"Brother Qian, something bad has happened! I just got news that Brother Wang and Brother Liu were in a car accident and their fates are unknown. PO arrived too fast; our people can't get close at all!" Fang Jia couldn't hide his panic on the communicator. "Is Lu Yuan going to get serious?"
"Impossible! Unless he wants to die!" Qian Dahai's first instinct was to deny it. He rubbed his throbbing head and ordered, "You go down there right now and immediately stabilize things at the Wang and Liu families. I want to take back everything they have!"
The sharp-mouthed, monkey-faced patriarch of the Fang family received the order and immediately ran to the two men's house, only to be knocked down by PO's enforcer before he even stepped inside.
Po, under the pretext of "suspecting that an assassin stole important secrets and infiltrated the companies and private residences of the Wang and Liu families," sealed off all of their assets, and their families were also taken away by Po for investigation, completely sidelining Qian Dahai and his group.
The speed was so fast that it took less than an hour for the incident to occur.
The head of the Fang family panicked completely and hurriedly ran back to his mansion to hide all his assets, while on the other hand, he was still stirring up trouble for Qian Dahai.
Qian Dahai was also a little worried, or rather, afraid.
His fears were just as he suspected: Lu Yuan was about to rebel!
He must strike first!
He directly contacted several teams in the preparation zone and, taking advantage of the darkness, stormed into the commander-in-chief's residence.
That day, the entire Alliance could see a strange scene: hundreds of black combat ships bearing serial numbers sped in from beyond the sky, rushing towards the Consul General's residence like a swarm of black crows, confronting the white Executor hovercraft on the PO's side.
In the darkness, countless lights swept across the massive cloud formations in the sky, within which could even be seen the silhouettes of large interstellar spaceships.
A storm is brewing, and thunder rumbles.
The residents of Block B, exhausted from a long day, involuntarily looked up at the tense scene unfolding above.
"That's the spaceship of the combat readiness zone team. Could something have happened to it?"
"What exactly happened? Can anyone find out why so many combat ships suddenly appeared?"
"Look, someone's coming out!"
The residents of Sector B, who were looking up, could only vaguely see that the largest combat spaceship had landed on the helipad of the Consul General's residence. The people who got off were all wearing black exoskeletons and were three times the height of an average person. This was the smallest scale that could be used in the battle.
These mechs, made of special materials, can unleash human strength more than a hundred times and are equipped with many automated weapons.
Compared to what the executor on the PO's side was wearing, the latter looked almost like a child's toy.
Gradually, everyone sensed that something was wrong.
Some people speculated in alarm, "Could it be that the predators have returned?"
Most of the people around had a look of confusion and fear on their faces. They had lived peacefully on this planet for more than an epoch. Most of them had never actually encountered a predator. They only knew how terrifying predators were from information and documents. It was rumored that the largest predator could be more than three meters tall.
Boom—!
Thunder rumbled in the sky, and a strong wind suddenly rose. Many residents of Block B quickly closed their doors and windows. It was springtime on this planet. Although it was usually fine, the wind could reach force 10 when a storm came.
Just as they closed the doors and windows, they vaguely heard an explosion from Sky City No. 2 above them, with huge flames shooting into the air.
An hour after the heavy rain started, residents of Block B learned what had happened from television.
"...Based on the hazards discovered at the scene by the PO enforcers, following the unexpected deaths of two figures of paramount importance to the Allied Nation yesterday, two other figures of paramount importance to the Allied Nation, Principal Zhang and Professor Li, died in an attack. The arsonist was a B-grade gene user who claimed to be from an organization called K. This organization originated from District B and incited and brainwashed some vicious B-grade gene users to participate in the sabotage... The enforcers and PO are now intensifying their efforts to investigate the case and are appealing to all citizens of the Allied Nation to remain calm and restrained, offering a reward for reporting the hideouts of organization K..."
The female announcer on the television spoke calmly, but the heavy rain couldn't obscure the flashing lights of the PO Executor hovercars outside. Countless PO Executor hovercars were flying down from Sky City and entering Area B, investigating house to house, as if determined to get to the bottom of things.
Meanwhile, many opportunists reported some dubious locations, claiming they were "K organization hideouts." The executors immediately rushed into the reported locations with orders; some were fake, and some were "real."
When Qian Dahai arrived at the Consul General's residence, Xia Yixin was also fully protected in her own room by the Consul General's residence system for safety reasons. However, as soon as Lu Yuan left, V took over control of her room.
After these few days, she discovered that V was more powerful than she had imagined. Apart from being temporarily unable to connect to the experimental system in the safe house, she had basically escaped being passive thanks to Xia Yixin's method of intrusion by casually sticking on transparent chips. With V's assistance, she could see a clear picture of the fighter jets landing in the standby area displayed on the monitor in Area B.
The reason she didn't directly ask Lu Yuan for these permissions was because, although they were currently in a cooperative relationship, she knew that once she lost control, she would be at his mercy. Furthermore, even in the worst-case scenario, she couldn't possibly be bound to Lu Yuan for life; that would be too painful.
"Master, things are proceeding smoothly as you predicted. The good news is that my computer system has successfully connected to a fighter jet in the standby zone, and we may be able to learn more about the standby zone."
