Upon his arrival at the Stephen Family, Li Xiang received a technical assignment that afternoon. What puzzled him was that the Stephen Family didn't focus on technological development in combat power tester engineering but instead chose the Electromagnetic Whip.

Seeing that a major battle was imminent, even Li Xiang, who was involved in everything, smelled a rat. For three consecutive days, he devoted himself entirely to technical research and development.

During this time, Yuna frequently came to visit. She pampered him to the greatest extent, and almost gave herself to soothe this idiot. Who could blame her when this was what the Clan Leader wanted? The files recorded very detailed information that Li Xiang's thinking was not typical and one must act in accordance with his ideation. For instance, while others were struggling outside for a better future, this ugly and poor fool was aspiring for something beyond his reach.

Despite Li Xiang working diligently, he became a big brother in these three days. However, Li Xiang indeed had his own capital. As a civilian Mecha master, despite having little intelligence in common sense, his expertise in his professional field far exceeded ordinary people. Whenever the technical department encountered a problem, Li Xiang could solve it easily, even Clan Leader Bajin started to see him in a different light.

Now, the workshop technicians were all flattering towards Li Xiang. Until the fourth day, when the first prototype Electromagnetic Whip was made, everyone thought this idiot wouldn't last much longer. He dared to publicly accuse Yuna of flatulence in front of everyone. Despite her repeated patience, Yuna was on the verge of losing control. She fumed silently - It was clearly him who had done it.

Despite smiling on the surface, all the workers knew that the sweeter and more beautiful her smile was, the more dangerous Yuna became.

Fortunately, Li Xiang was a man that could adapt to his audience. He had left quite an impression on Clan Leader Bajin. The flattery was so blunt that even Bajin felt very comfortable after hearing it.

However, as the Clan Leader of the Stephen Family, Bajin would not be fooled by an idiot. He cared more about Li Xiang's personal abilities. Li Xiang's skills in Mecha were quite impressive and it would be a shame to eliminate him. Bajin knew, a controllable person was not terrifying. The ones hard to get through were dreaded. Fortunately, Bajin felt that he had pinned down Li Xiang's weakness and thus, he revised his decision.

Not only would Yuna not kill him, but she also had to take extra special care of him. However, Li Xiang also had his gentleman-like side. On the surface, he liked Yuna, but deep down he was still in love with the Blade Warrior. Every time the midnight bells rang, he would secretly take out the Blade Warrior's photo and stare at it under surveillance for a while. He was indeed an oddball…

Meanwhile, the Stephen Family had requested funding from the Bergheide Space Fleet and sent the detailed parameters of the Electromagnetic Whip's engineering project to the Space Fleet. This matter quickly drew the attention of Bergheide.

After a two-day technical analysis, the experts were shocked at this blockbuster bomb dropped by the Stephen Family. It was a true military-grade electromagnetic whip, a high-tech product far ahead of its time. Although the detailed parameters still needed further analysis, at a glance, there didn't seem to be any safety issues.

Of course, this was considered top-secret news, thus Bergheide did not disclose it. However, the military's response was disappointing, the safety and detailed parameters of the Electromagnetic Whip still needed further confirmation before it could be directly put into the battlefield. This probably needed a few months' time.

However, the Space Fleet held a dissenting view. After all, the Space Fleet was theoretically part of Bergheide, but in actuality, had separated a long time ago. The Stephen Family couldn't possibly wait that long.

Bajin considered his identity. He was a businessman. How could he let such highly-paid sophisticated technology gather dust for months? Money needed to be spent effectively, and as a monopolistic tycoon, the first battle was the best time to promote the electromagnetic whip. Maybe the war would end in a few months' time, who could predict current events? If there's no war, only an idiot would care about the equipment and the Stephen Family. Given that kind of effect, the Stephen Family would not win the public's heart and things they deserved.

With this in mind, Bajin decided that he could make use of his connections and the power of the Family and turn things around with the help of the Space Fleet. In no time, he dialed Branny's Heavenly Communication.

Upon receiving Bajin's reliable news, Branny was initially skeptical. It seemed too simple that such technological power would mysteriously fall into the hands of the Stephen Family. However, as soon as she learned that it had been verified by the experts, she dispelled her doubts.

If they could implement this technology into the Space Fleet in a short period of time, they would indeed achieve a significant victory, even a tide-turning victory. The war situation could not wait for those crappy results from the so-called experts. Many world-renowned experts were actually pseudoscience makers wearing an expert hat. Sometimes these chatterboxes could not compare to experienced technical staff. With this thought, Branny quickly dialed a military hotline…

Under the clear blue sky, Feng Yi calculated the time. Now, the departure of the Crimson Flame Legion should not be far away. He wondered what kind of action the Stephen Family would take and whether the plan would be successful. But in this living prison, except for waiting, he had no other choice.

At the same time, several new guests arrived at the Crimson Flame Legion's military base that day: Mu Tou, Ophelia, the Haier Brothers, and Sky Shadow, who were known as the 12 Stars. After learning about the Crimson Flame Legion's support route, the Sky Shadow Military Department specially arranged for these people to hitch a ride, which saved the high cost of direct teleportation. Of course, having them support now was a necessary part of the secret plan. As for the specific actions, probably only Greedy Wolf and these five knew.
