Lin Qing suddenly understood.
However, this use of the javelin was a bit of a clever trick; without the combination of multiple abilities and Combat Skills, it wouldn't have been possible.
Simple kinetic energy alone couldn't produce the destructive power of a tactical missile.
"But..." Chen Guang suddenly said, "With the weight of that javelin, you accelerated it to twenty times the speed of sound by relying on the elastic potential energy of Free Body. You must have injured yourself, right?"
"Mm." Lin Qing nodded slightly.
With his current explosive power, he could easily throw a several-kilogram flying knife at dozens of times the speed of sound.
But to accelerate a javelin weighing 1.2 tons to such a degree was naturally very difficult. Apart from his own power, the main thing was to utilize the elastic potential energy of Free Body.
However, such an overload of force and rebound would naturally injure his muscles.
But with his now recomposed and complete "High-speed Regeneration," he would quickly recover.
"This move can indeed only be used once," Chen Guang said. "The alloy piece you used to inscribe the Heavenly Orbital Coordinates will also have to withstand the force of that shot."
The metal piece was only a Second Rank alloy, while the javelin was comparable to a Third Rank alloy made of Superpower Material. At such high velocity, it naturally was destroyed instantly.
"Do you think that shot just now could kill Uleao?" Lin Qing asked.
"It's possible, but it's hard to say."
"If he had time to react," Chen Guang said, "then your shot definitely wouldn't kill him, unless it was faster, beyond his reaction time."
Lin Qing pondered thoughtfully.
Uleao's known Fourth Energy Level Genetic Abilities already included at least two.
One was Energy Vision, which was very useful for both scouting and combat, belonging to the category of auxiliary powers.
The second was energy extraction within a certain range, specifically manifesting as extracting heat to create an icy freeze or even reducing the kinetic energy of molecules so that flying objects lost their energy and fell straight down.
These two abilities could form an effective combination.
Fourth Energy Level abilities almost always involved all sorts of miraculous changes.
Not only were his abilities strong, but others were strong as well.
"However, there is still a way to increase the power of my move, and I can also borrow 'Endless Heavenly Brilliance'..."
Lin Qing didn't waste any time; he quickly left the scene, took a long detour to Lin'an City, randomly chose a residential building, and leaped to the rooftop.
Once seated on the rooftop, he whispered, "Chen Guang, have Jiayi help me scout Uleao and Fei Yao's locations. Keep an eye out for me too."
"You still want to try to kill him?" Chen Guang asked.
"Of course. Today I suddenly disappeared from his Energy Vision range; he will definitely guess that I have the Instantaneous Light ability."
"Even if it's just a guess, it's better to deal with him as soon as possible," Lin Qing said.
Relying solely on a trace of Bloodline to unearth the Core Genetic Ability was even harder than winning the jackpot in a lottery.
He wasn't ready yet to let others know his trump card.
Today he had suddenly vanished from Uleao's Energy Vision range; he could either have hidden his energy or instantly left that five-kilometer range.
The opponent would naturally speculate that it might be the combination of Instantaneous Light and Heavenly Orbital Coordinates.
Used alone, Instantaneous Light, turning into an Energy State, could only last 0.001 seconds.
But when used in conjunction with the Heavenly Orbital Coordinates, guided by the invisible Sky Track, following its trajectory would stabilize the Energy State transformed by Instantaneous Light; as long as the distance was no more than thirty kilometers, it could maintain Instantaneous Light and travel in one breath to the location of the Heavenly Orbital Coordinates.
This extraordinary Combined Skill "Return Coordinate" was mentioned in the materials given to him by Dawn Group, indicating it was not a secret.
"Once I'm strong enough, like a Cosmic Citizen, I won't be afraid of being exposed."
Lin Qing thought to himself.
He also didn't want to attract the attention of Intelligent Star Group and be forced to sign a binding contract; otherwise, being exposed wouldn't matter, and this move wouldn't be easily countered.
"So... just kill Uleao and Fei Yao."
Sitting cross-legged on the rooftop at night, Lin Qing immediately focused his mind.
"Borrow 'Endless Heavenly Brilliance'!"
The next moment, as a flood of information entered his mind, Lin Qing also understood how to cultivate this Combat Skill to the Instinct Level.
The "Endless Heavenly Brilliance" Combat Skill's body enhancing effects were negligible, mainly focusing on 'acceleration and traction of energy', so it was essentially suited for projectile attacks.
The special energy 'Heavenly Brilliance' cultivated by the "Endless Heavenly Brilliance" Combat Skill could be attached to projectiles, increasing their speed and slightly adjusting their course, like transforming into a more unpredictable S-shaped trajectory, among other things.
Cultivating thirty-six strands of Heavenly Brilliance was enough to master this Combat Skill, and cultivating three hundred and eighty strands would bring it to the Instinct Level.
As a wealth of memories emerged, the Mysterious Energy within Lin Qing began to change constantly, rapidly forming into strands of Heavenly Brilliance as sharp as cold light.
Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes.
With his genes now recomposed and complete, the difficulty of practicing Basic Battle Techniques was very low. Plus, with the borrowing capability, it was no longer as tumultuous as before.
"Chen Guang, where are Uleao and Fei Yao now?" Lin Qing asked.
"They've already returned to the Jin Guang Building."
A streak of light flew out and materialized into Chen Guang, "They're contacting Carol. I estimate they will soon realize something's wrong."
Lin Qing nodded slightly, taking out a silver-white circular alloy thin piece from the pocket of his Starry Sky Battle Dress.
Made of Second Rank alloy ordered from headquarters, it was extremely sharp on the edges and sturdy enough to withstand the strength of a typical Three Star Level Elite Patrol—otherwise, it would require a sufficiently sharp and sturdy weapon to damage it.
