MC Bookstore Chapter 1530 Years
Chapter 1530 Years
Chen Jun swiftly felled the first Titan, the entire process as fast as lightning, from the initial attack and dodge to the fatal blow, all within the blink of an eye. However, this did not intimidate the remaining six Titans; instead, it was like pouring cold water into boiling oil, instantly igniting their programmed, berserk aggression.
"Roar--!!"
"Ow-!!"
The remaining six giants had bloodshot eyes and roared even more deafeningly, filled with a destructive desire.
They abandoned all forms of tactical coordination, relying on the terrifying brute force and decent burst speed granted by their modifications, like six mad rhinos, swinging their arms, which were thicker than a normal person's waist, and raising fists strong enough to smash tank armor, frantically smashing, sweeping, and grabbing at Chen Jun's location from different angles!
The wind howled with their punches, the air was compressed into muffled explosions, and the floor of the hall trembled slightly with their heavy footsteps.
The attack was like a storm, almost completely blocking any conventional way to dodge.
However, Chen Jun's figure swayed and moved like a ghost in this death storm composed of pure power.
His speed was beyond the limits of the naked eye; only blurry afterimages could be seen appearing and disappearing between the gaps between the fists and the giant arms. The giants' attacks were powerful and heavy, each blow capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, but if they missed their target, they were merely wasting energy in vain, bombarding the air, the ground, or their companions with terrifying roars.
“Their single-attribute strength and defense may be seven or eight times that of ordinary people, or even higher.” Chen Jun calmly assessed the situation, “But my enhancement is a comprehensive, flawless ‘perfect’ type. Strength, speed, nerve reaction, body coordination, endurance recovery… every aspect has undergone the most rigorous training by the system, and my overall attributes have long surpassed the cognitive scope of ordinary humans, stabilizing at over 10 attributes.”
"The advantage is in my hands!"
Normally, he wouldn't need to unleash his full power. But now, facing six berserk giants, he held nothing back. He adjusted his body to the optimal state for this kind of high mobility, high evasion, and high-precision strike.
Chen Jun's figure was like a weightless willow catkin, or a fish swimming in deep water, gliding through the gaps in the violent attacks.
His movements were unpredictable, shifting left and right, advancing and retreating, always managing to evade fatal attacks by the slightest margin at the most dangerous moments. This wasn't just due to speed, but also to precise calculations and predictions of the enemy's attack patterns, momentum, and the spatial structure of the hall.
What Chen Jun was most satisfied with was that the hacker's hypnosis, which allowed him to capture brainwaves, enabled him to anticipate the attack routes of these evolved beings.
It's practically a cheat code!
Swish... A flash of cold light!
The military knife in Chen Jun's hand was like the fingertip of death, always precisely pointing at the most vulnerable part of the giants' massive bodies, which was also the core node that supported their movements—the spine, especially the connection between the cervical vertebrae and the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae!
"Hey!"
The blade sliced through the exceptionally tough bluish-gray skin, penetrated deep into the reinforced muscle fascia, precisely located the gaps connecting the bones, and then, relying on Chen Jun's terrifying strength and profound understanding of human anatomy, he either pried, stabbed, or twisted!
"Crack!"
The chilling sounds of bones cracking or tendons snapping could be heard from time to time.
Each flash of the blade was accompanied by a sudden halt to the giant's frenzied movements, the red light in his eyes flickering rapidly and dimming, and then, like a house with its main beam removed, he crashed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
Chen Jun's attack efficiency was terrifyingly high. He
Never engage in a direct confrontation of strength with your opponent, nor do you need to attack too many parts of your body.
“Damn it… these guys are just brute beasts now, crude in their fighting style, lacking intelligence, and incapable of using tools or complex weapons.” He dodged yet another giant’s powerful hammer blow while calmly analyzing the worst-case scenario. “But what if… the technology of the ‘Abyss’ continues to develop, allowing them to regain normal or even superhuman intelligence while retaining or even enhancing their strength? And then add in all sorts of modern firearms, explosives, and even powered exoskeletons?”
That scene sent chills down Chen Jun's spine.
Then they would no longer be clumsy giants, but a group of truly immortal "Termins"! Or "Predators" with top-notch hunting instincts and technological equipment! That would pose a disruptive and unimaginable threat to the existing military system and national security!
"Our ancestors in Yan Kingdom warned us long ago that biotechnology will be a key area in future wars. And the most terrifying form of 'biological warfare' may not be viruses and poison gas..." Chen Jun's mind flashed through those dusty classified files, "'The most fundamental and dangerous challenge is the modification of human beings themselves to create 'super soldiers' that transcend the limits of nature.'"
This is precisely why he is willing to go to any lengths, even cross borders, to eradicate the "Abyss" organization. They must be nipped in the bud, before their technology matures, and especially before their intelligence and force are fully integrated!
With this in mind, Chen Jun slowed down his attack and used hypnosis to explore brainwaves, continuing to study these evolved beings in his own way.
