Fury still had a smug look on his face, his chin slightly raised like a triumphant Black Panther.
He turned to Tony and Captain America, his voice deliberately calm and full of menace:
"I will make today's events public, exactly as they happened." His single eye swept over Tony's faceplate. "Let the World see that the leader of their revered Arbitrators Alliance used even an Infinity Stone for 'interrogation.' Tsk, tsk, the bottom line of 'justice' is truly flexible."
He even "kindly" added, "Don't worry, the blame will only be directed at Chen Tian. As for you two... at most, you'll be considered 'ineffective in dissuading him.'" The fake smile on his lips made Tony's teeth itch.
Tony was so furious that the joints of his armor were buzzing, and his fists were clenched.
But the next second, he suddenly relaxed, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning back casually against the edge of the broken conference table, scoffing, "Fine, try it. Write your report however you want."
This reaction was wrong! Too calm! Fury's single eye instantly narrowed into a slit.
When had Tony Stark ever taken such a silent loss? Unless... he had absolute confidence! The confidence to ignore all of Fury's political maneuvers!
Chen Tian?! Could it be...?
As if in response to the exclamation in his mind, a hand gently, with a hint of playfulness, patted Fury's shoulder.
Fury's muscles instantly tensed! He sharply turned his head—so fast he almost twisted his neck!
Behind him, Chen Tian stood perfectly fine, a bright, mischievous smile on his face that made one want to punch him.
His right hand was holding a completely unconscious person like a sack of potatoes—Carol Danvers! Captain Marvel, usually radiating brilliance, was now bruised and battered, her golden short hair disheveled and plastered to her sweaty forehead, clearly having been severely "educated."
"Surprise~~" Chen Tian grinned, showing his white teeth, his voice drawn out long, like he was unwrapping a prank gift.
He even deliberately shook the unconscious Carol in his hand.
Fury's eyeballs almost popped out of his single eye socket!
This is impossible!!! His mind went blank. That was Captain Marvel! A Universe-level combatant! How long had it been?! Less than a minute?! Even if she couldn't defeat Chen Tian, she couldn't possibly have failed so quickly!!!
Tony snickered beside him, even whistling, "Nice work, Chen Tian, I knew you wouldn't be taken away so easily by that shiny woman."
He smugly raised his chin at Fury, his meaning crystal clear: Stunned, aren't you, Egghead!
Even the usually serious Captain America couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, tactically coughing once and quickly lowering his head, covering his face with his shield—his shoulders suspiciously shaking.
Fury froze in place, his single eye staring fixedly at Chen Tian and his "trophy."
His meticulously planned "Storm Expulsion" project, his trump card Carol, which he relied on to turn the tables... was just casually held by someone and thrown back like battlefield trash that had just been packed up?
Only the faint hissing of the air purification system repairing the holes and Tony's barely suppressed chuckles remained in the conference room. Fury's dark face was now as colorful as a spilled paint palette—shock, disbelief, and a hint of bewildered despair as his plan utterly collapsed.
His carefully constructed "sure-win" chess game was kicked over by Chen Tian in the most brutal and unreasonable way.
Chen Tian casually tossed Carol onto a relatively intact metal bench nearby, producing a dull thud.
He clapped his hands as if dusting them off, then smiled at Fury, his gaze sharp:
"Alright, Director Fury," he said in a relaxed tone, "now, can we talk calmly? About the 'Compensatory Serum,' about Valentina... and," he paused, his smile deepening, "about those 'safest' little secrets in your head?"
Fury's throat was dry, and he couldn't utter a single word. He looked at Chen Tian, then at Carol on the chair, then at the smirking Tony and the trying-to-be-serious Captain America.
What the hell... is this monster?!
In Fury's single eye, the emotion called "mentally broken" was clearly reflected.
Fury slumped onto the cold chair, feeling as if all the strength had been drained from his body.
