Since he had already received information from Anthony, how could Xu Lie possibly step out of the UFO and let himself be targeted by a Sniper Rifle?
Although he had undergone genetic enhancement, boosting his physical attributes to the point where he could dodge bullets, this ability was only effective in direct confrontations. If a Special Forces operative launched a sniper attack from his blind spot, it would have little to do with reflexes. Moreover, the bullet from a Sniper Rifle exits the barrel at a speed of at least several hundred meters per second, making it nearly impossible for Xu Lie to evade.
As long as he remained within the realm of Carbon-Based Life, it was fundamentally unlikely that he could withstand such weaponry. Therefore, Xu Lie had no intention of taking the hit and then retaliating in a show of strength. The Military-Industrial Complex that warmly welcomed him was simply the best tool he could utilize.
Faced with such enthusiastic reception, it would be somewhat disrespectful not to make an appearance. Thus, the UFO effortlessly hacked into the building's computer system and quickly navigated through the surveillance equipment to locate several Arms Tycoons.
The Arms Tycoons were surprisingly synchronized; at that moment, they were not alone in their offices but gathered in a Conference Room. Several computers in the room displayed footage from the first floor. One of the computers exited its current screen and replaced it with Xu Lie’s image: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to human customs, I should thank you for your warm welcome."
This time, he did not use a mechanical synthesized voice; after all, with the UFO present, others would naturally fill in the blanks regarding Alien Affairs technology and would not suspect Xu Lie himself.
The Arms Tycoons were still startled and exchanged glances, each seeing the same message reflected in one another's eyes: that Alien Affairs technology far surpassed theirs in terms of cybersecurity. How long had it been? They had silently infiltrated the building's computer system without triggering even a single alarm from their firewall.
The Arms Tycoons dared not be complacent; although they were frightened, they had finally attracted Alien Affairs' attention. It was impossible to remain silent just because they were startled. A few seconds of eye contact was enough for them to react.
The middle-aged man named Gratt, who had been previously discussed among them, stepped forward to make contact: "Esteemed Xu Lie."
Xu Lie had casually assigned himself a long string of numbers that he couldn't even remember, yet Gratt recalled it clearly. He articulated each letter and number with confidence, indicating that they must have practiced extensively behind closed doors.
Xu Lie waved his hand dismissively: "Just call me Xu Lie. Our designation holds no meaning for you humans."
The letters meant for you humans are merely a conversion expression of the native metal from my homeland.
Gratt and the Arms Tycoons present were completely baffled; none of them understood what Xu Lie was talking about.
A conversion expression of native metal? It sounded sophisticated and high-end! Unfortunately, they lacked the technology to grasp its meaning.
Due to the privileges of being an actor, the camera focused on Xu Lie, and the audience joined in to watch the spectacle.
"Impressive! I can’t understand a word. Is there anyone with a good brain who can analyze this?"
"Don’t rely too much on the experts; what if they don’t understand either?"
Seeing these comments filled with confusion, Xu Lie could only think that not knowing was indeed the right response. He himself had no idea what it was all about; if someone actually understood, that would be truly bizarre.
Coughing lightly, Gratt, who was quite sharp-minded, decided that since Xu Lie had stated that the numbering held no significance for humans, it was best not to dwell on it.
After all, the urgent matter at hand was to win over Alien Affairs: "Esteemed Lie, I..."
Not giving Gratt more time to express his respect, Xu Lie suddenly brought up a new topic: "However, your way of expressing welcome is quite enthusiastic."
You’ve brought so many firearms.
Gratt and several Arms Tycoons initially wore smiles on their faces.
Enthusiasm was good; they felt they had already achieved the highest level of welcoming ceremony. They even set up a banner and moved stock from their warehouse to create this effect.
