Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen, no matter how he calculated, found it wouldn't be easy to kill Cosimo under normal circumstances unless he could first eliminate his innate skill.

Of course, this was also very difficult, as Cosimo wouldn't recklessly use Celestial Descent unless it was a matter of life and death. After using Celestial Descent, he probably wouldn't give anyone else a chance.

Tian Xun stopped suggesting that Lin Shen use her Ascension Egg to ascend. However, she believed that Lin Shen had no other choice but to follow her plan in the end.

"Besides Cosimo's own strength, the teleporter he possesses is another issue. He can teleport away from Giant Ring Star at any time, so to kill him, you'll also need to deal with this problem," Tian Xun continued.

"How should we resolve this?" Lin Shen only then remembered that not only he had a watch teleporter on Giant Ring Star to escape with at any moment.

"Therefore, you can only kill him in a special place. There are a few places within the Star Belt where the teleporter cannot be activated, such as Hell Island, where you went before."

Only then did Lin Shen learn that teleportation was impossible on Hell Island. Thinking back, he felt somewhat frightened; thankfully, there was indeed no significant danger on Hell Island.

This was also the first time Lin Shen knew that the use of teleporters could be restricted. From now on, he had to plan an extra step ahead.

"You want me to kill Cosimo on Hell Island?" Lin Shen frowned.

"Of course not. If you two start fighting on Hell Island, it's most likely that you'll all be killed by the Hell Gatekeeper. Besides, Cosimo won't go to Hell Island since it would be a dangerous action for him too." Tian Xun paused before continuing, "The place I've arranged for you isn't far from Ocean Heaven Island. It's a floating island ring named Razor Fang Island.

There are many Base Mutation-level Razor Fang Beasts on that island, which resemble a hybrid of wild boars and porcupines with a high mutation rate. There are also a few Ascension-level Razor Fang Beasts. After several explorations, no advanced life forms or other anomalies have been discovered on Razor Fang Island.

But, there are two restrictions there: one is that you cannot fly, and the other is the inability to use teleporters."

"You gave me Ocean Heaven Island; had you already calculated everything from the start? The news of me joining, was that also deliberately let out by you for Cosimo to know?" Lin Shen suddenly realized many things.

"I didn't release any news. However, the news that I brought a human to my place—anyone determined enough would not be unaware of it," said Tian Xun with a smile.

"Would Cosimo go to a place like Razor Fang Island?" Lin Shen felt if it were him, he would not trouble himself by going to such a place.

"You don't understand Cosimo, nor do you understand the Metichi Family; they can't tolerate you. Of course, this is assuming Cosimo is completely confident that he can kill you without risk. For a Ninth Turn Ascending being to kill someone at First Turn, the concerns are much less. Of course, if you were still a Mutator, then he would have no concerns at all.

Razor Fang Island would be the perfect place to kill you, where you wouldn't even have the chance to teleport and escape." Tian Xun believed Lin Shen no longer entertained the idea of killing Cosimo as a Mutator.

Lin Shen was now not considering whether or not to kill Cosimo as a Mutator, but whether to continue with the plan at all.

On Razor Fang Island, Cosimo couldn't escape, but neither could he. This kind of fight with no backup plan was something Lin Shen greatly disliked.

Moreover, to kill Cosimo, let alone his current strength, even if he ascended, it would still be very difficult.

The key point was the lack of a retreat. Such fights were suitable for Wei Wufu, not for someone like him who bore the crucial responsibility of branching out and propagating.

Lin Shen thought to himself, how could he terminate this plan without angering Tian Xun?

"I was careless," Lin Shen sighed in his heart, but could think of no good solution.

Only now did he realize how much he had relied on the Sacrificial Halo. Without it, he would never have considered Tian Xun's proposal, much less agreed to it.

"It's inevitable that people become complacent at times, no wonder the Metichi Family got ahead of themselves," Lin Shen decided in his heart that in the future, he must exclude the Sacrificial Halo in his deliberations. Otherwise, if this continued, he was bound to suffer losses sooner or later.

Seemingly grasping Lin Shen's thoughts, Tian Xun continued, "You don't need to worry too much. I have made thorough preparations for your battle. The Enhancer secretly produced by the Celestial Race can greatly strengthen your body in a short period, boosting both your strength and speed significantly.

The side effect of this Enhancer is that it will leave your body extremely weak afterward, but with Angel Rebirth, you can ignore that side effect."

"I have also prepared a special set of Celestial Battle Armor for you. This armor is capable of withstanding a full-powered attack from Cosimo."

Tian Xun continued, "In addition, I have prepared a weapon for you. With your strength, even without Celestial Descent, you could not break through the reinforced carapace of the Crown of the King. With this weapon, you will have a chance to kill Cosimo."

"Didn't you say Twenty-Eight Fists are the key to killing Cosimo? Why the need for a weapon now?" Lin Shen was somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, Twenty-Eight Fists are the key to killing Cosimo, but your level is too low right now, and you have only just begun to learn the basics of it. You have yet to grasp the true essence of the skill. So, a backup is necessary. The weapon I've prepared for you is a pair of gauntlets, which can enhance your Fist Power," Tian Xun explained.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shen understood that such weapons existed.

"Why does Cosimo have to be killed within three days? Isn't it possible to do it later?" Lin Shen felt that there was indeed a chance to kill Cosimo after hearing Tian Xun's plan.

The issue was, this plan was predicated on Lin Shen using her Ascension Egg for Ascension to attain Angel Rebirth.

"Because in four days, a Nirvana Being from the Metichi Family will arrive at the Giant Ring Star. After staying here for a while, he will leave with Cosimo. Would you rather kill Cosimo under the watch of a Nirvana Being or chase after them?" Tian Xun said with a smile.

Having heard this, Lin Shen was even more inclined to call off the operation. A Nirvana-level Powerhouse was about to arrive; if he killed Cosimo first, it would be like thrusting his neck onto their blade.

Would Tian Xun truly protect him then? Lin Shen did not want his fate in someone else's hands.

Lin Shen was already planning to find a time to flee from the Giant Ring Star, or he could go to the Realm King Planet, set the time to the maximum, and hide for a while.

"Scared?" Tian Xun seemed to discern Lin Shen's intentions, speaking indifferently.

"Quite scared, actually. That's a Nirvana-level Powerhouse, killing me is barely more troublesome than squashing an ant," Lin Shen said with earnestness on his face.

Tian Xun burst out laughing: "You're quite candid about your fear of death."

"Aren't you just afraid of being the scapegoat? I'll give you protection," Tian Xun said as he stood up and began to unbutton the top button of his shirt.
