Chapter 448 Bait Sterling
A hot, stifling autumn afternoon.
Sterling sat in the base's courtyard, drenched in sweat.
He kept wiping his forehead, staring at the distant sky.
In the distance, more and more black dots appeared. The GUK-16 drones were finally returning!
But.
The drones landed on the ground and didn't stop; instead, they began to move in small patterns!
Sterling was startled again!
Are they here to finish me off?
He scrambled to escape, glancing back in panic, his body suddenly freezing!
The first few dozen GUK-16 drones had arranged themselves on the ground to spell out a word.
[T.H.A.N.K.S.]
Beautiful.
Sterling's heart shattered instantly!
Paul Four, you really know how to be polite!
"President Prescott!"
"I've regained control, but the GUK-16s killed over 3,000 people and destroyed 14 buildings!"
A scientist reported frantically!
Sterling was on the verge of tears.
I'm definitely going to take the fall for this!
In the Apocalypse Association's conference room.
"What?"
"Three hours, and all 500 church branches were wiped out. Are you sure you're not joking?"
The 'Magician' couldn't believe it, pointing at the black-suited cyborg in front of him.
"We've checked. The other side deployed thousands of small drones."
"They found their targets and took them out with a single shot!"
"It was the most efficient, swift, and precise hunt ever!"
The black-suited cyborg's face was filled with terror as he glanced at the window.
Thousands of drones?
The room fell silent.
Who is this opponent, capable of such tactics?
"And these small drones aren't available on the market!"
"This technology is likely from Victoria."
The black-suited cyborg added, trembling.
"Victoria?"
The 'Magician' squinted, "We have followers among their high-ranking officials, and now they dare to go against us? Are they rebelling?"
The Apocalypse Association's president slammed the table and stood up from the shadows, "I underestimated our enemy. He's not alone; he must be backed by a powerful force, using Victoria's resources!"
"But no matter who he is, he can't possibly stand against our association!"
"I'll go personally and interrogate Sterling!"
"When I find the mastermind, I'll make them pay a thousandfold!"
The 'Magician's' eyes gleamed with a fierce light, "President, I'll go with you!"
"Whoever dares..."
The president stopped mid-sentence, his body suddenly stiffening.
His roar was cut off, and he sat back down, his right eye flickering slightly.
A moment later.
An electronic voice spoke, "I retract my previous orders."
The president's demeanor changed abruptly, as if he were a different person!
The 'Magician' was stunned, "President, you..."
"The church's destruction is insignificant."
"Everyone, stand down."
"Don't think about revenge, don't investigate further. Return to your branches and lay low. Stay out of sight for a while!"
"Our branches will never be exposed; they are the safest places."
The president spoke calmly, his head lowered.
"President!"
"Are you serious?"
"They've already pushed us around!"
The 'Magician' questioned, confused.
The president raised his head slightly, "Are you defying orders?"
The 'Magician' shuddered, "I wouldn't dare!"
The large stratospheric plane began to descend slowly.
Everyone had their own thoughts.
The president's behavior seemed like a split personality; his words contradictory!
But no one found it surprising, as this had happened several times before!
Each time, it had led to rapid development for the association.
But undeniably, the president had suddenly backed down!
The 'Magician' was filled with frustration but had nowhere to vent it.
Sith remained silent.
Over 500 branches were wiped out by drones.
This method was similar to being bombed by missiles!
He felt confused and even a bit scared.
Could this be the intelligent god the president mentioned?
The president, with his vast abilities, was afraid of him?
Six hours had passed.
President Prescott was rushing between countries.
Constantly explaining his weapon's malfunction.
Helplessly, he had to blame it on a hacker attack.
But he didn't dare mention Paul Four's name, instead creating a story about a hacker group called 'Hand of God.'
Every time he mentioned this name, Sterling would instinctively wipe the sweat from his forehead and glance around the room for cameras.
His face seemed to say: I had no choice!
Sterling didn't know that a silver UFO had been hovering seven miles above him the entire time!
On the Celestial Pioneer.
Elbert shook his head.
What Sterling said didn't matter.
What mattered was that six hours had passed, and Sterling was still safe.
It seemed the Apocalypse Association wasn't planning to investigate!
Sterling as bait was ineffective!
No wonder he had hidden in the shadows for so long; 'cautious' was an understatement!
Robert said, "Elbert, you asked me to check the transport vehicles for the beasts. I found something strange!"
Elbert listened intently.
"There are countless large trucks and transport planes around the Galaxy District!"
"But I found a 'Fat Dove' large transport plane's navigation destination to be near the Seraphim desert!"
"First, there's no airport for the plane to land there!"
"Second, in five hours, it'll be the annual monsoon season there, with 8-level winds and sandstorms. Even if there were a runway, the plane couldn't land!"
Elbert's eyes narrowed.
Something unusual was going on!
