This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"Thank you, Mr. Josh. Thank you very much. Mr. Clark, thank you as well. Thank you for your help. Atlas will never forget any of our friends who helped us."

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

A large number of reporters had arrived at the White House one after another. In President Yurisses's office, Earlaen Atlas shook hands with the two leaders of the Skull and Bones Association and thanked them sincerely.

President Yurisses of the United States.

Marshal Earlaen Atlas.

Josh Morgan, head of the Morgan family.

Rockefeller Patriarch Clark Rockefeller.

Four people, four names, four identities, almost represented the pinnacle of American power.

It was a real big talk.

"General, you're too kind. Your presence makes everyone, including us, feel very safe. We believe Atlas is a righteous family and we have a duty to help. All of this is justified."

Josh smiled as he held Earlaen 's hand. His smile looked like that.

The two giants of the Skull and Bones Society had arrived at the White House ten minutes ago. More than ten days ago, the Skull and Bones Society had used its powerful wealth to directly stir up a frenzy of public opinion in the country that Atlas would be the savior of the United States. It had been a great success. Now that it had reached the final moment, it naturally had to personally take care of it.

Many of the media that came today were directly or indirectly controlled by the Skull and Bones Society. The appearance of Josh and Clark could also let those media people understand the attitude of the Skull and Bones Society, so as to ensure that the ceremony was harmonious and perfect, and that there would not be too sharp voices.

As the most direct beneficiary of this series of events, it was only natural for Earlaen to express his gratitude on behalf of the Atlas Family and himself.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Josh, for your trust in Atlas. I can promise that the Atlas family will definitely do their utmost to protect the United States and protect the lives of the American people."

Earlaen nodded and said solemnly.

"Very good, I believe every word of General Earlaen ."

Josh shook Earlaen's hand again. He turned to look at Clark and smiled, "Clark, take General Earlaen to visit our media friends. It will be much more convenient to have a simple communication before the ceremony."

"No problem."

Clark nodded and looked at Earlaen with a smile, "General, please."

'"I've heard of a tacit understanding between the two of you before coming to the United States. Mr. Josh commands the Skull and Bones Society and Mr. Clark's execution is unparalleled. I've been amazed by the cooperation between the two of you many times before. Atlas is willing to cooperate deeply with the Skull and Bones Society if there's a chance."

Earlaen smiled and nodded, his tone sounding a little emotional.

Yurisses , who was drinking coffee silently, had a slight change in expression and did not say anything.

Clark's expression did not change. He simply nodded and said, "Please."

Earlaen smiled and followed Clark out of the president's office side by side.

Inside the office, Josh smiled as he watched the two of them leave, but his eyes were filled with coldness.

"We, the Marshal of the Rice Army, are indeed very scheming. A single sentence is enough to provoke the relationship between the three of us. Isn't that interesting?"

The door to the office closed.

Josh was silent for a moment, then sat down opposite Yurisses and said with a smile.

Yurisses snorted softly, his meaning a little unclear.

Earlaen's words just now, Although it seemed like a compliment, In fact, he quietly raised Josh's position, said Clark was unparalleled in execution, The subtext was the same as saying that Rockefeller was the younger brother of the Morgan Family. Although the Skull and Bones Society was indeed dominated by the Morgan Family, Rockefeller was also one of the giants. Perhaps in Earlaen, if he lowered Rockefeller's status a little, he would be able to plant a thorn between the two giants of the Skull and Bones Society?

Naive.

Josh shook his head slightly with disdain in his eyes.

Without joining the Skull and Bones Society, outsiders would find it hard to understand the operation of the Skull and Bones Society. The two giants within the Skull and Bones Society were Morgan leading Rockefeller in this generation. However, for decades, the two families had been working closely together. There had not even been a major conflict between them.

Morgan and Rockefeller had led the Skull and Bones Society for hundreds of years. There was basically no fight for power between them. To put it bluntly, this kind of seemingly inconceivable thing was that the two families would never compete with each other. Their gazes were always fixed on places outside the Skull and Bones Society.

This world was very big, and their ambitions were also very great. In these past few years, they had constantly expanded outwards, fighting against elite clubs, fighting against the Yan Huang Club, advancing and retreating, making it impossible for them to think of fighting inwardly.

As for leadership?

As long as the Skeleton Society could continue to grow stronger, neither the Morgan Family nor the Rockefeller Family cared much about leadership.

In other words, as the current leader of the Skull and Bones Society, Morgan naturally hoped that his son Victor Morgan would continue to lead the Skull and Bones Society after him. However, if Victor was not worthwhile and the Rockefeller Family would lead the Morgan Family in ten to twenty years, he would not mind too much.

This was the magnanimity and tolerance that a wealthy family that had worked together for hundreds of years should have.

Earlaen was too naive to provoke their relationship with just one sentence.

Josh wasn't worried about Clark's thoughts. The relationship between the two of them was completely unbreakable. He cared about Earlaen 's last words.

Atlas and the Skull and Bones.

One was a wealthy organization that controlled the wealth of the United States, and the other was the military, which could now be said to be the supreme giant.

Such in-depth cooperation, in any country, is enough to make those in power deeply uneasy.