He pulled at the corner of his mouth, forcing out a bitter smile that was uglier than crying.
Careless! Damn it, severely careless!
It wasn't that he underestimated Chen Tian; he had long listed this guy on the first page of his Universe-level threat files!
But the intelligence! The damn intelligence was all wrong! Those desperadoes on Planet Earth dared to sell him intelligence because S.H.I.E.L.D. had been operating for many years and still commanded respect.
But other Planets in the Universe? Those cowards!
Fury's head was buzzing. The Skrulls spies he had sent out earlier, the "secret files" he had bought at great expense, now seemed like nothing but a total scam!
Who would dare to sell Chen Tian's true strength to a Planet Earth native? Especially when this Planet Earth native was trying to scheme against Chen Tian himself? That wouldn't be selling intelligence; that would be selling their lives!
Who in the Universe didn't know that Chen Tian, that bane, had even slaughtered the Celestials? Leaving not even a fart sound behind!
In the face of such a record, which intelligence dealer would dare to take Nick Fury's order? Did they think their lives were too long? That arrogant, foolish woman Carol probably didn't have much better intelligence sources than him!
He, Fury, a mortal, thought he was playing a grand game of chess, but his opponent was not a chess player at all; he was a God who flipped the table!
Looking at Chen Tian's smiling face, Fury tried to straighten his back, attempting to maintain the last shred of his authority as a controller. His throat was dry, and he squeezed out a hoarse, sarcastic remark:
"Heh... Infinity Stones... Mind control... The leader of the Arbitrators Alliance, your methods are truly 'above board,' aren't they...?" He tried to save face with one last moral high ground. "Chen Tian, do you think this will..."
"Save it, Nick Fury," Chen Tian interrupted directly, the smile on his face instantly vanishing, his eyes cold. "I don't have time to listen to your moral grandstanding."
Before he finished speaking, the Mind Stone, without warning, reappeared in Chen Tian's palm!
Buzz!
The light instantly flared!
Fury's pupils constricted violently. He wanted to dodge, but his body was like an insect trapped in amber, unable to move even a finger! That warm golden light now felt like a cold probe, piercing fiercely into his brain with an irresistible will!
Motherfucker!!!!!!
Fury felt as if his brain had been stuffed into an out-of-control meat grinder!
Countless fragmented memories—Valentina's secret contact codes, the true sequence map of the Compensatory Serum, the secret treaty clauses he signed with those "unmentionable" forces, his contingency plans against the Arbitrators Alliance... All the secrets deeply buried at the lowest level, which he thought were absolutely safe, were brutally and nakedly dragged out by that yellow light, as if a safe had been forcibly torn open!
Excruciating pain! Indescribable pain! Not just physical, but more like his soul being forcibly torn and read!
Tony watched from the side, grimacing, "Hiss... That's really f***ing brutal! But I like the efficiency!" He gloated as he watched Fury's dark face twist in agony.
Captain America frowned, turning his head away in discomfort, but still whispered, "Chen Tian... restrain yourself, don't damage his brain." Although he was angry at Fury's actions, this direct invasion of the brain still made him instinctively uncomfortable.
Fury's body twitched violently in the chair, cold sweat instantly soaking his black leather jacket.
He no longer had the strength to curse, only suppressed, broken moans of pain from his throat.
His so-called dignity, calculations, and chessboard... were utterly shattered into dust in the face of Chen Tian's absolute power and merciless methods.
Chen Tian was expressionless, the Mind Stone's light steadily focused on Fury's forehead.
Reading information from a mortal's brain (even a super spy like Fury) was no harder for him than flipping through a dictionary. Fury's mental "vault" was like paper in front of him.
"Valentina... safe house coordinates... serum transaction records... interesting, 'Star Program'? Heh, Fury, you're quite good at hiding things." Chen Tian murmured coldly, like a judge reading out a list of a criminal's offenses. With each word, Fury's body trembled more violently.
