Chapter 226 Silky Smooth Like Slicing a Melon
Seeing that the mechanical tree was about to leave with Chen Qing, Chen Qing showed no intention of leaving it behind.
Before Shi Fang Tu could speak, one of the vice presidents became anxious and immediately stopped Chen Qing.
Everyone here is a mechanic, and at a fairly high rank, so they naturally know the importance of that mechanical tree.
Chen Qing just took it away like that, what are they supposed to do now?
"..."
Shi Fang Tu did not refute, clearly agreeing with the vice president's opinion.
Regardless of who left that mechanical tree, it will eventually belong to the Mechanical Association.
Only when the machinery association owns the property can these people have a chance to get a share.
Xia Li had no objection to this; the Mechanical Tree could only play a greater role if it were in the hands of the Mechanical Association.
Her relationship with Chen Qing was good, but that was all.
If I had to say, Chen Qing's relationship with Xia Li might not be as good as Chen Qing's relationship with the others.
At least the conflict of interest between them isn't that big yet.
After the start of the Deep Blue War, the conflict of interest between Chen Qing and the other mechanics intensified.
The plate was already small to begin with, and it got even smaller after the Deep Blue War began.
Limited resources, unlimited population.
Chen Qing stopped and turned to look at the mechanic who had stopped her.
"Want to fight?"
Although Chen Qing lost her weapon, it did not mean that her combat power would be reduced.
Clearly, these people didn't intend to let Chen Qing leave with the mechanical tree so easily, so a fight was inevitable.
The fluid metal on the enforcer's body materialized into a silver knife, which he handed to Chen Qing, while his longsword pointed at the mechanics opposite him.
When the mechanics from the Mechanical Association saw the law enforcers, a hint of amazement flashed in their eyes.
It's so beautiful.
If this mechanical creation belongs to them...
This group of people are used to being domineering and arrogant. With the support of the Mechanical Association and their families, there is basically nothing they cannot do.
They surrounded Chen Qing with perfect coordination, while Shi Fang Tu Li Duo and Xia Li seemed to be keeping to themselves.
Shi Fangtu frowned at Chen Qing, but still spoke up to help him out, though his words were rather unpleasant.
"Leave the mechanical tree behind, and you can leave."
"You know how important this mechanical tree is; we will give you other compensation."
Shi Fangtu wanted to keep the mechanical tree not out of greed, but because of its importance to their research on the new virus.
Overall, Shi Fang Tu still didn't want to have a conflict with Chen Qing.
Chen Qing withstood their pressure without backing down at all, which shows that Chen Qing has confidence.
The combat machine standing next to her alone is enough to give them a run for their money.
These mechanics aren't really good at combat.
They miscalculated; they didn't expect Chen Qing to have such a powerful combat machine.
In order to keep the news from leaking out, the Mechanical Association only sent Shi Fangtu and a few others; no more.
In terms of mechanics and power struggles, they are undoubtedly top-notch, but in terms of combat...
Since that disaster more than 20 years ago, the development of the Mechanical Association has regressed by a hundred years.
This century has been not only about knowledge and technology, but also about other aspects.
For example, the old chairman left behind certain combat machines, certain blueprints, certain factories...
The current mechanical association is unlikely to be able to fill the gap.
In the past, mechanics were not only skilled in crafting machinery, but also exceptionally powerful in combat.
Just like Chen Qing now.
Now, it's almost there.
To be honest, if it were the old Mechanical Association, they would never have tolerated those pirates being so unruly during the last trip to the Mechanical Island in Shangjia!
"unnecessary."
"I'll say it one last time, get out of the way."
Chen Qing felt he had been generous enough, taking only one mechanical tree and none of the other machines and resources on the island.
It's true that all the machines on the island are filled with fragments of civilized consciousness, but now that Chen Qing knows what the problem with these machines is, dealing with them is relatively simple.
There may be conscious fragments on a machine, but not necessarily on its parts.
Chen Qing thought for a moment and then put away the knife in his hand.
We really can't let them off too easily.
Why should she go against resources?
The mechanics thought Chen Qing was frightened by them, and before their smiles could even appear, they heard Chen Qing directing the mechanical tree.
"Take all of these, all of those, everything from here."
Chen Qing gave the mechanical tree instructions quite naturally.
Law enforcement can still deal with the intrusion of fragments of civilized consciousness, but they certainly cannot resist those Sailor Rabbits and Titanium Crystal Flying Ants.
Chen Qing could only command the mechanical tree, but fortunately, the mechanical tree was obedient.
What are you doing??
The mechanics stared wide-eyed at Chen Qing in disbelief and questioned him.
"Don't you have eyes?"
Chen Qing glanced at them and said coldly.
"???"
Why has this person suddenly become so aggressive?!
The mechanics said they were furious.
"you!"
"Get out of here."
Chen Qing lowered her eyes to look at the mechanic blocking her way and calmly uttered two words.
There are plenty of mechanical resources on the island; she can use them all to make the most of her time.
I originally wanted to leave directly, not wanting to get involved in any trouble.
But seeing these mechanics, Chen Qing felt that even if she didn't look for trouble, trouble would find her.
"Chen Qing!!"
The mechanic was absolutely furious! How dare this lowly commoner treat her like that?!
Chen Qing's eyes narrowed, and he flipped the knife in his hand, the blade gleaming with a silvery-white light.
Before anyone could react, the knife was swung out.
The sharp blade sliced off the mechanic's head as smoothly as slicing a melon, leaving her with a look of astonishment on her face.
One fatal blow!
The sudden turn of events shocked the mechanics. Chen Qing... how dare she?
Did she really attack the people from the Mechanical Association like that?
Doesn't she care at all about the consequences of her actions?!
Does she realize the extent of the impact her actions will have on the current situation?
Chen Qing notified the people from the Machinery Association to come here, which shows that she still considers the overall situation.
Those mechanics all thought the same thing. They thought they had Chen Qing under control, but they didn't expect Chen Qing to be so unpredictable!
She killed a vice president of the Mechanical Association with such fresh and beautiful skin.
The mechanics were shocked, but this was the real Chen Qing; this was just her personality.
What does the big picture or overall planning have to do with Chen Qing?
She can do whatever she wants, as long as she's happy.
Chen Qing's good temper sometimes isn't due to a sense of the bigger picture, but rather because she feels there's no need to argue and doesn't take things to heart at all.
But how should I put it? Sometimes, reasoning with people only makes them take advantage of you.
She has never been a good-tempered person.
Chen Qing's move immediately stunned the remaining people; they didn't think their heads were harder than the corpse on the ground.
A faint smile played on Shi Fangtu's lips.
Does anyone else have any objections?
Chen Qing's gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Shi Fang Tu and Xia Li.
With the death of a vice president, this vacancy will eventually need to be filled.
Using someone else to do one's dirty work, Shi Fang Tu is quite adept at it.
"..."
The vice presidents remained silent; people had died, what opinions could they possibly have?
Who would dare to stop Chen Qing?
