Chapter 678 Conspiracy And Lies

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

In the heavy rain, an ordinary black Buick left St Mary's Hospital. After brushing past numerous military trucks along the way, the car finally arrived at a high-end villa area not far from the Capitol.

At the entrance of the villa area, The security guards had originally planned to check and register Buick in accordance with the rules, However, just as they approached, the window of the driver's seat had already fallen down. The young driver with a cold expression casually handed over a certificate and waved it at the security guard. The security guard's expression immediately became respectful. He opened the door and bowed slightly before letting Black Buick go.

In the United States, government agencies and officials were usually subject to various restrictions and oversight because of institutional problems. However, the military, which obeyed the President on the surface but was actually divided into many factions, was different. In the eyes of the Americans, the military was even more deterrent to the people than the government, and no one with military documents would provoke them casually.

Not to mention that the owner of the black Buick was not only a military certificate, he was also a genuine major general. Such a powerful figure who was always involved in military secrets naturally did not dare to interrogate him.

Buick stopped in front of the best villa in the area.

The four-storey villa was much taller than the surrounding buildings. It was in the middle of the road. The area outside the driveway was surrounded by grass and flower beds. It looked luxurious and dignified.

The young man casually stopped the car at the door. After ringing the doorbell, he stood upright and waited. The rain soaked his entire body in the blink of an eye, but he stood motionlessly, like a javelin, upright and upright.

Very quickly, a young man with an umbrella trotted out of the courtyard of the villa, opened the door and smiled, "Welcome, General Bolton."

Major General Bolton, Commander of the Raging Flame Assault Division.

Of the tens of thousands of troops that surrounded St Mary's Hospital, at least a quarter were Bolton's subordinates, and they were the most elite of them all.

"Is the councilman here?"

Bolton nodded and strode into the courtyard, asking casually.

"Yes, I'm watching the video of the ceremony at the White House in the study. You can go find him directly."

The young man answered respectfully as he tried to carry Bolton's umbrella.

Bolton nodded. He walked through the courtyard and directly entered the villa. He was wet all over, so he just casually took off his coat and walked towards the study on the second floor without stopping.

"General, what would you like to drink? Coffee? Or red wine?"

The young man downstairs shouted.

Major General Bolton, who was about to open the study door, paused and shook his head. "No need, thank you."

He pushed open the door and entered.

The magnificent national anthem rushed into Bolton's ears the moment he pushed the door open, mixed with warm applause and Earlaen's calm voice.

A white man in his forties was sitting on the sofa with a cigar in his hand. He was looking at the wall in front of him with a focused expression.

A huge LCD screen hung on the wall. All the sounds in the study came from inside the screen.

Bolton glanced at it and subconsciously curled his lips. On the screen was the ceremony that he had attended a few hours ago. Even now, Bolton still felt that the five-star general medal on Earlaen's shoulder was incomparably dazzling.

Members of this Council would also have such a feeling, right?

Bolton subconsciously looked at the middle-aged man.

The other party's expression was still focused, as if he didn't see him enter, nor did he have any intention of talking to him.

Bolton waited silently.

The ceremony on the screen finally ended with applause. The senator on the sofa pressed the pause button before looking at Bolton.

He pointed at the screen and smiled. "It was a farce, wasn't it?" He said softly.

"Yes, but this farce is not simple."

Bolton replied calmly.

"Of course, Yurisses put the future and future of the United States at stake in order to stabilize his position. The ceremony in front of him can be said to be a farce, but it can also be said to be a disaster."

The councilman said calmly as he raised his hand and took a deep breath of the cigar in his hand.

Bolton was slightly shocked. He understood that Atlas's entry into the United States would not be a good thing, but the worst scenario was just the rise of another wealthy family. All aspects of the situation in the United States would be affected, but after a short period of impact, the country would naturally reach a new balance. No matter what, he would never think that Atlas's entry into the United States Congress would affect the future and future of the country.

These words were a little heavy.

"The relationship between Yurisses and Earlaen is not simple, not even very harmonious. The death of General Roth Bruce vaguely proves this. Did you find anything at the scene?"

The councilman was silent for a moment and asked in a low tone.

"No, I'm investigating, but the murderer is obviously not simple. Everything has been done very cleanly. Locking onto him is not an easy task. I still need some time."

Bolton whispered in a respectful tone.

"Take your time. Keep it a secret. Keep it a secret."

The councilman nodded and changed the subject. "How is St. Mary's Hospital?" He continued.

