In the pouring rain, an ordinary black Buick sedan departed from St. Mary's Hospital, and after passing by numerous military trucks along the way, the sedan eventually entered a high-end villa area not far from the Capitol. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the gate of the villa area, the security guard originally planned to check and register the Buick in accordance with the rules and regulations, but just approached, the window of the driver's seat had fallen, and the young car owner with a serious expression of coldness handed over a document casually, and shook it at the security guard, and the expression of the security guard in progress suddenly became respectful, and he did not forget to bow slightly while opening the door, and directly released the black Buick.

In the United States, government agencies and officials are usually subject to all kinds of restrictions and supervision because of institutional problems, but the military, which ostensibly obeys the president's orders but is actually full of factions, is different, and in the eyes of Americans, the military deters the people even more than the government, and no one will provoke anyone with military credentials.

What's more, the owner of the black Buick not only holds military documents, but is also a genuine major general, this kind of real power figure who involves military secrets at every turn, the security guards naturally dare not interrogate at will.

Buick stopped in front of one of the best located villas in the area.

The four-storey villa is a long way above the surrounding buildings, in the very center, and the area beyond the driveway is almost entirely surrounded by lawns and flower beds, giving it a luxurious and majestic look.

The young man parked the car at the door at random, and after ringing the doorbell, he stood straight and waited, and the rain drenched him all over in the blink of an eye, but he stood motionless, like a javelin, straight and straight.

Soon, a young man with an umbrella trotted out of the courtyard of the villa, opened the door, and smiled: "General Bolton, welcome." ”

Major General Bolton, commander of the Flame Assault Division.

At least a quarter of the tens of thousands of U.S. troops surrounding St. Mary's Hospital today are Bolton's men, and they are the most elite.

"Is the councillor here?"

Bolton nodded, strode into the yard, and asked casually.

"Yes, I'm in my study watching the video of the investiture ceremony that just took place at the White House, and you can go straight to him. ”

The young man tried to hold an umbrella for Bolton and replied in a respectful tone.

Bolton nodded, walked through the yard, and walked directly into the villa, wet and wet, he just took off his coat casually, and walked to the study on the second floor without stopping.

"General, what do you want to drink? coffee or wine?"

The young man downstairs shouted downstairs.

Major General Bolton, who was about to push open the door of the study, paused, shook his head and said, "No need, thank you." ”

Push the door in.

The majestic and impassioned sound of the national anthem rushed into Bolton's ears the moment he pushed the door in, mixed with enthusiastic applause and Al Lahn's calm voice.

A white man in his forties was sitting on a couch with a cigar in his hand, looking intently at the wall in front of him.

There is a huge LCD screen hanging on the wall, and all the sounds in the study room come from the inside of the screen.

Bolton glanced at it, and subconsciously pouted, the screen was the award ceremony he had attended a few hours ago, even if he was watching it once, Bolton still felt that the medal of the five-star general on Ellahn's shoulder was extremely dazzling.

That's the kind of feeling that parliamentarians will have, right?

Bolton subconsciously looked at the middle-aged man.

The other party's expression was still focused, and he didn't seem to see him come in, and he didn't mean to talk to him.

Bolton waited silently.

The ceremony on the screen finally ended with applause, and the councillor on the couch pressed a pause before looking at Bolton.

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the screen, smiled, and said in a soft tone, "A farce, right?"

"Yes, but this farce is not simple. ”

Bolton replied calmly.

Of course, Ulysses, in order to stabilize his position, put the future and future of the United States on the line, and this ceremony in front of him can be said to be a farce, but it can also be said to be a disaster. ”

The councillor said in a calm tone, raising his hand and taking a hard puff on the cigar in his hand.

Bolton was slightly surprised, he understood that Atlas's entry into the United States would not be a good thing, but the worst expectation was just the rise of another giant, and the situation in all aspects of the United States would be impacted, but after a short impact, a new balance would naturally be reached in the country, no matter what, he would not have thought that Atlas's entry into the United States would affect the future and future of the country.

That's a bit heavy.

"The relationship between Ulysses and Ellahn is not simple, not even very harmonious, the death of General Roth Bruce faintly proves this, what was found at the scene?"

The councilor was silent for a moment, then asked in a low tone.

"No, I'm investigating, but the murderer is obviously not simple, everything is done cleanly, and it is not easy to lock the other party, I still need some time. ”

Bolton said softly, in a respectful tone.

"Take your time, do it secretly, and be careful to keep it secret. ”

The councillor nodded, and after a momentary change, continued, "How's St. Mary's Hospital?"

