When disaster struck, I became a big shot surviving in the ocean. Chapter 326 - 226: Smooth as slicing a melon

Seeing the chanical Tree ready to leave with Chen Qing, Chen Qing had no intention of leaving it behind.

Shi Fangtu hadn’t spoken yet, but one of the vice presidents suddenly panicked and imdiately stopped Chen Qing.

Everyone here is a chanic, with considerable rank, and naturally understands the significance of that chanical Tree.

If Chen Qing takes it away like this, what are they supposed to do?

"..."

Shi Fangtu did not refute, clearly agreeing with the vice president’s opinion.

Regardless of who left the chanical Tree, eventually, it belongs to the chanical Association.

When it belongs to the chanical Association, they have the opportunity to get a share.

To this, Xia Li had no objections either; only by having the chanical Tree in the hands of the chanical Association could it be of greater use.

Her relationship with Chen Qing was good, but only limited to being good.

To be frank, the relationship between Chen Qing and Xia Li might not even be as good as that between Chen Qing and Shang Jia and others.

At least their conflicts of interest weren’t as intense.

Since the beginning of the Deep Blue War, the conflicts of interest between Chen Qing and other chanics have intensified.

The resources were already scarce, but with the onset of the Deep Blue War, they beca even more limited.

Limited resources, unlimited population.

Chen Qing stopped, turned around, and looked at the chanic who blocked her.

"Do you want a fight?"

Although Chen Qing was weaponless, it didn’t an her combat power would be reduced.

Evidently, these people weren’t planning on letting Chen Qing leave with the chanical Tree without a fight.

The Law Enforcer’s fluid tal transford into a silver knife, handed it to Chen Qing, while the long sword in their hand pointed at the opposing chanics.

The chanics of the chanical Association couldn’t help but admire the beauty of the Law Enforcer.

Too beautiful.

If only that chanical Creation belonged to them...

These people were accustod to intimidating others, backed by the chanical Association and their families, there was practically nothing they couldn’t accomplish.

They effortlessly surrounded Chen Qing, while Shi Fangtu Li Duo and Xia Li seed sowhat detached from the situation.

Shi Fangtu frowned at Chen Qing but finally spoke to diffuse the situation, though his words were sowhat harsh.

"Leave the chanical Tree, and you can go."

"You know the importance of this chanical Tree, we will give you other compensation."

Shi Fangtu wanted to keep the chanical Tree not out of greed but because it was crucial for their research into new viruses.

Overall, Shi Fangtu still didn’t want to conflict with Chen Qing.

Chen Qing withstood their pressure, refusing to back down, indicating she had confidence.

Just the Battle chanic standing beside her was enough to give them trouble.

These chanics indeed weren’t very good at fighting.

They miscalculated, not expecting Chen Qing to have such a powerful Battle chanic.

To avoid leaking information, the chanical Association sent only Shi Fangtu and a few others, no more than necessary.

In chanics and power struggles, they were top-notch, but in battle...

Since that disaster over twenty years ago, the developnt of the chanical Association regressed by a hundred years.

This hundred years not only hit their knowledge and technology but other aspects too.

For example, certain Battle chanics, blueprints, and factories left by the old president...

The current chanical Association finds it hard to recuperate.

The chanics of old could not only create but also fight, excelling in making chanics and possessing trendous combat prowess.

Just like the current Chen Qing.

Now, they fall short.

To be honest, during the previous expedition to Shang Jia’s chanical Island, if it were the old chanical Association, those pirates would never have been so presumptuous!

"No need."

"Last ti, move aside."

Chen Qing felt she’d been lenient enough, taking only the chanical Tree without the island’s other chanical creations and resources.

The island is filled with Civilization Consciousness Fragnts, true, but since Chen Qing realized the actual issues with these chanical Creations, dealing with them becos relatively straightforward.

chanical Creations have Consciousness Fragnts, but chanical parts may not.

Chen Qing thought for a mont, put away the knife in her hand.

After all, it shouldn’t be too easy on them.

Why should she be against resources?

The chanics mistakenly believed that Chen Qing was intimidated by them; before their smiles could appear, they heard Chen Qing directing the chanical Tree.

"Take all of these, those, and everything nearby."

Chen Qing ordered the chanical Tree casually.

The Law Enforcer had ways to deal with the invasion of the Civilization Consciousness Fragnts, but the Sailor Rabbits and Titanium Crystal Flying Ants certainly couldn’t resist.

Chen Qing could only direct the chanical Tree, fortunately, it listened.

"What are you doing??"

A few chanics stared wide-eyed at Chen Qing, questioning in disbelief.

"Can’t you see?"

Chen Qing glanced at them indifferently.

"???"

Why has she beco so aggressive all of a sudden!

The chanics felt outraged.

"You!"

"Move aside."

Chen Qing lowered her gaze on the chanic obstructing her, calmly spoke two words.

There are plenty of chanical resources on the island; taking them all back would be useful for quite so ti.

Originally intending to leave directly, not wanting trouble.

But seeing these chanics, Chen Qing realized, even if she didn’t seek trouble, trouble would find her.

"Chen Qing!!"

That chanic was furious, how dare this lowly person treat her like this!!

Chen Qing narrowed her eyes, flipped the knife in her hand, the blade gleaming with a silver-white glow.

Before anyone could react, the knife swung out.

The sharp blade sliced through the chanic’s neck like cutting through soft fruit, her face still frozen in shock.

A swift kill!

The sudden change stunned all the chanics; Chen Qing... how could she?

Did she just attack soone from the chanical Association like that?

Is she completely ignoring the consequences her actions might bring?

Does she realize what impact her actions could have on the current situation!

Chen Qing invited the chanical Association’s people here, indicating she still cared about the bigger picture.

The few chanics had assud they had control over Chen Qing, but didn’t expect her to act so unpredictably!

She just outright killed a vice president of the chanical Association.

While shocked, they realized that such was Chen Qing’s true nature, that’s how she was.

What does the bigger picture or strategies have to do with Chen Qing?

She does as she pleases, whatever makes her happy.

Chen Qing’s good temper sotis isn’t from a larger perspective but because she felt it didn’t matter, and she didn’t bother.

Yet, sotis being reasonable only makes people push boundaries.

She was never known for having a good temper.

Chen Qing’s action directly terrified the remaining ones, they didn’t believe their heads would be harder than the corpse lying on the ground.

Shi Fangtu’s lips curled with a faint smile.

"Does anyone else have objections?"

Chen Qing’s gaze swept across the crowd, finally landing on Shi Fangtu and Xia Li.

With a vice president dead, that position’s vacancy would definitely need filling.

Borrowing a knife to eliminate a rival, Shi Fangtu played well.

"..."

The vice presidents remained silent, with soone dead, what other objections could they have.

Who dares to stop Chen Qing?
