Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones - Chapter 419: Global Monsoon
As these giant exhaust machines began operating, a series of peculiar phenomena occurred within the atmosphere of the ice giant.
Under the combined attraction of fan suction, gravity, and electromagnetic adsorption, the gases within the ice giant’s atmosphere—a mixture of methane, water ice, helium, hydrogen, and other substances—instantly surged towards the pipe entrance, as if a black hole capable of containing infinite matter had appeared out of thin air, forcibly drawing them in.
An unparalleled gale instantly erupted in this area.
The climate on the ice giant was already harsh, with gales, torrential rain, and thunderstorms never ceasing.
While the winds on it didn’t break the sound barrier, reaching over 250 meters per second was effortless. According to Earth’s wind speed classification, a wind speed exceeding 250 meters per second would be considered a Category 40 storm.
Such wind forces are entirely impossible on Earth because Earth lacks the environment to foster them.
The theoretical maximum wind force that can occur on Earth is approximately Category 20.
Under the onslaught of these Category 40 gales, these colossal exhaust machines began to operate. At that moment, the wind speed in the area near the exhaust machine entrances surged again, instantly climbing above the speed of sound.
The gases rubbed violently, their temperature instantly soaring from tens of degrees below zero Celsius to over 200 degrees Celsius.
Accompanying the temperature changes, and influenced by conductivity, electric charge, and friction, an unprecedented, furious lightning storm descended upon this region.
Various extreme meteorological phenomena churned the 5 million square kilometers occupied by the ten thousand colossal exhaust machines into utter chaos.
But no matter how severe the meteorological conditions, these colossal exhaust machines operated steadily, completely unaffected by the external environment.
These were super machines manufactured using Moraise civilization technology!
It might seem simple for Tom to manufacture them, even entrusting most of the work to Primal, but these are the tangible culmination of all the technology Tom has developed over tens of thousands of years!
Even in the harsher environment of a star’s surface, they could maintain normal operation for a period. How could a little ’breeze and drizzle’ on a small ice giant possibly damage them?
Infinite gases and various icy compounds poured into the pipes, where they began to undergo acceleration from pressure, electromagnetism, and gravity combined.
Their density and pressure rapidly increased, and their speed also soared. This meant immense pressure and friction on the pipe walls; even the strongest steel containers from Earth would likely be instantly ruptured if brought here.
But the pipe walls, made of Strong Nuclear materials, steadily bore this high temperature and pressure, experiencing almost no deformation.
Since the pipe walls couldn’t be breached, the pressure could only be vented towards the exit. So these gases rushed towards the exit at an increasing speed, eventually exceeding the ice giant’s escape velocity.
They ultimately gushed out at a speed of 21 kilometers per second, like a burst dam, flying violently away from the planet and never to return.
Each of these colossal exhaust machines had a diameter of 32 meters, giving a cross-sectional area of approximately 800 square meters. Calculating with a gas flow rate of 21 kilometers per second, a single exhaust machine ejected approximately 15 million tons of gas into space per second. Ten thousand units would eject 150 billion tons!
Even if Tom didn’t add more exhaust machines, these ten thousand alone would be enough to completely drain all the mass from this ice giant in about 18,000 years.
Compared to the billions of years in the age of natural celestial bodies, 18,000 years is nothing at all.
But Tom didn’t even want to wait that short amount of time.
On the rocky planet, large-scale construction and production continued. In just one month, the second batch of colossal exhaust machines was transported to this ice giant.
And the number of exhaust machines in this batch was no longer ten thousand or twenty thousand, but... one million!
After they began operating, the total mass of gas ejected into space—never to return—immediately increased from the previous 150 billion tons per second to approximately 15 trillion tons per second!
The array of 1.01 million colossal exhaust machines occupied an area of approximately 500 million square kilometers, accounting for about 7.6% of the ice giant’s total surface area.
But even such a small percentage of the surface area now caused effects that spread across the entire planet.
This ice giant also had "monsoons." Depending on seasonal changes and the amount of stellar energy received, it often experienced global winds with generally fixed directions and strengths, either from left to right or right to left.
But at this moment, Tom forcibly reversed the direction of these monsoons. The global monsoon that originally blew from the North Pole to the South Pole now blew from all directions across the globe towards this area, which accounted for only 7.6% of the total global area. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Because the pressure here was lowest, and gases move from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.
It was like a whirlpool appearing in a pond, with all the water converging towards it.
With a total of 1.01 million colossal exhaust machines drawing gas simultaneously, 15 trillion tons per second, or approximately 130 quintillion tons of gas entering space daily, this finally brought significant changes to the other celestial bodies in space.
The gases moved at extremely high speeds and carried a large amount of electric charge. And around this ice giant, there were numerous moons and a planetary ring.
First affected was the planetary ring, primarily composed of interstellar dust and small celestial bodies ranging in size from a few millimeters to tens of meters.
Although they were in a vacuum, and these gases extracted from the ice giant would diffuse into interstellar dust upon entering the vacuum, this interstellar dust still brought unavoidable impacts to them.
Under the heat and electrical charge generated by the high-speed impacts of these gas and dust molecules, the dust in the planetary ring gained higher kinetic energy, immediately breaking free from its original orbit and being swept by these "gales" into the deeper reaches of space.
The larger small celestial bodies quickly met the same fate.
Just like ’weathering’ on Earth, under the impact and abrasion of these high-speed dust particles, their volume became smaller and smaller, eventually disappearing completely.
They also turned into fine dust, merging with the gases.
