Chapter 152: Lobbying (I)

The monsters that had descended on Nandu and Shangjing had all been wiped out, and the battle in Los Angeles was still fierce, with artillery fire and flares thrown out as if they didn't need money, making the darkness as bright as day.

The high-level mutant coalition led by Wen Yan finally failed to capture the demon dragon in the sky, in order to solve this headache big guy, the US Federal Air Force and the mutant coalition paid a heavy price, when the corpse of the demon dragon fell into the sea, the 82nd Airborne Division, which was closest to Los Angeles, took the lead in rushing to the Los Angeles battlefield to reinforce the National Guard and Coast Guard, and then reinforcements from the infantry division and the Marine Corps arrived one after another, bringing a head-to-head blow to the demon tide monster.

In order to buy time for these reinforcements, the mutants roamed the city of Los Angeles, fearlessly attacking all kinds of monsters, protecting citizens, and covering the U.S. federal military and police forces.

Inadvertently, the soldiers of the 82nd Airborne Division and the Marine Corps would point their guns and muzzles at the mutants from time to time, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, whether they had the idea of killing them or issued a silent threat to warn them not to act rashly.

In the command office of the commander of the Navy's Third Fleet, the blonde, blue-eyed Lieutenant White sat comfortably in an ergonomic chair, and across from him was the commander, Admiral Angelell.

Holding on to the handrail twice, Lieutenant White looked at General Angelil and asked with a smile, "General, do you think your Excellency the President will give a stupid order to cut off the bridge of friendship between humanity and the Holy Race?" ”

Compared to a few hours ago, Angelil now looked more like an old man on the verge of death than a majestic naval fleet commander, the wrinkles on his face had become much deeper, and the powerful aura on his body had dissipated without a trace. The only thing that remained constant was the cloudy eyes, which were as sharp as a falcon, piercing Lieutenant White's body like a bayonet.

Looking at this terrible monster who is called "white" and adds a negative connotation to the word "white", Angelil decides to overcome his fear and have a real conversation with him.

The old general said slowly: "Mr. Bai, or Lieutenant White, you should know very well that there is no possibility of harmonious coexistence between humans and mutants, if there is a species on the earth that will let the humans of the earth unite unconditionally to destroy it, it must be mutants!" ”

"That being said, have you ever actually seen a time when the humans of Earth were united?" Lieutenant White shook his head with a grin, the confident smile on his face that made Angelil want to pull out his gun and shatter his face.

"Without nuclear weapons, World War III would most likely have begun, or even ended." Lieutenant White glanced at the general's rifle hanging from his waist and continued, "All of humanity united? It was just a beautiful and illusory dream that could never become a reality. However, the friendship between mankind and the Holy Race may continue to be maintained. ”

Angelil snorted coldly and ignored it.

Lieutenant White continued: "As long as the T-virus serum can be fully popularized and the number of Holy Races can be strictly controlled to achieve a perfect balance, there will be room for harmony between humanity and the Holy Race, and the Holy Race has released its good intentions, and then, it depends on how the will of this free nation is chosen, but I believe that a wise person like President William will not make a short-sighted move." I think he will seek cooperation with us. ”

Angelil missed the taste of cigars so much that the doctor had sentenced him to death two years earlier for his half-century career as a smoker, but now he would rather live a few years less and smoke a good cigar to calm his mind.

Like a mind-reading magician, Lieutenant White took out a cut handmade cigar from his military pocket, handed it to Angelil, and said with a smile: "Enjoy Cuban cigars." ”

Angelil looked cautiously at Lieutenant White, and always felt that the smile was full of sarcasm, and I don't know whether it was a sarcasm of "Cuba" or "cigar". The old general put his hands under the table, his fingers crossed, balancing each other's movements, and suppressed the desire to reach out and take the cigar.

Perhaps this is a machiam of the mutants, Angelil thought to himself, there may be a new type of drug in this cigar, or it is poisonous on the filter, maybe it is the T-virus that can infect and transform itself into a zombie mutant.

"Don't worry, General, there's nothing wrong with this cigar, and besides, I don't know how to read minds, it's just that your current state is very unstable, and it's not hard to guess what you think." Lieutenant White leaned down on the table, shoved the cigar in his hand into the gap between General Angelil's fingers, and continued, "If I wanted to do anything to you, I would have taken action a long time ago, you should know that the convoy outside can't stop me, just like the army of the American Federation can't stop the revenge of the Holy Family...... Why are you looking at me like that? There is an old Chinese saying that is also widely spread in the American Federation, isn't it? Never put all my eggs in one basket, you don't think I'm stupid enough to put all my eggs in one basket, do you? ”

White laughed exaggeratedly as if he had heard a funny joke, shook his head, and said: "Of course this is impossible, in fact there are still some Holy Families hiding in places that you can't see, if President William makes an unwise and unfriendly decision, then they will immediately retaliate, believe me, compared to the terrorist attacks caused by the Holy Clan, the horror of the Middle East is just a child playing role-playing." ”

This is something that has been thought of for a long time, but after hearing it with his own ears, Angelil still couldn't help but sigh, he knew that the president would definitely not give an order to attack the mutants, the battle of Los Angeles was enough to greatly damage the vitality of the national economy, the United States Federation could not withstand the retaliation of the mutants, for those mutants who can fly, swim and escape, the territory of the American Federation is like their back garden, they can come and go when they want, and what is more tricky is that when the mutants make terrorist attacks, they don't need to be like horrorThey are the best weapons in their own right, not only causing a large number of casualties, but also hijacking various means of transportation, including airplanes, and even spreading the T virus on a large scale and infecting the population.

Before the T virus serum spread to every corner of the national border, the U.S. federal did not have the capital to turn against the mutants.

Therefore, even to protect his own citizens from harm, William Harrison would never order the U.S. federal army to turn their guns and eliminate the mutants in Los Angeles.