The situation was decided. All of Fury's trump cards were overturned by Chen Tian in the most unreasonable and direct way.
The golden light in Chen Tian's eyes slowly extinguished, and the Mind Stone vanished without a trace. His brows furrowed; the core intelligence of the "Star Program" deep within Fury's mind made his heart sink.
Sentinel! This old fox Fury's ultimate hidden card was actually this thing!
Ten thousand mud horses instantly galloped through Chen Tian's mind.
This isn't right! Before he transmigrated, the future blueprint of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) had no plans for a character like Sentinel to appear!
Was Kevin Feige, that old fox, playing the "trailer deception" trick again? Or... had the script of this Universe deviated from the "official history" in his memory?
In Fury's memory of the 'Star Program', the plan was to create a super-soldier serum with ten thousand times the effect, and Chen Tian was too familiar with this serum! It was the damn source for creating Sentinel!!
"Damn it!" Chen Tian couldn't help but curse under his breath. A movie version of Sentinel? If it was weakened, it would be manageable. But if it was the comic book version of Sentinel... that would be a bit tricky!
Yes, for Chen Tian, it was just a bit tricky.
However, the only good news was like a lifeline—Fury's memory clearly showed: Sentinel hadn't been created yet! That plan, hidden deep by Fury, was still in the serum manufacturing and live subject screening stages.
The core serum with ten thousand times the effect had only reached a thousand times the effect so far, and the experimental subject for Sentinel hadn't been found yet!
Chen Tian knew that only one person could adapt to this effect! And this person, Chen Tian had looked for before, but there had been no news. It could be said that Robert Reynolds did not exist in this World.
Time! There's still time! Chen Tian's eyes sharpened.
Fury slumped in the chair like a pile of mud, drenched in sweat, his eyes unfocused, only painful gasps remaining.
All his secrets had been forcibly excavated, completely draining him of his vitality.
"Tony!" Chen Tian turned, speaking rapidly, "I'm leaving this to you and Captain America. This old fox," he gestured towards Fury with his chin, "whether you lock him in a dark room, send him to a space prison, or sacrifice him, it's up to you! Whether it's procedural justice or vigilante revenge, do as you please!"
Tony's faceplate retracted, his face still showing a hint of schadenfreude, but his eyes had already become serious: "No problem! I'll make sure he's handled properly!" He flexed his fingers, making clicking sounds, and looked at Fury with considerable ill will.
Captain America frowned and stepped forward. Looking at Fury's miserable state, he finally said in a deep voice, "He will be tried by a joint tribunal and follow legal procedures."
Chen Tian waved his hand: "You decide! I have no opinion!" He only cared about one thing now—Valentina!
This Fury's on-stage executor, the core person in serum manufacturing, and a key link in the "Star Program"! The coordinates of several safe houses marked as "emergency evacuation points" in Fury's mind clearly pointed in the same direction!
"No time to explain!" Chen Tian's voice was as fast as if it had been doubled, "That old bastard's 'Star Program' is a super landmine! I have to go snuff out the fuse! Valentina is the key!"
Before he finished speaking, the space around him had already begun to twist and ripple, as if he was about to disappear on the spot in the next second.
"Hey! Chen Tian!" Tony quickly shouted, "What the… what the hell is the 'Star Program'?! It sounds very wrong! Shouldn't it be the 'Silver Shield Project'?"
Chen Tian's figure had already become blurry, leaving only a fiery remark that slammed into the conference room:
"The 'Silver Shield Project' is just a damn cover! That madman Fury wants to create an Ancestor that he can control! And that guy! He's the damn Injustice Superman with a messed-up brain!"
He glanced one last time at the mud-like Fury and the unconscious Carol on the chair, sneering, "Watch the fort, wait for me to come back… I hope it's still in time!"
Buzz!
The spatial ripples suddenly collapsed inward! Chen Tian's figure instantly vanished from the spot.
