#102 - Star Tower
"Oh?"
Lin Qing couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly, sizing up Chen Guang. "So sure?"
Chen Guang slowly said, "Before gene awakening, you were able to unearth all the gene abilities of the Heavenly Orbit Monarch bloodline's third level, and you could also cultivate the original 'Carefree Body' to an instinctive level. The Star Transmission Tower will definitely acknowledge you with this kind of potential."
"How do you know that I unearthed all the gene abilities of the Heavenly Orbit Monarch's third level?" Lin Qing asked, puzzled.
"Looks like you didn't know?" Chen Guang said, "If you want to unearth the core gene ability of a bloodline's certain level, you must first unearth all the other abilities before you can do it."
"I see..."
Lin Qing finally understood and shook his head, "The bloodline evolution method didn't introduce this matter."
"Most people, even after injecting the bloodline evolution serum and cultivating the bloodline evolution method, can only unearth one or two gene abilities," Chen Guang said. "This isn't common knowledge, so it's normal that it wasn't introduced."
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
"Fortunately, you have the ability 'Instant Flash', otherwise even the fourth level gene abilities might have been impossible," Chen Guang sighed softly.
"Luck," Lin Qing also understood this point.
The moving speed of dozens of Mach is far beyond even one-tenth of that of an Inspector.
He was also able to achieve this terrifying speed because of Instant Flash, his body can realize energy form in that instant, but the energy form cannot affect reality and can only be maintained for a moment.
Therefore, it is only suitable for escaping or seizing the initiative.
Lin Qing stood at the door of the core control room, first observed it to confirm that there were no problems, then quickly walked into the dim core control room, looked around, and found that it was full of equipment and instruments that he couldn't understand.
He couldn't help but ask, "Where is the Star Transmission Tower?"
"Look."
Chen Guang pointed to the wall next to her, and a metal plate on the wall slowly moved, revealing a hidden compartment.
Inside the hidden compartment, there were stacks of files.
But there was no crystal pagoda.
"I don't see it?" Lin Qing asked, puzzled.
Chen Guang pointed to the inside of the hidden compartment and said, "The Star Transmission Tower is embedded inside the alloy plate behind it, directly cast into a whole, as strong as the laser channel. Your shapeless blade ability can't hurt this level of alloy."
She glanced at Lin Qing, "However, as long as you approach the Star Transmission Tower about thirty centimeters, the Star Transmission Tower can sense you. After the recognition is successful, it will directly etherealize and integrate into your body."
Lin Qing asked, puzzled, "Since it can be integrated into the body, why did Dr. Chu Hui do this?"
"Father said that there are strong individuals in the metropolitan area who can forcefully probe the body, so hiding it in the body is not safe enough," Chen Guang said. "So, he came up with this method to hide the Star Transmission Tower."
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
Even if the enemy forcibly broke in and searched, after discovering this hidden compartment, they would think that the hidden compartment was for hiding these confidential documents.
But in reality, the Star Transmission Tower is hidden inside the alloy plate.
"Cunning enough."
Lin Qing nodded slightly, then said helplessly, "However, I still don't know what the Star Transmission Tower does."
Chen Guang said, "The main function of the Star Transmission Tower is trial and inheritance, used to cultivate and select suitable candidates for divine positions."
"Candidates for divine positions?" Lin Qing was a little confused.
"If you were at the Inspector Headquarters, you would also know these things when you reach the level of Inspector."
Chen Guang glanced at him and said, "You should know that the source of combat skills actually comes from the evolutionary path of the starry sky, right?"
"I know a little," Lin Qing nodded.
Chen Guang said, "These evolutionary paths are essentially all kinds of 'Starry Sky Divine Positions'."
She paused and said, "For example, Father once held one of the basic divine positions, [Scholar], and after breaking the gene limit, he even held the primitive divine position [Gene Prophet], so he was able to have such achievements in genetics."
"Scholar? Gene Prophet?"
