However, the recent probing wasn't without its silver lining for Chen Ming.
First of all, Chen Ming could determine that the Mind Pulse generated by the Mind Pulse Generator wasn't directional; otherwise, he would have experienced its influence throughout the process.
Secondly, through the spacecraft's camera recordings, Chen Ming could see.
That he had immediately chosen to fire in retaliation upon discovering the hostile behavior of the Mechanical Race, with nearly half of the machine gun's bullets hitting the target.
Although the bullets that hit the two combat Mechanical Races were almost entirely deflected by their seemingly worn armor, having no effect.
But the bullets that hit the Mind Pulse device behind did indeed damage part of its outer shell.
Even though the damage looked like it would be repaired soon by the four-handed maintenance Mechanical Race.
