Chapter 234 Mind Control
Chen Yuan was completely unaware of the alien race's assassination plot against him.
At this moment, he was following two white-robed leaders, checking the Zerg households corresponding to their numbers one by one.
With the three of them flying at near the speed of light, they had inspected more than 1,400 units of cargo in just ten days.
It must be said that King Longjue was really good to him. The insectoid corpses that Chen Yuan had examined in the past few days were all of good quality compared to other scattered corpses in the starry sky. They were all of medium to high quality, and even the majority were of excellent quality.
Based on this ratio, after he has reviewed 5 Zerg units, the 33000 units he selects will all be of at least excellent quality. At that time, these 33000 units will be able to achieve the effect of at least 6 units. This is the benefit of connections.
In order to save time, Chen Yuan would collect any Zerg corpses that were of good quality. So far, he has collected 1200 Zerg corpses.
As far as Chen Yuan was concerned, the quality of the resources didn't matter much. Since most of the resources of excellent quality or above were not that different, he could collect them in advance to save himself the trouble of making another trip.
Of course, there is another reason: after acquiring the Zerg host bodies in advance, he can make the three Zerg queens immediately begin producing Zerg warriors.
It should be noted that the three mother empresses are currently in the Shiyuan Palace, enjoying a 150-fold acceleration of time.
For them, Chen Yuan's one year of selection outside is equivalent to 150 years!
The "Zerg King Warriors" that Chen Yuan requested could be produced even faster than ordinary Zerg, with each Queen producing an average of one hundred Zerg King Warriors per day.
This means that after Chen Yuan completes the year-long selection process, each Queen will control more than 50 Zerg Kings.
Such a combined attack from the legions is even more powerful than a full-force strike from a peak-level King, enough to instantly kill an ordinary King-level Immortal.
In other words, a year later, Chen Yuan will have three more bodyguards with the combat power to be crowned king.
Time slipped away quietly as he leisurely made his purchases, and half a year had passed in the blink of an eye. Chen Yuan had also selected more than 16700 Zerg units.
The three Zerg Queens have nurtured a total of over 70 King Warriors, with each Queen controlling an average of over 20 King Warriors.
Meanwhile, the alien infiltrator not far from Chen Yuan—the lean, black-scaled man—was becoming increasingly agitated.
"Damn, those three are flying way too fast."
The lean man gritted his teeth, "Flying at near-light speed, aren't you worried that His Highness's body won't be able to handle it?"
This lean man, named "Kosel," is ostensibly an observer and maintenance worker in the Wulong Starfield, but his true identity is an assassin infiltrated by an alien race, known as "Number 6"!
At this moment, Kossler was anxious because half a year had passed since he began his assassination mission, and he still hadn't found an opportunity to get close to his target.
It should be noted that he ostensibly entered the Garbage Mountain Treasure Hunt through the qualification, and as an insider, he would receive the qualification to hunt for the Garbage Mountain Treasure Hunt once for free in each era.
This free qualification only grants access to the most basic World Ring, and the offer is valid for only one year. There are also ten or a hundred years to go before reaching higher-level World Rings.
If you want to stay longer, you can only spend money to buy better qualifications. Of course, given Kosser's status, he definitely can't afford such qualifications through Taobao.
Now, he has been searching for treasures in the garbage mountain for half a year, and he will have to leave in at most another half a year. However, he has not yet found a way to get closer to his goal.
It was because those three people were flying too fast. Normally, the speed of a realm master would not exceed 100,000 kilometers per second, because such a speed would be of no burden to a realm master.
However, this does not mean that 100,000 kilometers is the limit for a World Lord, especially since a peak World Lord can fly at speeds that are infinitely close to the speed of light.
This speed is basically the upper limit in the original universe, because once you reach the speed of light, you will directly enter the dark universe.
Therefore, if Kosser wants to get closer to his target, he first needs to keep up with them. The best way to do this is to intercept them in advance on their likely route.
The problem is that his opponent's speed makes it impossible for him to overtake, let alone get around to the front.
"There are only six months left, and given the target's purchasing efficiency, they will only stay here for a maximum of six months."
The lean man, Kosel, muttered to himself, "I have no time to waste. I must get close to them at all costs, even if it means revealing my weaknesses."
Just then, he noticed that Chen Yuan and the other two had stopped. It turned out that they had arrived at a resource-rich area where many numbered Zerg corpses had gathered.
"A great opportunity!"
Kosel realized this was a golden opportunity and immediately flew towards the three of them.
Such a high speed, and flying straight towards the three of them, seemed somewhat abnormal. The three of them, who were selecting Zerg corpses, all noticed this situation.
"Someone's coming."
Chen Yuan's mind raced, and he instantly launched a mental scan, clearly capturing the other party's figure. At the same time, he warned, "Someone is flying straight towards us. Their behavior is suspicious."
"Huh, I sensed it too."
One of the men in white robes looked puzzled; it was the first time he had encountered such a situation. "But we're quite far away, so I can't tell who it is yet."
"They might just be passing by," another man in white robes shook his head slightly. "They might not necessarily be here for us."
"—" Chen Yuan sighed helplessly as he looked at the two who were completely unaware of the danger.
That makes sense. Civil servants who live in one place their whole lives are indeed less sensitive to situations like inter-ethnic wars and assassinations, so it's normal for them to not be able to react immediately.
But Chen Yuan wasn't as naive as the two of them. He immediately used his Force to sketch the other person's figure: "Do you know this person?"
"It's Kosser, a colleague from the maintenance department."
The two men immediately recognized him, and one of them breathed a sigh of relief: "There's probably some equipment malfunction somewhere, so he came to check it."
"A malfunction? Heh—" Chen Yuan chuckled lightly, having already confirmed the other party's identity after hearing the name.
"Interesting. I actually stumbled upon the same thing that happened to Luo Feng in the original story, and it was the same assassin."
After confirming the visitor's name, Chen Yuan immediately retrieved the person's identity from his memories—an assassin from an alien race, whose inner world contained an immortal god of fire.
In the original story, this assassin caused Luo Feng a great loss, especially due to the immortal god hidden within the assassin's body. Luo Feng was even forced to use the Golden Horned Beast to fight in order to barely kill the assassin.
However, Chen Yuan could only say that the other side was being delusional to think they could defeat him with such a lineup.
"No wonder, after all, I have never shown my true strength in this identity. The alien races still think I am just an ordinary domain lord. Sending an immortal to assassinate me is already giving me too much credit."
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly, "Unfortunately, this level of assassination is just easy prey for me."
After confirming the other party's identity, Chen Yuan was no longer in a hurry and continued to leisurely select Zerg host bodies.
About ten seconds later, the lean man, Kosel, finally stopped in front of the three.
"Kosel? What are you doing here?" One of the men in white robes asked, puzzled as to why the other had stopped. "Is the equipment here broken, and you're here to fix it?"
"Inspection? Hahaha—"
Kossler seemed surprised that his colleague was so naive. He had come here at the risk of being exposed, didn't they have any suspicions at all?
However, this is indeed an excellent opportunity.
"That's right, I'm here to inspect the equipment."
Kosel answered with a smile, and at the same time suddenly made a move, instantly destroying the nearby surveillance equipment. A battle sword then appeared in his hand.
The wolf slashed fiercely at the two men in white robes.
However, his strike failed—not because the two white-robed men dodged it, but because the assassin had fallen under Chen Yuan's mind control.
"It seems they have ill intentions. If I hadn't intervened, you would all be dead by now."
Chen Yuan looked at the two white-robed men who were still in shock and smiled faintly.