Lin Qing said with interest, "Who decided on these professions?"
Chen Guang shook her head and said, "I don't know either."
"Aren't you the intelligence of the Star Transmission Tower?" Lin Qing couldn't help but glance at her.
"My birth is only to guide candidates on the path to divine positions."
Chen Guang said, "As long as the candidate of the Star Transmission Tower is willing, they can completely erase my consciousness at any time, which is equivalent to formatting, restoring me to the initial settings, and resetting my image. When Dr. Chu Hui obtained me, I was in the initial state. He awakened me, named me, set my image for me, and had me call him Father."
"I see..." Lin Qing suddenly understood.
"In short, Starry Sky Divine Positions are the most powerful and potential evolutionary paths in the universe."
Chen Guang said, "A large part of the various combat skills, cultivation methods, potions, etc. that exist on Earth come from the job requirements or derivatives of various Starry Sky Divine Positions."
Lin Qing was thoughtful.
No wonder... it's only been a few decades since the end of the apocalypse, and various combat skills, technological creations, gene technologies, etc. have emerged.
Originally, he thought it was all due to extraterrestrial civilizations, but now it seems... mainly because of the Starry Sky Divine Positions?
"Of course, the Star Transmission Tower is only used to cultivate and hone you."
Chen Guang said, "It can't let you directly take a divine position. You can think of it as a vocational training institution. With it, you can increase the hope of obtaining a Starry Sky Divine Position by ten times or a hundred times."
Lin Qing nodded slightly, and understood the importance of this Star Transmission Tower. He immediately asked, "Approaching thirty centimeters is enough to recognize the master?"
"Yes, just put your hand into the hidden compartment," Chen Guang said.
Lin Qing pondered for a moment, not in a hurry to recognize the master, but glanced at the door of the control room behind him and asked, "How long is the recognition time? Should we close the door before recognizing the master?"
He remembered that Chen Guang said that the control room door would only open after the laser defense was turned off, and that the laser channel would only restart after the door was closed.
One of the two must be in the closed state.
But he couldn't find the door closing button.
Moreover, this kind of door that slides to both sides cannot be forcibly closed.
"Can't close it."
Chen Guang shook her head and said, "You forcibly broke through the laser channel and don't have Father's biochip, so you can't take over the control room. However, after twenty minutes, the control room door will automatically close and the laser channel will restart."
"Then after I'm locked in the control room, can I still open the door from the inside?" Lin Qing asked in amazement.
"Can't open it either."
Chen Guang said, "You don't have a biochip. You can only manually turn off the laser through the button outside the door, and the control room door will automatically open."
Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and said, "Then can you control a robot to come over? Let the robot stand within one meter of the door, and open the door for me in case the door closes."
The laser will not pass within one meter of the end of the laser channel, and the robot can stay safely.
"I know, I've already sent a mechanical guard over here."
Chen Guang nodded slightly, "Father's recognition time was only about ten minutes. It should be about the same, right? I will help you close all the passages leading to this core control room. Even a general high-level Inspector would have to expend great effort to forcibly break the door."
"Then I'll start," Lin Qing took a deep breath, "No one should come over. If I'm discovered, then I can only..."
If someone approaches here within the twenty minutes that the laser channel is closed, they will definitely be discovered.
However, this core control room is located in the center of the second floor of the research institute and has no benefits. No one should come over.
Even if he is discovered, he is prepared to deal with it.
Lin Qing calmed his mind and immediately walked over and put his palm into the hidden compartment.
An invisible wave spread out. In a trance, he saw a palm-sized crystal seven-story pagoda, crystal clear and beautiful, with faint starlight floating and dying within it.
"This is the Star Transmission Tower?"
The next moment, a surge of starlight suddenly erupted from the Star Transmission Tower inside the hidden compartment's metal plate, completely submerging him.
Lin Qing immediately closed his eyes.
Chen Guang silently watched Lin Qing's state, a trace of excitement appearing in her eyes.
