"Her?"
Han Su abruptly looked at Xu Ji, then slowly turned his gaze back to Xue Zhi's face.
He saw certainty in his eyes.
A suspicion he had already dismissed was now being confirmed by Xue Zhi himself.
Could the Emperor's Follower Anwei had mentioned really be this heartless guy?
He knew that if Xue Zhi had said it so confidently, there had to be a reason. But considering Wei Lan's current situation, he forced himself to hold back, lowered his head, and picked up the suggestions Xue Zhi had written on the note. He read them one by one, his expression growing increasingly grave.
The situation on Wei Lan's end had become clear. Her image had taken deep root in the hearts of the residents of Light Machine City and the other disaster-stricken cities.
This had been an easy first step. After all, these cities had effectively been abandoned, so there was no resistance. While Wei Lan was still on her way to Light Machine City, Han Su had already notified Anwei, and she had completed the information campaign without difficulty.
Severe damage and power outages?
For the Copper Believers, that was as simple as could be.
Anwei had plenty of one thing at her disposal: Copper Believers. The cities around Light Machine City were full of peripheral Copper Believers influenced by Professor Philal. Their standing was, of course, low; they weren't even worthy of being considered disciples by Professor Philal.
But for these peripheral believers, activating the cities' remaining power and broadcasting a few news clips was easy.
Those few news clips implanted Wei Lan's image in the minds of the residents of Light Machine City and the other cities in a powerful, exaggerated way. It was the kind of effect every Queen dreamed of achieving.
