Rejecting Tsinghua and Peking Universities: I Will Lead Harbin Institute of Technology to World Lead

"Kill them all, plunder everything they have."

Without further ado, the golden-haired ape issued its latest command decisively. Its voice was icy and chilling, as if it were instructing someone on a trivial matter.

"Yes."

The other apes heard this and answered in muffled voices.

The next moment, they raised their heads and looked at the Xuanyuan space carrier in the sky.

Those dark red eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty ferocity.

Roar--

Thousands of giant apes roared simultaneously, leaping thousands of meters into the air. Their massive bodies traced trails in space, and although they were still far from the Xuanyuan space carrier, their giant axes began to gather power as they ascended.

Dark red energy was frantically gathering on the axe blade, like a volcano about to erupt.

In the command center, alarms blared instantly.

"What are they doing? A jumping attack? How is that possible..."

Someone muttered incredulously. But before they could finish speaking, the image on the screen provided the answer.

The next moment, the group of apes simultaneously swung their giant axes.

An astonishingly dark red compressed laser shot out from the axe blade, appearing instantly before the Xuanyuan space carrier at terrifying speed. That speed surpassed the limits of the naked eye, arriving almost the instant the axe was swung.

The sudden attack caught the crew of the Xuanyuan space carrier off guard.

The first dark red compressed laser struck the space carrier, creating ripples. That was a sign that the Homeguard Shield was activating; the energy was being gradually dissipated and weakened on the shield's surface.

Immediately following, the second and third dark red compressed lasers... landed on the space carrier.

The ripples grew more intense, and the shield's light dimmed.

Hundreds of dark red compressed lasers arrived almost simultaneously. The Homeguard's energy depletion rate could no longer keep up with the attack frequency, and the first crack appeared on the shield.

Then, the crack spread.

boom!

The homeworld guardians of the Xuanyuan space carrier were completely rendered ineffective. The moment the shields collapsed, the remaining dark red lasers pierced through the ship's hull without any hindrance.

The massive space carrier trembled violently in space, dozens of huge holes appearing on its hull. Flames erupted from its interior as its energy core went out of control. The entire warship exploded before everyone's eyes, turning into countless fragments that scattered into space.

"Damn it!"

As Lin Feng watched the monkeys' sudden attack destroy a space carrier, his eyes instantly turned cold.

That is one of China's most advanced aerospace carriers, with thousands of outstanding soldiers on board.

That's it, gone.

"Attack them!" Lin Feng practically roared. "All weapons, fire at full power!"

The order was instantly transmitted to every combat unit.

The various weapons, already positioned, launched another devastating attack on the group of apes.

Swish swish!

The Wukong space-based weapon platform in Mars orbit fired first, dozens of thick photon beams tearing through the void and heading straight for the giant apes. The light-speed warship formation followed closely behind, their photon cannons roaring simultaneously. The White Tiger armored forces deployed in mid-air, their shoulder weapons unleashing dense beam nets.

The terrifying photon weapon transformed into a pure beam of light, instantly appearing on the group of apes.

Boom boom boom!

The first round of attacks hit its mark precisely.

The dark red armor on the giant apes suddenly glowed, frantically absorbing the energy beams of the photon weapon. Just like the previous planet absorbing the attack, their armor also possessed the ability to devour energy.

But this time, the situation is different.

Although their armor can absorb energy, their absorption rate is too slow compared to the scale of an entire planet that can devour everything in an instant.

Moreover, the photon weapons attacked so densely that as soon as one beam was absorbed, the next one arrived. And then the next, and the next… giving them no chance to breathe.

Bang bang bang!

Laser weapons rained down on the apes. Their armor spun wildly, dark red patterns flashing frantically, trying to absorb all the incoming energy.

However, the absorption rate is far slower than the attack rate.

With each beam of photons striking them, their dark red armor dimmed a little. The once freely flowing energy patterns began to slow and become disordered, as if they were about to collapse at any moment.

"It's working!" someone shouted excitedly in the command center. "They can't absorb it all!"

Lin Feng stared intently at the screen, his pupils reflecting the giant apes struggling to hold on.

Thousands of giant apes were bombarded in mid-air by countless beams of photon energy. They swung their giant axes, trying to cleave through the beams, but there were too many and too dense to cut through. Cracks began to appear in the armor of some of the giant apes, and dark red energy leaked out from the cracks.