This is the purpose and meaning of her existence. Being able to meet a suitable candidate again has also given her direction.
"Hmm?"
After a while, Chen Guang suddenly turned her head slightly and looked in a direction outside the core control room.
That was the 'animal breeding area', which was also used to raise that biological weapon.
After taking over the intelligent system of this underground research institute, she can naturally also view the situation in various areas of the research institute.
The huge animals in the animal breeding area were originally locked in cages. She also deliberately controlled the cages to open, releasing the huge animals after gene modification, to prevent the biological weapons from being taken away.
These animals are all products of Dr. Chu Hui's professional abilities before his death, and are even more terrifying than mechanical guards.
But she now discovered that the biological weapon was finally obtained by someone.
"It's actually him?"
However, she didn't care about the ownership of the biological weapon. She had already tried her best and had not violated her father's orders.
...
The underground research institute is divided into four floors. This animal breeding area occupies almost the entire fourth floor and can be called the largest area of the research institute, even exceeding sixty meters in height.
It is like a real primeval forest, with huge trees growing.
At this time, in this animal breeding area, you can see that the huge cages have been opened.
There are huge beasts similar to lions and tigers; there are giant elephants that resemble ancient mammoths, but are ten times larger and covered in scales; there are huge pythons with bodies thicker than water tanks, and with jagged horns growing on their heads; and there are huge eagles with golden crowns growing on their heads...
One by one, huge beasts and birds recklessly crashed through this artificial jungle, searching for those who were hiding.
Behind a patch of grass, you can see shadows hiding here.
It was the mixed-race youth from the Vitas family in the metropolitan area, as well as his two bodyguards and five high-level Inspectors.
At this time, the five high-level Inspectors were all tired, and one of them even looked pale, drinking the River of Life potion, apparently suffering from serious injuries.
The group of people hid in the grass, quietly observing the exit not far away.
Everyone had also sprayed a layer of pale white powder to avoid leaking their scent.
At the exit, a huge mammoth was squatting, and a huge python with a color close to the color of the trees was wrapped around a tree not far away. In the sky, there was an enormous bird like a pterosaur circling.
At a glance, there were more than a dozen beasts entrenched at the exit alone.
"This Dr. Chu Hui is indeed extremely accomplished in genetics."
The mixed-race youth frowned slightly: "Just some Earth's native creatures, mixed with the genes of extraterrestrial life, can produce intelligence and become so fierce and huge? And they are all just food?"
Although they are all just food, they are powerful enough.
The high-level Inspectors who have persisted until now are almost all elites among the high-level Inspectors. Each of them is close to his own strength, but if it is one-on-one, they may not be able to solve any of the beasts here.
There's no way, the size is so different that human attacks become tickling.
"Act according to plan. Next, I'll trouble you Inspectors."
The mixed-race youth glanced at the five high-level Inspectors and said in a deep voice: "That Luo Wu has already obtained the biological weapon. If he can't be resolved in the research institute, it will be a big trouble."
He said sincerely: "I, Feiwen Vitas, guarantee to you in the name of the Vitas family that I will never forget your help to me today."
His voice did not spread out, but only passed on to the five high-level Inspectors.
The five high-level Inspectors revealed a trace of joy. Although they did not dare to speak, they nodded slightly.
This young master of the Vitas family has a method to control the transmission of sound, which they cannot do.
Even if the other party is just a figure outside the core level of the Vitas family, for them, that is also a big figure whose status is higher than that of an Inspector, and whose connections, circles, and resources far exceed their level.
Having the honor to help such a big figure is also an opportunity for them.
They naturally would not refuse, and even ignored the attack on the gene laboratory, and first came to help this young master of the Vitas family.
"Thank you very much," the mixed-race youth immediately gave a smile.
Although these so-called high-level Inspectors are just some untouchables who are destined to become livestock in five years in his opinion, it does not prevent him from making waste use of them now.
And he is different. After bringing the biological weapon back this time, his future will be even brighter.
Suddenly—
"Whoosh!"
