Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Xiang Kun’s Strategy

Who influenced Alice to use this language and this joyful tone?

It definitely wasn’t him.

Right, it must be Little Fatty Girl’s influence.

The data transmission paused, but Xiang Kun didn’t feel worried. The content he had already seen was enough to answer many of his previous questions.

Of course, it also raised many new questions.

According to his trend of reviewing the documents, it was likely that the ones not yet transmitted were Mr. Liang’s records of various “mutants” and his explanatory documents on his research direction and concept.

At present, this information was not urgently needed and couldn’t solve his newly emerged problems.

After reviewing those documents, Xiang Kun has updated his understanding and knowledge of “mutants” or “blood-eating creatures”. Now, he has several questions to consider and solve:

1. He wants to identify the nature of the “ultimate predator”—or “mysterious power”—how it exists, and how it monitors and influences the actions of other creatures;

Until now, before seeing these documents, Xiang Kun had not been aware of any existence that could control his life. However, whether it was Scholar Shen’s description or the different document records from the storage device, they all confirmed the presence of an entity capable of wielding life or death powers over ordinary creatures and “mutants”.

Moreover, according to Mr. Liang’s description, this entity likely uses carbon-based compounds to exert influence. If Xiang Kun intends to confirm this, he could start here.

In a “super sensory state”, he may find some clues by directly analyzing related cognitive information.

Before, decoding insights from this microscopic level was complex and painful, and it would take an innumerable amount of time.

But now, with Alice present in the “super sensory item system”, ready to aid with many other things while being connected with super sensory information, many things will become much simpler, and the feasibility will greatly increase.

Xiang Kun believes that if the “ultimate predator” truly exists, its influence on carbon compounds and other organisms might be similar to his connection with “super-connected objects” or “emotion infused objects”, equally established on the level of super sensory information.

Could it be possible that certain carbon compounds are “super-connected objects” of the “ultimate predator”?

Although the “network” established by the “ultimate predator” would greatly differ from Xiang Kun’s, the predator might not even be aware of the existence of “super sensory information”, simply instinctively controlling and connecting just as Xiang Kun first established “super sensory contact” and performed “emotional infusion”.

So even though Scholar Shen and Mr. Liang’s documents portray the “mysterious power”, or the “ultimate predator”, as the bane and big boss of all creatures, they portray Xiang Kun as a “newbie” in the “field of mutation”. However, he was not much afraid, he even felt a bit of abnormal excitement and… anticipation?

If mutation itself could be likened to a game, with both Xiang Kun and the “ultimate predator” as “players”, then the “ultimate predator” would at best be a “pro gamer”, while Xiang Kun would already be exploring the source code of the game.

Moreover, Xiang Kun even implanted Alice as the “cheat code” and “Trojan horse” in the game. As long as Xiang Kun catches a hint of the “ultimate predator” in the super sensory information dimension, he believes he will quickly find a countermeasure.

2. What is the “ultimate predator’s” goal?

The “ultimate predator” prevents humans from deeply researching “mutants” and fully discovering the secrets of “mutants”, yet it allows “mutants” to research themselves.

Xiang Kun suspects that this “ultimate predator” might have greater control over “mutants”, hence it can let go more, and it likely needs “mutants” to mature before becoming their blood source.

That is because if the “ultimate predator” is also a “blood-eating creature”, then conventionally, there would be a phase limit.

The longer its existence and the higher its degree of mutation, the greater its demand for a blood source.

I just don’t know to what extent it has reached in its phase of blood drinking this time. When will it start the next round of blood drinking, and what are its criteria for blood drinking?

3. Where have Academician Shen and that “Ah Xue” gone? freёnovelkiss.com

After reading those documents, the person who made the deepest impression on Xiang Kun was naturally Scholar Shen Haichong. Even if he had not had actual contact, he could establish a very full cognitive model of this old academician, who had won the trust of the officials and single-handedly supported the “Solo Research Plan”, from that information.

If Academician Shen is still alive, Xiang Kun may choose to make contact on a limited basis, such as establishing contact by transmitting information through the network, and exchange views on “mutant creatures” with him.

But judging from Mr. Liang’s later drastic change in style and aggressive mutation plan, there is a high probability that Academician Shen is no longer alive, and his passing, either related to that “Ah Xue” or the “ultimate predator”, changed Mr. Liang’s cognition and direction of mutation.

If this matter can be clarified, it may be of great help to Xiang Kun’s future contact with Mr. Liang.

He plans to arrange for Alice to look for related information to see if she can find anything.

4, Xiang Kun’s strategy going forward;

From Mr. Liang’s video, it can be seen that he certainly has a considerable degree of vigilence and caution towards other “mutants”. Rash contact may not yield good results.

Considering Mr. Liang’s modus operandi, unless he’s completely armed and his abilities completely restricted, it would be difficult for Mr. Liang to fully cooperate with him. It would be nearly impossible to do research together smoothly and to look for ways to combat the “Ultimate Predator”. Dealing with his “armament” is almost impossible, and he would not agree to it.

The people from the official side are likely to accept him, but currently, since they are cooperating with Mr. Liang, the executive-level will definitely let him establish contact with Mr. Liang, and let him take the lead.

So Xiang Kun does not plan to directly get in touch with Mr. Liang or the official people for now, instead, he plans to first develop himself. Regardless of the hard power of the real economy, the further comprehensive infiltration and control of Alice on the network and electronic devices, and his own “super sensory item system”, the further understanding and influence of super sensory information should all be substantially improved.

When he is powerful enough to easily control the other party, then the issue of trust is entirely up to him.

While thinking about it, his cell phone vibrated. It was a call from Tang Baona.

“Kun, are you awake? Let’s go have breakfast. Zhang Qian just called and invited us to the company,” Tang Baona said.

Xiang Kun noted that it was already past nine o’clock unconsciously. He acknowledged Tang Baona’s request and instructed Alice to continue transferring data once the storage devices had cooled down. Then he dialed Old Xia.

“How much of the document you had earlier did you read?” Xiang Kun asked.

“I read half.” Old Xia replied.

Xiang Kun probably knew how far she had read, and said, “You know why I didn’t let you continue reading, right?”

“Are you afraid that I would meet the same fate as those researchers?” Old Xia replied.

“Well, the actual situation should not be so dangerous, but just to be safe, you better not directly read the documents that Alice obtained. I’ll pick out the safer stuff to tell you,” Xiang Kun said.

While, according to Academician Shen’s research, that “Ultimate Predator”/”Mysterious Power” only goes crazy to the extent of “mutant creatures” being discovered by humans, killing both humans and “mutant creatures” under an “sensitive” state, there shouldn’t be too much problem as long as there’s no direct and deep research into the “mutant creatures”. The direct observation and tracking of Dr. Fang and Mijoe on the “mutated big bird”, and “mutated ants” showed no issues, but to be safe, he still planned to stop Old Xia from accessing related information.

Mr Liang dared to use Dr. Fang, Mijoe and others’ lives to test the dangers but Xiang Kun would never allow Old Xia to be threatened.

However, not conducting direct in-depth research on “mutant creatures” does not mean that other researches cannot be done. For instance, the “Super Sensory Item System”, although based on the abilities of Xiang Kun, a “mutant”, is separated by a layer and appears at a more “virtual” level. Xiang Kun does not believe that the “Ultimate Predator” can reach this layer.
