Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day

Chapter 418: Chapter 363: Imagining the Worst, Deadliest of All

Even though it’s been more than ten days since Lu Li revealed that he’s an ancestral human, the online discussions haven’t faded as quickly as other hot topics usually do.

On the contrary, there are still quite a few people talking about it right now.

Some online novel authors are even using the ancestral human as a prototype to write a lot of superpower-themed novels.

At this moment, in a famous blogger’s fan group chat, some people are discussing the ancestral human incident.

”Hey, why hasn’t there been any news from the great one ever since he revealed his identity?”

”Yeah, it’s been more than ten days and he hasn’t shown up in the public. Where did he go?”

”Did he appear in front of you or something?”

”Shut up!”

A group of people chatted with mischievous smiles, all thinking today’s discussion would be like before, with no new information about the ancestral human.

Just when the chatter was getting lively.

Suddenly, someone posted a link to a tweet, accompanied by the words: ”Folks, latest news, something big has happened!”

”What happened?”

”Is the great one planning to destroy the world?”

”Ha, what could be more shocking than the revelation of the great one’s identity? I don’t think anything can top that; it’s been more than ten days, and I still find it astonishing whenever I think about it.”

A scattered group of people responded, not very interested in the so-called ”big event.”

Who would have thought, the person who posted the link said: ”According to the latest reliable news from overseas, the great one disappeared for more than ten days because he likely went into the cosmos. Additionally, the rumors are flying all over the internet today that the great one returned to Earth and flew back at an incredibly terrifying speed of approximately 0.06 times the speed of light.”

What?

0.06 times the speed of light?

Many people were utterly shocked upon hearing this rumor.

0.06 times the speed of light, what’s that like?

That’s a staggering 18,000 kilometers per second!

No, it’s not meters; it’s kilometers!

Even with the advancement in human technology, none of the top spacecraft can reach such speeds.

No.

Not only can’t they reach it.

They aren’t even close to 18,000 kilometers per second!

As everyone knows, the fastest flying probe used to be the Juno probe.

It set a record of 70 kilometers per second under Jupiter’s strong gravity.

This record was only broken by the Parker probe.

So how fast is the Parker probe?

This probe, which penetrates the corona, reached a terrifying speed of 176.5 kilometers per second!

kilometers per second?

176.5 kilometers per second?

These speeds seem fast enough.

But compared to the ancestral human’s flight at 0.06 times the speed of light mentioned by this netizen, they pale in comparison.

For this reason, many netizens were shocked and quickly clicked the link to see the tweet.

Soon, everyone saw the contents of that tweet.

The gist of the tweet was:

The ancestral human returned to Earth half an hour ago.

He even hovered for a moment above the North American skies a few kilometers up.

According to data released by Old Ugly Aerospace Monitoring, the speed of his return this time did reach 0.06 times the speed of light.

Moreover, the tweet included screenshots of the footage and data released by Old Ugly Aerospace Monitoring.

The decision to release this footage and data by Old Ugly Aerospace was actually made by a group of big shots at Old Ugly.

They were afraid that someone else, like the Jalisco Group or the Morgan Clan, might be blind enough to provoke the ancestral human again and risk getting Earth destroyed. So they wanted to use this method to warn the entire planet against harboring any ill intentions towards the ancestral human.

It’s safe to say that the big shots at Old Ugly were giving a ”benevolent warning.”

Yet this ”benevolent warning” caused a huge stir on the global internet.

For example, on Twitter, the comment section was filled with shock!

”Oh my god!”

”Did the great one’s flying speed really reach 0.06 times the speed of light?”

”Old Ugly Aerospace Monitoring even released footage, so this can’t be fake!”

”Unbelievable! Simply unbelievable, the great one’s flying speed, I can only describe it using a term often used in ’Battle Through the Heavens’ - ’terrifying beyond measure’!”

”What the heck, 18,000 kilometers per second? Is this something humans or human technology can achieve?”

”The great one has long been a god-like existence, and you’re still discussing whether humans or human technology can compare? Can humans or human technology even be mentioned in the same breath?”

”Scary, too scary!”

”If the great one were to hurl a 100-ton object at such a swift speed to the ground, the explosion could potentially flatten the entire surface instantly!”

”So, the real power of the great one isn’t just on the city-destroying level we previously assumed, but terrifyingly enough to wipe out all life on a planet?”

”Could he actually blow up a planet?”

”Maybe not blow up a planet, but judging by his terrifying flying speed, he surely possesses the capability to instantly wipe out all life on Earth’s surface.”

”Terrifying! He’s actually a deity of Earth-destroying caliber!”

A group of netizens exclaimed in awe and disbelief.

Even though everyone knew Old Ugly Aerospace had released the footage and data, making deception unlikely, the data was so outrageous that they really struggled to believe it.

