“It’s truly incredible!” Kong Qing exclaimed, “It’s still in its embryonic stage. If it continues to grow like this, I’m afraid it will become a giant beast in the future!”
“Yes, its required life-sustaining materials are twenty times that of other similar mutant creatures!” Ye Yun said, “This is definitely a high-level Zerg, without a doubt!”
“Its heart structure, body structure, and various organs are extremely valuable research data for us!” He Xingzhou said to Xue Yang and the others, “Academician Liu, Professor Ye, this mission owes much to you both!”
“We were just following orders,” the two of them said.
Song Jinhong said, “This experimental subject should become a key research focus. Our team should study it together!”
“Hmm.” He Xingzhou naturally agreed. He said, “Professor Ye, it’s your team’s achievement. Why don’t you give it a name?”
“We sacrificed two Flood Dragon Submarines to capture it, and it has horns, so let’s call it Qiu Long.”
“Then Qiu Long it is!” He Xingzhou looked at the jadeite tank, saying, “I have a premonition that the structure of this Qiu Long is crucial!”
“It may contain Zerg bioenergy utilization and biotechnology!”
The research on Qiu Long turned into another focal project of the Xuanwu Plan.
At this moment, He Xingzhou did not have the time to research these things. His focus was on military technology.

When they discovered the Zerg nest in the Mariana Trench, He Xingzhou concluded that there was definitely more than one Zerg nest in the ocean!
*All these mutant creatures migrated here, so doesn’t their origin location have even more of them?*
*Like the iceberg theory suggests, the iceberg we can see is just a small part; the larger part is hidden in the depths!*
*And if these Zerg abilities evolve further, with the current level of human technology, we won’t be able to resist them!*
So he had to continue rapidly upgrading technology, especially weapons and equipment!
He Xingzhou called out the Quantum Light Computer and opened the military technology branch of the tech tree. This branch was particularly extensive.
Firearms, artillery, missiles, armored vehicles, ships, air defense weapons, fighter jets…
Any technology line could be upgraded.
*I must think clearly, what is most needed right now?* He Xingzhou analyzed. Manufacturing ship technology directly is a bit unrealistic at the moment. The current need should be to protect coastal cities.
“Let’s start with the basics of armored mechanical technology—mechanical exoskeletons and mechanical arm technology!” He Xingzhou selected his target.
The reason for choosing this was that mechanical arm technology and mechanical exoskeletons could both be used to accelerate construction.
Engineering devices with flexible mechanical arms could speed up construction efficiency. Add AI intelligence, and they’d become unmanned machinery, working autonomously!
Now, many soldiers were assisting in construction; mechanical exoskeletons could help them build and allow them to carry higher loads and possess more firepower.
Furthermore, with the current level of industrial manufacturing, these were the easiest to mass-produce.
Even if He Xingzhou produced a design blueprint for an aircraft carrier now, it couldn’t be built in a short time!
“Spend two hundred thousand energy points to unlock intermediate ergonomics technology.”
“Spend three hundred thousand energy points to unlock small mechanical arm, light mechanical arm, and heavy mechanical arm manufacturing technology.”
“Spend three hundred thousand energy points to unlock mechanical exoskeleton technology.”
He Xingzhou unlocked these technologies, understood, and digested them, then immediately began designing.
He started with the three types of mechanical arms.
“Energy-wise, we have industrial-grade metal-air batteries; that’s not a problem.”
“Power systems, structural systems, and engineering operation systems need designing.”
“For the AI system, let Xuanwu assist; it has already absorbed a lot of mechanical knowledge.”
He Xingzhou used the Quantum Computer to begin high-speed designing.
…
Days later, He Xingzhou had already completed the designs for small and light mechanical arms and was communicating with Academician Lu Jianye, discussing manufacturing issues.
At this moment, his emergency communicator rang.
Lu Jianye said, “You go ahead and take care of that; we’ll resolve the manufacturing issues as quickly as possible!”
“Alright!” He Xingzhou didn’t stand on ceremony, hung up the call, and then answered the emergency communicator, putting on VR glasses.
Most of the time, people were still used to using VR glasses instead of holographic projections.
Because holographic projections lacked secrecy, making it visible to bystanders. VR glasses allowed only personal viewing, offering more privacy.
“What happened? An emergency call?” He Xingzhou asked, as other Xuanwu Executives also joined the call.
“It’s from the ocean monitoring side!” Liu Tianhu said, “Satellite monitoring shows that the Bai Ying’s exploration fleet is about to reach the Mariana Trench!”
“So soon? Didn’t they intend to investigate for a while longer?” Qin Peng said. They always knew that various countries were investigating the Mariana Trench, but only a few countries were capable of deep-sea exploration.
Other countries with insufficient technological capabilities couldn’t even manufacture deep-sea probes! Moreover, they faced the attacks of mutant creatures, significantly increasing the difficulty.
“I suppose they have already made some discoveries!” Kong Qing remarked, “Bai Ying’s deep-sea exploration technology was leading globally before our technological breakthrough!”
“Switch to the Sky Net satellite feed to see the situation!” Qin Peng said, and their perspective shifted to the Sky Net satellite feed.
Through the satellite’s perspective, they could see Bai Ying’s exploration fleet advancing towards the Mariana Trench in the Pacific Ocean.
This fleet included seventeen ships! Cruisers, escort ships, supply ships, and a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier!
In addition, there were twenty quantity research vessels responsible for fishing and exploring.
“That’s a formidable lineup!” Cui Weimin exclaimed, “It seems they’ve set their mind on gaining some results this time!”
“Based on route analysis, the coordinates they’re advancing to match our previous exploration coordinates,” the intelligent system Xuanwu said.
“As expected, they found the location!” Song Jinhong said, “But with our earlier exploration, the Zerg probably won’t let them figure it out that easily this time!”
“They might end up suffering a massive loss!”
He Hongwei said, “We’ve already warned them that it’s dangerous here.”
“We also need to be on alert to prevent them from angering the Zerg and causing any unforeseen incidents!”
“Let’s keep watching. The whole world is likely paying attention to their exploration mission now!”
In fact, Bai Ying’s deep-sea exploration activity wasn’t publicly broadcasted but wasn’t hidden either.
Regions with developed satellite or detection technology could see bits and pieces.
Unlike elsewhere, they could only see some oblique aerial views via satellites.
But because of the space surveying capability of Sky Net, He Xingzhou and others could see clearly! Below the ocean’s surface, their ocean monitoring systems allowed them to view underwater scenes!
…
“Have all the detectors been deployed?” On the ship, Beck asked his subordinates. Today, he was leading the research team.
“Everything’s been deployed; we’ve launched a hundred thousand small deep-sea detectors. Our thirty deep-diving devices are also ready!”
Their prepared deep-diving devices were more than ten times what He Xingzhou prepared before.
“General Harvey, we’re ready on our end and can begin!” Beck said to the fleet commander.
“Good, the ships will assist you in executing your mission!” Harvey shouted, “Feel free to dive; however many mutant creatures there are, we’ll blast them all!”
“Today’s fleet, with more than a dozen ships, is here to bomb fish in the Pacific Ocean!”
Not only him, but others on the ship were also itching to act. In these days, there were rumors about how powerful the Zerg were, about the ocean being occupied by monsters, which made the fleet members lose face.
They’d waited long enough for today to come so they could face the so-called Zerg!
“I bet plenty of people are watching now!” Beck thought to himself, delighted. With such a powerful lineup, could they really expect no results?
If they could capture a few big monsters, he would become world-renowned!
“All diving devices, into the water!” he shouted.
