This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"Lin Xuanyuan disappeared from the ancient city."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Joseph came to Yurisses's office again. He looked at the gloomy-looking Mr. President sitting on the chair and said in a somewhat gloomy tone.

Gloomy...

It was as if this had become the only expression on Yurisses's face since the terrorist attacks.

Before this, they would never have imagined that a single person could cause such a huge loss to the entire United States.

One person, with a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, fought against a country!

But also against a superpower.

Before this, if Joseph heard this, he would definitely treat it as a joke.

But now he couldn't laugh anymore.

San Francisco encirclement, Los Angeles bombings, Gotham bloodbath, and now the Ancient City bloodbath...

In just a few days, The losses in the United States were unimaginable, Yurisses was under unprecedented pressure, The pressure comes from the media, The people, as well as Congress, and even the two terms of the military and government, Joseph was certain that if the situation wasn't too subtle and some of the powerful contenders didn't want to face the Divine Boat Empire directly, and chose to let Yurisses take the blame, the person sitting in the president's office would definitely not be Yurisses .

It was no exaggeration to say that these pressures and unforeseen events were all brought about by the royal family.

In other words, the two kings of the royal family had brought them here.

Two World-shaking Sovereigns.

Secret Service, Secret Service, every country in the world had their own Secret Service system. The original intention of establishing the Secret Service System was completely the same. It was to gather a small portion of the most powerful people in the country and use them to cause a huge amount of destructive power that far exceeded their numbers at a critical moment.

To put it simply, it was to use a small number of people to exert the most destructive power.

Only the royal family could use this to the extreme.

A single Lin Xuanyuan, carrying a hundred elites, had unleashed a destructive power that exceeded his own by tens of thousands of times in just a few days.

In just a few days, the entire world had truly witnessed the horrors of World-shaking Sovereigns. It had also made all countries realize the value of secret service systems. In fact, in the past few days, the status of secret service systems in some countries had risen steeply, and there was a faint momentum that surpassed the military.

Joseph has begun to think of a problem.

In other words, after the bloodbath in the ancient city, he finally made up his mind.

That's the deal from Atlas.

As Yurisses ' good friend and right-hand man for many years, Joseph and Yurisses were close and trusted by the President. The terms of the deal Atlas had proposed had not been announced yet, and Yurisses ' first target was Joseph.

Five-star general!

That's Atlas's deal.

The rank of five-star general is unique to the United States, formally established in the middle of the last century, approved by Congress, Under normal circumstances, the basic requirement for promotion to five-star general was to have served as an Allied Theater Commander. The winners of this honor were all related to World War II. Marshall, who had served as the commander of the European Theater, MacArthur, and Bradley, who had served as the commander of the Mediterranean Theater.

If Yurisses wanted to confer the rank of five-star general on Atlas, the opponents would probably use it as the best excuse to oppose him.

However, World War II had already passed for so many years, and it was not impossible to force Atlas's Patriarch to be brought up.

Congress made it clear that the rank of five-star general was conferred only in wartime and would not be retired for life.

Awarded in wartime.

Considering the current situation facing the United States, the entire United States probably did not believe that this was a peaceful era. This was a condition that the United States had.

The only thing worrying was what would happen after the deal with Atlas.

Since the death of the last five-star general in the 1980s, not a single five-star general has been among the generals of the United States.

Marshal Rice.

This position could be said to be the supreme leader of the military, and he was in direct control of military power.

Whether this sensitive matter was successful or not, it would bring about a huge impact on the United States. If it could succeed, it could even directly change the power structure of the United States.

Atlas's deal seemed to have calculated that the United States did not have much choice now, so it was almost threatening to put forward this deal with ambition.

However, judging from the current situation, the United States seemed to have lost more and more room for manoeuvre.

A Lin Xuanyuan had already tormented the United States. The fact that there were no super experts in the United States was clearly exposed. At this time, the United States really needed Atlas' experts to help stabilize the situation.

And...

Behind Lin Xuanyuan was an emperor who was acknowledged to be invincible under the heavens!

So what if the United States barely suppressed Lin Xuanyuan?

Once the emperor went to the United States, everything would only end worse.

Thinking of that scene, Joseph's entire body subconsciously trembled.

He took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at Yurisses .

Yurisses ' eyes narrowed, and a thoughtful light flashed in them.

"Sorry."

