Chapter 437: Concrete Evidence
The young boy's psychic world was filled with mist, just like the steam that permeated throughout every corner of the factory outside his pod.
He had never seen the world, nor was he able to hear any sounds. Only through the occasional rays of light that shone into his pod and some physical sensations was he able to develop some indistinct memories, forming the basis for his illusory psychic world.
He didn't even have a clear concept of self, only some chaotic, formless memories from his DNA inheritance. n))o)(V-.e.-l-)b(.1-.n
Adam was only able to look at the boy's psychic world for a short while before he had to hurriedly withdraw as he could feel himself growing emotional again.
The fluttering of the boy's eyelids increased in frequency, and his eyeballs also began rolling around as he unconsciously stretched his arms and legs as if he were going to wake up. A warning immediately appeared on the display screen in front of his man-made womb, and a mechanical bee quickly flew over to alter the internal conditions of the pod, such as administering sedatives to forcibly calm the boy down.
Adam's brows were tightly furrowed as he watched this unfold.
These children had had their growth modulated by chemical substances from birth, and their brains didn't have a chance to properly develop, so it was no wonder that the pass rate was so low.
However, the people behind the human farm were never short on resources, and they weren't afraid of waste.
The lower the pass rate, the rarer the product, and the higher the price that could be charged, so from a business perspective, this was a very good way to manipulate supply.
Adam's jaws were growing sore from gritting his teeth, and he felt as if his chest were about to explode.
In contrast, Guang Fei displayed no emotions at all as he explored the factory while dragging his feet behind him in a disinterested manner.
"It's all the same. Even if you destroy this place, there will still be other places like this. The world is so massive that there's no way for you to resolve this problem in one go."
Adam was aware of this, but it was difficult to convince himself to be rational on this matter.
"Let's keep carrying out the plan."
He didn't allow himself to dwell on these thoughts any longer as he made his way into the factory's control room, where he stuck his prosthetic AI probe into the terminal to forcibly make a copy of all of the data stored inside.
It was all encrypted, so it came in the form of a bunch of jumbled code, but that wasn't a problem. All he had to do was secure this information, and someone else would decrypt it for him.
There wasn't a lot of data, so it only took a few minutes to make a copy.
Guang Fei took a glance at the time to find that they had already been in the factory for more than five minutes.
"We have to leave. Otherwise, we'll be in trouble if backup forces arrive and trap us down here."
No matter how complacent and lazy the enemy was, they would eventually realize that something had happened to the ambush unit. Perhaps they already knew that something was wrong, but it was taking them time to send people over from the city.
"Let's get out of here."
Adam wasn't one to waste time, and he immediately rode the elevator back up to the hospital, which was still deserted.
The two of them returned to the helipad on the rooftop, where they reinstalled their paragliding wings, following which Guang Fei turned on the helicopter.
Before long, they were airborne and were flying directly toward the coastline at a low altitude.
Almost at the exact same moment, the sound of sirens rang out in the distance, and rows of lights began to approach from the city, while a pair of armed drones flew toward the hospital rooftop.
"These idiots are always late! When are they going to ever get anything done?" Guang Fei cackled as he pushed the helicopter to its top speed while weaving it through over the forest just above the branches in a perilous dance.
Just the slightest lapse in concentration would result in a crash, but he didn't seem to have held any regard for his own life at all.
Adam was forced to grab onto the armrest of his chair as tightly as he could to avoid being hurled out of the helicopter.
Prior to this trip, Guang Fei's bomb collar had been altered so that it would automatically detonate if Adam's vital signs were to disappear, or he became too far separated from Adam. Hence, if Adam were to tumble out of the helicopter, then they would both be dead.
Somehow, through his deranged piloting, the helicopter was able to pass through the air defense crossfire unharmed. By the time the armed drones behind them discovered them and set off in pursuit, they were already close to the coastline.
Guang Fei abruptly tilted the helicopter upward, and it rose up several hundred meters amid the sound of a sharp and piercing alarm tone. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the two of them kicked open the door before jumping out, releasing their paragliding wings as they fell through the air to allow them to fly toward the surface of the sea.
A few seconds later, the missiles fired by the armed drones struck the helicopter, causing it to explode into a fireball. A small forest fire was started as a result, and that disrupted the drones' thermal imaging system.
The two of them glided over the sea for about two kilometers before they were unable to maintain their altitude any longer. They ditched their paragliding wings there, following which the inflatable buoys in their prosthetics were filled up with air, allowing them to float on the surface of the sea.
A short while later, a submarine rose up from not far away, and Adam activated his rocket booster to approach the submarine with Guang Fei in tow. The cabin door of the submarine was opened, and a familiar face appeared before Adam. It was Warlock.
"Long time no see. Looks like everything went well."
Warlock was still a man of few words, and he pulled Adam and Guang Fei into the submarine before it quickly descended into the depths and made its way further out to sea.
Adam didn't expect to have been picked up by Warlock in person, and it was a clear indication that Commander was taking this collaboration very seriously. However, it made sense that Commander was willing to invest more into their partnership in the wake of everything that Adam had done, and given Commander's political power and influence, there was definitely still more that he could offer.
Everyone remained quiet in the submarine until they were out of Komi's territorial sea, and upon surfacing in international waters, the three of them were picked up by a seaplane that took them straight back to Sandrise City.
They enjoyed a very smooth journey on the way back, and Adam and Guang Fei took the time to get some rest. By the time they landed, Cowboy was already waiting at the airport alongside Thunderbird, Flame, and Patriot, all of whom were armed to the teeth and had been assigned with the task of escorting Adam's trio.

Given such a formidable lineup, it was extremely unlikely for them to be attacked as the success rate would've been abysmal.
Cowboy was very excited to see the footage and copied data that Adam had secured from the human farm. This was a second resounding victory in the short span of just a few days, and it clearly showed him that they had found the right collaborative partner.
"Those bastards would've never expected you to catch them off guard like that."
If things could continue like this, then the future was looking extremely bright.
"Don't celebrate too early. They were prepared for me, it's just that they weren't sufficiently prepared."
Adam was extremely calm. In particular, after experiencing the violent emotional fluctuations from seeing the human farm in person, his mental fortitude had been strengthened even further, and his thought processes had also become sharper.
Humans should've never been treated like that.
Cowboy knew that Adam was right, but the fact of the matter was that they had secured two consecutive victories, and that was certainly cause for celebration in his eyes.
Upon returning to their base, Thunderbird, Flame, and Patriot immediately sprang into action, setting up countermeasures against potential attacks.
May had arrived in person to share the spoils as a representative of the pawn shop.
In order to assist Adam in his operation, she had personally accompanied Shae to Golden Teeth Incorporated to fight for her inheritance rights, stirring up quite a ruckus in the process. In fact, the confrontation had gotten violent, but it didn't lead to anything, and their target, Masao Yamamoto, never showed himself, either.
"He's very patient. He's not going to get swept up in our tempo unless he's certain that he can turn the tables on us."
May had been really eager to put on a better performance so that the pawn shop would be able to reap greater benefits.
"It's fine, we'll let them sit on their laurels for now. Once we've set things into motions, everything will eventually snowball to the point that he'll have no choice but to face us directly."
Adam's voice was filled with confidence and battle intent. The information that he had received from Doctor Edwards had already been partially organized, and he was ready to play his third card.
