Chapter 1589: Completely Random?

Completely Random?

Burning steel fell roaring from the sky like meteors.

Every meteor was the wreckage of a fallen missile, and the firelight in the distance that illuminated the sky red indicated that several surrounding military districts had been reduced to ashes with just a raise of that white-clothed figure's hand... Those figures were instantly buried in the sea of fire, not even having the chance to wail and struggle.

How many American troops were stationed in those places? Thousands? Tens of thousands?

Yang Xiao didn't know, and he didn't want to know either.

At this time, his attention was already completely focused on the Army Research Laboratory below.

Dr. Wayne watched with his own eyes as the officer who had just been losing his temper at him was directly shot in the head, and then, staring with a pair of unbelievable pupils, fell heavily to the ground...

He was stunned. It wasn't that he wasn't afraid, but rather that seeing this extremely distorted scene before him, he subconsciously thought he was dreaming.

This world wasn't a damn sci-fi movie, how could there really be such a superhuman existence??

Steel and fire became the main theme of this former sanctuary of scientific research, and the culprit who caused everything slowly floated down from midair...

He lightly raised his hand, and a broken steel rebar next to him tied up a researcher in front of him who was scared limp, lifting him directly from the ground into midair.

That English mixed with an obvious Eastern accent rang out once more like the whisper of a demon:

"Where is the person who created the Extra-dimensional Wake Missile?!"

It was a black scientist wearing glasses. He screamed in terror, and upon hearing Yang Xiao's questioning, he immediately acted as if he had grasped a lifeline:

"It's... it's Dr. Wayne!!"

"Please, please don't kill me..."

Tears poured crazily from the black scientist's eye sockets. He looked at Yang Xiao pleadingly, constantly repeating this sentence, deeply afraid that the section of steel rebar in front of him would turn into a weapon that pierced his skull in the next moment.

Although the languages were different, everyone's reactions before death were the most real. Yang Xiao controlled himself not to look at those pleading eyes, because it would make him feel like he was truly a monster.

He directly tossed this black scientist aside, his eyes surging with auroras looking around:

"Who is Wayne?"

Everyone's gazes looked towards a figure also wearing a scientific research coat.

Yang Xiao's gaze also followed... It was an ordinary-looking white man. Beside him lay a military officer who had died with his eyes wide open. Scarlet blood dyed half of his scientific research coat red, and also left a shocking patch of black on his slightly messy hair.

It could be seen that Dr. Wayne was somewhat afraid, but he still calmed down as much as possible, took off his glasses with slightly trembling hands, and used the corner of his clothes to wipe away the bloodstains on them...

When he raised his head again, that figure resembling a Divine Being had already floated in front of him.

"It's me, I am Boileau Wayne," Wayne spoke hoarsely.

Yang Xiao's pupils, surging with auroras, quietly stared at Wayne. For some reason, he always felt that this face before him was somewhat familiar...

"Have I met you before?"

"Looking at the pattern on your research uniform, you should be a researcher from the Sub-Magnetic Research Institute?" Wayne glanced at the pattern on the edge of the chest pocket of Yang Xiao's uniform, his aged voice slowly sounding out,

"You might have participated in some world-class scientific events. Three years ago, at the World Science Forum held in Budapest, Hungary, I was one of the invited experts..."

Yang Xiao remembered.

He had indeed participated in the World Science Forum that year, only at that time, he was still just an academic newcomer burying his head in a research project. Logically speaking, he didn't even have the qualifications to participate in this forum... It was his mentor who conveniently brought him along when participating. That was also the closest he had ever been to the world's frontier science.

The scientist he could only look up to in the past had now appeared before his eyes again in this form... This made Yang Xiao's gaze somewhat complicated.

"I remember... I was very deeply impressed by your speech that time."

"You said that modern civilization is a civilization of science, a civilization without borders. It belongs to all humanity, and should benefit humanity..."

"But what about now? You are working for the American government, turning humanity's science into a tool for killing."

"You are too naive... Science is pure, but humans are not." Wayne shook his head.

"You should realize that when value becomes the standard for measuring everything, even the loftiest science is nothing more than a tool used to satisfy human nature... Science that cannot create profit doesn't even have the value of being born."

Wayne had calmed down at this time. He instead began to size up the Eastern youth before him, indescribable marvel flickering in his eyes:

"Aren't you also a tool?"

"It's just that I'm very curious, what exactly did they do to you to be able to endow you with such powerful strength? You... should be their most powerful weapon, right?"

Yang Xiao's expression darkened, "You're wrong, I'm not a tool, much less a weapon meant for slaughter!"

"Then what did you come for?"

"For humanity."

Wayne froze, and then actually started laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Yang Xiao's brow furrowed tighter and tighter.

"You, an Easterner, crossed continents and oceans to come here, destroyed America's top research institute, and even blew up so many military bases... And you're telling me this is for humanity?"

"No matter what you think, I know what my goal is!"

Yang Xiao didn't want to waste words with this person anymore. He directly raised a hand, and a steel rebar pierced straight through Dr. Wayne's shoulder, directly nailing him firmly to the wall behind him!

A flower of scarlet bloomed once more on Dr. Wayne's scientific research coat. He grabbed the steel rebar painfully with both hands, letting out bouts of wailing.

"Tell me, where is the detailed data of that nuclear weapon you dropped on Wushan Town? What is the waveband you used to open the alternate space? How can we replicate the exact same location?!" Yang Xiao's voice was as cold as frost.

A trace of bewilderment flashed across Dr. Wayne's face, which was distorted by severe pain. He stared blankly at Yang Xiao's extremely serious eyes, as if realizing something, and his pale lips twisted into an expression that was hard to tell whether it was a smile or a cry.

Yang Xiao raised his hand, and another steel rebar darted in front of Dr. Wayne's eyes. As long as Yang Xiao willed it, it could pierce his pupils.

Enduring the pain, Dr. Wayne spoke hoarsely:

"Waveband... Where is there any waveband?!"

"All the data we collected about that world is constantly changing! What do you think it is? A door that can be opened at any fixed point at will just by having a password? With our current technology, it's completely impossible to achieve!"

"The channels opened by all the missiles carrying the Extra-dimensional Wake are random! Completely random! Do you understand??"

"For every millimeter its explosion position deviates! For every millisecond it's delayed! The connected locations are worlds apart!"
