In the evening.
Before the Nine Continents City turned into chaos, the leaders of the empire's several branches of power had already appeared in the ministerial meeting room of the Empire's Defense Ministry building.
Top experts from foreign secret service systems invaded.
This was something that the Divine Continent Empire had never experienced before, and it rarely happened in the Dark World.
In fact, the super-elites of the Secret Service rarely fought within their own country.
Whether it was the X class that represented the highest combat strength in the Dark World, or the few World-shaking Martial Dao Sovereigns, they could all be regarded as national treasures.
What is a national treasure?
That is, when necessary, it must be protected, at the very least, it will not be used casually.
Any Earthquake Realm expert was the pillar of a country's secret service system. There were no Earthquake Realm experts guarding the country, and the X Realm supported the flag of the secret service system.
If there were no special circumstances for such a person, no head of state would send them to invade another country.
This is not the practice of using the weapons of States, but the practice of using bombs.
The real top experts of a country were usually stationed in their own country, using countless resources to establish their invincible might, guarding the country's gates, and intimidating everyone.
Even if they occasionally went on missions, they were carefully prepared. The accompanying personnel, as well as the escort personnel at the mission site, the retreat route, and the alternatives after failing the mission, would all be prepared to ensure that nothing went wrong.
Even so, the appointees would try their best to keep a low profile and would not do anything else. They would return to their country as soon as they completed their mission.
Hence, the actions of Hong Pao and the others did not conform to the rules.
Dozens of elites and three World-shaking experts were hiding in the Divine Boat Empire. The secret chess pieces that the United States had nurtured in the Empire had never been used from the beginning to the end. They allowed Red Robes to retaliate, destroy, and flee within the Empire, playing the role of a stray dog that could bite at any time.
This situation was simply absurd.
This was still the Divine Continent Empire . Perhaps at the beginning, Hong Pao and the others would have the upper hand. However, as time went on, the Divine Continent Empire used more and more resources. They would definitely be able to trap Hong Pao and the others to death here.
However, even under such circumstances, the United States did not use any resources to rescue Red Robes, nor did it activate the ambush in the empire. US President Yurisses only made a few phone calls with the Empire's Supreme Head, Lin Qingtian, in exchange for the freedom of Red Robes and the others.
What did this mean?
This could almost clearly indicate that Red Robes and Yurisses were not in the same mind for the time being.
Yurisses was interested in the value of the red robe, so he was willing to pay a portion of his benefits in exchange for his freedom, but he was unwilling to use some hidden chess to help Red Robe and the others escape.
Those weiqi pieces that were placed in the empire by the United States were the true people of the empire.
The US side was unwilling to risk their lives to help this outsider, Hong Pao. They were only willing to pay some visible benefits. This clearly illustrated the gap between Yurisses and Hong Pao.
The three World-shaking experts were deeply trapped in the Divine Boat Empire, but the United States was only willing to pay for it and did not want to bleed.
Every country in the world has done something similar, and even more ruthlessly, sometimes some countries are unwilling to pay and directly give up on their own soldiers who are wandering outside.
The United States had done such a thing, the Divine Boat Empire had done it, and every major secret service country had made similar decisions when they were helpless.
It could even be said that this was a common practice in the Dark World.
Therefore, no country's secret service warriors would have a clear nationality. Once they left the country and failed to carry out their mission, their country would immediately refuse to admit their relationship with the captured warriors.
However, no matter what, such a move should not be carried by the three World-shaking Realm experts.
It was more like hugging three SS level elites.
This was also the norm in the Dark World.
Under normal circumstances, Similar to missions to the interior of hostile countries, There would be some elites to execute this mission. SS-class elites were the absolute main force in executing this mission. Even if SSS +-class experts led the team, even if they were truly high-level, X-class and above experts, as well as the Empire's true super elite troops, unless they had to face a mission similar to a beheading mission, they would not directly go deep into the hinterland of the enemy countries.
The meaning of their existence is to wander the borders of various countries or to contain the forces of hostile countries within the framework of neutral countries.
The experts of the secret service system were definitely valuable. The higher their strength, the greater their deterrent effect would be, and the chances of them taking action would be reduced.
Many sensitive missions were restricted by experts and super elites. The ones who really carried out the missions were usually the ordinary elites with the highest mortality rates.
After all, although using experts to perform missions was sharp, once they failed, the cost would be too high.
If the current guardian of the Divine Continent Empire was captured by an enemy country, even if there was nothing on him that could prove that he was the leader of the Divine Continent Empire 's secret service, the enemy country would detain him to negotiate with the Divine Continent Empire .
