results, the technician in a white coat gave this answer.

It was noticeable that while saying this, the white coat’s face showed an irrepressible smile.

Understandably, at first they thought the gap with the Mona people was so large that it was incomprehensible, leaving them powerless to fight back.

But now it seed that the re Mona people were nothing special.

After quietly listening to the researcher’s words, the combat command room imdiately filled with soft cheers.

Admittedly, there was still a gap, but it was not without ways to bridge it.

This battle could be fought, and there was even hope of victory!

This idea persisted until in the footage, Lu Bai t it head-on and single-handedly smashed through that starship.

……

Large amounts of warship wreckage scattered and suspended in space. The starship, ramd into two sections by Lu Bai relying on Steel Body, spewed countless electric arcs and firelight from the break.

Looking from afar, it was simply a pile of space junk.

Lu Bai held his breath and headed straight for the cockpit.

He had never piloted this kind of starship, so he didn’t know where the cockpit was and had to search several places.

This made the starship, already scrapped by his collision, beco even more fragnted.

Finally, he found the cockpit.

In the cockpit, there were only two people with faces full of terror.

Yes, humans.

From the colorful light spots suspended above their heads, Lu Bai could easily judge that these were two Mona warriors.

He grabbed one with each hand.

Without hesitation, he read their minds.

In almost the blink of an eye, he learned the answers he wanted.

Indeed, these were not the first Mona people to rush over.

This warship was just equipnt left behind when the Mona people descended on Earth four hundred years ago.
