The whaling ship sailed across the ocean and rammed straight into a stretch of land.

The tremendous commotion attracted quite a few creatures. Naturally, they were all frightened away. Then the local humans were drawn over by the noise, wanting to see what had happened.

Only to be pounced on by the thousands upon thousands of Facehuggers that came down from the whaling ship.

By the time the Predator Ship arrived on Earth, it detected millions of Aliens across the surface.

Humanity had not been driven extinct by the Aliens.

Although the Aliens boasted extravagantly—claiming they could fly through the sky and burrow through the earth, that whatever they parasitized became theirs—

Still, just as Chang Wei had told The Jester, humans were the strongest, the Apex Predator. They suppressed all who refused to submit; everything else had either been eliminated or trampled beneath humanity's feet.

Especially since Aliens were not all that formidable. An outer shell Immune to Blades and Spears? A Xenomorph Queen with Immense Strength? Corrosive fluid that could dissolve anything?

If humanity were pushed too far and brought out every forbidden weapon, humans might survive, but the Aliens would definitely be finished.

The Predator Elder gave it one glance and dismissed it. It was desperate to find that prey, but when it went to the location from which Lone Wolf's signal had been sent, all it found was ruins—the Aliens' Nest.

The Predator Elder casually dispatched several subordinates to slaughter the Aliens. Unfortunately, they did not find the Predator Xenomorph or the powerful prey that had killed Lone Wolf.

But that did not matter. What Predators lacked least was patience. Rather, the current situation suited the Predator Elder perfectly.

If the prey were found too easily, the fun would be gone. If it were too weak, the interest would be gone as well.

It had been a long time since his blood had boiled.

The long-lost sensation made the Predator Elder's heart surge with excitement.

Then, with a single order from him, all the Predators aboard the ship left and began the cleanup operation, killing every Alien and witness. Too many witnesses?

No problem. The Predator Ship had an Energy Attack capable of sinking a continent with One shot. Lower the power a little, then scour the surface clean.

"Let me see... ten full Elite Predators, plus a whole bunch of Blood-stained Ones. Which Predator clan is this?"

Chang Wei had deployed his surveillance across the sky. Trillions upon trillions of Micro-dust level Blacklight Virus microorganisms made the best monitors, so the instant the Predators appeared, the Blacklight Virus microorganisms, sensitive to light and heat, locked onto them. Then, a layer of Blacklight Virus microorganisms covered the surface of the invisible Predator Ship.

Chang Wei was very cautious. He knew Predator technology Far exceeds his imagination and understanding. They could traverse wormholes, travel back and forth between Earth and the cosmos, and use planets as Hunting Grounds. One could imagine how vast the range of their activities was.

The idea that aliens who had crossed the stars could have their systems invaded by Earth's backward Computer Virus, be killed by Earth's bacteria and viruses, or be Blasted apart by Nuclear Weapons was pure fantasy. Any civilization capable of crossing between planets already possessed two terrifying advantages.

Materials Science plus Energy Science utterly crushed humanity!

These two disciplines were the foundations supporting humanity's current glorious civilization. Everything else could be absent, but not these two fundamentals. Their foundation was stronger than yours, so how could you possibly beat them?

It was as absurd as a Great Chieftain from the Stone Age defeating the Star River Empire's army while they piloted Gundam Mechs using stone tools.

In addition, the information Chang Wei had learned about the Predator race through the settings and Lone Wolf's memories made him even more cautious.

Chang Wei had seen too many examples of people becoming wildly arrogant after gaining success, only to end up dead. So even with the Super Virus System and the Emperor Blacklight Virus, two things that could be called terrifying, he would not foolishly charge head-on at the Predators like a brute.

"Very good. It looks like they haven't Opened their Energy Shield..."

The Blacklight Virus microorganisms covering the entire Predator Ship did not draw the Predators' attention or vigilance. That was a good thing.

Then, none of the Predators who left the ship noticed the Blacklight Virus microorganisms surrounding them spreading onto their bodies. Their masks' filters prevented the Blacklight Virus microorganisms from invading, but they could enter through their Pores.

He did not attack lone Predators one by one. That would be too inefficient and could easily alert the enemy. Better to take them all down in one move!

As for the Predator Elder, Chang Wei intended to save him for last.

He wanted to test the Predator Elder's true caliber.

"Looking at it this way, I seem a bit like a villain..."

Chang Wei pondered this as he remained in his Camouflage Matter state. The Predators could not detect him, while he could move freely, openly eating Ice Cream as he watched the Three-way Melee between the Predators, Aliens, and humans that he had provoked.

Then the Blacklight Virus microorganisms would take over nature's biological decomposition process, devouring and breaking down dead organisms at tens of thousands of times nature's speed. The benefit was that Gene Points flowed in even while Chang Wei sat still!

He did not even need to personally fight and kill, nor did the Hunter need to fight and kill.
