The cold applause remained. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But when Ulysses came to the stage, in the very embarrassing cold applause, the current leader of the United States has completely regained his calm, and what appears in people's eyes and in front of the camera is completely an amiable and confident smile, naturally, without the slightest reluctance.

This kind of cultivation and forbearance is really not something that ordinary power figures can have.

Joseph was also smiling after the initial embarrassment, and hugged Ulysses as he walked up to the stage, and the microphone was handed over, and Joseph slowly took a few steps back, and then Ulysses stood on the podium.

The atmosphere in the auditorium suddenly changed slightly, and it seemed to be a little cold.

As the current president of the United States, Ulysses's situation is even worse than Atlas, although the voice against Atlas is loud, but because of the guidance of public opinion, this family has always been the image of the savior in the American people, and it is very popular.

But Ulysses is different, neither the candidates who challenged his current position, nor the ordinary people, who have a good opinion of the president they have been so convinced in the past.

As the president of the United States, but the United States has suffered such a big loss, and even suffered humiliation, it has caused a war, and under the background that hundreds of thousands of people have died so far, except for some of Ulysses' henchmen, no one will choose to support Ulysses again.

Even in the last few years, Ulysses has done well, even very well.

Ulysses didn't care about the cold atmosphere of the scene, the pressure was great, and he had already been fully mentally prepared for everything now.

Standing on the podium, he adjusted the position of the microphone, and then said directly: "Everyone, I must announce a fact today, a fact that may already be known to everyone. ”

"Marshal Irah Atlas, and the entire Atlas family, are my closest friends. ”

When he said this, Ulysses could even clearly see the eyes of several American generals in the audience suddenly cold, and then there was some commotion.

He could even imagine Ellain's gloomy expression as if he was about to eat someone.

How could Ulysses not know Atlas's future plans? In his position, it is almost impossible for him to think less than anyone else, and in the current situation, what Atlas should do is in their best interests, as long as they think about it, they can basically draw conclusions.

But it is clear that what is in Atlas's best interests is not in the interests of Ulysses.

Therefore, with Joseph's words just now, Ulysses naturally wants to add a fire, no matter how close the cooperation is, it is impossible to lose the shadow of the fierce game if it is contaminated with power and even the future of the country, not to mention that Ulysses and Atlas are now using each other and calculating each other, and there will naturally be more twists and turns.

Ulysses seemed pleased with the reaction of the scene, smiled, and continued: "The Atlas family is not only my friends, but in a way, my nobles. ”

"Recently, a lot of media have been preaching, saying that the Atlas family is the savior of the United States, I personally think that this evaluation seems to be exaggerated, but it is undeniable that Atlas is a great help to the United States in the war is unmatched, they are all warriors, warriors who are good at crushing all conspiracies and tricks with their strength, I am proud that I can have such a friend, and I also believe that in the next war, Atlas will contribute all his strength to the United States. ”

Ulysse paused and continued, "Our country is invincible!"

In the midst of the flood of applause, the expression of Al Rahn Atlas in the background became more and more gloomy, and a trace of murderous intent appeared on the face of Cato, who had been beside him.

Ulysses's words are too heart-wrenching, his closest friend, warrior, crush all conspiracies, and in a few words, he will shape the Atlas family into a brave and righteous family, and in the days to come, unless Atlas disregards his reputation, it is really inconvenient to play any conspiracy.

"He's damned!"

Cato said in a cold tone.

"Forget it, nothing. ”

Ellaan took a deep breath, as if he wanted to spit out all the stuffiness in his chest at once, he suddenly smiled and said: "It's understandable that he did this, after all, he will definitely have conditions to support Atlas, do we still expect him to say nothing and do nothing?"

Cato pursed his lips and said nothing.

Ellain narrowed his eyes and continued to smile: "Moreover, he seems to be in a bit of a hurry today, it seems that the pressure he has been under these days has made him a little unbearable, so he is eager to alleviate the current situation, but it also makes him lose his senses, some words, too straightforward, can only be counterproductive." ”

Cato was stunned, thought for a while, and suddenly understood what his father meant, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The old foxes standing in the superstructure of the United States, who can be more stupid than whom?

Ulysses has his own considerations, and his opponents are not without brains, in today's award ceremony, first Joseph, then Ulysses, the two of them have a tone, repeatedly emphasizing their relationship with the Atlas family, this is completely a manifestation of weakness, and such a performance may be an opportunity for others.

Although it sounds unreliable to say this, it will definitely not make other forces in the United States test the courage to contact the Atlas family.

"Take your time, don't rush. ”

Ellaan Atlas patted Cato on the shoulder, and said in a meaningful tone, "The war has just begun. ”

"Yes, just getting started. ”

Cato nodded with a smile and a brilliant expression, both internally and externally, it was just the beginning.

He looked at Ulysses, who was still speaking on the podium, with a cold look in his eyes.

"Mr. President, you just mentioned war, I don't know if I can understand it this way, in your heart, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the United States and the Shenzhou Empire, and all disputes must be resolved through war?"

Immediately after Ulysses' brief speech, a reporter stood up and asked.

The award ceremony was made very grand and luxurious because of the people involved, but it was also simple because of the simplicity of the session.

Opening remarks, presidential remarks, press Q&A, Al Lahn's speech, press Q&A, closing.

For a total of two hours, it is naturally impossible to add some too complicated links.

"More than 200,000 people have died in the United States so far because of this war. Yes, I don't think there is still a possibility or need for a peaceful settlement between the United States and the Divine Empire. I think it's a very ironic thing that 200,000 lives and peace are put together. ”

Ulysses said in a calm tone, his eyes swept over the reporter's body, but unfortunately the distance was a little far, and he didn't know which media the other party belonged to.