The conference room was a mess, with only Captain America's heavy breathing, Tony's furrowed brows, Fury's painful groans, and Carol's unconscious body remaining.
Tony rubbed his temples, looked at Fury, and said with a complex tone: "An Injustice Superman with a messed-up brain? Damn it, if it's really like that, will this rare peaceful World be stirred into muddy waters again because of this bald black man?"
Captain America looked at Fury with a solemn expression, gripping his shield tighter, "Tony… no matter what muddy waters, it sounds like trouble we can't handle."
Tony frowned when he heard Captain America's words, but then he thought of what Chen Tian had given him and smiled. He patted Captain America's shoulder, "Steve, you can't say that. I'm terrifyingly strong now."
Captain America was puzzled and looked at Tony in surprise.
Fury seemed to have heard their conversation, letting out an inexplicable, wheezing sound from his throat like a broken bellows, as if in despair, or perhaps mocking.
His "Star," which had not yet risen, seemed about to fall. And the storm was rapidly heading towards Valentina's hidden lair.
Deep in the Amazon jungle, an ancient pyramid ruin stood silently, covered and entangled by dense green vines.
From the outside, it was merely a relic of Mayan civilization, filled with the heavy and mysterious aura of time.
However, inside, metal walls replaced the ancient stones, and dazzling white lights illuminated a futuristic experimental space, where giant synthesis pipes and various precise instruments hummed, and the air was filled with the cold scent of disinfectant and some chemical reagents.
Valentina's research team and a well-equipped guard squad were busy.
Researchers in white coats nervously recorded data in front of the control panels, while soldiers in black combat suits vigilantly patrolled every corner.
Suddenly!
Boom!!!
The pyramid's thick top was crushed by an irresistible force! Rocks and metal fragments splattered!
A figure, enveloped in sunlight and dust, descended like a cannonball from the sky, landing heavily on the cold floor inside the pyramid. Where his feet landed, the sturdy superalloy floor instantly dented and cracked! The Impact overturned the nearest instrument table!
"Enemy attack!!!"
The sharp alarm was instantly drowned out by roaring gunfire! The well-trained black-clad warriors reacted extremely quickly, their energy rifles and live-ammunition weapons spitting deadly fire almost the instant Chen Tian landed!
Bang bang bang bang! Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
Dense bullets rained down on the figure standing in the dust!
All the bullets fired at Chen Tian, at about a meter from his body, seemed to hit an invisible, insurmountable wall!
Kinetic energy was instantly "frozen," and the bullets clattered to the ground.
Limitless Void Technique!
Chen Tian didn't even glance at the terrified soldiers.
His sharp gaze swept across the chaotic laboratory.
Valentina was not there. His gaze finally settled on a middle-aged bald man in a senior researcher's white coat, who was being escorted by two soldiers towards an emergency exit. This guy was clearly the chief researcher here!
"Valentina isn't here?" Chen Tian muttered to himself, his voice not loud, yet clearly overriding the gunfire and alarms.
He casually raised his right hand, index finger pointing up.
A crimson, destructive energy sphere was born out of thin air at his fingertip, spinning rapidly!
The terrifying repulsive force fluctuation could make those soldiers suffocate even from a distance!
"'Hollow Purple'." Chen Tian softly uttered the word.
Buzz—!
A teeth-grinding hum, as if space itself was being powerfully crushed!
Centered on that crimson point at Chen Tian's fingertip, an invisible, overwhelmingly powerful field of extreme repulsion erupted!
Like the palm of an invisible giant God, it slammed down fiercely!
Puff puff puff puff puff—!!!
Like tomatoes instantly flattened by a giant hydraulic press!
Except for the bald chief researcher locked by Chen Tian's spiritual power, the entire pyramid laboratory—all the soldiers in black combat suits, all the screaming, fleeing white-coated researchers, those humming precision instruments, and even the thick metal walls—were crushed into a thin layer of… meaty paste, mixed with flesh, metal fragments, and electronic components, in a fraction of a second by this pure, extreme repulsive force!
