Cutting-edge Technology: I Provide the Brains, the State Provides Everything

It was about the ultimate profound meaning of ”cause” and ”effect”!

In the real world, Lu Chen’s body stiffened abruptly, his face instantly turning ashen. Beads of sweat as large as beans rolled down his forehead. But he gritted his teeth, not making a sound, only that his dark eyes were undergoing some heart-stopping change.

His originally stark black and white pupils now resembled two bottomless vortices, with countless tiny, complex golden runes rapidly spinning, arranging, and combining within them, exuding a majesty that no one dared to look directly at!

”Lu Chen? What’s wrong with you?!”

Su Qingying immediately noticed his abnormality and anxiously tried to support him.

”Don’t move!”

Lu Chen suddenly growled, his voice hoarse as if abraded by sandpaper. He slowly raised his hand, signaling Su Qingying to retreat, then slowly, little by little, straightened his back.

”Hoo—”

He exhaled a turbid breath, as if expelling the dust of an entire old era.

When he opened his eyes again, the golden runes had receded, replaced by a gaze of indifference and profundity that saw through all things in the world and comprehended the creation and destruction of the universe.

That gaze no longer belonged to a human.

It was the gaze of a god.

[Refresh complete.]

[This week’s black technology: A general-purpose weapon based on ’High-Dimensional Interference’ and ’Probability Collapse’]

[Macro Causality Tampering Weapon (Theoretical Prototype)!]

”Causality…”

Lu Chen murmured these three words, a crazy, intoxicated arc slowly forming at the corner of his mouth.

He had finally waited for it.

This was the true face of the system, the final gift left to humanity by that high-dimensional civilization!

No longer simple energy accumulation, no longer crude physical destruction.

But direct editing of the real world from the logical and causal levels!

This was no longer a weapon.

This was…

The authority to ”speak and the law follows”!

”heavenly craft.”

Lu Chen’s voice was frighteningly calm, like the quiet before a storm.

[Present, Master.]

heavenly craft’s figure instantly appeared, but this time, even this super AI with infinite computing power, when facing Lu Chen, instinctively lowered her head, displaying a submission and tremor originating from the depths of her core code.

She felt it.

Her master had changed.

He had become stronger, more mysterious, and more dangerous.

”Clear out half of the main control core of the expedition.”

Lu Chen said lightly, as if speaking of a trivial matter.

”I need to upload something new.”

”Also, inform the entire army that the planned offensive has been canceled.”

”C-canceled?!”

“War Wolf” and Academician Qin Shan, who were standing nearby, nearly had their eyes pop out when they heard this!

”Commander Lu! We’re right at their doorstep, and you’re canceling the attack now? Does that mean our journey was for nothing? What about the morale of the soldiers? What about the safety of Earth?”

“War Wolf” was sweating profusely with anxiety. If not for his absolute trust in Lu Chen, he would have probably started cursing.

”Who said I’m not fighting?”

Lu Chen turned and glanced at him.

That single glance made “War Wolf”, a hardened veteran who had crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, feel his entire body’s blood freeze!

What kind of gaze was that!

There was no killing intent, no anger, only a detached indifference, high above, looking down on ants. As if in his eyes, those terrifying Star Devourers, or even the entire Milky Way Galaxy, were nothing more than data that could be manipulated at will!

”What I mean is, the original ’frontal assault’ plan was too foolish, too many casualties, too inefficient.”

Lu Chen withdrew his gaze and looked back at the massive wormhole outside the window.

”Since we have a ’hammer’ in our hands, why bite with our teeth?”

He reached out and gently grasped at the void.

With his movement, the tactical map on the holographic screen instantly changed. All the dense attack routes disappeared, replaced by a shockingly simple red arrow.

Pointing directly at the Galactic Center black hole!

”What we need to do is very simple.”

Lu Chen’s voice echoed eerily, with a chilling smile.

”No need to bother with those countless bugs, and no need to dismantle those damned fortresses.”

”We just need to…”

”Rewrite the rules of this game.”

”heavenly craft, prepare to receive the data package.”

”Codename—”

”’Pen of God’!

”

[Yes, Master!]
