The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 389: Sleeping Beauty

All their guesses were wrong. No one could have imagined that so much Psychicpower would be related to a fragment bearing the image of a woman's right hand.

Su Chen took the fragment back and handed it over to Yun Ru for research.

A day later, Yun Ru found Su Chen, her expression astonished. "Commander, after my research overnight, I've found that theoretically, this material is virtually impossible to break. I can't fathom what kind of force turned this thing into fragments. It's truly unbelievable."

Su Chen was somewhat surprised. A theoretically unbreakable object, how did it become fragmented?

Considering the size of the fragment, there might be several dozen remaining fragments. What kind of power could achieve this?

Su Chen tried to crush the fragment, but no matter how much strength he exerted, the fragment remained unchanged. Using Psychicpower yielded the same resultno effect on the fragment whatsoever.

This fragment was truly baffling!

Later, Su Chen called Les over. Les had been living quite comfortably during this period, except that he couldn't leave the base.

"Do you recognize this thing?" Su Chen showed the fragment to Les.

Les glanced at it, squinted his eyes, pondered for a while, and then said seriously, "I don't recognize it."

"You're a Protoss. Think carefully, do you recognize it?" Su Chen's expression was emotionless.

Hearing the clear threat in Su Chen's words, Les had no choice but to look at it again and also asked, "What's special about this thing with an image of a woman's hand?"

They couldn't discern the material, so they had to resort to other methods of inquiry.

Su Chen didn't hide anything and said, "This thing can store Psychicpower, and it's extremely hard."

Les furrowed his brows and then his expression gradually turned shocked, as if he had thought of something.

"It's impossible! How could something like this be turned into this form? It's unscientific!" Les seemed to be hit by some sort of shock, his expression full of astonishment.

"Do you know the material of this thing?"

After a while, Les's emotions gradually stabilized, but a hint of incomprehension still lingered in his eyes. "If I'm not mistaken, this material is called Ancient Silver. It's said to be one of the most durable materials in the universe. Back then, the Protoss managed to acquire a piece of it and used every method but couldn't alter its form. The Protoss regarded it as one of the hardest materials."

"Even the most powerful Protoss, a Constellation-level expert, couldn't leave a mark on Ancient Silver. Who could have turned Ancient Silver into a painting?"

This was the part that Les couldn't wrap his head around. Even a Constellation-level expert couldn't achieve it. Did it require someone stronger than a Constellation-level expert?

Hearing Les's words, Su Chen finally understood just how extreme this material was. Even a Constellation-level expert couldn't leave a mark on it. So, who could have turned this painting into fragments?

Moreover, the fragments could absorb Psychicpower, which was puzzling.

They only knew that only living beings possessed Psychicpower, yet this was just a fragment.

Les seemed to have realized this as well, and he said with certainty, "The Protoss tested Ancient Silver with Psychicpower before, and it didn't have the ability to absorb Psychicpower. This might not be Ancient Silver; it could be some other unknown material."

This didn't concern Su Chen; he didn't need any materials in the Red Alert base. As long as he had energy and technology, he could create anything!

Later, during dinner, Su Chen took out the fragment and looked at it again. Leng Yuwei, who was sitting beside him, curiously asked, "You've been looking at this fragment several times. Is there something strange about it?"

After Su Chen returned, he had told her about what happened on the Moon, and she knew that Su Chen had picked up this fragment from there. However, she didn't know about the fragment's extraordinary properties.

"Hmm, there are many puzzling aspects. Take a look," Su Chen said and handed the fragment to Leng Yuwei.

However, Su Chen could never have anticipated that the moment Leng Yuwei's hand touched the fragment, an indescribably strong surge of Psychicpower enveloped Leng Yuwei.

"Not good!"

In that instant, Yuri and Libra in the base detected this unfamiliar Psychicpower, and it seemed to be coming from the area where the Commander was. They rushed out immediately.

Simultaneously, a loud alarm blared in the basea Red Alert!

When they appeared by the Commander's side, all they saw was the Commander standing there, with a person leaning against him, eyes closed.

Bang!

A massive table split into five parts in an instant, shattered by the anger that erupted from Su Chen.

"Commander, what happened?" Ju Ling was the first to ask.

"I shouldn't have given her the fragment," Su Chen's voice carried a hint of regret.

Just a short while ago, after the fragment came into contact with Leng Yuwei, an overpowering Psychicpower covered her. Subsequently, Leng Yuwei fell into a deep sleep. No matter what methods Su Chen tried, he couldn't wake her up.

At this moment, Leng Yuwei became a sleeping beauty.

Su Chen would never have thought that this fragment would react with Leng Yuwei, especially since many others had handled it without incident.

Afterward, Su Chen had Leng Yuwei undergo a comprehensive examination, which revealed that her bodily functions were completely normal. She appeared to be in a vegetative state.

"According to Commander's account, I have a hypothesis," Yun Ru furrowed her brows and said, "The massive influx of Psychicpower into Madam's body might have overwhelmed her, leading to her current condition. When Xiaocheng used Psychicpower to examine her, he couldn't enter her inner world at all. This hypothesis is highly likely."

"Furthermore, the disappearance of the fragment could be related to Madam merging with it. The fragment and Madam might have a significant connection."

Su Chen knew that Leng Yuwei's identity was far from simple, but no one knew the specifics. Therefore, the likelihood of her having a connection with the fragment was high.

He even suspected that when the fragment was complete, the woman depicted on it might be Leng Yuwei herself.

In any case, Leng Yuwei's deep sleep seemed inevitable. With the current technology of the Red Alert base, they couldn't wake her up.

"System, is there a way to wake her up?" Su Chen's voice was calm.

"With your current permissions and strength, it's not possible. But as you continue to ascend, there will definitely be a solution."

"I understand."

From that day on, Su Chen focused all his energy on enhancing the strength of the Red Alert base. His zeal made even his super soldiers feel somewhat uneasythis was truly reckless determination.

"Commander, Emperor Kong wants to contact you," Ju Ling, standing behind Su Chen, suddenly spoke up.
