The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 225: A Brand New Superweapon

Chapter 225: A Brand New Superweapon

Yuri's attack ultimately failed to take down Lance. However, a trace of blood appeared at the corner of Lance's mouth, indicating that the psychic impact had inflicted some injuries on him.

"Such formidable psychic power. No wonder someone once said that we must find a way to obtain psychic technology. Only civilizations with psychic technology can reach greater heights." Lance wiped away the blood from his mouth, his face devoid of a smile.

Yuri fell short of victory, and his full-powered strike didn't kill Lance; it only managed to injure him. Considering Lance's endurance, even if Su Chen were to use a Superweapon, it might not be enough to kill him.

The clothing Lance wore possessed an incredibly strong defense against psychic power.

Yuri had lost all his strength and lay on the ground, but his eyes were filled with coldness. It was their own weakness that allowed Commander to face the threat from Lance. They had failed in their duty!

This sentiment was shared by all Red Alert units. Everything they possessed was bestowed by Commander, yet they were unable to protect Commander. A strong sense of shame and anger filled their hearts.

Lance approached Su Chen step by step, and Su Chen calmly stared back at him without taking a step back.

"You are quite impressive, performing so remarkably in front of me, Lance. If it weren't to learn the greatest secret of the Quillu civilization, I wouldn't want to kill you like this," Lance expressed a regretful expression.

A hint of vigilance filled Lance's heart as Yuri's attack had threatened his life, and Su Chen's words only heightened his wariness.

He knew he couldn't give Su Chen any time and must kill him!

Thus, Lance decisively made his move, but it was already too late.

"Mental Controller 4.0, activate!"

Rewinding time to one minute ago, Su Chen learned from Yuri that Lance's defense against psychic power was weakest. This was the only power capable of killing Lance.

However, even Yuri couldn't accomplish it. Even if Su Chen possessed power on par with Yuri, at best, it would make Lance cough up blood but wouldn't be enough to kill him. So what should he do?

In that moment, an idea sparked in Su Chen's mind.

After all, the Mental Controller was Yuri's camp's Superweapon, and the upgraded psychic technology Su Chen obtained was the core technology of Yuri's camp.

Almost all units in Yuri's camp were related to psychic technology, giving rise to Su Chen's idea.

He asked the System directly about the changes that upgraded psychic technology would bring to the Mental Controller.

The System informed him that with the assistance of Psychic Technology 4.0, all units related to psychic technology in Yuri's camp received improvements in various aspects, including the Superweapon, Mental Controller.

Without the upgraded psychic technology, it would be nearly impossible for Yuri to harm Lance.

The original Mental Controller's power was enough to eliminate almost all Eighth Tier powerhouses, but it fell a bit short against Lance, who was at the Ninth Tier.

However, with the new upgraded psychic technology, the current Mental Controller was no longer comparable to its previous version.

According to the System's naming, Su Chen straightforwardly referred to it as Mental Controller 4.0. The crucial point was that this brand-new Mental Controller could compress its power into a single point and unleash its full force.

Previously, the Mental Controller was a group-oriented Superweapon, but the upgraded version not only possessed its original functionality but could also focus its full power on individual targets.

Imagine one person enduring the full force of a Superweapon. It was a terrifying prospect.

Lance, now faced with pressures he shouldn't be experiencing, initially just groaned. But soon, he let out a miserable scream. There was no change in his physical body, but if someone could see into his mind, they would discover that his consciousness was fading away.

The Mental Controller created a powerful psychic shockwave, much stronger than what Yuri could generate. It directly caused Lance's mind to collapse, turning him into a vegetable.

Lance stood motionless, and the voice of the System suddenly appeared, "Congratulations, Master, on completing the mission. The reward has been issued."

Su Chen saw that his energy had suddenly increased by ten million. A smile appeared on his face.

This crisis was undoubtedly the most significant, but correspondingly, the rewards were also great.

Not only did he obtain information about the Quillu civilization and learn about the Atlantis civilization, but most importantly, he killed Lance, receiving a reward of ten million energy and a chance to upgrade a weapon.

Su Chen realized that obtaining a chance to upgrade a weapon might not be easy. He needed to use this opportunity cautiously.

Although Lance was dead, his body remained. Su Chen intended to have Yun Ru conduct research on it, especially the clothing Lance wore. It was an armor capable of resisting psychic power. If it could be mass-produced, it would provide him with defense against individuals who could use psychic technology in the future.

"Psychic technology has been upgraded to 4.0, and for now, it shouldn't require further upgrades. I must currently upgrade a weapon that can be directly used," Su Chen pondered.

He had observed the three major factions of Red Alert, or rather, the four major factions, as one of the factions emerged within Red Alert.

Among these four factions, Yuri's faction was the most unique. Psychic technology made them somewhat lacking in conventional weaponry, but in terms of mental control, they were absolute powerhouses.

Since this upgrade opportunity could only be used on weapons, it was no longer useful for units.

The naval forces were immediately excluded. They were currently not needed for combating the Mutant Beasts on land. As for the air force, the most representative weapon was naturally the Kirov Airship, with its formidable bombing capabilities.

However, the Kirov Airship was too slow and easily became a target. It required a large number of fighter aircraft to protect it from being shot down.

Su Chen believed that even with one upgrade, the speed of the Kirov Airship couldn't surpass that of a Fighter Jet unless he upgraded it three times, as he did before.

In that case, it would lack cost-effectiveness.

The Kirov Airship was unsuitable, and the Fighter Jet was barely satisfactory. Su Chen was considering whether to upgrade the armed Helicopters.

Helicopters were the units he possessed the most in the air. They were incredibly useful in combat and transportation. He believed they would become even stronger after the upgrade.

Just as Su Chen was preparing to select the armed Helicopter, his eyes inadvertently caught sight of a pattern that left him momentarily stunned—it was a very unfamiliar pattern.

"How did I miss such a good weapon?"