Divine Continent Empire could not give up on Wang Tianxiong unless it had no other choice.
This was because apart from Wang Tianxiong's strength, what was more important was his identity and status in the empire's secret service system.
After decades of accumulating prestige, Wang Tianxiong was definitely a man standing on the altar of the empire's secret service.
If the Divine Continent Empire didn't provide him with help, it would have a major impact on the entire secret service system of the Empire. The soldiers were cold and their morale was low. These losses were invisible, but they would definitely have a major impact.
The reason why the United States sent Red-cloak and the others to the Divine Boat Empire and did not provide support during their escape was that apart from Yurisses and Red-cloak's different intentions, more importantly, Red-cloak had not established enough prestige in the United States secret service system.
For America as a whole, red robes are outsiders.
The other two World-shaking experts were even more so.
And it was precisely because of this that the higher-ups of the Divine Continent Empire became even more solemn. That was why today's meeting was held.
After all, the three World-shaking experts were completely incomparable to the three SS-class elites. No matter how unreasonable this matter was, the United States still made it. Facing the invasion of the enemy, the empire had no chance of compromising at all.
Only encirclement and suppression!
The news that the three World-shaking experts and a few subordinates had hijacked the arsenal without any movement from the United States made everyone's spirits tense up.
This was simply going to be a desperate attempt to jump over a wall.
Since there was no way to retreat, how to solve this matter had become a problem in front of the big shots.
The main topic of the meeting was how to deal with the threat posed to the empire by Hong Pao and the others.
The meeting was personally presided over by Imperial Prime Minister Yang Xiuyuan. Chen Fengnan, Minister of Military Affairs; Liu Changzhi, First Deputy Minister of Military Affairs and Imperial Defense; Guo Zhinu, Minister of Justice; Liang Zhengwu, Executive Deputy Minister of Justice; Yan Mingkai, Commander of the Imperial Capital Military Region; Wang Tianxiong, Protector of the Divine Continent; and Qi Mingxuan were all present. The specifications were extremely high.
The lights in the meeting room were on very brightly. The meeting that had been going on for two hours did not show any signs of stopping. The bright light shone on the faces of the members of the meeting room. It could be seen that everyone's faces carried a faint greasy glow.
Everyone's expressions were exceptionally solemn as they frowned. The atmosphere was exceptionally oppressive.
"I still insist on my opinion."
Wang Tianxiong, who was closest to Imperial Prime Minister Yang Xiuyuan, picked up the teacup in front of him and drank a large mouthful of water. He took out a cigarette from the cigarette case in front of him, Taking a deep breath, "No matter what, we can't let Hong Pao and the others off this time. Furthermore, we have to deal with them as soon as possible. My only opinion is to take down Hong Pao at all costs in the shortest time possible. At that time, we will have enough initiative to kill them or negotiate with the United States. We absolutely cannot drag this matter out like this," he said in a deep voice.
"World-shaking experts, Three World-shaking experts, Everyone, if they jump over the wall, no one can imagine how much damage they can do to Nine Continents City. They can hijack the arsenal of the Shadow Thorn Special Forces today, and maybe sneak into the military base of Nine Continents City tomorrow. They will exist for a day, and we all can't sleep well, so we must take measures! "
The meeting room was silent.
The few bigwigs smoked silently and frowned as they thought about their countermeasures.
Although the three factions belonged to the empire and their positions were different, at this moment, no one would play any tricks on the foreign enemies and deal with the situation in front of them in a united manner. This was the most important thing.
Therefore, although Wang Tianxiong's opinion was opposed, this time, the dispute that lasted for more than two hours was definitely not opposed for the sake of opposition.
"President Wang, I understand what you mean, I'm not in the Secret Service, but the reliance on secret service systems has increased worldwide in recent years, "President Wang is in charge of the empire. In recent years, few people have intruded. The super experts of the secret service can indeed cause great damage. This is a very unstable factor. However, I think your method is a bit too extreme. If you don't do it well, it will cause social panic. This is very disadvantageous to us."
On the opposite side of Wang Tianxiong, Liu Changzhi, the First Deputy Minister of the Imperial Army and Minister of Defense, held a cigarette and said worriedly.
"Disadvantageous? Disadvantageous is better than losing!"
Wang Tianxiong looked at the core general of the southwest faction. "If Red-robed and the others jump over the wall and we don't take measures in time, perhaps everything Lin Xiaocao did in the United States will be staged in Nine Continents City. In the end, we still have to go to the point that I have proposed. If we take measures now, we can at least solve all the hidden dangers as soon as possible," said Lin Xiaocao coldly.