"It's arranged. ”

Bolton said confidently: "Colonel Crassus will perfectly carry out my orders, if Lin Xuanyuan and them break through, the Flame Assault Division will focus on preserving strength." ”

"Good, you're doing a great job. ”

The councillor smiled approvingly, and looked at Bolton's eyes softening: "Bolton, don't you want to know why I want you to do this?"

"It doesn't matter. ”

Bolton shook his head: "The important thing is that I believe that you will not do anything bad for the United States, and that's enough." ”

"Thank you for your trust, Bolton. ”

The councillor nodded, he thought about it, shook his head again, and said: " These things are very complicated, it is difficult for me to explain clearly, and even some of them are speculated by myself, if my speculation is correct, then in this matter, whether it is Ulysses or Ellahn, their purposes are contradictory but not contradictory, I don't know what Ulysses is thinking, but he is not stupid, especially after Atlas showed his strength, Ulysses cannot fully trust Ellahn, so he needs to balance Atlas's power, the royal family, is the most ideal candidate, so Ulysses may still be struggling, whether to leave Lin Xuanyuan and them to negotiate with the royal family。 But for Ellain, there are a few people who have to die, such as Lin Xuanyuan, such as Wang Fuyu, these are the two most important people, as for the others, it is not important, I heard that there are four supremes who attacked St. Mary's Hospital this time? In fact, under normal circumstances, as long as Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu are dead, Ellain will even let the others go, and based on this alone, the goals of Ellain and Ulysses may conflict. ”

"Why is that?!"

Bolton was a little puzzled: "Are you saying that after killing Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu, Ellain is even very likely to show mercy to his subordinates?

"Mercy?"

The councillor smiled and shook his head: " He won't do it so obviously, but it's always okay to deliberately pretend to be seriously injured, what Al Rahn wants is to win the war between the United States and the Shenzhou Empire, not to completely eliminate the royal family, especially at this time, before they gain a stable foothold, if they eliminate the royal family, then they will have no value in existence, so Al Rahn himself is also very conflicted, he must weaken the royal family, but he can't completely eliminate it, he must control the strength of the royal family to the point where it can threaten Atlas but not have a fatal impact on Atlas, and now the three giants of the royal family are all world-shaking supremes, and the emperor he can't kill, then Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu are the best choice, as long as the two of them die, the royal family will be greatly injured, but they also have the strength to threaten Atlas, but this threat will be much smaller, at least if I were Ellain, I would kill Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu with all my might, and then deliberately let Ye Liuli go. Of course, all of this is only true when Atlas's high-end combat power is not damaged, just imagine that if Adolf dies, then Ellaan can only choose to continue to kill Ye Liuli, only in this way can it be guaranteed that Atlas has an advantage over the royal family. ”

Bolton listened in a daze, his head swelled, and he subconsciously shook his head violently.

The councillor laughed and continued: "Of course, these are just my personal speculations, in fact, I, like you, am just an outsider, but I think a little more, and it is possible that it is all cranky, the situation is too chaotic now, but it will not affect us in a short time, so don't think too much, as long as Crassus can complete today's task, when the good show is staged in the future, we will have the opportunity to participate." ”

Bolton nodded silently.

"You go back first, I have an important video reply, so I won't keep you. ”

The MP stood up, shook Bolton's hand, and watched Bolton leave his office, where he sat back down on the couch and sent a video request.

The video request took three minutes to connect.

A middle-aged man with a little blood on his body appears on the screen.

A man who should but shouldn't.

Emperor!

Emperor of the Imperial Family!

"Did Your Majesty forget to change your clothes? ”

The councillor was still sitting on the sofa, looking at the emperor with a calm expression, and his tone was somewhat exaggerated and joking.

"There's no time, there's no extra preparation, none of that matters, is it? Councillor Dabinit, I want you to bring me the news I want to hear. ”

On the screen, the emperor said in a flat tone.

Dabinite Charlemagne.

Member of the U.S. Senate.

Senior MP.

The strongest contender in the current presidential race!

The political bloc to which Dabinite belongs is one of the most powerful political groups in the United States today, and Dabinite is also regarded by the outside world as the most promising powerful person to succeed Ulysses.

If it weren't for the fact that the timing was too sensitive to put Ulysses in the foreground, Dabinite would have at least seventy percent certainty that he would have made it to the top.

This is the real big man in the United States.