A figure suddenly窜out from the depths of the jungle and rushed towards the narrow exit of the animal breeding area.
That was a young and strong man. At this time, his face was pale, he seemed to have lost too much blood, and he looked a little weak.
It was Luo Wu from the Original Research Institute.
The huge mammoth was about to wave its trunk, but found that the figure was holding a scarlet long stick, and the terrible aura emitted by the long stick immediately made it instinctively fearful, and subconsciously took a step aside.
The pterosaur that was about to swoop down from the sky also flapped its wings in a panic and did not dare to approach.
One by one, the huge mutated beasts retreated because of instinctive fear. Although they were not afraid of this human, this human was holding a terrifying existence that regarded them as food.
"Sure enough!"
Seeing this, Luo Wu glanced at the scarlet long staff in his hand and rushed happily towards the exit ahead.
Just then—
“Do it!”
Figures suddenly darted out from the nearby bushes, rushing towards Luo Wu at the same time.
Luo Wu's expression changed, but facing the siege of so many experts with similar strength, he didn't dare to fight back. He could only desperately rush towards the exit of the animal breeding area.
Fortunately, these huge mutated beasts didn't dare to provoke him. Instead, they rushed towards the others even more furiously.
The five senior inspectors gritted their teeth and immediately met these mutated beasts head-on.
Meanwhile, the mixed-blood youth led two bodyguards, taking advantage of the senior inspectors' restraint of these ferocious beasts, to chase after Luo Wu towards the exit of the animal breeding area.
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
In the blink of an eye, Luo Wu, the mixed-blood youth, and his two bodyguards, four figures in total, had already rushed out of the animal breeding area.
The senior inspectors hadn't had time to get rid of these beasts and rush out when a huge python coiled itself at the entrance, which was only two or three meters high, completely blocking their way out.
The senior inspectors all sighed inwardly, it seemed they would have to find another opportunity.
However…
According to the plan, this was what they had intended to do in the first place.
…
Five minutes later.
“Luo Wu, stop running, you have no chance of escaping.”
After chasing him all the way to the third floor, the mixed-blood youth looked at Luo Wu, who had stopped ahead, and chuckled, “You were already seriously injured. Even if I gave you the biological weapon, you wouldn't be able to use it. Hand it over, and I'll spare your life.”
“Zhi Xing Nu, do you think I'll believe your words?” Luo Wu's face was pale, but he still looked mockingly at the mixed-blood youth.
The term 'Zhi Xing Nu' immediately changed the mixed-blood youth's expression. He said coldly, “Then die.”
He took a deep breath and suddenly let out an almost silent shriek. The sharp ultrasonic waves instantly erupted and swept over Luo Wu.
Luo Wu was about to attack, but he felt a dizziness in his head and his vision went dark, nearly fainting.
At that moment, the mixed-blood youth's two bodyguards rushed forward at the same time.
“Get lost!!”
Luo Wu roared angrily, suddenly waving the scarlet long staff in his hand.
At the same time, the scarlet light on the surface of the long staff flowed like blood, as if it had received some kind of replenishment. This also made Luo Wu's face even paler, and even his black hair began to turn gray rapidly.
…
Three minutes later.
Luo Wu staggered along the white floor of the second floor of the research institute. At this time, his hair was completely white, his skin was covered with wrinkles, and he had become extremely weak, like a flickering candle in the wind.
He knew he was about to die.
The price of using this semi-finished biological weapon was the consumption of life. He was already seriously injured. After barely killing the mixed-blood youth's two bodyguards and repelling the mixed-blood youth, he had already reached his limit.
However, he didn't want this biological weapon to be obtained by that Zhi Xing Nu.
Therefore…
He thought of the laser channel in the core control room of the research institute. If he threw it into the laser channel, perhaps the laser channel could destroy this semi-finished biological weapon?
Using this biological weapon along the way, he continuously broke through several doors and finally arrived at the central location of the second floor.
