Chapter 156 Lao Gang and the Insects
Such familiar lines, such an arrogant tone.
Russell paused, turned around, and looked in the direction of the sound. In front of a joystick game machine, a thin, dark-skinned man with curly hair was holding something that looked like a game machine and angrily challenging the hooded man in front of him to a bet. A hint of fear flashed in the hooded man's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
[The host has come into contact with the story character Wu Gang (blue). The current causal connection is 0%, triggering a lottery draw *white 1. Draw now?]
Russell's lips twitched.
Good, he probably knows which world he's in now.
Judging from the expression on Sha Shirui's face, he probably thought that Xiao Gang had pulled out the summoner because he was desperate to beat him up. He didn't expect that it was actually a bet using the summoner.
Shatarry was also bewildered. He was just trying to find a way to steal the summoner from Xiao Gang, and now this kid had taken it out himself? Was he testing him? With this thought in mind, Shatarry's expression became serious, ready to switch to battle mode at any moment. He began to probe, "What is this thing? I don't want it."
Across from him, Xiao Gang, seeing that Sharit had no idea it was an armor summoner, instantly became incredibly wise. His expression shifted from apprehension to realization, from realization to smug delight, and from smug delight to confidence—all in less than a second. He straightened his back, slammed the summoner on the table, and roared, "Alright! We'll bet on this! If I lose, I'll bring the money!"
That momentum, that posture—that's what you call boldness and confidence.
Three minutes later, unsurprisingly, Lao Gang lost the transformation device.
A smug smile appeared on Shatar's lips as he picked up the summoner, turned around, and left.
Seeing Xiao Gang sitting dejectedly in his seat, Russell scratched his head anxiously. "You truly are worthy of your name, Lao Gang, a genius of the Gang generation."
Well, he'll have to clean up the mess.
When facing villains, one must uphold the belief of General Xin Yi: if something can be resolved today, it should never be left until tomorrow.
On the other side, as soon as Sha Terui stepped out of the arcade, he vanished into the ground as a shadow, speeding towards the direction of the Ba Wang Group.
The mission went unexpectedly smoothly, and now that they have obtained the King Kong Summoner, all they need to do is acquire Fei Ying and Xing Tian so they can return to Ares and reclaim their rightful glory.
His idea was good, but there's an old Chinese saying that one shouldn't get too carried away with success.
Clearly, Sharit, this alien country bumpkin, didn't understand this principle, and so he was stopped at an intersection.
Under the dazzling purple light, a tremendous force erupted from the ground, forcefully shaking him out from his hiding place underground.
"Who is it!?" Shatar, who had transformed back into his Netherworld Demon form, looked around warily.
"Stop looking, it's right here."
The voice came from above. Sha Terui quickly looked up and saw an Earthling in a black robe standing on a street lamp, arms crossed, looking down at him with a mocking smile on his face.
"Who are you?!" Shatar asked warily, gripping the Thorn Ghost Club tighter in his hand. His warrior's instincts told him that the person in front of him was dangerous.
"Me? I'm just a Kamen Rider passing by." Russell leaped down from the lamppost, landed on the ground, and beckoned to Sharit: "Good boy, hand over the summoner."
"You're dreaming!" Sha Terui's pupils suddenly contracted, and he roared angrily, stomping his foot heavily.
The ground cracked, sending large chunks of mud, sand, and rocks flying, and a sudden gust of wind arose, whipping up clouds of dust. In the next instant, he had already leaped in front of Russell, gripping the Thorn Demon Club with both hands, raising it high, and slamming it down with all his might!
The thorny ghost club in his hand was no ordinary item; it was forged from ghost meteorite over a thousand years and weighed two thousand catties on its own.
A whooshing sound filled the air, and dark red patterns on the shaft lit up.
Russell calmly raised his hand, spread his fingers, and with his palm facing up, steadily caught the bat.
Hmm, not bad strength. With this level of power, one could easily kill everyone in the original Tianlong world.
So, what about defense?
Thinking this, Russell forcefully snatched the Thorn Ghost Club from Shatter's hand and swung it horizontally.
The Thorn Demon Club traced an arc through the air, whistling through the wind, before slamming heavily into Shatar's abdomen.
boom!
