It’s a strange invasion, is it okay for me to fight back?

Chapter 727 (Part 1)
All the attendees began to chime in with their opinions, and the more Pei Xianjue listened, the more confused she became. Although many people expressed that the nest should be protected, the phrase "destroy the nest" was like a time bomb that could explode at any moment.

Pei Xianjue didn't know how she managed to get through the meeting. When she came to her senses, the big screen had already gone out, and her back was covered in cold sweat.

She left the meeting room and found Baozi and Huangfu Miaomiao waiting for her outside the door.

As soon as Huangfu Miaomiao saw her, she complained, "Zhengzheng won't let me go to Qingjiang. She said it's safer for me to stay in the quarantine zone until we catch the meteor."

Baozi said, "Lin Pengpeng has already led the team to board the plane, and they are expected to arrive in Qingjiang in two hours."

Pei Xianjue was still caught up in the meeting and did not respond for a long time.

Baozi looked at her suspiciously. "Are you feeling unwell? Should we call a doctor?"

“No need…” Pei Xianjue’s gaze fell on Huangfu Miaomiao’s face. “I’ll take Miaomiao back to her room first. If the technical department tracks down the contaminant, notify me immediately.”

Pei Xianjue led Huangfu Miaomiao back to her residence to rest.

Huangfu Miaomiao chattered on and on: "I also want to go back and help. Even though the Taoist priest turned into a weasel, he can still go back to Qingjiang. Why can't I go back? Honestly, if I showed myself, it might be easier to catch Meteor... Humph, if it weren't for the fact that Feng Ling only has one life source pillar, we wouldn't have given Meteor the chance to launch a sneak attack. Once Feng Ling comes out of the nest, we must build more nests! The more the better!"

Pei Xianjue's head was throbbing with pain.

Building multiple nests can certainly mitigate risks, but in cities, nests and pollutants will compete for space and resources for human activities, creating an irreconcilable conflict.

Now how to do?
It will take at least seven days for Windfeather to emerge from its nest, but those pollutants will cross the border in less than seven days—it wouldn't matter if it were just cat spiders and kites, but all the pollutants in the maze have also come out.

Pei Xianjue returned to her room and turned on her computer to check her emails.

Clicking on the attachment reveals an overseas news video: a massive pollutant surges onto the streets, paralyzing traffic, and people scream in terror in the footage.

The scene then shifts to a dozen or so pollutants on the sea surface, resembling ancient giant crocodiles from the Cretaceous period. This area belongs to Banica and is dotted with many islands. If the giant crocodiles were to land on an island, the people on that island would face annihilation.

Pei Xianjue closed her laptop, feeling suffocated.

She rubbed her forehead and asked Huangfu Miaomiao, "Do any of you players have any items... that can make Fengling emerge from the nest a few days earlier?"

"Huh? There's no such prop," Huangfu Miaomiao said, completely oblivious to the seriousness of the situation, and asked Pei Xianjue, "Are you worried that the Mother Nest Creation won't be able to get to Qingjiang City in time to protect Feng Ling?"

Pei Xianjue looked at her helplessly, "You've got it backwards. I'm worried that they'll come too fast, too early, and bring pollution into the city, causing disaster for Qingjiang and the cities along the way!"

Huangfu Miaomiao frowned. "That's true... but we can't stop them, can we? They're here to help Feng Ling."

Pei Xianjue smiled bitterly, "The safety of people's lives is paramount. The Supervision Bureau will not tolerate pollution invasion for the sake of Feng Ling. Just now at the meeting, someone proposed to destroy the nest as the final solution to prevent the nest from attracting pollutants."

Huangfu Miaomiao was stunned after hearing this.

She couldn't understand why, when Feng Ling was clearly on the side of humanity, humanity would harm Feng Ling's interests at such a crucial moment.

This is so strange!

But judging from Pei Xianjue's expression, he didn't seem to be joking.

Pei Xianjue said dejectedly, "The person who made the proposal is Minister Yuan, who is in charge of national defense and security, and is also one of the representatives of the domestic conservatives. He has always been very dissatisfied with the development of the Supervision Bureau and often contradicts Director Mei. After all, we emerging forces with cards have challenged the old order... Sigh, never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. In short, now we can only pray that Feng Ling will recover soon."

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Miaomiao felt a surge of anger and shouted, "How could you say that?! Pray? You mean we can only leave it to fate? That we can't do anything for Feng Ling?!" "That's not what I meant!" Pei Xianjue hurriedly explained, "Within my authority, of course I will do my best to help Feng Ling! Didn't I already try to send people to Qingjiang to help? But there's nothing I can do about things beyond my capabilities! We can't change the minds of those higher up!"

"What do you mean 'above'? What's above? Aren't you above?!" Huangfu Miaomiao's face flushed red, and her eyes turned red as she clenched her fists and roared, "You said before that you got a seat at some circular meeting and entered the center of power! Now you're saying there's nothing you can do. You clearly don't want to help Feng Ling!"

Pei Xianjue explained, "I did secure a seat at the circular meeting, but if I oppose the proposal to destroy the nest, and the city is actually contaminated, I will become a sinner for all time..."

"Then what's the point of you sitting in this seat?! What's the point?!" Huangfu Miaomiao was furious, tears streaming down her face. "You rushed to sit in this seat and did absolutely nothing! Was it just for show?!"

“I!…” Pei Xianjue bit her lower lip, unsure how to refute.

Seeing Huangfu Miaomiao's tears, she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat herself.

Yes, what's the point of the power she painstakingly obtained if she can't use it?
But allowing pollutants into the city can have endless consequences!
To stop the contaminants, the nest must be destroyed, but doing so will kill Windfeather!
How to do?
How to do?
Pei Xianjue's head was throbbing so badly it felt like it was going to split open.

Huangfu Miaomiao cried for a while, then turned and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Pei Xianjue called out to her.

Huangfu Miaomiao gripped the doorknob, sobbing as she said, "I'm going to find Zhengzheng. If you won't help Fengling, we'll find a way ourselves!"

"Come back!" Pei Xianjue took a deep breath. "I'm already thinking of a way!"

Huangfu Miaomiao turned to look at her, her gaze filled with suspicion, "What idea have you come up with?"

Pei Xianjue gritted her teeth. "It's a clumsy method, but in the long history of thousands of years, this kind of clumsy method has always succeeded. I hope we can succeed too."

Huangfu Miaomiao asked hesitantly, "What exactly is this method you're talking about?"

Pei Xianjue let out a heavy breath, picked up her phone, and said, "Four words: Man can conquer nature."

She dialed the number and said, "Please connect me to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lorias."

Huangfu Miaomiao looked at her blankly.

……

Qingjiang City, Mother Nest Ecological Park.

The concrete ground cracked inch by inch, the nest had expanded by at least half its original size, the thick branches supported the ground, and the white feathers were more active than usual, swaying in the air in rhythm with the mother nest's pulse.

Su Yuqing sent an engineering team to survey the nearby buildings. Many buildings had cracks in their walls, and underground pipes had broken in several places, causing sewage to flow everywhere.

Zhou Zhou squatted on the cement outer wall of the ecological park, rubbing his nose unhappily.

The stench of the sewage affected his sense of smell.
