Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

Ma Miaodan looked at the picture, amazed: "It seems like everything is collapsing toward the center, this is so strange!"

Zhou Furu nodded: "Within the subsidence area, the cracks on the ground look like a spider web, and outside this area, the cracks suddenly reduced by more than half."

He paused, making a conclusion: "This is definitely some kind of supernatural power."

Ma Miaodan expressed her view: "That sharp screech earlier might just be some kind of powerful new weapon."

Zhou Furu agreed: "It's possible!"

He flipped through his phone on social media and suddenly understood: "I see now."

Ma Miaodan asked: "What happened?"

Zhou Furu said: "Someone has already exposed it, this company, on the surface is a company of the neighboring Antai Kingdom, but the actual controller is a Carmenians."

Ma Miaodan also came to the realization: "So is this Great Xia striking against the Carmenians?"

Zhou Furu responded with a "hmm."

Ma Miaodan was a bit puzzled: "This company is in Glory City, why not just arrest the person?"

Zhou Furu thought of an explanation: "Maybe it's to make a statement."

At the same time.

Similar events were happening one after another in various places on Canglan Star.

Lan shi Kingdom.

Due to the time difference, darkness covered this country.

"Woo~ Woo~"

A shrill screech suddenly tore through the sky.

A few invisible shadows, like thunder, struck a medical research institute.

A horrifying scene unfolded.

"Boom!"

The ground started trembling violently.

It was as if gigantic invisible hands were pressing down the dozen buildings of the institute into the ground.

In an instant.

The institute was razed to the ground, and the ground sank a large section.

Soon.

Several drones belonging to the Huangjia Police Station quickly flew over to investigate the situation.

A bald senior official, through the drone's camera, saw the disastrous state of the institute and cursed: "Mother F*****!"

He paused, and with a serious face, said: "Judging from the impact, this should be a black technology weapon that controls gravity."

The tall official next to him was startled: "Control gravity? Isn't that something from sci-fi movies?"

The bald official, in a "seen it all" tone: "In the Superpower Era, all sorts of strange things exist. Just because the kingdom can't develop a gravity weapon doesn't mean other countries lack the capability."

The tall official suddenly remembered something, gasping: "This is big trouble! I recall a descendant of the Clove Family was in that institute."

The bald official was not worried: "Times have changed, Carmenia is no longer the overlord of Canglan Star, and the Clove Family is no longer that formidable. They were set up as examples by the Great xia People; their days must be tough."

He was a typical stubborn Old Bai. Even he began to think that Carmenia was no longer the overlord, showing how much Carmenia's influence had waned.

The tall official immediately understood the implication: "So this was Great xia People using some secret weapon to destroy the institute and incidentally dispose of a member of the Clove Family?"

He paused and said angrily: "This is an act of invading our country!"

The bald official shrugged: "Since you know it's a secret weapon, Great Xia definitely wouldn't leave any evidence, so protesting is useless."

The tall official was speechless.

The bald official said: "Great Xia is no longer what it used to be; Great xia People have the power to do as they please. I'm certain the higher-ups will pretend as if nothing happened."

He continued: "Besides, this is between Great xia People and Carmenians. Lan shi Kingdom has nothing to gain by getting involved."

The tall official was persuaded: "Alright, you make a good point."

The man looked at the drone video, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind: "Could this be a weapon launched from Great Xia's Lingxiao Hall?"

The bald official nodded: "Most likely! Great xia People claim the Lingxiao Hall system can execute global strikes, likely this is a deliberate public demonstration by Great xia People."

The tall official felt a bit envious, also a bit wistful: "Great Xia is too powerful."

The two exchanged glances, and for a moment, both were silent.

After a few seconds.

The bald official spoke, breaking the silence: "I plan to send Erin to study in Great Xia after some time."

This "Erin" mentioned was the official's daughter.

The tall official was taken aback, wanting to criticize his colleague's decision.

But he swallowed back his words and said something else: "A wise decision."

In the vast space.

At an altitude of 2500 kilometers.

A colossal object, unseen by the naked eye, trembled suddenly.

Three invisible metal rods immediately detached from it, plummeting straight towards the white planet below.

The former was—Lingxiao Tower.

The latter was—Golden Cudgel.

To be more precise—a Type-1 Gravity Strike Weapon, Golden Cudgel.

Normally, as metal rods drop from a 2500-kilometer orbit, they initially reside in a space environment where atmospheric drag is negligible.

But they definitely don't fall in a straight line, instead moving in elliptical orbits.

As the altitude decreases and the atmosphere becomes denser, the air resistance gradually increases, and the trajectory becomes more complex.

Considering initial velocity, orbital parameters, and other data, the actual fall time could be as short as a few hours or as long as several days.

This is why, back then, when the Carmenians developed space-based weapons, they set the orbit to a low one.
