Technological practice: leading the human race to the stars

Chapter 82 Assassination (I)

The people around him were so focused on the battle that they had no time to notice Yuan Ze running to the edge of the battlefield. However, Commander Chu Lan, who was watching the battle from a distance, frowned. For a Yuan warrior, escaping from a battle was considered a great shame.

"Lu Zhengxi!" Commander Chu Lan shouted angrily to the person in charge of the elite training camp mission next to him, "What's the name of that kid in the elite training camp? On the battlefield, this kind of behavior will be executed on the spot by the supervisor!"

The person in charge looked unhappy, not only dissatisfied with Chu Lan's anger, but also disappointed with Yuan Ze's actions. However, he chose to remain silent and did not immediately answer Chu Lan's question.

"You..." Commander Chu Lan was about to get angry again but was interrupted by Commander Chen Shuai.

"Let's watch first." Commander Chen Shuai said in a steady tone, "We are not fighting on the battlefield, so we need to stay calm. Besides, I believe in Sun Zeyuan's vision, and his friend Yuan Ze will definitely not be much worse."

Hearing Commander Chen Shuai's advice, Commander Chu Lan took a deep breath, and the anger on his face was gradually replaced by calmness. He nodded, indicating that he understood what Commander Chen Shuai meant.

At the same time, Lu Zhengxi also specially dispatched a stealth drone to closely monitor Yuan Ze's movements. They stared at the screen, not daring to slack off, wanting to witness with their own eyes what kind of strength this young man would show in the next battle.

In a secluded place far away from the noisy battlefield, Yuanze, relying on Astra's precise guidance, flexibly took a shortcut and quietly arrived at the rear position of the extraordinary source beast.

He used the same trick again, cleverly mixing the forest lizard's toxin into the air, and then with the help of a gust of east wind, sent all the toxins into the source beast's temporary "command post".

The location of this command post was chosen with great care, cleverly utilizing an area naturally rich in source magnetite ore.

The natural energy emitted by these minerals formed a powerful shielding field, blocking human detection and making the command post as difficult to detect as if it were invisible.

However, it is this unique geographical advantage that provides a perfect opportunity for Yuan Ze's poisonous plan. Yuan Ze activates the source power with some magnetism, so that this gust of poisonous wind will quickly spread silently to every corner.

He leaned against a big tree, quietly watching the guards at the door fall one by one, secretly rejoicing in his heart, and carefully explored the interior of the command post bit by bit.

Those source beasts below the peak level had completely lost their combat effectiveness and were lying on the ground dying; and although the peak level source beasts could resist the poison a little longer, they were already at the end of their strength under the continuous erosion of the toxin, and their combat effectiveness was completely depleted.

"who is it!"

The extraordinary source beast that was resting with its eyes closed suddenly became alert. However, the poison had already quietly accumulated in its body, gradually eroding its defenses.

It is not surprising that this extraordinary source beast can speak. For a source beast that has been promoted to extraordinary level, it already has a certain level of intelligence, so it is normal for it to use human language.

At this moment, Yuan Ze had carefully circled behind it, ready to take advantage of its unpreparedness and deliver a fatal blow. After all, the poison had greatly weakened its defense capabilities.

However, the transparent source beast was still keenly aware of Yuan Ze's presence and swung its tail violently towards him. Yuan Ze reacted quickly and immediately retreated.

Suddenly, the lynx, which looked like a big cat in front of him, jumped up and faded out of the space.

Yuan Ze's heart tightened, and he immediately activated the overclocking function of the gene chip, forcibly raising himself to the peak level. Facing this elusive source beast, if you are not careful, you may fall into an irretrievable situation, even if it is now in a poisoned state.

"Not only did you fail to assassinate him, but you became the prey instead." Astra said with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"Stop messing around, help me analyze it. I feel like this ability has been recorded in some alien civilizations." "Don't worry, this is the first time this kind of source beast has been recorded in my database, I have to collect data first."

"I don't have that much time..."

Before Yuanze could finish his words, the transparent lynx suddenly appeared from nowhere and went straight for Yuanze's throat with its mouth open.

He subconsciously crossed his arms and activated the defensive force field, barely blocking the fierce attack.

However, Yuanze felt several bursts of severe pain in his waist and abdomen, and was knocked back and hit the cave wall. There were deep claw marks on his battle suit, and some parts were even torn open.

The moment the lynx slapped Yuanze away, it also revealed a brief flaw. Yuanze seized this opportunity and kicked it hard in the head. The lynx grabbed the ground with its four feet, making a harsh "sizzling" sound of metal cutting, and rubbed backwards for a long time before it stabilized its body.

"Humans are indeed human. Their combat intelligence is much higher than those low-level source beasts. They first use poison, then sneak attack, and even find opportunities to counterattack during my attacks."

"You're not bad either."

Yuanze lowered his mask, spat out the blood that was about to come up in his throat, and without further ado, he took out his phase gun and fired at the lynx source beast that was temporarily unable to defend itself.

The lynx knew that it could not resist under the firepower, so it could only dodge the bullets flexibly and look for opportunities to fight back. The two of them started a chase around the winding passage in the cave.

Whenever the lynx tried to hide behind a boulder or a corner, Yuanze remained alert and did not chase it rashly. Instead, he moved slowly along the wall of the cave to reduce the risk of being attacked.

"Its ability is confirmed."

This is a changeling lynx, which has the rare ability to simply utilize space. This ability comes from a unique organ in its body - the "space gland".

This mysterious gland can trigger dimensional resonance of the "string", thereby creating tiny spatial cracks, allowing the phantom lynx to "jump" freely and briefly in spatial cracks within a certain range.

What's even more amazing is that this space gland can also generate and control a special kind of source force foam. These bubbles exist at the wonderful intersection of the microscopic and macroscopic worlds, and evenly cover the entire body of the phantom lynx, closely connecting it with the nearby space.

This foam can not only wrap up the space cracks and stabilize their existence, but also allow the phantom lynx to move freely in it without being noticed by the outside world.

"Where's the weakness?" Yuanze looked to the sides and front vigilantly, fearing that it would suddenly jump out and attack.

"Superstring Locking Technology."

"What is this?"

Yuanze was stunned and felt a little confused by this unfamiliar term.

String theory emerged.
