Chapter 422: You Have No Right to Remain Silent

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Nice, nice.” Fang Ning looked below from midair.

Those spiritually-controlled mechs were aligned in order on the training ground and looked intimidating. They were the product of the perfect combination of both modern technology and vitality, and the formula transformed these basic military assistance robots into war machines.

The Truth Department was flexing their strength by fully demonstrating the number of robots at their disposal.

Fang Ning was curious as to where they set up their robot assembly line.

Where did they send the parts for further machining?

The Land of Heritage was a safe place for such a factory, but Fang Ning never noticed any factories when he was there.

Besides, such a factory would bring a negative effect on the environment where demons resided, so it was not possible for them to move it there.

Fang Ning knew he would never find the answer to his curiosity as it would be considered top-secret information within themselves.

Fang Ning would need to be as low EQ as Sir System for him to ask the question without hesitation.

Captain Hong smiled and pointed at those robots, “Here they are, Venerable One. Those at the front are smaller units at less than seven meters tall. They are considered the high mobility units, equipped with a specialized booster. They can easily reach their fastest speed at Mach five.

“The spiritual requirements to operate these machines are also set at a relatively high standard. The pilots must be at least Bucket-level… Even those can only barely pilot these robots. We would still prefer these to be piloted by Pond-level powerhouses.”

Fang Ning looked at those scrawny robots that were designed for better aerodynamics. He nodded and replied, “Not too shabby, should work well in battles.”

“Thank you, Venerable One. However, I have something in mind that need to talk to you about,” Hong Yunjiao hesitated before saying.

“Go ahead then,” Fang Ning was curious.

“The moon is coming soon, and the Truth Department is trying to move some of its more important factories away. We have done the preliminary work, but we have yet to decide on the new location. We believe that an arcane realm will be the best for us. Even though the Land of Heritage has enough space for those factories, we have planned to use it as a cultivation center and a base for herb plantations, so we don’t think modern factories would suit the vision…”

“Oh, I understand now. The door to Morality City is always open for you…” Fang Ning agreed to her request immediately.

He was feeling troubled that his Yin Energy Realm was lacking human presences. Now that the Truth Department were going to move their factories in, he no longer needed to worry about that problem.

He also had no worries about forcefully taking away the place from its natural inhabitants. Sir System had already destroyed the source of Yin Energy and converted them into Yang Energy.

So long as he ruled the arcane realm, every living thing residing in it would be working for him.

Hong Yunjiao was delighted by his reply and said, “If that is the case, I shall waive the rental fees for these twelve spiritually-controlled mechs for you.”

“That sounds great. You can discuss the details with Cang Gongzi since it is in charge of the area,” Fang Ning pushed the responsibilities away as soon as he received his benefits.

He trusted Cang Gongzi would keep his benefits in mind when trying to strike a deal with them.

“I heard your conversation. You cannot claim this expense anymore,” Sir System said immediately.

“Do you think I’m that wicked? Do you think that I’d take advantage of you like that?” Unlike Sir System, Fang Ning was not thinking about money all the while.

Sir System never lost its greed, while Fang Ning no longer cared about small incomes…

He knew that he had no chance of spending that money even if he earned it…

Fang Ning observed those machines and consulted the opinion of Anderson before placing his order of twelve different models of spiritually-controlled mechs.

He waved his hand and the machines were sent into the System Space without completing any paperwork.

Everyone was jealous as everything he did was extraordinary.

Fang Ning thought of another problem after finding his weapons. He realized that he could not catch anyone randomly. So long as the Lunar Spirituals remained in the shadows, he could not take any actions like the Truth Department could, since he was not a licensed organization.

“So troublesome. I can only leave this to Elder Ren and the others.”

Fang Ning sent the name list to Ren Ruofeng.

Sir System said in confusion, “You could have just captured them secretly and keep them in the draconic penitentiary… Why are you so worried?”

Fang Ning disagreed, “What would be the difference between myself and a devil then? Those people that you catch while serving justice were criminals. These Lunar Spirituals are still law-abiding citizens, so we should not act recklessly.”

Sir System replied, “I don’t understand, so I’ll just leave it to you.”

Ren Ruofeng had no such worries like Fang Ning as he received the name list. He decided to go with a secret arresting operation.

As a licensed organization in keeping the safety of China, they did not need to worry about minute details.pupouupo.

Everything else was pointless when compared to the safety and wellbeing of China.

…

A poet was selling his book in a shopping mall somewhere South of China.c

The book was titled “The Scenery That Has Disappeared and Those Which Will Follow”.

There were only a few youngsters lining up to receive the signed books from the poet.

It looked relatively sadder compared to those book-selling events with long lines.

The economy was devastated by the imminent disaster. People were trying their best to save their money and started being choosy on what they should spend on.

Some of them said, “I will need to go on a diet for the rest of this month after buying this book…”

“Yeah. The economy is horrible right now. It is so hard to find a job with a nice salary nowadays. How long more are we going to live in such a state?” Someone replied.

The poet looked disdained. He signed another book and passed it to the next person in line.

He smiled and said, “Since life is so tough, why don’t you try and find a sense of relief and comfort from the scenery that has disappeared from us?”

“You’re right, poet. All we can do now is numb ourselves by reading,” another person replied.

Li Shang was not sympathizing with these youngsters that gave up on their lives. He chose to treat them with a smile only because they were his source of income.

‘How I hope the for the Lunarians to arrive sooner. I can no longer catch my breath in such a corrupted world…’

“Li Shang, please come with us.”

An authorized warrant appeared in front of him just as he was indulged in his thoughts.

Two armored soldiers stood in front of him. They handcuffed him up without hesitation.

“What’s wrong?”

His fans were discussing yet no one chose to step up and offer their help.

“Did Teacher Shang make a mistake? So unbelievable. I thought these things will only happen on the internet and not so close to us.” The brave ones started snapping photos.

“What are you two doing? I am innocent.”

“You are under arrest for partnering with a devil and this is the proof. You have no rights to remain silent. You are required to answer all the questions given to you. If you try to remain silent, we will consider it as resisting arrest…” One of the soldiers warned him.

Li Shang was pale as a piece of paper. He started talking to himself, “No, I am innocent. I must have been bewildered. Yes, I am bewildered. I will be honest and speak the truth…”

The two soldiers looked at each other. They knew that all they needed to do was show some force and people like him would show their true weakness without trying to maintain their stand.
