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

276: The first test of the causal weapon: You are ”inevitably” going to fail!”You’re courting death!”

When that roar, filled with endless killing intent and monstrous rage, swept across the entire battlefield like a cosmic storm, the golden giant hand that was about to crush Nuwa suddenly froze.

[Hmm?]

For the first time, that ancient and gentle voice carried a hint of surprise.

[Awakened?]

[No]

[This power... this overbearing dominance that transcends the rules.]

[You are not that inheritor!]

[Who exactly are you?!]

A wave of mental fluctuation, filled with vigilance and gravity, instantly locked onto the bridge of the expedition.

However, the only response it received was an even colder, more cruel—

”Scram!”

Boom—!!!

Following Lu Chen’s furious roar, a golden Divine Might, a hundred times more terrifying than the previous mental roar, instantly erupted from his body!

That was no longer mere psychic energy; it was—

The power of Words Become Law,

Rule Force!

”Crack—”

Space was wailing.

The moment the golden giant hand touched this Divine Might, it instantly became illusory, emitting a grating ”sizzle” sound, like a snowflake touched by a red-hot iron!

[Causality?!]

[You... you actually mastered the core power of the ’Kindling’?!]

In the voice of the engine, there appeared for the first time—

Fear!

It was afraid.

It wasn’t afraid of Lu Chen’s power, but rather the rogue fighting style that defied logic and could directly modify the ”result”!

This was like a martial arts master encountering a wizard who could conjure ”Debuffs” out of thin air—their martial skills were completely useless!

”Only afraid now?”

On the bridge of the expedition, Lu Chen slowly stood up from the captain’s chair.

He didn’t look at the rapidly retracting golden giant hand, but instead his gaze pierced through endless space, locking tightly onto that stunning figure who was still bewildered and unaware that she had just walked through the Gates of Hell.

His heart was bleeding.

That was dread, anger... the monstrous rage of his woman nearly being killed right in front of him!

monstrous rage!

”Qingying, step back.”

Lu Chen’s voice was soft, yet carried an undeniable tenderness.

”The next scene might be a little bloody.”

”Hmm?”

Su Qingying hadn’t reacted yet.

She saw Lu Chen slowly raise his right hand, and the crystal of the causality interference device, emitting an eerie purple light, materialized in his palm.

”Old monster.”

Lu Chen looked at the white vortex that had already retreated into the black hole event horizon, a cold, death god-like smile curling on his lips.

”Tell me, if I were to set a ’result’ right now.”

”Making your arrogant hand—”

”—’definitely’ hit yourself.”

”What would happen?”

[You... you dare?!]

The voice of the engine was filled with the terror of someone trying to sound brave.

”Watch me.”

Lu Chen gently crushed the crystal in his hand.

There was no sound.

No light.

Only an invisible, eerie fluctuation, powerful enough to throw the entire universe’s laws into chaos, instantly spread out.

The next second.

A bizarre scene unfolded.

The golden giant hand that had just retreated back inside the black hole event horizon suddenly trembled without warning!

Then, in an extremely awkward and uncoordinated posture, it abruptly reversed direction!

And viciously slapped the frantically spinning white vortex!

”SMACK—!!!”

A crisp, loud sound, like a

slap, coming from the depths of the soul!

resonated throughout the entire battlefield!

””

The entire world fell silent.

All the humans and Winged People on the bridge stared blankly at the ”ridiculous” scene on the screen, as if they had seen a ghost.

Hitting itself?!

What the hell kind of divine operation is this?!

[You... you *cough*—]

For the first time, the ancient and gentle voice of the engine carried a hint of exasperated vomiting

sound!

It never dreamed!

That it would be

severely injured in such a humiliating manner?!

This was even more

unbearable than being killed outright!

”How was that?”

Lu Chen looked at the white vortex, which had dimmed slightly due to the fierce energy backlash, and smiled faintly.

”That slap of mine...”

”Was quite loud, wasn’t it?”

[You... you despicable, shameless, Dishonorable]

[Attacker!]

The engine’s voice was filled with impotent rage.

”Ambush?”

Lu Chen smiled, a brilliant smile that nonetheless sent chills down one’s spine.

”No, no, no.”

”This is not an ambush.”

”This is called...”

He stretched out a finger and lightly traced the void, as if modifying some invisible script.

”’Heaven’s Mandate’.”

”And I...”

He pointed to himself; his golden Divine Eyes flashed with an arrogance that overlooked the world.

”Am Heaven!”

”Now, the game is over.”

”Tell me your choice.”

Lu Chen’s voice instantly turned cold.

”Do you choose to be slowly tormented to death by me in this humiliating way?”

”Or...”

”Do you obediently give up resistance?”

”Allowing me to...”

”Help you ’format’?”

[I... I...]

The consciousness of the engine fell into unprecedented confusion and struggle.

Reason told it that surrender was the only way out.

But the pride of being a former ’Creation of the Gods’ prevented it from lowering its noble head!

”It seems you haven’t decided yet.”

Lu Chen looked at the still-hesitating white vortex and slowly shook his head.

”In that case...”

”Then I’ll give you another push.”

He extended his right hand again.

His pair of golden Divine Eyes flashed with a madness a million times more terrifying than before—

light!

”This time,”

”We’ll play a bigger game.”

”Tell me,”

”If I were to set a ’result’ right now.”

”Making you, and your damned black hole,”

”Together,”

”’Definitely’ self-consume?”
