Blunt-bodied drones whizzed to and fro with a noise like miniature high-powered automobiles, as if anxious to convey the idea of being tremendously busy without going to the length of doing any actual work. One of these blundered into Lord Dawlish's face, and it pleased Elizabeth to observe that he gave a jump. 'Don't be afraid, she said, 'it's only a drone. Drones have no stings.

Trigger took another seat a few feet away. She felt a little nervous, but she'd always wanted to see a high-powered diplomat in action. The screen lit up. She recognized Roadgear from his pics. Tall, fine-looking man of the silvered sideburns type. He was in an armchair in a very plush office. "Congratulations, Commissioner!" he said, smiling.
She heard the soft buzz of a high-powered car, and presently two lights appeared at the further end. They came towards her swiftly, almost silently. It was like the swoop of an immense bird. And then in the strong glare shed forth by the hall-lamps she saw the huge body of an ambulance-car, and a Red Cross flared symbolic in the light.

"And then you think that p'raps those men are wardens, looking for poachers that are breaking the law some way or other?" Giraffe asked. "I only said that might be who they are," Thad insisted. "You notice they have a high-powered boat that could make circles all around, ours, if they wanted to let her engine out.
The high-powered scout and battle plane rose with a rush and almost immediately began to climb, spiraling in long acute sweeps and turns. "There they come!" breathed Lafe, venturing a last look around down below.
This last time it was two high-powered guns, picking at long range and, if I'm any judge of rifles and the men probably behind them, some one must have got hurt. It's all a guess but I'm going in there, peaceably if I can, to look for Henry de Spain; if we are fired on we've got to fight for it.