Death came so suddenly and completely that many didn't even have time to scream before their forms of existence were completely erased by an incomprehensible force.
The air was filled with a strong, nauseating smell of blood and the acrid smell of metal burning at high temperatures.
The underground Base, which had been full of life and noise moments ago, instantly turned into a silent slaughterhouse, covered in a layer of crimson and metal fragments.
Only the bald chief researcher remained standing, as if petrified.
His face was splattered with warm liquid and shredded flesh from the soldiers who had been instantly flattened next to him, and his crotch was soaked, a strong smell of urine mixing with the scent of blood.
His eyes were wide, almost bulging out, his mouth unconsciously agape, and he could only emit a gurgling, bellows-like gasp from his throat.
Immense fear completely destroyed his sanity; he didn't even have the right to faint—Chen Tian's gaze was fixed on him, forcing him to consciously experience this hellish scene.
Chen Tian was expressionless, stepping on the sticky, slippery "ground" beneath his feet, walking step by step towards the chief researcher, who was slumped on the ground like a lump of mud.
"Name?" Chen Tian's voice was so cold it lacked any human emotion, like a Death knell in the silent space.
"Arthur…" The chief researcher's teeth chattered wildly, uttering the name as if it took all his strength.
"Arthur?" Chen Tian raised an eyebrow. "Very good, Dr. Arthur. Tell me, where did Valentina go? What are the coordinates of the safest safe house she's most likely hiding in now?"
He looked down at the man trembling like a sieve on the ground, his gaze like he was looking at a tool, "Also, where are the core samples and data for the 'Star Program'?"
As soon as Chen Tian finished speaking, the puddle of blood and urine mixed on the ground beneath Dr. Arthur seemed to expand a little more.
He knew that the grim reaper who had fallen from the sky in front of him would truly flatten people into meat pies!
"Mrs. Va… Valentina… she… she didn't come here at all!" Dr. Arthur's teeth chattered wildly, speaking incoherently, "We… we are only responsible for the later stabilization and mass synthesis testing of the serum! She… the serum she asked us to research… the ten thousand times effect… it was already created! But… but we couldn't find a living body that could withstand it! She… she kept saying the test subjects were trash… useless!"
He panted heavily, fear making him unable to hide anything: "She… she went to the Middle East! Deep in the desert! There… there's a secret laboratory there! Deeper underground! She said… she said there was a 'special piece of trash' there, who actually passed the hundred-times serum experiment! She wants to go personally to 'recycle and reuse' it! The coordinates… the coordinates are…"
Dr. Arthur trembled as he recited a string of latitude and longitude numbers and the deep entrance code for the underground facility.
Valentina even kept Fury in the dark!
Chen Tian's eyes narrowed. The safe house coordinates in Fury's memory didn't include this Middle East desert location! This woman was indeed cunning, leaving herself with true backup and hidden cards!
"Very good, Dr. Arthur." Chen Tian finally showed some expression, an extremely cold arc that could barely be called a smile, "Thank you for your cooperation, your information is very valuable."
Upon hearing "thank you," Dr. Arthur's taut nerves, which were about to snap, seemed to loosen slightly. His face, frozen by fear, even managed to squeeze out a distorted, ingratiating smile of relief: "Of… of course! Sir! I'll do anything…"
Before he finished speaking.
Chen Tian simply raised his hand casually.
Snap!
A crisp snap.
The ingratiating smile on Dr. Arthur's face instantly froze, then was replaced by an extreme, incomprehensible terror! He felt the surrounding space being suddenly squeezed by an invisible giant hand!
Pfft!
He couldn't even utter a complete scream.
