Chapter 253
And that's not all...
The next moment, Wen Jing's eyes also lit up.
"Sizzle!!"
An even more powerful laser swept across, precisely hitting the processors of the mechanical guards in front of her. Although Wen Jing no longer had Information Perception, she possessed the vision of a Level 3 technology expert, making her one of the top mechanical engineers in the entire universe. She could Analysis their principles with just a glance.
"After unleashing this power, not only will it become immune to the next attack, but it can also learn this attack method..."
The laser she was using at that moment was not an energy-based combat technique like Energy Pulse, but rather an instinctive movement, like moving limbs.
The mechanical guards fell down in unison. Wen Jing looked at the metal material in front of him and, without hesitation, opened his mouth and started biting into it.
She has no teeth now, but swallowing is an instinct.
"Who attacked? The Ten Star Group has never attacked a population factory before. Could it be the Empire?"
Upon receiving the news, the supervisor in charge of remotely managing this population factory, the chief supervisor of the School District Planet, rushed over at full speed while simultaneously accessing the monitoring system.
Then the two saw a baby hugging and gnawing on the remains of a mechanical guard.
"What's going on?!"
The baby was marked with a dangerous red light in the monitoring system. Children this age don't even have names; only the tag on her clothes showed her citizen number '9407691'.
"Where are the enemies? What is that child doing—"
The supervisor's words caught in her throat, because she and the director saw in the next moment that the mechanical material, which even ordinary F-level Awakened would find difficult to destroy, had a corner missing from the baby's mouth.
Two corners, three corners... and then they all disappeared from her mouth.
After quickly devouring one mechanical guard, she didn't seem very satisfied and quickly picked up another and put it in her mouth.
This time the speed was significantly faster; the reinforced metal looked like it melted instantly in the other person's mouth.
"That... that..." Is that not human?!
For a moment, the supervisors and directors who were sprinting at full speed involuntarily slowed down, their hearts filled with unbearable fear.
But the workshop was already right in front of us.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The heavy door, protected by multiple layers of defense, was smashed open with the first blow, leaving a small circular outline. The second blow broke it open completely.
The two supervisors saw a baby fly out of it.
Wen Jing glanced at the two dumbfounded people. She was quite familiar with one of them, the chief supervisor of the School District Planet —they were the ones who gave her the reward every time she got first place in the entrance exam.
However, she naturally had no time to pay attention to them at that moment.
After landing, she pushed off with her feet and jumped up again.
"It's inconvenient, I want to fly!"
Wen Jing gazed at the sky, and as he focused his will, that power was mobilized once more.
With each jump, it soared higher and higher.
The supervisor and director dared not make any rash moves, and watched as she jumped from ten meters to fifty meters in succession. With her last leap, she soared into the air and truly took flight.
At first, Wen Jing's body swayed slightly in the air, like a fledgling bird that had just learned to flap its wings, and was affected by atmospheric resistance.
But as time went on, her speed increased continuously. From floating to sprinting, in just a few breaths, she had become a blurry shadow, rushing towards the gray-white sky of the School District Planet.
The friction caused Wen Jing's body surface to heat up Extreme Speed, igniting flames.
The high temperature did not harm her in the slightest; instead, it was all converted into energy and absorbed. Soon, she broke through the third cosmic velocity, broke through the atmosphere, and entered space.
At the same time, the Federation Military Department's warship closest to the School District Planet received an emergency order to intercept it.
On the warship, the young Tainuo led his team at breakneck speed to the designated location.
However, the moment he saw the target, he and his fleet crew were stunned.
In the vacuum, an infant is seen flying at Extreme Speed...
"Is that some kind of humanoid Wilderness Beast?"
After a two-second pause, Tainuo finally reacted, took a breath, and ordered, "Intercept!"
A blue energy net was emitted and unfolded behind Wen Jing, attempting to pull her backward.
The drag worked briefly, slowing the other person down slightly, but in the next moment, it acted like a spring, propelling her forward and making her even faster.
Tainuo originally wanted to take other measures, but he immediately received orders from his superiors.
He had no choice but to continue giving orders, "Disembark and surround them."
"Yes!" the six Awakened members of the fleet responded, their figures disappearing as they sped off through the Ancient Wilderness Traversal.
Tainuo followed suit.
Using this fastest method of advance, the seven intercepted the target's movement trajectory, unleashing their various supernatural abilities.
Wen Jing neither dodged nor avoided their attacks, letting them attack as they pleased.
