Master of Monster Synthesis

Yan Bo was just thinking about teaching this little brat a lesson when the base on the island suddenly rang out with blaring alarms.

"Trouble! A Nightmare Level Mechanical Winged Dragon has left Dragon Island and is headed this way!"

The guard personnel reported in panic.

As soon as his words fell, a deafening screech echoed across the sky, followed by a sudden storm sweeping through the island. The Earth Core Energy Cannons protecting the island were instantly swept into the ocean by the raging winds.

The base descended into chaos as everyone looked up, only to see a massive mechanical winged dragon, its wings spanning 150 meters, diving down toward the crowd on the island.

"It's a Nightmare Two Star Mechanical Winged Dragon!"

Yan Bo squinted his eyes slightly, preparing to activate his Talent Energy.

Before he could make a move, however, Qin Shou, who was nestled in Leng Xinlan's arms, suddenly raised his head. A rod-shaped weapon appeared in the palm of his hand.

The Ultimate Battle Instrument!

"Hum..."

In an instant, the Ultimate Battle Instrument was lifted high toward the sky. Violent atomic energy erupted wildly, with an extreme high-temperature beam that seemed to distort the space on the island. Everyone present could feel the terrifying power emanating from it.

"Boom!!"

"Hiss..."

In the blink of an eye, a brilliant blue beam shot straight into the heavens, easily piercing through the approaching Nightmare Level Mechanical Winged Dragon. The horrifying heat melted it into a pool of molten metal that splattered onto the ground.

"What..."

Yan Bo and Leng Xinlan glanced at each other, both wide-eyed in disbelief.

To kill a Nightmare Two Star monster so effortlessly… This brat has broken through to the Unbreakable Realm!

And not just Unbreakable One Star.

This quickly?

Meanwhile, Qin Shou calmly retracted the Ultimate Battle Instrument, approached the pair, and stood before them with a composed expression.

"Allow me to reintroduce myself. I am Qin Shou. From now on, I will be in full command of the rescue mission on Dragon Island as per Principal Qin's appointment. Please review the mandate here."

With that, Qin Shou pulled up the virtual appointment letter from his communicator and presented it to the two.

Their expressions grew even more bewildered.

"You little brat, quit joking around…"

"Ahem, Comrade Yan Bo, mind your words. Address me as Commander!" Qin Shou interrupted sternly.

Yan Bo clenched his fists tightly. The little brat had grown strong, and now he dared to talk back.

He shot a glance at Leng Xinlan, but she ignored his unspoken plea.

Her expression returned to calm: "The appointment is legitimate, and Xiao Shou isn't joking. If it's Principal Qin's decision, I'll comply."

Yan Bo staggered backward, clutching his chest as if heartbroken.

"I'm already so old, yet I have to obey this little…"

Qin Shou coughed pointedly, "Comrade Yan Bo, once again, mind your words."

Yan Bo: "..."

After a moment's pause, Yan Bo composed himself, conceding, "Fine. Speak, Commander. What's the plan now?"

Qin Long is one of Earth's four Supreme Strong figures; even the Twelve Families of the Federation wouldn't dare defy his will.

A little grumbling is fine, but he certainly couldn't leverage his seniority to cause trouble.

Qin Shou refrained from further teasing and said, "Third Uncle, tell me about Dragon Island's current situation."

Yan Bo tapped his communicator, projecting a virtual high-altitude rendering of the entire Dragon Island.

"Since the unknown mechanical lifeform awakened, Dragon Island has been enveloped by an incredibly unique ionosphere. It not only isolates all signals from the island but also traps everyone inside, preventing escape, while blocking outsiders from entering."

Leng Xinlan stepped forward and added, "We tested this thoroughly. Only purely mechanical devices and mechanical monsters can pass through the ionosphere unscathed. Escape appears to be possible only for mechanical monsters."

Qin Shou stroked his chin. "Have you tried breaking through by force?"

Yan Bo nodded with a sigh. "We tried, but with our current strength, it's practically impossible to breach it. At the very least, you'd need someone above Unbreakable Level 8.

But the problem now is that such powerful individuals are all occupied elsewhere, which has kept us at a stalemate up to this point."

"Additionally, we attempted to explore Dragon Island using remote camera equipment, but the interference is too severe, rendering the effort futile."

Leng Xinlan stared at Qin Shou's unperturbed expression and couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Shou, since Principal Qin sent you, he must have a comprehensive plan, right?"

On the surface, Qin Shou nodded, but inwardly, he was speechless.

Plan?

That thing doesn't exist!

He couldn't fathom what the old man was thinking, sending him—a mere Unbreakable Two Star—to track down the unknown lifeform on Dragon Island.

Does he really have that much faith in me?

Simultaneously, doubts swirled in Qin Shou's mind.

Find the mechanical lifeform, then notify him?

If the old man has time for that, why not come solve it himself instead of making such a roundabout move?

Maybe he's worried the unknown mechanical lifeform might flee again upon sensing Qin Long's presence.

Identifying the mechanical lifeform's precise location beforehand could allow a swift and decisive elimination.

Shaking his head, Qin Shou turned to Yan Bo.

"Third Uncle, send me all the information you have on Dragon Island. Then you all stay here and guard this base while I handle the rest."

"Leave it all to you?"

The disbelief in their eyes was evident.

"You're just Unbreakable Two Star, with limited strength. Let me go with you," Leng Xinlan suggested.

Yan Bo nodded, "That's right. We can assist you and make your actions smoother."

To this extraordinarily gifted son-in-law of the Long Family, he harbored mixed feelings of affection and frustration.

But no matter what, they were family now, and he couldn't allow Qin Shou to sacrifice himself here.

As for the previous idea of letting Qin Shou marry into the Long Family as a subordinate, Yan Bo decided not to bring it up again in the future.

He never imagined that the Principal of Beast Cultivation Main City favored this kid so much...

Despite their offers, Qin Shou expressed his gratitude but firmly declined, "No need. I've got it under control."

"But…"

Just as the two were about to protest, Qin Shou's Space Gate opened beneath him. A golden steel dragon emerged, lifting Qin Shou and soaring into the sky, heading toward Dragon Island.
