At this moment, in Ian's mind, those floating cities were no longer just floating cities, but rather orbital brainwashing devices, mind controllers!
Although this mind controller might only gather people under one banner, slightly ignoring free will, if everyone could join hands for mutual development instead of dragging each other down, it would definitely be a great boon for Terra!
The only issue is that even this possibility is speculative, and they have no clue what Axel really intends to do.
Yes, he most probably wants to use the floating cities and shield network, as well as the shield technology exchanged, to force consensus... but this consensus is actually fragile, akin to the moral decay of previous epochs, and once the calamity ends, this consensus might gradually revert to reality.
Not only that.
At this moment, Ian thought of more.
