336: Survive in the face of death
As Jiang Chen spoke, everyone in the East Sea City Base's combat command center fell silent.
They understood the pros and cons of the situation perfectly well.
Lin Yao turned to look at Bai Yan and the other Commanders.
From their eyes alone, Lin Yao understood everyone's meaning.
"Alright, in a year, we'll see!" Lin Yao nodded in agreement.
The communication cut off, and Tian Ming raised his head, saying, "What happens a year from now, we'll deal with then.
Right now, I need to collect some interest.
I'm very interested in that Corpse King of yours that can self-replicate."
Jiang Chen quickly understood Tian Ming's meaning and waved his hand at the Corpse King.
The Corpse King expressionlessly walked to Jiang Chen's side and knelt on one knee.
Crack!
Jiang Chen struck down with his palm, and the Corpse King's head instantly split open, its Red Crystal Core directly extracted.
His ruthlessness truly astonished Tian Ming.
Jiang Chen directly tossed the Red Crystal Core over and said, "Which other one have you taken a liking to? I can give them all to you!"
Tian Ming didn't stand on ceremony, taking the Red Crystal Core and saying, "Your Red Crystal Core interests me the most.
Why don't you end yourself and give me your Red Crystal Core?"
Jiang Chen laughed heartily and said, "Good!"
After he finished speaking, he directly struck his own head.
Bang!
Under the immense force, Jiang Chen was instantly shattered into pieces.
The entire hall was filled with a bloody mist, but there was no Red Crystal Core.
After spreading out, the blood mist slowly condensed again.
A moment later, Jiang Chen reappeared before Tian Ming.
Tian Ming could no longer smile at this point.
Although Jiang Chen didn't have the ability to control all things, he, like Tian Ming, possessed an immortal body.
Even if this Corpse Emperor before him was a complete waste, Tian Ming was helpless against him.
Jiang Chen looked at Tian Ming and said, "Sorry, you probably won't be able to get my Red Crystal Core, even if I wanted to, it wouldn't work."
"You actually have an immortal body too?"
Jiang Chen showed a cold smile: "Of course I do.
Otherwise, why would I bother fighting for a year of development time for the corpse race?
What result could come from two immortal beings fighting?"
Tian Ming nodded slightly and said, "I understand.
That's it, I'm leaving.
I will abide by the agreement regarding the war between humans and the corpse race."
Tian Ming no longer spoke unnecessary words.
Since Jiang Chen had an immortal body, there was no need for him to fight to the death with the Corpse Emperor.
Fighting to the death would only waste time.
Everything would just proceed according to the agreement!
"Wait!" Jiang Chen suddenly called out to Tian Ming.
Tian Ming turned his head, looked at Jiang Chen, and asked, "What, do you want to give me a few more Red Crystal Cores?"
"Shen Yuan, the Atlantic Sea Bottom Base, is located beneath the glacier, three thousand meters deep.
It's 83 nautical miles due north from the Port of Lorong in Western Europe." Jiang Chen slowly spoke.
Tian Ming was stunned: "How do you know?"
"Duke Lawrence collaborated with an foreign subordinate of mine in Western Europe to extract energy substances from corpse race serum to develop Superpower Potions.
This person is very cunning.
Four months ago, my psychic contract with that subordinate broke, I'm afraid he has already been harmed by the Duke.
If it weren't for you causing trouble here, I would have personally gone to settle accounts with him."
A hint of a smile appeared on Tian Ming's lips as he said, "Although you're suspected of using me to kill someone, this is the one thing I don't object to.
Thanks for the information, I'll take my leave now!"
As Tian Ming finished speaking, his figure quickly vanished into the air.
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tian Ming leave, and slowly sat down on his throne.
"My Emperor, humans are not worthy of a one-year agreement," a Corpse King said with a grim expression.
"Humans are not worthy, but he is!
Arrange for our kin to thoroughly understand humanity's scientific system.
If you don't want to lose the war and be banished to the polar regions, then prove to me that the corpse race is the future overlord of this planet." Jiang Chen commanded coldly.
Tian Ming arrived at the Port of Lorong in Western Europe just over ten minutes later.
This port had been abandoned for a long time.
Here, ice floes drifted on the sea surface, making it incredibly desolate.
Before the zombie outbreak, the sea surface would not freeze in winter.
However, due to the obstruction of the ring system, solar radiation decreased, and this ice-free port also began to freeze.
Tian Ming stood by the sea, and his first clone began to condense, appearing before him.
"Master!"
Tian Ming nodded slightly and said, "You will transform into a particle state and infiltrate the Lawrence Family's Sea Bottom Base first to scout for me.
Don't alarm anyone."
Tian Ming remained on shore, watching the images transmitted by the first clone.
The Atlantic seabed was dimly lit and completely silent, without a single sound.
The water pressure here was immense, but it had no effect on the first clone.
Through the first clone's perspective, Tian Ming roamed the seabed and soon discovered a large dark shadow beneath the thick ice layer, which was the Lawrence Family's hidden secret base.
For the particle- changeした first clone, entering the base was effortless.
The base's entrance was cleverly hidden behind a massive iceberg, surrounded by dense coral reefs, making it almost impossible to detect without careful observation.
The first clone silently passed through the entrance and entered this mysterious Sea Bottom Base.
The interior of the base was spacious, with all kinds of facilities, clearly designed for long-term living and research.
The rooms on both sides of the passage were tightly shut.
The first clone carefully avoided the patrolling personnel and delved into the core area of the base.
Here, he saw a large number of researchers busily conducting various experiments, their faces filled with focus and tension.
Various high-tech equipment gleamed, and data constantly flickered on the display screens, as if narrating the secrets of this world.
This was a Sea Bottom Fortress built entirely for scientific research.
Tian Ming was somewhat shocked.
The Lawrence Family could actually build such a massive base so deep underwater, which was truly amazing.
At this moment, the images transmitted by the first clone were being analyzed and annotated by the third clone.
An hour later, the entire internal structure of the base was modeled by the third clone.
Soon, a complete 3D model of the base appeared in Tian Ming's mind.
"Master, the security level of this base is very high, and it will be very difficult to infiltrate," the third clone concluded after completing the analysis.
Tian Ming nodded slightly, he had already anticipated this point.
If it weren't for the current computing power of the third clone's intelligent brain, coupled with the first clone scouting ahead.
If he had ventured in alone from the start, he would definitely have been discovered immediately, not only failing to rescue Shen Yuan but very likely being dragged down to perish together with Duke Lawrence.
Tian Ming frowned slightly and said, "Third clone, I'm preparing to infiltrate the base.
I will use my virtualization ability.
Can you help me analyze where to infiltrate without alarming the security system?"
The third clone's voice came: "Master, according to the information from the first clone, the entire base is covered with various detectors and energy detectors.
Your energy level response is much higher than the first clone's, already exceeding the detection threshold.
As soon as you appear, the base will quickly detect an abnormal energy influx.
Therefore, to infiltrate, you will need an opportunity.
I need to help you analyze and create a foolproof infiltration plan."
