The Entire Mankind is Acting As Me, I Shall Secretly Build a Battleship and Shock the World

Chapter 8: The Old Professor’s Shock!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Over at a research institute in the United States, an old man with white hair and a face full of wrinkles was alarmed.

He came before the live broadcast and watched Raymond’s every move.

Gradually, he became more and more shocked.

“He really drew a design for a rocket engine! He managed that just by reading a few books???”

“No, this is not right. His design plan shows an improved version of the engine. It almost solves all the shortcomings of a current rocket engine!”

“For example, the ignition pressure cycle can’t react with the fuel and oxidant. Meanwhile, the pipes, fuel, and oxidant tank must be able to withstand a certain amount of high temperature and pressure.

“Another instance is the shortcoming of the expansion and extrusion cycle. The regenerative cooling system is too complicated!

“Also, the existence of the liquid-born pipes don’t completely comply with the third law of mechanics...

“He actually... He actually completely overcame these shortcomings?

“Hurry! Hurry up and prepare a piece of paper in the same size for me. I want to personally draw the same engine design as this person!”

The old man had an excited expression, and his voice sounded like a low growl.

A similar scene unfolded almost all over the world, especially in the major countries.

Nearly every talent in this field was mobilized.

Without a doubt, these people started to follow Raymond step by step once they became aware of him.

Although verification was still needed on whether it could be improved, Raymond’s blueprint was already the most correct guide.

An improved version of a rocket engine was just too important.

If achieving human flight was going from zero to one, then an improved rocket engine was also a jump from one to two!

The news could not be hidden.

When news of these scientists drawing Raymond’s blueprint spread, the world once again went into an uproar!

“Oh, my God, it can’t be that serious, right? Is this young man from the slums playing for real?”

“There are already many videos on the Internet that show proof of some scientists following Raymond’s blueprint. Even if he isn’t playing for real, it doesn’t look like he’s faking it!”

Soon, Raymond finished drawing the last stroke.

Right then, the design of an engine fully materialized on the piece of paper that was four to five square meters in size.

The neat lines were extremely detailed, depicting everything from the overall outline to every screw.

Raymond put down the pencil, and his right hand felt a little numb.

Shaking his hand, Raymond thought to himself, ‘System, can you check it?’

After all, he had drawn the design based on the knowledge in his mind. He did not know if it would be practical or not.

Now that he could not ask others for help, Raymond could only get the system to check it.

[Host, the design is perfect. Once the engine is made according to this blueprint, it can be used!]

Raymond breathed a sigh of relief.

In just a few hours, he had gone from being a noob to drawing the design of a rocket engine.

No matter how he thought about it, it felt like a dream.

However, humans had suddenly vanished from the world, so what else could he not accept?

‘What else do I need to learn next?’ Raymond asked again.

[Please learn mathematics and physics next, host.]

The system then issued him another mission.

‘Okay,’ Raymond agreed silently.

Outside, in the international live broadcast room...

Maggie said, “It’s 11 o’clock sharp for our international event. Three hours have passed since the program started.”

“Among the five contestants, one has been smashing things up to vent his anger, the second has been shooting into the sky, the third has been aimlessly walking on the streets like a walking corpse, and the fourth has been looking for supplies and food...

“As for the fifth...

“The contestant from the American slums, Raymond, has done something beyond the people’s expectations, and it’s been extremely controversial.

“According to the latest news from the program team, the design of the rocket engine that he drew has been repeatedly verified, and it can, in fact, be manufactured.

“Plus, this design of his has improved upon all the shortcomings of current engines, and it has been praised by countless scientists!”

The global audience was once again in an uproar.

They had originally thought that Raymond had gone crazy, and it never occurred to them that the design he had drawn was actually real!

How old was he?

He was only twenty-two years old.

Furthermore, before he started drawing the design, he had only come into brief contact with the relevant books!

Before him, countless scientists had carried out experiments and research, yet they had not been able to improve the rocket engine.

On the other hand, Raymond had used this little window of time to learn the required knowledge and was already able to draw a blueprint for an improved version of the rocket engine!

It was too unbelievable, too awesome!

“Good God, I watched this program to see the evil side of human nature, but Raymond wants me to see how he designs an engine?”

“So what if he drew a blueprint for a rocket engine? He can’t possibly think that he’ll be able to survive just because of that, right? As expected, the mind of the poor can never grasp the main point.”

There were still people who mocked Raymond.

These people were a little twisted.

They thought that the poor individuals from the slums could not perform well, so they should perform horribly and be ridiculed, as well as criticized, by the rest.

Now, however, Raymond had performed very well.

It was like a direct slap to their faces, preventing them from saying the words that filled their stomachs.

How could they stand it?

Therefore, the better Raymond performed, the more uncomfortable they felt, and the more they wanted to ridicule and slander him!

“Anyway, now that Raymond has proven himself to be talented, will he continue to participate in the program?” a netizen asked.

Actually, many viewers were also puzzled about this.

Logically speaking, such a talent would definitely enter the Academy of Sciences, enjoy excellent treatment, and contribute to the country.

Would he continue to participate in the program then?

However, at that moment, someone posted a tweet.

“I think that since we have selected a certain contestant, we should go through with it. At the very least, we must persevere through this first season. If there’s a change in contestant midway, we might as well not watch this program!”

Although this tweet had just been posted, it had already occupied the top searches. Comments, likes, and reposts had reached close to ten million in number.

Many people supported the poster’s point of view.

“Hehe, who posted this? Their intentions are sinister.”

“It should be one of those so-called rich people who are waiting to see Raymond make a fool of himself.”

“Not everyone hopes for good things in the world, and not everyone hopes to see Raymond showcase his excellence. The more outstanding Raymond is, the more uncomfortable it will be for those who don’t like him, and the more they’ll hate him.”

“They might even accuse Yang of being a threat to Raymond’s safety if he continues to do better!”

“Sigh, I even feel a little sorry for him. He hasn’t done anything wrong. His only fault is being someone from the slums. Plus, he’s so talented.”

“Yeah, when your background doesn’t match your talent, danger comes knocking.”
