The Hundred-Man Team wasted no time and directly contacted the property management, revealing their identity as part of the Military-Industrial Complex. They ordered the elevators to be shut down and sealed off the front and back entrances.
From the ground up, a meticulous search was conducted, aiming to prevent any members of the Special Forces from escaping through the windows of the lower floors. With ample manpower, the Hundred-Man Team even stationed personnel at the lower-level windows, leaving no opportunity for escape.
The residents here relied on the Military-Industrial Complex for their livelihoods, and detailed information about them could be easily obtained. In contrast, the members of the Special Forces had never lived here and possessed no information; it was impossible for them to remain undetected.
Thus, the outcome was predictable. The assassination attempt by the Hawk Faction could be deemed a complete failure. Wiping his cold sweat away, Gratt managed to put on a warm smile: "Esteemed Lie, we will do our best to leave a few alive. How would you like to punish these audacious fools?"
Xu Lie had no particular thoughts on this: "Leave it to you to handle. We can't keep up with everything on our end."
Gratt's imagination ran wild: "Alien Life must be able to capture people for experiments anytime and anywhere; they certainly don't lack subjects. If we want to please them in the future, we should steer clear of this aspect."
The reality was that Xu Lie only had knowledge of Test Tube Baby technology—what research could he possibly conduct alone? However, he did take note of the Hawk Faction in his mind. In the previous Script World, Cang Hai Jue, Chen Tao had made multiple assassination attempts; that was Xu Lie's own sanctioned assassination for subjugation.
Now, in the Black and White world, how dare the Hawk Faction brazenly employ such tactics? Did they really think Xu Lie was malleable?
With misunderstandings cleared up and the assassination attempt by the Hawk Faction dealt with, Gratt's smile grew even brighter: "Since we learned that you esteemed guests are preparing to study group psychology, we have made arrangements to provide you with a sufficient number of disturbances. I wonder if this little drama we present will meet your satisfaction?"
Several Arms Tycoons had been issuing directives since last night to all representatives across the Great Federation, including supported Puppets and Confidants in various branches. They urged them to stir up independence while not concealing their plans regarding Mi Dun. Whenever they interacted with others, they made sure to emphasize one point: make as much noise as possible to encourage Alien Life to conduct more extensive research.
They believed in Alien Life's surveillance capabilities, which is why they boldly acted this way. The results were evidently fruitful!
Facing Gratt's respectful inquiry, Xu Lie was indifferent. His focus was on revenge against the Hawk Faction, but first, they needed to get down to business: they were allocating some resources to conduct research in this area.
"Here’s the deal: if you succeed in the end and the Great Federation splits into several autonomous regions, then the rewards I promised to the Great Federation will be yours to claim. Of course, if you ultimately fail, I won’t step in to help you."
In simple terms, it meant that you and the Great Federation would be in a winner-takes-all situation.
Gratt and several other Arms Tycoons sparkled with excitement, trembling with joy! It was happening; the harvest was finally arriving!
After all the time spent playing the fool, wasn’t this what they had been waiting for? As long as they could secure the rewards from Alien Life, they would obtain the elixir of immortality that Old John had betrayed them for.
Perhaps they could even acquire other Alien Technologies that would elevate the Military-Industrial Complex to new heights! Ambition, boundless ambition, began to rise within Gratt and the other Arms Tycoons.
