Chapter 186 The World's Largest Noisy Person
Chloe seemed to have discovered something, staring at a spot in the crowd: "Someone is causing trouble over there."
"It's under control."
"My people have taken that man away."
Zeus had just opened the mind link and wanted to sound the alarm when he received feedback from the Banshee and Chloe at the same time.
Zeus looked over there and saw several people in ordinary clothes quietly moving away from the crowd. At first glance, Zeus thought they looked vaguely familiar. They were the people from the Fire Moth.
The Banshee was hiding on the roof of a newly built church nearby, using her vision to control the overall situation. As for Chloe, "Aren't your people supposed to be in observation mode and unable to move?"
"With such a small range, one person can monitor everything. And because he has unfolded the [Cocoon], the nearby nymphs can communicate directly through consciousness. Although we are not good at direct combat, that is for dealing with extraordinary people. It is still very simple for ordinary people."
As if afraid that Zeus wouldn't believe her, Chloe picked up a branch from the ground and grabbed it lightly, leaving several fingerprints on it.
When a person uses his ability, people nearby can communicate freely. Why does this ability feel so much like WIFI? To be more precise, it should be a local area network. This ability is really suitable for infiltration. Now that I think about it, the abilities of nymphs seem to be very suitable for spying. It was really a good choice to let Isaac develop the intelligence network. I don't know how he is doing now.
"Well, after interrogating him, it seems that he wanted to stir up some trouble because of friction with his co-workers and drinking too much. It was not targeting the Banshee." Chloe's eyes lit up and she whispered to Hughes.
"Okay, lock him up first and deal with him after this is over."
Hughes let out a long sigh.
So far, everything seems to be going smoothly overall. The Banshees' first appearance did not encounter any major obstacles. Firstly, the islanders have long known about the existence of the Banshees, and Zeus's publicity machine has also done a lot of warm-up in advance, and the public has a very high degree of favorability towards the Banshees.
The second point is that these onlookers were actually screened by Xius.
These people were all workers. Hughes had given them a special holiday and brought all the others here except for the necessary ones. Although he did not investigate each one individually, the workers who were able to join the factory had already been screened.
Literacy, basic scientific literacy, compliance with rules and regulations, and the ability to accept new things such as machines. Even though he is just an ordinary worker, he must meet all these conditions at the same time. This is why Hughes spent so much effort to promote education in Castres.
At present, it seems that this group of workers he deliberately trained are quite receptive to the Banshee. Well, even a little too much. The patrol team led by Erwin has already stopped several groups of fanatical Banshee worshippers.
Speaking of which, Zeus was a little amused and helpless. The popularity of the banshees was beyond imagination, especially Nini. The statue standing in front of the school made her have a large number of fans. Her strong personal strength and the mystery brought by the alien race made many people worship the banshees almost blindly.
If Zeus hadn't provided basic education and basic scientific concepts to the islanders, the banshees would probably have created a cult if they had raised their arms.
Zeus also suppressed this trend. Fanatical worship was not a good thing. If the banshee wanted to get along with the islanders on an equal footing, she had to curb this trend.
After adding physical contamination to the furnace, the banshees closed the furnace door and nodded to the boiler operator. They did not leave but joined the crowd of onlookers. Zeus reserved an open space specifically for the banshees.
As the banshees approached, there was some commotion among the crowd. After all, they were too tall. Even when they were just walking, they looked like a group of cavalrymen riding tall horses. The sense of oppression was innate.
Zeus arranged a lot of people among the crowd here to prevent panic. When the riot just started to get a little bit subdued, someone in the crowd immediately came forward to calm and control it. In addition, the banshees did not take any other actions, so the riot quickly subsided.
Only then did Xius let out a long sigh.
This is actually the most dangerous step. The dense crowd and the tall banshee can easily cause a stampede if not handled properly. What is even more dangerous is group panic.
Camp bombing accidents are common in trained armies, but those on the scene were all ordinary people, and it was their first close encounter with the banshee, so everyone was sweating.
Fortunately, everything went well.
The onlookers looked at the banshees not far away and talked in low voices. Although there was still a trace of fear in their eyes, there was more curiosity and friendliness. The initial part was the most difficult. Now that they could accept the banshees appearing in front of them, it would be much easier to get along with them in the future.
The discussion in the crowd did not last long. With an order coming from the deep pit, all the students completed the final inspection and evacuated from the deep pit. The ignition ceremony was about to begin.
After the previous little episode, people's attention was once again focused on the huge steel behemoth at the bottom of the pit. This time, whether they were humans or banshees, ordinary people or extraordinary people, they all looked intently at the central furnace in the deep pit. This was the joint effort of all people, and everyone contributed to it.
"Prepare for ignition!" Chloe shouted. She was responsible for the design and construction of the central furnace, and she was responsible for the specific execution of the ignition operation.

As her voice fell, the operator in the distance began to turn the valve.
"The regulator pressure is locked at 180 pounds!" The worker who was monitoring the operation glanced at the pressure gauge. On the black-and-white dial, the pointer was vibrating violently in the green safety zone. "The condensate return valve is open three and a quarter turns!"
After a series of reports, the engineer at the valve finally responded: "Everything is normal, you can ignite!"
Chloe's eyes lit up and she raised her voice and shouted, "Fire!"
The operator grasped the lever with trembling hands and then pressed it down hard. At the moment when the red flames rushed into the furnace along the spiral fuse, the twelve ring-shaped nozzles spit out blue-purple tongues of fire at the same time.
Deep in the pit, the boiler slowly began to sing loudly, noisily celebrating its arrival into the world. Twelve pressure relief valves simultaneously emitted whistle-like hisses, red-golden tongues of fire gushed out from the observation holes, casting steel frame shadows like a giant's ribs on the pit wall, and the exclamations of the onlookers were drowned out by the roar.
The largest Noisemaker in Castel's history began its never-ending roar.
