Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 191 Don't pull me!
Jiang Yang knew that he didn't have much longer to live.

When the black hole tore apart and devoured Earth, the radiation from the accretion disk was enough to scorch the moon. Now that the moon has also been swallowed, it will inevitably be scorched as well.

Both the Earth and the Moon are matter; it's impossible for the Moon's matter to be of a lower grade.

Jiang Yang sighed inwardly, preparing himself for death.

"Being roasted to death by high-energy radiation is probably not as comfortable as being suffocated in a vacuum."

I'll just take off my helmet then, since I won't be able to see much in the last little bit of time anyway..."

Jiang Yang pondered this in his heart and slowly made up his mind.

Once the cooling system stored in his spacesuit is depleted and the temperature begins to rise, he will remove his space helmet.

But something else unexpected happened.

The cold source had not yet been exhausted, and his body temperature was still relatively suitable. Just then, Jiang Yang suddenly heard the spacesuit making some metallic creaking sounds.

Ok?
The next moment, he felt as if something was pulling his legs with great force, which caused him some pain.

what the hell!

Startled, Jiang Yang quickly realized what was happening.

Tidal forces!

The tidal forces that previously tore the moon apart are now acting on me!

Jiang Yang knew that the Roche limit was not a fixed value, but a value that varied depending on the structural strength and size of the object.

The structural strength of my body is obviously inferior to that of lunar rocks. But even with the spacesuit, my length is only a little over 1.8 meters, which is much, much smaller than the moon's diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers.

It possesses enough power to tear the moon apart, yet not enough to tear itself apart.

But I never expected the tidal forces to strengthen so quickly that they became painful...

It seems that I am approaching the black hole faster than I expected.

Jiang Yang's mind raced, and he immediately adjusted his posture, standing upright and curling up as much as possible.

Thus, the tidal force weakened again, and the pain caused by the violent pulling disappeared instantly.

But the relief was short-lived, lasting less than ten seconds, before the pain returned to his back.

It felt as if countless suction cups were forcefully pulling at the flesh and blood on my back.

At the same time, the spacesuit emitted another piercing creaking sound.

Damn it, there's nothing we can do about it...

Jiang Yang gave up all resistance.

The next moment, a loud bang was heard, and the back structure of the spacesuit was instantly sucked away, while a sharp, tearing pain came from his back.

Consciousness began to gradually blur, and the feeling of swelling and saliva boiling returned.

The spacesuit has been damaged, and the inside has become a vacuum.

However, before the vacuum could kill Jiang Yang, and before the black hole could truly tear Jiang Yang apart, the deadly radiation had already taken effect on him.

The next moment, Jiang Yang completely lost consciousness.

……

The next moment, consciousness slowly returned to Jiang Yang's body.

Opening his eyes, Jiang Yang once again saw the familiar face of Shen Wei, the director of the hibernation base.

"Comrade Jiang Yang, this is your 237th time waking up from hibernation. How do you feel?"

Black holes, bright stars, a torn moon, a spacesuit ripped apart by tidal forces, and his own torn body... A flood of memories rushed into Jiang Yang's mind, making his breathing quicken again.

"The end is coming!"

Shen Wei's smile froze instantly. Almost instinctively, he pulled over the sketching table next to him.

As per training requirements, once Jiang Yang conveyed the message that the end of the world was imminent, a sketching table was always kept next to the hibernation pod in order to enable Jiang Yang to write down the information about his previous life's memories as quickly as possible.

But this time, Jiang Yang did not pick up a pen to write.

My body, which has just emerged from hibernation, is still a little sore and tired.

Looking at the spacious, bright, clean, and warm hibernation hall in front of him, he breathed heavily and lay down on the bed in the hibernation pod again, slowly calming himself down.

At this moment, the entire hibernation hall was completely silent, and everyone subconsciously slowed their breathing.

Jiang Yang then took a few minutes to recover.

"Notify your superiors to call a meeting."

"Yes!"

After a series of preparations, the many faces that Jiang Yang was already familiar with reappeared on the large screen in the video conference room.

"This isn't the first time I've done this on repeat."

Jiang Yang gave a wry smile: "At first, we thought that what caused this apocalypse was a massive earthquake that covered the entire globe, and that the cause came from the mantle."

In the next cycle, I arrived at Earth-6 space station, only to discover that even in space, one can be affected by the apocalypse, and the energy causing the mantle fluctuations comes from the sun.

In another cycle, I arrived on the moon, only to discover that even the moon couldn't escape this apocalypse.

The real cause of the apocalypse is not the mantle, not the sun, but... black holes.

A black hole suddenly appeared in our solar system, and its gravity instantly acted on the Earth, causing what we mistakenly perceived as a global earthquake. But this was merely the prelude to the Earth being torn apart.

Subsequently, Earth was completely swallowed by the black hole, and the energy from the accretion disk scorched the surface of the moon, causing electromagnetic disturbances that prevented scientists in the lunar city from leaving and conducting observations.

Then, the black hole also swallowed the moon and killed me…

Jiang Yang murmured, recounting all the intelligence he had discovered in the previous few cycles.

This took several hours.

After that, the conference room fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone remained silent.

But Jiang Yang knew that probably no one could remain as calm inside as they appeared on the surface.

People silently digested this information. After a long while, a scientist asked in a low voice, "Comrade Jiang Yang, are you sure that black hole appeared suddenly?"

“I can confirm it.”

Jiang Yang gave a definite answer without hesitation: "Otherwise, how could we have failed to discover it in advance?"

A black hole, even one with the mass of Earth, can be detected if it is located close to the solar system, even if it is billions of kilometers away.

Because its mass is sufficient to cause disturbances to low-mass objects in the Kuiper Belt or asteroid belt of the solar system.

By analyzing their orbits, although it is absolutely impossible to see a black hole, it is equally easy to pinpoint its exact location, orbit, and accurately calculate its mass.

At this moment, until the black hole appeared, humanity was completely unaware of it, and even had to rely on several cycles to pinpoint the culprit, which in turn undoubtedly proved its words.

This black hole suddenly appeared in the solar system, right next to Earth.
