Xu Long had a vague premonition that the Great Wilderness Main World was about to undergo tremendous changes.
This change would completely alter the current situation, and could even become unmanageable.
Xu Long didn't know what would happen before, but he still chose to let the Red Queen develop technology, and invested a lot of points in it.
Even if his premonition was wrong, the knowledge he accumulated would still be of great help to him.
But if his premonition is correct, technology will bring him an unparalleled advantage.
His premonition proved correct; the changes that were about to occur in the Main World were far more than just enormous—they were unimaginable.
A chaotic war raged among countless races, with powerful figures everywhere.
A weak race like humans simply doesn't have the right to compete with those powerful races.
Xu Long knew what he had to do: to make humanity no longer weak and to give everyone the opportunity to cultivate themselves.
Just think about it, with billions or even tens of billions of A-rank, even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, how many S-rank would be created?
Having crossed this Daoist Sect, the road ahead, though still difficult, now holds hope.
Xu Long was not Saint; he simply wanted to give humanity hope—the hope of contending with all races in the near future.
The tremor came and went quickly, and apart from Xu Long and many S-rank experts, no one noticed the change.
The construction team from Aiji, who had been waiting on the perimeter, immediately started work. However, after the first blow, they discovered that things were not so simple.
We can't dig it up!
The construction team changed their excavating tools, but they still couldn't dig it out.
Left with no other choice, they had to swallow their pride and ask China for help, since China is number one in the world in terms of infrastructure.
After spending a lot of money to buy some high-end equipment, they were able to dig, but the speed was as slow as scraping a cup, a truly appalling sight.
Only then did everyone realize what had happened.
This is beyond their ability to participate in; it requires the intervention of cultivators.
It was three days later when Xu Long returned to Aiji. During this time, he had been busy killing the Exploding Bear Mage and berserker from Northern Russia.
A good bear is one that's half-dead, but Xu Long killed it outright, so it's not a good bear.
The Fire King, the Mount Mang Corpse King, the Celestial Master Yuanling, and the Master Miaofa gathered together, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere with their S-rank strength.
The Pope of Western Europe and the Blood Wolf King stood to one side, while the Saints of Xila stood on the other.
The numbers have remained largely unchanged, but the situation has reached a very alarming level.
Pharaoh was instantly killed by Xu Long in one move, and after three days, even the two S-rank from Northern Russia have disappeared.
At this moment, China has gained an absolute advantage.
There are two in Western Europe and one in Xila. The whole world combined doesn't have as many as China, not to mention Xu Long and Xu Hu.
It appears that China is the only dominant power.
But only the Fire King and the others knew that it wasn't like that at all.
Although Xu Long is China, he is not of the same mind as them.
"What to do?"
The Xila Bronze Saints was completely bewildered; he couldn't understand the situation at all, given his intelligence.
"I just tried. That Flint Crystal mine is shrouded in a strange power. We could break it open with our strength, but the Flint Crystal mine is too large, and it would be too time-consuming and laborious, making it not worth the effort."
The Mount Mang Corpse King frowned. If the Flint Crystal gathered together, it wouldn't matter if they, as S-rank beings, took action.
But that's where the problem lies: Flint Crystal are distributed individually, not in large clumps like iron ore, but rather scattered far apart.
After digging for ages, I only found a few. The effort was far less than the reward; it was a huge loss to keep digging.
"Special energy?"
Xu Long scanned the area with his mental power, and his brows furrowed.
Just as the Mount Mang Corpse King said, there was indeed another energy blocking him.
"Master, the energy map has been successfully analyzed. Tell those people to stay away, and watch me blast this mine open with one shot."
The Red Queen's voice came through the earpiece, and the surrounding S-rank characters immediately turned their attention to her.
At this level of cultivation, it goes beyond mere sharp hearing and keen eyesight.
Within a certain range, no movement, however slight, can escape their perception.
Although the sound from Xu Long's earphones was very low, it was still detected.
"This is..."
The Fire King's eyes flickered; he had already guessed what was going on.
Gene Strengthening Agent are something that are very difficult to develop without a research team specializing in biology and genetic engineering.
However, if Xu Long had a super artificial intelligence or Kami- like scientist, it would make sense.
Upon hearing that faint sound, the Fire King made a judgment.
Xu Long should possess a top-tier artificial intelligence.
And that's pretty much the case; the Red Queen has evolved many times and is nearing her limit.
Whether it's the Resident Evil series, the Avengers series, or even the artificial intelligence in the Halo series, none of them are a match for her.
Going a step further, the Red Queen can completely break free from the constraints of the program, transforming from the ethereal into the real and thus giving birth to a soul.
"Listen to him, back off immediately!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Fire King led a few people and began running away from the Flint Crystal mine.
boom!
A terrifying beam of light, hundreds of meters in diameter, descended from the sky and struck the Flint Crystal ore with tremendous force.
The mountains shook and the earth trembled.
Gravel flew everywhere, and dust filled the air, enveloping an area of several thousand meters in it.
When the terrifying energy fluctuations dissipated, the strange energy that had enveloped the Flint Crystal ore was dispersed, revealing a huge void before everyone.
"This..."
This shot dispersed the strange energy surrounding the Flint Crystal ore and shattered the dreams of many S-rank powerhouses.
They suddenly discovered that the power of technology was not so weak.
One beam of light wouldn't kill them, but what about a hundred? A thousand?
An attack from the sky leaves nowhere to hide!
The pride that once belonged to S-rank powerhouse vanished, leaving only a chilling coldness in his heart.
They suddenly felt like they were being left behind by the world!
First, S-rank powerhouse who was almost invincible was killed in one move, and then two S-rank from Northern Russia disappeared without a trace.
Ultimately, this horrific attack occurred.
Western Europe and Xila were merely exhausted, while China and the Rice Country were horrified.
Such a terrifying attack rendered aircraft carriers and tanks utterly insignificant.
The Gulf War woke the world up; this time, it literally killed the entire world.
"When Wang Situ says he wants 70%, he's probably just being polite."
The Fire King murmured to himself, glancing at the other three, all of whom wore solemn expressions.
Everyone had their own thoughts, but none of them showed much of it.
We need to work on Flint Crystal now; we'll talk about the rest later.
Although the energy surrounding the Flint Crystal ore has dissipated, there is still a lot inside.
Xu Long tried, but found that his telekinetic power still couldn't penetrate it.
We don't know what dangers lie inside; going in rashly could result in injury.
After all, the Great Wilderness Main World has begun to change gradually and is no longer the simple world it once was.
