Watching and touring the whole space station, it was surreal for Robin. What would the other sophisticated space stations be like if this inferior space station was already so amazing?

"Has it aligned to the Ark on the Yellow Sea?" After becoming content with the surroundings, Robin enquired. Although the space station was modest in comparison, it was equipped with everything needed for human survival. Its own plantation and crops were present. For those who lived there, there was more than enough food available.

"Yes, sir." -JARVIS.

"Start the construction." Ordered by Robin.

"Estimating the amount of time needed to complete the building. Estimated time to finish the construction if only human species did the work - 5 months. Estimated time to finish if humans and the alien civilization joined hands - 2 months." -EVE.

"Oh! Then request Novus' assistance in building space elevators." said Robin. JARVIS and EVE took note and it would soon be passed to the Novus. The Novus had been very busy lately with the changes going on with the work.

However, they had more than enough bases to create the additional Constructors needed to finish building the first space elevator on Earth.

The medications that LabCorps had finally acquired had entered the market, and when individuals learned of this news, it completely blew their minds. The Miracle drug was a huge success. Following FDA approval, this new drug went viral.

At first the doctors on any accidental emergencies used them. It stopped internal bleeding, fractured bones, gashes, and large cuts, but more crucially for America, it assisted those involved in gun violence.

The doctors' group was compelled to work with the police after the drug's first month of instant success. Every police officer was permitted to carry a supply of these medications, which they could use to treat both themselves and the people they fired their weapons at. This was the initial adjustment that had individuals smitten with the drug.

After all, why not. 'You got shot? Here, take the medicine and heal. By the way, you are under arrest and have the right to remain silent.' 'Gang vs Police war? After the shootout is done, serving the half dead ones with the medicine.'

But there were also folks who were unhappy in these circumstances. specifically the insurance industry. It would appear favorable at first because businesses wouldn't be required to pay for any damages. But it had a serious drawback.

The drawback was that after the drug entered the market, individuals began to gradually stop applying for accidental insurance since they didn't want to shell out such a large sum of money to these businesses when they could simply take a pill and be done with it.

Companies' revenue was rapidly declining, which paralyzed them and their lobbyist clients. All they could do was go up to the President.

"Mr. President, we cannot continue in this manner. Our economy will crash if we allow the drugs to drain the people's funds. "- The top lobbyist.

"Mr. President, you must realize. We don't need another pain right now with the growing inflation rates, so if we don't stop the medicine, financing for a lot of crucial projects might end." - Second lobbyist.

"I'll see what I can do, but the FDA has approved the medicine just like you, therefore it falls under their purview. If you believe that you are being given an unfair advantage, you can file a lawsuit." stated the President. Every President dreaded having to deal with it during their terms in office. Fights between two groups. In a way both of the groups were important and a necessity.

These folks were at a loss for words since they were aware that they could never go to court because if they did, the public would rip them to shreds, and even if they did, the FDA had the support of influential individuals. Some of these individuals were on their side as well, but they were absent from the President's meeting.

Remember that this was taking place prior to the summit in Pyongyang, thus the President was unaware of the location of the drug's true source at the time. After the President came back from Pyongyang, he had already announced internally that the medicine technology and the med pods that were available in North Korea would be shared soon, across the country.

Naturally, these lobbyists returned and voiced their complaints. The President responded by saying.

"Just shut up! Have you noticed how they are encroaching on other nations? Do you want to be taken away by them too?" Yelled the President. In their presence, he had completely lost all of his composure and charm. He had been experiencing anxiousness for the previous few days, and now these folks had simply appeared to add to his misery.

"Mister President. We are the world's most potent countries. Why should we be afraid of those Koreans? We engaged them in combat during the Korean War." As many others did, he believed that this was an overreaction, someone stated.

"You took part in the Korean War? None of your grandfathers or fathers participated in the conflict. And we WERE the world's most powerful country. Do you think North Korea would have been allowed to dance in our land if we had enough power. So just shut the fuck up and get lost. Some of you are already operating on borrowed time." Everyone tensed up in response to the President's comments, which he uttered. They wanted to question more, but when the Secret Service arrived, they were essentially expelled.

The same thing was happening in other countries as well, not only at the White House. Since the FDA had already approved it, other countries rapidly followed. While Robin and his buddies were running around throughout the past few months, Sigret and Myrene were busy handling this matter.

They went and initially presented the drugs to the different countries. Naturally, the lobbyists who owned stock in insurance companies and the pharmaceutical industry didn't like that and expressed their displeasure by protesting and even making veiled threats. Only to be exposed to the police of their wrong doings with evidence or threatened in return by showing up at their homes.

The lobbyists were humiliated at the time and intended to avenge the President's words, but they were hauled out of the White House by police only moments later. They at last realized what the President had meant when he said that their days were numbered.

Of course, the medication has its own restrictions. A person who had lost limbs or an organ that was irreparably damaged could not be made to heal by the medication. However, the folks were appreciative of anything they received for such a modest cost.

Overall, there was a significant covert revamp of the world's key institutions, and even those who didn't use the internet much to stay in touch with the outside world could sense that things were beginning to shift.

October 20, 2023

Since North Korea began its global cleanup drive, many days had gone. Crimes had abruptly decreased around the world, narcotics were quickly disappearing from the streets, all rapists and pedophiles had been apprehended and imprisoned while awaiting speedy trials, and other societal changes had also taken place.

Not all was happy for the nations, though. The issues started when many senators, governors, ministers, and important dignitaries were also detained. The social media was used to produce evidence for every single arrest so that people could judge for themselves, but zealots couldn't merely take in the facts.

They believed that the nations were deceiving them and it was just the oppression of the ruling government, not seeing the fact that the people being arrested also belong to the same ruling government. For the vast majority of people on earth, it might be quiet, but for those in charge of politics, it was a nightmare.

Once more, North Korea entered the picture in this situation. Novus and Nod were constantly on the lookout for any surprise fanatic attacks on the police. They would enter right away and deal with anyone who sought to stir up trouble. Anesthetic bullets were used to shoot them.

Of course, the Novus and Nod units encountered numerous difficulties while achieving it. All sorts of actions were taken to prevent the ministers from being detained, including throwing mocktails at them and firing weapons at them. But in the end, technology won out. For the previous ten days, this had been occurring all across the planet.

Norlisk, Russia.

An opulent train was making its way to one of the world's most polluted cities. The Russian President and a few ministers were on the train. His pool of ministers had dwindled down in the last few days due to arrests. There weren't many of them remaining.

"Sir, we will be in the city of Norlisk in half an hour. Please arrange yourself." One of the guards saluted the President of Russia and said. The President nodded but continued watching the scenery from the window.

As the train's rhythmic cadence carried them closer to the city of Norilsk, Russia, the President's gaze fixed upon the world outside their window. Stark and austere, the landscape appeared cloaked in a wintry grandeur, its vastness stretching to the horizon. Towering chimneys pierced the sky, belching forth plumes of smoke that mingled with the frosty air. Grim and industrial, the city emerged from the depths of the Arctic, an imposing testament to human resilience amidst unforgiving surroundings.