……
Deep within the mountain base lies a laboratory filled with various precision instruments, biological culture chambers, and complex data screens.
The "doctor," dressed in a white lab coat, stood behind a huge one-way observation glass, his face ashen, devoid of any of his previous gentle demeanor. His hands were in his pockets, his knuckles slightly white from the force of his grip.
On the other side of the glass was a live surveillance video of the circular hall. In the video, Chen Jun's figure moved like a butterfly flitting among flowers, calmly navigating the attacks of six berserk giants. Every strike was precise and deadly, and two more giants had already crashed to the ground with angry roars of resentment.
The battle is not over yet, but the balance of power has already tipped to the fore without any doubt.
The doctor's brows furrowed tightly, his eyes filled with confusion, surprise, and a hint of barely concealed excitement.
"This isn't right... this is absolutely wrong." The doctor muttered to himself, his voice unusually clear in the quiet laboratory, carrying the obsession and frustration of a mad scientist encountering an inexplicable phenomenon.
"How could his performance be so perfect?" The doctor's gaze was fixed on Chen Jun's every subtle movement. "Strength, speed, reaction, flexibility, balance, endurance... and that almost predictive combat instinct and terrifyingly precise weakness strikes. This is simply not the level that a human who has 'naturally evolved' or 'conventionally enhanced' could reach!"
He shook his head violently, as if trying to shake off some absurd idea.
"According to our research, and all known theories of biomodification, infinitely strengthening the physical body will inevitably lead to overload or damage to the nervous system, especially the higher nerve centers responsible for complex thinking and fine control."
They will either become muscular, simple-minded fighting machines, or, while gaining power, lose parts of their humanity, become extremely emotionally unstable, and suffer intellectual impairment.
The doctor spoke faster and faster, as if he were debating with an invisible opponent.
"To have both—possessing a superhuman physique while maintaining or even enhancing perfect intelligence and emotional control—is an almost impossible paradox within the current framework of Earth's technology! Unless... we can replace or enhance human brain function with some kind of 'external intelligence' or 'computer assistance' that transcends the biological brain. But we in the 'Abyss' have been searching for this technological hurdle for thousands of years, and with the help of those fragmented 'extraterrestrial relics,' we've only scratched the surface!"
His gaze returned to Chen Jun, who appeared like a god of war on the surveillance screen, and his expression became extremely complex.
The Abyss organization's obsession with finding, researching, and even worshipping so-called "alien technology" stems from a core drive to acquire the ultimate technology that could break the curse of the incompatibility between "physical" and "intellectual" well-being. They believe that only technology from a higher civilization can achieve truly perfect and comprehensive "human evolution."
However, as the millennia have passed, generations of researchers of the "Abyss" have followed one after another, analyzing those mysterious "extraterrestrial relics" and conducting countless forbidden human experiments. Although they have achieved some amazing results, they have never been able to break through the most critical bottleneck—how to make the body of a "superman" bear the wisdom of a "superman" without collapsing.
Worse still, with the passage of time, especially the dramatic changes in the world order over the past century, the activities of the ancient and secretive organization "The Abyss" have become increasingly difficult to conceal. They have attracted the attention and vigilance of more and more countries, including the United States, which has risen rapidly in the last century and has a voracious thirst for superhuman power and technology. The Doctor knows that different voices have emerged within the organization; some advocate strengthening "cooperation" with certain major powers to obtain resources and protection, while others insist on the traditional covert route.
As one of the "elders" at the highest level of the "Abyss," the Doctor shoulders the heavy responsibility of leading the organization to break through technological bottlenecks and cope with increasingly severe external pressures. At this moment, Chen Jun's appearance and the "perfect" state he displayed were like a blinding beam of light, illuminating the field that the Doctor had studied for countless days and nights but had always been shrouded in mist.
A near-mad thought began to grow and swirl uncontrollably in the doctor's mind:
"This Chen Jun... his body..."
The doctor's eyes sharpened and became fanatical as he stared intently at the figure on the screen.
"The 'perfect coordination' and 'super-intelligent combat mode' he demonstrated..."
"Could it be... that he has come into contact with, or even... integrated with, some kind of truly complete 'extraterrestrial intelligence' or 'evolutionary key' that we have been searching for for thousands of years?"
"His brain... is probably no longer a purely biological brain. It's... the ultimate form of human intelligence, perfectly integrating biological neurons and unknown computing units?"
The idea made the doctor's heart pound, a mixture of intense longing and a furious feeling of being "beaten to the punch."
If so...
So this Chen Jun is not only an enemy of the "Abyss", but also the living treasure they have been dreaming of, the ultimate answer they are walking!
Thinking of this, the doctor trembled with excitement. A thousand years had passed, and this was the alien their organization was looking for?
Chen Jun of Yan Kingdom.
If Chen Jun knew what this guy was thinking, he would definitely yell at him, "You're the alien! Your whole family are aliens!"
