Orderly tyrant

A moment passed.

The surging memories gradually subsided, and the subtle changes within Lin Qing's body, down to the depths of his cells, slowly ceased.

Opening his eyes, the world before him seemed to have undergone new changes.

The flow of various energies, rays, and waves... all seemed to be reflected in his mind at this moment.

"Super-powered matter?"

Lin Qing extended a hand, and a drop of blood oozed from the skin of his palm. He saw strands of cyan light begin to flow and converge within the drop of blood, like a 3D model. A large amount of cyan energy was continuously compressed and condensed together, gradually outlining the shape he desired.

After about five minutes, consuming approximately one-tenth of his energy, he finally formed a long blade about one meter long, pure black throughout, and faintly shimmering with a cyan luster.

"This is... super-powered matter derived and condensed from one's own substance and a large amount of energy?"

Lin Qing examined the long blade in his hand, and after gently tapping it, it felt like real matter no matter what.

Moreover, he had deliberately adjusted the density of the super-powered matter earlier. Estimating it now, this long blade probably weighed about half a kilogram.

"Let's test the hardness."

Lin Qing's hands took on a metallic luster. He grabbed the back of the blade with one hand and the handle with the other, trying to break it, but the pure black long blade did not bend at all.

"Oh? So sturdy?"

A deep cyan light suddenly burst forth from Lin Qing's eyes, and the muscles in his arms also swelled up abruptly, as he exerted all his strength.

However, the long blade showed no sign of bending, not even a slight deformation.

"As expected..."

Lin Qing revealed a smile, "The fourth-level ability of the Heavenly Orbit Monarch bloodline, 'Super-powered Matter,' can really form materials similar to nanomaterials, and even adjust the density."

According to the research data from the Dawn Group—

From a microscopic perspective, the crystal grain size of 'Super-powered Matter' is extremely small, the number of crystal boundaries is extremely large, and the resistance to dislocation movement is very high, which is the so-called size effect. This leads to the amazing strength and hardness of this material.

Mastering this ability also allows one to control the density of the super-powered matter and adjust its mass.

Lin Qing didn't understand how he controlled the changes in the super-powered matter at the microscopic level.

It was like the ancients being unable to explain how their arms moved.

"收 (Shōu - 收) ."

With a thought, cyan light flowed over Lin Qing's body, and the pure black long blade merged into his body within the cyan light.

"出 (Chū - 出) ."

He reached out again, and as the cyan light flowed, the pure black long blade appeared in an instant.

"It really can be stored away," Lin Qing couldn't help but smile.

This super-powered matter was originally of a semi-material, semi-energy nature, so it could naturally be converted into a compressed energy form, stored in the body, and when needed, it could be released from the body and transformed back into a material form.

It was just a matter of his thought.

However, the nature of the energy changed after it was transformed into super-powered matter, so it could no longer replenish his energy.

"It just can't be used by others for a long time."

Lin Qing recalled the information about this ability.

Maintaining the stable state of super-powered matter also constantly consumed energy, and it must be supported by his own energy.

Otherwise, once it left him for more than 13 seconds, it would automatically return to a compressed energy state and gradually dissipate.

"However, I also have 'Heavenly Orbit Coordinates,' which can attract objects containing my energy through the coordinates, and it would be even simpler to directly attract my energy after the super-powered matter returns to a compressed energy state..."

Lin Qing felt somewhat fortunate.

Heavenly Orbit Coordinates could originally attract objects containing his energy, and it was naturally even simpler to directly attract his energy.

As long as he made himself a coordinate, he could easily recover the energy transformed by the super-powered matter.

"Hmm... I'll make more super-powered matter weapons these days."

Lin Qing pondered secretly, "It's a pity that I can't make guns or bows and arrows, otherwise the upper limit of this ability would be too high."

Guns use gunpowder gas pressure or other energy sources to launch projectiles.

And bows and arrows also use the elastic deformation of the bow to store energy, and then suddenly release this energy to launch the arrow at high speed.

But super-powered matter was purely hard and could not undergo any elastic deformation, so it naturally could not be used to make bows and arrows.

The best way to use it was to use the high strength and high hardness of super-powered matter to make it extremely sharp, so that its blade was very, very thin, and its lethality would still be considerable.

