Li Chen and the others froze on the spot when they heard Megatron's words.
Their eyes widened in shock as they stared at Megatron as though he were some kind of monster.
Refining living humans...
Into Energy Crystal Cores?
It was the first time they had ever heard of something so horrifying.
For a moment, even someone like Li Chen...
Felt his scalp tingle.
A chill ran through his entire body.
Li Chen quickly came back to his senses.
He coughed lightly twice.
Awkwardly, he glanced at Mu Xiao, Mu Yao, Mu Tian, and the others.
He noticed that they had also barely recovered their senses.
Yet none of them said anything.
Their eyes still held deep apprehension.
Li Chen coughed lightly twice again.
Then he turned to Megatron.

Li Chen gave him a meaningful look.
He had originally wanted Megatron to stop discussing the subject.
Who would have thought that Megatron would misunderstand him?
He assumed Li Chen meant exactly what he had said on the surface.
He began explaining again with great interest and casual composure.
"Master, the principle is very simple."
"Everything in the universe possesses energy and can be regarded as an individual energy body."
"Humans are no exception, including you, me, and everyone present here."
"Every one of us is an individual energy body."
"However, we are not pure energy bodies, but complex energy bodies mixed with numerous impurities."
"All that is needed is to remove and refine away every impurity in the body."
"Then all that remains will be pure energy."
"This extracted pure energy is completely harmless and can be used directly..."
Megatron failed to notice Li Chen's meaningful look.
At that moment, he kept rattling on with his explanation.
That only made Li Chen
