Chapter 148: Chapter 148: United Government Assets_1

By the time they got home, it was nearly ten o’clock.

As expected, Lu Xiang was sitting on the living room sofa, her eyelids lowered, and she could see from a distance that the tablet was filled with densely packed text.

Although the atmosphere was supposed to be calm, her words completely shattered it.

"Tesla technology has arranged a private jet for Princess Lieyang flying to The First Region at 10:30 a.m. The jet will land on the rooftop, and our mission is to ensure that she safely boards it."

"So soon?"

Song Lan was surprised. The timing was a bit tight. Although he and Elmon had made some progress in exploring psychic abilities today, mastering it completely was still a long way off. Even if they worked overtime tonight, they wouldn’t make any groundbreaking progress before 10:30 am tomorrow.

If psychic abilities were so easy to master, top-tier psychics from the United Government and other "outsiders" would have been everywhere by now.

"The United Government has realized that the Seventeenth District is gradually slipping out of their control, which is understandable."

The rebellion of Tesla’s bionic people, and the cyber barricades breached by hackers, all pointed to the fact that even within the United Government’s territory, it was far from as safe as the Review Meeting thought.

The only thing that surprised Lu Xiang was that Tesla technology informed them of this news and hoped that before the arrival of the private jet, Princess Lieyang would stay with them. This was almost like providing them with an opportunity on purpose.

Although the breach in Tesla’s security system dealt a significant blow to them, and they had recalled all their technical staff today to check for possible loopholes in the security system, working overtime and unable to spare any more hands. However, they were only a law enforcement department of a border city and were not any match for the Rebel Army.

It was as absurd as hiring a retired neighborhood security guard to protect national leaders.

But such an absurd scene was truly happening.

Her instincts told her that there were definitely some secrets they hadn’t noticed yet.

"Don’t stress too much."

Seeing Song Lan looking tense, Lu Xiang comforted him, "Even if Princess Lieyang is transferred to The First Region, it’s not like we’re left empty-handed."

First of all, the military hardware promised by Tesla technology had arrived as scheduled.

Allowing Princess Lieyang to leave actually complied with their previous cooperation agreement. Moreover, they had learned through this incident that the United Government viewed the Seventeenth District as a frontier outpost for a war with the Rebel Army. Not only that, but they also learned the reason why the Rebel Army attacked the Twelfth Nation, as well as the batch of nutritional injections co-developed by Cloud Biological Pharmaceutical and Tesla technology...

As long as they continue to investigate the plague that broke out in The Seventh Country in 2158, the truth will surface sooner or later.

Perhaps Princess Lieyang was just one episode on this path.

"Zilla--!"

The familiar sound of electrical interference broke the silence of the living room.

After the tablet screen was covered in static, an app named "Director Lu Directly Initiated" appeared on the tablet’s desktop.

It was the Rebel Army’s hacker again.

After a few encounters, they had gradually gotten used to the other party’s greeting style.

"Let’s open it first and see."

Song Lan said.

For the Rebel Army trying to stop Princess Lieyang from being sent to The First Region, the time that was left was also running short.

In fact, the Rebel Army was much more anxious than they were. After all, for the law enforcers of the Seventeenth District, the departure of Princess Lieyang wouldn’t have any substantial consequences; at worst, it would only be regret at not being able to rescue her successfully.

However, the Rebel Army had come all the way to the Seventeenth District. Their purpose was probably not as simple as just saving her.

And the program suddenly appearing on the tablet screen revealed the reason why the Rebel Army was so intent on Princess Lieyang.

This information showed that Lieyang is not her real name, but the name of the "Armament Concept" she carries.

At the age of seven, Lieyang demonstrated impressive talent in psychic abilities. In order to better develop her abilities, her father, who was the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Twelfth Nation at the time, secretly sent her to the Seventh District to undergo a psychic development program.

This program lasted for nearly six years. During this time, Lieyang’s father, with the secret support of the United Government, became the new leader of the Twelfth Nation. When Lieyang returned home, she had become the beloved General Lieyang of the populace.

But in reality, she was also the only survivor among the children who participated in the psychic development project.

The perfect fusion of psychic abilities and prosthetics.

Every prosthetic implanted in her body has been calculated meticulously by the research department of the United Government, all for the sake of maximizing her abilities.

This kind of amplification, close to pushing growth, would cause a huge mental burden on the psychic. Children who had amplifiers implanted would almost inevitably end up having mental breakdowns.

"When I was in school, I read articles about this."

Lu Xiang began. "Prosthetic Doctors in the core region generally believe that prosthetic implantation technology can cause unimaginable mental stress on psychics. The act of implanting operating systems into psychics is prohibited by law."

In fact, according to data from the Prosthetic Implant Weekly, when the degree of prosthetic implantation exceeds 50%, the implantee could show symptoms of mental agitation. As this number increases, the chance of agitation also increases, and the probability of psychics experiencing this is more than ten times higher than that of ordinary people.

Some experts believe that this is the result of a conflict between consciousness and mechanical calculations.

The existence of Princess Lieyang could even be deemed a scientific miracle.

"The Review Meeting never intended to support the Twelfth Nation from the start; they’re calling back assets belonging to the United Government."

Lu Xiang suddenly understood.

Moving towards The First Region to gather reinforcements was a signal conveyed to her by the parasite inside Lieyang.

If she had insisted on staying in the Twelfth Nation to fight the Esinvig Army, she would likely have ended up falling in battle. One person, Princess Lieyang, could not possibly bridge the gap between the two sides.

After recalling Princess Lieyang, the research department could continue to research based on her as a template. If they could integrate psychic abilities with prosthetic technology, the rescuer’s combat capability would be elevated.

Calling back the city’s general before the war began...

This also meant that the United Government was abandoning the people of the Twelfth Nation, leaving them to the mercy of the Esinvig Army.

Handing the people of a country over to a notorious tyrant.

Even Lu Xiang hadn’t imagined that the Review Meeting would make such a decision.

"Tomorrow at 10:15, I will try to cut off Lieyang’s system and buy you a quarter of an hour"

"As for how to use this quarter of an hour, it’s up to you"

"The Esinvig Army sends its regards"

These three lines at the end of all the information stood out remarkably.

After ten seconds, the app disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed.