"Arranged."

Bolton said confidently, "Colonel Crassus will carry out my orders perfectly. If Lin Xuanyuan and the others break out of the encirclement, the Raging Flame Assault Master will focus on preserving his strength."

"Very good, you did a good job."

The councilman smiled approvingly and looked at Bolton with a gentler gaze. "Bolton, don't you want to know why I want you to do this?"

"This isn't important."

Bolton shook his head. "The important thing is that I believe you won't do anything bad for the United States. That's enough."

"Thank you for your trust, Bolton."

The councilman nodded. He thought for a moment, He shook his head and said, "it 's very complicated, It's hard for me to explain, Some of it was even speculated by me, If my conjecture is correct, So in this case, Regardless of whether it was Yurisses, or Earlaen, Their aims are contradictory but not contradictory, I don't know what Yurisses's thinking, However, he wasn't stupid. Especially after Atlas showed off his strength, Yurisses couldn't trust Earlaen completely. Therefore, he needed to balance Atlas's strength. The royal family was the ideal candidate. Therefore, Yurisses might still be in a dilemma as to whether to leave Lin Xuanyuan and the others behind to negotiate with the royal family. But for Earlaen, there are a few people who must die. For example, Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu are the two most important people. As for the others, they are not important. I heard that there are four Autarchs attacking Saint Mary's Hospital this time? In fact, under normal circumstances, as long as Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu died, Earlaen would even let the others go. Just because of this, Earlaen and Yurisses's goals could clash. "

"Why?!"

Bolton was puzzled, "You mean after killing Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu, Earlaen might even show mercy? To those people from the royal family?"

"Be merciful?"

The councilman smiled and shook his head. "He wouldn't do it so obviously, But it's always okay to pretend to be seriously injured, What Earlaen wanted was victory in the war between the United States and the Divine Empire, rather than destroying the royal family, Especially at this time, Until they lose their footing, If they wiped out the royal family, then they have no value in existence, So Earlaen himself was conflicted, He had to weaken the royal family, but it cannot be completely eliminated, He had to control the power of the royal family to the point where it could threaten Atlas but not have a fatal impact on him, Right now, the three giants of the Imperial Clan were all World-shaking Sovereigns, If the Emperor can't kill him, then Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu are the best choice. As long as the two of them die, the imperial family will be greatly injured, but they also have the strength to threaten Atlas. However, this threat will be much smaller. At the very least, if I were Earlaen, I would kill Lin Xuanyuan and Wang Fuyu with all my might and deliberately let Ye Liu-li off. "Of course, all of this is only true if Atlas's high-end combat strength is not damaged. If Adolf dies, then Earlaen can only choose to continue killing Ye Liu-Li. Only in this way can Atlas have an advantage over the royal family."

Bolton was dazed, his head hurt and his brain swelled. He shook his head fiercely subconsciously.

The councilman laughed heartily. "Of course, These are my personal speculations, "Actually, I'm just an outsider like you. I'm just thinking too much. It's possible that I'm just thinking too much. The current situation is too chaotic, but it won't affect us in the short term. So don't think too much. As long as Crassus can complete today's mission, we'll have a chance to participate when the show starts in the future."

Bolton nodded silently.

"You can go back first. I have an important video message, so I won't keep you."

The congressman stood up and shook Bolton's hand. After watching Bolton leave the office, he sat back on the sofa and took the initiative to send a video request.

The video request waited for a full three minutes before connecting.

A middle-aged man with bloodstains on his body appeared on the screen.

A man who should, but should not, appear.

Emperor!

The emperor of the royal family!

"Has His Majesty forgotten to change his clothes? The blood on your body is too dazzling."

The councilman was still sitting on the sofa, looking at the calm-looking Emperor. He said jokingly with an exaggerated tone.

"No time, no extra preparation. None of this matters, does it? Senator Dabinett, I hope you will give me the information I want to hear."

On the screen, the Emperor said calmly.

Dabinett Charlemagne.

A member of the U.S. Senate.

Senior Councilman.

The strongest contender in the presidential race right now!

Dabinett's political group was one of the strongest in the country, and Dabinett was seen by the outside world as the most promising power figure to succeed Yurisses.

Dabinett had at least a 70% chance of reaching the top if the timing wasn't too sensitive to put Yurisses at the front desk.

This was a truly important figure in the United States.

