The Great Federation, specifically in the Sherwood District, is home to the headquarters of the Military-Industrial Complex. This place can be described as a fortress, operating like a tightly sealed iron barrel, impervious to intrusion.
Logically speaking, it would be nearly impossible for the senior management of the Great Federation to secretly arrest the Arms Tycoons if they remained here indefinitely. However, humans have an innate desire for freedom, and the Arms Tycoons are no exception; they frequently roam far and wide in search of entertainment.
Only Old John, who is overly fond of power and too old to enjoy such pursuits, resides near the headquarters year-round. Activating his Optical Camouflage, he quietly approached Xu Lie nearby and deactivated the UFO's cloaking mode, revealing it in mid-air.
To the outside world, it appeared as if it had suddenly materialized. For a few seconds after its appearance, no one noticed. It was only when someone observed that the sky had darkened and looked up in curiosity that they exclaimed the classic line: "Look! A UFO!"
Nearby onlookers scoffed at this claim, saying that such jokes wouldn’t fool even a child anymore. "Is it really a UFO? An alien life form’s UFO? The kind that has appeared in major cities before?!"
Panic ensued as people shouted to run away, fearing that aliens had come to abduct them for experiments. Within half a minute of the UFO's appearance, chaos erupted below as people scattered in all directions without any order.
Some remained calm and made their way to the underground parking lot, while others panicked and dashed into nearby shops, slamming doors behind them. After about five minutes, the streets beneath the UFO were deserted; Xu Lie had caused what could only be described as a clean sweep.
The UFO hovered right above the Military-Industrial Complex Headquarters, and several Arms Tycoons who received reports were quite excited. Had they succeeded? Had their efforts attracted alien life?
Without hesitation, they instructed their subordinates to go outside and welcome the visitors. The subordinates were terrified, genuinely fearing that stepping outside would turn them into experimental subjects. Fortunately, the Arms Tycoons had wealth and influence; a casual bonus handed out on the spot made their subordinates forget their fears and rush outside to greet the aliens.
Inside the UFO, Xu Lie was momentarily unconcerned with the reactions from the Military-Industrial Complex Headquarters when he received contact from Anthony: "What’s going on?"
Understanding Anthony's character as a Bionic Person, Xu Lie knew that both Anthony and Charles typically reported daily at fixed times. Direct contact like this usually indicated an urgent situation.
"Yes, sir," Anthony replied with a serious tone as he shared his latest discovery: "I have been running a hacking program to monitor all members of the Great Federation's senior management."
Then it was discovered that members of the Hawk Faction had quietly dispatched members of the Special Forces to the Great Federation, Sherwood District. The Special Forces had not received any specific mission; they were only instructed to maintain civilian disguises and get as close as possible to the Military-Industrial Complex Building. The specific mission required the Special Forces Captain to be on standby for orders from Senior Management.
Considering that you are currently located near the Military Industrial Complex Headquarters, whether these Hawk Faction members intend to launch a surprise attack on the building or assassinate you, I must report this matter.
What are they coming for? This was Xu Lie's first reaction. He trusted his instincts and maintained constant communication with Anthony, activating the UFO's scanning function.
Sure enough, he discovered hidden members of the Special Forces on the rooftops of several nearby buildings. He also scanned their equipment, noting that they were armed with Long Guns and Short Cannons, and their gear was quite complete. Unfamiliar with Alien Technology, the Special Forces members were unaware of their exposure and were peering at the UFO through the windows of the stairwell.