Dr. Arthur's body, along with the puddle of filth beneath him, was like being precisely hit by an invisible ten-ton hydraulic hammer! His entire person was instantly compressed into a viscous, slippery "pancake" less than an inch thick, mixed with bones, internal organ fragments, and clothing, splatting onto the equally compressed and solid blood-and-metal mixed ground.
Clean and thorough, leaving no trace.
Chen Tian didn't even glance at the "meat paste" again, as if he had merely brushed off a trivial speck of dust. The space around him rippled once more.
Buzz!
His figure instantly vanished from inside this bloody, hellish pyramid.
The next second, he was suspended hundreds of meters in the air above the pyramid ruins, with the dense, boundless Amazon jungle below him. The ancient pyramid, its interior thoroughly desecrated and stained red, looked particularly out of place in the sunlight.
Chen Tian looked down with cold eyes. Valentina's clue pointed to the Middle East; there was no value here anymore, and… leaving traces was too troublesome.
He slowly raised his right fist; there was no dazzling light gathering, only an invisible, heart-pounding sense of spatial distortion swirling around his fist.
Then, he casually threw a punch at the magnificent pyramid below.
The movement was effortless.
Rumble rumble rumble—!!!
Space groaned and shattered under the strain!
Starting from the direction of Chen Tian's punch, the space below, along with the pyramid ruins within it and hundreds of meters of surrounding jungle land, was like a fragile glass mirror into which a giant rock had been thrown!
Dense white cracks instantly covered the view! Space disintegrated piece by piece amidst its wailing!
The giant pyramid, along with the earth beneath it, began to disintegrate in silent and terrifying collapse!
Rocks, metal, the previously flattened flesh and instrument debris… everything, under the forced decomposition of spatial rules, lost its original structure and turned into the most primitive, fine, grayish-white… powder!
There was no dust rising to the sky, no sparks flying.
In just two or three seconds, that colossal structure, symbolizing ancient civilization, along with all the secrets and filth it contained, completely vanished from the surface of the Earth.
Only a massive, smooth-edged circular deep pit remained in place, its bottom covered with a thick layer of fine, lifeless grayish-white powder.
The wind of the Amazon jungle blew, raising a cloud of pale, deathly dust.
Chen Tian hovered in the air, Valentina… Middle East… a hundred-fold serum test subject?
Chen Tian snapped his fingers again, and his figure vanished once more.
Deep in a desert in the Middle East, yellow sand steamed with distorted heat waves under the scorching Sun, and hundreds of meters, or even deeper, underground, a ultimate laboratory secretly controlled by Valentina was operating at its most critical juncture.
Heavy lead-alloy gates isolated the inside from the outside. Valentina, dressed in a white lab coat, stood before a huge one-way observation window, her indifferent gaze piercing the reinforced glass, fixed on the struggling figure in the isolation room.
Under the stark white lights, inside the isolation room, a blond man, once robust but now twisted beyond human recognition, was restrained in a specialized metal harness.
His naked upper body muscles were bulging and contorted, yet they were also severely spasming and deforming. It was as if countless venomous snakes were wildly writhing beneath his skin, at times forming massive tumor-like protrusions, and at other times strangely collapsing, revealing the outline of his bones.
His golden hair was drenched with sweat, clinging to his face, which was contorted in extreme agony. Only broken, guttural gasps could escape his throat.
Most unsettling was the faint glow emanating from certain parts of his body—that was the atoms composing his body undergoing drastic phase shifts! Unstable! Extremely unstable! His flesh and blood seemed on the verge of disintegrating into a chaotic quantum energy mass at any moment.
"Injection dose confirmed, ten thousand-fold effect serum, 100% load," a cold, electronically synthesized voice echoed in the control room.
Valentina sneered. It was a success! At least, a phased success!
This "Bob," whom she had picked up from the trash, and "fed" with countless failed experiments and small doses of serum, this pure consumable, experimental waste in her eyes, had actually withstood the ultimate infusion of the ten thousand-fold serum!
