CHAPTER 565: CHAPTER 463: PREPARE FOR THE EXPERIMENT AGAIN

"What? The Revolutionary Army actually chose to surrender voluntarily?" Chen Xin was baffled upon hearing this news.

This left him feeling very puzzled and also surprised.

In Chen Xin’s view, those so-called revolutionaries were just some young people who weren’t quite clear-headed. There’s no way they could realize their mistakes so quickly, nor could they wake up to reality so quickly when faced with difficulties.

Stubborn resistance, choosing to fight to the bitter end despite mounting difficulties, was the path he expected them to take.

But to surrender voluntarily and directly, what kind of strategy was this?

"Initially, I also found it unbelievable," said the staff member reporting to Chen Xin, wearing an expression of disbelief. "Information from Lucia’s side said that the Revolutionary Army leadership has realized that continuing to fight against the government will only lead to worsening hardships for the public and is detrimental to national reconstruction. Thus, they opted to surrender voluntarily."

"Realizing the unfavorable situation as everything came to an end, and voluntarily choosing to abandon, huh? It’s not impossible..." Chen Xin nodded in understanding of the Revolutionary Army leadership’s decision.

He had met some of the personalities within the Revolutionary Army leadership before, and although they were mostly young people with unclear minds, there was indeed no shortage of idealists hoping the country would improve.

But were those willing to surrender, particularly those among the grassroots of the Revolutionary Army who were extremely dissatisfied with the Lucia government, and those ambitious individuals mingling in the Revolutionary Army, willing to surrender too?

Chen Xin wasn’t sure, so he voiced his doubts to the staff member.

"The Revolutionary Army leadership anticipated this issue, so they summoned the core members of the opposition that they had already under control, using loyal armed forces to control these opposition members. Then, they allowed Lucia’s official army to advance into Revolutionary Army territory to suppress those who wanted to oppose the surrender," said the staff member, with a complex expression on their face when discussing this matter. "Although this caused certain chaos and conflicts, they quickly controlled the situation. At present, while there’s sporadic resistance, the situation is largely under Lucia’s official control."

"This is quite unexpected; those revolutionary people indeed have some tactics!" Chen Xin was a bit surprised, yet not overly so. After all, if the KGB had already infiltrated the Revolutionary Army, and if even under such circumstances the authorities couldn’t resolve the issue...

Chen Xin thought he might have to deploy Titan to subdue the unrest.

But now it seemed it wasn’t necessary.

Perhaps the only thing in this entire scenario that really surprised Chen Xin was the choice made by the Revolutionary Army leadership.

After all, not everyone is willing to relinquish their power just to let others lead a better life.

From this perspective, the Revolutionary Army leadership finally resembled true revolutionaries a bit more.

Having discussed this issue, Chen Xin redirected the conversation to the Weather Controller.

After all, no matter what happens with the Lucia people, it’s their own affair, while the Weather Controller remains the only issue that Chen Xin and his counterparts from Flame Country need to address while stranded here.

"The upgrade and modification of the Weather Controller are complete, and preparations for the third experiment are also finalized. Sir, when would be appropriate to start the third trial?" The staff member asked Chen Xin.

Since this upgrade and modification were mostly carried out by the staff, pouring in their efforts, everyone had higher expectations for the Weather Controller and naturally looked forward to the third experiment.

Chen Xin understood this sentiment and decided without hesitation, thinking for a moment, "Since everything is ready, let’s proceed with the trial as soon as possible, picking a time that seems favorable."

"Should we choose an auspicious day?" The staff member joked upon hearing Chen Xin’s response.

"Haha, picking an auspicious day wouldn’t hurt! Being a little superstitious can bring good luck!" Chen Xin laughed it off.

Although checking the old almanac certainly had superstitious elements, it could provide psychological relief and unknown protection, something Chen Xin wouldn’t object to.

Ultimately, who can guarantee these practices are entirely unfounded? If there are truly some forces that humanity currently cannot comprehend influencing all this, resisting them would only bring trouble.

Since no one knows whether the so-called superstition is the mark left by a higher-dimensional civilization, seeing the high-tech beyond Blue Planet’s detection possessed by a higher-dimensional civilization’s entertainment system, Chen Xin thought believing in it might bring peace of mind.

"Alright, I’ll find someone to calculate whether there’s a good day upcoming." Hearing Chen Xin’s comments, the staff member chuckled and seriously prepared to find someone to calculate the suitable day.

Despite the playful tone, the staff member went on seriously coordinating with Chen Xin about various experiment details.

Chen Xin wasn’t careless either; although he wasn’t trained in this field, after taking on this work, he had become quite professional through experience over time. Given he managed the entire Weather Controller project personally, he was intimately familiar with every step of the trial, not missing any possible issues.

After they spent considerable time double-checking the entire experiment process, Chen Xin remembered another matter and told the staff member, "During the last trial, we caught two Lucia individuals. Although the experiment doesn’t mind onlookers, some security concerns should still be noted. Could we arrange for some patrols and vigilance this time?"

"Understood, I’ll contact the security team to ensure they are well-prepared." The staff member straightened up, acknowledging the matter seriously.

"No need to be overly tense; organizing patrols and vigilance is just standard procedure. Honestly, I don’t think there are too many who would care about watching weather control experiments at minus one hundred degrees just for curiosity." Chen Xin displayed a relaxed attitude.

Honestly, from outside the base, observers would only see the Mobile Base firing, and some superficial weather changes in the trial area. They wouldn’t gain any insights into the core of the Weather Controller.

The patrols and vigilance are merely safety precautions, striving to prevent any mishaps.

Though Chen Xin was relatively indifferent, the staff member was quite earnest, not thinking that security tasks could be shirking; instead, believing that having had issues before, this time couldn’t afford any mishaps.
