The original intention of the noble's early warning sign was just a sign, nothing more than saying "I am doing business here, please don't disturb anyone else".
Generally speaking, this is to scare the outcasts and reduce trouble. When other nobles see it, they may come over to watch the fun.
But later, a new way of playing was derived. The nobles put up warning signs in their fiefdoms to express their refusal to investigate.
If anyone ignores this warning, then I'm sorry, anyone who comes will be beaten and killed - it is an extension of the fiefdom law.
Qu Jianlei had learned the early warning signs of Gustin's family before this and got the authorization.
But he has never used it, because this thing itself is also a double-edged sword.
The more powerful something is, the more obvious its drawbacks will be. If warning signs are really that useful, do the Gustins need to move away from Qingyuan?
In essence, it is just a defensive method to ensure that your home will not be harassed in the short term.
The early warning signs have been put up, so only a fool would continue to do anything to the fiefdom - people can really be ruthless.
It is right to stop first. However, since we have come here, no one can just stop it, right?
Your family is in trouble. I sympathize deeply and am willing to help, but you are so overbearing. You must give an explanation, right?
Therefore, the early warning signs of nobles in their fiefdoms are indeed very useful, but after all, they are a short-term behavior.
Qu Jianlei mastered such a method, but never used it, mainly because he couldn't hold it for too long.
If you want to be arrogant enough, you must have a corresponding reason, and you must show it when faced with doubts from others.
Qu Jianlei couldn't come up with a decent reason at all, and only had the "Fiefdom Law" as a supporting point.
It's okay to delay it for a short period of time, but it will be over if it takes a little longer - the fiefdom law is not his family!
Until now, he only needed to hold on for a short period of time before he could take such action.
Anyway, in the negotiation between the two parties, he can argue back and forth for a while.
With this little time, it should be enough to support the world until the feedback from heaven and earth is over.
Then... everyone just turned around and ran away. Where did all the explanations come from?
Xiaohu had cooperated with him for so long and knew his thinking logic very well, so she couldn't help but remind him.
"There is probably a time difference because of the change of track."
Qu Jianlei knew what he was talking about and said simply, "Then hurry up, show your head and start fighting directly."
The satellites that changed their orbits came from different directions and arrived at an angle that could observe the Gustin family's fiefdom, and the time was also sequential.
The first satellite that emerged had just been able to observe the fiefdom, and the angle was still very narrow, when it received a warning.
"The Gustin family is dealing with internal affairs and refuses all visits and observations. Violators will be responsible for the consequences!"
From this angle, basically nothing can be observed. Not to mention the location, the dust layer that needs to be penetrated is thicker.
You can imagine the frustration of the observer after receiving such a warning without seeing anything clearly.
However, he is a soldier and must strictly implement military orders, so he responded.
"This is a normal operation of the military. I hope you will respect yourself and not be provocative."
The answer from the other party was cold and without giving any face, "Temporarily changing course, do you call this normal action?"
The military observers did not expect that the other party would immediately realize that their own satellite had changed its orbit.
It was somewhat of a surprise, but he emphasized one point, "There is no need to explain the military's actions to you."
The person on the other side said contemptuously, "I don't need your explanation. Look, this is an early warning sign!"
The next moment, the flying satellite was destroyed.
Observers who stared at the satellite data and synchronized their perspectives were suddenly confused.
Seeing that all the data had returned to zero and all the images had lost signal, he was stunned for a moment before he realized, "Is this... destroyed?"
When the military issued the order, it did not explain it to the people below - if there is an order, it should be carried out.
The observer didn't know the whole story of the mission, and since the nobles didn't use warning signs very frequently, he didn't react.
——Actually, this word is often encountered in daily life. It is just a polysemous word.
"So bold?" After being stunned for several seconds, he finally came to his senses, "The kind that prevents any observation?"
In any case, it was only right to report it to the superior immediately. At the same time, he was still replaying what had just happened.
Observation is too difficult... He was analyzing the data carefully, and the response from his superiors arrived.
"Don't worry about the other party's reaction. Let's analyze it carefully. What did the satellite find?"
After analyzing for a while, the observer finally found something, "There seems to be columnar energy fluctuations."
"Pillar-shaped?" The superior was really surprised when he heard this word. This kind of situation is relatively rare, but it is not impossible.
He immediately thought of several possibilities, such as a space elevator or something.
"Then they were in a state...forget it, can they identify the type of energy?"
"It's a bit weird," the observer replied honestly, "the observation angle is not enough... it can be roughly determined to be unconventional energy."
The superior sighed, "Okay, the warning sign... I'm really determined."
