Now reading: Chapter 519 - 389: No Other Choice from Starting Cultivation in Wasteland, a Sci-fi novel by Chen Fengxiao.

Qu Jianlei traveled through to this world, and it’s been over twenty years, during which he has t many powerful individuals.

These powerful guys are not all brainless; many are quite smart, as cultivation also requires comprehension.

But without exception, they all possess the qualities of the strong, which include being quite willful and impulsive.

Soone like Qu Jianlei, who is extrely low-key and only erupts when absolutely necessary, is very rare.

Granny Jia might count as half, but the old lady has just lived transparently.

However, the feeling Steve gives Qu Jianlei is completely different.

This guy is truly capable of enduring and has a very keen perception. Once a decision is made, he acts without hesitation.

Just like a snake lurking in the dark, you never know when it will suddenly strike with deadly force.

Such a person is okay to be friends with, but as an opponent, it’s not pleasing at all.

His way of doing things is similar to so notorious individual, but that person doesn’t like others doing things this way.

To Qu Jianlei, acting this way in the entire empire, having just one person do it is enough.

He’s already made up his mind that if conditions permit, it doesn’t matter if he has to stay here for several days and nights.

Such a terrifying opponent, as long as he can be eliminated, is worth it.

As for killing a Supre in broad daylight in front of everyone, it would cause a huge sensation, and he might have to flee again?

Qu Jianlei believes this is a price he can completely afford—after all, he has more than one fake identity.

What he cares more about is that if he acts during the day, whether or not he can eliminate Steve, escaping safely is not easy.

He has considered many plans, but it’s a bit regretful that Steve didn’t act as he expected.

The fourth spiritual wave passed by, and about a minute later, a breath of air fluctuated, and a figure appeared on the fourth floor of Wangjiang Tower.

Though it’s called Wangjiang Tower, it only has four stories, and the figure was on the highest floor.

Then, this person walked to a floor-standing telescope, put his eyes to it, and looked around.

This was set up by the owner of Wangjiang Tower for better viewing of the scenery.

Later, it beca a small viewing platform, and the telescope beca equipnt for tourists to enjoy the view.

The telescope is wide-angle, with more than one lens, and with a small adjustnt angle, you can see 360 degrees.

In other words, if you replace it with a night vision lens, it becos a comprehensive night vision device.

Qu Jianlei was a bit slightly surprised, this Steve... I just said you were cautious, and now you’re acting rashly?

But the night vision device is basically ineffective against him.

He has been A-level for a long ti and has a deeper understanding of various attributes.

When he performs techniques, it often causes elental fluctuations, but his body’s affinity is quite strong.

What is affinity? Take the Ice Attribute as a simple example; an Awakened with this physique usually isn’t afraid of severe cold.

If it’s an A-level Ice Attribute, in the middle of sumr, they can maintain a low surface body temperature without causing elental waves.

In other words, Qu Jianlei can also control his body temperature well, without needing extra finger techniques.

However, now that he’s hidden in the shade, he’s using more of his Wood Attribute affinity.

This allows him to better camouflage himself; in broad daylight, people might see him and mistake him for the trees.

Combined with Spiritual Attribute, his current camouflage ability is quite strong.

With the slightest ntal adjustnt, tweaking his body temperature, he’s not worried about being detected by the other side.

——If you were using perception, I’d have to be cautious, but using the night vision device... there’s no pressure at all.

In fact, he’s more concerned now about why Steve suddenly got bolder.

He’s very certain that the figure who climbed to the fourth floor is Steve.

Aside from the water attribute, just the faint pressure emanated during observation indicates it’s far more than A-level.

This pressure is also very subtle, and if an average A-level isn’t paying attention, it’s unlikely to notice it.

This isn’t intentional on Steve’s part, but since he wants to observe the surroundings, he’s definitely distinguishing and using his brain.

In other words, the reason Qu Jianlei couldn’t observe him before was that he was basically in a self-isolated or Turtle Breath state.

In such a state, he could still sense slight energy fluctuations, truly deserving the title of "alert".

Qu Jianlei dared not look directly at the other, only using the corner of his eye to observe, pondering the other’s actions quietly in his heart.

He has many guesses, but at such sensitive tis, he can’t afford to be subjective; if his guesses are wrong, the consequences would be dire.

So what he can do is watch coldly from the sidelines.

At this mont, on the fourth floor, Steve also felt a slight sense of doubt: Why couldn’t he find the person?

