Compared to the previous visits, this time there was an additional Sergey Signal Amplifier.

Perhaps Sergey originally designed and built this device with good intentions, and he almost grasped the key to the problem and made an effort to try.

Unfortunately, the result was tragic; this time, the militarized regime was not only deformed but also stronger, and human thought was controlled to a more extreme degree.

Harrison Clark knew the reason.

Sergey mistakenly believed that he was completely awake and made many efforts, but it was likely that he himself was the most poisoned at some level.

Sergey thought the antenna would release a neutrino wave that could help humanity break free from its shackles, perhaps even after rigorous calculations and demonstrations.

But in reality, he had fallen into a completely wrong misconception, blinded by false knowledge.

Just as Newton had once stood firmly against Leibniz and defeated him in his own time.

Newton was indeed great, but not flawless in science, having once played a false truth and become a mortal enemy of real truth.

In the age belonging to Newton, his absolute space-time view was once the representative of truth but eventually lost completely to the passage of time. Dr. Sergey fell into a Newtonian predicament; the specific frequency neutrino wave he calculated could not counter thought penetration but instead served as a signal amplifier aiding the tyrant.

It is possible that Sergey’s calculations were wrong, or that Sergey was thoroughly deceived from the start.

This time, Harrison Clark indeed destroyed the amplifier, significantly reducing the intensity of thought infiltration.

However, in the previous instance, and even the one before that, the situation was not much different without the signal amplifier.

Solving the amplifier problem was only a symptomatic treatment, not a fundamental solution.

Harrison Clark clearly knew that he had not solved the problem at its root, and the leadership had not genuinely changed.

Their wavering now was merely an illusion created by the rapid change in ideology within a short period.

Over time, as a privileged group, they would still be locked back in their cages. Even if they re-examined the initiative, the final outcome would still be rejection.

So, there was no need to accept the surrender.

Ahead, a total of ten medium and small battlecruisers were getting closer and closer.

Harrison Clark focused intently, preparing for battle.

He already had a complete strategy in mind.

After the firefight, he would use the extreme maneuverability of the Hornet Ship to break into the center of the fleet and fire at the ten battlecruisers simultaneously.

Two of them, also Hornet-class battlecruisers, would be penetrated by the shield and lose power.

The remaining eight would be left to him once he ejected himself.

Relying on the outstanding performance of the Azure Star, he could destroy the engine cabins of all the remaining warships within forty seconds and trigger a chain reaction explosion.

However, a loud horn sounded from the other side.

“General, Colonel Harrison Clark, please surrender. We don’t want to open fire on you.”

Harrison Clark’s heart tightened abruptly.

It was the voice of Oliver Yeoman.

It turned out to be the pursuit team from the Black Bear Training Base!

Immediately after, more voices rang out simultaneously.

Needham Brown, Daniel Thompson, Marthus, Dr. Owen, Scott, and others… Obviously, these people were all on the same medium-sized battlecruiser.

They all hoped that Harrison Clark would put down his weapons and talk things through.

Nora Camp asked, “What should we do now? Should we hold back?”

As the strategizing general had anticipated, Harrison Clark had fallen into a dilemma.

The difference m numbers between the enemy and them was too great; if they held back, their Hornet Ship would likely be shot down.

But if they acted according to the original plan, those familiar people would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.

He felt at ease killing strangers, but he could not bring himself to harm acquaintances.

Fortunately, he had another plan.

“All right, I’ll talk to you.”

Harrison Clark quickly made a decision and ejected himself.

The opposing fleet did not land.

Wearing the Azure Star, Harrison Clark slowly drifted forward and said loudly, “I can’t explain it to you. But I hope you’ll step aside and not block my way.” “Why is that?” Oliver Yeoman was utterly puzzled. “We’ve said that we would let bygones be bygones. Harrison Clark, what do you want? At this time, shouldn’t humanity be united as one?”

Harrison Clark shrugged and used one of the most common lines of the Fugitive faction.

“When the paths diverge, there is no cooperation.”

At that moment, the gun barrels on the ten warships suddenly lit up.

Needham Brown, Daniel Thompson, and others cried out in surprise and anger.

“Oliver Yeoman, what are you doing? Who told you to fire?”

Oliver Yeoman argued loudly, “Not me! I’m not controlling the warships; we’re being remotely controlled!”

Luckily, Harrison Clark had never let his guard down and dodged in time. The gunfire intertwined where he had just stood, forming a violent explosion. Harrison Clark’s voice was raised again, “Needham Brown! Lion! Dr. Owen! I just want to ask you, do you trust me? If you do, come with me!”

Ten seconds later.

There was a commotion inside the medium Battlecruiser serving as the flagship.

There were screams from Oliver Yeoman and deep grunts from Needham Brown as he made his move.

Harrison Clark grinned.

Everything was as he had expected.

Needham Brown was the hidden piece he had inadvertently prepared in the chess game.

Originally part of the Fugitive faction, Needham Brown was personally brought into the military by him.

No matter what others thought, Needham Brown was actually the easiest to sway.

As long as Needham Brown made a move, the rest would have to make a choice within a short period..
