The current situation was becoming dangerously precarious for Adams, who did not attempt to further defend himself. Instead, he strode out of the room, out of the estate, and out of the villas nestled among green pines and cypresses...
However, when the news of Adams being banished reached the housekeeper clad in a steward's attire, she was not at all surprised. After making some inquiries, she soon reported the matter to Iman.
"Miss Iman, this is what happened."
Iman pondered for a moment and sighed with speechlessness. What a difficult person to deal with. She would have never bothered to send a household bionic person if Mr. Blade Warrior hadn't arranged to treat him well.
Household robots didn't stand out in terms of physical labor, and Sky City had no use for so many of them; the current need was mostly for service model types. Now, human resources were desperately needed for the shuttles heading to Satellite 8, whether it was transporting equipment to detect Bizarre phenomena or other miscellaneous tasks, and they had made thorough preparations for that.
Tapping lightly on the table, Iman said, "Then let's not bother with him. By the way, does Jade Clear Sect need people?"
"Quite a few disciples have returned to Immortal Mountain to begin reconstruction efforts, leaving only a few, including the protecting elders, chamber masters, and some core disciples and elite students. Their sect leader, Wu Tian, is very concerned about the progress of reconstruction, and he went back some days ago as well."
Iman nodded, thinking it might be better to leave these 'people' with them. After all, Jade Clear Sect disciples were plentiful, and that crowd, while appearing cordial, had hearts set higher than the heavens. Having more bionic persons to work might lead to less chaos, and once the Immortal Mountain reconstruction was completed, it would be peaceful.
With this in mind, Iman ordered Adams and the other dozen or so bionic persons to be taken to Jade Clear Sect. After all, it was a supreme hidden sect, and distributing one to each main holder of the sect, such as chamber masters and elders, would be a proper way to treat guests.
Some high-ranking members of Jade Clear Sect couldn't hide their joy at this news, especially the inner disciples, as the attendance of these beings would greatly reduce their daily chores. Mingfei, out of politeness, specially invited the housekeeper to sit down for a cup of tea but then suddenly remembered that robots didn't need to drink water, leading to an awkward laugh and dropping the matter.
After several twists and turns, Adams eventually arrived at Jade Clear Sect, a new environment that signaled a fresh start. She looked at Mengdie, and Mengdie looked back at her, both expressionless, inadvertently locking eyes.
Of course, neither was truly expressionless; they simply rarely showed their emotions outwardly. That was the case for Adams, and even more so for Mengdie.
"Miss, I will be responsible for your daily living from now on."
"Hmm." Mengdie nodded slightly in approval, showing none of the assertiveness of Sky Shadow.
Her response eased Adams's mind significantly. At least in dealing with this girl, she felt no overwhelming pressure. The system showed Adams's stress level sharply decreasing, slightly higher than when she was in Hans's home but nearly the same as usual. Hopefully, tomorrow would be an even better day.
In the Black Devil Star Cluster area, the second relief teams from various countries are rushing at full speed to the grey gaseous planet, Satellite 8, where the 'Bizarre' phenomenon is occurring.
Beam weapons can cause damage to the Bizarre. Since humanity discovered this, they have continuously tried various photon weaponry to attack it from all angles, which to some extent indeed restricts the advancement of the Bizarre.
So far, 'Bizarre' is rapidly approaching the Saudi binary stars. It is absolutely crucial to prevent such an entity from landing on the binary stars; if it does, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the local life forms.
Unfortunately, the binary stars and Satellite 8 are different; the planets are much larger than Earth and are home to populations incomparable to that of Satellite 8 – it would be impossible to transport so many people in a short time. Therefore, they must find a way to intercept the Bizarre before it reaches Satellite 8.
Fortunately, there is always a way out. Fighting is an instinct rooted in human genes, and countries have fought plenty of wars, both externally and internally. When they are backed into a corner, they will show unparalleled valor.
