Chapter 209 99: Civil War
Jacob and Jaden's feud is real, just not nearly to the level they make it out to be.
Everyone knows that Jayden is Ricky’s confidant, and arranging for Jayden to be qualified to serve as a pill is an acceptable selfish move. In some people’s minds, the five new extraordinarys can even count him. people.
Jacob, who has always been under Ricky's private training, was quickly included in the investigation of the commander-in-chief who lacked trust through his quarrel with Jayden, Ricky's confidant. The Walton family was included in the list of big family attendees revealed by a third party, which further reduced Jamie's reliability in the minds of the generals.
The commander seemed to have made a choice, but from his perspective, there was actually no better choice.
If the former Carlos was still there, maybe the variables would be bigger.
But it doesn't matter. The worst-case scenario is that he and Lord Wolf join forces and can probably destroy the bunker from other directions. As long as there is a slight gap, he can find a way to get in.
Looking at the corpse of the commander, the masked man's wolf claws gradually returned to his normal hands, and the wolf hairs adhering to them slowly fell off.
Now, the commander was killed by "Werewolf" Jacob and had nothing to do with the masked man.
"Commander, I'm going up." Jacob cut off the commander's head and looked at the opened passage ahead.
"The mission was accomplished well. You go to Maple Country to settle down for a while." The masked man didn't catch up with Jacob for too long, and the plan was still not completed.
Jacob nodded and left the place quickly.
The masked man tidied up the scene, cleared away anything that might have left records, and once again turned into a pool of silver-white fluid, he left the bunker.
The battle outside has become fierce. The agents being approached are no match for these inhuman monsters. It is a one-way massacre. Only Jayden can "survive with difficulty" among several werewolves. .
And Jamie's situation is not optimistic either. He has already taken care of the wolf-headed goose, but those are just appetizers, and Lord Wolf is the main course, feeding Jamie one dish after another.
His ability has a very high upper limit and a very low limit. If it can be coordinated with other extraordinary abilities, it can have the effect of 1+1 greater than 2, but Jayden seems to be deaf and completely ignores his call.
Just when he was about to lose his strength, a figure jumped out of the ruins and threw a round head at the Wolf Lord.
The Wolf Lord saw the face of the head clearly, and the hand that was about to slap it away immediately caught it gently.
"Lord Wolf, you have fulfilled your mission. My mission is completed."
Jacob shouted, then looked at Jamie's incredulous expression, leaving a mocking With a look on his face, he turned around and fled the scene.
"?" Lord Wolf was a little confused.
Is this a secret move by Thornburg? But he didn't feel the presence of wolf blood in Jacob.
Or maybe Thornburg directly persuaded a human being to surrender, but felt that he was not sure about it, so he didn't tell himself?
But no matter what, it seems that his purpose of coming here has been achieved unexpectedly, which is not bad, at least not too many lives will be lost.
“Haaah!”
Jamie burst out and rushed with all his strength, trying to snatch his head back.
The Wolf Lord hesitated for a moment and chose to throw his head away. It was enough to confirm death. There was no need to further insult, which would only arouse the other party's anger.
Seeing this, Jamie immediately changed direction and headed towards his head.
"Ouch——"
The Wolf Lord raised his head and shouted. The werewolves below who had almost completed the task of clearing the area did not want to fight, and turned around to leave. According to the original plan, they would think The solution was to take advantage of the chaos and leave, while the Wolf Lord walked around the city a few more times to attract most of the attention.
But for a moment, there was only a veritable mess left here.
The White Palace, the various meanings given to this building, seemed to have been smashed into pieces like the ruins on site.
Jamie caught the commander's head, and after confirming again and again that this was the person he was familiar with, he turned and walked towards the bunker with a tense face.
What was left for him inside were also corpses similar to the ones above.
Walking to the headless body, he gently put his head back on the body, feeling in a trance and unable to feel anything real.
He had no feelings for the commander-in-chief, but he also knew what it meant when the commander-in-chief was killed.
"Captain, we must call the deputy commander now."
Jaden came to the bunker at some point with a few remaining agents and suggested to Jamie.
The deputy commander is known as the most useless high-ranking official in Ami. His only role is that everyone hopes that he will not be useful.
It’s just now that this fuse needs to come into play.
Jamie was no longer in the mood to care about the battle with him, and quickly informed Director Edgar of the news here.
“Everyone, we are in big trouble.”
This was Edgar’s first sentence after hanging up the phone.
