“What’s next?”
“Is that it?”
“Is it over?”
“No! It can’t be! Why is this happening? Didn’t Oraman say he could destroy the meteorite with the energy cannon?”
“Neige was so sure that they could destroy the meteorite! Is that all the energy cannon can do? Is that your most powerful weapon?”
“Don’t make me laugh! You’ve been bragging about the energy cannon, and look what it did! That’s it! We’re all going to die! This is the end for all of us! Oraman, you’d better wish you don’t run into me in heaven. Otherwise, even God won’t save you!”
“I don’t want to die! Why is this happening? Why? Oraman, give me an explanation!”
“Explanation won’t help us now! They’ve launched five missiles, and what good did they do? Nothing!”
“Don’t rush to a conclusion yet. They still have four missiles left!”
“That’s right! We still have hope! Maybe the first one lost its power, and the remaining four will do the trick!”
…
Everybody panicked, including Oraman.
In Eternity’s control room, Oraman was throwing a tantrum, overwhelmed by his fear.
“Why is this happening? Why?!” he shouted at the scientists.
The scientists looked equally surprised. This shouldn’t be happening!
How did things turn out like this?
It didn’t make any sense!
“Mr. President, it doesn’t fit the Soanian energy contortion theorem! That’s not what we predicted!”
Oraman kicked the scientist to the ground. “Why are you telling me that? You’re the scientist! Why do I need you if I can solve the problem myself!? Why has your prediction failed? Shouldn’t you have covered all the possibilities? Why are you telling me this now? Do you think I have the answer? Take him away and execute him!”
“Please don’t do that! Mr. President, I know what’s going on!” The mention of an execution somehow gave the scientist an epiphany, and he figured out everything.
“What’s going on, then?”
“It’s a protective layer!”
“A protective layer?”
Hearing that, the other scientists discussed among themselves.
“Yes, it must be a protective layer!”
“It’s different from anything on Earth. Just like what Himmel Soan said, it’s a unique substance!”
“I didn’t expect him to be right!”
“We should have thought of that! The meteorite has been traveling in the universe for so long and survived all kinds of collisions. Apart from being very hard itself, it’s also covered by a protective layer.”
“That’s right! It has to be the case!”
…
Oraman wanted to kill those people.

“Why didn’t you think of that before? Telling me now won’t help us at all! I don’t care what you do, but you must destroy the meteorite for me!”
One of the scientists shook his head. “Mr. President, there’s nothing we can do. If the meteorite really has a protective layer, we can’t destroy it, not even with the energy cannon.”
“We can’t do anything? Why didn’t you say so earlier? What have you been doing?” Oraman started beating the scientist.
Maruse rushed over to stop him. “Mr. President, killing him won’t help us!”
Oraman pointed at the scientists. “I don’t care! I can’t die! I’ll outlive all of you! You must think of a way to keep me alive! I don’t want any more accidents!”
The scientist put a hand on his swollen cheek and said gingerly, “Mr. President, our only option now is to go to Mars. We can stay there until this blows over. Eternity still has enough fuel to get us there.”
Oraman kicked him again. “I made that up! Do you really think we can go there? How are we going to survive on Mars? Are you even a scientist? Use your brain!”
No one dared to speak a word.
What he didn’t know was that his action was being broadcasted to the whole world.
Himmel Soan had hacked the Neigerian network, and all users could have free access to the cameras on Eternity. They all saw what Oraman said and did to the scientists in the control room.
Most people were on Skynet, watching how the energy cannon was going to destroy the meteorite. However, some people were interested in something else. They remained on the Neigerian website and watched the surveillance footage of Eternity.
“It’s over. Even Oraman doesn’t know what to do.”
“He’s panicking. It means Neige can’t handle the meteorite either! Oraman even talked about fleeing to Mars!”
“What should we do now?”
“What choice do we have? We’re going to die!”
“Screw Oraman! He has no heart!”
“Cursing him won’t do us any good! Go back to your loved ones and tell them your last words. After that, find a nice spot, keep yourself comfortable, and wait for the end to come!”
…
Meanwhile, over four billion users were on Skynet. Almost all the survivors on Earth were watching the remaining four missiles. They hoped to see a miracle.
However, they were disappointed.
The four missiles performed just like the first one. They exploded when they hit the meteorite.
That was it.
No damage was done.
The human race had put all their hope in those missiles.
Oraman lost all hope when he saw this. “Get Eternity airborne! We’re leaving for Mars!”

That was the only option now.
Oraman commanded the scientists.
Maruse was surprised. “Mr. President, are we really going to Mars?”
“We still have some hope on Mars. Staying on Earth will only get us killed. We can always come back if Earth still exists after this. As for whether we’ll survive on Mars, it’ll be up to fate. Maybe we’ll mutate in some way and adapt to the new environment.”
That was his last bet.
