Chapter 670 - Child’s Play (2/2)
Boom!
The entire safehouse shook. Everyone else could not maintain balance anymore and fell onto the ground, taking slight damage.
The interface immediately received a lot of combat information. Han Xiao instantly opened and read through it.
The level of everyone there was significantly lower than his, so their attributes were all crystal clear.
Including the Stardragon leader, the status bar of everyone in the room had a special status on it.
[Memory Modification): The memories of this person are modified.
Remaining time: 2 days 13 hours.
“No wonder…”
All his doubts were cleared—this was the reason that the Six Nations had turned on him.
This was undoubtedly an act of those hunters. He did not know what kind of memories the enemies had given the Six Nations’ leaders, but they seemed to have forgotten how strong he was. No wonder they were resisting so meaninglessly, even dreaming of taking back power from his hands and overthrowing Bennett’s forces.
A person’s personality was decided by their experiences. Once their memories changed, their personality would shift, too. Some Psychics who knew special techniques or Espers with those kinds of abilities were able to do things like this, so there was definitely someone like that among the enemies.
Such things were useless to stronger people. Stronger Supers had higher mental resistance. However, Planet Aquamarine only had a few decades’ history of Supers. The strongest among them was just Grade C. In front of a Calamity Grade, they were still weaklings that could be toyed with as they liked.
Changing one’s memory was a rather subtle and hidden measure, other than Supers with psychic abilities, the other class Supers would not be able to discover what happened to these people instantly.
But Han Xiao was an exception.
The enemies most likely think I won’t be able to discover what they did because I’m a Mechanic.
Han Xiao sneered in his mind.
Since the enemies could modify memories, it was meaningless for him to do anything to these government officials as the enemies would be able to modify those people’s memories again.
Suddenly, Han Xiao had an idea.
This kind of ability has to be cast at a close range. The status duration on these people is only two and a half days. By then, the hidden enemy will definitely secretly appear and modify their memories again… Hehe, I will then be able to discover their location.
Han Xiao planted an Observer’s Mark on the Stardragon leader before pretending he knew nothing about the memory modification and acting like he should have acted-threatening the Stardragon leader to stop the declaration of war.
The government officials present had forgotten about Han Xiao’s strength, so they were now terrified and gave in under Han Xiao’s threats. They gave orders on the spot and released the captured officials at the same time.
Han Xiao saw his old friend Gu Hui, but he only glanced at him and did not intend to say hello. Since the enemies were still hidden, it was not the time.
After witnessing the Stardragon leader complete his orders, Han Xiao turned around and immediately left the Stardragon capital.
The Stardragon leader and the other officials could not believe it. Was that all? They had thought that they were going to die for sure.
The captured officials, including Gu Hui, were all very glad that Han Xiao did not kill those people. Such gentle measures clearly meant that he was giving them a chance.
Due to this mistake, Gu Hui and many officials decided that they had to impeach the current leader. They could not let this maniac continue leading the nation.
Afterward, Han Xiao visited the remaining five nations and convinced every one of them.
He could only plant five Observer’s Marks, the mark he had planted on Lagi had already been wiped away by Austin after completing its job.
As Promotion was around the corner, Han Xiao swapped out all the Observer’s Mark targets and gave them to five national leaders. He then returned to Black Star City and waited for the Observer’s Marks to provide useful information. This was like fishing -it required patience.
To his surprise, the hidden enemies did not attack him during this time. What could they be waiting for? Were they observing him?
Knowing what had happened to Albert, the enemies seemed to be very cautious and were confirming if he had really fallen for the trap.
A few hours later, the Six Nations withdrew the war declarations at the same time. Countless people were cheering and overjoyed.
However, before they could even enjoy the contentment, just one day after, everyone was dumbfounded by the Six Nations’ actions.
Having just withdrawn the war declaration, the Six Nations launched missiles at Black Star City the following day!
As if their compromise one day ago was just to earn the time to prepare.
Most missiles were intercepted midair, and the galactic level protective shield of Black Star City stopped the rest of the missiles. There were no casualties. However, everyone in Black Star City was furious at the completely perfidious Six Nations.
Even the people of the Six Nations could not believe
it.
Has our government really gone insane?
Are they asking to be killed? Will they only stop when Black Star kills all of them?
Han Xiao, however, was not angry at all. It was clear that this had happened because the enemies had modified the Six Nations’ leaders’ memories again. The political conflicts of a surface civilization were no different from children playing house to Calamity Grades.
The good news was, he did not have to wait two days to obtain useful information.
Through the Observer’s Marks, an enemy finally appeared.
“These people finally showed themselves.”
Han Xiao squinted his eyes.
Just one day later, Gu Hui was imprisoned once again before he could execute his plan.
Being imprisoned the second time, he was not even angry anymore.
What is this?
Does the leader think that matters of national importance are just like children playing house, doing whatever they want?
Of course, Gu Hui did not know that the memories of all those officials had been modified. He was completely speechless toward those people who had once been his colleagues.