“Almost there…”
The world in front of Luo Wu's eyes spun. His life force was almost completely drained, making it impossible for him to hold on any longer.
Seeing that the laser channel leading to the core control room was just ahead, his last obsession drove his broken body to continue struggling forward.
When he reached the entrance of the laser channel, he couldn't help but be stunned.
“Hmm?”
Luo Wu stared blankly at the dim laser channel, suspecting that his vision might be impaired due to excessive consumption of life force.
The laser channel, which had always been bright, was now so dim?
Unable to believe it, he immediately took out a dagger hidden on his body and threw it into the laser channel.
But with a clang, the alloy dagger fell into the laser channel, but it didn't trigger the laser channel's attack.
How was he supposed to destroy this biological weapon now?
“咻!”
A streak of cold light suddenly flew over, directly and deeply piercing into Luo Wu's back, and blood splattered instantly.
Luo Wu staggered and fell to the ground, and the dark red long staff also slipped out of his hand.
The dark red long staff began to slowly deform, seemingly about to awaken and turn into a living thing.
At the same time, a strand of golden silk flew over at lightning speed, sticking to the dark red long staff like spider silk and sucking it into his hand.
“Haha…”
Amidst the low laughter, the mixed-blood youth walked out holding the dark red long staff. The dark red long staff immediately began to change rapidly and soon turned into a rope that was looped around his hand.
“Luo Wu, you're really crazy enough to use this kind of semi-finished biological weapon?”
The mixed-blood youth looked at Luo Wu, who was lying on the ground, and walked over with a smile. “It doesn't matter, I'll make it perfect. Thank you for feeding it for me. A livestock like you is only fit to be its food. When I… hmm?”
He suddenly stopped, frowning at the dim laser channel in front of him.
He had naturally witnessed the power of this laser channel, but with his methods, he couldn't get in either, so he had to give up temporarily.
However, he understood in his heart that the great secret of this research institute might be hidden in this core control room.
Even if he didn't think that a treasure like the Star Transmission Tower would be hidden here, he had still thought about it—
What if?
And now, this laser channel was actually closed?
The mixed-blood youth didn't care about Luo Wu, who was on the verge of death. He quickly walked to the laser channel and reached out. A strand of golden silk immediately flew in.
But this time, it didn't trigger the laser attack.
“The laser channel is actually closed? Could there be something wrong with the research institute?”
The mixed-blood youth was overjoyed and immediately walked into the laser channel.
In just a few steps, he had already seen the core control room in the channel, which was only a dozen meters long.
However—
“Hmm?”
The mixed-blood youth discovered that there was actually a figure inside the dim core control room, seemingly rummaging through something in the hidden compartment on the wall.
Although the nanomachines in his body couldn't connect to external signals, he recognized at a glance that this person was the small inspector who had been by Inspector Tang's side before.
He had also glanced at this small inspector's information at the time.
What was his name?
Oh right… it was 'Lin Qing'?
The mixed-blood youth relaxed slightly and said, “Inspector Lin Qing? How did you get in?”
In the dimness, Lin Qing turned his head to look at the mixed-blood youth with a blank expression, then revealed a surprised look and immediately said, “Young Master Vitas? I don't know what happened. As soon as I arrived, I discovered that this laser channel was closed, so I came in to search and discovered a hidden compartment here.”
He hesitated for a moment, then took out all the documents in the hidden compartment and said respectfully, “Young Master Vitas, these seem to be the confidential documents of this research institute. I am willing to offer them all to you.”
“Oh?”
The mixed-blood youth smiled and shook his head. “No need, I'm not interested in these. You can take them. I'll just search a bit.”
Lin Qing said in surprise, “Thank you, Young Master Vitas.”
The mixed-blood youth smiled and nodded.
In his heart, however, a murderous intent arose: “This lowly commoner… the laser channel closed so strangely, and he just happened to appear here? Never mind, it's not important… What if he really has the Star Transmission Tower on him? I'll know after I kill him.”