"How much control do you have over Atlas?"

Josh suddenly asked in silence, his expression extremely serious.

If Yurisses could control Atlas, Earlaen would not have said that meaningful sentence.

Josh didn't expect Yurisses to retain 100% control of Atlas, but if he couldn't control it at all, the situation would undoubtedly be serious.

Yurisses shook his head and remained silent.

"Don't tell me you have no control over Atlas. In other words, you have personally introduced a monster full of ambition and power to the United States that you can't control. Worst of all, you have given it a chance to display its ambition."

Josh's eyes became even sharper.

"What can I do?! If I don't let Atlas in, can I just watch as that bastard Lin Xuanyuan keeps killing him? Who can stop him? Are you?! Smash him to death with money?"

Yurisses said angrily.

Josh's expression froze as he raised his eyebrows, "Is this your reason? Yes, they might be able to stop Lin Xuanyuan now, but don't you know how much danger an uncontrollable Atlas will bring to the United States?"

"I didn't expect it to be like this either."

Yurisses had an irritated expression on his face, and there was a trace of undetectable regret on his face.

He really didn't expect it to be like this.

A series of operations were simply too fast.

In the capital idea countries, how terrifying the power of money is, People who haven't experienced it don't understand, The propaganda of the Skull and Bones Society could no longer be described as swift and fierce, Completely one step, In one day, Atlas is the savior of the United States and the whole country is spreading the news that Atlas will become the savior of the United States, Congress reacted fiercely, objectively, hesitantly, on the sidelines, in support of, and so on. Then, Lin Xuanyuan's actions seemed to be completely cooperating with Atlas. Every day, a military base flowed with rivers of blood and mourning filled the wilderness. This miserable scene shocked all the top echelons of the United States and caused them to feel unprecedented pressure.

No one could stop Lin Xuanyuan.

Only Atlas!

Under such circumstances, the leader of the American hawks, the Commander of the Central Department. The chief of the Lecton family, Admiral Roderick Lecton, directly expressed his support for Atlas's entry into the United States.

The hawks had always had a strong influence in the U.S. Military. As soon as Roderick opened his mouth, some of the spectators and hesitants finally began to waver. The voices of support instantly surpassed the voices of opposition. The stunning appointment of a five-star general was approved.

Afterwards, Atlas' two super elite troops entered the United States, which was an army that could surpass the Dark Dawn of the United States in combat strength.

Afterwards, Admiral Roderick Lackton obeyed Atlas and even personally ran for Atlas's position.

It was only at this moment that Yurisses suddenly realized that even though Atlas could block Lin Xuanyuan, no one could block Atlas.

A single Lin Xuanyuan had caused the United States to be overwhelmed with anxiety. Now that Atlas had used up all of its elites, if they wanted to do something at the right time, no one would be able to stop them!

And before that, Yurisses had always believed that he could control Atlas to a certain extent. After all, Atlas was a rising power. They needed the support of the president and cooperation with each other. But now, it was completely different. As long as the ceremony passed, even if Yurisses did not support Atlas, with the support of the hawks, Atlas would be able to quickly gain a foothold in the United States.

This was what Yurisses regretted the most.

But so what?

Termination ceremony?

Declare null and void all previous appointments to Atlas?

Now that the concept of Savior was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, declaring all appointments null and void at this time required more than courage and courage. Once this statement was issued, the people of the United States, who were afraid of it, would immediately explode. The consequences would be unimaginable at that time.

And Atlas had to be consulted to declare the appointment invalid at that time.

Atlas's current strength in the United States was absolutely astonishing. He was an expert who could contend against the Emperor, a Paragon who was slightly weaker than the Emperor but slightly stronger than Lin Xuanyuan, and a World-shaking expert who could contend against Lin Xuanyuan.

Then there were more than a dozen X-class experts, as well as hundreds of super elites with strengths between SS + and SSS.

This force already had the confidence that even if Yurisses withdrew all of his appointments, he would still be able to contend against Yurisses to the end.

There are also hawks.

No one knew what the relationship between the hawks and Atlas was. If Yurisses annulled the hawks, it would be a complete storm, and even a civil war would break out within the United States before the war started.

Things have come to this point, regardless of whether it can be retreated!

Even if Yurisses didn't want to hold the ceremony, he had no other choice.

"Do you have any backup plans? Or other ideas?"

Josh's expression became even more serious.

If Yurisses was really helpless against Atlas, then not only the US government, but even the status of the Skull and Bones Society would be severely challenged.

With Josh's understanding of Yurisses, even if the other party hadn't made such preparations before, he should still have a plan to deal with it now.

Atlas's eyes twitched with anger and helplessness. He lit a cigar and took a deep breath. His muffled voice sounded lifeless amidst the smoke.

"I sent someone to look for Wang Fuyu beside me. I want to talk to the Emperor through him again."

Yurisses clenched his fists tightly and took a deep breath. "But he refused," he said calmly.

Josh raised his eyebrows, unable to hear what Yurisses meant.

"This is the countermeasure I thought of, but it was rejected, so..."

Yurisses smiled bitterly. "I have no other choice now."
