Chapter 258: Threat

After exchanging the 'Tooth of Destruction' and 'Fragments of the Divine Book', there are only 8 Multi-Crystals left in Azu's Crystal, and there are still 90 Mastery Essences.

Not wanting to buy anything more for the time being, Azu closed the shop.

He remembered that he still had three 'Awakening Stones', so he planned to break through the bottleneck of the 'Biological Force Field'.

But then, his phone rang.

In the past month, Azu's mobile phone has not rang.

Now it suddenly sounded, and it gave him an unusual feeling.

Answer.

As soon as it was connected, the voice of the assistant Ashley rang out in the earpiece.

"Thank goodness sir, thank you for answering my call."

Azu slowly rose into the air and slowly flew towards Hawaii Continent, while asking, "What's wrong?" ”

"Something's wrong, sir, there's something wrong!"

Ashley said nervously, "You have a video that has been put online, that video, that video."

Azu frowned: "What's wrong with that video?" ”

"That's a video of you on a mission abroad, and I don't know who filmed it," Ashley said. ”

"In short, you killed a civilian by mistake when you killed the militants."

"Now that this video has been posted online, some people accuse you of killing innocent people."

Azu was stunned, and then remembered that in the original plot, there was indeed such a paragraph.

In the TV series, when the motherland was on an overseas mission, he shot an armed man with a 'laser eye' and accidentally killed a civilian in the back.

When the video was posted online, the people of the country were upset and rushed to the rally to force an explanation.

At the time of opposition, the motherland was still in their heads, imagining killing the opponents on the spot.

Of course, for the giant baby who wants to be recognized, the approval rating is too important to him.

In the end, he did not dare to carry out brutal repression.

Later, he relied on the storm to settle the turmoil for him.

Unexpectedly.

Now this storm has fallen on his head.

But.

Azu smiled: "Is that all?" ”

Ashley was stunned for a moment when asked by Azu on the other end of the phone, and then said cautiously: "Sir, this video has already caused your support rating to start dropping. ”

"I just had a meeting with the PR department, and we agreed that we needed to hold a press conference."

"It would be better if you could attend."

Azu began to fall to the rooftop of the hotel: "Ashley, you can handle this little thing, if you want me to come forward, what else do I want you to do?" ”

"But sir."

In the Tower of Seven, Ashley's voice ended, and the phone had been hung up.

The assistant looked depressed, she grabbed her hair and said, "I knew it would be like this, I knew it would be like this." ”

"He doesn't care about any of that."

"Damn it!"

She left in a hurry and headed straight for the PR department.

On the rooftop of the hotel, Azu had just hung up Ashley's phone when another call came in.

This time it's Maeve.

Azu answered and said first: "Let me guess, is it about the video on the Internet?" ”

Maeve smiled over there, "Looks like Ashley has contacted you." ”

Azu glanced at a beautiful woman in a bikini who was basking in the sun on the rooftop pool and said, "That's right, she just contacted me." ”

"This kind of trivial matter, Ashley can handle it, you don't have to worry."

Maeve said, "I'm not worried, but just now, the secretary of the Secretary of the Secretary of Defense's Office just informed me. ”

"Mr. Minister thinks that this video has a bad impact, and he hopes that you can solve it within 24 hours."

"Otherwise, he thinks you'll have to revoke your rank of colonel, and our entire department of supervision."

"He worries that if he doesn't, people will criticize the Ministry of Defense."

After hearing this, Azu laughed: "I know." ”

"I'll go back now."

"We'll see you later."

New York, in the Department of Defense building.

In the office of the Department of Transhuman Regulation, Maeve hung up.

She put down her phone, a little worried in her eyes.

The video appeared too suddenly, went viral, and someone was secretly guiding public opinion.

Now, under the Tower of Seven, there are already people protesting, demanding an explanation from the Motherland.

And the number of protesters is rising rapidly.

Maeve smelled a sense of conspiracy in it.

Also in this building, in the Office of the Minister of Defense.

Wilson was answering a phone call.

"Yes, sir."

"I'm in charge of it."

"Yes, if we can take advantage of this wave of public opinion, we can force the motherland to withdraw from the Ministry of Defense on its own initiative."

"I understand that I will try to avoid confrontation with him head-on."

"Well, okay, don't worry, I won't miss this opportunity."

"Goodbye."

Put down your phone.

Wilson had no expression on his face, and he made another call.

"Bring the 'Patriots' here just in case."

The other end of the phone agreed.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door, and an officer walked in with a boy of eight or nine years old.

Ryan, the son of the Motherland.

After a period of training, the boy grew a lot taller.

He looked at Wilson.

Wilson said, "Are you ready? ”

"Chances are, you'll face him next."

Ryan clenched his little hand: "Will he come?" ”

"From what I know about him, he will."

Wilson said in a deep voice, "But I'm sure I won't have a conflict with him." ”

"I called you here just to see him with your own eyes."

Ryan nodded.

Wilson winked at the officer, and the officer led Ryan into a room at the back of the office.

Just a moment later, a dull sound of breaking the air sounded outside the Ministry of Defense building, and then the light in the minister's office suddenly dimmed.

Wilson looked out the window and saw a figure blocking the sunlight.

The bright red cloak fluttered in the sun, and the black suit reflected the metallic sheen.

Blonde, blue eyes.

Smiling.

Motherland!

Without knocking on the window, Azu's figure blurred, passing through the window like a ghost, and only then did he regain his texture when he came to the office.

Keep your feet on the ground.

A smile rolled into the corner of Azu's mouth, and he looked at Wilson and said, "Good morning, Mr. Minister." ”

Wilson forced himself not to look at the room where Ryan was, and smiled, "Good morning, Motherlander. ”

Azu smiled and walked over with his hands in his hands, as if greeting an old friend.

"Do me a favor."

"Put the video thing right."

"Otherwise, our country will probably have to change to a more capable defense minister."

"Do you say, Mr. Wilson?"

Wilson's face changed, he didn't expect that as soon as Azu came, he would directly threaten him.

There is no cover-up.

Simple! Brusque!
