Chapter 342: Crazy Killing
"You can't go. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
It was a simple four words, but it made Josh's eyes instantly condense.
This is definitely not the so-called joke between old friends, in fact, Ulysses and Josh have known each other for more than ten years, but to say old friends, it is obviously nonsense, one is the leader of the United States, the other is the giant of the Skull and Bones Society, although the two sides often meet, but every time they meet, they are fighting for the most beneficial things for the forces behind them, this delicate relationship may make the two sympathize with each other, but no one regards anyone as a friend, at most it is an acquaintance.
So, Ulysses' words are not a joke.
This is... Threat!
And it's an extremely powerful threat.
Ulysses is the only one facing them now, but they are now in the White House.
And it is also a White House where dozens or hundreds of SSS+ masters are gathered at this time.
What if Josh is an X-rank master?
What if Robin is also an X-level master?
More than a hundred SSS+ level masters rushed over with loaded guns and ammunition, using various weapons, and the two X-level masters couldn't stop it at all.
They can also do it directly to Ulysses.
But as long as they are not idiots, no one will do it.
Skeletons will be rich, skeletons will manipulate elections, skeletons will control the United States, skeletons will be the god of America, similar words everyone can say, the water is not too big, but directly attack the president of the United States when his life is threatened?
This kind of thing is not impossible, but it is definitely not in the White House, when there are only two of them, against the president of the United States.
After all, in any case, Ulysses is the supreme leader of the United States today, and once they kill Ulysses, if the evidence is conclusive, the entire Skull and Bones Society will be frantically suppressed by the U.S. government.
But Ulysses, on the other hand, would have had much less concern if he had done something to Josh.
"You threaten me. ā
After a brief silence, Josh spoke in a flat tone, not an interrogative sentence, but an affirmative sentence, and it was clear that he had identified the meaning of Ulysses' words, in other words, that in his mind, the relationship between him and Ulysses had deteriorated.
Ulysses is not afraid of this, and let the Skull and Bones Society's financial resources protect the patriarch of Atlas, which is the most important part of his plan, and it is also the part that the Skull and Bones Society will never agree to under normal negotiations, Ulysses has no choice, he has to do it, even if it is a threat, even if it is to completely offend Josh.
"You can think so. ā
Ulysses's tone was slow and cold: "The United States is facing war now, everything I do, is for victory, you are an American citizen, the Skull and Bones are also American citizens, it is the duty of every citizen to help the United States through the difficulties." ā
"U.S. citizens?"
Josh suddenly laughed, and his smile was unusually bright, but immediately after, the skull and bones guild president's roar rang out in the office: "You know that we are American citizens! Then why should I pay to help an outsider?! Atlas Ellahn? What is that?! Is he an American? Does he have American citizenship? Does he understand the United States? You are now going to hand over the leadership of nearly two million American troops to an outsider, why should I help you? I don't agree, Congress doesn't agree, the whole United States doesn't agree! That's right, you're president, so what? You don't represent the United States, and you don't have the authority to appoint a foreigner as the supreme marshal of the U.S. military!"
"Only Ellain can fight against the emperor, he has enough masters, his help can allow the United States to re-establish the special service system and protect the security of the United States, this is our only choice, otherwise we don't even have to wait for the war to break out, just the special forces of the Shenzhou Empire and the imperial family are here, it is enough to make us at a loss, Lin Xuanyuan is an example, isn't it? He just destroyed a base of the Marine Corps!"
Ulysses looked irritated and said, "I don't care if he is an outsider or not, he can protect the security of the United States, and that's enough." ā
And in my opinion, when Atlas enters the United States, their role will not be the so-called protector, but the aggressor, they will infiltrate all areas of the United States and compete for the power of the Americans, and at that time, will the United States still be the United States?"
Josh was-for-tat, the mocking look in his expression becoming more and more obvious.
