Chapter 561 - Time Machine



Chapter 561: Time Machine

“Chen Zhankui, Chen Shengtian, Chen Zhuowei, Chen Fengxi, Chen Zihan…”

As Chen Chen spoke mercilessly, one by one, the members of the Chen family, whose bodies had gone limp, were dragged out like dead dogs by the Black Knights.

“Chen Zhankui, to sell your goods to the forces of the Joint Resistance Army, you wantonly killed off competitors. What a heinous crime, the death penalty!

“Chen Shengtian, as the director of the Military Aircraft Department, you’ve embezzled military salaries, amounting to tens of millions of the Joint Resistance Army’s currency, causing many soldiers to freeze to death. Death penalty!

“Chen Zhuowei, death penalty!

“Chen Fengxi, you raped women frequently, death penalty!

“Chen Zihan, you covered up the crime for your brother and killed many citizens out of jealousy. Death penalty, to be executed immediately!”

Chen Chen’s voice was like the commanding voice of Hades. Every time he called out a name, a Black Knight rushed forward, dragged that person out of the Chen family members, and then killed the individual on the spot like slaughtering a pig!

“No, don’t kill my daughter!”

However, when the two Black Knights dragged forth a young girl with a beautiful face, a middle-aged woman on the side immediately broke down. She wailed and hugged her daughter, then suddenly leaned down and kept kowtowing to Chen Chen, not even noticing when there was bleeding on her forehead. “Grandpa Chen Chen, Grandpa Chen Chen, I beg you, don’t kill Han’er, she’s your great-granddaughter!”

“Pfff!”

Still, the Black Knights on both sides did not care at all. One of them directly took up the handle of a gun and hit the woman’s head severely. At once, the woman fell on the ground silently and a large pool of blood flowed out from under her…

“Mom!”

The beautiful girl suddenly let out a heart-piercing cry.

The two Black Knights continued to grab the girl’s hair and drag her down the podium.

At this time, the clearing was already in a mess. Endless blood and white brain tissue were mixed together and several corpses had heads that exploded. The girl was dragged here and then one of the Black Knights aimed at the girl’s head.

At this time, the girl’s body was trembling violently. A terrified gleam shone in her eyes and she murmured unconsciously, “I want to go home…”

“Bang!”

Her headless body dropped down!

At this time, the entire venue had become tense and silent.

The masses in the stands were no longer in an uproar. Even those who were full of hatred for the Chen family were completely shocked by Chen Chen’s merciless killing. This scene was now deeply imprinted in their minds and became an indelible sight.

Gradually, the corpses were accumulated. More than two hundred corpses had been heaped up under the rostrum. A breeze swirled by and the strong smell of blood diffused and filled the entire stadium.

In the stands, many people were already vomiting.

Nonetheless, Chen Chen watched all this with a cool expression. He lowered his head and looked at the last person on the death penalty list. That person was none other than his brother, Chen Zeyu.

“Chen Zeyu… Death penalty!”

Chen Chen spoke slowly, spitting out the last few words.

Chen Zeyu closed his eyes in anguish. His head had become covered with white hair in one night and he looked completely different from the young Chen Chen on the podium at this time.

Now, Chen Zeyu had watched as his children and grandchildren were slaughtered wantonly but he could not do anything. A rush of immense resentment filled his heart.

Watching the two Black Knights coming forward, Chen Zeyu’s eyes flashed madly and he suddenly screamed, “Chen Chen, I curse you!”

“May you be lonely forever, abandoned by your wife and children!

“May you die a long, miserable death after a long, miserable life!”

While Chen Zeyu unleashed a heartrending roar, he was dragged to the corpse pile by the Black Knight but he still glared at Chen Chen with eager hatred. “Chen Chen, you’ll die a miserable death!!!”

“Bang…”

Chen Zeyu’s bitter voice was cut off abruptly.

As if he was a little tired, Chen Chen tossed the list in his hand to a clerk on the side. The clerk quivered all over and caught the list shakily, giving Chen Chen a frightened glance.

