Chapter 313: A New Mission
In just one day, the fate of the Humans changed drastically.
Sovereign took an unparalleled stance and directly beca the Controller of all Base Cities of Humans. Of course, others were unaware of this fact. All they knew was that the Human Emperor had given the highest position to Sovereign.
After the announcent was made, the voice of the System rang out, "Congratulations, Master, for completing the Fourth Ring task. You have taken control of all Humans' tasks. The next task is to annihilate a major force on Earth within three months. The rewards for completing the task are an upgrade in Commander permissions, ten chances to upgrade weapons, ten chances for unit evolution, and a mysterious grand prize."
Su Chen remained calm; after all, he already knew this task could be accomplished, so there was no need to get excited. But upon completing the Fourth Ring task, he received fifty million energy, which significantly replenished his energy reserves.
However, the second reward was what he needed most—the right to construct all units from Red Alert.
Without a doubt, the technology level in Red Alert was much higher than that of Red Alert itself, as evident from the chas alone.
Not only chas, even so units and weapons with the sa nas were much stronger.
"It's a pity that I still can't build the Superweapons from Red Alert. Otherwise, I could unleash a barrage of Superweapons and wipe out any eighth-order Mutant Beast."
But the new task from the System made Su Chen frown. Annihilating a major force on Earth within three months ant he had to eliminate Mutants or Mutant Beasts, right?
In terms of ti, it was quite tight because both forces were nurous, making it no easy task to wipe them out.
Thankfully, the System clarified that he didn't have to completely eradicate both forces. He only needed to eliminate roughly eighty percent of their strength to consider the mission accomplished.
With ti pressing, Su Chen didn't waste any ti. He selected so units from Red Alert and started building them. Soon, the five million energy reward from the task was gone.
Not just Red Alert units, Su Chen hadn't forgotten about the brand-new technology brought by Li Shaolong.
Yun Ru and various scientists were working overti, conducting comprehensive research on Li Shaolong's new technology, and they had made so progress.
For example, the Missile Destroyer, which was a formidable weapon on the seas.
Previous destroyers had only cannons and torpedoes, but their power was inferior. However, the Missile Destroyer was different—firing a missile would turn everything to ashes.
Besides the Missile Destroyer, there were also powerful battleships ard with heavy cannons. These were naval units absent in Red Alert.
Su Chen wouldn't let any opportunity to strengthen his forces slip by, as everything was in preparation for the day to co.
During this period, both Mutants and Mutant Beasts remained calm, which made Su Chen sowhat uneasy. So he inquired about Dahua and Spy No. 1's reports.
"Commander, everything is normal here. The eighth-order Mutant Beasts are not in contact with each other; it seems like they are waiting for sothing," replied Dahua.
"My situation here is the sa. The Mutant King hasn't approached
for any discussions, everything seems normal," said Spy No. 1.
The two major forces showed no signs of activity, which surprised Su Chen.
"Could it be that I'm overthinking?"
Just as Su Chen was thinking that way, his phone rang.
"Su Chen, we have a problem," ca Leng Yuwei's anxious voice.
"What happened?" Su Chen was puzzled. Wasn't Leng Yuwei performing well on the Eastern Front? Why was there trouble now?
"Earlier, you told
that I must not absorb eighth-order Energy Crystals until I reach eighth order. However, my strength has reached the mid-seventh order, and the Energy Crystals I absorbed were already from the late seventh order," Leng Yuwei said.
Su Chen's expression changed. He had never forgotten about Leng Yuwei's situation, as the System warned that if anything happened to her, Earth would be dood.
Even if Leng Yuwei was fine, if she absorbed eighth-order energy before reaching eighth order herself, the result would be the sa.
He had thought that Leng Yuwei's recent progress was good, but he didn't expect her absorption speed to be even faster.
Now she was at the late seventh order, and the next step was the peak of the seventh order. When she needed to absorb eighth-order energy, it would be disastrous.
"You co back imdiately," Su Chen couldn't let Leng Yuwei stay there any longer.
Leng Yuwei didn't hesitate and said, "I'll inform Eastern Emperor right away."
At first, Eastern Emperor disagreed when he heard that Leng Yuwei wanted to leave, as she was a significant force on the Eastern Front.
However, when Leng Yuwei revealed that it was Su Chen's request, he didn't say anything and allowed her to leave.
A few hours later, Leng Yuwei returned to the main base and noticed how much larger it had beco in just a few months.
When Leng Yuwei appeared before Su Chen, he stepped forward, standing only twenty centiters away from her, carefully observing her.
At this mont, the distance between the two was less than twenty centiters!
Leng Yuwei appeared calm on the surface, but her heart was far from composed.
She felt that the Su Chen before her was entirely different from the one she had t for the first ti.
Back then, Su Chen's face still carried a hint of innocence, but now, he exuded the majesty of a superior.
After observing her for a while, Su Chen's brow furrowed. He had used his ntal power but didn't find any issues with Leng Yuwei's body. Yet, she absorbed much more energy than others—what was going on?
"Yun Ru, co here for a mont," Su Chen called out.
"Commander, I'm currently researching a new weapon with Li Shaolong. Can it wait for a while?" Yun Ru tried to negotiate.
"No, this is an order."
"Alright, Commander, you're ruthless. Fine, fine, fine."
Not long after, Yun Ru arrived. Su Chen pointed at Leng Yuwei and said, "Take her and check what's causing the issue with her body."
"Is she the one?" Yun Ru's eyes brightened; she was full of curiosity when it ca to unknown things.
Leng Yuwei followed Yun Ru, and after so ti, Yun Ru's results ca out.
"Her body is fine, but her energy absorption efficiency is ten tis that of other Transcendents at the sa level. Strangely, the absorbed energy seems to disappear," Yun Ru said, also looking puzzled.
"No root cause can be found?"
"Not exactly. With the help of Little Scale, we finally discovered that most of the energy seems to enter her brain. According to Little Scale's speculation, it's possible that her soul has been damaged and needs a large amount of energy for repair."
Su Chen's expression changed; Leng Yuwei's soul had been damaged?
But from the outside, she showed no signs of any issues. What was going on?