Of course he knew about the attack, but Jacob, the extraordinary person appointed by the commander-in-chief, turned out to be a member of the Wolf Lord, and he also beheaded the commander-in-chief, which made them feel numb.
The house leaked and it rained all night. At this time, the riots in Washington were not over yet.
The Wolf Lord, who was hovering over the city, sensed that there were other werewolves nearby. He flew over and took a look and found that there were about a dozen werewolves causing chaos and fighting against the police.
The giant beast that transformed into a pterosaur swooped down. The police immediately gave up this asymmetric confrontation and fled the scene in panic.
"Why are you here?" Lord Wolf looked at them.
"Lord Wolf! We were sent to the masked man by Master Thornburg, and he asked us to coordinate your actions here." The leading werewolf was as excited as if he had seen an idol.
Is it Thunberg’s plan again?
Lord Wolf looked at the corpses everywhere and felt a little depressed.
"The mission is completed, you guys, find a way to go back."
"Yes!"
Of course they will not disobey the order of the highest level of the wolf bloodline, and scream immediately With a sound, all the werewolves gathered together, bowed to the Wolf Lord, and then turned and fled.
The Wolf Lord glanced around, and the eyes of the people behind the glass everywhere were full of fear.
And just as those people wished, he spread his wings and flew into the sky without wreaking havoc, continuing to attract attention.
On the roof, Augustus watched him go away. This time, he seemed to have taken advantage. There was no threat to the Wolf Lord, so there was no need to take action.
"Here we are, just in time to study and enter the bottleneck. Maybe I should visit more?"
He turned his head and looked at the pentagonal building.
“.I solemnly swear that I will faithfully perform the duties of the President of the United States and do my best to abide by and safeguard it.” Vice President Lyndon was at the Pentagon, presided over by the Supreme Court Justice, and watched by many senior officials. The oath-taking ceremony was hurriedly completed and he officially succeeded as the new commander-in-chief. His first move was to declare a national emergency, set up the Pentagon as a temporary office, and mobilize the National Guard and military for garrison.
A new round of werewolf internal investigation was launched internally, allowing the frontline troops to maintain the status quo and enter a unilateral ceasefire, although in fact the natural kingdom's attacks on them were not even as many as those of the Maple Kingdom's self-organized militia.
He claimed that he was inexperienced and appointed Bush as his candidate for vice president, submitting it to Congress for review.
Generally speaking, it is difficult for a deputy commander-in-chief who is directly appointed by the commander-in-chief to be recognized by Congress, and as a former commander-in-chief, Bush asked him to come back as his deputy, which is simply like a humiliation.
But it was so abnormal that Bush readily accepted it, and Congress passed the decision at an alarming speed, setting a precedent for a former president to serve as vice president.
Everything seems to have been prepared in advance, which is dazzling.
The Wolf Lord did not continue to cause any damage. After circling the city, he left in full view of the public. Lyndon only symbolically arranged for a few fighter jets and helicopters to launch a few missiles. Rather than It's a battle, rather than a farewell.
As a big country, the death of Commander-in-Chief Ami quickly spread throughout the world. Along with it, there was a large amount of various black materials, the most important of which were many hints that the Commander-in-Chief actively provoked a war on the natural kingdom. War, and now they are occupying the territory that already belongs to the Maple Kingdom. To end up like this is to commit suicide.
The commander-in-chief may never have imagined that his reputation would plummet just a few days after his death.
There are a large number of media guiding public opinion, and even such a big thing does not seem so difficult to accept.
Except for Texas, who are already clamoring to bulldoze every monkey in the natural kingdom and steal every banana they have.
Although there are no wolves and monkeys under the command of the Wolf Lord, let alone bananas.
After a few days of calm, the manor where the secret meeting was held now welcomed more guests, including the two chief and deputy commanders.
"Robson, the matter is now here, haven't you seen the situation clearly? The person you bet on is dead, why should we continue to confront each other? Believe me, I will build a new one. It will always belong to Our country, we are its eternal rulers, what do you think of the name Immortal Elders? And you will be one of them. Let’s work together to explore the extraordinary mysteries. Maybe Immortality is not so untouchable.”
This is Bush's last exhortation.
He didn't want to attack Robson, not to mention that they both belonged to the Holy Infant Society in name. The most important thing was that he had an extraordinary son.
And now the situation is gradually becoming clearer. Except for the family of the former commander-in-chief who has disappeared inexplicably, everything else is basically under his control. Even if Robson is still stubborn, then putting him back will not do any harm. Any disturbance to the overall situation.
