The piercing alarm sound and the flashing red light emitted by the bracelet usually signify one word—danger!

But Su Qiangwei remained calm, without a hint of nervousness.

She even calmly took out a Qilin Meat·Type One, tore open the packaging, and took a relaxed bite.

With Ma Ran around, what was there to worry about?

Su Qiangwei didn’t believe it, could the underling who was defeated by the Extremely Effective Monarch still outsmart Ma Ran?

Since Ma Ran had already said he was in charge of this aspect, there would definitely be no mistakes.

Li Xing and Wu Di were still kneeling on the ground, retching wildly, their expressions extremely pained, with no energy to pay attention to the alarms.

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

“A prank?”

Su Qiangwei squinted at the bracelet on her wrist, tapping it carelessly: “It’s been sounding, but I haven’t seen any changes…”

Ma Ran smiled slightly, holding up the Inner Qi Spiritual Soldier that had materialized at some unknown time, and said, “The principle is the same as suppressing the interstellar jump pod signal before.”

“Simulating Sword Soul Fluctuation can artificially create a field equivalent to an enhanced Class A Radiation.”

At this point, he slightly moved his wrist.

The crimson straight-blade Tang Blade left four afterimages in the air.

Swoosh!

Only the sound of breaking air was heard.

The previously sharp alarm sound instantly went silent.

The four bracelets were precisely cut and fell to the ground.

Su Qiangwei stared blankly at the bracelets on the ground, whispering, “Almost cut my fingernail, and there were supplies inside!”

Ma Ran responded calmly, “I know the limits.”

As he spoke, he gently twisted his wrist, and the Tang Blade danced, sending the four violently sliced bracelets flying forward.

Only to hear a “boom” explosion.

Flames burst forth!

The gigantic cube representing the Consciousness Transmission Factory was blown open, creating an irregular hole.

The shockwave surged, causing Wu Di and Li Xing, who were half-kneeling on the ground, to roll over twice.

Su Qiangwei reacted swiftly, summoning a Water Quality Thunder Spear with a thought, inserting it into the ground, and barely maintaining her footing against the gale.

Ma Ran and the Demon stood firmly in place, as if merely breeze brushed through, showing no reaction.

The Longevity Star People inside instinctively turned their heads to look this way.

The power of the four bracelet explosions made Su Qiangwei feel a mix of fear and fury: “I must… I must butcher that guy!”

The Extremely Effective Monarch truly has a heart of stone!

What happened to mutual utilization and temporary ally?

The result…

This is it?

Originally, Su Qiangwei thought, at most these bracelets would have the power to sever an arm.

The fact proved that she was still too naive, too simple-minded.

People are deceitful; she must be more vigilant in the future!

Without Ma Ran by her side, this thing could have blown everyone to pieces on the spot!

“Butcher that guy?”

“I will.”

Ma Ran nodded, displaying extreme composure.

He quietly pulled out the last intact bracelet, focusing his gaze on Li Xing and Wu Di, who had regained some stamina.

Li Xing finished retching, immediately hugging his Perpetual Motion Camera, turning it over and over, discovering it was undamaged, and sighed in relief.

Wu Di, seeing his junior’s reaction, felt compelled to hold onto something, fearing being outdone, so he hurriedly embraced his sword tightly, drawing it from the evidently ill-fitting scabbard.

Crack!

The scabbard shattered, and a faint orange glow emanated from the sword blade.

Wu Di’s sword, originally a standard sword from the Grass Hut Academy, had now undergone a subtle change in form.

Half of it resembled a Tang Blade, the other half a sword, oddly shaped, seemingly undergoing some sort of transformation.

This was an indication of progression in the Seven Vortex Swordsmanship.

Truly adept Sword Dao practitioners, like the disciples of Sword Master Lin Qiubai, had Lifebound Spirit Swords fully transformed, bound with their soul, ready to materialize and strike with a thought upon encountering an enemy.

Clearly, Wu Di’s Swordsmanship Realm was significantly lacking compared to Zhu Hanyi and Wan Haihao.

“Conducting short-range space transmission without special protective clothing is akin to a bracelet explosion.”

Ma Ran explained, “It’s all the Extremely Effective Monarch’s sadistic pleasure.”

“Remember that feeling just now.”

“That experience will be greatly beneficial to your future cultivation.”

“Unfortunately…”

“The wormhole constructed between the teleportation devices is incredibly stable, with the protective layer being too strong, otherwise, you would have gained even more benefits.”

Wu Di and Li Xing nodded in agreement, indicating they remembered.

After all, not everyone is privileged enough to traverse wormholes physically.

Under normal circumstances, those “qualified” are people like the Sword Master and the Demon.

“Hey, hey? What about me!”

Su Qiangwei ran up to Ma Ran, tiptoeing: “Why did neither you, I, nor the Demon react at all?”

Ma Ran squinted at her: “The Demon and I have strong ‘constitution,’ as for you…”

“Don’t you know how much of your acquired Superpower from the Myriad Transformations pertains to space attributes?”

The young girl stuck out her tongue.

Before she could say anything, the last remaining bracelet in Ma Ran’s hand suddenly projected a beam of light.

The light quickly coalesced into a humanoid figure.

The figure turned, revealing the face of the Extremely Effective Monarch: “I knew it.”

“This little test was truly nothing for you!”

“No…”

“Your performance exceeded my expectations, even better than I imagined!”

“In this situation, you can still preserve one…”

The Extremely Effective Monarch was previously annoyed by the demon’s headshot, but now he wasn’t angry: “So, we have a basis to continue our cooperation.”

