532: Chapter 532 Cooperation with Several Major Families

Long Yuan's words were like a bucket of cold water, completely chilling everyone present to the bone!

"A powerful enemy?! What other powerful enemy could there be?! Wasn't even that Heavenly God wounded by it?" Xu Chuanzhong asked suspiciously.

Long Yuan glanced at him and pointed his finger upward...

"Are you saying... people from beyond the heavens?!" Xu Chuanzhong also realized and cried out in alarm!

Long Yuan praised, "Correct! The world beyond the heavens is full of experts; any one of them could instantly kill all the experts on Blue Star. For example, a Middle Stage Golden Core expert from the Tianji Pavilion will be arriving soon. If she finds out we used such weapons to wipe out the Sea Clan and the Sea Fowl, do you think she wouldn't be interested in learning about them? If I go into hiding, who do you think she will seek out?"

"Heavens..." Everyone gasped, their faces changing drastically!

Indeed, if the people from the Tianji Pavilion couldn't find Long Yuan but learned that the several great families had all purchased extremely powerful Light-based Weapons from him, she would definitely seek out these families. At that time, would they let her see them or not? If she wanted to take them, would they let her or not?

The people in the tent were all heads of the several great families. They already knew that the Tianji Pavilion was a massive cultivation power, and Blue Star was merely one of their peripheral colonial planets. If they didn't let this expert from the Tianji Pavilion see the weapons, or if they killed her, it would surely invite fierce retaliation from the Tianji Pavilion. Before the Tianji Pavilion, the several great families were nothing more than a few ants; they would likely be wiped out in no time...

Long Yuan continued, "Therefore, if you look at the video information I reported to the Imperial Court, there is not a single frame regarding the Drones or the Light-based Weapons. Furthermore, the soldiers at the front have been placed under a gag order; they are strictly forbidden from revealing these two types of weapons. In fact, very few people have seen the Light-based Weapons, while more have seen the Drones. However, the Drones are just small aircraft; I believe the people from the Tianji Pavilion won't be too interested, provided they don't know the Drones' true combat power..."

"That is true! The combat power of the Drone swarm is simply unimaginably formidable. It would be great if we could buy Drones as well!" Geng Nanfeng said with a fawning smile.

"Yes, those Drones are incredibly powerful. They helped us wipe out the Sea Clan as soon as they arrived, and not a single one of them escaped. This combat efficiency is truly astonishing..."

"Actually, I think the Drones are better. They won't attract the attention of the Tianji Pavilion, yet they possess extreme combat power. Having them in hand is just as good!"

"Right, right! Since we can't buy Light-based Weapons, buying Drones is the same! It will definitely elevate our families' foundations to a new level..."

Everyone's attention immediately shifted to the Drones, waiting for Long Yuan to nod!

Long Yuan smiled bitterly, "Do you think the Drones won't attract the attention of the Xuanji Tower? I'm afraid they're already recorded in the Xuanji Tower's information! If you really buy them and really use them, then the time until a Tianji Pavilion expert comes knocking won't be far off. Moreover..."

"Moreover what?!" Geng Nanfeng asked urgently.

"Drones are very powerful, but controlling them is a comprehensive System. There must be strong platform capabilities. At the same time, you don't have enough super Geniuses to control them!" Long Yuan teased.

"Comprehensive System? Super Geniuses?" Geng Nanfeng was stunned.

"Yes, what you see are small aircraft, but you don't know how complex the support System behind them is. This System includes technology, talent, resources, and wealth. Even though your super families are quite powerful, as it stands, you would struggle to run even one System. This is because you lack sufficient knowledge reserves, technical support, and super talent; having only resources and financial power is far from enough!" Long Yuan explained.

"Then we can select the most talented people from our families to control them?" Geng Nanfeng asked suspiciously.

"Yes, our several great families all have Geniuses. It shouldn't be hard to pick a few to train!" Xu Chuanwei echoed.

Long Yuan shook his head and said, "Your Geniuses are Geniuses in Cultivation. Controlling Drones isn't just a matter of Cultivation; it also involves learning and understanding high-tech knowledge. Training super Geniuses like Sima Zhen, Shangguan Zhi, and Nangong Jidi is absolutely not something you can accomplish right now!"

Geng Nanfeng and the others looked at each other in shock, but he still said unwillingly, "Young Master Yuan, you might be underestimating our several great families. If you can train those super Geniuses in such a short time, then we certainly can too!!!"

"Exactly!!!" The Three Elders of the Xu Family and Qi Xuming all echoed resolutely.

"Oh? Seniors, don't forget the premise I mentioned earlier: the Tianji Pavilion likely already knows about special weapons like Drones. They might come knocking one day looking for them. So, further talk is useless; they are indeed not something you can possess right now! As for the issue of super Geniuses, they must first be in the direction of Mind Power Masters, with a relatively strong Cultivation Realm in terms of Soul Power. At the same time, they must possess talent for controlling large-scale computer games, and their knowledge reserves must cover multiple Domains such as computers, networks, hackers, military, and combat. If your families have such young Geniuses, I can take them in for training. However, they can only be used by me, because it's impossible for you to possess such a platform!" Long Yuan said.

"To think it's like this..." Everyone was stunned!

They hadn't expected that controlling Drones required so much unique knowledge. No wonder Long Yuan confidently said the several great families couldn't possibly have them. Based on the standards he mentioned, it would indeed be difficult for the families to pick anyone out now. After all, they all followed the path of Cultivation; no one was interested in studying things like computers and networks. In fact, the entire Great Ming was like this; all families were crowding onto the path of Cultivation. In terms of high technology, only Prince Zhao's Tiangong Group was conducting research. If such talent really existed, it was very likely they could only be found within the Tiangong Group...

However, after this great battle with the Sea Clan, the elders of the several great families all recognized the powerful might of high-tech weapons. They were truly envious. If their families hadn't only followed the path of Cultivation but had also integrated the path of technology, they might have achieved decent results on this path by now. Unfortunately, they were truly lagging too far behind!

Geng Nanfeng suddenly noticed Long Yuan's final sentence and said excitedly, "Young Master Yuan, can you really train the people we select?"

"Correct! We can cooperate. As long as your people pass the assessment, I will train them. But let me say this upfront: once they come to me, they belong to me and will serve here from then on. Unless they voluntarily give up, in which case I will return them to their families after erasing part of their memories! Of course, as a reward for you selecting and sending talent to me, I can sell you some other weapons..."