"Give up, I won't join." Robson shook his head gently.
"Well, in that case, I won't force you, you can go back." Bush opened the door magnanimously and let him leave.
The rice is ready for cooking. Robson, who was under house arrest, regained his freedom, walked out of the room, passed through the hall, and left under the eyes of many mocking eyes.
From today on, they are no longer in the same group, and even Jamie will be gradually squeezed out by them.
But they didn’t know that the person Robson bet on was never the commander-in-chief, but himself.
"Kayden, are you ready?"
"Father, the commander's widow and Texas have seen our evidence and have agreed to join. The masked man has also helped us control California. Lieutenant General Ricky has promised that he will take over control of California as soon as possible, and respect the widow of the commander as the temporary commander to protect our southwest. "
"Where is Jamie? "
"He can't be contacted. Jayden, Lieutenant General Ricky's confidant, said he might have gone to the front line."
". For a change, ask the masked man to come back to Texas to help us, and ask Jayden to go to California to help him. My old boss.”
“I understand”
Robson, who rushed to Texas, looked out the window. It was a suburb with continuous residential houses and a woman walking her dog. , the running man is generally peaceful, but in his eyes, this peace is like the most beautiful moment of a bubble, only one step away from bursting at the edge of the cliff.
The people still don’t know that civil war is just around the corner.
Maybe he was the first domino.
The whole of America will be plunged into chaos.
As a businessman, he is not qualified to do this. After all, he is not an arms or medicine. Taking the initiative to create an unpeaceful environment does not bring much benefit, but has countless disadvantages.
But having experienced the extraordinary, he knew that money was worthless, and only with power could one gain a little glimpse of the extraordinary.
In his opinion, Bush is too ambitious. There are different types of obedience, and he is the most obedient one.
Five days later, Lyndon suddenly fell ill and could no longer hold the important position of commander-in-chief, so he announced his resignation.
As deputy commander-in-chief, Bush was appointed at the critical moment and took over quickly.
In less than half a month, he became three commanders in a row. If there was no age limit for civil servants, babies under one month old could call themselves elders of three dynasties.
People are somewhat aware that something is not quite right, but as long as the media is working, they will soon be attracted to other things.
Unfortunately, this is the time Robson has been waiting for.
The shady story was first exposed in Texas and California, exposing the so-called big families' behind-the-scenes operations and murdering their leaders to everyone's sight. Also exposed were the large number of casualties caused by werewolves in Washington. The tragic image of death is tantamount to telling them directly that the current high-level officials are all national traitors!
In the footage, the topic they were discussing was so chilling. A great leader could have his ending decided so easily.
They betrayed the great commander and let him die under the werewolf, and now they are colluding with the wolf prince for their own interests. If they are allowed to continue like this, I can't believe that this land blessed by God will... Is it the world of humans or the world of werewolves?
Public opinion exploded instantly and could not be concealed at all. Even if the Internet was disconnected, the news was shocking enough for people to spread it word of mouth with their most primitive mouths.
The widow of the commander-in-chief finally stood up. In front of the camera, she cried bitterly and recounted Bush's ten deadly sins. She said that her husband died for the country but ended up in such a disgraced state because of the old immortal Bush. With single-handed control, if he becomes the commander, it will be a disaster for Ami and the regression of human civilization.
Texas responded immediately by expelling the citizenship of other federal states, recognizing the widow of the commander-in-chief as the interim commander-in-chief of the federation, denying Bush and other high-level officials, and resolutely implementing the commander-in-chief's will. The Wolf King must be eliminated. There can only be one intelligent race in this world!
Things began to spiral out of control, but the next day, California announced that it would respond to Texas’ call, believing that they were the orthodox ones, establishing Southwest Mutual Protection with Texas, and would dispatch dispatches as soon as possible. The army can restore peace and order to the world.
It’s just that the troops outside were confused. I was still on the front line. Why did the rear suddenly crack? !
Although most of the military are still in the Federation, unfortunately, people's hearts are still wandering.
The linkage between the first and second dominoes has brought extraordinary influence, causing some states to start to take action. The federation even found that some military bases outside were not able to be commanded. Moved.
Yokohama base.
Ricky in the office is neatly dressed and flipping through the books in his hands.
“Raising troops to Luo, that’s what it means.”
He felt that he had learned a new word, and it was very appropriate.
“Commander, everyone is ready and waiting for your departure speech”
"Well, here we go."
Richie closed the book in his hand and put it on the table. The staff officer looked at it curiously. The cover said the history of Japan's Warring States Period.
