Chapter 221 – World Creation (2)

“Sure enough, it really is this thing. Amazing.”

Chen Yu slowly turned the box around and displayed its front to the camera. “It’s Hogwarts! A Super Floating Castle!”

[Oooh~~]

[…Lego is awesome.]

[So, the whole box is filled with building blocks?]

[Crazy!]

[A floating castle? Can it really float?]

[I’m selling my house to buy Lego stocks now.]

[Did Lego bribe the host?]

[Isn’t this a little too crazy? How large would the castle be once it’s pieced together? Can people live on it?]

[The host already said it’s a 1:1 scale floating castle.]

“I’m sure everyone is familiar with the Lego Company. It’s a world-renowned toy company. The toy building blocks launched by the company are sold all over the world. And t seems the company will be the sponsor for today’s livestream.”

After giving the audience a 360-degree view of the box, Chen Yu removed the seal and opened the box, revealing the several dozen instruction manuals stored within it.

Grabbing the book labeled with the number ‘1’, Chen Yu flipped to the first page. To his surprise, the Lego logo printed on the page actually jumped out of the paper and hopped between the page and cover.

“This is…a hologram?” Chen Yu couldn’t help but be surprised.

When he turned to the second page, numerous images emerged from the book. There was even a virtual avatar of Harry Potter riding around on a magic broom, and this avatar circled above Chen Yu’s head while yelling, “Death is but the next great adventure!”

Chen Yu felt as if he had just opened the rumored book of magic…

“A combination of books and holograms…”

Hurriedly, he set the book down on the ground and tried touching the pages. Afterward, he pinched the Harry Potter hovering above him before exclaiming, “Crap! He has a physical body! He’s not a hologram! Damn… Is reading such an experience in the future?”

Poof!

Suddenly, the Harry Potter avatar disappeared in a puff of smoke and reappeared standing on the book’s page. The avatar then swung his wand at Chen Yu while chanting, “Avada Kedavra!”

Chen Yu: “…If I suddenly die, then this might as well be the product of God.”

“What the fuck?” As if he had just witnessed something unbelievable, the Harry Potter avatar stumbled backward. He then flew back into the page and turned into a sticker.

“What the fuck?! Is this something Harry Potter should say?!” Chen Yu ranted.

[I don’t need the floating castle. I’m fine with just that book.]

[I don’t need the whole book. Just give me one of those pages. It’s best if there’s a female character on it. I wanna see how realistic it is.]

[I really, really regret being born in this world so soon!]

[Humans of the future really are blessed.]

[When will you review a time machine? Take us to the future for a tour.]

[Looking at the technological content of that book, I bet it’s a product from the year 2500 or beyond…]

After experiencing the instruction manual’s novelty, Chen Yu turned to the third page. Immediately afterward, bubbles containing texts floated out of the page.

Every bubble represented a language.

(English.)

(한국어.)

(En français.)

(Deutsch.)

(العربية.)

(简体中文…)

Chen Yu naturally chose Chinese without hesitation. The next moment, the words on the page instantly got translated into Chinese.

“That’s it for the unboxing session. Once I finish reading the instruction manual, I’ll give everyone an introduction and evaluate the product.”

Sitting cross-legged, Chen Yu quickly flipped through the pages. After spending 10 minutes listening to music and watching special effects and animations, Chen Yu finished reading the first instruction manual.

Boom.

Tossing the manual back into the box, Chen Yu stood up and faced the camera. “Hogwarts–Super Floating Castle is a part of the Lego Company’s Harry Potter series, and it is produced in the year 3172. Those pixel blocks are made out of a material called Type-VV solid aerogel. The building blocks are also integrated with liquid nanoworms. Once the assembly is completed, the user can change the building blocks’ shape and texture through the programmed procedures.

“For example, if a part of the completed structure is designated to be water, once the assembly is completed, that designated part will really become water. The same is also true for the parts designated to be clouds.

“As for the magicians inside Hogwarts, they will naturally come to life as well. So, we’ll have a chance to ‘pinch’ a real Harry Potter.”

[My world view…]

[Are you sure this is something that exists in 3172?]

[Human technology has already developed into the supernatural in the 32nd century. Is there any difference between this and world creation?]

[Does that mean ordinary people that enter the castle can use magic as well?]

[I doubt even children of the 32nd century can complete such a big project, right?]

[It’s obviously sold to playful adults…]

“With my current physics knowledge, I can’t even begin to imagine how the form and nature of matter can be changed at will. However, this isn’t a crucial matter. What we need to focus on is simply to review and use this product. As for the underlying principles, it has nothing to do with us.

“Right, as a side note…”

Pointing at the protective suit he wore, Chen Yu said, “When I evaluated this armor in the fourth official livestream, I once introduced that the substance that fills this armor is also called solid aerogel. However, the model used in the armor is only Type-VI.

“The Super Floating Castle has a total of 216,000 integrated boxes, which are these things,” Chen Yu said as he picked up a 50-meter-long box, the sight looking as if an ant was lifting a car. “Every integrated box contains 125 marker boxes. And inside the marker boxes are Lego’s building blocks.

“Every marker box has at least four building blocks. A conservative estimate puts the floating castle at 108 million pieces. Meanwhile, the official figure is 110 million.”

Setting down the integrated box, Chen Yu couldn’t help but click his tongue and exclaim, “A total of 110 million building blocks. What a scary number. However, if we successfully assemble all the building blocks, we’ll get a 1:0.3 Hogwarts Floating Castle.

“There will definitely be someone among the bullet comments asking why it isn’t a 1:1 ratio.

“The 1:1 ratio refers to the ratio after the castle expands. During the assembly phase, the castle will just be one-third of the original size. Once the assembly is completed, the building blocks will release the concentrated hydrogen gas stored inside them, expanding the castle and allowing the castle to stay suspended in the sky!

“It is possible to adjust the castle’s floating altitude by manipulating the hydrogen ratio in the main control room. The castle can go as low as zero meters off the ground and as high as outside the atmosphere.

“Alright.”

Chen Yu clapped his hands and spread his arms before the camera. “That’s it for the product’s introduction. The next part is to conduct a live test. A bona fide magical floating castle. If it wasn’t sitting right before my eyes, I would’ve never imagined that such a magical toy could exist.

There are 216,000 integrated boxes and 110 million building blocks. Even a fool can tell that I won’t be able to finish assembling the castle together with my assistant. Obviously, we must seek the help of the audience. This will be the largest interactive event we have ever held.

“Well then, are you guys ready?

“Together, let’s create a real, spectacular, and fantastical floating castle…”
