"We're safe."
The whistling of helicopter rotors had gradually disappeared from a low-rise building at St. Mary's Hospital. The roaring of machine guns still echoed not far away, but the vicinity of the low-rise building was already quiet.
Yurisses struggled to get up from the ground and trembled violently. He looked around blankly until he was sure that there were no enemies nearby. He let out a long sigh of relief and repeated, "We're safe."
"I must say, this is temporary, Mr. President."
Earlaen's tone was cold as he looked at the obvious shoe mark on Yurisses's face. A look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
President of the United States?
In the face of death threats, such a president's reaction was no different from that of a normal person.
At the very least, all he could see from Yurisses's face and eyes was surprise.
Surprise for the rest of my life.
The ruler of the United States seemed to have forgotten the humiliation of his face being trampled under his feet. His expression was very happy and his eyes were very bright, but in Earlaen's eyes, all of this carried an indescribable hilariousness.
"Yes, it's temporary. My marshal, I understand what you mean."
Hearing Earlaen's words, Yurisses quickly nodded. While his soul was still in shock, His old schemes and cunning seemed to have completely disappeared, His words became very straightforward. "I 'm sorry for everything I' ve done today, Even I admit, I made some stupid decisions. In today's war, I will treat all the soldiers who died in Atlas as heroes in the name of the government. The Atlas family will become the heroes of the United States. Also, after today, the military of the United States may have some good vacancies, such as the chief instructor of the Marine Corps? Like the leader of the Nighthawks? Or the 75th Ranger Regiment. We can discuss all of this. "
Yurisses spoke more and more smoothly. He took the initiative to get up from the ground, walked to Earlaen , and stretched out his hand. "This is my apology and my sincerity. I hope that my occasional foolishness won't prevent our cooperation from proceeding." Marshal, the situation is not very optimistic about the United States and Atlas, so we should not continue to suspect each other and be wary. I suggest that we cooperate more closely.
"Closer?"
Earlaen looked at Yurisses ' outstretched hands, his narrowed eyes flashing with playfulness.
"Yes, it's tighter. This is our only choice."
At this moment, Yurisses seemed to have completely calmed down. Being able to become the president of a country was not something he could afford to do? After losing his composure for a short while, his mind started to clear up.
"For example?"
Yurisses asked calmly.
"For example, I can give you everything you want, and you have to give me everything I want. You want power, I give it, you want status, I give it to you. As the Marshal of the Military Army, you have to provide something other than martial power at a critical juncture in our war, don't you?"
Yurisses narrowed his eyes and said.
"Something other than martial power?"
Earlaen couldn't help but laugh, "Atlas is the strongest."
"Then what made Atlas so powerful?"
Yurisses asked reluctantly.
Earlaen's expression stiffened, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
He understood what Yurisses wanted.
What he wanted was all kinds of formulas for Atlas gene potions!
Sure enough, he had a good appetite.
Earlaen was still smiling, but the temperature in his eyes quickly started to cool down.
"The United States does not need all of Atlas's technology. What we need is something that will benefit us. For example, technology that can make some soldiers stronger. I believe this is definitely not the most precious technology in Atlas, is it?"
Yurisses continued.
"Mr. president, As a member of the United States, As the Admiral of the Rice Army, "I do have an obligation to come up with some formulas, but you won't understand. Anything that can increase the combat strength of ordinary soldiers is very important to Atlas. With my current situation in the United States, I'm afraid our Atlas race will be in great danger."
Earlaen smiled unhurriedly. Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Yurisses, "Danger? Marshal, we are the closest friends. Are you still worried about danger with me here?"
"Heh …"
'"Mr. President, don't you think this is ridiculous based on our trust? At least here in my country, your credit is bankrupt. In the United States, this is a felony. I can't convict you of anything, but what makes you think I will continue to trust you?" Earlaen said calmly.
'"..."
Yurisses ' expression was a little embarrassed, and there was an undisguised look of regret in his eyes.
He had ten thousand reasons to do so in order to restore Wang Fuyu's fighting strength, but he would still regret it when the truth was completely different from what he had expected.
The royal family's successful breakthrough today could be said to have been personally caused by him. At the same time, he had caused all of this to happen, causing a huge crack to appear between him and Atlas that could not be ignored.
Suffering a crushing defeat!
"You have to believe me, my marshal. The situation is already very bad. Only if we trust each other can the situation be reversed."
Yurisses was silent for a long time before he spoke in a low voice.
"Perhaps."
Earlaen's tone was cold and distant.
Yurisses clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. He looked up at Earlaen and said, "Do you want to be the president? The president of the United States?"
Earlaen's pupils contracted as he stared fixedly into Yurisses's eyes.
"Help me win this war. As long as I win, I can send you to the presidency. You know, I can do it. As long as we win!"
Yurisses said fiercely.
Earlaen looked at Yurisses seriously, and Yurisses stared at him unyieldingly.
Long, long...
The gunfire not far away seemed to have stopped.
"I will seriously consider every word you say."
Earlaen suddenly turned around and said, "As long as we survive this danger."
"Danger? We're..."
Yurisses opened his mouth subconsciously and was interrupted by Earlaen. "Stupid, what do you think I'm talking about danger?" What do you think I'm talking about temporary safety? No, it's not what you think. You don't have to worry that I won't protect you. But the situation is that it's very difficult for me to guarantee my own safety. Mr. President, we're all in a weak state now. We're pathetically weak. What are our enemies doing? They may have taken over the base of the Barrier Armored Legion, There is enough firepower to destroy the entire Federation City, and we have already lost contact with all sides. In such a situation, St. Mary's Hospital will definitely be the first target of the enemy, at least one of them. Indeed, we can block the enemy's helicopter now, then what? Do you think this building can block enemy missiles? "
"Boom!"
Following Earlaen 's words, a loud explosion suddenly sounded. The explosion was so intense that it was almost equivalent to an explosion in Earlaen 's and the others' ears.
The earth trembled violently.
Fire splashed.
His voice was deafening.
Missile bombardment!
"Look, this bunch of bastards, they've already started bombing St. Mary's Hospital!"
Earlaen shouted.
"Go to the basement. There is an underground warehouse nearby. We can temporarily hide there!"
Yurisses , whose expression had changed drastically, suddenly shouted loudly.
"Idiot! The basement? Are we going to leave after we enter the basement? The building here will crush the entire basement. Are you planning to trap us to death?"
Cato cursed coldly.
'"No, no, that's the place where the hospital stores the physical items. That place has enough physical items and water, and enough space. As long as we enter that place, we can even last until the end of your weakened period. With your strength, can't you still come out at that time?"
Yurisses shouted.
Earlaen's heart skipped a beat as he grabbed Yurisses and slowly said, "No matter what, it can't be worse than this. Lead the way, Mr. President."
