Chapter 646 377: I Want to See the Higher-ups

"What are superhumans?"

Zhao Rui asked with a frown.

"Huh? You don't know?"

The girl looked Zhao Rui up and down, seemingly lost in thought. After a moment, she shook her head and said,

"I don't know the specifics either. I heard they're genetically modified organisms. They can have partial avian genes, and some can even fly with invisible wings. You, however… you look strange."

"It doesn't seem like you have anything like that."

Hearing this, Zhao Rui gave a faint smile. A pair of transparent, thin wings suddenly sprouted from his back.

"You mean these?"

"Yes! So you really are a new human."

The girl waved at Zhao Rui and said, "I can't chat anymore. I need to call for backup. My Mecha is still at the bottom of the sea."

Zhao Rui nodded and moved a good distance away. Once he was out of the girl's sight, he hid himself in the clouds.

As for the wings on his back, they were merely a manifestation of his Dharma Aspect, not a true regeneration of his physical body.

He had been sitting cross-legged atop a cloud, quietly observing the changes below, for only a short time.

A colossal warship flew across the sky and slowly descended toward the girl's position.

At the same time, several towering Mecha Warriors flew out from the warship. Following the girl's directions, they shot into the sea.

In just a few moments, they lifted the Mecha that had crashed into the sea out of the water.

"Excellent! My Crimson Elite."

The girl clapped, jumping for joy. With an agile leap, she followed the Mecha into the warship.

Seeing these Mecha, Zhao Rui formed an assessment.

They were brimming with Energy, massive in size, and their combat power was significantly weaker than the Mecha of the Mechanical Empire from the Milky Way Galaxy near Blue Star. Still, they possessed a certain degree of fighting capability.

'I can't believe the Ancestral Star's technological civilization has developed so quickly in just over a hundred years.'

With a carefree smile, Zhao Rui flew toward the coastal metropolis.

The city was completely different from how it had been over a hundred years ago.

It had developed the futuristic, intelligent feel that a high-tech metropolis should have.

Cars were long gone, replaced by flying vehicles of all sizes that transported people and goods through the air.

Skyscrapers soared into the heavens, and the sky was dense with the traffic of flying vehicles.

Robots were everywhere, mingling with humans in a scene that looked particularly novel.

The outdoor mega-screens all displayed holographic images and virtual reality technology.

Zhao Rui flew into the city and walked up to a store. Before he could even ask a question, a series of urgent beeps rang out.

"Warning, warning. Illegal intrusion, illegal intrusion."

Zhao Rui froze for a second, then it hit him. 'This is the age of technology. The moment I show my face, my identity is bound to be instantly scanned and identified.'

'Oh well, I might as well go see the higher-ups.'

'There's no trace of my past life here anymore. There's no point in being nostalgic.'

In the ten-odd seconds he had stood still, several flying vehicles, their engines spitting flames, came to a halt in front of him.

Several dark, black muzzles extended from the front of the vehicles—clearly the barrels of thermal or light-based energy weapons.

"You're coming with us."

A virtual image projected out, presenting Zhao Rui with a series of law enforcement documents.

"I want to see your superiors!"

After speaking, Zhao Rui's figure flickered and vanished without a trace from before the flying vehicles.

But his words did not vanish with him.

Instead, they grew louder and spread further.

Soon, the entire planet could hear his voice.

"How is this sound signal being transmitted? Physical scans can't detect it at all."

That single shout sent every defense center on the planet into the highest state of alert.

They could hear the voice clearly but couldn't detect its source.

No matter what wavelength they used for information retrieval, they found nothing.

This situation stunned everyone.