The crowd was shocked for a moment.

Suddenly, someone said, trembling with fear, ”Do you think if someone upsets that lord next, he might really wipe out humankind?”

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire internet fell silent.

No one dared to continue discussing the matter.

In other words, everyone was afraid that continuing to talk about the lord might lead to accidental slip-ups, causing him to lose his mind and annihilate all life on Earth.

It was clear from this that Old Ugly Aerospace’s announcement of Lu Li’s flight speed, combined with previous events, had created a certain impression in the minds of people worldwide.

Yes, the kind who would kill a whole family if displeased.

However, since Lu Li warned the nations of the world last time, saying that whoever provokes him would have their nation destroyed, the idea of killing a family escalated to destroying a nation.

This time, having learned that the Ancestor might have the ability to destroy all life on a planet.

Everyone couldn’t help but speculate.

Thinking that if someone offended the Ancestor.

He might go crazy and wipe out all of humanity on Earth.

Imaginary scenarios are the most fatal, and this situation exemplifies that.

...

Gansu.

Inside the large particle collider base.

Shen Xia looked delightedly at the incredibly handsome young man in front of her.

Qian Jin, along with a group of physicists and hundreds of staff members, curled up on the sidelines with faces full of fear.

No one expected Lu Li to silently pass through layers of protection to appear here.

Especially those few physicists who previously doubted Lu Li’s technology, their faces turned pale with fear, and beads of sweat poured down incessantly.

They were all afraid that Lu Li had heard the previous words and would go ballistic!

This was a terrifying Murderous Demon King who wouldn’t hesitate to kill!

These physicists were doubting the technology just a moment ago,.

And in the next second, they saw the real person standing in front of them.

How could they not be terrified?

What they feared most came true!

Lu Li smiled and looked at those physicists, ”Did you just say my technology was flawed?”

Thud!

A bald physicist with poor psychological endurance was so frightened by what he heard that he fainted and fell to the ground.

The remaining physicists felt their hearts pounding like a drum, yet they were too scared to worry about their colleague fainting, and they rushed to express their stance.

”No! No!”

”Mr. Lu, please don’t misunderstand!”

”We weren’t questioning your technology’s flaws, but rather we lack the knowledge to understand the technology you provided. Please... please don’t overthink it, we really didn’t mean it!”

Seven or eight physicists were on the verge of tears from fear.

Only Shen Xia looked speechlessly at Qian Jin and the others, and said unhappily, ”Mr. Lu isn’t this kind of person, don’t make him out to be so scary.”

Hearing this, Qian Jin and those physicists grew even more fearful.

Didn’t these words imply that they thought of Lu Li as a villain?

Suddenly, fear made their shirts cling to their damp backs!

Seeing the physicists still wanting to explain.

Lu Li didn’t want to waste too much time with them, so he directly pointed a finger at the fainted physicist, releasing a burst of energy.

He took this opportunity to say, ”I am not here to cause trouble for you, and I won’t kill people’s families for no reason, you can rest assured about that.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the bald physicist who had fainted gradually woke up.

Shen Xia, Qian Jin, seven or eight physicists, and hundreds of staff members were amazed at this scene, their mouths involuntarily agape, showing a hint of surprise.

They had long known from rumors how powerful the Ancestor was, but they had never witnessed it with their own eyes.

Now, seeing Lu Li point a finger and the comatose person immediately waking up.

Everyone couldn’t help but marvel internally.

Indeed, the famous reputation is not unwarranted.

The Ancestor truly possessed miraculous supernatural abilities beyond reason!

Perhaps because Lu Li himself stated that he harbored no malice.

Qian Jin and a few physicists grew a bit bolder.

Qian Jin cautiously asked, ”So, is there something important you came here for?”

Everyone looked toward Lu Li.

Lu Li walked casually to the control console, fiddling with it, ”Earlier, Xiaoxia called me and said you couldn’t synthesize or capture ’volcanic ash’ subatomic particles...”

As he spoke, the collider had already been activated.

Qian Jin and the physicists worried that Lu Li might break the large particle collider, but they dared not speak up, only growing increasingly anxious.

Lu Li continued slowly, ”So I came to provide some technical guidance and to tell you that the technology I provided has no flaws, it’s just that you didn’t understand it...”

He paused his speech, turned to Shen Xia, Qian Jin, and those seven or eight physicists, pointing at the screen, ”Look, I’ve got it covered, haven’t I? Later, the collider will be able to collide and produce ’volcanic ash’ subatomic particles. Hmm, this process will last for several hours, but it’s fine, this is just part of the process, during which we can observe those synthesized and captured particles.”

What?

Hundreds of us couldn’t solve it for so long, yet you accomplished it as soon as you came?

Shen Xia and Qian Jin exchanged glances.

The remaining seven or eight physicists also froze suddenly!