"Mr. President, I would like to ask you what you think about this war, as far as I know, it all stemmed from a terrorist attack not long ago, but unfortunately, we still do not have any evidence that the terrorists belong to the Shenzhou Empire, to be exact, it is almost a one-sided statement of the US government. ”

A reporter stood up and asked sharply.

"We will not wronged any country, I can use everything I can guarantee that the loss of the United States today is most directly related to the Shenzhou Empire. Ladies and gentlemen, the United States has always been a peace-loving country, and in the past few decades, the United States has made countless efforts for global peace. The Shenzhou Empire has developed rapidly in recent years, and they are now the most developed country in Asia, with very strong military, economy, and science and technology, even if they take 10,000 steps back and say, if the United States really wants to start a war, it will not choose such a strong or even outrageous opponent for itself. ”

"I want to reiterate once again that the United States has always been a peace-loving country, but we definitely do not lack the courage to face war, I believe that no matter what opponent we face, the United States will be the final victor, and there will be no suspense in this war!"

Ulysses' bearing became more and more calm.

"According to Mr. President's logic, the United States is the most powerful country in the world today, and under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the Shenzhou Empire to choose the United States as an opponent, isn't it?"

A foreign media reporter belonging to France stood up and raised his voice.

"The Shenzhou Empire is a newly developed country, but in recent years, their development has been very rapid, and their comprehensive strength is not inferior to some old developed countries, in this case, excessive expansion will naturally produce huge ambitions, and they want to replace the status of the United States, although it is a bit absurd, but it is not incomprehensible. Isn't it?"

Ulysses said quietly.

"There are many ways to surpass the United States and replace the United States, and with all due respect, I personally believe that war is the most undesirable way. At the end of this war, no matter whether it is won or lost, the national strength of the Divine Empire and the United States will suffer serious losses. Even both countries may return to the sequence of developing countries, unless one country can completely destroy the other and occupy all the land and resources of the other. But this is clearly impossible. So, I'm sorry, Mr. President, I don't think that the Shenzhou Empire wanted to take the place of the United States and thus unilaterally launched the war, as far as I know, not long before the terrorist attack, there were also some extremely bad incidents in the Shenzhou Empire. These include the explosion of an overpass in Kyushu City, the poisoning of top universities, the looting of arsenals, the robbery of banks, and so on... I wonder what Mr. President thinks of this series of events, and whether these things have anything to do with the United States?"

Foreign media reporters did not stop asking questions and continued to ask.

"As I said, the United States is a peace-loving country, and everything Mr. Reporter said has nothing to do with the U.S. government, and there is no need for the U.S. to do those things, no motive, and no reason. The social contradictions of the Shenzhou Empire in recent years have been very acute, and perhaps it is their internal problems. ”

Ulysses said lightly.

The French reporter hesitated, said thank you, and sat down.

Ulysses casually clicked another reporter.

"Mr. President, I'm Smith from the British New Time and Space Media, and what I'm going to ask next may be a question that all countries in the world are paying attention to today, if the war between the Divine Empire and the United States is not optimistic, will the United States take some extreme measures?"

The reporter stood up and spoke in a cautious voice.

"Extreme measures, such as what?"

Ulysses smiled.

"For example, nuclear weapons. ”

British journalists are becoming more cautious.

The whole scene suddenly fell silent.

Even the reporters who scrambled to raise their hands to ask questions subconsciously withdrew their arms.

Nuclear weapon.

Nuclear warfare!

The United States and the Shenzhou Empire are both countries with nuclear weapons, once a nuclear war starts, for the whole world, it is possible to evolve into a real apocalypse, but in the same way, once a nuclear war is carried out, the two countries will become the target of public criticism, and other countries may join forces to attack the United States and the Shenzhou Empire, and when the time comes, it will be the third world war, and it will also be the last madness of the entire human race.

After madness, the end is inevitable.

This is indeed a matter of great concern to the heads of State and peoples of any country in the world.

Ulysses was silent.

Suddenly, all the people who watched this scene at the scene or outside the venue became nervous.

"The U.S. government does not guarantee that nuclear weapons will not be used. ”

After being silent for a long time, Ulysses said lightly: "But we can guarantee that the United States will not take the lead in using nuclear weapons, and the United States will try its best to resolve all disputes by conventional war." ”

"A wise decision. Thank you. ”

The reporter nodded, and the whole person let out a long breath.

Ulysses smiled and looked at his watch.

It's already 3:40.

"So..."

He opened his mouth and was just about to end the question session, when a reporter stood up without being named, and said in a calm tone: "Sorry, Mr. President, I have one more question. Mr. President, to date, more than 200,000 people have lost their lives in the United States, including soldiers, police, and even more civilians. Do you think that the United States has suffered such heavy losses when the two countries are not directly at war? As the president of the United States, you have not done all the protection work in the face of imminent war, do you think you should shoulder the responsibility that you should shoulder? Do you have anything to say about the whole country and the world today?

Three nos.

It is spicy and spicy, like a knife, sharp and sharp.

Ulysses silently looked at the reporter who asked the question.

The reporter straightened up and stared at Ulysses without flinching.

"Yes. ”

After a long and suffocating silence, Ulysses finally spoke slowly: "I confess that all this is my dereliction of duty, and I hereby apologize to the whole of America and to all my compatriots who have died. ”

He faced the camera, bowed deeply, and then said in a low tone: "I will be responsible for all the losses." ”

He looked at the reporter and said word by word: "I will announce my resignation and resign from the presidency." Of course, at the right time. ”