The air was compressed to its limit and then exploded, a visible shockwave spreading out from the point of impact, sending roadside trash cans, GG signs, and bicycles flying.
Russell stood still, maintaining his swinging stance, looking at the blue cube gene code floating in front of him and the King Kong summoner that had fallen to the ground, and coughed somewhat awkwardly.
He overestimated the Netherworld Demon's physique, using just a tiny bit too much force, and one blow turned him into genetic code.
However, it's not a big problem. Based on the impact of that blow, he can roughly guess the limit of Sha Shirui's endurance.
It can only be said that they are worthy of being warriors of the Netherworld Legion. Even without armor, their physical defense is beyond the reach of ordinary carbon-based creatures.
There was also this data-driven genetic code technology. Russell took the genetic code and summoner from the ground into his hands and probed into them with his divine sense.
According to the setting of Armor II, after being defeated, the Netherworld Demon will transform into a genetic code form. As long as the genetic code is not completely erased, it can be resurrected in a place with sufficient energy.
In the world of cultivation, this technology would be considered an extremely profound art of soul storage and reconstruction. It involves compressing and encoding all the information of a life into a tiny cube, which can then be decompressed and restored when conditions are right.
This is technology, and it is also metaphysics, or rather, it is the metaphysics of technology and the technology of metaphysics.
A second later, Russell gave up on figuring out how this thing worked.
The genetic code was filled with characters he couldn't understand, and it was undoubtedly an encoding method he had never seen before.
They are arranged irregularly according to a strange pattern, nested layer upon layer, like a maze built of data and algorithms, which Russell could not understand.
Although technology and spiritual practice lead to the same goal, it is clear that the technology in this area is beyond Russell's current comprehension.
As the saying goes, when people are pushed to the limit, they'll do anything, except solve math problems.
In any world, there are cultivators who suddenly experience a breakthrough due to their mental state, either increasing their combat power or raising their cultivation level. But Russell has never heard of a mathematician who suddenly experienced a breakthrough because he was extremely determined to solve a problem and comprehended knowledge that he had not comprehended before.
Therefore, professional matters should be handled by professionals.
[Chat Group Channel]
[Group notification: Group member Russell sent a designated red envelope of 1]
Russell: "@Han Li. Model worker, look at the gift your buddy prepared for you."
Han Li: "?"
The story of a mortal cultivating immortality spreads throughout the world, at the Luoyun Sect.
Having returned to Tiannan, Han Li, just like in the original story, joined the Luoyun Sect with all his possessions. Although it was fifty years earlier than the original timeline, and Cheng Tiankun was not yet nearing the end of his lifespan, the long-weakened Luoyun Sect would naturally not let go of a powerful ally who brought along three Nascent Soul cultivators.
The Supreme Elder Cheng Tiankun personally allocated the mountain with the most abundant spiritual energy in the sect to Han Li, and specially arranged for an exquisite courtyard to be built on the mountaintop, along with several disciples to serve him.
Han Li named the mountain Green Bamboo Peak, and a new laboratory was established there. The laboratory was built underground, dozens of feet deep into the mountain.
What? You're asking how another Nascent Soul cultivator suddenly appeared beside Han Li, besides Li Feiyu and Qu Hun?
Just kidding. Han Li is now a powerful and well-equipped army, returning home in glory. How could he not go to the Hidden Moon Sect to demand an explanation from the female demon who stole his virginity and absorbed his cultivation?
After a while, Nangong Wan naturally followed Han Li to the Luoyun Sect.
In addition, Han Li also approached the Han and Li families, who were far away in the Xu Kingdom.
Han Li personally returned to Xu Kingdom, leaving Qu Hun and Wen Tianren there. They would establish a clan school there, selecting talented children from the Han and Li families and sending them to the laboratory for training.
At this moment, in the laboratory, Han Li opened the red envelope sent by Russell, looked at the Rubik's Cube flashing blue light in his hand, and curiously typed a question mark.
Han Li: "Fellow Daoist Luo, what is this?"
Russell: "The fresh genetic code."
"6
Xiao Yan: "?"
Xiao Yan: "Did you draw this? Or did it end up in another world?"
Russell: "Little Yanzi is the smartest. This is the genetic code of the Netherworld Demon from Armor Hero Xingtian. I think this thing should be helpful for your research on gene technology."