Of course, he could also try to increase the density of the super-powered matter as much as possible to make it an extremely heavy weapon, but the density limit was only so high.

"Not bad."

Lin Qing waved the long blade in his hand with satisfaction, and the black shadow of the blade flickered, but there was almost no sound of cutting through the air.

Because it was so sharp that the air resistance it encountered was also very low.

In the early days of the outbreak of the apocalypse in his previous life, when he and his companions were searching in an abandoned mansion, they discovered a collection room of cold weapons, and he chose a sharpened Tang sword at that time.

Then he pre-spent the usage skills of the Tang sword, and later became accustomed to using it.

This long blade formed from super-powered matter could be fully described as a magical weapon that could cut iron like mud, and was suitable for close combat.

"Hoo."

With a flash of cyan light, the long blade in Lin Qing's hand suddenly disappeared.

"'Super-powered Matter' also requires twenty-five times to pay off."

Lin Qing thought to himself, "If I can cultivate "Limitless Heavenly Light", the power of throwing and killing enemies with "Limitless Heavenly Light", combined with remote weapons built with super-powered matter, and setting the Heavenly Orbit Coordinates on the enemy..."

Just thinking about the scene in his mind made him feel terrified.

Incredibly anticipated!

"After this matter is resolved, I must quickly earn points, pay off these debts as soon as possible, awaken my genes as soon as possible, and practice the new two battle techniques as soon as possible!"

Lin Qing took a deep breath, and then with a thought, he controlled the Star Transmission Tower to release Morning Light.

He saw a stream of light fly out of his body, transforming into a little girl in a pure white dress, like an angel.

After truly beginning to control the Star Transmission Tower, he was already able to make Morning Light, the intelligent life of the Star Transmission Tower, appear, but only he could see Morning Light. This was just a projection of consciousness.

"Morning Light, help me check which of the new patrol officers in the training branch are cultivating the Free Body Battle Technique, and give me a list," Lin Qing said.

In fact, he could also check it himself, but he didn't want to arouse suspicion.

"Okay."

Morning Light tapped her finger, and a list that was also a projection of consciousness appeared before Lin Qing's eyes.

Lin Qing quickly scanned it, then nodded slightly and said, "I'll prepare, and go resolve that Mr. Burke as soon as possible. He's said to be a big shot from the Delaney Civilization?"

There was a hint of mockery in his eyes.

No matter what kind of stuff they were in those extraterrestrial civilizations, after coming to Earth, they seemed to be big shots, always talking about the Earth natives and regarding Earthlings as livestock.

Ye Hong, who he killed today, was only close to the strength of a two-star elite patrol officer.

Even if the Delaney Civilization was not as good as the Intellect Star people and could not achieve gene awakening for everyone, it should not be much worse. With Ye Hong's strength, he would not be any better than an ordinary person in the Delaney Civilization, but he still looked down on Earth civilization.

However, even on Earth, there was still the phenomenon of large cities looking down on small places, let alone the gap between cosmic civilizations.

Looking at it this way...

These aliens were just 'people'.

People would die when killed.

"Judging from his situation in prison, his status in the Delaney Civilization should not be low."

Morning Light said, "If you kill him, you must not be discovered, otherwise it will be a big trouble."

"Not killing him is also a big trouble," Lin Qing said, "Once he knows that Ye Hong is dead, he will eventually suspect me. He must die."

He paused and said, "I have absolute certainty of escaping from prison, but I don't know how to sneak in."

Morning Light looked at him and said softly, "Since that's the case, I have a plan."

...

That night.

Late at night.

"How is it?"

In the living room, Lin Qing looked at Zhao Jiayi sitting opposite him and asked, "Are you sure which people in the patrol branch are gene awakeners?"

"There are quite a few," Zhao Jiayi said with some doubt, "However, how can there be so many gene awakeners in the training branch? The data of several people here are not gene awakeners."

"They were all transformed by extraterrestrial stowaways."

Lin Qing casually explained and said, "Tell me specifically who they are? Just tell me the room numbers."

Zhao Jiayi nodded slightly and immediately said, "It's room 1521 and 1607 in dormitory building number one, room 0314 and 1105 in dormitory building number two..."

She quickly reported all the suspicious gene awakeners discovered by her telekinesis exploration.

"Hmm."