Dabinite has been secretly dealing with the royal family for nearly ten years, and this time when the conflict broke out between the United States and the royal family, he did not rush to contact the emperor, in his opinion, this is completely an opportunity, Ulysses is disgraced, and his prestige is lost, it is completely his chance to ascend to the throne, if there is no shadow of war, he may have sat in that coveted position now.

But since there was war, he was not in a hurry, and threw all the mess to Ulysses to clean up, and when Ulysses was almost done, he drove him down, and then sat down himself.

That's what Dabinite intended.

However, the Atlas clan's entry into the United States disrupted all his plans, especially after Atlas showed his strength, Dabinite suddenly found that although Ulysses' position was shaky, with Atlas's support, it was not easy to pull him down, so Dabinite finally began to contact the emperor and reached some secret agreements.

These secret agreements, which are destined to be undisclosed, are also destined to be full of lies and cunning, but no matter how many conspiracies and traps there are, at least for now, neither side has turned its back on the other.

"I do have good news in preparation, Your Majesty, I wonder if you have any good news for me?"

Dabinite took a puff on his cigar and asked unhurriedly.

The emperor's expression softened imperceptibly, and he said lightly: "Three billion dollars will enter your account within an hour, how about this news?"

"That's good news, dollars, it's the cutest thing. ”

Dabinit's smile became more and more pleasant: " Your Majesty, if your people's combat strength will be as you estimated, then their final breakthrough will not be a problem, the Flame Assault Division will take a concession attitude in the process of their breakthrough, and then lead other troops to respond negatively, in the current state, this is the limit of what I can do, as for how they leave the United States, you need to find a way, in addition, the only thing I can do is to restrain the troops I can influence to search and pursue them, but that is only a part, the rest, I can't do anything。 ”

"If only they could break through. ”

The Emperor nodded and said.

"And the war..."

Dabinite looked at the Emperor and said tentatively quietly.

The emperor looked at Dabinite expressionlessly, and after a while, he suddenly smiled and said: "My purpose is to rescue Wang Fuyu, as long as my people can come back safely, this war that is not pleasing to both sides, I will consider canceling it." ”

"Of course, of course, I fully believe in Your Majesty's influence in the Shenzhou Empire, it's terrifying!"

Dabinite suddenly became excited, and his tone was much higher, "Your Majesty, please believe me, the benefits of a truce to the royal family are far greater than the benefits of a war to the royal family, this is my sincere words." ”

"Yes, I believe. ”

The emperor smiled and nodded, the whole person seemed to be wearing a mask, hypocritical but natural.

Dabinite seemed extremely excited, smiled and nodded again, unable to hide his emotions.

He helped the royal family, so that all the royal family successfully broke through, and the price the emperor had to pay was a truce, which was also part of the agreement, if there was really a truce, then the breakthrough of Lin Xuanyuan and others would become the last straw that crushed Ulysses, and then he would ascend to the position of president of the United States and directly control the most powerful country in the world!

Dreams are just around the corner.

Dabinit's entire body trembled slightly.

"I'm waiting for good news from you, Dabinit. ”

On the screen, the emperor's voice sounded again.

"You'll be waiting for the good news you want right away. ”

Dabinite's tone became more polite.

The Emperor nodded and did not speak.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the Divine Empire is now holding a central plenum, is the meeting still going well?"

Dabinite paused, then asked suddenly.

The emperor glanced at him and said casually: "Now that it has gone well, the flies have been found, unfortunately, I didn't wait for the surprise that Ellain gave me, not a single X-level master." ”

"So what are you going to do next..."

Dabinit tentatively spoke.

The Emperor smiled and said calmly: "Since Ellain can't surprise me, then I will surprise him, and in sixteen hours, I will arrive in the United States." ”

At the most unlikely time, the emperor went to the United States as quickly as possible!!

This is definitely earth-shattering news.

Dabinite shook slightly, then bowed deeply and said with a smile: "Welcome to the United States, Your Majesty." ”

Weaken Atlas, which was also part of the agreement between the two.

The call was then cut off.

At the same time.

Kyushu City, inside the lounge of the Keisai Hotel.

The emperor looked at the hang-up video, and the whole person fell into deep thought.

"Truce? After Xuanyuan and they leave the United States, will there really be a truce?"

In the lounge, Wang Tianxiong sat on the sofa and asked with a smile.

"Bullshit!"

The emperor said lightly: "When Xuanyuan and them leave the United States, it will be the beginning of the whole war, and I lied to him." ”

For this world-class tyrant who has been watching the world for decades, conspiracy and lies are things that have long been integrated into his blood and bones.

It's definitely no more difficult to do than to eat and drink.
