Hansen Academy was actually a large-scale research facility with the highest level of confidentiality. Even President Guiors's children were held hostage here. It was easy to imagine how much useful information was leaked from this place under the guise of a school.
With such a level of confidentiality, everything about the students was definitely confidential. Even Guiors wouldn't be able to find out more information, let alone the outside world. Perhaps some people would be able to find the students' names, but to find out the students' details and identify the students' families among the 100 million people in Guiors was simply a dream.
In the original plot, there was only one instance where a student's family was used to threaten a student, and that was only when the female lead, the father of President Gyorl, was exposed. That was because the target was too big and too obvious. Apart from the president, there was no other instance where a student's family was used to threaten them. Ultimately, it was because the Dorsia military couldn't find any information about the student's family.
Otherwise, if the Military State of Dorcia found out all the students' families, the entire module would be defeated without a fight. There wouldn't be any other story. It would be a joke to say that the students were threatened by both the Military State of Dorcia and ARUS in the original plot. If the Military State of Dorcia was really threatened, it wouldn't keep attacking the students.
Xiao Ran patted El Erf's shoulder, "My subordinate, Moses, will drive a robot over. You should quickly familiarize yourself with this girl, especially you. I might ask you to drive that robot into battle."
"Got it." El Erf nodded. Ryukino looked at Xiao Ran with a slightly surprised expression and asked, "Do I need to fight too? But I don't know how to drive a robot. "
"I'm just letting you familiarize yourself with it. As for driving, it won't be a problem after you get your robot," Xiao Ran said, then turned to look at Qing Ren and said, "Just like Qing Ren. After you enter the robot, you'll probably get some abilities related to this. "
Qing Ren nodded silently, as if she was confirming Xiao Ran's words. Ryukino smiled with interest, "I didn't know that."
Xiao Ran looked at Qing Ren and said, "Follow me. He said, "Come with me. I think it's necessary for you to truly understand the true side of this world. It's a cruel reality where either you die or I die."
After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he turned around and left. Qing Ren looked at Xiao Ran's back and silently followed him. After entering the building, Xiao Ran stopped and looked at Qing Ren. Qing Ren seemed to understand Xiao Ran's intention, so she took the initiative to walk in front of him and led him into the principal's office...
When Xiao Ran and Qing Ren entered the principal's office, Qihai Liyin and Figaro had only been inside for a minute or two. Before they could sit down, they saw Xiao Ran and Qing Ren come in.
"I didn't expect to see our hero here. Welcome. You're Qing Ren, right?" Figaro walked to Qing Ren with a smile and extended his right hand to her, "It's nice to meet you."
Qing Ren was stunned for a moment, but she also extended her right hand and gently shook his hand. She replied with some embarrassment, "That … that. Nice to meet you, Senator Figaro. "
"Oh, you're so nervous. Is this your first time talking to a politician?" Figaro pretended to be surprised and said, "I don't think I'm as scary as those Dorsians you defeated."
Xiao Ran smiled. He felt that Figaro's act was very interesting. Since Figaro didn't intend to greet him, Xiao Ran directly walked into the principal's office and sat down on the chair in front of the office. He was interested in the conversation between Qing Ren and Figaro.
Qing Ren smiled embarrassedly, but the expression on her face suddenly became dull. She looked at Figaro and asked, "Senator Figaro, is what Guiors' officer said true? You came here for that robot, and saving us was just a side trip? "
The smile on Figaro's face slowly disappeared, and it was replaced by a serious expression. He said with a sincere tone, "Indeed, our main purpose here is that robot. Currently, the development of the Military State of Dorcia is becoming more and more unstoppable. Today, they invaded Guiors, and tomorrow, they might invade ARUS. Therefore, we must find a key weapon to resist the Military State of Dorcia."
"But we don't intend to give up on you students. I don't think these two purposes conflict, right? "
Qing Ren looked at Xiao Ran who was sitting on the chair in the innermost part of the office and nodded, "Mhmm."
Xiao Ran smiled and suddenly asked, "Then what if we don't have enough time? There are more than 3000 students in the entire module, and there are also more than 3000 residents left behind. More than 7000 people, are you sure that the warships you brought can take all of them away in about the same amount of time? "
"That's indeed impossible, but we can try our best to take as many people as we can." Figaro turned to look at Xiao Ran, but the smile on his face was gone. He said, "Even if we can't take all of them, we can at least take most of them."
