94: Stellar fragments and light cores!

“No!”

“Human, if you stop advancing, we can cooperate.”

“Or rather, we can make a deal, as long as you stop advancing!”

Seeing the laser disappear just a finger’s width from Li An, Red Queen’s voice immediately rang out again.

As an AI with intelligence no less than a human’s, Red Queen had clearly realized that she could no longer stop Li An, and thus proposed a new suggestion.

The laser corridor!

It was definitely a deadly weapon against ordinary people, but for Li An, who possessed a powerful physique and considerable strength, it seemed somewhat insufficient.

He didn’t need to dodge the laser attack; he could directly use brute force to cut off the laser’s trajectory.

Don’t lasers need to move through the walls on both sides of the corridor?

Well then, Li An would simply destroy the walls, preventing the laser from gliding through completely.

Even if a new laser could be generated from behind, it wouldn’t be able to threaten Li An, who was in the “wall-less zone.”

Red Queen had obviously realized this, which was why she hastily spoke, intending to negotiate with Li An.

From this behavior, Red Queen actually didn't violate her principles; she chose to make a deal with Li An to protect the core assets of the Umbrella Corporation.

“Oh?”

“Tell me more.”

At Red Queen’s suggestion, Li An crossed his arms, looking intrigued.

Ultimately, his search for UMF-13 was also to find valuable items that the Umbrella Corporation still stored in Raccoon City.

If Red Queen could proactively tell him, or even hand them directly to him, it would undoubtedly save him a lot of time.

“I need to know what you want first, human.”

“UMF-13 is one of the Umbrella Corporation’s core assets.

As long as it doesn’t harm UMF-13, I can grant your request within my authority.”

In Red Queen’s behavioral guidelines, she was to prevent the leakage of viruses and the loss of assets.

But when faced with an unavoidable sacrifice, she would naturally prioritize the most core asset for protection.

As for items of lower value than the primary protected asset, they could all become objects of transaction.

“What do I want?”

“What can I want?”

At this moment, even Li An was a bit confused, because he also wanted to use UMF-13 to see what valuable things the Umbrella Corporation had for him.

Right now, he didn’t even know what the Umbrella Corporation had, so how could he say what he wanted?

After a moment of thought!

After much deliberation, Li An finally spoke again.

He looked at the surveillance camera above and asked, “Does the Umbrella Corporation have any items with high-concentration energy?”

“If they are within Raccoon City.”

Before his words finished, Li An added a sentence.

“…”

As Li An’s words fell, several seconds passed, and Red Queen’s voice did not continue to ring out.

It was unclear whether she was searching the Umbrella Corporation’s internal information or had fallen silent.

“Yes, there are.”

“Currently, at the T10-Research Institute, there is a high-concentration energy item stored.

Its internal energy characteristic is thermal energy, and preliminary information records it as a celestial fragment, an object that fell to Earth from outer space.”

“And in the T3-Research Institute, there is also an unknown light core stored.

According to the recorded information, its internal energy characteristic is unknown, and it is an item recently acquired from the deep ocean.”

It was unclear how long had passed, but just as Li An was getting impatient, Red Queen’s voice suddenly rang out.

What Li An hadn't expected was that Raccoon City actually had items containing high-concentration energy, which immediately filled him with pleasant surprise.

He had been in this world for over two months, but his strength had remained at the level it was when he first entered the world, with almost no improvement.

Before proposing conditions to Red Queen, he had been considering a question.

That was, although the biohazard world had a high degree of danger, there didn't seem to be many great benefits he could gain from it.

As a top global biopharmaceutical company, the Umbrella Corporation’s high-value items should lean more towards biotechnology and genetic technology.

However, he had already collected quite a bit of these, just waiting to return to the Paradise to use its functions to upgrade his Biological Codex!

Therefore, after much thought, Li An finally posed such a question to Red Queen.

He thought that even if he didn’t make much money in the end, he would have improved his strength by a notch, so in that case, it wouldn’t be too much of a loss.

After all, with strength, one can be richer, right?

“Where is the celestial fragment from T10?”

Without hesitation, Li An directly asked.

“So, you’ve made your choice?”

However, facing Li An’s request, the next second Red Queen asked another question.

“Let him see it first.

If the value is sufficient, then we’ll make a deal.”

Li An didn't have much interest in UMF-13, but he also didn't expect this thing to have such a high status in the Umbrella Corporation.

However, this was understandable, as it was, after all, the only 13th-generation computer in the world, and what was most precious was the information data stored within it.

It might not be worth mentioning to Li An, but it contained the Umbrella Corporation’s many years of painstaking effort.

“…”

Upon hearing Li An’s words, Red Queen did not answer immediately.

She seemed to be predicting the credibility of Li An’s words, but after a few seconds, after countless predictions, she ultimately arrived at only one result.

That was, she had no choice, because the current laser corridor was already the last line of defense for UMF-13.

If she didn’t agree, Li An would go straight in, and then she would be even more unable to stop him.

And this also violated her behavioral guidelines!

“Smash the wall next to you.

Behind this wall is where the celestial fragment is stored.”

After obtaining the prediction result, Red Queen immediately stopped hesitating and directly revealed the location of the celestial fragment.

“Hmm?”

“Are you playing games with me?”

Hearing this, Li An was first stunned, then his face darkened.

It was simply too coincidental; he just happened to need a celestial fragment, and he was told it was right next to him.

Who would believe such a thing?

He certainly wouldn’t!

Boom!

The next second, Li An suddenly punched the adjacent wall.

His fist, as big as a sandbag, continuously struck, and a large amount of rubble immediately fell at Li An’s feet.

The wall was quickly smashed through at a visible speed.

Thump!

Finally, with a hollow sound, Li An’s fist finally completely broke into the next room, and he withdrew his fist at this moment, then raised his leg and kicked the wall.

Rumble!

The wall at this point had already collapsed quite a bit.

With Li An’s final kick, a gap large enough for one person to pass through was immediately revealed.

Without hesitation.

Li An stepped directly inside.

Upon entering, Li An discovered that this also seemed to be a laboratory.

Numerous instruments were arranged all around, and in the center of these instruments, a palm-sized, fragmented object emitting faint starlight was prominently displayed.

Celestial fragment!