His body was madly struggling on the brink of collapse and reconstruction, but the violent power contained on the verge of collapse, like the core of a star, already made her soul tremble with excitement!
"Good boy, Bob…" Valentina's voice carried a distorted appreciation, as if evaluating a nearly completed work of art, "Hold on! Get through this! You will be the perfect 'Star'! You will be the key to our control of the future!"
The fire of burning ambition blazed in her eyes.
What Arbitrators Alliance? What Chen Tian? What about that old fox, Nick Fury? As long as "Star" was successfully born and firmly in her grasp, all of them would turn to dust!
Fury thought he was playing a big game, unaware that the true ultimate weapon was already in her hands! The World would ultimately be reshaped under her will!
On the control panel, various monitoring readings flickered wildly, yet the alarm lights were eerily silent.
Valentina's entire mind was immersed in the power about to erupt within Bob. Success was within reach! She could almost see herself standing at the pinnacle of World power…
Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—!!!
An extremely piercing, highest-level intrusion alarm suddenly shattered the silence of the control room!
Even before the alarm, a very brief and shrill scream, faintly coming from deep within the passage, reached Valentina's ears!
The sound stopped abruptly, as if cut instantly by scissors!
The ecstasy and fantasy on Valentina's face froze instantly! Replaced by shock and horror!
"What?!!!" She spun around abruptly, rushing to the control panel, her fingers frantically swiping across the touchscreen, trying to retrieve external surveillance and the vital signs of the guards. "Which area?! Who is the enemy?! How many forces?!!!" Her voice was shrill and distorted from extreme shock and sudden fear.
On the screen, the surveillance footage representing the outer guard corridor was filled with static. On the vital signs monitoring module, the green dots representing the guards were extinguishing in large numbers at a suffocating speed!
There were no combat signals, no energy burst readings. Those people… it was as if they had been erased from thin air!
Impossible! This Base's defenses are impenetrable! The entrance coordinates are known only to her and a very small number of loyalists! Fury doesn't even know! Who?! Who could have found it so quickly?!
A chill instantly shot from her spine to the top of her head! A name, like a clap of thunder, resounded in her mind—Chen Tian! Only that monster!
Run! Must run immediately! Take the core data! Abandon this place! As long as the "Star" blueprint is still here…
Valentina instinctively reacted in the most correct way—abandon Bob, abandon the laboratory, survive! She abruptly reached for a hidden emergency escape button beneath the control panel.
However, her hand froze in mid-air.
No! Not just her hand! Her entire body, from her toes to her hair, was firmly confined in place by a force!
It wasn't ropes, it wasn't a force field, but… Gravity! A terrifyingly immense Gravity!
This force held her firmly to the floor, making even moving a finger an unattainable luxury!
She felt like a completely frozen statue, unable to make a single movement.
"Ugh…" A gasping sound of suffocation squeezed out of her throat.
Sweat instantly drenched her back, and her heart pounded so violently it felt like it would burst from her chest! Fear, pure fear of an absolutely irresistible force, instantly drowned out all ambition and calculation.
Just then, an extremely faint sound of footsteps, like the Death knell, came from the direction of the heavy gate, the only entrance to the control room.
That alloy gate, theoretically capable of withstanding a nuclear blast, now silently melted and vanished like butter in high heat, revealing a massive hole with glowing molten metal dripping from its edges.
Through the swirling metal vapor and dust, a figure strolled in as if taking a leisurely walk.
Chen Tian.
Not a speck of dust clung to him, his expression was terrifyingly calm, and his gaze pierced directly through the swirling mist, fixating on Valentina, who was pinned to the ground by gravity, her face etched with extreme terror.
Chen Tian's gaze didn't even linger for a second on the twisted, struggling "Bob" in the isolation room, who was emitting terrifying energy fluctuations. His sight was firmly locked on Valentina.