Seeing Chen Chen nod, he stammered, “All those on the death penalty list have been executed. Next, those who won’t receive the death penalty…”

As the clerk said, he began to read out the names and the sentences the prisoners should receive. These sentences ranged from one year to one hundred years, and those with more than one hundred years were life imprisonment.

After the entire afternoon had passed, finally, the public trial assembly came to an end. This also represented that Chen Chen was officially stationed in Blacklight City as the lord of the city.

As for those positions that had been vacated, Chen Chen asked X-112 to start recruiting for people throughout the city to make good use of their capabilities. Surely, after having seen this scene where the Chen family, who was once so lofty, had fallen off their pedestals, these people would not dare to stuff their own pockets for decades.

On the following day, the other four forces of the Joint Resistance Army began to tentatively contact Chen Chen. Chen Chen harbored no other intentions here. He told them that the previous offensive and defensive alliance was still in force, but when they asked him questions about his psionic abilities, he avoided the topic.

A few days later, Chen Chen went to sleep again under the strict protection of the Black Knights.

When Chen Chen regained consciousness, he had returned to reality again.

“Sir Godfather.”

X appeared beside Chen Chen’s bed. “You’ve been sleeping for about a week. Have you gained anything in that parallel dimension?”

“More or less.”

Chen Chen nodded. “I regained control of Blacklight City. In addition to that, I’ve learned new uses of psionic energy.”

With that, Chen Chen talked to Little X about transforming himself into the G-virus form again and went to the laboratory to transform himself.

After this transformation, several tentacles appeared on Chen Chen’s hands again. These tentacles seemed to grow from the palms and they could be retracted in a controlled manner.

Even in this state of transformation, Chen Chen could still suck the flesh and blood of his prey. After he devoured a few domestic pigs that had been prepared, when he transformed back again, his body remained healthy and lost a great amount of fat.

“This is a complete transformation ability.”

Little X looked delighted and surprised. “This isn’t only the power of the G-virus but more importantly, the power derived from psionic energy. It’s incredible. Although this psionic energy isn’t as capable of manipulating electromagnetic force as Field energy, its performance in self-preservation exceeds that of Field energy.”

“Indeed, psionic energy and Field energy can be said to have their own strengths.”

Chen Chen nodded. “The most terrifying thing is that I can portion out a minute part of the power and bury a psionic seed in others so that they can obtain a kind of secondary psionic power. If I die later, I’ll be able to be reborn in their body.”

“Isn’t this an imitation of the Consciousness Stealer?”

Little X was immediately surprised. “It’s no wonder that Consciousness Stealers can infect human spirits and be resurrected out of human corpses. Now you’re practically a replica of the Consciousness Stealer and moreover, you’re even stronger!”

“This isn’t the time to talk about these.”

Chen Chen shook his head. “I’m considering whether I want to transfer my power from reality to completely solve the trouble of the Consciousness Stealer.”

“Can it be done?”

Little X was a little doubtful. “If we could go up against that Consciousness Stealer, that world wouldn’t have appeared in the first place.

“Despite this, we were only defeated by the Consciousness Stealer because we were caught off guard that time.”

Chen Chen thought for a while and said, “If I were not the first to be infected, humans wouldn’t have been so passive. If we think about it carefully, we still have a lot of trump cards that we haven’t used.”

“Then how do we get to that dimension?”

Little X asked again, her eyes spinning. She figured it out immediately after seeing Chen Chen’s smiling eyes and laughed. “By using Terminator!”

“Yes, Terminator!”

Chen Chen nodded. “If there are any props in all of science fiction cinema that can carry out cross-dimension teleportation, it’s the time machine in Terminator.”

Chen Chen had thought about the teleportation device he should use. Only “quantum mechanics” and “M-theory” could resolve the so-called “grandmother’s paradox” and the reason for this was due to the existence of parallel universes.

The entire universe was diversified and the multiverse itself was composed of countless parallel universes while parallel universes branched out from a certain original universe and were both similar and different from the original universe.

All the movie dimensions accessed by Chen Chen through the USB drive were parallel universes. This had been confirmed. In other words, the time machine of the Terminator dimension did not send people back to the past but instead sent people to a parallel universe that was almost the same as the original universe.

