Li Xing's Android, Secretly Manipulated

"What?"

Bulma stared at Li Xing in shock.

Li Xing frowned.

"No, strictly speaking, it's that guy called Polar Night, the Dark Night Monarch. But that person seems to have appeared out of thin air; our group has no information on him, so his data is unknown. As for the rest, the strongest is Jackie Chun, also known as Master Roshi, with a power level of 138, followed by Sun Wukong at 102, and then Krillin at 68. The others aren't worth mentioning."

Li Xing tapped on the table.

"The strength of our Aurora Group Security Department is all above 100. Do you think we need the experts you mentioned to add luster to the Aurora Martial Arts Peak Tournament?"

Bulma opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Strictly speaking, Li Xing's words were likely not exaggerated at all. They had absolutely no need for it. That meant Li Xing truly possessed the strength to carry this out. In that case, the ultimate goal of the Aurora Group in hosting this martial arts tournament was self-evident.

Li Xing watched Bulma fall into deep thought, feeling immensely smug. He wanted to use Bulma's mouth to announce the Aurora Group's plans to the entire world. This project wouldn't be launched by the Aurora Group until at least a year later, after the championship tournament was completed. More importantly, it would be best if Master Roshi and the others participated. A Super Warrior Team composed of them would be relatively powerful. Bulma's role was still very significant.

If there was nothing else, Li Xing didn't want to offend this woman. It was best to appease her if possible. If she couldn't be appeased, then he would simply nudge her to act according to his own goals. For now, this kind of manipulation was the best and most appropriate course of action.

"How is this possible?"

Li Xing pointed toward the door, signaling for Bulma to leave. Once was enough; he wasn't going to waste time educating Bulma. Next, the Aurora Martial Arts Tournament was about to begin. He had to start working hard to complete the next task. This system provided very little each time, and since he had finally obtained a skill, he naturally needed to hold onto it tightly and not let it slip away. Completing the task—Li Xing would start now, from this very moment.

Watching Bulma leave in a huff, Li Xing didn't stop her; instead, he felt quite pleased. Once she disappeared from sight, his expression turned cold.

"Wisdom!"

"I am here, Engineer."

"The Android research for Polar Night is complete, right?"

"Yes, Engineer."

"Wait for my signal. Mass-produce them and set them for quantum teleportation."

"Understood, Engineer."

Li Xing said nothing more, his face cold and indifferent. Using such unperfected technology, and doing so at a crowded event like the Laser Martial Arts Tournament, showed that Li Xing was truly deranged and reckless. He had become obsessed with elevating himself.

One month later.

The first batch of top-tier personnel in the cities for the martial arts tournament had already secured their positions. As long as they maintained their standing, they would be able to participate in the regional tournament six months later. Even if they couldn't, the prize money was enticing enough. If one could occupy the first-place spot for a long time, the funding provided by the Aurora Group alone was an excellent benefit.

What a pity.

This day.

The entire world underwent a sudden mutation.

Above at least a hundred cities, pitch-black vortexes suddenly appeared in the sky.

A strange, eerie, and cold voice emerged.

"Humans of Earth.

I am your creator."

In the frigid lands north of North City.

Li Xing wore a strange expression, forcing himself to suppress the urge to vomit.

He controlled the voice changer and spoke toward the vortex in front of him.

"From now on, the Kyrieloid will rule over you."

"Next, I invite the squad members under us, the Kyrieloid, to come and take charge of you.

To prevent you from being disobedient, here is a little gift to start with.

Mourn, And anticipate."

After finishing his words, Li Xing shut his mouth and closed the channel to the outside world.

"Wisdom, pull up the large screen."

Li Xing's gaze was resolute, his chiseled, handsome face filled with anticipation.

Androids—if this technology could be perfected, he couldn't even imagine how much it would help him.

If he could research a batch of androids like Android 17 and Android 18, rather than the current ones controlled by Wisdom.

By fighting against that group, Li Xing's strength might just skyrocket.

Soon, the signal of the first android vanished.

Immediately after, like falling dominoes, a chain reaction occurred, and many android signals disappeared from the screen.

Li Xing knew that those androids disappearing from the screen meant death.

He watched the first image that vanished: a child with a stubborn and strong expression.

Behind him, a tail stretched out in the air.

In the background were panicked ordinary people and vast ruins.

"Sun Wukong, heh heh, I've come to play with you. I hope you've improved so you can help me take another step forward."

As Li Xing's words fell, pitch-black liquid flowed over his entire body.

His figure gradually faded into the depths of the cave.

Inside the cave, frame after frame flashed by.

A three-eyed man, a short fellow dressed like a clown floating silently in the air, Master Roshi carrying his turtle shell, the bald Krillin, as well as some martial arts gym masters, and a group of security personnel wearing the uniform of the Aurora Martial Arts Tournament.

Overall, out of the one hundred androids across the world, 30 had died so far, while the remaining sixty-plus were currently wreaking havoc outside.

Many families were destroyed, companies went bankrupt, and people fled in a panic.

Much justice and much evil were occurring simultaneously.

The myriad states of human life were constantly playing out in these cities.

Li Xing would not concern himself with any of this.

Either he would become strong, or his opponents would; Li Xing could borrow strength in either case.

As for the rest, they were merely nutrients, dividends, and ore—not worth mentioning at all.

It took Li Xing less than five minutes to quickly locate the city where Sun Wukong was.

As for this thing called Quantum Realm teleportation, Li Xing didn't dare to experiment with it.

For now, flying on his own was more reliable.

If something went wrong during the teleportation and he ended up trapped in the Quantum Realm or dismembered, the loss would outweigh the gain.

"We meet again."

Sun Wukong had nowhere to vent his anger; seeing the wailing and misery all around him and not knowing what to do, he was naturally overjoyed when Li Xing appeared before him clad in Black Armor.

Without a word, Li Xing threw a punch.

"Wait, wait, let's deal with these matters at hand first; so many people are injured."

Sun Wukong channeled power into his legs, erupted with immense force, and leaped away.

He didn't forget to remind Li Xing even as he spoke.

Li Xing, naturally, did not care.

After such a long time, he needed to determine whether Sun Wukong had truly made any progress, and whether he could provide him with more benefits.

Landing with a nimble grace, Li Xing quickly caught up to Sun Wukong.

"Hey, mysterious man in black, didn't you hear me talking to you?"

"There are still many people here who have been injured, and I need to find a way to save them first."

"Besides!"
