Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 1553: 733

Subsequently, the staff members immediately reported the measurements, "Above, gravity is 7.3 times stronger!"

"7.3 times? That high?"

Zhao Yi was very surprised to hear the numbers but soon saw changes occurring in the experimental area. The giant metal ball, originally placed on the ground, seemed to be set mid-air, rapidly ’free falling’ upwards.

It wasn’t just floating up slowly, but accelerating upwards; it would appear normal if viewed in reverse, but looking at it normally, it was very odd.

The space between the two devices was empty.

As the giant metal ball passed the middle part, it then started to decelerate rapidly. When it had reached nearly two meters from the upper edge, it slowed to a stop and then began accelerating downwards.

Next, once it reached the bottom, it decelerated again, but this time it landed on the ground, accompanied by a resounding vibration, and then immediately surged upward with increasing speed.

This scene looked as if the metal ball was being swung, except it was swinging vertically, and it was a huge metal ball, with a diameter of about half a meter, certainly very heavy.

The swinging of the metal ball continued for twenty minutes, and everyone outside could continuously see it oscillating, but eventually, it was brought under control and stopped. It finally rested between the two devices, slightly towards the bottom, with most of the ball in the area between the two devices, and the remaining part below.

This position had reached a point of balance. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

A staff member explained to those who did not understand, "The gravity in the central area of the device is normal, now at a maximum of 7.3, whereas the gravity below is upward, 5.3 times that of Earth’s. Therefore, most of the ball is in the middle, subject to normal Earth’s gravity, but the upward gravity below is stronger."

Everyone was amazed by the sight of the metal ball hovering, even the personnel involved in the experiment. Despite being somewhat prepared for the outcome, the sight of the ball swinging back and forth and hovering was still very novel.

At that moment, Zhao Yi instructed to slowly reduce the power of the device, which meant gradually decreasing the generated gravity.

As the power of the device decreased, combined with the closure of a few internal openings, the generated gravity quickly dropped.

Very quickly.

The staff members alerted, "The gravity generated now is twice that of Earth’s."

"Stop it there!"

Zhao Yi issued the command to temporarily halt the device’s operation and immediately proceeded with the next experiment.

A piece of board was brought over, transported into the experimental area by a machine, positioned horizontally beneath the two devices, and then firmly fixed in place.

This way, there was a connection below the device, like an inverted bridge.

Then, Zhao Yi restarted the device, still generating twice the gravity.

A military-uniformed personnel with a police dog came over, a clear look of concern on his face.

Zhao Yi smiled and patted the head of the police dog, saying, "Don’t worry, there will be no problems. There’s no radiation, no high magnetic fields inside, just normal fluctuations in gravity. If it falls from a few meters up in the air, it shouldn’t get hurt, right?"

The military person confirmed, "No, Stone is very agile."

"Its name is Stone?"

"Yes, Academician Zhao."

"Good name, then let’s go." Zhao Yi patted the police dog’s head again and then directed the military personnel to take it over.

The military personnel was still hesitant, worried that there might be a problem inside. He had clearly seen a huge iron ball swinging up and down inside just before.

Now that there was a board added above, could Stone get hurt by hitting the board?

Even though he was very worried, obeying orders was his duty, so he let Stone go forward while he walked around the device to the other side.

Stone, upon receiving the command, immediately moved forward. It seemed to sense danger, pausing in place for a moment before continuing to step forward.

Suddenly, it felt something was not right, as if its body had been placed upside down in the air. It quickly twisted its body to ’right itself,’ but in the process, it had already landed on ’the ground,’ which was actually a slab of ash-grey board.

Stone almost landed on its two feet and wasn’t injured, just feeling very strange. It glanced left and right, noticing that distant people, plants, and machinery all appeared upside down.

It was so amazed that its eyes bulged, and it felt like all its fur was standing on end. Then it stayed motionless on the spot, seemingly sensing danger.

"Stone, come here!"

At that moment, a familiar voice called from a distance.

Seeing the sound source from afar, Stone seemed to finally muster the courage to run toward ’the upside-down master.’

It didn’t run fast, but since the distance was only about ten meters, it arrived quickly.

Then Stone hesitated again.

Its master stood ’below’ inverted, with what appeared to be familiar ground even further down. Its surroundings were incredibly odd, yet it eventually gathered the courage to jump forward forcefully, crossing the range of altered gravity.

All at once, the world spun around!

Gravity returned below, and Stone felt as if it had been placed upside down in the air once more, but with prior experience, it flipped much faster, and finally, all four legs hit the ground, completing what seemed like a performance.