The timeline of a parallel universe was different from reality, being either in the past or the future, which resolved the grandmother’s paradox. Namely, the time teleportation device of the Terminator dimension had the ability to transport people to parallel worlds.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen immediately got up and went to the charging room. After getting the USB flash drive, he opened it with a laptop and dragged the movie Terminator Genisys into it.

Terminator Genisys connected the first and second movies, but the plot was a bit complicated and many people could not understand it. Aside from the plot, the true form of the time machine in this movie was revealed for the first time. It was a huge device whose size was comparable to a hill. After the humans broke into the Skynet headquarters, they happened to see T-800 being teleported back to the past to assassinate Connor’s mother.

However, more than one time machine appeared in the movie. In the middle of the movie, Connor’s mother and T-850 made another time machine device together. This device was much smaller. The only thing it lacked was a very powerful chip.

Still, this problem was solved by removing a chip from a T-800.

Moreover, when the two people were working together to make the time machine, the year was 1984. That was to say, if the production technology of this manual version of the time machine could be obtained, Chen Chen was also fully capable of replicating it.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen waited no longer. He directly opened the movie in the USB flash drive, chose the first mode of the USB flash drive, and directly extracted the time teleportation device.

“Boom!”

With a soft thud, a device appeared in front of Chen Chen. It was rough in workmanship and looked like a round podium.

This round podium had exposed wires, rough cuts, and no outer shell structure, so the parts inside were directly exposed to the air.

No one would believe that just such a simple device could allow people to travel through time and space and reach another parallel universe.

As for the missing chip, it was not a problem. Chen Chen could mass-produce the T-800 chip. He would not have to extract another T-800 just to source the chip.

However…

Little X came up skipping. She fiddled with the device in doubt, set the timer to 378 years later, and then looked at Chen Chen with a face of disbelief. “Is this all there is to it? Isn’t it too sloppy?”

“Of course not.”

Chen Chen shook his head. “With a device like this, who the h*ll knows where I’ll end up. I don’t dare to take this risk.”

“Then how do we get to the other space-time where you are?”

X asked suspiciously.

“By setting up another teleportation machine, of course.”

Chen Chen said instinctively, “Even the Gantz sphere from Gantz and the Ark from Doom need two point-to-point teleporters. I think the time machine from Terminator should be the same.

“Although this wasn’t shown in the movie, it can be seen from the generality of the teleportation in the movie that the teleportation’s destination is uncertain. So I think that if we want to teleport accurately, point-to-point teleportation is imperative.”

After speaking, Chen Chen looked at the time machine in front of him. “Take this device apart. I believe that upon disassembly, some useful data will be obtained. Even if I don’t understand the principles it uses, I can memorize these things by rote. Then I’ll go back to that world and assemble another time machine.”

Little X suddenly realized what Chen Chen had in mind.

Indeed, as long as this was the case, it was equivalent to the time machine existing in both worlds of Chen Chen. The forces under Blacklight Biotechnology could then reach the other world by teleporting there.

Therefore, their next task to take apart the time machine and use reverse engineering to analyze performance was handed over to Little X. Chen Chen took advantage of this opportunity to return home. He had been asleep for three months after defeating the Consciousness Stealer, which meant that he had not been home for more than three months. His parents must have been waiting anxiously for a long time.

Besides, Chen Chen was so eager to go home not only for the above reasons but also because of what he had felt in that world.

In that world, Chen Chen had failed to protect his parents and eventually caused them to die in the catastrophe.

One place was like heaven while the other was like hell. The different experiences of the two worlds caused Chen Chen to have mixed feelings and he cherished his time with his parents even more.

At the same time, it also inspired Chen Chen to formulate several sets of retreat plans in advance. If such a world-destroying event occurred in the future, Chen Chen’s parents would retreat to a certain safe place as soon as possible according to the plan, without Chen Chen having to worry.

As for where that safe place was, Chen Chen believed that Mars was one option and alternate dimensions were another.

In other words, Chen Chen must wipe out all dangers in the dimension where the Divine Fusion Empire was located and use it as his own backup base and also as a refuge.
