Abyss Solo-Chapter 497 - 223 Fame and Fortune

"""

Was this Bryant’s value?

Yang Ming looked at the crowd on the street, half asleep and half awake, and was taken aback.

This was not just Bryant’s spiritual power, but also the technological force empowered by the Poisoned Stinger Ship, the amplification device developed by the Empire around supermodified people, which played a critical role at this moment.

In fact, it was all the same.

If the White Ghost wanted to exert influence, it must also rely on Lyu’s ability in the online world.

The transformed people seemed to have infinite glory, but in reality, what mattered in the end was technological power.

Yang Ming strolled through the street, offering help to people in need and lending ordinary strength where heavy lifting was required.

The chaos in this city quickly returned to calm under the dual influence of the White Ghost and the Asexual God Envoy.

The police responded quickly, but they were helpless against the massive crowd, only managing to protect a small number of key areas with various equipment.

Godoy sent a video invitation.

"How are you, Hui?"

"Not much is happening," Yang Ming replied, "How about you?"

"Still at the space station, the passages below are sealed off, but they said they’ll reopen in two hours," Godoy cursed, "These damned terrorists! What do they want! So many innocent civilians dead or injured!"

Yang Ming thought of that old man’s eyes.

"If you can, go back first," Yang Ming said, "I’m afraid it’s still not safe here."

"We can’t return," Godoy said coldly, "We can’t bow to terrorist attacks! I am a descendant of the Saka family, and so are my children! In this moment that demands honor, since we chose to vacation here, we must see it through to the end!"

Lady Daly stood by, gazing at Godoy with love in her eyes.

Yang Ming:...

Understood, saving face was at stake.

"Then I’ll have my assistant help entertain you later," Yang Ming said, "It’s best to avoid the crowds; leave the itinerary to me. I’m also a part of the family."

"Oh, that’s certainly fine," Godoy said, "There’s a speech event at the station here, and I’ve been invited to speak and inspire the people. In the meantime, stay safe, don’t fear difficulties!"

"Good luck."

Yang Ming made a cheering gesture as Godoy ended the communication with his head held high.

——Although a viscount was not a high title, hereditary viscounts were still relatively rare.

Yang Ming continued helping with disaster relief. He had reached close to the center of the explosion area, where drones and hovercars flew above, carrying away severely injured people.

Who did this?

The New Federation?

Although Yang Ming also wanted to see the Empire declare all-out war on the New Federation, deep down he still harbored some doubt.

No matter how you looked at it, it seemed someone was deliberately trying to spark a conflict between the New Federation and the Sherman Empire; these human bombs targeting civilians were almost a perfect trigger for war.

From a political standpoint, the incident seemed perplexing and could only wait for Lyu’s investigation report to be released.

...

The Empire’s institutional machinery, once set in motion, was indeed terrifying.

Setting aside the temporary support of the White Ghost, just eight minutes after the bombing occurred, Bryant’s Poisoned Stinger Ship arrived over Yaha Star’s capital, completing the city’s "cooling down," forcing the citizens to remain calm. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

In the next half hour, local police forces were fully mobilized, and all over Yaha Star, everything ground to a halt as ships entered the atmosphere and began to maintain general order in the skies. The network was flooded with slogans like "Order has been restored here."

Within an hour, a large army took control of the traffic, and citizens entered refuges or returned to their homes, while television channels already broadcasted discounted reports of the actual situation.

In just two hours, the death toll list was prepared by officials, who had also completed contacting and comforting the families of the deceased, beginning systematic accountability and commendations.

The entire city returned to tranquility within four hours.

Local citizens and visiting tourists were asked to stay in their accommodations, while teams composed of robots and local grassroots staff went door to door, proactively explaining the occurrence of a terrorist attack, distributing week-long living vouchers to residents, and equivalent value coupons to tourists.

Clearly, the Empire had a mature set of procedures for dealing with terrorist attacks.

It must be that similar incidents happened frequently.

What concerned Yang Ming the most was the attitude between the Empire and the New Federation.

The extent of war between the two superpowers of the Milky Way would determine how much strategic space Yang Ming’s forces could obtain.

An hour after the attack, the Empire announced endless retaliation to the outside world.

The international terrorist organization "Chauvin Liberty" claimed responsibility for the event, releasing a video fiercely condemning the Empire’s endless external expansion, proclaiming that the heroic warriors in the attack came from planets and nations conquered by the Empire.

The New Federation and many countries expressed regret over the terror attack suffered by the Sherman Empire’s people on Yaha Star, and offered voluntary assistance to help the injured recover quickly.

The President of the New Federation called the Prime Minister of the Sherman Empire, expressing condolences to the families of the victims and mourning those who died in the terrorist attack, pledging continued dedication to peacebuilding in the Milky Way, and resolutely opposing terrorist activities and hegemonic expansion...

The Empire then stated that they would investigate the technical source of the cellular bombs and would retaliate a hundredfold or a thousandfold against the sponsors and backers of terrorist organizations.
