Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix-Chapter 1025: Calculations

The selection of destinations weighed heavily on Rain's mind. He thought over the places they needed to investigate, taking into account the potential dangers, resources, and information that each location might offer. The vastness of the uncharted territories presented a difficult challenge, and Rain aimed to optimize their route for efficiency and safety.

Calculating travel times became a hard task as well, involving not only the vessel's speed but also factoring in potential detours, anomalies, and the overall unpredictability of space. Rain's proficiency with mana played a crucial role in these calculations, as he sought to maximize the efficiency of the vessel's movement systems while minimizing the strain on its energy reserves.

As the hours passed, Rain immersed himself in the intricacies of these calculations. Space travel, it turned out, was a multifaceted puzzle, requiring a blend of scientific knowledge, strategic planning, and a touch of intuition. Fortunately, the relics helped him with that. Sakaki, despite being a retard, helped a lot.

"The overseer probably can tell to which direction the dragon god and the other dragons went when they left the planet… but planets don't stay still, so that won't help a lot," Sakaki said. "Still, we don't have to be in a hurry, finding resources on empty planets will be useful too."

Rain nodded… creating everything with magic wasn't possible… yet. Still, they would benefit a lot from saving as much mana as possible. It also would help people work on some things while they traveled without any issues.

"That being said, I am pretty sure that you can find traces of the fire dragons on Mercury and Venus," Sakaki said. "They are a bit far away as well, but you can find traces of ice dragons on Uranus and Neptune."

"Do they love radiation that much? Why would the ice dragons need to trave such a distance, the void of space is plenty cold already." Larisa said.

"It is thanks to the environment, just being cold isn't enough for them," Sakaki said. "The atmosphere of Uranus is primarily composed of hydrogen and helium with traces of methane, water, and ammonia. The presence of methane gives Uranus its distinctive blue-green color. The atmosphere also contains clouds, primarily made up of methane crystals.

Uranus has a frigid environment, with temperatures dropping as low as -224 degrees Celsius. Despite its distance from the Sun, Uranus does not follow the typical pattern of temperature decrease with distance, and the reasons for this are not fully understood. Still, it is classified as an ice giant… the perfect place for ice dragons, right?"

"I suppose…" Larisa said.

"Due to its lack of a significant atmosphere to retain and distribute heat, Mercury experiences extreme temperature variations. Daytime temperatures on the side facing the Sun can soar up to around 430 degrees Celsius while nighttime temperatures on the side facing away from the Sun can plummet to about -180 degrees Celsius," Sakaki said.

"If they didn't have to move too much all day, I thought that even ice dragons could be there as well. But the fire dragons won't find that an issue since they can move pretty fast when they are being energized with that much energy."

" Now you are just showing off your big brain. Regardless, investigating those places will require some serious gear… can even Rain's domain withstand that?" Nigel asked. "If a fight breaks, they will be limited as well.'

"You have Hephaestus, you can use him for that," Sakaki said.

"Calling me that makes me cringe, Zeus," Maxime said. "Instead of assuming that title because you think it is cool, it must be because you probably can't keep your pants up…"

"I am not that popular… and I am starting to cringe a bit as well," Sakaki said. "Regardless, your barrier can probably withstand approaching the sun that much, but it will consume ten times more mana. There was also the problem of light as well."

"Everyone will have to wear sunglasses for a while, I guess… but we won't approach that much," Rain said. "I just want to check things there from their activity, I find improbable that they are still there, so it won't take long this investigation."

"As for the calculations regarding movement speed, mana consumption and time… using half of the mana produced by this domain, you can keep a stable speed of ten thousand kilometers per second," Sakaki said. "Not bad when Earth moves at thirty kilometers per second."

"Can we really move that fast?" Larisa furrowed her eyebrows.

"How long until we reach Mercury with that speed?" Rain asked.

"Explain that outloud would take too long, it is better to show the calculations directly, I will show you a diagram here." Sakaki said. "The average distance from Earth to Mercury is about 149 million kilometers. Substituting this value into the formula:

Time=149,000,000 km /1,000 km/s

"So, it would take approximately 149,000 seconds to travel from Earth to Mercury at a constant speed of 1,000 kilometers per second. To convert this to minutes, divide by 60," Sakaki added.

Time (minutes)=149,000 s60 s/min

Time (minutes)= 60s/min /149,000s

​

Time (minutes)≈2,483.33 min

To convert this to hours, divide by 60 again:​

Time (hours)≈41.39hours

"As expected of an Asian, you sure do know your math," Rain said. "Anyway, don't show me math anymore, just tell me the final results the next time."

"I find that a bit offensive," Sakaki said. "Talk about making use of other people's hard work and ignoring their process… were you cancelled back in the day with that kind of attitude?"

Speaking of which, Sakaki showed his true apeparace. He truly looked like an ordinary japanese dude, but he was pretty buffed considering that he was a massive otaku as well. He had this stylish black long hair that covered a bit of his right eye… he definitely was copying some kind of fictional character.

He was that type of guy, after all… in any case, Rain wondered if his life would get easier with his help…