"Valentina." Chen Tian's voice was not loud, but it clearly cut through the noise of the alarm and Bob's painful roars in the isolation room. "I found you."
He walked in front of the immobilized Valentina and looked up at the contorted Bob in the isolation room.
Sure enough, the reason Bob couldn't be found was because they had hidden him long ago.
"Let's go, this isn't the place for you and that guy in there to die. I don't want this little Planet to explode."
Chen Tian raised his hand, snapped his fingers, and a blue light enveloped Valentina and Bob.
When the dizziness and distortion of spatial displacement vanished, Valentina found that she could see clearly.
Before her eyes were no longer the cold metal walls and harsh lights of the desert Base.
What greeted her eyes was a desolate, utterly despairing landscape. Rust-colored land, covered with massive rifts and craters, stretched out beneath her feet, devoid of vegetation, devoid of Water, only eternal signs of erosion.
The sky was a thick, inky purple, dotted with a few unusually large but dim, dead stars.
In the distance, a twisted, broken ring of stars, like a tattered necklace, hung in the sky. The air was filled with dust and absolute silence.
This was not Blue Star, nor did it resemble any habitable Planet in any known human galaxy.
Chen Tian stood not far in front of her, hovering a few inches above the ground, looking indifferently at this alien wasteland. Behind him, Bob was still confined by a blue energy force field, suspended in mid-air, his body still violently twisting and flickering, emitting inhuman screams of pain, each energy pulse causing subtle ripples in the surrounding space.
Chen Tian did not look at the unfamiliar ground beneath his feet; his gaze fell on Valentina's face, which was filled with horror. He sighed softly, his voice echoing in the absolute silence of the environment:
"Why… do you people always have to cause trouble?"
There was no warmth in that sigh, only a sense of weariness and… judgment.
Fear instantly seized Valentina's entire mind. She wanted to scream, to question, to beg, to bring up any possible leverage—
However, Chen Tian's right index finger simply, very casually… hooked towards her direction.
Buzz!
A massive repulsive force, like an invisible cosmic hammer, pressed down on Valentina from above without warning! Her mind didn't even have time to transmit the last signal of fear.
Puff!
Like a balloon inflated to its limit being pricked by a needle.
Valentina's body, along with her white lab coat, along with her meticulously maintained hair, her terrified pupils, all her carefully calculated ambitions… in one-billionth of a second, were completely and cleanly obliterated by this repulsive force!
Only a bloody, mangled mess remained in place.
Chen Tian's gaze turned to the "Bob" hovering nearby, twisted and bloated by the ten thousand-fold serum, on the verge of complete loss of control. This pathetic test subject, treated as a tool, was now a walking, highly unstable bomb.
There was no pity or hesitation in Chen Tian's eyes. His figure vanished again.
When he reappeared, he was in the outer space of this Planet. He slightly turned his body, pulling his right arm back in a charging stance.
Boom!
Blue flames and pure White light instantly intertwined and condensed on Chen Tian's drawn-back right fist!
The next instant.
The fist swung out!
Target—the nameless, desolate Planet beneath his feet, which bore dust and an end!
Silent collapse!
Where the fist struck, space silently cracked open with spiderweb-like black fissures extending for hundreds of millions of miles!
Wherever the fissures passed, whether it was the rust-colored ground, the towering craters, the shattered fragments of the star ring, or the Planet's core… all the matter composing them, from the most basic particle level, was forcibly vibrated apart and pulverized!
There was no explosion, no sky-high flames.
Only a deathly expansion, shattering… and annihilation.
The entire Planet, under the force of Chen Tian's punch, was like a sand sculpture weathered for billions of years thrown into a violent particle storm.
In just a few breaths.
Chen Tian hovered in the void, looking at the dust before him, his eyes filled with a hint of incredulity.
"Such an interesting soul can bring me more of what I want, little Chen Tian, you destroyed one of my toys, but you can't destroy this one~"