Qing Ren's expression instantly froze, and she lowered her head slightly.
Xiao Ran smiled and didn't respond to Figaro's words. Instead, he asked, "Let's not talk about this. Since you want to talk to me, then just tell me what you want to talk about. I don't think there's a need to waste time in a place where the Military State of Dorcia can attack at any time. There's still a lot of things waiting for me to do."
Figaro walked to the front of the table and said to Xiao Ran, "The entire Dyson Sphere, except for this module, is occupied by the Military State of Dorcia. I want to ask Officer Xiao Ran, how do you ensure that you and the new Guiors won't be threatened by the Military State of Dorcia? How do you ensure the safety of these people?"
Figaro sneered and said, "If it's a battle, there will also be sacrifices, right? Also, with the current situation of this module, the number of Guiors can't resist the Military State of Dorcia, right? Do you want these students to become soldiers and fight with you?"
"Indeed, other than resolute resistance, there's no other way. Does Councilman Figaro have any good ideas?" Xiao Ran shook his head and said honestly, "Although we do have plans to let the students join in, I'm afraid that we won't be able to do it in a short period of time. If we let them go to the battlefield now, they will just be sending themselves to their deaths."
"Since you know that you won't be able to resist the attack of the Military State of Dorcia with your current strength, why are you still so insistent?" Figaro smirked and said, "I think we can make a deal. We don't need your Mecha Body. As long as you're willing to give us the construction data of the Mecha Body, ARUS can provide you with military protection and satisfy some of your requests."
"Really?" Xiao Ran looked at Figaro with a half-smile and said, "Will ARUS really protect and take care of us after I give you the data of the Mecha Body? Won't you just get rid of us after we've outlived our usefulness? "
"How is that possible?" Figaro said righteously, "ARUS is a friendly country with you. How could we do something like that?"
"Then can I ask you to tell me, after we give you the data, will we still have any value or meaning to ARUS?" Xiao Ran rubbed his chin and thought for a bit. Then, he suddenly said, "Oh, right. Also, in the name of helping us citizens of a fallen country, you can use the righteous cause of Dorcia to attack Guiors and occupy more territory."
"Mhmm, right. Then, you will be very willing to provide weapons and equipment to us citizens of a fallen country. Let us fight on another front and sacrifice ourselves. Then, you will buy some time for ARUS to research new weapons and mass-produce them."
Qing Ren raised her head and looked at Xiao Ran and Figaro in shock. Qi Haiyin, who had been sitting quietly in the office, also covered her mouth and looked at the two in disbelief.
Figaro was instantly stunned after hearing Xiao Ran's words. After a while, he said in a calm tone, "This … is impossible. Why would ARUS do something like that?"
Even though he was pretending to be calm, everyone in the room could hear the panic in Figaro's voice.
"Let's not talk about it." Xiao Ran looked at Qing Ren who had completely lost her composure. He smirked and said, "It doesn't matter anyway. I refuse your deal. But I have to remind you, if we are defeated by the Military State of Dorcia, those things will naturally fall into their hands. "
A few drops of cold sweat appeared on Figaro's forehead. He angrily pointed at Xiao Ran and said, "You are risking the lives of those students. You are tricking those students into becoming pawns of your unspeakable conspiracy. You are encouraging those students to die for your own selfish desires. You are the real bad guy."
"Alright then. Just like what I said earlier, since you are so great, I can buy you time to move everyone away and block all the pursuers for you." Xiao Ran curled his lips and said leisurely, "But I have to remind you again, your main goal is impossible because I can't give you those bodies."
"It's just that I don't know if you are willing to bring these burdens back to ARUS without those bodies. How are you going to deal with them? Are you going to throw them aside like refugees? Or are you going to act like heroes and take them back to Guiors' land and save their loved ones?"
Senator Figaro clenched his teeth. Xiao Ran glanced at him indifferently and continued, "What's wrong? You're not going to say anything. Without that mech, I'm afraid you won't be able to complete your mission. You know very well that even if ARUS doesn't treat them like refugees, they won't save their loved ones because they're worthless to you."