The military encountered this sign, but was not discouraged and insisted on controlling the satellite's orbit.
After two more satellites were destroyed one after another, they finally figured out the type of missile and stopped trying.
The next moment, they successfully contacted the Gustin family and asked why they repeatedly destroyed military satellites.
It is said to be a question, but essentially it is asking the other party to explain the reason for setting up the warning sign.
But if you choose the latter method, it will destroy your own prestige.
Xiangxue's answer definitely avoided the important and ignored the important, but just emphasized that we had made a warning sign.
No matter what the other person asked, she would always answer like this.
Later, the military had to change its story and asked about the reason for setting it up, but she said that of course there was a reason and it was not convenient to say.
This led to another period of entanglement, and in the end, facing a strong threat from the military, she expressed that she wanted to ask for permission.
Naturally, there will be no results from asking for instructions. Next, she said that high-level officials are having necessary discussions on the military's requirements.
By this time, the military also realized that the other party was probably stalling for time.
So they issued an ultimatum: Since you cannot provide sufficient reasons, we will ignore the extension of the fiefdom law.
It's not that you ignore the fiefdom law, you just ignore the extension, which means you have to force people to watch.
If the other party still dares to attack, the military can make a strong counterattack - in this way, the entire process will go smoothly.
The privileges represented by the fiefdom law are indeed powerful, but they are not omnipotent. In history, the military has surrounded and suppressed fiefdoms more than once.
As long as the procedures are in place and outsiders can't find fault, the military can indeed do whatever it wants.
Xiangxue is still delaying. She said that the reason must exist, but it is not convenient to show it - we are discussing the feasibility.
The military determined that this guy was stalling for time and decisively ordered the satellite to continue changing its orbit... It would be too late if we didn't make up our mind!
Unfortunately, their decision was too late.
When the two satellites successfully changed their orbits again and entered the observation angle, they were not attacked again.
The observers had already taken the opportunity to directly search for the column of energy above the territory.
But unfortunately, when they tried to lock in the amplification, the energy column dissipated rapidly.
"Made, you're still too late!" the observer couldn't help but cursed, "You're so cunning."
After scolding, there still needs to be some analysis, but in the end it was okay, because assumptions were made in advance and everyone made corresponding preparations in advance.
Through comparison, the military came to a conclusion: there is a 70% chance that the energy column does involve alien energy.
The probability of 70% is not low, but if it is just "involved", it is not easy to take direct coercive measures.
In fact, with Qingyuan in such a miserable state and the other party's strength, it is impossible for the military to be too tough.
Don’t forget, there is also an anomaly in the space fluctuation point, which is the focus of the military’s attention.
However, even so, the proper posture still needs to be shown.
The military informed the other party, "There are abnormal energy fluctuations in the fiefdom, which may be alien energy."
"This has a great potential to jeopardize the empire's overall security strategy, and we need to investigate."
There are so many supreme beings on the other side and they are so powerful that it is impossible not to understand the term "alien energy".
If the situation were changed, the military might not be so straightforward - the level of security is really too high.
But when dealing with this group of people, don't think about that.
The other party's confidentiality level must be sufficient, and the key point is that if you don't speak more seriously, the other party may ignore or even deny it.
However, even so, the other party didn't buy it and simply said, "If you want to investigate, you can just bring the evidence!"
Are they stalling for time again? The military subconsciously came up with this idea.
However, they really couldn't provide any evidence.
Those doubtful evidences have limited persuasiveness. On the contrary, they are suspected of "much ado over nothing" and are more likely to anger the other party.
They didn't know why the other party was still stalling for time. Anyway, the energy column had disappeared.
It's probably the finishing touch of something. It would be great if I could ruin the other party's plan at this moment.
But unfortunately, the military also knows that its own strength really does not allow it.
So they could only warn the other side again and sent several teams to station around the fiefdom.
At this time, Jia Shuiqing had completely completed the infant condensation and released her consciousness, "I'm okay, I need to take a rest."
Qu Jianlei had arranged for everyone to run away, but after hearing her request, he thought about it and agreed.
There was nothing he could do, the old lady's aura was extremely unstable, but fortunately he set up three more defensive formations in time.
The previous defensive formations were all destroyed by thunder, and these three defensive formations could not completely cover up Jia Shuiqing's aura.
Her aura fluctuates very much, and when it is strong, even several supreme beings are a little frightened.
Now that the military is not forcing entry, it is necessary to take a short rest.
——In fact, the longer the rest time at this moment, the shorter the time the old lady will have to recuperate in the future.
However, Qu Jianlei had already begun to arrange the evacuation, "Mu Guang, what should I do with your two A-level assistants?"