Lin Qing compared them with the information provided by Morning Light in his mind, nodded slightly and said, "A few people can be determined to be transformed from prisoners in the Broken Monument Prison."

By comparing the task time and cultivated battle techniques of the Broken Monument Prison... these suspicious points could be accurately judged.

"Prisoners from the Broken Monument Prison?" Zhao Jiayi asked in astonishment.

"Alright."

Lin Qing stood up, touched her head, "I want to find a chance to kill one of them, get some items, and replace their identity. Then you can help me lock their location."

"Kill in the patrol headquarters?" Zhao Jiayi asked in astonishment.

"I want to too, but it's too difficult and the risk is too great."

Lin Qing shook his head slightly, "However, these people always have times when they leave the headquarters and go out. After determining the destination, I'll find a mission that's not far away. We can go out for a trip. It's just too troublesome and I have to go back and forth."

"Is that so..."

Zhao Jiayi thought for a while and suddenly said, "Why don't you wait three more days?"

"Wait three more days?" Lin Qing looked at her in confusion and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I'll be an adult on the 21st."

Zhao Jiayi hesitated for a moment, but still said, "At that time, my telekinesis will be much, much stronger than it is now... I can help you solve one from a distance, and I guarantee that no one will discover it."

Lin Qing was slightly startled and asked, "Are you sure?"

"Uh... the premise is just ordinary gene awakeners," Zhao Jiayi said without confidence, "If they're too strong, I won't be sure."

"They won't be too strong."

Lin Qing said, "These extraterrestrial stowaways have all been injected with life inhibitors and cannot evolve, and they are just prisoners from the first level of the Broken Monument Prison. At most, they're the strength of two-star elite patrol officers."

"Then there's no problem," Zhao Jiayi immediately nodded confidently.

Lin Qing became more and more curious, what race was Zhao Jiayi after all?

"Master."

Morning Light's voice rang in Lin Qing's mind, "She must be an extraterrestrial race that is naturally good at telekinesis. She awakened telekinesis before she was an adult, and she will be even stronger after she becomes an adult. She can make ordinary gene awakeners disappear silently from a distance? Even among the extraterrestrial races that the father knows, she is considered a very talented one."

Lin Qing was silent, but he didn't have the idea of exploring.

If she could tell him, Zhao Jiayi would have told him long ago.

Three days later.

July 21st, noon.

"Happy birthday."

After Lin Qing put the dishes sent by the catering department on the table, he specially ordered a three-layer big cake, turned off the lights in the room, and then lit the candles on the cake in the shape of '20 years old'.

In the candlelight, Zhao Jiayi blushed a little and lowered her head embarrassedly.

Dad said that there was no such custom in his hometown, so it was her first birthday.

But this sense of ritual made her feel a kind of inexplicable joy and emotion.

"Make a wish," Lin Qing smiled and touched her head, "You're an adult now."

Zhao Jiayi nodded nervously and said, "Then I want to..."

"You can't say it," Lin Qing reached out and covered her mouth, shaking his head and laughing, "It won't work if you say it."

"Oh..."

After Zhao Jiayi made her wish, blew out the candles, and finished this exceptionally rich birthday dinner, she couldn't help but say with a giggle, "It would be great if I could have a birthday every day."

"Have you changed?" Lin Qing looked her up and down and said, "I don't see any changes in you?"

"It's not time yet."

Zhao Jiayi tilted her head and said, "Anyway, it's today. It's hard to say when exactly. Dad said that when I become an adult, I can feel the change myself."

"Oh." Lin Qing wasn't in a hurry and said, "Alright, then I'll go cultivate first."

Although he didn't have many points to buy resources to replenish the Heavenly Orbit Coordinates and Super-powered Matter gene abilities, he couldn't miss paying off the debt for the Free Body Battle Technique five times a day and trying to get started with the Limitless Heavenly Light and Heart Refining Method.

...

In the blink of an eye, it was evening.

"Lin Qing."

Suddenly, a knock on the door rang, and Zhao Jiayi's excited and cheerful voice came in, "I'm an adult, come out and see me."

"An adult?"

Lin Qing opened his eyes, walked out of the cultivation room, and opened the bedroom door. He found Zhao Jiayi standing at the door with her bare white feet, blinking her big eyes, pointing at herself with both fingers, with an expectant look of 'Look at me, what's different'.