Dabinett had been secretly interacting with the royal family for nearly a decade, He wasn't in a hurry to contact the Emperor when the conflict broke out between the United States and the royal family. In his view, this was a complete opportunity. Yurisses's face was ashen and his prestige was lost. This was his chance to ascend to the throne. If the shadow of war hadn't enveloped him, he would have already taken the position he dreamed of.

However, since there was a war, he was not in a hurry. He threw all the mess to Yurisses to clean up. When Yurisses was done, he would drive him down and then sit on his own.

That's what Dabinett was planning.

But Atlas' entry into the United States disrupted all his plans, Especially after Atlas showed off his strength, Dabinett suddenly realized that although Yurisses's position was on the verge of collapse, with Atlas's support, it would not be easy to pull him down. Under such circumstances, Dabinett finally began to contact the Emperor and reached some secret agreements.

These secret agreements, which were destined to be undisclosed, were also destined to be filled with lies and cunning. However, no matter how many plots and traps there were, at least for now, neither side had any intention of betraying the other.

"I have indeed prepared good news. Your Majesty, do you have any good news for me?"

Dabinett took a sip of his cigar and asked calmly.

The Emperor's expression softened a little. He said indifferently, "Three billion dollars will enter your account within an hour. How is the news?"

"This is also good news. US dollars, this is the cutest thing."

Dabinett laughed even more happily. "Your Majesty, if your men's combat prowess is as you predict, then their final breakthrough would not be a problem, The Raging Flame Assailants would take a step back as they broke through the encirclement, "This is the limit of what I can do under the current situation. As for how they leave the United States, I need you to think of a way. Apart from that, the only thing I can do is to restrict the forces that I can influence to search and hunt them down. However, that is only a part of it. I am powerless to do anything else."

"It's good that they can break out of the encirclement."

The Emperor nodded.

"Then war..."

Dabinett looked at the Emperor and quietly probed.

The Emperor looked at Dabinett expressionlessly. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "My goal is to save Wang Fuyu. As long as my people can return safely, I will consider canceling this war that neither side wants to please."

"Of course, of course. I completely believe in Your Majesty's influence in the Divine Continent Empire. That's simply terrifying!"

Dabinett immediately became excited and said in a much louder tone, "Your Majesty, please believe me. The benefits of a truce to the royal family far outweigh the benefits to the royal family of a war. This is my sincere words."

"Yes, I believe it."

The Emperor smiled and nodded. His entire body seemed to be wearing a mask. He was hypocritical but natural.

Dabinett seemed to be extremely excited. He smiled and nodded again, unable to conceal his emotions.

He helped the royal family, The price the emperor had to pay was a truce. This was also part of the agreement. If the truce was truly possible, then Lin Xuanyuan and the others would be the last straw that would crush Yurisses. At that time, he would ascend to the presidency of the United States and directly control the most powerful country in the world!

Dreams are at hand.

Dabinett's entire body trembled slightly.

"I await your good news, Dabinett."

On the screen, the Emperor's voice sounded again.

"You will soon get the good news you want."

Dabinett's tone became even more polite.

The Emperor nodded without saying anything.

"Your Majesty, the Divine Continent Empire seems to be holding a central plenary meeting right now. Is the meeting going well?"

Dabinett paused and suddenly asked.

The Emperor glanced at him and said casually, "Now it's going smoothly. The flies have been found. Unfortunately, I didn't wait for the surprise from Earlaen . Not a single X-class expert."

"Then what do you plan to do next..."

Dabinett probed.

The Emperor smiled and said calmly, "Since Earlaen can't surprise me, I will give him a surprise. In sixteen hours, I will arrive in the United States."

At the most impossible time, the emperor went to the United States at the fastest speed possible! ! !

This was absolutely shocking news.

Dabinett's entire body trembled slightly before he bowed deeply and said with a smile, "The United States welcomes your presence, Your Majesty."

The weakening of Atlas was originally part of the agreement between the two of them.

The call was immediately cut off.

At the same time.

In the lounge of the Jingxi Hotel in Nine Continents City.

The Emperor looked at the hanging up video and fell into deep thought.

"Armistice? After Xuanyuan and the others leave the United States, will they really armistice?"

Inside the lounge, Wang Tianxiong sat on the sofa and asked with a smile.

"Bullshit!"

The Emperor said indifferently, "Wait until Xuanyuan and the others leave the United States. It will be the beginning of the war. I lied to him."

To this world-class hero who had looked down on the world for decades, conspiracies and lies were things that had long been merged into his blood and bones.

It's definitely not harder to make than to eat and drink water.
