Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1340 - 1306: The Call

Due to the difficulty of reconnaissance resulting in a lack of relevant intelligence, the "Sagali" civilization seems like "watertight" and cannot find a point of attack. Now, finally, a crack has been pried open by force.

No matter how strong the fortress, it is often easiest to break from within. This crack originally did not exist, but as they say, "the bell must be unrung by the one who rang it," the reproduction lock set by "Sagali" through the "Seed Nest" was, in the end, unlocked by another form of the "Seed Nest" — the "Life Tree."

Parasitic Species can no longer control the survival of Enslaved Races. Even if all currently controlled Enslaved Races were to perish, these races would still have the chance to continue through the "Life Tree" and regain reproductive ability crucial to their destiny.

From the start, Chen Fei was betting that to ensure the continuation of their race without restrictions, the Enslaved Races within the "Sagali" civilization camp might go all out, as their current situation couldn't get worse.

After carefully reviewing the information on Enslaved Races, temporarily compiled by Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam," Chen Fei did not hesitate to dial the communication number of Her Royal Highness Princess Lin Ziyu.

Although he could directly contact the intelligence department of the Slan Dynasty through "Adam," it was unrealistic for a mere Blue Star commoner like himself to communicate with such a significant royal institution. He would be cut off or blocked, and even scheduled for capture, which would be the expected outcome.

Only, Chen Fei is on Blue Star, and the Slan Dynasty faces many obstacles in capturing him.

"Xiao Fei? Can you wait for me half an hour?"

Lin Ziyu's voice arrived, quickly followed by a hurried disconnect tone.

Despite noise processing, there were still faint background sounds of others speaking mixed in the environment.

"Uh... okay!"

Chen Fei's voice didn't manage to get through.

It seems Her Royal Highness is quite occupied at the moment. Who knows what she's busy with? Commoners and nobles live in completely different worlds — both metaphorically and geographically. The terms are not just embellishments.

Chen Fei wasn't in a rush, and meanwhile, glanced at the recent progress of the Soul Research Team in Imperial Capital Delan City.

Upon confirming the existence of soul energy, the research team developed an experimental Life-extending Agent and began clinical applications.

An aging noble, nearing natural death from old age, consumed a special potion in his dying moments, miraculously extending his life by another week. Without a second Life-extending Agent, he finally passed away after seven days.

When receiving this clinical trial agent, he was already informed of its expected effects. To this aged noble and his family, being able to borrow seven days from God brought nothing but gratitude, without any reason to complain.

This was merely the first clinical verification result. The same batch of Life-extending Agents was used on other dying patients, generally achieving a stable 6-7 days extension. Although the extended lifespan was short, and could not compare to the original product of the "Sagali" civilization, it proved the research direction and theoretical model correct, showing that the main goal of the "Sagali" in consuming other Intelligent Species civilizations was not merely obtaining biological resources like flesh, but something more significant — the soul.

Finally, everyone understood the truth of Intelligent Species civilization being served on the "Sagali's" table.

These damned Parasitic Species specifically feed on Intelligent Species!

After obtaining initial results, the Soul Research Team did not delve deeper into the Life-extending Agent aspect but instead resumed research on soul energy.

The verified batch of Life-extending Agents was small, costing the lives of a hundred death row inmates. If aiming to commence production and continuously extend lifespan, the death row inmates of the entire Cangqiong Star might not be sufficient.

Necessary sacrifices for technical validation are worthwhile, but mass innocent slaughter, producing items filled with Intelligent Species life, is neither humane nor ethical, equivalent to the vicious nature of the "Sagali" civilization.

Inside the Soul Research Team, a tacit understanding seemed to exist. No one separately informed Chen Fei and the Slan Royal Family, nor were there other voices. Everyone consciously avoided this "Pandora's Box."

However, continuing soul energy research met Chen Fei's expectations. He didn't consider mass-producing Life-extending Agents, believing fate and wealth are decided by heaven, and living too long may not be a good thing. As for those seeking eternal youth, "Heh," it has nothing to do with him. If capable, do it yourself!

No one would get any benefit from Chen Xiao'er.

Chen Fei instructed Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" to bundle and encrypt all technical data concerning the Life-extending Agent and transfer it to his brain, leaving no backups elsewhere, only known to himself.

Upon noticing Chen Fei's operation, Soul Research Team members automatically supplemented related document serial numbers, as though data on Life-extending Agent had never appeared, avoiding unnecessary slaughter due to someone coveting the technology.

Forty minutes swiftly passed, longer than Princess Lin Ziyu's expected time, and Her Royal Highness's call finally returned.

"Sorry, things here are quite chaotic!"

The Princess's voice sounded somewhat exhausted.

"Oh! Then I'll make it short, regarding the Enslaved Race..."

Chen Fei opened directly but was interrupted by the opposite side.

"That's what we're arguing about here!"

"Ah?" Chen Fei was stunned.

Unexpectedly, the Slan Royal Family had disputes over the Enslaved Race initiative, but the reason was unknown.

"Several Enslaved Races consecutively fell out of the 'Wormhole Cloud,' all male, brought a message before self-exploding."

Just for a message, they completed their mission and committed suicide without hesitation. This determination and decisiveness made one's hair stand on end. Lin Ziyu continued, "They want to confirm whether 'Sagali's' limitations on the race can be lifted, needing regained freedom — did you do it?"

The Slan Royal Family also noticed Blue Star Civilization's strange actions — inexplicable bald women public welfare advertisements, where the women depicted, if carefully identified, bore resemblance to humans, yet their eyes and aura starkly contrasted humanity.

Human eyesight distinguishing capability is high, even less than 1% deviation can trigger an "uncanny valley" reaction.

Thus, it's not easy for aliens to impersonate humans.

"Yes, I acquired original 'Seed Nest' gifts, possessing a significant portion of 'Sagali' civilization technology."

Chen Fei no longer concealed, as it was proof needed to persuade those Enslaved Races, and could not be kept secret.
