Chuanxing City, many screens were playing a piece of news.
In the footage, a man appeared, a high-ranking member of the Stark Group.
"Just a short while ago, Miss Ye Qingdie, the image ambassador of the Stark Group, was attacked in the streets, and this was the attack footage," he said, and the screen switched to a scene occurring on the street in front of the crowd.
Seeing the video, many people became tense, especially when Ye Qingdie jumped down and fell, many hearts clenched.
These thugs actually committed violence in broad daylight, and they even shot dead a Cyborg who had tried to save Ye Qingdie.
"Apart from being an image ambassador for our Stark Group, Miss Ye is also our Stark Group’s representative in the Transcendent Contest, and she’s a good friend of Xu Mo. They came together from Steel Dome City. The reason Miss Ye chose to jump from the building and not let herself be captured, was because she knew they were not after her, but Xu Mo," said the Stark Group spokesperson.
The Stark Group spokesperson continued, "It’s hard to imagine, just shortly after Xu Mo won first place in the Transcendent Contest, someone dared to attack him. Preliminary investigations suggest it might have to do with the Black Shield Group, whose president had joined the Lancelot Star not long ago."
As soon as these words were released, they immediately caused a huge storm in Chuanxing City.
Lancelot Star!
Even a fool could tell that this was an act of retaliation by the Lancelot Star People against Xu Mo; they wanted to avenge Robert. The Chuanxing City Government announced that Xu Mo did not violate the contest rules, so the Lancelot Star People took matters into their own hands.
The Black Shield Group, they actually became the lackeys of Lancelot Star.
Instantly, public sentiment was inflamed.
Calls to shut down the Black Shield Group and capture the murderers soared, starting a wave of outrage in Chuanxing City.
Many people were already gathering to head towards the Black Shield Group, with some organizing protests to pressurize the government to apprehend the masterminds.
This piece of news was also the Stark Group’s counterattack.
They could not represent government agencies to enforce the law, but they could put pressure on the government. This matter could not just be dropped.
Moreover, since Lancelot Star dared to be so audacious, they will not just let things go and will continue to target Xu Mo, hence it was necessary to disclose this information for the public to be aware.
Hospital.
Ye Qingdie had woken up and upon opening her eyes, she saw Xu Mo, Xiao Qi, and the others.
"Sister Butterfly," Xu Mo called out, and Xiao Qi and Yin also stepped forward.
Ye Qingdie felt her legs, which seemed numb, and asked, "Are my legs still there?"
"They are," replied Xu Mo. "The Doctor said there’s no serious damage."
"Lucky," Ye Qingdie said with a smile, and seeing her smile, Xu Mo said, "Sister Butterfly, you can still manage to smile."
"Isn’t it worth being happy about if there’s nothing wrong?" Ye Qingdie said without concern. She thought it was all over during the incident; if she had been captured and used as a hostage, Xu Mo would have been in danger, but thankfully none of that happened.
And moreover, Xu Mo was here.
"What’s there to be happy about? You were almost in need of a new leg," Xiao Qi said sullenly.
"That’s okay, mechanical legs are even more powerful," said Ye Qingdie. "Now your brother Mo has money."
"Bro Mo, why don’t you help me get upgraded, then I can protect Sister Butterfly in the future," Xiao Qi suggested.
"Yeah," Xu Mo nodded. "I have been thinking about that, it’s time for a remodel."
Xiao Qi’s body was already modified, but the equipment was outdated. The Capital’s mechanical technology was more advanced, so Xiao Qi could be upgraded even further.
"Back in Steel Dome City, didn’t the Shen Family Brothers get improved with advanced devices? Could I get modified too?" Yin, who rarely spoke, said, and Xu Mo turned to him, asking, "The Heart-source Power System Device, interfacing with the heart for the modification, is a complete technological transformation. Don’t be impulsive."
"It’s okay," Yin spoke. "I don’t mind."
"No," Ye Qingdie objected firmly. "Xiao Qi can upgrade his equipment, but you can’t."
Her tone was serious; if Yin underwent a complete transformation, he’d be more or less a machine.
Such technology was more like cultivating war machines, and most people would not attempt it.
Yin didn’t respond to Ye Qingdie’s words. Having come all the way from the Underworld, she had always played the role of the big sister, and previously there was Uncle Fang. They were the leaders of the team.
Among them, Ye Qingdie had considerable authority.
Yin’s face already bore defects, and childhood experiences had left him with deep scars. He always wore a mask, was reticent, and didn’t like talking — almost like a shadow. Ye Qingdie didn’t wish for him to undergo physical transformations.
While Xu Mo and the others were chatting in the hospital ward, outside the hospital, a Flying Device appeared in the sky overhead.
Many people looked up, only to see a bright Energy Light shooting out from the Flying Device, then the round Flying Device’s lower hatch opened, revealing figures floating down, all fully armed with cutting-edge mechanical technology.
"Lancelot Star People."
Someone recognized the cross insignia on the Flying Device as that of the Lancelot Star People. Not long before, the news about the Lancelot Star People had caused a sensation, and now, they had appeared here.
What were they here for?

The Lancelot Star People were led by Amanda, who had said that if David couldn’t handle it, he would personally take action.
In this Byron Star, their inferior civilization had not only killed his brother, but the culprit was still at large. And now, there were even people who dared to accuse the Lancelot Star.
