Chapter 9. The Assassination Plan of Mephiras
Chapter 9. The Assassination Plan of Mephiras
Asami's fist, which she threw with a sweet fragrance, stopped in front of the computer screen, making Akihisa shudder. After all, this was his computer, and even without the strange strength from yesterday, a woman's punch could easily shatter an LED screen.
"I'm very sorry, Ms. Asami."
The Mephiras alien apologized, though his expression didn't reveal much sincerity.
"If apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?"
"Even the police probably can't punish the incoming world president..."
As Akihisa muttered something, he was immediately met with a glare from the furious Asami.
"I deeply regret the inconvenience caused to you, and to show my sincerity..."
The alien from Mephiras on the other side of the screen tapped its fingers a few times in the air.
In an instant, the photos of Asami team members on the screen quickly went blank.
When Akihisa opened other web pages, the same thing happened. In just two or three seconds, all the information about Ms. Asami in all Japanese, no, all the online media in the world melted away like snow meeting the sun.
"It...it disappeared! That's amazing!"
Mind control and hacking into electronic information networks were originally the specialties of the Zarab aliens, but Mavis used them with such skill that she even surpassed the previous kidnappers.
"Is Miss Asami satisfied now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Mephiras alien shrank into a dot of light and disappeared from the computer screen.
"...That's more like it."
Hiroko Asami breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're celebrating too soon, Miss Asami."
Looking at the Asami team members who had already opened the champagne, Jin Yi yawned.
He didn't sleep well last night; in fact, he slept terribly. All night long, all he could hear was the clanging and rubbing of chains, mixed with Belial's faint roars and curses. He finally fell into a deep sleep just before dawn.
"What a pathetic little guy who only knows how to fly into a rage," Jin Yi thought to himself as he continued the conversation.
"Although all information about you has been removed from the internet, don't forget about print media!"
The Mephiras aliens' information manipulation capabilities are indeed powerful, even capable of erasing information from hard drives and USB flash drives, even without internet access. However, in this era, newspapers have not been completely phased out.
Therefore, all the newspapers in Tokyo still carried Ms. Asami's beautiful picture on their front pages.
"Going a step further, erasing the newspapers won't help either, because humans have memories."
Jin Yi pointed to his head.
"Even if the Mephiras aliens have the ability to erase human memories, he is currently a positive figure and cannot openly carry out large-scale memory erasure, otherwise his entire plan would be ruined..."
"So, Asami, please accept my condolences. This fire is not yet extinguished. You are destined to be a figure in human history..."
"Aaaaaah!"
Hiroko Asami disregarded her image and roared to the sky. Her heart, which had just calmed down, was now in turmoil again. She had almost been fooled by the perfunctory actions of the Mefilas aliens!
"That despicable Alien Mephiras! Isn't there any way to punish him?"
"No, we have no other options."
Captain Tamura said, head bowed.
"Whether it's you or anything else, we have no way to deal with the Mephiras aliens."
In fact, the conversation between the Mephiras alien and the Japanese leader was quickly made public, and the Fate team also received the relevant information.
The world is about to change, and the only one to achieve the great feat of ruling the Earth is actually an alien.
When this information was first released, the world was almost shocked. Political systems in other countries were speculating that the Japanese prime minister was high on drugs, but repeated calls only yielded one result.
"We respect the decision of the Mephiras aliens."
They then released the contents of yesterday's negotiations. What the Mephiras aliens said was indeed very persuasive. The challenges that Earthlings are facing now are no longer disputes between nations.
To counter enemies from outer space, a powerful force that can be controlled is essential.
Although the Mephiras aliens have sided with the Japanese, other countries may still get a share of the spoils.
Therefore, they chose to remain inactive and observe how things develop.
"To be an enemy of the Mephiras aliens is to be an enemy of the world."
"The goal of the Mephiras aliens is to turn Earthlings into their private army."
The Fote team consisted of highly intelligent elites, and they quickly came to this conclusion, although they could vaguely guess that the cooperation proposed by the Mephiras aliens must be harboring malicious intentions.
But what can we do?
Mephiras used a perfectly legitimate and aboveboard strategy, without resorting to the underhanded tactics of the Zarab aliens, leaving him with no leverage whatsoever.
Moreover, the conditions he offered were exactly what Earthlings needed at the moment. With the continuous emergence of monsters and invaders from outer space, ordinary Earthlings only needed a sense of "peace of mind".
The government reached the agreement, the people were protected, there was just one more superior, and no one was sacrificed. What a wonderful world.
It's a mutually agreeable, fair, and open cooperation, and even the government has agreed. So what can the FOT team, which is under the government, possibly do?
The only one who can change this situation is Ultraman.
Everyone turned their attention to Shinji Kaminaga, who remained silent.
But faced with everyone's expectant gazes, he simply shook his head with a hint of disappointment.
"No, that won't work."
"As beings of the planet of light, and as law enforcers, we cannot interfere with the self-will of intelligent life on other planets."
Law enforcers should set an example for others. The lofty status of Star of Light in the universe is due to its extremely high level of technology and the respect that the people of Star of Light have for the rules.
Ultraman Lipia's union with a human has already violated the laws of the Star of Light. If the cooperation between the Mephiras aliens and humans is interfered with again, it would be an aggravation of the crime.
"Ah, then there's really no way to deal with it!"
The Asami team members let out a mournful cry.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
Just then, a discordant voice came from the office.
"Is it too early to be disappointed?"
Jin Yi said.
The Mephiras aliens' plan was flawless, hitting Lipia's weak point perfectly, but they overlooked one thing, which was enough to be fatal.
Rescuing Lipia and eliminating Zarab, the suit Jin Yi wore, the silver-white giant, was undoubtedly a citizen of the Star of Light in the eyes of the Mephiras aliens, and must abide by the laws of the Star of Light.
"Have you forgotten that the laws of the Star of Light don't apply to the Kingdom of Light?!"
P.S. It's so quiet here. Doesn't anyone want to leave a comment?
