Chapter 795 - 417: Baiting the Trap
After arriving at the Ninja-themed sightseeing town of Weiyuan, Chen Xuantian immediately went to the souvenir shop, bought a ninja outfit, and wrapped his face tightly.
Then he flicked into a group of tourists experiencing the ninja tour, using the Shadow Clone Technique to wander around for half a day. Estimating he had shaken off the Federation’s surveillance, he sneaked into the nearby mountain forest.
He skillfully found a bear cave, beat the bear away, and hid inside to attempt to communicate with the Cangtian Base.
However, Xin Su didn’t answer. According to reason, quantum communication should not be subject to interference or blockage. The higher-ups must have realized that the traitor was too rampant and actively initiated communication silence to protect him.
Nevertheless, Cangtian Base is a legitimate organization tasked with maintaining Earth’s love and peace, not a fly-by-night magic girl group doing whatever they please. Regardless of any emergency situation, there are corresponding procedures and contingency plans.
Thus, Chen Xuantian followed the emergency manual, actively adjusted and changed the quantum communication channel, and sent an encrypted location coordinate request for assistance to the leader of the Cangtian Fifth Team, Weisu, of the heavy-duty drone unit.
Almost instantly, Weisu followed the standard procedure and provided the contact code, confirming the information of the emergency rescue mission. Now Chen Xuantian just had to crouch in the bear cave and wait for the support from the Fifth Team to arrive.
So Chen Xuantian decided to seize this bit of time to complete the unfinished task.
"Swoosh!"
Just like in the dream many times before, Chen Xuantian sat cross-legged, pinching the formula, and performed the magic. He tore from the top of his head, peeling his skin apart. The epidermis cracked open like a nine-petal lotus flower, revealing the human-shaped bones and flesh, and all the Essence Blood gathered and transformed into a blood-colored human figure, stepping out of the bone and flesh lotus platform.
Blood Talisman Scripture: Blood Shadow Divine Movement Technique
Indeed, due to the insufficient Essence Blood of the Dao Body on Earth, it couldn’t be refined into the Blood God’s Son, let alone the Divine Lord Body. The blood shadow would have to suffice for now.
"Whoosh—"
A sinister wind swept the ground, crimson light flashed suddenly, and the Blood Shadow Divinity surged out, transforming into a streak of red haze, like a great bird with outstretched wings, directly cutting through the sky, heading towards the Blood Execution Order mark in the far-off distance, shimmering like a starfire.
Although it only marked from afar during takeoff, the Primordial Spirit injury inflicted by the Earth Sect Leader himself was not something a weak human soul could endure. The agent impersonating the target had actually died on the spot, turning into a vegetable with paralysis and incontinence.
So in a way, the fish indeed took the bait, but fled after eating it.
The Federation kept its composure, one empty mission doesn’t mean every mission will be empty. So they restrained their temper, ready to pull back without closing the airports to look for anyone. But unfortunately, the Federation clearly hadn’t realized the truth Chen Xuantian had recently comprehended, unaware of how dangerous fishing is these days.
The fish may follow the line and come ashore looking for you instead.
So, as Chen Xuantian used his Divine Sense to track the Blood Execution mark, employing Blood Shadow Divine Movement and Escape Skill, he quickly found the bait and the lair of the masterminds behind the scenes, and was momentarily shocked.
With a reverse move, he seemed to have directly touched the Federation’s main base?
It really was the main base. This place was clearly the Federation’s military base in Weiyuan. Given the scale, it was definitely not a temporary setup. It looked like an ordinary island from outside, but the whole facility was top-secret, carved out of the mountain and poured with steel-reinforced concrete, a nuclear war bunker.
Inside the mountain cave, there was an airport, railway, military port, warehouse, and barracks. Right now, a large amount of research facilities had been moved in, establishing numerous research institutes, laboratories, and production lines. There’s no problem at all playing a big escape or any sort of hide-and-seek game here.
The bait, which suddenly got assassinated and turned vegetative without warning, was now urgently brought by Federation agents, placed in an isolation operating room, with a global consultation live broadcast. Surrounded by robotic arms, it was being dissected and disassembled, with cameras focusing on the blood talisman holographic scan carved on the brain trying to unlock the secret of the ’flying sword’.
Chen Xuantian’s true target on this mission was actually here. The guy had already changed into a lab coat, unexpectedly sitting in a conference room, lecturing researchers worldwide via camera. And what was he teaching? Mathematics? What the hell, a university professor defecting here warrants all this fuss...
Chen Xuantian listened in briefly. In short, it was about the topological isomorphism existing between the distribution of non-trivial zeros of the Riemann Hypothesis extended functions and neural network activation patterns, describing the migration of consciousness states with high-level categories, constructing non-Euclidean decision spaces within algorithms, and solving NP-hard topological classification problems using D-Wave quantum processors, achieving infinite memory capacity through the recursive structure based on the Mandelbrot set...
What, you want it even simpler? Well, basically they’re playing with AI stuff. Weird, AI technology was originally the Federation’s strong suit, so why suddenly, overnight, have so many domestic AI Grandmasters emerged? It doesn’t seem like they’re trying to scam investments either...
Fine, so this place wasn’t just for reverse-engineering the flying sword project and Star Guardian. The various enhanced human, biochemical human, cyborg, and intelligent human test subjects encountered before—some Cangtian has, some Cangtian doesn’t, and perhaps other heavens might—all gathered here for various dramatic experiments and modification tests.
