Chapter 411 - 269: Shatter the Darkness with Thunder!_2
This is the thermal effect of lightning.
When lightning strikes an object, the extremely high current it carries passes through the object in a very short time.
According to Joule’s Law, current passing through a resistor generates heat, with the amount of heat produced being directly proportional to the square of the current, the resistance, and the time.
This means that even with a very short duration, a high current can produce tremendous amounts of heat in an instant.
If lightning strikes a human body, the rapid heating of the surface can cause serious skin burns. The heat generated as the current passes through the interior of the body can damage muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and internal organs, and in severe cases, the tissues and organs under the skin can become carbonized.
In extreme cases, the heat produced by lightning is sufficient to vaporize blood instantly, leading to a dramatic increase in internal pressure, possibly causing a "lightning explosion" effect and fatal injuries.
Such effects are terrifying!
However...
If that’s all there is to it, it definitely wouldn’t be as powerful as Chen Yun’s thermal sight.
After all, when it comes to heating alone, this lightning is nowhere near the thermal sight.
Such destructive power.