"It's not something you should think about. Josh, my friend, you should understand my situation, the current situation is very urgent, we have to take some other special measures, you have to understand that the United States is not infiltrated by whoever wants to, Atlas enters the United States, can only be assimilated by the United States, not Atlas assimilates the United States. What if the military had an extra five-star general? We have a lot of means to counterbalance Atlas, don't we? I need your help. It's not a threat, you can take this as a request from an old friend. ā
Ulysses took a deep breath and looked at Josh seriously, his eyes very sincere.
Silent.
Josh fell silent again.
Time ticks by.
The atmosphere seemed to be softening again.
Robin, who was nearby, slowly relaxed, his eyelids drooped, and his eyes closed.
"What if I still refuse, old friend?"
After a long time, Josh asked lightly.
Or refuse...
Ulysses' chest heaved violently, and the whole office surrounded him and roared, "You're pushing me!
Josh didn't say a word, but looked at him quietly, a glint in his eyes.
"Make your terms! Conditions that will allow you to build momentum for Atlas! Josh, we can sit here today, so I don't think there's anything that can't be discussed, what are your terms?"
Ulysses tried to calm the churning emotions in his heart, and said in a cold tone.
There is no doubt that when this sentence is spoken, both sides will show their final hole cards.
"Mr. President, you might as well tell me the price you are prepared to pay, and if it is appropriate, I will consider it. ā
Josh smiled quietly, "Just like you said, there's nothing you can't talk about." ā
Ulysses' breathing suddenly became a little shorter, he hesitated, gritted his teeth, got up, pulled a document from his desk drawer and threw it to Josh.
"This is my bottom line, and it is also the limit of what I can do, as long as you are willing to agree, everything on the document, I will honor it as soon as possible, but you must guarantee that within half a month, the voice of the people will be unified, at least the voice of the majority, we are pressed for time, and Al Laan must sit in the position of a five-star general as soon as possible." ā
Ulysses spoke in an indifferent tone, he was telling the truth, a series of conditions on the documents were already the limit of what he could bear, he originally planned to leave some as bargaining chips, but seeing Josh's attitude, he still took out all the documents.
Josh's eyes narrowed, he flipped through the file, and glanced at it roughly, only to see the first item on the document, his face was already slightly moved.
He directly believed Ulysses' words, but the price that Ulysses was prepared to pay on the document was already Ulysses' bottom line, and he would never allow the skeleton to make other demands.
The Skull and Bones will only have to say yes!
Ten minutes passed in a flash.
Josh quickly flipped through the papers, his breathing becoming a little shorter.
The paper was a thick stack, unusually detailed, and he read it quickly, only roughly scanning it, but even so, Josh had a feeling that he couldn't hold it.
Ulysses smoked silently, sat behind his desk, and said nothing.
Another ten minutes passed.
Josh exhaled deeply, clutched the papers in his hand, and looked up at Ulysses.
"How?"
Ulysses asked lightly.
"Deal. ā
Josh nodded, his tone extremely solemn.
"So be it. ā
Ulysses waved his hand, and the meaning of sending off the guest was extremely obvious.
Josh nodded, stood up, and led Robin straight to the office door.
"That's right. ā
When he was about to go out, Josh turned around, looked at Ulysses, and said with a smile: "Lin Xuanyuan appeared in Baltimore? The Skeleton Society has arranged some elites there, if Mr. President needs help, the Skeleton Society can take action, although Lin Xuanyuan cannot be left, but with the local army, it can still cause some trouble to Lin Xuanyuan." ā
"No need. ā
Ulysses shook his head: "Atlas's men will kill him." ā
"Okay. ā
Josh shrugged his shoulders and said to himself, "Maybe when Atlas's people arrive in Baltimore, Lin Xuanyuan will have already left." ā
Ulysses did not speak.
Josh smiled and waved, opened the door to his office, and walked away.
Outside the White House, thunder was incessant and rain was pouring down.
