Chapter 346: Chapter 306: Bloody Fangs

Lu Li could roughly guess why the other party was calling.

It wasn’t because John Moody III secretly tipped them off.

At that moment, Lu Li had activated his domain, possessing the “regional omniscience” ability, and hadn’t detected any sign of John Moody III betraying him.

Moreover, he had only just left John Moody III’s room, so even if the other party made a call, it couldn’t have been that quick.

Therefore, there was only one possibility.

It was that his appearance in New York today destroyed the Times Building, leading the Morgan Clan to believe he was there for revenge.

Anyone could see that ancestral beings were unstoppable.

As one of the world’s leading aristocratic families, the Morgan Clan naturally understood this logic too.

In other words, the Morgan Clan believed that if they couldn’t come up with any counterattack measures at this time, their family would face destruction.

As the saying goes, a cornered dog will jump over a wall.

Since the Morgan Clan could not withstand the brutal steps of the ancestral being, they resorted to the most malicious tactic, which was a threat.

If he dared to do anything to the Morgan Clan, they would retaliate with vile actions against his parents and those close to him.

Trying to use this move to threaten him into inaction.

Lu Li couldn’t help but sigh, indeed, his parents and those around him were his greatest weaknesses.

He could believe that the Morgan Clan had indeed made such preparations, even sending assassins to Huaxia.

Once the news of the Morgan Clan’s annihilation spread, those assassins would immediately target his parents and those close to him.

In any other situation, facing such a dilemma, he might have had to swallow his pride and endure.

Unfortunately, he had already completed his fourth deep evolution, his power different from the past.

“Your family might not have just started preparing today; the personnel may already be in place.”

Lu Li looked towards Massachusetts, “I anticipated it and had Gu Wei arrange elite guards by my parents’ side.”

Thinking of this, he squinted his eyes, “Of course, to be safe, I’ll capture all of you alive, scan your memories, and then immediately return to Huaxia to root out those lurking assassins… in one fell swoop!”

As for why capture instead of kill them, it’s because Lu Li always kept his promises.

He had vowed to wipe out the enemy completely in fifteen days.

A man must keep his word and act on what he said!

Most importantly, should this matter become known afterward, it would serve as an even stronger deterrent.

I may not know when you were born.

But I can decide when you will die.

Even for a mighty clan like the Morgan Clan, this holds true.

Is there any method more intimidating than this hardline approach in the world?

Lu Li put away all his thoughts.

A surge of white light enveloped him.

Racing towards Massachusetts!

The hunt had begun!

…

The news about countries uniting to develop anti-ancestral mecha drew much attention.

Before this news broke, everyone saw the ancestral mecha combat group, which couldn’t be detected by radar or satellites, possessing such destructive power, and thought it was invincible.

However, now that countries dared to announce their joint efforts to counter the ancestral mecha combat group, it indicated confidence in their ability to develop such equipment.

Otherwise, the countries wouldn’t dare to provoke — or rather, warn the ancestral beings this way, telling them not to dream of dominating.

But we can’t say all countries.

After all, most countries didn’t even have stealth fighters, let alone the resources to develop equipment against the ancestral mecha.

To be precise, this news was from a few superpowers, warning the ancestral beings not to act recklessly just because they had a mecha combat group.

As expected, moments later, this news climbed to the top of trending topics, with many joining the discussion.

“Is it real?”

“Those mechas can’t even be detected by satellites.”

“Why does this news sound like nonsense to me?”

“I also think it’s nonsense.”

“Right, the odds of it being nonsense are high. We don’t even know the principle behind how the Ancestor Mecha Combat Group evades radar and satellites, so how could there be a way to counteract it?”

“Radar can’t detect them, yet you say there’s equipment to counteract them. I find that plausible. But for satellites unable to capture them, you say there’s a countermeasure? Honestly, I really don’t believe that.”

“Exactly.”

“Who could believe it?”

“But the news makes it sound quite convincing, as if it’s not a con.”

“Bro, you might not be aware, the principle of satellite imaging mainly relies on reflective optical imaging, multispectral imaging, radar imaging, etc., and these imaging methods all involve collecting visible light or specific bands. Nowadays, a small number of stealth fighters worldwide can avoid being detected by satellites at night when light is dim. Even so, no country can solve this problem. As for the Ancestor Mecha Combat Group, they can refract various lights during the day so that satellites can’t capture them, indicating that the principles of satellite imaging don’t work on mechas at all. After my explanation, you should be able to analyze the truth of the news?”

