Just as the students scattered across the rooftop in panic,
Han Dong and Mr. Newton strolled at a suitable distance, using their flashlights to carefully observe the "supervisor."
"As expected, it's a mechanized product. Its operating principle seems particularly simple.
It can only capture students one on one.
Once it successfully captures someone and drags them inside, it conducts an 'inspection' lasting no more than three seconds.
With such an operating mechanism, plus so many students helping to provide cover, Mr. Newton, you should have plenty of opportunities to come into direct contact with this thing."
"The rooftop plan is perfect. Leave the rest to me."
The two, who had been walking side by side, split apart at that moment.
Han Dong maintained his original pace and safe distance, preparing to enjoy the coming performance from the perspective of an "audience member."
In Han Dong's estimation,
a wise man like Mr. Newton, who could single-handedly bring about the Holy City's complete mechanical reform,
Even Though he could not use his abilities,
should still have been able to produce some extraordinarily ingenious technology. The instant he touched the target, he might have completed ultra-fast mechanical adjustments, part replacements, and so on.
However,
what was happening before Han Dong left him rather dumbfounded.
Newton did not use the students' cover to circle around for a sneak attack at all... he actually walked straight toward the supervisor.
And he continued to do something even more outrageous.
As he approached,
Newton actually began taking off his clothes... stripping away the ill-fitting "school uniform top" that somewhat restricted the development of his body.
Under the firelight,
a perfect upper body, like a master sculptor's work, was revealed.
Combined with Mr. Newton's appearance, that body immediately called to mind The Thinker, the top-tier sculpture renowned throughout