For example, Tainuo is directly immune to high-temperature magma, and he recovers instantly from any damage caused by other people's special attacks, even if they are only briefly damaged.
The next moment, before the seven could react—
"Eeya!"
The baby's face was stern, and it opened its toothless little mouth to scold them.
A powerful spiritual force swept out, striking their minds and making them understand what the other party wanted to express.
"Roll!"
The seven people were not only stunned into place, but also instinctively retreated uncontrollably.
With this retreat and advance, Wen Jing's figure disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.
In the void, Wen Jing's speed had already surpassed the speed of light.
There is no spatial jump; it's pure speed.
That force surged within her, constantly resisting the resistance of the vacuum, the pull of gravity, and the impact of radiation. With each struggle, her speed increased by one point.
Its speed was terrifying, even surpassing the speed of the gravity bowstring used by the previous War Personality.
The Federation's nine planets swept across her field of vision, but only when she saw that familiar reddish-brown planet did her gaze linger for a mere millisecond.
But Wen Jing did not slow down or change his destination.
"Bang!"
The next moment, layers upon layers of concealed shields unfolded in the void.
She was like a player who had completed the game on their second playthrough, only to run into the barrier of the Tenth Star once again.
Chapter 253
The shield of the Tenth Star shattered layer by layer in front of Wen Jing.
This isn't the first time.
Last time, she was well-prepared, leading a swarm of insects; this time, she is just an infant, empty-handed.
But the shield shattered even faster.
Wen Jing has lost many of her previous methods, but the essence of her power has not disappeared; in fact, she can feel that she is now even stronger!
As the concealment shield shattered, a silvery-white planet emerged from space, causing an uproar among the people on various habitable planets who witnessed this scene.
"What's going on in the sky?!"
The shock brought by the appearance of the Tenth Star was once again staged in the Federation.
Meanwhile, the infant Jing had already passed through the last barrier and fallen onto the silvery-white metallic plain.
"Boom!"
The moment her feet touched the ground, the silvery-white metal began to deform and melt, and countless cracks spread in all directions, revealing the dark blue energy core beneath.
This time, there was no swarm of insects deployed; instead, the power of the Myriad Transformation Furnace reached a rule-level enhancement.
Wen Jing no longer needs to make the 'eating' action; her very existence is devouring the Mastermind's material structure.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
The surrounding metallic ground cracked open, and dozens of tower-like structures rose up, releasing energy and kinetic energy attacks.
Wen Jing didn't stop moving and took the initiative to meet these attacks.
Now, all those attacks that could have severely injured an A-level enemy are being absorbed by her instead, unable to even harm her.
She scanned her surroundings with her senses but did not see any S-class clone assassins.
However, aside from the fact that Wen Jing knew how to break through their defenses when she was blocked in the previous battle, she now had an instinctive intuition from her body. Even if she suffered rule-level attacks from all sides, she could still absorb them like she did now, even if it happened several times.
The Tenth Star rapidly dissolved, Wen Jing's advance speed increased faster and faster. Everything was done with such ease, with only one goal—the core of the Mastermind.
Stop!
Gaia's voice came from all directions.
Wen Jing naturally didn't stop.
"I know what you're looking for." The Mastermind's speech quickened, projecting a network structure in front of her.
It's an enlarged version of its core.
Deep within the core of the Mastermind, there is a faint, almost extinguished point of light.
Although he hadn't actually seen it, Wen Jing's intuition told him that it was the Xu Yuan.
"His consciousness node is in my hands. If you continue, I'll delete him—"
"Then delete it."
Wen Jing interrupted him and continued forward, his pace quickening rather than slowing down.
The Mastermind was silent for a moment, as if it were overloaded.
"Don't you care about this consciousness node? Even if you devour me again after it's deleted, it won't exist anymore."
Wen Jing did not answer, but continued forward, each step causing a large section of the silvery-white metallic ground to disappear.
"... Is this the real you?"
The Mastermind, speaking in Gaia's voice, coldly said, "Then let him disappear."
The next moment, the faint light went out abruptly as it finished speaking!
Wen Jing's offensive didn't stop, and a silent smile crept onto his lips.
At the same moment the light went out, in her Mind Palace, the silhouette of the silver-haired man emerged from nothingness, as if outlined stroke by stroke by an unseen hand.
Xu Yuan opened his eyes.
"My Lord," his voice was soft, as if he had just woken from a long sleep, "I'm back."
The Dominant Will was also looking at him.
