In East 824 District, Ronan had continuously reinforced his nearly distorted position of power in Tao Ju's mind under the identity of "Tang Li," instilling fear, dependence, and a directional pull in his thoughts and emotions to establish a connection. He had also imitated the empowerment model of Hundred Peaks Monarch and the Hun Dun Order in Inner Earth, guiding Tao Ju to harness the coordinated pulses of vegetation and even microbial colonies in the natural environment to form a basic Power Framework.
Tao Ju, who had previously undergone extensive modifications to his Intelligent Machine System, actually possessed the necessary foundation. It was simply that doing so would affect and disrupt his already established operating system, causing mutual interference. This was precisely why, despite being guided into awakening, he had been unable to wield it freely.
Moreover, the cybernetic equipment system inside him was probably throwing errors constantly. It might even draw Zuo Tai's attention, killing two birds with one stone.
Now that Tao Ju had come looking for him, Ronan intended to take the experiment a step further.
The framework of Hundred Peaks Monarch worked over there without issue. What would happen if he sent some power through it?
He would use the methods those Evil Cult organizations employed to obtain Extraordinary Power, transmitting energy from the Mist Labyrinth and from Hundun at the Relay Station, to test the feasibility and controllability of this approach. If it did not alert the High-Energy Center, the Intelligence Management Center, or even the Reclamation Corps, then this would prove to be an excellent experimental route worth further study.
If it did alert them, the Evil Cult organizations would take the blame first. Even if they later traced it to Tang Li and stirred up another disturbance, they would never suspect an existence
