Wallace walked unhurriedly to the gate, and when he opened it, he saw Second Lieutenant Thomas standing outside the courtyard gate with two soldiers.

Wallace strode forward quickly. Second Lieutenant Thomas stood outside the courtyard gate and saluted Wallace, handing over the invitation as he spoke.

"Good morning, Baron Stephen, I have come to invite you to attend the inauguration of the junta at three o'clock this afternoon. ”

The big red invitation looks very simple, and there are only three bronzing words on it - military government.

"Junta?"

Wallace took the invitation with his right hand, then pulled out the invitation inside.

Dear Baron Stephen.

Tamara Eckerstone and Mark Henry cordially invite you to the city hall for the inauguration of the military government.

Wallace nodded slightly, calmly stuffed the invitation letter into the invitation, raised his head to look at Ensign Thomas and smiled slightly, and said, "Ensign Thomas, I will be there on time, by the way, is the mayor of Louis City okay?

Second Lieutenant Thomas hesitated, thinking that his son's teacher Stephen was going to attend the establishment ceremony of the military government, and sooner or later he would have to know, so he might as well tell him now, and he could also sell favors, so he approached Wallace and lowered his voice and said.

"Uh...... Since Your Excellency has asked about me, I will tell you. The mayor's entire family was killed by strange creatures, and to be precise, there were no officials left in the entire city government, and all of them were sacrificed.

I heard that because of the proximity of the police station to St. George's University, and because the leaders of the police department also had children studying at St. George's University, they chose to protect the students of St. George's University, so the leaders of the city government all died.

By the time our army went to the rescue, a third of the policemen had already been killed.

Now the three urban areas of Louis City have become isolated islands, surrounded by sea water, not only can they no longer connect with the capital of the kingdom, but even the surrounding towns and surrounding cities cannot be connected. ”

"Your Excellency, I'm going to send the next one and I'll leave first, we'll see you in the city government building!"

Second Lieutenant Thomas stepped back, smiled at Wallace and waved his hand.

"Uh-huh, thanks, goodbye!"

Wallace waved his hand and watched as Second Lieutenant Thomas walked away with the two soldiers.

He closed the gate of the courtyard again and turned back to the villa.

"Brother, can we go?"

As soon as Wallace walked into the house, Mary and Stephen came up.

Wallace waved the invitation in his hand, shook his head slightly, and said helplessly: "No, Mary, you can't go, this is not a banquet, it's just a ceremony for the establishment of the military government, otherwise I will definitely take you there." ”

"Big brother, what is the military government? Isn't there a city government in Louis City?"

Philip asked, puzzled.

"If you don't learn anything, alas, you usually have to read more books on history, and even the junta doesn't know about it.

A military junta means that all the powers of a country or a period of war are in charge of the army, which means that the power of the original city government is taken over by the army.

In a chaotic situation like Louis City, the officials of the original city government have also been sacrificed, and now the army is the strongest, and Louis City is now an isolated island, so the strongest is the boss.

Moreover, the junta enforces military laws, and under normal circumstances, most of the officials of the junta are military officers.

Of course, many military junta recruit people from academies and police stations and aristocrats as officials, but the leaders of the military hold the supreme power of the junta.

But the Church is higher than the army, and the head of the army can establish a military government only if the church nods and says that a military government can be formed.

I see that this invitation has the name of the cardinal priest Mark of the Church of Light, which means that the establishment of this military government is legal and compliant. ”

"Oh~ Big brother means, you might become an official of the junta?"

Philip nodded as if he didn't understand.

This guy, I've said so much, how could he have thought that I would be an official? The brain circuit is quite peculiar!

Wallace shook his head slightly, and as he turned and walked towards the stairs, he instructed the two of them.

"Don't talk about it, I'm going to prepare, change my clothes and go to the ceremony, the broken nobles are also nobles, your brother is a university teacher, what can you do if you become an official? You stay at home, don't go out and run around, I'll go out to explore the wind first." ”

"Yes~"

Philip and Mary slumped on the couch and nodded reluctantly in response.

After a while, Wallace changed into aristocratic clothes and went downstairs, went to the hall and instructed again: "Don't go out! Study hard at home, and don't open the door to anyone except me." ”

"Got it~"

Mary and Stephen picked up the book listlessly and slumped on the couch in unison.

Alas~ These two goods, don't seek to be motivated!

Wallace was very depressed, this teammate couldn't take it! (╥_╥)

"I'm leaving, study hard at home!"

After Wallace finished speaking, he pushed open the door of the villa, strode out of the villa, and walked to the front yard.

He waved the silver eagle-headed cane in his hand, held his head high, and walked quickly out of the front yard.

Dim street lamps, silent streets.

The crow stood on the branch of the tree on the side of the street, "quacking" and quacking.

There were still a lot of dried blood stains on the street, as if telling of what happened yesterday.

Wallace's left hand held a flashlight that illuminated the path ahead, but it couldn't dispel the darkness in front of him.

The originally bustling and lively street has become dilapidated and dilapidated due to the invasion of strange creatures, and there are only a few scattered people walking on the street, and there were originally many restaurants and supermarkets on the street, but now there is only one supermarket with the lights on, and there are people coming in and out from time to time, indicating that the supermarket is still open for business.

Wallace didn't feel the slightest breath of life everywhere he went to the ruins at this moment.

The city hall was quite far away, and Wallace had walked for almost an hour to get there.

Wallace looked up at the seventeen-story government building in front of him, and sighed in his heart, only his own strength is king, otherwise he will not be able to enter the building!

"Hi ~ Baron Stephen!"

Wallace followed the voice and turned his head to see that it was Alexander Lasich, the president of St. George's University, known as the Lion.

"Headmaster, I'm glad to see you, and with the blessing of the Lord of Light, you and I have survived. ”

"Yes, I'm very happy to see you, many teachers at St. George's University have died in this catastrophe, and it's not easy for you and me to survive. ”

After Alexander Rasich finished speaking, he also sighed slightly.

"yes, yes. ”

Wallace nodded, and was also very emotional, thinking that in this world, ordinary people's lives are like mustard.