Actually, last night at the start, he was in Wangjiang Tower for cultivation.

But by midnight, he inexplicably felt a little uneasy, always feeling that sothing bad was going to happen.

A Supre’s foreknowledge of danger is stronger than an A-level, and he’s particularly sensitive to crises.

However, he wasn’t sure where the crisis ca from, nor did he know if it might affect him personally.

In this situation, disturbing the rest of those four A-levels was basically impossible.

This isn’t because he lacks authority but within the Quantum Team, he’s famously sensitive.

The troubling thing is that his premonition of crises is sotis not that accurate.

This has led to so secretly laughing at him for being timid within the Quantum Team.

Those not strong enough don’t dare gossip openly, but certain references aren’t flattering either.

"Our rather cautious supre" — mind you, what do you care about being cautious?

Steve isn’t petty and doesn’t care who gossips about him — it’s the other supres who mock him for being cautious.

I’m just cautious, who can bla ? Those who aren’t cautious deserve their own misfortunes!

Later, he still did things his own way, but expecting him to warn others again is just wishful thinking.

Steve contemplated for a mont, adjusted his mindset, and then entered the Turtle Breath state.

But entering the Turtle Breath state didn’t calm his mind; instead, over ti, he beca increasingly anxious.

At least his perception ability wasn’t significantly affected while in Turtle Breath.

That’s why he chose to live at Wangjiang Tower; besides being close to water, the air is also dense with moisture from night to dawn.

With a Water Attribute, his affinity with water elents is strong, and the moisture helps him detect so fluctuations.

The extrely slight energy fluctuation just now had alard him.

In this aspect, Steve is indeed stronger than Qu Jianlei, instantly judging the other’s cultivation level — A-level!

An A-level superpower warrior wandering by Wangjiang Tower late at night instead of sleeping seems problematic.

That’s why he cautiously probed three tis and, after finding nothing, suddenly exerted greater perception.

His reaction was purely from earlier instability and the inexplicable A-level appearance.

Steve’s cautiousness was instinctive, a result of years of habit.

He didn’t believe that on Hope No.2 Star, especially in the largest city Green Water, anyone would dare act against him publicly.

Especially since the fourth perception scan confird no threats nearby.

The A-level warrior, he didn’t know where they went, but he didn’t perceive them.

Steve’s spiritual perception range is vast, and he’s quite confident, not believing anyone could escape his perception.

After finding no one, he thought for a mont and went up to the fourth floor.

In his mind, after perceiving, his safety is assured during this period.

Soone trying to infiltrate would still need significant ti — not only can’t their cultivation be low, but their speed shouldn’t be too fast either.

As long as their moves are big, they can’t escape his perception.

So he openly used the telescope to observe a bit.

To say the landlord of Wangjiang Tower is quite interesting, initially equipped the telescope with various lenses for scenic views.

Just by pressing a switch, the lenses can switch automatically.

Not sure why that guy installed a night vision device, maybe to see the river at night?

Anyway, it was convenient for Steve; he didn’t need to make any changes, just stand there and use it.

Steve wasn’t using this night vision device for the first ti; he even had so understanding of the surrounding residents.

After scanning around, sure enough, he didn’t find anything unusual.

Then, for so reason, his sense of unease retreated a bit.

Actually, it was because Qu Jianlei had decided not to rush, and waiting a few days or nights didn’t matter.

Such urgent actions, once slowed, naturally have a slight adjustnt in the aura.

Regrettably, for such mysterious changes, not even Steve nor Qu Jianlei himself was aware.

The perplexed supre then fell into two conflicting emotions.

One emotion told him that although the palpitations had eased slightly, there was still so potential danger.

The other emotion reminded him it might truly be overthinking — who could trouble you on Star No. 2?

Steve used the night vision device again, but still, nothing was found.

Mainly because dawn was breaking, and the night vision device’s effect was diminishing.

Then he thought: alright, let’s not guess wildly, don’t I have four A-level warriors under ?

Steve truly wasn’t going to rashly warn others again, but he could still have the four investigate the surroundings.

His mission was to support the center, but as a supre, isn’t it normal to assign A-levels to do so tasks?

Besides, now is the perfect ti, isn’t it... since it’s getting light?

So he raised his wrist and began to call an A-level warrior of the Quantum Team.

The call was sent instantly, and then Steve frowned.

How co near here... there’s a strange fluctuation?

Following that perception, he turned his head and vaguely saw a pair of cold eyes in the swirling white mist.

"This is..."
