Chapter 1111 - Manison: I Lack a Sense of Security (2/2)
Humph! What an ambitious b*stard!
Manison probably has more Lord’s Avatars than the number of trap nodes. He will definitely come into contact with the virus core, so he’s basically unbeatable. While the rest of us can only rely on luck…
Han Xiao massaged the bridge of his nose.
The number of people stationed at each location was not limited. Manison would basically be everywhere, so there was no way of dodging him.
When the three Universal Civilizations have decided on the trap nodes, I’d better let Harrison help choose the ambush locations…
If my luck fails me and I don’t end up meeting the virus core, I’ll just live with it.
However, if I do meet the virus core, Manison’s avatar will most likely be around too. I’ll have to compete with him, and it definitely won’t be just a verbal negotiation.
I’ll just have to improvise…
If he had any advantages at all, it was that he did not have to care about whether the virus core was dead or not. The others all wanted to capture it alive and parse it for the full Domino Virus technology, while he had the [Intelligent Plague) mission, which would give him a related talent if he eliminated the virus core personally. Given the specialty of the Domino Virus, the related talent would most likely have something to do with Virtual Technology.
Although he would lose the opportunity to obtain the full technology this way, thinking about it, if the three Universal Civilizations or other Beyond Grade As obtained such a powerful virtual virus, it might not be a good thing. Furthermore, even if he obtained it, it would be a hot potato. Countless people, including the three Universal Civilizations, would have their eyes on him at all times.
However, the Domino Virus technology could also become a powerful weapon against the World Tree Civilization.
Han Xiao was stuck in a dilemma.
Never mind, it’s too early to think of all this. I’ll first have to make sure I meet the virus. Only then will I have the chance to compete with Manison…
He focused his thoughts.
Anyway, this would be a huge operation, so the preparation stage would last quite some time, meaning he had sufficient time. He could add some production lines and produce as many Lord’s Avatars as possible to be stationed at more locations, increasing the chance of him meeting the virus core.
“This information is from Black Star?”
Meanwhile, the remote projections of the three Universal Civilizations’ leaders gathered and listened to the report from Sidreun and the other two.
Right after the meeting hosted by Black Star ended, the three monitors contacted their three leaders through the one and only coded channel that was connected to the outside world to explain the operation plan, hoping to get approval.
After hearing it, Urranrell crossed her hands before her chest and slowly said, “If what Black Star said is true, he’ll be a great hero of the explored universe who saved it from a disaster. Without his prophecy, we’d all have to pay a bloody price to discover the truth of the Virtual Mutiny Virus.”
“Hmm, the brief structure of this plan came from him too. If we catch the virus core because of it, Black Star will indeed be a hero to the entire universe who changed the disaster of a future he saw in the prophecy.” Bader expressed his compliments too.
“Black Star is indeed worthy of merit.” The church’s pope agreed too.
Ie
Putting aside their beef in the past, both the Federation of Light and the Arcane Church recognized and appreciated what Han Xiao did in the battle against the Intelligent Plague. He acted very reliably and contributed a lot. Having thought of that, the three of them looked at each other and nodded.
“We shall approve of this operation. We allow you to deploy the resources in the Ancient Star Desert to execute this plan. Don’t disappoint
us.”
“Understood,” Sidreun quickly replied.
The church’s pope suddenly said, “One more thing, do make sure that the virus core ends up in our control in the end. We can’t let any non-direct members obtain it.”
“That’s right. The Virtual Mutiny Virus is a weapon of war. It’s too dangerous. We must not let this technology get leaked, or the order of the universe will be threatened.”
Bader agreed and added, “Especially Black Star and Mechanic Emperor. If a peak Beyond Grade A Virtual Mechanic gets this technology and improves it, it might become something even more dangerous than the Intelligent Plague.”
Even though Manison was the Federation of Light’s ally, Bader knew what was more important.
Although they all wanted this technology, the three of them clearly understood that preventing a fourth party from obtaining this virus technology was more important.
In the eyes of the three Universal Civilizations, they had to have a monopoly on this kind of extremely powerful weapon of war. Only then would it be beneficial for the entire universe.
Somewhere in the Ancient Star Desert, a small civilian transport fleet had arrived at a desolate planet.
This was a legitimate galactic transportation company. It was not large and did not have much of a name for itself. It only operated on a few fixed routes. Its business range was limited to between several Star Zones of the same Star System. There was a small desolate universe belt there. Due to its size, the advanced civilizations did not set up any stargates. Hence, there were quite a number of long-distance transport companies that filled this gap.
The transport fleet slowly came to a stop in this planet’s orbit.
“Let’s resupply here. There are fuel resources on this planet. We’re going to collect some.”
Inside the main ship, the senior captain, who had worked in this transport company for many years, gave the order.
Suddenly, an observation officer said, “Captain, the radar shows that this planet is shrouded by a strange electromagnetic storm.”
The captain was surprised. He moved to the porthole and saw that the atmosphere of this desolate planet was filled with flickering light-blue electrical sparks. It looked like a looming electromagnetic shell.
“That’s weird. I’ve run this transportation route for decades and stopped god knows how many times on this planet. When did this appear here?” the captain murmured and looked at the radar again.
The more he looked at the electromagnetic field structure, the more he felt it looked familiar.
“The structure of this electromagnetic field…” the observation officer said with hesitation. “Why does it look somewhat like the bio-electrical network of the neurons’ movements in the brain of a living life form?”
The captain was startled. When he looked at it more carefully again, the structure of this electromagnetic field totally looked like a brain that was enlarged countless times.
“Could it be alive? Is it an electromagnetic field life form?”
The captain was surprised. This kind of life form had always been rare. They could be sold to collectors with special tastes at quite a high price.
Having thought of that, the captain immediately ordered, “Quickly, try to capture it!”
However, as soon as he said that, the electromagnetic storm shrouding the planet suddenly dissipated into thin air like it had never appeared. There were no signs of it on the radar too.
The members inside the cabin were all startled.
“Am I tripping?”
The captain rubbed his eyes with shock.
