"Has the explosion ended?"
"No... he controlled the explosion... that's the only possibility." Yuri muttered.
"He can control that violent energy?" A subordinate looked at Yuri in astonishnt, "But if he can control it, why did this happen?"
"Because until a few seconds ago, he didn't have this ability..." Yuri shook his head, "Though it's hard for to believe, he actually managed to devour and digest Kui Niu's ability in such a short ti, and made it his own."
"Commander... are you saying... that he acquired Kui Niu's ability in such a short ti, and controlled the energy storm?!" The subordinate's mouth dropped open in shock.
"What else could it be? We both saw the last reading from the monitoring terminal before it was destroyed, do you think under normal circumstances, an energy storm of this magnitude would calm down so quickly?"
"What should we do now?" the subordinate asked again, "The entire containnt room is severely deford, all kinds of chanical components have lted... the only way to open it now is probably with a laser cutter... Do you think the person inside can co out on his own?"
"I don't know..." Yuri shook his head, "Let's wait first, at least, until the temperature of the internal structure drops to normal levels, before starting cutting operations..."

1,800 kiloters away from Chunming City, in Tianfu City, at the Mysterious Creature Research Institute.
Yang Qi, who had just finished a routine eting, stretched. She looked up and glanced at the conference room, where she was the only one left, and at the docunts spread all over the table, and a sense of indescribable exhaustion flooded her heart.
The drugs could suppress physical and ntal fatigue, but psychological exhaustion could not be eliminated.
Not to ntion that Yang Qi had developed a resistance to these drugs—these powerful stimulants, given to a sleepy person, could make him so excited he would jump up and do military exercises in sub-zero temperatures; but now, even after taking a double dose, they could only keep Yang Qi's attention for a few dozen minutes.
Even in a sitting position, Yang Qi's heart rate spiked to over 130. She turned her head to the window on one side, her reflection in the glass showed a pale and haggard face, heavy dark circles under lifeless eyes that perfectly embodied the expression "dead fish eyes"... Yang Qi felt that if she kept going like this, she might really turn into a dead fish.
That guy Sun Hang, always complaining that he might drop dead suddenly... just wonder if he'd be sad if that really happened to ?
Or would that guy laugh and dance on my grave, and after everything, ask the photo on the tombstone, "Will you stay up all night again next life?"
Just thinking about that guy makes mad... no idea how he's doing over there in Chunming City, no news whatsoever from him.
Maybe there were ssages... but I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to check...
Yang Qi tried to steady her breathing, hoping to lower her racing heart rate a bit... She knew she should go rest imdiately, but she also realized that once that tight string suddenly loosened, she'd probably sleep until the final operation began... and might not even wake up.
To be precise, that's not called sleeping, it's called passing out.
Yang Qi fished out a pill bottle from her coat pocket, but there was no sound of pills rattling against the walls inside—she paused for a mont, rembering that she'd taken the last two pills the previous ti, and had ant to go to the logistics departnt for another bottle, but the eting made her forget.
"In such poor condition... hopefully I didn't overlook anything." Yang Qi muttered to herself, "This is okay... but if it's sothing related to the pesticide plan, then it's trouble..."
At this mont, the eting room door slamd open with a "bang," and Song Yarong ran in excitedly, saying to Yang Qi, "It's a success! I did it!"
"What succeeded? tic reverse engineering?" Yang Qi was taken aback and quickly asked.
"Are you so delirious from overwork? How can tic reverse engineering be done so quickly?" Song Yarong said, "I ant the armor prototype I ntioned at yesterday's eting is a success! Don't you rember? I told you about it just two hours ago."
"I..." Yang Qi recalled, it seed there really was such a thing. But right now, all her thoughts were on tic reverse engineering and preventing Chira 17's infiltration sabotages, so she hadn't paid much attention to Song Yarong's proposal.
"Look, here's the test video!" Song Yarong placed a tablet on the table.
On screen was a humanoid armor, its front end featuring an aerodynamically perfect fluid shape, and its back filled with various sizes of rocket thrusters—the longest of which exceeded three ters, making it look not like there were rockets attached to a person, but a person attached to the front of a bunch of rockets.
"Considering the sample collection operations before, I believe the Hunters need a vehicle fast enough to break through Chira 17's energy flow barrier." Song Yarong spoke quickly, "This armor's main body is forged from second-generation Gamma Alloy, extrely strong, ensuring it won't disintegrate at high speeds, and these thruster sets enable the wearer to achieve speeds of up to Mach 5 in near-ground flight... Based on the footage captured by the cara Sun Hang carried and data from surviving drones, calculations show that at such speeds, Chira 17's energy flows can't lock onto a target."
"The greatest challenge in creating the armor was how to maintain stability at high speeds... Initially, I considered using stabilizing wings like those on a fighter jet and vector thrusters, but the forr increases the target size, and the latter loses so thrust... do you know how I finally solved it?" Song Yarong continued.
"How did you solve it?"
"With Zhong Ling's help, I extracted part of the s from the 'Overlord,' using them to create a 'wind stabilizing device,' which instantly solidifies the surrounding air to form an invisible track around the armor... though it looks like it's freely flying, in fact, it's a super-fast rail vehicle!"
"But, there's one issue you seem to have overlooked." Yang Qi frowned, "At Mach 5... have you considered the wearer's tolerance? Even wearing anti-G suits, it could be difficult..."
"Hey, from the start, I said this thing was designed for Mysterious Creature Hunters... the wearer has to be one of those physically enhanced hunters... like Sun Hang, he can definitely handle the G-force generated when this thing moves. Even without an anti-G suit, it's no problem."
"How can you be so sure he's up to it?"
"Hehe." Song Yarong chuckled, "Can you guess who tested the armor?"
Yang Qi looked at the prototype on screen again, from the shape and size, it seed to be female armor...
"Don't tell it's... you?"
"Ha, you got it right!" Song Yarong laughed, "During the test, I only wore an ordinary anti-G suit, and aside from feeling a bit dizzy, there were no issues at all!"