This what's the difference game... Lin Qing observed carefully, shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like there's any change?"

"Don't you think I have more aura?" Zhao Jiayi puffed out her cheeks.

"You're still like a child."

Lin Qing reached out and pinched her cheek. "Can you feel the changes yourself?"

"Yeah." Zhao Jiayi nodded vigorously, saying with a slightly smug expression, "I've awakened my genes."

"You really awakened?" Lin Qing was slightly taken aback and asked, "Are you sure?"

He had heard that Zhixing people could awaken their genes upon adulthood, but Zhao Jiayi could also do it?

"Really."

Zhao Jiayi said with certainty, "I can now adjust my genes to enter the state most suitable for the exertion of telekinesis. My telekinesis is much stronger than before."

Before Lin Qing could speak, he heard Zhao Jiayi's giggling voice in his mind, "Believe me now?"

"You can communicate mentally?" Lin Qing asked in surprise.

"I just tried my best to extend my telekinesis towards the sea, and I can probably extend it to fifteen kilometers away," Zhao Jiayi said, "This is also the range of my telekinetic probe."

Lin Qing couldn't help but smile, "Then I'll rely on you tonight."

"By the way, what items do you want to get from the prisoners of the Broken Monument Prison?" Zhao Jiayi asked suspiciously.

Lin Qing pondered for a moment and said, "A chip device similar to contact lenses, which should be on their eyeballs, can be used to change the iris, and a bionic fingerprint sleeve that imitates fingerprints."

He wanted to impersonate someone else to apply for a mission and sneak into the prison. It was not enough to rely on the Freeform skill to change his appearance; he also needed to solve fingerprint recognition and iris recognition.

But these extraterrestrial stowaways who impersonate new patrols must have these two items.

Solving one would be enough.

"Okay, but which one of these people should we deal with?" Zhao Jiayi asked.

"Let's choose 'Fellodar' from Room 1105 of Accommodation Building 2."

Lin Qing said slowly, "His real identity is the prisoner 'Bai Yue' from the Broken Monument Prison. Among those whose identities have been confirmed, his crimes are the most serious. Hundreds of Earthlings have been used as food by him."

If it weren't for the extraterrestrial civilization's alien masters, such crimes against humanity would have resulted in his death countless times.

But the other party was still swaggering around, impersonating an Earthling, and still living freely.

Even… he would occasionally ask for leave to leave headquarters.

Judging from the information found by Chenguang, the places this alien master went to every time he asked for leave were always where young girls went missing.

What happened was self-evident.

"Okay, leave it to me."

Zhao Jiayi nodded immediately, glanced at Lin Qing again, and said softly, "But… I can't let you see it."

Lin Qing didn't care and said, "I'll go back to the cultivation room first. Tell me when you've dealt with it."

After saying that, he walked towards his bedroom.

Behind him came Zhao Jiayi's hometown language mumbling, "You're the best…"

Lin Qing paused slightly, but did not look back at her.

After Lin Qing returned to his room, Zhao Jiayi rubbed her forehead and muttered to herself, "I have to use this power again. This time, it shouldn't be too much of an overdraft, right…"

…

Five minutes later.

[Current Order Level increased by 2.1 levels]

Inside the cultivation room, a line of green prompts suddenly appeared in front of Lin Qing.

He immediately understood that the prisoner had been dealt with by Zhao Jiayi.

"Okay."

Zhao Jiayi's voice also sounded from outside the door.

After walking out of the bedroom, he saw Zhao Jiayi opening the window in the living room. Something seemed to be flying in from outside the window.

"Here, for you."

Two transparent circular films like contact lenses and two transparent gloves as thin as cicada wings were floating in front of Zhao Jiayi.

She controlled these things to float towards Lin Qing, "I specially used telekinesis to protect these things and fly them over. No one noticed."

"What about the person? Has the body been disposed of?" Lin Qing said.

He had already asked Chenguang to prepare to prevent the signal sent out when the disguised patrol extraterrestrial stowaway died, but the body also had to be disposed of.

"No body." Zhao Jiayi shook her head, with a hint of fatigue between her eyebrows.

"Huh?" Lin Qing was slightly stunned.

"Master," Chenguang said, "Although I don't know what happened, according to the person's vital signs detection record, the person seems to have suddenly disappeared."
