Chapter 1157: World Reaction

A video went viral online.

A very crude, skeletal mech stood on the plateau, its pilot wearing a helmet seated on the mech's chest.

In the mech's hand it held a device resembling a rock‑breaking attachment on an excavator; thump thump, the hard rock shattered like tofu.

The mech behind extended its arm, its three‑fingered hand grabbing the broken rocks and tossing them into a nearby dump truck.

The combination is terrifyingly powerful.

The explosives handle the blasting, the rock‑breaking mech handles the big stones, and the rear mech handles the cleanup.

A mountainside visibly shrinks and disappears to the naked eye.

Everyone thought the White Stone Beach development plan and the Extraterrestrial Base project would be slow‑building endeavors.

Now it seems they were wrong; they are not slow at all, but rather very fast.

The Cyber exoskeleton armor's performance forced White Elephant to retreat five kilometers.

They began to feel uneasy.

White Stone Beach sits high above, allowing a dimensional‑reduction strike against them.

The environment used to be harsh; now with mechs, White Stone Beach is about to take off.

Looking for trouble? Our flesh‑and‑blood bodies here, while others arrive in mechs.

Ten mechs could reach their stronghold.

Before they could be shameless and act rogue.

Now, faced with absolute power, they can only stay far away to avoid any conflict, hoping others won't be as shameless and rogue as they are.

White Elephant is like that, and other nations are no different.

King of land warfare, paired with a mech?

How can you even fight this?

The video now has comments from 500,000 people.

【Thanks to Daxia for being the first to have mechs; for some other countries it could have sparked a war.】

【We, living comfortably, are the ancestors of mechs; did Cyber grant the copyright?】

【Daxia people are really interesting; with such powerful machines, they first think of work, not military use!】

【This is Big Building; they never thought of plundering others, they are diligent, peace‑loving, and advocate self‑reliance.】

【Just returned from a Daxia tour; honestly, I feel we live in a primitive society, far behind. Daxia is transforming at an unprecedented speed.】

【I agree with the floor above; world economy is so poor, yet Daxia is evolving wildly. They've poured countless funds to reshape living conditions, providing jobs for those displaced by tech, and only those who have been to Daxia understand what the service industry truly is.】

【Yes, as long as you have ideas, Daxia's New Business Model can quickly realize them, whereas here monopolies and high startup barriers make society and economy stagnant.】

【Capable people must join Daxia's New Business Model; you can easily fulfill your value.】

【Even if you're not in Daxia, you can use cp‑app to find places to apply your abilities; many have secured offers from Daxia companies this way.】

【They are transforming deserts and plateaus; what are we doing? Decoupling, inflating, playing financial games—this world is beyond saving.】

【From above, latest news: the Heavenly Vessel Project uses Ocean Home's sea‑city technology to build a Sea Hangtiancheng, shedding geographic disadvantages and gaining an equatorial launch site.】

【Alas, their holographic projection apps are becoming ubiquitous; they now have holographic 3D theaters, giving an immersive feel—the holographic movie era has arrived.】

【Their low‑altitude economy is also booming; small aircraft numbers are rising rapidly, and parents drive three‑wheelers to take their kids to school.】

【The mech is stunning, but seeing Daxia's other advances makes it feel inevitable; their tech innovation is developing at high speed.】

【Yes, tell me they achieve fusion tomorrow and I won't be surprised, because today's Daxia is like that; their technological progress is just too fast.】

【Their blind can now see, the deaf can hear, the cripple can run; they are erasing the word 'disability'.】

【Their ugly freaks can even become beauties now.】

【Their artificial heart transplants are skyrocketing, while the organ‑transplant market shrinks.】

……………

"Increase investment; we also need exoskeleton mechs. Without mechs we'll have no confidence. After drones, this is the most battlefield‑changing asset."

"The world is changing; Daxia now holds decisive military superiority."

"Steal, seize, bring the technology back to us."

Those who once had thoughts about Hidden Dragon have now lowered their flags and drums.

Countries that originally resisted Daxia's New Business Model are quickly changing their tone.

"Based on mutual benefit, we will prioritize cooperative development of parts of the New Business Model."

The New Business Model requires an entire new manufacturing system.

This cooperation essentially means adopting Daxia's manufacturing standards and importing a full suite of hardware and software.

It also indirectly acknowledges Daxia's dominant position in the world.

From now on Daxia will be the leading elder; you can do whatever you say.

That's roughly the meaning.

Who wants to hand over their soul?

Isn't it because they're forced?

Daxia's development speed is so rapid that they also fear being left behind.

Yang Nuolan has no idea how much the mech's emergence has changed the world.

She only knows that the Cyborg company's market cap reached twenty trillion in such a short time.

That scale is astonishing.

Everyone is rushing to match the GDP of those living comfortably.

Money‑rich Yang Nuolan's heart pounds at this valuation, feeling unreal.

At that moment, Jiaweis entered Yang Nuolan's office.

Then splashed a basin of cold water on her.

"According to recent online information summaries, Cyber has attracted a lot of attention, and future security risks will increase dramatically."

"The security of the Cyborg company needs to be raised another level."

"Your personal safety also needs to be strengthened."

"Additionally, the mechs at White Stone Beach face a greatly increased chance of being seized or stolen."

"You need to pay attention."

"Moreover, Daxia's current manufacturing industry is sufficient to support other companies in quickly achieving breakthroughs in related technologies."

"The technological advantage of the mechs is not enough to let Cyber rest easy."

"According to our forecast, within the next one to three years, the likelihood that other companies will achieve breakthroughs in mech technology is very high."

"The technology we possess, the probability that they will find alternative technology worldwide is very high, one could even say it is inevitable."