"Damn it, these humans have mastered even more powerful weapons!"

The golden-haired apes roared in frustration at the scene before them. Their armor couldn't absorb enough energy to keep up with the human attacks; if this continued, it would eventually reach a critical point and become completely ineffective.

At that time, their bodies will be pierced by the beam of light, and they will be killed by these ant-like humans.

This outcome was something they had never imagined.

In their understanding, humanity is merely an inferior civilization, lambs to the slaughter, a enslaved race destined to submit or perish. They have slumbered for billions of years, devouring countless civilizations, and have never encountered an opponent capable of resisting them.

But today, they met.

"We miscalculated, and we came out too early!" the golden-haired ape roared in frustration. "Get back into the crevice immediately!"

It gave the command to the apes behind it and swooped down towards the huge crack on the planet's surface.

The other apes, as if granted a pardon, abandoned their resistance and frantically fled towards the rift. They wielded their giant axes, cleaving through the pursuing beams of light, their massive bodies leaving haphazard trails in the space.

"Trying to run away?"

Lin Feng kept a close eye on the war. He noticed that while the apes could cleave through and absorb photon weapons, they also discovered a crucial point: as the photon weapons struck them repeatedly, their dark red armor became increasingly dull.

What does this tell us?

This indicates that their absorption capacity has an upper limit.

As long as the attack speed exceeds their absorption speed, and as long as the firepower is dense and sustained enough, they will be defeated and killed.

"This attack was effective against these apes." Lin Feng decisively issued a new order, "Increase the firepower and take them down!"

The moment the order was given, all weapon systems simultaneously entered maximum power output mode.

The main cannon of the Wukong Space-based weapon platform began charging, preparing to launch a fatal blow. The light-speed warship formation adjusted its formation, aiming all its cannons at the entrance to the crack. The White Tiger armored force abandoned its formation and pursued relentlessly, firing wildly as it went.

More photon beams poured down like a torrential rain, relentlessly bombarding the fleeing giant apes.

One of the giant apes lagging behind was struck simultaneously by dozens of beams of light. Its armor finally gave way and shattered. Without the protection of its armor, its flesh was instantly pierced by the beams, turning into a cloud of blood mist amidst a scream.

Another one.

Another one.

Every time a giant ape was killed, a cheer would erupt in the command center.

But these cheers were quickly drowned out by even louder roars.

The golden-haired ape glanced back at its fallen kin, its golden fur standing on end, its eyes burning with raging fury.

But it did not turn back, nor did it retaliate.

It plunged wildly toward the crack at an astonishing speed.

Finally, the first giant ape charged into the crevice. Then came the second, the third…

Lin Feng frowned. At this speed, most of the giant apes could escape back.

"Main gun, fire!"

The main cannon of the Wukong Space-based weapon platform was finally fully charged, and a super-giant photon beam with a diameter of over 100 meters shot out, heading straight for the entrance to the crack.

boom--

A terrifying explosion erupted at the entrance of the rift, instantly vaporizing more than a dozen giant apes that couldn't escape in time. But the rift itself remained completely still, with dark red energy surging from its depths, actually blocking the main cannon attack that was powerful enough to destroy an asteroid.

When the light faded, the entrance to the crack was empty.

All the giant apes fled back.

Only the scattered fragments of corpses in space remain as proof of the authenticity of the battle that just took place.

Inside the command center, the cheers gradually subsided.

Everyone was breathing heavily, staring at the crack on the screen that had fallen silent once again.

Won?

I guess you could say we won.

Of the thousands of giant apes, nearly a hundred were killed. Humanity, on the other hand, only lost the Xuanyuan space carrier.

Judging from the casualty ratio, this was a major victory.

But no one could laugh.

Because they know this is just the beginning.

The golden-haired ape escaped back. Many more giant apes remain deep within the planet. They already know that humans possess photon weapons that could threaten them. They will be prepared the next time they emerge.

Lin Feng took a deep breath and slowly said, "Take stock of the damage, repair equipment, and replenish ammunition. This is just the first wave."

He paused, his gaze falling on the dark crack.

"Next time, they won't be so easily driven away."

In the command center, everyone nodded silently.

The battle has only just begun.
