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

”Establish the ’Superpower Academy,’ and bring all those promising talents who have awakened powerful abilities into it!”

”Tell the public this is not a miracle, this is science! This is a gift from our leader to all humanity!”

High-Dimensional Space, the spaceship name bridge.

Lu Chen and the others were watching the real-time footage transmitted back by heavenly craft with great interest.

The screen showed the joyous, ”demons dancing wildly” scene on Earth.

”My heavens, Brother Chen, did you poke a Superman nest?”

Wang Peng (Fatty) was drooling while watching, his small eyes filled with glittering ”¥” symbols.

”What a huge market this is! Flying licenses, Ability Insurance, customized Magical Items... Oh my god, I feel like all the money in the universe is waving at me!”

”Ambition.”

Ye Qingcang glanced at him disdainfully, then started rubbing his hands and snickering foolishly.

”If we bring those hundreds of millions of newly awakened Ability Users into the military... good heavens, I could form a ’Divine Immortal Legion’! Why would we need a Star Destroyer Cannon then? A single person’s spit could drown the enemy!”

Lu Chen smiled, saying nothing.

What he gave was not just power.

It was also hope, and a goal.

A way for everyone to understand that ”Gods” are not unattainable.

As long as they followed him, anyone could become a Dragon!

Just then.

Those few Crystal Spaceships radiating hostility finally approached.

They stopped not far from the spaceship name, adopting an arrogant encirclement formation.

Immediately after.

A cold, arrogant thought, full of condescension, penetrated the spaceship name’s shields and rang out in everyone’s minds:

[Warning, ”Ascendants” from a Low-Dimensional Universe.]

[You have illegally invaded the boundary of the ”Asgard” Divine Realm.]

[Immediately disarm, cease resistance, and accept the judgment of the ”Purification Council.”]

[Repeat, this is not a drill. You have ten Standard Energy Cycles to surrender, otherwise—]

[Purification, commence.]

The voice was like a god announcing a verdict, devoid of any emotion.

Inside the bridge, the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

Su Qingying walked up to Lu Chen, her expression serious: ”The opponent’s energy level is very high—each ship is equivalent to our flagship. And they seem to possess a ’Purification’ rule that we don’t understand.”

”Commander Lu, give the order!”

Ye Qingcang’s fists cracked audibly. ”Who cares about their damn Council, let’s blast them first!”

Lu Chen waved his hand, signaling him to calm down.

He walked to the viewport, looking up at the Crystal Spaceships that resembled works of art. His eyes held no anger, but rather a hint of pity?

Su Qingying was stunned: ”Lu Chen, how should we reply?”

Lu Chen turned his head, looked at his wife, and smiled.

The smile was bright and confident, yet carried a wicked aura as if he intended to poke a hole in the sky.

”Reply?”

”Why should we reply to a group of raw materials that are about to turn into Cosmic Dust?”

He stopped smiling, his expression turning cold, and his gaze shifted to Ye Qingcang, who was already itching for a fight.

”Commander Ye.”

”Your subordinate is present!”

The corner of Lu Chen’s mouth curled into a chilling arc, and he softly uttered two words:

”Lunch time.”
