Since Wang Shaojie left...

He kept fiddling with the Soul Chain in his hand, his expression one of surprise and uncertainty.

"Brother Chen, can you even do something like this?"

He is a man of few words.

Liu Chen still remembers him from before; he was a very sunny and cheerful person who also liked to help others.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to help him when he was isolated and helpless in the Liu family.

It was that insignificant act of kindness that allowed Liu Chen to barely survive that night.

Otherwise, they would probably starve to death!

Thinking about it carefully, he really had many near-death experiences at the Liu family.

Yet, despite not being able to survive, they all stubbornly survived thanks to their hatred for the Liu family.

Interrupted from his reverie, Liu Chen curled his lips into a smile.

"What did you say?"

Wang Shaojie squeezed the soul chain and said with some surprise.

"How did you manage to control those robots? Was it simply through mental control?"

This puzzled not only him, but everyone else as well; the battlefield situation was changing too quickly.

The appearance of cyborgs and mechs equipped with pulse cannons briefly disrupted the vengeful spirits' offensive.

Less than three seconds later, Liu Chen released the Human Emperor Banner, which he then used to enhance his spiritual power.

Those mechanically modified soldiers all obeyed Liu Chen's orders.

Although cultivators can rely on their powerful soul force to forcibly control other creatures.

However, controlling hundreds of people at once is quite difficult.

Liu Chen said, as if it were commonplace.

"Yes, it's just simple mental control."

After those mech warriors appeared, he released all his mental energy, and with the blessing of the Emperor's Banner, he was able to further enhance his power.

Those cyborgs appeared to have powerful physical bodies and incredibly powerful energy conversion cannons.

In reality, they are soulless walking corpses, no different from the lowest-level alien beasts.

Li Tian put his arm around Wang Shaojie's shoulder and explained with a hint of helplessness.

"Brother Chen's mental strength is so much stronger than ours, controlling hundreds of people in one go shouldn't be difficult for him!"

While this may be surprising, it's actually quite normal.

Compared to those with superpowers, cultivators have far more methods at their disposal.

Wang Shaojie wasn't ignorant of this.

He glanced at Lin Yurou and said meaningfully.

"But just like Yu Rou, people with superpowers also have mental abilities, right?"

Could it be that the cyborgs developed by the Superpowered Individuals Guild have no means of defending against mental attacks?

"If they've set up defenses against mental attacks, then even if Brother Chen is incredibly powerful, he wouldn't be able to break through those defenses in one go and then control hundreds of people."

The Superpowered Guild has been secretly operating for many years in order to modify humans.

There was no reason for it, yet it left such a fatal flaw.

Keep in mind that this was a mechanical army that had been painstakingly built over decades.

If it were to fall into the hands of others, wouldn't all the research be rendered useless?

Now, Li Tian didn't know how to explain it either.

This vulnerability is indeed very significant.

But after asking the question, Wang Shaojie realized he was worrying too much.

Although Liu Chen treated them as his own people.

But there are some things they shouldn't ask, and they really shouldn't meddle.

Fortunately, Liu Chen didn't seem to care, and a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips.

"The mental power methods that superpowered individuals use are merely the crudest forms of application."

They did indeed install equipment to defend against mental energy.

However, it's not very useful to us.

"If you've just thought of using mental power, then the few of you working together can also control the cyborgs."

A defensive mental energy chip developed by the Superpowered Guild.

Simply put, it's similar to rough armor.

It can withstand the slashes of a fine steel sword, but it is completely unable to defend against the even finer silver needles.

The group walked and talked until they arrived at the Home Inn restaurant in the city center.

This is their first appearance in the public eye.

Liu Chen stopped hiding and openly ordered several dishes.

The group of people sat down in the private room.

The hotel owner was extremely excited to see Liu Chen arrive in person.

He kept instructing his subordinates to take good care of Liu Chen.

The mere fact that Liu Chen has dined here is a tremendous honor and the best form of publicity.

Li Tian smacked his lips and said with considerable emotion.

"Being a celebrity is great!"

"A good reputation can be a good thing or a bad thing, so it's best not to take it too seriously."

Liu Chen didn't care much about such things.

As long as she can gain merit, that's enough. What people think of her is not so important!

The reason I appeared in public today is because I could no longer hide it.

Moreover, the righteous must defeat the superpowered guild in order to save the modified humans.

For those advocating for justice, this was the perfect form of propaganda.

As for Liu Chen's reputation, it will likely improve to some extent after this incident.

Those who dislike him will still dislike him.

Lin Yurou ate her food in small bites, listening silently to the conversation of the group.

In fact, she couldn't understand the reasons behind many of the things Liu Chen did.

This includes Liu Chen bringing them to dinner.

Putting everything else aside, Li Tian and his group are spies.

Even after evolving into a red-clothed vengeful ghost and becoming materialized, it still doesn't need to eat at all.

As for Liu Chen, he had already abstained from grains long ago during the Golden Core stage.

She also found the golden objects surrounding Brother Chen quite novel.