He looked at Liu Chang and turned his head to face Yang Xiuyuan. He said sincerely, "Prime Minister, make your decision. It will be too late. I insist on my opinion. From now on, within 48 hours, Nine Continents City will be temporarily closed!" You're not allowed in, you're not allowed out, The whole city is under siege, Through Imperial Television, The major news media, Websites publish notifications, The major state-owned enterprises in Nine Continents City, Private enterprises, Schools, Mall, two days off, demanding that people not leave their homes as far as possible, Empty the city as much as you can within twelve hours, "Nine Continents City has entered a level 1 combat readiness. All the police forces of the Ministry of Justice and the Nine Continents City Military Region are mobilized. All of the Empire's special agents in Nine Continents City will participate in the search. They will mobilize military satellites, armored vehicles and helicopters to patrol Nine Continents City in all directions. Once they lock onto the tracks of Red Robes and the others, they will be captured!"
Extreme, Iron Blood, Crazy!
This is the real use of national resources at all costs.
Once all the resources of the empire were mobilized, no one or organization could contend against them.
The meeting room fell silent again.
Everyone couldn't help but straighten up, their eyes cold.
Although this was not the first time Wang Tianxiong had said these words in this meeting, every time this President Wang spoke, people's hearts involuntarily trembled.
"Comrade Tianxiong, we can indeed do everything you said, but we can do it. Whether we can do it or not is a different matter. Once we do this, have you thought of any consequences?"
This time, Imperial Prime Minister Yang Xiu was no longer silent. Instead, he bitterly smiled and asked.
"There are no consequences!"
Wang Tianxiong shook his head. "It will only cause people to feel uneasy, Compared to what we're about to lose, This is nothing. As long as we can give an appropriate explanation afterwards, some of the effects will not last for too long. As for how to explain it, it is the matter of the Ministry of Rites. It is fine to say that we are conducting a city-wide anti-terrorism drill. It is fine to say that we are going to completely rectify the security of the capital on the eve of the plenary session. No matter what, there is still a reason to explain. I have always felt that there is nothing that cannot be done to prevent the empire from suffering heavy losses. "
Yang Xiuyuan's body moved, but before he could say anything, a loud report suddenly sounded.
Yang Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Please come in."
In the next moment, the door of the meeting room was pushed open and a middle-aged man walked in with an extremely ugly expression.
"Jin Cheng, what's wrong?"
Yang Xiuyuan's heart sank slightly. He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked in a serious tone.
Hu Jincheng.
The deputy director of the Cabinet Office was also the person in charge of Yang Ban. Although he had died in the Cabinet Office, he mainly served Yang Xiuyuan. He was Yang Xiuyuan's intimate secretary.
Now that Yang Xiuyuan saw his usually calm secretary's expression, his first reaction was that something big must have happened.
"Prime Minister, a large-scale explosion suddenly occurred at the Central Interchange. The collapse area is more than 50 metres. The current situation is rather chaotic. At least 1,000 people have suffered accidents."
"Also, Huaqing University's cafeteria number two has been poisoned, and hundreds of students have been poisoned. They have been sent to the hospital."
"Another ICBC bank was robbed. The robbers did not take any money, but they burned the bank's vault, including more than 50 million in cash and mortgage certificates worth more than 300 million yuan."
"In addition, a military prison in the capital has been attacked. There have been heavy casualties among prison guards and a large number of prisoners have escaped. It is impossible to count the current number of prisoners."
Hu Jincheng's words were very fast. He said a series of bad news. As everyone's expressions changed, he wiped the sweat off his forehead and continued to say with difficulty, "Also, the Glorious Divine Ark was attacked by Adolf, the most wanted criminal of the empire."
"What?!"
This time, Wang Tianxiong, Liu Changzhi, and the other giants belonging to both the royal and southwestern factions stood up.
At the same time, Guo Zhinu 's phone rang.
Guo Zhinu picked up the phone with an ugly expression and said, "Jianghu? This is Guo Zhinu . Are you with Xuanyuan?"
"Alright, alright, I'll arrange it immediately."
He quickly hung up the phone and scanned the area for a week. He calmly said, "Wang Jianghu's call. Xuanyuan is currently at the interchange in Central. I will immediately organize a rescue operation."
Wang Tianxiong narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Liu Changzhi, then looked at Yang Xiuyuan, and calmly said, "What should I say?"
Yang Xiuyuan took a deep breath and clenched his fists tightly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Seal the city! Go to the Brilliant Divine Ark!"
At this moment, this evening.
The countless gazes of the empire were all focused on the Glorious Divine Ark.