All is currently progressing well, everything is moving in a positive direction. Today, the entire world will hold a live program, touted as one with a hundred percent viewership in human history. The Bizarre will be thoroughly annihilated, after all, when you hold the chips for decisive victory, so-called enemies are hardly a concern.
Let's not talk about whether it can truly be destroyed. In terms of momentum, humanity will not lose, at least not on the Federation's side. The hearts of politicians like Greedy Wolf and Adams are in their throats. Can it be done?
Indeed, according to Rhine's Law and experiments by physicists from various countries, beam weapons can indeed hit the Bizarre, causing it to disintegrate and deform, but they can only restrict it to some extent and are unable to truly destroy it.
Many industry experts have stated that the reason it cannot be destroyed is because the ray energy is not sufficient. If the world's military forces were to launch a full-scale attack, it might be possible to destroy the Bizarre in one fell swoop.
However, when this question was put to the Blade Warrior of the Combat Power Tester company, the nations did not get an answer from Blade Warrior. Her suggestion was merely a conservative one, akin to a woman's, proposing migration to an exile planet and waiting to further observe the Bizarre, trying to move as many people as possible from the binary stars.
But so many people can't just be moved at a moment's notice. If there's an issue midway, the bomb of public opinion could be even more terrifying than the conflict itself, not to mention the constant spread of the virus... The world's nations might truly descend into anarchy, a scenario that no country wants to see. Therefore, the powers that be have to make a strong and positive response, at least in terms of boosting morale, as mankind has an innate sense for it.
The FCA Alliance fleet, led by Rekart as the vanguard, and the Imperial Alliance fleet, led by Bergheide at the helm, with several standing councilor countries and imperial powers swarming towards the binary stars, determined to destroy the Bizarre as soon as possible.
The menacing mega-fleet halted its advance only one astronomical unit away from the Bizarre magnetic field, halting further progress due to strong interference from the Bizarre magnetic field.
But the human steel-like torrent did not retreat in the slightest, targeting the Bizarre magnetic field with beam weapons. According to the microwave magnetic field observation, the Bizarre is still rapidly approaching the binary stars; humanity has no ground to retreat. This is a direct confrontation between humanity and a third-kind life form.
As the alliance's command center collectively gave orders, the light rain shooting into the sky was like a loud victory song at dawn, unstoppable... Such firepower is not only enough to tear the Bizarre apart but could also riddle a planet with holes.
Under the open-air projections in the major cities, crowds are dense, all closely watching the battle of the binary stars, displaying overflowing human confidence, at least in the eyes of the bionic humans.
It has to be said, in the eyes of the bionic humans, humanity is akin to the existence of God. Despite being very small themselves, they can use intelligence to create various weapons of mass destruction. Even though bionic humans possess high intelligence, they do not have any creative ability and do not consider problems beyond idioms, for instance, whether there might be mechanisms between the numbers one and two that we do not understand.
For the moment, the sky full of light rain has completely enveloped the Bizarre in no time at all. According to the energy analysis provided by various countries, the alliance's firepower coverage is still increasing. Even the fleet's Mecha pilots have already boarded their Mechas, locking onto the distant void, pouring all available fire onto the Bizarre.
The allied space command center continually sends out reports of success. The Bizarre magnetic field is weakening, its energy body is constantly splitting and disintegrating; it might be disintegrating, at least it's not as concentrated as before.
The Normandy fleet, with the soy-sauce brothers at the forefront as elite Red Cloaks, have the most precise gunfire. Coupled with long-range optical positioning, even rays scattered across an astronomical unit can accurately hit the distant void and have a certain effect on the Bizarre.
As for how much effect, who knows? Fat Tiger has only one thought in mind: shoot as much energy as possible, then turn tail and run after shooting everything. This place is not good for a long stay. Regardless of what others think, older brother feels this is just goddamn unreliable.
Can it work? If it really could work, we wouldn't have waited until today, nor would we have waited for the human fleets to come together to support the binary stars. Rather than saying it's support, he feels it more resembles putting on a show.