To him, a mere city inspector from outside the urban area was no different from an ant on the side of the road.
Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he couldn't let it go!
Who wouldn't be willing to casually crush an ant to exchange it for a one in ten thousand chance of winning the lottery?
The mixed-blood youth maintained his smile, watched Lin Qing walk out of the core control room, and began to gather his strength.
Just then—
A flash of azure light suddenly bloomed. With just a flash of light, he was horrified to discover that Lin Qing had appeared before his eyes!
In those cold pupils, there was nothing but inhuman azure.
Then, he felt his body lighten. He seemed to have flown up, and then he saw a headless body spurting blood wildly.
“How is this possible? This lowly commoner…”
The mixed-blood youth's flying head was filled with fear, and there was also a hint of shock in his eyes.
Then, he lost consciousness.
In an instant, Lin Qing brushed past the mixed-blood youth, then turned his head with a cold gaze.
Before his eyes, two lines of prompts were slowly disappearing.
[Order Level decreased by 1.9 levels]
[Order Level increased by 1.9 levels]
“I didn't do anything, and you still wanted to kill me?”
Lin Qing's heart was cold: “You think I wouldn't dare to kill you? Just a small figure from an urban area family?”
No matter how well he pretended, he couldn't hide the changes in the Order Level.
Since the other party wanted to kill him, he naturally took the initiative.
“As for the aftermath…”
Lin Qing glanced at the mixed-blood youth's corpse.
“The senior inspectors are still in the animal breeding area on the fourth floor.” Chen Guang's voice sounded in his mind. “You have enough time to operate.”
Lin Qing didn't speak, but picked up the scarlet biological weapon that had lost its suppression, dragged the mixed-blood youth's corpse, and kicked his head out of the channel, then walked to the outside of the laser channel.
Outside the laser channel, Luo Wu, who was on his last breath, lay on the ground, staring blankly at the mixed-blood youth's head rolling in front of him, and couldn't help but look up at Lin Qing.
Lin Qing casually threw the mixed-blood youth's corpse in front of the other party and asked, “From the Primitive Research Institute?”
“Yes.” Luo Wu looked at Lin Qing with strange eyes and asked, “Did you kill him?”
“Yes.” Lin Qing said, “I know you're about to die. Can you still be saved?”
Luo Wu was silent for a moment, then shook his head. “My life force is exhausted. There's no saving me.”
“That's good.”
Lin Qing nodded slightly and said, “I know he forced you to death. Can you do me a favor?”
Luo Wu smiled. On his pale and withered face, the smile was very bright. “I understand what you mean. I, Luo Wu, killed this Zhi Xing Nu. I couldn't ask for more.”
“Do you have any last wishes?” Lin Qing asked.
“It's meaningless to say them, and I can't fulfill them.” Luo Wu shook his head. “I just want freedom. I don't want to be a slave…”
“Who wants to be a slave?” Lin Qing casually handed him the biological weapon and said, “You seem to be in good spirits. You should still have the strength to set up the scene, right?”
“Enough.”
Luo Wu looked at the mixed-blood youth's corpse in front of him, activated the remaining mysterious energy to transform the scarlet biological weapon into a long staff, and then used his last strength to smash his head and neck into a pulp, smashing blood everywhere, and even smashing a biochip into powder.
Then, he lay down weakly and began to wait quietly for death.
Lin Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, when the five senior inspectors search over, they will think that the person who killed the mixed-blood youth was Luo Wu, who exhausted his last life to die together with him.
And the blood in the laser channel will be cleaned up after the laser channel is restarted.
Then, let Chen Guang clear the surveillance records of the entire research institute and turn off the surveillance.
“I'm leaving.” Lin Qing looked at Luo Wu. “Sleep well.”
“Okay.” Luo Wu revealed a trace of a smile. “I haven't dreamed in a long time. This dream must be very long. I hope it's a good dream.”
“Sweet dreams.”
Lin Qing glanced at him one last time before turning around and leaving.
