As a Super Soldier of the ZG faction, Su Chen was quite intrigued by Li Shaolong. He would often inquire about the ZG faction, curious to see if the ZG in the Red Alert world was the same as in his own.
Regrettably, the knowledge residing in Li Shaolong's mind was limited to the technical aspects of the ZG faction, devoid of related memories.
Li Shaolong's presence was precisely because the leader of this Adventure Group astonishingly possessed a Special Technique!
This piqued Li Shaolong's interest, prompting him to spend some time teleporting here before relentlessly defeating the Adventure Group leader multiple times.
Ultimately, Li Shaolong rendered his verdict, "Your mastery is superficial; you need to start over from the basics."
This critique profoundly demoralized the Adventure Group leader, who broke into tears on the spot. He had been renowned for his unparalleled Special Technique among his peers, and being thoroughly defeated had stripped away the last vestige of his pride.
While 'Special Technique' sounded prestigious, it essentially referred to some unique forms of exerting force.
For instance, an ordinary person might be able to utilize 80% of their power, but those with a Special Technique could exert more than 100% of their power. That was the so-called Special Technique.
The Special Technique wasn't as mystical as it seemed. Through extensive research by many scientists, the secrets of the Special Technique were unraveled. They devised a more scientific method for people to learn the Special Technique, turning it into a much-coveted skill among countless Transcendents.
No matter where, only a few could learn martial arts, and such individuals were often formidable within their ranks.
The Adventure Group leader had never imagined encountering someone so formidable, someone who could overpower him repeatedly with even less power. He was a freak of nature!
"Where did you acquire your Special Technique?" Li Shaolong inquired.
Rubbing his eyes and sniffling, the Adventure Group leader responded, "It's sanctioned by the Empire, of course. Unauthorized practice of the Special Technique without official certification is a death sentence."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
A sudden thought struck him, and he eyed Li Shaolong suspiciously, "Given your prowess, you're not a nobody, but why haven't I seen your name on the official list?"
The memory of a Small Galaxy-level Powerhouse was formidable. As long as they were willing to expend brain cells recalling, they could remember various lists they had come across.
Even if the lists were lengthy, the Adventure Group leader could assert with confidence that they didn't include Li Shaolong.
"Let Young Dragon take charge of the infiltration into the Feathered Warbler Empire and deploy several spies there."
During this period, not all spies had managed to ascend the ranks. Some still lingered at the bottom, unable to seize the right opportunities. Persisting in this manner promised limited progress; they might fare better elsewhere. Su Chen disliked putting all his eggs in one basket.
Following the orders, Li Shaolong began the extraction of resources from the primitive planet and instructed the engineers to repair the communication systems aboard the warship.
Within days, the communication systems were restored, reestablishing contact with Borderlink Star.
Before venturing into the Barren Starfield, their last stop had been a so-called life-bearing planet. However, it was not quite accurate. The planet was originally lifeless, transformed into a barely habitable place for humans by adventurous groups at a considerable cost. It had long since become the current Borderlink Star.
At a communication station specifically established on Borderlink Star, the equipment, sophisticated enough to receive various signals within a ten-thousand-light-year radius, was considered a luxury. Even within the Feathered Warbler Empire, such devices were rare.
Primarily designed for the Barren Starfield, the actual size of which remained unknown, a span of ten thousand light years might not suffice.
Suddenly, the station received a unique encrypted signal, employing an encryption method exclusive to them, indicating the sender was either one of their own or an Adventure Group on a mission.
"Should we decode this signal?" an employee asked the station chief.
Recognizing the emblem, the chief exclaimed, "Isn't this the one used by the Old Master's Adventure Group? Weren't they on a mission to find a primitive planet? Could it be!" He urgently shouted, "Decode it at the fastest speed possible!"
The prospect of a primitive planet even excited the seasoned station chief.
If true, this discovery promised considerable benefits not only for the Old Master's Adventure Group but also for him, given that it was his station's group that had found the planet.
The decoding completed swiftly, revealing a straightforward message: "We've discovered a primitive planet. Activate the guidance device to lead us back and record the star coordinates."
Without hesitation, the chief ordered the activation of the guidance device.
This so-called guidance device functioned similarly to a lighthouse in the Universe, visible from afar, allowing warships to find it and follow its signal back to Borderlink Star. (To be continued)