“Speaking of which…”

“I’ve been curious from the start.”

“You made seven conditions but didn’t ask for the most crucial card-making technology of the Eternal Civilization.”

“Why?”

Not only the Extremely Effective Monarch, but also Su Qiangwei, Li Xing, and Wu Di found it strange.

The card-making technology is very characteristic of the Eternal Civilization.

It is obviously an advanced technological application involving the spatial domain.

If we could get hold of it, perhaps Earth’s civilization could achieve a leap in technological development!

Even at the very least, it could add another Extraordinary Route!

With China’s large population, what if one or two super card geniuses emerge, or even a Demon-level Summoner that could rival a National Guardian level?

The spread of Extraordinary abilities is best done by China on Earth, second to none!

However…

In terms of high-end combat power, everyone vaguely feels that other countries are gradually catching up.

Some S-level Ability Users hiding among the populace and being deliberately concealed are recently stepping into the limelight one by one.

It is said that in the United States, they are even forming an “Alliance of Gods” around “God,” with Gray at the core, to win over allied nations.

In such a situation, every additional top Extraordinary One in China is of extraordinary significance!

Even Li Xing, a second-term new member of Grass Hut Academy, feels that the pressure on Su Qiangwei and Ma Ran is overwhelming.

He only hates his incompetence, only awakening ordinary Pillar-level superpowers.

Even though many people in the superpower circle praise his “Extreme Cold” as on par with “Blood Flame” from Uncle Song of Fulan Academy, Li Xing gradually understands after attending extraordinary exchange seminars, how vast the gap is between A+ level and National Guardian level (S-level)!

Even those in Australia designated as S- Level like “Yi King” and the “Yin Yang Master” in Japan can make countless A+ Level Extraordinary Ones despair.

Everyone is filled with doubt but unanimously chooses to trust Ma Ran’s judgment, having gradually nurtured the habit of not digging deep into every detail.

There’s no time on the battlefield to explain everything!

Just remember the point Su Qiangwei mentioned before departure, and that is enough…

Ma Ran’s judgment is always trustworthy! If you have doubts, first think seriously about whether the problem lies with you!

This is also why many envy the relationship between the “Prophet” and the “Martial God.”

The two frequently bicker and compete with each other, but on the battlefield, their bond and trust are unquestionable.

Once they share life and death, a profound partnership is formed.

The “Prophet” and the “Martial God” have fought side by side, not just once!

“It’s actually nothing.”

Hearing the question from the Extremely Effective Monarch, Ma Ran replied calmly, “Every experiment participant can use the card factory to create their own exclusive cards.”

“But after some comparative analysis of certain confessions, I suspect…”

“The true core card-making technology is controlled by the Mysterious Research Institute.”

“The doomsday forbidden card you promised has already been released from the card, hasn’t it?”

“I don’t believe you truly have the ability to oppose the scholars of the Mysterious Research Institute.”

“Otherwise, you wouldn’t need us, ‘insignificant’ temporary allies.”

Upon hearing these words, the Extremely Effective Monarch nodded slightly, agreeing with Ma Ran’s deduction.

There’s an old saying on Earth: “The trouble of a ruler is trusting others; trust them, then you’re controlled by them.”

It means: if those in power trust others, they are controlled by others.

The Extremely Effective Monarch believes this saying is very true.

Those scholars in the Mysterious Research Institute are selfish individuals who only trust themselves.

He could guarantee that every card produced contains backdoors and hidden tricks!

If the Extremely Effective Monarch hadn’t released all the cards early, by now his effective combat power could have dropped to zero, and he might even become a reinforcement for the opponent.

“Let’s focus on our respective tasks first, and contact each other later.”

As Ma Ran spoke, he unleashed the Sword Spirit, shattering the projection of the Extremely Effective Monarch.

In the distance, within the Consciousness Transmission Factory, many Longevity People gathered, holding standard weapons, discussing something with fervent expressions.

“Kill them!”

“Although I don’t know how these low-level civilization natives came here by chance, but… eliminating them should count as an accomplishment, right?”

“I wonder how many ‘Card Points’ will be rewarded…”

“That Card Point balance, to people like us, apart from maintaining a bare minimum of life, what else is it good for? We can only buy basic plasma guns for self-defense! We completely lack the qualifications to create or purchase cards!”

“By eliminating this group, maybe we can also become ‘Experimenters’!”

“Hahaha! I’ve wanted to join Team Seven for a long time! If I can’t get into Team Seven, Team Nine will do!”

“Slaughter! Conquer! That’s what I desire too, a real life!”

“They seem a bit confused, what an opportunity! I must kill at least one! No one should try to take it from me!”

Even without Su Qiangwei translating, Ma Ran could understand what these people were saying.

With the Academic Demon medal, even though Ma Ran had not deliberately studied the common language of the Longevity Star People, after interacting with many Longevity captives, he naturally grasped the common language of the Eternal Civilization.

Ma Ran’s expression remained indifferent, but in his eyes burned a flame called excitement.

“Follow me!”

He shook the crimson Tang blade in his hand, upon which a Golden Dragon swam, emitting a dragon’s roar, and immediately charged into the enemy ranks.

A flash of blade light!

Two Longevity Star People attempting to intercept Ma Ran with gunfire were beheaded, blood splattering everywhere, dying instantly.

Simple slaughter, used as a warm-up.

Ma Ran did not press on the attack but instead made a slashing motion with his blade, drawing a long straight line at the doorway.

“Give death and pain as a gift…”

“Return it to them!”
