Cutting-edge Technology: I Provide the Brains, the State Provides Everything

194: On the eve of departure, Long Weiguo’s last words of advice!When Lu Chen’s ultimate declaration, filled with divine arrogance and contempt—“vanish completely from this universe”—clearly echoed in the command bridge of the Scavenger civilization’s Reconnaissance Vessel via the Universal Language, the ugly, octopus-like alien was utterly stunned!

It stared blankly at the silver-white phantom on the screen—the vessel that had instantly transformed from a harmless “little white rabbit” into a terrifying war behemoth capable of tearing apart stars!

Its eight sticky tentacles were trembling violently!

Its brain, three times the size of a human’s, completely crashed at this moment!

What the hell?!

What kind of Divine Civilization is this?!

How are they even more unreasonable than the Scavengers?!

More barbaric?!

More like bandits?!

And at this moment, aboard the command bridge of the expedition.

The hundred Xia Kingdom Soldier Kings who had just completed their ultimate evolution!

After personally witnessing the “miraculous” on-the-spot demonic modification of their invincible flagship!

Every single one of them was pumped up with adrenaline!

Their eyes were bloodshot!

Their breathing was rapid!

And they roared madly!

“Holy crap! What did I just see?! A Star Destroyer Cannon?! We actually have a Star Destroyer Cannon?!”

“Hahahaha! That’s incredible! Truly incredible! With this thing, why should we fear those damn aliens?!”

“Academician Lu! Give the order! Let’s blast them!”

“Blast that ugly octopus into cosmic dust!”

In an instant! The tense atmosphere on the entire command bridge caused by the encounter with an alien civilization vanished completely! It was replaced by a sick, maniacal war

fervor, full of violent aesthetics!

However,

just as they were frantically clamoring to “fight” the aliens,

a voice, calm as if untouched by the mundane world, suddenly rang out.

“Quiet, everyone.”

It was Lu Chen.

He slowly shook his head, looking at the “New Recruits” in front of him who had become overly inflated after just gaining immense power.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his dark eyes, vast as the universe.

“A bunch of idiots.”

His cold, emotionless evaluation,

was like a basin of Liquid Nitrogen at minus two hundred degrees Celsius!

Instantly extinguishing all the

fervor in the hearts of all the Super Soldiers present!

They all went red in the face, like ducks whose necks had been squeezed!

Yet, they couldn’t utter a single word!

“Did you really think...”

Lu Chen sneered disdainfully, looking at these “babies” who possessed divine power but whose minds were still mush.

“...that we were guaranteed to win?”

“Do you know where we are right now?”

“We are in a dark forest filled with unknowns and dangers!”

“And we...”

“are a group of people who have just learned to make fire.”

“Primitives!”

“And that so-called ‘Scavenger’...”

“is only a ‘Savage’ who is slightly stronger than us.”

“But!”

His voice became incredibly cold and cruel!

“How many terrifying, powerful

“Hunters are hidden in this dark forest, stronger than us and stronger than the Scavenger?!”

“We don’t know!”

“And once we carelessly fire a shot here today,”

“our location will be completely exposed!”

“When that happens, what awaits us won’t be the cheers of victory!”

“But...”

“a swarm of more greedy and more cruel ‘Sharks’ who have smelled blood,”

“Sharks!”

“and the ultimate annihilation”

“that could completely wipe out our entire civilization!”

Boom!!!

This cold reality, full of the dark forest Law!

Was like the sharpest scalpels!

They plunged fiercely into the hearts of all the hot-headed Super Soldiers present!

Completely dissecting and crushing their ridiculous pride and arrogance!

They finally understood.

They were wrong.

Terribly wrong!

They were like three-year-old children who had just acquired an AK-47!

Only thinking about how to show off the powerful

weapon in their hands!

But they never considered that,

in this jungle fraught with peril,

carelessly exposing one’s strength

was such a foolish and fatal

act!

“T-then, Academician Lu, what should we do?”

A young Super Soldier’s voice was trembling!

“It’s simple.”

A curve full of wisdom and cunning appeared at the corner of Lu Chen’s mouth!

“To kill someone,”

“you don’t necessarily need a knife.”

As soon as he finished speaking,

he slowly raised his hand and gently snapped his fingers in the air!

“heavenly craft.”

“Activate the pangu Virtual Intrusion Program!”

“I want to know all the

“secrets inside that ugly octopus’s brain within one minute!”

Meanwhile, at this moment.

On Earth, in the Kunlun Mountain Underground Base.

Long Weiguo was watching the “First Contact” live broadcast, relayed in real-time by heavenly craft, on the light screen in front of him, his expression solemn.

live!

Long Weiguo looked at the Alien Warship, full of the unknown and danger, and asked hoarsely:

“Do you think...”

“...that young Lu Chen can handle this time?”

“Don’t worry.”

A king-like smile, full of absolute trust and absolute pride, appeared.

“That young fellow...”

“is far more

“terrifying than we imagine.”

Just as he finished speaking,

“Ding-a-ling—”

An urgent phone ringing suddenly sounded!

It was Lu Chen!

Without a second thought, Long Weiguo snatched up the phone!

“Hello?! Young Lu Chen! How is it?! Are you alright?!”

“What could possibly happen to me?” Lu Chen’s characteristically calm voice came from the other end of the line. “I only called to tell you something.”

“What is it?”

“Weren’t you always worried about the safety of our Xia Kingdom?”

A meaningful curve appeared at the corner of Lu Chen’s mouth.

“Now you can rest assured.”

“Because...”

“I just learned a very interesting little

“secret from the brain of our adorable ‘octopus’ friend.”

“That is...”

“our godforsaken Orion Arm...”

“is the most remote, desolate, and also the most”

“safe”

“Novice Protection Zone in the entire Milky Way Galaxy.”