Genetic code?
Han Li held the gene code in his palm, probed it with his divine sense, and felt the dense and unfamiliar coding method. His eyes lit up.
Unlike Russell, who was completely clueless, he could see the vast amount of information contained within it.
Han Li: "Wait a moment, let me scan and try."
"Dali." Han Li called out immediately after closing the chat group.
"The detector is preparing." Zhuge Dali's voice came from the direction of the main control panel without looking up.
She was wearing a white lab coat, her long hair tied in a neat ponytail, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses perched on her nose. She was intently operating something on the screen in front of her.
Han Li nodded in satisfaction. Since Zhuge Dali joined the laboratory, his workload had decreased by nearly a third.
Many things didn't need him to mention; Dali had already prepared everything in advance.
For example, this time, before he even spoke, she had already started warming up the detector. Not to mention her exceptional talent; in less than two years since she arrived, she has already helped him improve the basic algorithms of many devices, optimized the data processing flow, and saved him an immeasurable amount of time.
Han Li sometimes thinks that if he had met Dali a few years earlier, his research progress would have been at least twice as fast, but it's not too late now.
A few seconds later, the detector was ready. Han Li placed the gene code into the detection chamber, stepped back, and watched the door slowly close.
The test began, and beams of light shot out from the instrument, scanning the genetic code from various angles. This was a spiritual energy spectrum scanner developed by Han Li, combining cultivation formations with modern optical technology, capable of analyzing the composition and encoding of matter at the microscopic level.
The moment the light swept across the genetic code, a large stream of data appeared on the large screen in the center of the laboratory.
"The underlying code is encrypted." Zhuge Dali pushed up his glasses and said, while quickly jotting down useful information on the manuscript paper.
Han Li rubbed his chin, staring at the completely unfamiliar symbols and encoding on the screen. After a moment of contemplation, he asked, "If we use brute force, how long would it take to decipher it?"
"Thirteen hundred years." Zhuge Dali mentally calculated and gave the answer: "There are many symbols unique to the planet Ares. The meaning of these symbols will take time to decipher. Moreover, the encryption algorithm is not linear, but multi-layered. After each layer is deciphered, there is another layer. The brute-force method is very inefficient and basically not feasible."
Han Li nodded. In that case, exhaustive search would not be suitable. However, this was not something to be disappointed about. This level of encryption indicated that the technology behind the gene code was far more advanced than he had expected. If he could decipher it, his expertise in gene technology would take a leap forward.
Han Li: "We need more genetic code. Oh, and it would be even better if we could also get Ares's book annotations."
Russell: "Understood."
Russell patted the Vajra Armor Summoner in his hand and narrowed his eyes. From the scene of the prisoner losing the summoner, he could deduce that they were now in the sequel timeline, which meant they had reached the end of the story. Fortunately, at this point in time, almost all the Netherworld Demons had been resurrected.
Then there are many more things he can do.
It's important to understand that for Russell, the most important thing about the Xingtian world is neither genetic code nor Shura Armor.
It is an energy crystal, an energy crystal that gathers all the energy of a planet.
According to the rules set by the Cosmic King, anyone who collects energy crystals from more than half of the planets in a galaxy can become the ruler of that galaxy.
Over the course of a thousand years across the universe, Lufa collected 26,000 energy crystals, which were then sealed in the Afas.
As for the location of the Afars —
Hmm, what was the name of the restaurant that welcomed us?
BaWang Group, a secret office room.
Lu Fa, possessed by Ba Dou, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with a stinging pain and an indescribable confusion.
Sarret's genetic code information has disappeared.
It wasn't sealed by the armor, but completely disappeared; even Ares' summoning order couldn't lock onto its aura.
"Baru".
At Lu Fa's call, a plume of black smoke shot out from the ground, transformed into a human figure, and knelt on one knee before Lu Fa: "General."
"The information in Sharit's genetic code has disappeared. Go and check where he went recently, but don't leave any clues." The famous military strategist, Cheng Yu Shi Zhe Lu Fa, began his jujube-shaped troop deployment.
Besides Geng making the Vajra, another person or Lan has appeared on Earth who can completely eliminate the genetic code. He can't eat or sleep if he doesn't figure out what it is.
"Yes, ma'am."
