Chapter 60 Capturing the Predator
Chapter 60 Capturing the Predator
In addition to practicing the "Eternal Life Martial Scripture," Cheng Yuan also mastered telekinesis based on his research on the T-virus in the Resident Evil dimension.
The Trisolarans also elevated their life level through research into martial arts and the T-virus, which is a major reason why their civilization's technology was able to achieve several major breakthroughs in ten years.
With stronger memory, faster thinking speed, quicker reaction speed, and greater endurance, it would be a problem if the technological development of civilization didn't accelerate.
This is the proper state of a civilization's normal development: the development of civilization drives individual progress, and individual progress, in turn, promotes the development of civilization.
On the screen, the two Ironblood spaceships began to slow down; the smaller one descended towards Gina Star, while the larger one stopped outside Gina Star.
Cheng Yuan said, "Don't rush to take action. Conduct a survey around the star system to see if there are any other Ironblood ships hiding."
"The smaller spaceship should contain the Predator that came to hunt the Eclipse, while the larger one was probably used to retrieve his remains and weapons after his defeat."
"If the Predator fails in its hunt and is defeated by the Corruptor, the larger spaceship should come down. We can then take action and wipe them out in one fell swoop. If the Predator succeeds in its hunt, we will act when it does."
The three warships replied: "Your Excellency Supreme Ruler, we will obey your orders."
As Cheng Yuan gave the order to the three warships, the small Predator spaceship had already landed on Gina Star. The Predator warriors on board seemed to be very experienced and knew where the Eclipse would reside, so they landed the spaceship on a grassy area not far from the Eclipse.
The spaceship hatch opened, and a fully armed, burly Ironblood man stepped out. He glanced around, confirmed the landing location was correct, and nodded in satisfaction.
Then, like a true hunter searching for prey, he determined the location of the Evil Spirit by the traces left by its activities in the vicinity.
The middle-aged Ironblood did not immediately go looking for it. He looked around and chose to go in another direction. Based on his experience in dealing with the Corrosive Fiend, he knew that fighting it head-on was not a good idea. He was going to set up a trap.
Shortly after, an explosion was heard somewhere in the forest. Immediately afterwards, trees in the forest were knocked down by a brute force, and a strange beast the size of a small mountain rampaged through the forest, rushing towards the source of the explosion.
The valiant Ironblood set up a trap in the forest and created an explosion to attract the Erosion Demon.
With a "bang," the forest floor collapsed, and Shi Sha lost his footing, falling into a trap set by the middle-aged Predator.
Taking advantage of the fact that Shi Sha was temporarily trapped in the trap, the middle-aged Iron Blood grabbed a vine and jumped down from a tree. With one hand holding the vine and the other holding a particle blade, he slashed at Shi Sha's neck.
The particle blades were extremely sharp, and even though the Corrosive Fiend had a thick carapace, it could not withstand them. The Corrosive Fiend's head was severed from its neck.
Despite successfully beheading the Corrosive Fiend, the middle-aged Ironblood felt no excitement.
Because from the neck of the Evil Spirit, tendrils like vines extended, connecting to the head of the Evil Spirit that had fallen into the trap.
This is the origin of the name "Undying Beast" for the Eclipse. It has super vitality and regeneration ability. It can regenerate limbs quickly after they are severed, and even if its head is cut off, it can be reattached to its body.
Of course, this immortality is relative. If one really wants to kill the Corruptor, not to mention the Trisolaran civilization, even the Predator race has many ways to do so.
The burly Ironblood raised his particle blade to try and stop the Corrosive Fiend's head from connecting with its body, but the Corrosive Fiend's tail lashed out, forcing him to deal with the tail first.
This delay allowed the head and body of the Evil Fiend to reconnect, and the iron-blooded creature and the strange beast engaged in a fierce battle in the forest.
This robust, hardened hunter was very experienced and skilled in martial arts, but against the Fiend's super vitality and regenerative abilities, his experience and skills were of little use. In the end, he was defeated and sent flying by a powerful lash from the Fiend's tail.
After getting up from the ground, the middle-aged Ironblood knew that he could no longer hunt successfully, so he began to flee towards the spaceship.
As long as the Ironblood remains, there's no fear of not having a hunt. Losing to the Corrosive Fiend isn't shameful; so many people in the clan also failed to hunt successfully.
Seeing that the burly Iron Blood had been defeated and was running away, Cheng Yuan ordered: "Everyone prepare to attack when he opens the spaceship hatch."
This middle-aged Ironblood is very likely the father of the protagonist Ironblood in the movie, so he should be able to escape back to the spaceship alive if he is not disturbed.
As expected, the middle-aged Ironblood was not caught by the Corrosive Fiend and successfully escaped back to the spaceship. He quickly tapped his arm a few times, the spaceship hatch opened, and he rushed towards the spaceship.
Just as he was about to board the spaceship, an unknown attack struck, and the burly Ironblood's head lolled to the side, collapsing in front of the spaceship's hatch.
At the same time, the large Ironblood spaceship parked outside Gina Star was also attacked. The spaceship's power system shut down. Before the Ironbloods on board could figure out what was happening, several spacecraft flew in and formed a strange cage, imprisoning the spaceship inside.
This cage is a spatial cage; considering that the Predators might possess quantum communication capabilities, this technology was used to block quantum communication.
This is a space technology initially developed from the Qin Dynasty plane. It is also one of the achievements of the Three-Body technological explosion in the past decade. The research is not yet in-depth and the application is also very rudimentary, but it can already be used to block quantum communication.
The Ironblood spaceship in space was successfully captured, and several spacecraft also appeared on Gina.
Three aircraft controlled the unconscious, middle-aged Ironblood, two controlled the spaceship, and three remained on standby.
Just then, the Eclipse, which had been chasing the middle-aged Ironblood, arrived. Seeing that its opponent was being controlled by three inexplicable "flying birds," it didn't care what was happening here; it would destroy anything that dared to steal its prey in front of it.
With a furious roar, the Fiend pounced on the three aircraft that were controlling the middle-aged Ironblood. These were its prey, and it would not allow any other hunters to take them away.
This time it chose the wrong opponent. Three standby aircraft fired three invisible waves at it, and the running body of the Erosion Fiend suddenly stopped and fell heavily to the ground.
The Eclipse tried to get up from the ground, but it couldn't muster any strength, as if every cell in its body was not obeying its commands.
After the Erosion Demon collapsed, three aircraft flew close and projected a special energy net that contained the Erosion Demon within it.
Seeing that all the Predator ships, large and small, had been captured, Cheng Yuan and the assembled governors breathed a sigh of relief; their first operation against the Predator race had been a success.
The next step is to gather intelligence from the Predators on the spaceship and the Predator spaceship, locate the Predator race's home planet and colony, and destroy their civilization.
Cheng Yuandao said, "The mission was completed very well. Everyone on the warship deserves credit; they are all heroes of civilization. To prevent any unforeseen complications, immediately begin research on the Predators and Predator ships on the warship."
Gina is too far from LV-223. Even traveling at faster-than-light speed, the Trisolaran warship took ten years. Even with the current breakthrough in faster-than-light technology, it will still take several years. It would be better to conduct the research on the warship.
