Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 586

Chapter 586: Chapter 267: Ancestral Land Chapter 586: Chapter 267: Ancestral Land The drone flew at an altitude of 25,000 meters, right above the second largest city in the United States, Los Angeles. The drone pushed its radar stealth ability to the limit; US Forces' radar systems below had no clue that an airplane was flying right above their heads. Looking down from an altitude of 25,000 meters, one could see dark clouds enveloping Los Angeles, with lightning flashing, thunder roaring, and torrential rain pouring down; yet at 25,000 meters, the sky was clear, calm, and cloud-free.

Looking down at Los Angeles, which resembled hell, Yan Fei felt a sense of clarity and exhilaration while also having many realizations. As long as one's position is high enough, even if Los Angeles is currently experiencing catastrophic weather, it poses no threat to oneself. To Yan Fei, the plight of Los Angeles was like watching a movie, and at most, he could only root for Los Angeles.

Out of consideration for his own safety, Yan Fei decided to accelerate his development pace and gain invincible strength to stand at the true pinnacle. Only then could he truly live as himself, face everything with equanimity, and be free from control and threats from anyone.

After rescuing Yang Qi, Yan Fei's chief scientist finally resumed his position, filling the last gap in Dream Technology's development. The Drone Upgrade yielded a Mind control device with powerful functions that could accelerate the technological research progress of Dream Technology. However, Yan Fei had not authorized anyone else to use this Mind control device, waiting for its true owner–Yang Qi. After the grand adventure in the United States, Yang Qi had completely stopped integrating into Human Society, shut himself away completely, and dedicated himself to research at Yan Fei's side without any distractions.

With Yang Qi's extraordinary intelligence, combined with his unbelievable learning and research abilities, and aided by the Mind control device, a piece of Black Technology, and the Auxiliary Brain's technology extrapolation system, Dream Technology's technical strength was bound to experience explosive growth.

The drone silently crossed over Los Angeles and entered the vast Pacific Ocean, swiftly heading towards Misty Island. Once he left the United States mainland, Yan Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief, meaning that he and Yang Qi were completely safe, with no one able to keep them in the United States anymore. Therefore, Yan Fei used the Auxiliary Brain to decode the omnipresent Satellite Communication Signal, entered Network World through these signals, and began to check whether the day's events had been reported by the News media in the United States.

The Auxiliary Brain lacked autonomous ability, so it couldn't search the Internet for news on its own, but under Yan Fei's control, its powerful information capturing and filtering functions were fully utilized. In just a short time, the Auxiliary Brain had collected all the events that had occurred in the past 24 hours, and then further subdivided and summarized them for Yan Fei's convenience in reading.

With the Auxiliary Brain's summaries, Yan Fei only had to glance at the news headlines to generally understand the content of the news. For news articles that piqued his interest, Yan Fei would open them for a detailed read. Then, Yan Fei discovered some interesting news: The incident of Yang Qi being wanted had drawn high attention from the Chinese Embassy in US, which had actively intervened, demanding that the US side rely on legal grounds to ensure the personal safety of suspect Yang Qi and strongly requested the Chinese side to join the US side in investigating the case of Yang Qi making a bomb and conducting a KB Attack in the United States.

In other words, after investigating the case, China didn't believe that Yang Qi was the suspect in the KB Attack; Yang Qi was innocent. Their request to jointly investigate was to prevent the United States from framing Yang Qi to achieve its purposes, calling a deer a horse.

The Chinese officials provided great support for Yang Qi on this issue, but on the other hand, the Beijing Research Institute where Yang Qi worked behaved oddly. Firstly, the deputy director who led the team to the United States produced a bunch of “so-called” evidence during an interview with US media, attempting to prove that Yang Qi was the perpetrator behind the KB Attack, and then through accompanying team members, they exposed Yang Qi's supposed abhorrent character, his intense hatred for the United States, and his immense dissatisfaction with society. With these people's testimonies, Yang Qi suddenly launching a KB Attack in the United States seemed reasonable.

Meanwhile, domestically in China, the Beijing Research Institute immediately issued a notice, first downgrading Yang Qi's position from a researcher to a logistical support staff member. Then, based on Yang Qi being wanted by the US Police Department and presumed to have committed a crime in the United States, demeaning the nation's dignity and bringing shame to the Research Institute, they unilaterally terminated Yang Qi's employment contract and dismissed him from their institute.

After seeing the actions taken by the Beijing Research Institute across the Pacific Ocean, Yan Fei was somewhat puzzled. The Research Institute was Yang Qi's workplace, so they knew Yang Qi's situation best and understood that Yang Qi was not a KB culprit. Why did they insist on framing him and then dismissing him? They knew Yang Qi's research ability was incredibly robust; most of the institute's research achievements were attained through his assistance, and losing Yang Qi meant they would lose the source of their accomplishments. Why would they commit such an act that was harmful to others and not beneficial to themselves?

On the other hand, the Chinese officials were still supporting Yang Qi, not considering him to be a KB culprit as claimed by the US side; Yang Qi was at most a suspect. Before the country made an official statement, the Research Institute preemptively reached a conclusion about Yang Qi's case and expelled him–were they acting against the state's intentions? If the situation were to take a turn for the better and it was proven that Yang Qi was not a KB culprit, how would the leadership of this Research Institute explain themselves to the country?
