The whole nation: You're put to survive on a desolate planet, you'll be running an alien b

The gray-robed man carrying the briefcase had his Adam's apple bobbing wildly as he watched Li Haotian approach step by step, his hands trembling like leaves in the autumn wind.

With a loud bang.

The silver metal briefcase fell to the ground.

The man in the gray robe turned and ran, scrambling and crawling as if he wished his parents had given him two more legs.

Why are you running so fast? I didn't say I was going to kill you.

Li Haotian's voice sounded eerily behind him, startling him so much that he stumbled and almost fell flat on his face, making him run even faster.

"Brother, I'm so sleepy."

Lin Mo tugged at his sleeve from behind, her voice heavy with sleepiness.

Li Haotian turned around and saw that Lin Mo's eyelids were drooping and his little head was nodding.

"Then take a nap."

As soon as Li Haotian finished speaking, Lin Mo's body went limp.

Purple light seeped from beneath her skin, growing brighter and brighter until it condensed into a translucent purple cocoon that enveloped her entirely, suspending her in mid-air.

On the surface of the cocoon, the pattern of the jade pendant that had previously blended into her brow flashed by.

Li Haotian reached out and poked the cocoon of light; it felt firm and slightly warm.

He bent down to pick up the metal briefcase from the ground, weighed it in his hand, and found it to be quite heavy.

"Brother Dazhu, turn it on." Su Wan's weak but urgent voice came through the earpiece.

"The box has a combination lock and a self-destruct mechanism, but I've already hacked it. I have three seconds to input the password."

Li Haotian placed the box on a relatively intact dining table with one hand, and randomly pressed a few numbers on the keypad with the other.

Click.

The box popped open.

There were no gold or silver jewelry inside, only a solid-state drive wrapped in blue shock-absorbing foam, lying quietly in the groove.

"The scan results are in... It's a solid-state drive with a very high encryption level."

Su Wan paused for a moment, seemingly trying her best to break through the defense.

"It's broken open... Inside is the core data of Lin Mo's extracted consciousness... Han Dehai and his gang of lunatics, they treat human consciousness like code!"

Li Haotian closed the suitcase and carried it in his hand.

He walked to the cocoon of light, tore off a few relatively clean pieces of tablecloth, tied them into a tight knot, and carried the purple cocoon of light steadily on his back.

He walked out of the venue through the messy floor.

The shadow warrior with the shaved head was still kneeling at the door, foaming at the mouth and unconscious.

Li Haotian walked past him without even glancing at him.

As soon as I stepped out of the Cloud Top Clubhouse, a gust of cold wind carrying the smell of gunpowder blew in.

Outside the gate, a dense crowd completely surrounded the mountaintop.

Hundreds of armed men dressed in black combat uniforms and wearing tactical helmets pointed their automatic rifles at him.

Behind the crowd were several menacing heavy armored vehicles, their thick cannons slowly rotating on their roofs, locking onto Li Haotian's figure.

Further away, several soldiers carried dark missile launchers on their shoulders.

A middle-aged man in a well-tailored suit with slicked-back hair walked out of the crowd.

He held a megaphone in his hand, his face radiating an arrogant confidence.

"Li Haotian, or should I call you Li Dazhu?"

"Mr. Han asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Put down the experimental subject, commit suicide to atone for your sins, and we might leave you with a whole corpse."

Li Haotian switched the briefcase in his hand to the other and tilted his head.

"The villains these days really don't know any manners at all."

The man in the suit seemed to be angered by his nonchalant attitude. His face darkened, and he suddenly waved his hand at the soldier carrying the missile next to him.

"emission!"

call out--

A fiery dragon, trailing a long tail of flames and emitting a piercing shriek, tore through the night sky and hurtled straight toward Li Haotian's face.

The air was distorted by the high temperature, and scorching waves of heat rushed towards us.

Li Haotian stood still, without even blinking.

He simply extended his right hand.

Just as the missile, powerful enough to flatten a house, was about to hit him, he spread his fingers and firmly grasped the scalding hot warhead.

The violent impact stopped abruptly in his palm, not even allowing him to take a single step back.

The entire scene was deathly silent.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the man who was holding the missile with one hand, as if they were witnessing a myth.

"This thing is pretty warm."

Li Haotian muttered something, grabbed the missile warhead, and spun around on the spot using his feet as a pivot.

The arm muscles bulged slightly, and the wrist exerted force.

"Here you go."

He threw the missile back at an even faster speed than when he brought it.

"No--"

The arrogance on the man in the suit was instantly replaced by boundless fear. He turned to run, but it was too late.

A loud bang.

The missile struck the heavy armored vehicle behind him with pinpoint accuracy.

The terrifying explosion unleashed a massive fireball, shattering the steel war machine into pieces, with parts and flames flying dozens of meters into the air.

The blast wave sent dozens of armed men flying, and the man in the suit was torn to pieces.

"Open fire! Open fire! Kill him!"

After a brief silence, a commander roared at the top of his lungs.

Da da da da!

Dense tongues of fire spewed out, and a metal storm composed of hundreds of automatic rifles instantly engulfed Li Haotian.

However, all the bullets seemed to hit an invisible wall within half a meter of his body, clattering and turning into a pile of scrap metal that fell to the ground.

Li Haotian completely ignored the hail of bullets raining down on him.

He carried Lin Mo's light cocoon on his back and his suitcase, walking forward step by step.

His pace was slow, like a leisurely stroll in the park after dinner.

A fearless soldier roared and charged forward with his bayonet.

Li Haotian didn't even turn around; he simply slapped him across the face.

Snapped!

A crisp sound.

The soldier, gun and all, flew horizontally for more than ten meters like a tattered sack, knocking over seven or eight of his comrades. When he landed, he was already a pile of mud.

Several more soldiers rushed in from the side, their high-voltage stun batons flashing a terrifying blue light.

Li Haotian simply lifted his foot and swept it lightly.

Click!

The sound of bones breaking was clearly audible.

The soldiers' legs bent at an unnatural angle, and they fell to the ground screaming in agony.

As he walked, people fell down along the way.

He didn't use any earth-shattering moves; sometimes he just flicked his finger, and sometimes he just leaned on his shoulder.

Those well-trained soldiers were as fragile as paper in his presence.

He neither ran nor hid.

He strolled leisurely through the encirclement made up of bullets and flesh and blood.

To him, those soldiers seemed to pose no threat whatsoever, merely obstacles in the roadside that he could easily kick aside.

When he reached the edge of the encirclement, there was no one left standing behind him, only twisted bodies and painful wails.

He patted off imaginary dust, as if he had merely swatted away a swarm of annoying flies.

"Brother Dazhu!"

Su Wan's voice came through the earpiece again, filled with the gasps of relief after surviving the ordeal and the joy of new discoveries.

"I've intercepted their internal communications! Han Dehai's main force is withdrawing!"

"They went to an abandoned cannery in the northern suburbs!"

Li Haotian stopped and looked up at the night sky to the north.

Su Wan's voice became extremely solemn.

"Satellite signals indicate that the energy reaction there... is more than ten times that beneath the Han family manor!"

"Brother Dazhu, their most important 'mother core' is right there!"

Li Haotian looked down at Lin Mo, who was sleeping on his back, and then at the briefcase containing fragments of her consciousness in his hand.

Cannery?