“It seems the odds of it being fake are high.”

“Not necessarily entirely fake, after all many strategic weapons and devices are not publicly disclosed by any country. Perhaps a few superpowers really have a way to counteract mechas.”

On the other hand, perhaps to steady the global populace’s heart.

With the emergence of this news, one after another, world-renowned military equipment experts also popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain, discussing how to counteract mechas.

In the Ugly Country, a top military equipment expert named Louis, in an interview with reporters, said: “The most frightening aspect of the Ancestor Mecha Combat Group is ’stealth.’ As for other aspects, personally, I don’t find them scary. Many stealth fighters can perform actions similar to those of the Mecha Combat Group, it’s just not as simple. Regarding the ’stealth’ ability of the Ancestor Mecha Combat Group, after a series of analyses, we’ve reached a conclusion: the mecha’s outer coating is made from special materials, likely an upgraded version of stealth bomber coating. Hence, we can thoroughly research it shortly and develop counteracting equipment. Please don’t worry, the Ancestor and his Mecha Combat Group aren’t that scary!”

This top military equipment expert spoke quite practically, without rambling nonsense.

Another military expert named Carlisle was different: “I admit the Ancestor Mecha Combat Group is somewhat formidable. We need some time to research counteracting mecha ’stealth’ equipment. But the Ancestor himself isn’t that frightening. He can’t evade radar and satellite surveillance like the Mecha Combat Group. So, if necessary, we can fully utilize satellites to locate the Ancestor’s whereabouts and then launch a fierce attack on him.”

One of his partners also said: “Carlisle has a point. The formidable part of the Ancestor lies within those Mecha Combat Groups. While he himself may be a superhuman, he’s not comparable to mechas. For instance, when he arrived in New York, he’s already under our control. So everyone, rest assured. If the Ancestor dares do anything in the Ugly Country, we will capture him.”

These words are purely nonsense.

When the Ancestor appeared in New York, those military experts were startled.

Because they hadn’t detected him at all.

They made such statements simply because they felt the Ancestor wasn’t as terrifying as the Mecha Combat Group.

Since the Mecha Combat Group hasn’t come to the Ugly Country, their bluster won’t be exposed as lies.

Thus, they’re lying through their teeth to stabilize the people’s emotions and maintain international stature.

To prevent people from feeling today’s occurrences in New York made them lose face.

In other words, these military experts and equipment experts didn’t want to stand up.

It’s just that given the circumstances, the big shots ordered them to stand out.

Simply put, what these military experts and equipment experts say isn’t entirely of their own volition.

Rather, they represent the big shots of some superpowers.

Consequently, once the “authorities” stood up to soothe the populace, many believed them.

A spokesperson for a financial group said, “I’ve always believed our great Bald Eagle is the strongest in the world, never worried that the Ancestor and his Mecha Combat Group could pose any threat to us.”

The sect leader of another financial group said personally: “I’m grateful to be born in such a powerful country, no need to worry about the Ancestor and his Mecha Combat Group wreaking havoc and chaos.”

Another financial group’s “Crown Prince” said, “If the Ancestor stays on our side peacefully, so be it, otherwise he’ll regret it!”

These people represent collective interests.

Of course, they must stand up at key moments to soothe the populace.

To prevent everyone from panicking because the Ancestor came to the Ugly Country.

Experts and financial group big shots have all stood up to express their views, providing a strong soothing effect.

In an instant, many irrational citizens believed them, shouting furiously.

“Right, the Ancestor isn’t so scary!”

“If he dares do anything, he’ll not be able to escape!”

“He’d better stay here obediently, or we’ll fire and show him what it feels like!”

“The Ancestor is merely flaunting with the Mecha Combat Group, without them he’s nothing!”

“We’ll monitor the Ancestor with radar and satellites constantly!”

“Haha, he can’t avoid our radar and satellite surveillance, he can be anywhere but unseen!”

“Indeed, this place isn’t Mexico, I don’t think he’ll dare make trouble here.”

“Unless he has eaten the heart of a bear and the guts of a leopard!”

“Tonight, I can finally sleep peacefully and not worry about the Ancestor anymore!”

Those easily incited netizens were beaming with joy as if they won a victory.

…

And at this very moment, Lu Li, who everyone thought didn’t dare do anything on the Bald Eagle’s side, had already shown his bloody fangs!
