Super Spender - Chapter 566

Chapter 566: Chapter 560: Is God looking for trouble?

Zero was naturally very pleased at such a situation, and with a flash of light before Finn Lewis’s eyes, Zero immediately transported him to another time and space. Upon arrival, Lewis saw Lewis senior, who looked just the same, but unbeknownst to anyone, Lewis senior had already spent nearly fifty years in this world. During this time, all these intelligent robots had recharged their energy once.

“Young Master,” Lewis senior said respectfully. Finn quickly scanned the surroundings, with only two t1000 robots standing beside Lewis senior, and no one else. However, Finn was soon distracted by the spectacular view outside the window.

At this moment, Finn should be in a high-rise building. Looking outside the window, the city appeared incredibly beautiful, hardly differing from a modern city. Although the architectural style of this metropolis might seem slightly outdated compared to Earth, lacking ubiquitous towering electronic screens and neon lights, it definitely bore no resemblance to the cities from the sixties or seventies.

Had this time-space’s Proudly Nation already progressed to such an extent? Although Finn had not visited this place for a long time, he definitely remembered the current year in this space-time was roughly 1884. It was in this year that Nicolas Tesla joined Edison Ainsworth’s company and then established his own company the following year.

“Give me a basic rundown of the situation. Olivia didn’t tell me much before I came here,” Finn said seriously.

“Of course. Based on your directives, our Flame Nation’s overall technology level has roughly reached the equivalent of another space-time’s seventies to eighties. However, this only represents the standard of civilian life. In our leading industrial district, the technology level is almost identical to the modern era due to our ample time for development,” Lewis senior crisply stated.

When Finn returned to Celeston City, his company, the Virtual World Corporation, for the first time, announced its latest project updates to the public. This announcement shocked everyone as the corporation declared that Floral Island’s construction project had already been completed, with subsequent work to gradually unfold and the island to progressively open to the public.

The announcement utterly astounded everyone. They wondered how it was possible to finish in just three months. Even constructing with building blocks wouldn’t be so swift. However, in the public announcement, they stuck to the old script, attributing the speed to the use of cutting-edge technology and advanced high-tech materials, which far exceeded the speed of conventional construction.

“However, are you two sure this won’t cause any problems?” Finn was now back in Celeston City, and the ones presenting this plan to him in his study were Olivia and Dido. The plan was quite simple; it advocated for actions Finn previously had no intentions of executing. For instance, elevating the height of Floral Island. Finn initially didn’t want to do this and felt that housing many structures under the sea was sufficient. Yet, since it supposedly influences the balance of the Asia-Pacific situation, why not flaunt his speed of construction and impact it?

So Finn decided to elevate Floral Island by 20 meters. This change would expand the island’s area to approximately 30 square kilometers, stretching into an arch shape. The depth of the internal lagoon, initially between 10 and 20 meters, had undergone construction, and the coral reefs inside had been cleared up a while ago. Olivia and the others fortified the surrounding area with new materials, then crushed the coral reefs on the lagoon’s floor into powder using concentrated ultrasonic vibration. Since many areas of these coral reefs are hollow, immediately smashing them into powder reduced the lagoon floor by thirty meters, making it more than 50 meters beneath the water surface.

After elevating Floral Island, the depth of the internal lagoon exceeded 30 meters.

Nonetheless, even if they couldn’t operate openly, Finn had many ways to work around it, or rather solutions suggested by the two smart AI, Olivia and Dido. Although the main engines of Dido’s extraterrestrial spacecraft had been destroyed, there still remained two auxiliary engines. They couldn’t drive the ship forward but were usable for other actions, like triggering an artificial earthquake beneath the sea.

Since earthquakes lead to either the ascent or submersion of deep-ocean islands, all they needed was an earthquake here and to subtly elevate the ship’s height in the process, a very straightforward task.

Actually, creating an artificial earthquake isn’t difficult. Since this area is prone to earthquakes, triggering one is child’s play. Although the quake would indeed set off a tsunami, it’s a man-made one, not a real earthquake. The scale of plate elevation and changes aren’t enormous so the tsunami wouldn’t be significant either. It shouldn’t cause much disturbance.

“Young Master, we’re sure there won’t be any problems. We’ve already scanned the nearby tectonic plates using the scanning detection system on the ship. We found a suitable location so you don’t need to worry,” Olivia stated tersely.

“Alright, if there’s no issue, then I must ask the Flame Nation’s fleet to vacate this sea area. Even though it’s an artificial quake, it will still cause a tsunami,” Finn stated matter-of-factly.

After confirming there wouldn’t be a problem, Finn directly contacted Jack Lewis. He couldn’t reach anyone else.

A few days after the artificial earthquake, Floral Island’s construction was finally complete!

The entire shape of Floral Island, exposed to the outside world following the mainland’s aircraft, was quickly broadcasted worldwide through the media. The island’s design led the global populace to feel as if ten thousand majestic horses were galloping through their hearts. They were astounded at the pace of this construction, considering it had only been three months. They marveled at Finn’s capabilities and joked about whether his family knew about his proficiency.

Some resourceful media outlets even hosted live broadcasts of the news conference. Although official representatives didn’t participate this time, given Finn’s joint press conference with the authorities last time, many Flame Nation viewers had already prepared their popcorn and seats before the conference commenced.

“Haha, I must watch Mr. Finn’s press conference. I love watching him shut people up,” someone commented.
