93: Chapter 83 Star God, Aberration (First Update) 93: Chapter 83 Star God, Aberration (First Update) Bang bang bang bang bang!
Qin Shi unleashed a series of five rapid kicks, pounding the chanical dog furiously.
The rapid succession of blows caused a burst of cracking sounds, and the tal skeleton twisted and deford under his forceful stomping.
The crimson electronic eye flickered erratically.
Pop——
It was like a bubble being pierced, and the dense darkness instantly dispersed, the invisible force field dissipating along with it.
The young man with a buzzcut, who had violently convulsed and fell to the ground, finally escaped the “nightmare”.
He lifted his hand, his throat emitting a raspy sound:
“Electronic…
ban!
Leader!”
Seeing the miserable state of the buzzcut young man, Chen Yun awoke from her stupor.
Realizing sothing was wrong, she turned abruptly and headed back to the car, grabbing the walkie-talkie:
“This is Chen Yun from the seventh group of the Inspection Departnt.
All inspection personnel, follow my command and lock down Jiushong Port!
I repeat, lock down all entrances and exits of Jiushong Port, and strictly prohibit the use of any electronic devices above Level III!”
The inspection personnel executed the orders with remarkable efficiency.
Within minutes, a yellow warning line was drawn around Jiushong Port.
The heavy iron gates crashed down with a thunderous roar, sealing the port off.
Employees from Yu Hai City Construction, hearing the commotion, ca forward to negotiate.
A curvaceous woman, who looked like a secretary, strutted with high heels and a face full of arrogance:
“Our President Qin has suffered such a huge loss and hasn’t wasted the police force, handling it himself.
And you inspectors are still deliberately adding to the trouble…”
Chen Yun completely disregarded her usual patience seen with Lin Yunqing.
She slapped the arrogant woman hard, knocking her down, and then grabbed her wavy hair, yanking her up painfully, causing the woman to cry for her mother and father.
“Qin Lihao had better co up with a clear explanation of why there was an electronic demon carrying an infectee in his stored container!
If he can’t explain, I’ll invite him to the inspection departnt for a chat!”
Chen Yun’s fine eyebrows arched, a murderous intent in her eyes that made the wavy-haired secretary tremble all over.
After quickly dealing with the troublemaker, she addressed the inspection personnel in a cold voice:
“Detain them all, and if anyone resists, shoot on the spot!”
Chen Yun’s actions instantly filled Jiushong Port with a grim atmosphere, as if a cold wave swept through, freezing everyone.
Returning rapidly to the scene, she glanced at the battered chanical dog, her icy expression slightly easing, feeling a lingering fear:
“We’re lucky you acted so quickly, Mr.
Qin.
Otherwise, it could have been a disaster.”
That chanical dog wasn’t much of a threat itself; the terrifying part was it could beco an “infection source”.
If a shockwave similar to an electronic pulse had been released, the entire Jiushong Port’s electronic signals might have been compromised, becoming a pathway for invasion and “mutation”.
“How did an electronic demon appear in a Level V electronic ban zone?”
Lin Yunqing also felt a chill.
Coming from distinguished families, she and Chen Yun knew the details of Heng Province’s early expansion, especially the various branches of the Spiritual Ability system, most of which studied “demons”, which was her specialty.
“What is an electronic demon?”
Qin Shi, who had violently dismantled the chanical dog, asked nearby.
He had transford into the Cyan Steel Shadow to unleash the rapid kicks because his Extra-Sensory Perception had picked up a piercing buzzing sound, like a drill puncturing his brain, causing excruciating pain.
Then he found the source on that chanical dog.
“Yunqing, explain to Mr.
Qin here.
Damn, that bastard Qin Lihao caused such a ss; I need to report to the higher-ups imdiately!”
Chen Yun waved her hand, having no patience to explain the basics.
She just patted Qin Shi’s shoulder:
“Consider this resolved.
Credit to you, Mr.
Qin.”
With that, she rushed off to make a call.
Lin Yunqing bent over to examine the infected chanical dog, mumbling to herself:
“It too was invaded.
What’s the real source?
Following the usual demon infection paths: esoteric rituals using blood as a dium, offspring via mother-child bonds, self-sacrifice through intense emotions…”
The sight of the woman working seriously was not too bad.
Qin Shi recalled his sensory perception reaching its peak, observing Jiushong Port from a “god’s-eye view”.
The dense darkness wasn’t born from the chanical dog; it was like a dirty, chaotic ink, clinging to its surroundings, forming an invisible force field.
“Could it be…
blood?”
Qin Shi suddenly said.
“Teacher Lin, the inspection personnel initially wanted the chanical dog to collect blood samples for tracking.”
Lin Yunqing’s eyes widened, pondering for a mont:
“Right.
If ‘blood’ is the source, the infection path is the first one, the esoteric ritual.
Soone was possessed by the electronic demon!”
She concluded, preparing to inform Chen Yun to rember to issue a wanted notice.
Among the three infection paths, the most likely to cause widespread short-term damage was the living electronic demon.
“Mr.
Qin, do you rember what Chen said earlier?
The Dongxia’s Great Expedition and Great Expansion were actually rescues, not wars.”
Taking the opportunity while Chen Yun hadn’t returned, Lin Yunqing huddled in a corner with Qin Shi, starting to teach him.
She pulled out her phone, showing a “star map”.
Dongxia, centering on the Imperial Capital and Celestial Capital, established a vast territory guarded by thirty-two administrative districts.
“Since the establishnt of the Dongxia Republic, it was said that humanity’s steps covered most of the galaxy, but it never claid to have unified most of the galaxy.
But before the New Calendar, the ancient Dongxia, which spanned nine hundred millennia, at its peak ruled the entire galaxy.
That nine hundred millennia of rule was too long, with rulers and governance systems changing multiple tis, each epoch’s transition and end accompanied by catastrophic disasters.”
Qin Shi listened intently to these ancient tales, not recorded in history books, feeling as if he was getting closer to the truth of Heng Province’s developnt.
“The most tragic one ca from Dongxia itself.
It was humanity’s golden age; we explored, discovered, altered, and reaped.
Starting from the Ancestral Star, we set foot on the first Ancient Star, now known as ‘Taiyin’, which took two millennia.
When we reached ‘Yinghuo’, it was the third millennium.
After sixteen millennia, we had left the Solar System, using the ‘navigation technology’ to traverse and maneuver through the vast galaxy.”
As a top student in the Spiritual Ability system, Lin Yunqing was well-versed in this knowledge, recounting it fluently:
“Many years later, historians referred to this journey as ‘Eight Billion Mad Dogs Unleashed’.
The na isn’t pleasant, but it’s apt.
Humanity’s ambitions were incredibly inflated at the ti, viewing the galaxy as the throne of ultimate power, eager to seize it.
But the path to becoming the galactic overlord was clearly not smooth.
Soon, humanity encountered its greatest trouble, the ‘Star Gods’ born from the Star Core.
We called them ‘progeny’.
Each star that birthed life had a chance of giving rise to a young Star God, who initially slept, awakening only when maturing from embryo to adulthood.”
