Chapter 394: Chapter 392: Breaking Away from Dependency

Several days later, all was calm.

During this time, the President of Eltoya was extremely busy with visiting leaders from various countries, signing numerous engineering contracts.

Meanwhile, many large and small engineering companies were jointly established by countries and the Heiside State, pouring into the vast desert of Heiside State to search for Lilith’s body.

After handling domestic affairs, Zhao Ling hurriedly flew to Heiside State to visit countries in search for Wei Tianyang.

At this crucial juncture, Wei Tianyang chose to keep a low profile, spending his days engrossed in reading, no longer caring to pay attention to the outside world.

He shoved the mobile phone given by the United Council into a paper box and kicked it under the bed; he no longer needed the device.

By sealing away this phone, he had essentially discarded everything the United Council had offered him, including the world passport, inexhaustible money, and contact methods of leaders from various countries.

However, he felt no regret. Since traveling into space and witnessing the entire Earth with his own eyes, he had felt a profound impact.

Past angers, pursuits, and morally stirring incidents all seemed meaningless.

Standing on the ground, it was impossible to find greater meaning; such things had to be sought in the sky.

The concepts created by humans merely served to justify their actions; to the universe, whether human behavior was just or not meant nothing.

Once he detached himself from the ground, the struggles that occurred there, the wars ignited by different political demands between states, nations, and regions, could all be considered a civil war among humans.

On this lonely planet, people create various excuses, then kill each other.

Moreover, the books recorded the same.

Different authors with different stands wrote about the same war, and young people derived strength from their books.

This was the most absurd part.

Everyone, standing on their premise, was just. If everyone was just, then justice became just an excuse.

Wei Tianyang couldn’t deny the existence of justice; he had indeed felt it, had sensed evil, and his anger emerged from it.

Feelings can’t lie, but inside the face of evil, is it really just justice? Only justice?

What exactly was the emotion that arose from witnessing undesirable events?

He closed the book and through the window, he saw Baphomet defecating on the street corner; two gang members quickly approached to clean the pavement with shovels.

Rada Gan had prepared a new room for him on the fourth floor.

He now lived alone while Yaha and Baphomet resided in the old rooms upstairs, the goat sleeping in the bed he used to occupy.

A black muscle car pulled up downstairs, and Rada Gan along with two gang members exited the vehicle; he seemed a bit angry, slamming the car door heavily.

Wei Tianyang was curious about what could have agitated Rada Gan.

After a while, he heard footsteps coming up the stairs, and Rada Gan knocked on the door, waiting outside.

Wei Tianyang looked at the wooden door, the lock automatically opened, and the door slowly swung open.

He could control more and more elements now, plastic, metal, copper, wood... Sometimes, he could hardly distinguish his own location, because controlling them felt too much like manipulating his own limbs.

"Wei."

Rada Gan entered and quickly closed the door, bowing his head.

"I am not some feudal emperor; let’s dispense with such formalities," Wei Tianyang said.

He nodded, quickly walked over to his side, and said, "The guy who issued me the construction license and land purchase certificate has had second thoughts."

"Why?" Wei Tianyang was calm.

"With the recent influx of state delegations, they are here for Lilith’s body. The leader of the insurgent group I supported was beheaded," Rada Gan said with a helpless smile.

"So, the threat being eliminated, their desire to retract their promise is understandable," Wei Tianyang nodded.

"Even though this was my doing from the start, once a promise is made, it should not be retracted," Rada Gan stated.

"And what are your plans?" Wei Tianyang asked.

"I’m taking everyone with me tonight to find him," Rada Gan said.

"How many people do we have in our gang?" Wei Tianyang asked.

"All together, President, we have 120 people, and we can pull together more than 100 to fight," Rada Gan replied.

"Our weapons are outdated," Wei Tianyang noted.

He reached to his side, and Rada Gan didn’t know what he was going to do and just watched quietly.

After a while, an automatic rifle floated through the wooden floor and slowly drifted into his hand.

Rada Gan was stunned, this was a rifle hidden in the underground arsenal.

"Type 91," Wei Tianyang said.

He held the gun, examining it, "The army of Chicken Snake Country uses this gun."

The rifle slipped from Wei Tianyang’s hand, suspended in midair, then slowly disassembled into a jumbled heap of floating parts.

"This is a product of the last century, and moreover... it’s a handcrafted imitation," Wei Tianyang remarked.

He reassembled the gun and leaned it against the table.

"Now all weapons have pheromone locks. Buying unlocked weapons from the black market isn’t easy. Besides, this isn’t Azaha. I can’t purchase large quantities of arms in the name of the nation; I can only buy outdated goods from small black market traders," Rada Gan explained.

Wei Tianyang nodded. Although a bit old, without AR-assisted aiming, quick-release magazines, or various attachments, they were enough for gang warfare.

"Take this," Wei Tianyang said.

As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of documents and handed them to Rada Gan.

"What is this... this is! The formula for the neutralizer?" Rada Gan could barely contain his joy.

Recently, Rada Gan mainly purchased neutralizers from the black market. After leaks in the black market, many places were stocking it, and the channels for purchase were always being hit—buy once, one less opportunity.

It had been convenient to get the neutralizer in Heisai State, but after Wei Tianyang cleaned out the black factories in Gambia, the supply chain was affected.

And long before, Rada Gan had tried to use his superpower as little as possible, relying solely on existing funds for operations.

"Is this real?!" Rada Gan was somewhat incredulous.

"This is just the beginning," Wei Tianyang said.

"Beginning?" Rada Gan asked.

Wei Tianyang nodded.

Ever since he had been into space, his plans weren’t just about a single hotel anymore.

Humans live in a fabricated world, but he sought absolute meaning. If the day of division was to come, he needed the ability to break free from human creations.

"I might not be able to say right now... but there might come a day when we will break away from this fictitious world; we must first learn to detach from our dependency on this world," Wei Tianyang said.

The neutralizer was merely a minuscule beginning. Food? Water? Air...

Rada Gan felt a surge of excitement, sensing the sunlight of that other world.

"Are you taking everyone with you tonight?" Wei Tianyang asked again.

"Yes, after all, that official’s mansion is guarded by private soldiers. We’re not many, and that won’t cover the grounds," Rada Gan explained.

"I can’t come to help you. My appearance alone would cause many... other issues," Wei Tianyang said.

"I know, I just came to tell you about my plans for tonight. And then..." Rada Gan said.

"I already know, Rada Gan. This street is hardly peaceful; you mean to say someone might take the chance to seize our territory?" Wei Tianyang said.

"That’s what I’m worried about," Rada Gan replied.

"Go with confidence," Wei Tianyang said.

With Wei Tianyang’s affirmation, Rada Gan bowed again and then left the room, relieved.

Wei Tianyang slowly sank the rifle back into the floor, letting it return to where it had been previously.