Joseph smiled apologetically. Fortunately, the relationship between the two of them prevented Yurisses from getting angry at his occasional distraction.

Yurisses shook his head and said indifferently, "When was the last time I saw Lin Xuanyuan?"

He had already asked this question a moment ago, But Joseph did not hear it. Yurisses had long since noticed that this was not the first time Joseph had been absent-minded. Recently, his old friend's mind had become more and more dazed. Yurisses could see him, but he could not say anything. The situation was getting more and more chaotic, and everyone's hearts were in a mess.

"Last time..."

Joseph pondered for a moment and smiled bitterly, "Where is the last time? If there really is, it should be the time for Jato to fight with Lin Xuanyuan. Since then, everyone who saw Lin Xuanyuan, be it the City Hall bloodbath or the Demonic Sword Armor Master explosion, has died."

Yurisses ' lips twitched and he didn't say anything.

This news was no less shocking than the bloodbath in the ancient city that Lin Xuanyuan had personally created today.

They came and went without a trace.

Anyone who faced such a superhuman-like figure would have a splitting headache.

"Where's Cato?"

Yurisses asked.

"He should be on his way back now. Gaztu seems to be in a very bad mood."

Joseph whispered.

Yurisses snorted coldly. It wasn't just Cato. The president's mood was also very bad. The explosion of the Demonic Sword Armor Division and the death of Davis meant that he had lost his voice in the military hawks and his situation had become more and more passive.

"Cato... Cato..."

Yurisses narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"Mr. President, perhaps we should seriously consider Atlas's condition."

Joseph said tentatively. Atlas's condition was naturally not acceptable, but now they had no other choice.

The smell of gunpowder between them and the Divine Boat Empire grew stronger and stronger. No one could guarantee when the two countries would start a war. In fact, the next second or minute, there would be a war. In this situation, stabilizing their own backyard was the most important thing.

If the war with the Divine Boat Empire hadn't even begun, Lin Xuanyuan would have already tossed the entire country into a mess. This would undoubtedly affect the morale of the army. It could even be said that they would lose before the battle.

Gotham, Old Town, Los Angeles, San Francisco...

The four major cities in the United States were now miserable and miserable. If Lin Xuanyuan was not stopped, the mentality and faith of the entire army would probably collapse along with Lin Xuanyuan's slaughter.

"Five-star Admiral..."

Yurisses said indifferently, "Do you think the pressure Lin Xuanyuan is putting on them will make them recognize the next five-star general?"

They...

Joseph naturally knew who they were referring to.

They were referring to the stubborn members of Congress, as well as other factions in the United States.

A five-star general, the Marshal of the U.S. Army, was someone who could influence the overall situation. Moreover, it affected the most sensitive military power. At this time, Yurisses had to appoint a person who had never appeared in the U.S. As a five-star general. The resistance he encountered was definitely not small.

Even though Lin Xuanyuan had wreaked havoc in the United States, he still hadn't completely destroyed the confidence of those people. Yurisses would still find it extremely difficult to pass this appointment.

"But we have to make preparations, don't we? There are some things that need to be done step by step."

Joseph said. This sentence had basically revealed his inclination.

Under such circumstances, he supported the deal with Atlas and Yurisses's promotion of Atlas's Patriarch to a five-star general of the US army.

"We don't have much time right now."

Yurisses took a deep breath and mocked himself, "Step by step, it's too late."

"Is there no other way?"

Joseph frowned and said, "After all, the Emperor hasn't made a move yet. If..."

He didn't continue, but his meaning was already clear. Lin Xuanyuan was now practically unstoppable in the United States. If they refused to cooperate with Atlas, then if the Emperor went to the United States, there would be no way to stop that scene!

"There's always a way."

Without waiting for Yurisses to speak, Joseph said to himself, "And I personally believe that we should deepen our cooperation with Atlas, agree to their request, and cooperate more deeply in a private capacity."

His voice was very slow. As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Yurisses, which was somewhat meaningful.

Yurisses's expression changed slightly. He instantly understood the meaning behind Joseph's words and said calmly, "What do you mean?"

"Literally."

Joseph smiled, lowered his eyelids, and said indifferently, "The United States cannot live without you, whether before or after the war."

Yurisses didn't say anything.

After a long silence, he looked out of the window and muttered to himself, "Looks like it's time to talk to the Patriarch."
