I Can Control Resources

Dark figures filled the sky, appearing out of thin air.

They all wore black, hooded cloaks.

In an instant, they appeared directly above Wu Qingjing.

They gazed down below.

Their eyes fell upon Liang Qi and the swarm of reporters holding up their cameras.

The winter wind gusted, making their cloaks whip and flap. Their gazes were icy, their expressions placid, and their faces were all identical.

They had appeared just like that, and now they descended like a dark storm cloud.

"..." Wu Qingjing’s face instantly went rigid.

In that moment, he was beyond sorrow, joy, anger, or worry. He no longer knew what was going through his mind. He could only stare blankly at the descending figures, his mind a total void.

BOOM!

The first dark figure shot down and struck Wu Qingjing with a single palm.

Then came the second.

And the third.

Innumerable dark figures swarmed down, batting Wu Qingjing out of the air like a rubber ball.

CRASH!

Wu Qingjing smashed into the ground.

But he wasn’t angry, because his injuries weren’t serious.

Gao Neng had no intention of hurting him.

However, the issue wasn’t whether he was hurt. It was... ’Damn, that’s a lot of gene weapons! And they’re all Tier Eight Late Stage!’

After being knocked to the ground, Wu Qingjing was momentarily stunned. But that stupor quickly gave way to sheer madness.

Four, eight, sixteen, thirty-two, sixty-four...

More than sixty-four!

So many! There were so many!

A dense, dark mass of them—at least a hundred!

’Over a hundred Tier Eight gene weapons! And they were all successfully created using Gao Neng as the template! What does that mean?!’

It meant that forget one Wu Qingjing—even ten of him wouldn’t be enough to take them on!

In fact, it wasn’t just Wu Qingjing who was losing his mind.

When the reporters saw the dense swarm of figures, they went wild, too. After all, you’d have to be an idiot not to realize what these things were.

"They’re all Gao Neng!"

"They all look exactly like Gao Neng! And they’re so, so powerful!"

"They’re... they’re gene weapons!"

"Tier Eight at least!"

"Over a hundred Tier Eight gene weapons... enough to defeat Speaker Wu!"

An uproar swept through the press corps.

They had never witnessed one person wielding this kind of power.

"He... he actually... did it?!" Sweat poured down Liang Qi’s forehead, and a chill ran down his spine. The scene was simply too staggering.

Most importantly, this was a scene he had once only dreamed of.

When he first learned of Gao Neng’s hidden talent, he had wondered if they could use Gao Neng as a progenitor to continuously create powerful gene weapons. If so, perhaps they could turn the tide of the war a year from now.

Back then, he had thought that creating even a few Tier Seven gene weapons would be sufficient.

Tier Eight gene weapons...

That would really just be up to luck.

After all, the Human Alliance’s resources weren’t infinite.

But now?

What was this before his very eyes?

Over a hundred Tier Eight gene weapons!

In just one month, Gao Neng had achieved something Liang Qi hadn’t even dared to dream of—and they were all Tier Eight gene weapons, without exception.

"..."

Shock. Excitement.

A storm of emotions swept through the area.

And across the Human Alliance, people were glued to their screens, watching the scene unfold: a dense, dark swarm of identical Gao Nengs.

"Gao Neng..." Fang Tangtang murmured, looking at the real Gao Neng beside her. She finally understood what he had meant when he said, ’I alone can slaughter a city.’

’I reckon I can’t take the Royal City! But a regular capital city is no problem!’

Those had been Gao Neng’s exact words.

Fang Tangtang had thought it was just a joke.

But now, who would dare call it a joke?!

A hundred Tier Eights were enough to slaughter a city!

This was no joke at all!

"Quick! Stop filming! Don’t shoot anymore!" At the scene, Uncle Bai and Luna suddenly snapped to their senses.

’There are alien spies in the City of Hope!’

’One hundred Tier Eight Late Stage gene weapons... this is an overwhelmingly powerful force.’

’It’s even enough to reverse the tide of the war a year from now.’

’This information has to be classified. It absolutely cannot get out.’

"Don’t worry, Madam Lu, Uncle Bai, Teacher Wu. Let them film!" Gao Neng declared, standing atop the Flying Earth Dragon and looking down below.

"..." Wu Qingjing.

"..." Luna and Uncle Bai.

"Today, before the entire Human Alliance, I’ve brought these Tier Eight gene weapons into the light. I have no intention of hiding them!" As Gao Neng spoke, all the gene weapons floated into formation around him.

Over a hundred gene weapons!

Each one radiated immense pressure!

It was a scene of absolute domination.

"They really are Tier Eight gene weapons!"

"Over a hundred of them!"

"So... so strong!"

The reporters finally had their confirmation.

With trembling hands, they aimed their cameras at Gao Neng on his Flying Earth Dragon, surrounded by his floating army of Tier Eight gene weapons.

Gao Neng, however, remained perfectly calm, allowing the cameras to capture him and his gene weapons.

"I know there are alien spies within the Human Alliance. I’ve encountered them personally, and I’ve even killed several. So I’m very clear on how deeply they are hidden. They might even be watching this live broadcast on TV right now. But I don’t care!"
