When he heard the words' International Special Organization Secret Meeting ', Yang Chen thought that he misheard. He laughed and said, "Are you kidding me, Abbess? I've never even heard of this something meeting, how am I supposed to participate? Moreover, from what you're saying, this should be an underground meeting between countries. I'm a thorn in the side of many national security organizations. How could they possibly let me go? "
Abbess Yun Miao finally believed that Yang Cheng really wasn't going to participate in the meeting. She hesitated for a while before saying, "This secret meeting could be said to be unprecedented in history. It's a gathering of spies, special forces, superpower organizations, as well as all sorts of official and unofficial organizations. Not all of them are national organizations. I thought that with your status, there would definitely be people who would try their best to invite you over. After all … the core of this meeting should be closely related to you. "
Hearing this, Yang Cheng's interest was piqued. He asked, "What do you mean by closely related to me? I've been back in Hua Xia for almost a year and a half. What could possibly be related to me?"
"It's about God," Abbess Yun Miao said straightforwardly.
Yang Cheng's smile froze. After a while, he said, "God? What God? " The first thought that came to his mind was: Could it be that Ares, that warmonger, had gotten bored of the Middle East and gone to Europe to fight? Forcing these countries to work together to find a way to kill that bull? That can't be right. Ares wouldn't be so bored as to attack ordinary people. Moreover, his interest should be in finding God's Stones, not causing destruction.
Abbess Yun Miao's face was filled with helplessness. "It seems like you really don't know anything. I was hoping to understand more through you so that I can make some preparations."
"Although I don't know anything, if you tell me what you know, I might be able to analyze it for you." Yang Cheng smiled.
Abbess Yun Miao pondered for a while before saying, "Right now, Europe and America are actually in a state of panic. Although the news didn't spread much, everyone is preparing for war. The reason is a little strange. It's a … God who calls himself 'Apollo' … "
…
Paris, France, Rue Faubourg Saint-Olore, Rue Elysees Arrondissement North, 55.
Elysee Palace, Presidential Palace.
The glow of the morning scattered on the green grass. Outside the wide floor-to-ceiling window of the president's office, on an ancient Chinese parasol tree, the new green leaves were dripping with crystal dew.
A few patrolling soldiers straightened their backs and walked through the cold path. Their solemn expressions did not match the elegant scenery around them.
This was the core of France's power. As a traditional power in Europe since ancient times, the peace and tranquility of this land did not mean that the world hidden below was really so.
Bang! Bang!
The sound of porcelain breaking came from the president's office, directly breaking the tranquility of the morning.
The exquisite, colorful, flower-patterned white porcelain was smashed onto the thick pine wood floor, breaking into pieces of sad little pieces. After rolling a few times with a moan, it completely bid farewell to the world.
The man standing in front of the wide mahogany desk was wearing a white shirt. The red tie on his chest was a little crooked, and he didn't have the time to tidy it up. He had a head of black-gray curls combed behind his head, and a mature face with a slight beard. He wasn't tall, but his shoulders were broad, and he had a dignified and ruthless aura.
Smashing the priceless porcelain cup in his hand didn't make the man feel any better. He seemed to have not slept well all night. His eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze was cold.
"General Depney, I need an explanation. What is going on?!" The man picked up a black envelope from the desk. On the envelope was a totem of a gold-plated sun with complicated lines!
The man known as Depney was currently trembling in the direction of the door. He was short and wore a neat green military uniform, and the stars on his shoulders indicated his noble rank of general.
The middle-aged man had a head of brown curly hair, and his skin was sickly pale. His cheeks were slightly protruding, and his facial features were a little sunken. Compared to the questioning man's face, Depney looked like a pitiful pug.
"Mr … Mr President, we … we are already investigating closely. We believe that the source of Apollo's threatening letter will have results very soon …" Depney managed to reply in broken French.
"Results?!" The president tore the black envelope in his hand and roared, "Since last week, this has been the ninth consecutive day of receiving a threatening letter from the black sun totem! According to the time on the letter, Apollo will kill me in at most three weeks! And you, as the director of our Directorate General of External Security, the trump card of the Seventh Bureau of Security, with the rank of General … You're telling me that more than a week has passed, and you're calling this fast?! "
Depney was so frightened by the furious roar that he took two steps back, almost touching the office door. His head was covered in cold sweat, and his legs began to tremble.
"Mr President … this … this Apollo is extremely cunning, and … and very dangerous. It's very difficult for us to find any loopholes in him …" Depney lamented.
The corners of the president's mouth twitched as he said in a low voice, "Depney, let me tell you, since I was able to make you the director of the Seventh Bureau and become the leader of the French Aces, I can naturally make someone else replace you … Your performance has disappointed me!"
Depney's already pale face drained of all color. He hurriedly bent over and knelt on the ground, almost crying as he cried, "Mr President, I … I will not let you down! The Realm of Gods led by Apollo has consecutively destroyed three military bases belonging to NATO, the European Union, and Russia. He has basically declared war on the world. He will definitely pay a price for such an arrogant act! After the secret meeting of the world's special organizations is held, we will definitely be able to unite the forces of all countries to find the nest of the Realm of Gods and destroy them. We will definitely not let Mr President suffer any harm! "
"Idiot! Apollo was able to easily destroy the secret military bases of three different forces. Does he not know that you are going to hold a secret meeting?! For someone who can easily destroy an entire military base, how is razing the Elysee Palace any different from stepping on an ant?! Is there any difference between your answer and lying to a three-year-old?! "the president said unhappily.
Depney hurriedly explained, "Mr President, please rest assured. Although Apollo's Realm of Gods is powerful, since he did not dare to appear openly and only dared to send a secret warning to the various countries of the European Union, he must be afraid. He was able to destroy the three secret bases only because the defenders were unprepared and used special non-military methods. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stopped after destroying three bases. Once we gather the elites of all countries and non-official Mutant organizations and find out the root of the problem, we will definitely be able to defeat him! "
"Hmph." The president reluctantly accepted this explanation. "I hope you will do as well as you say."
"Mr President, please rest assured. I definitely won't let you down." Depney finally heaved a sigh of relief and climbed up from the ground.
The president squinted his eyes and said, "During this period of time, VIPs and tourists from all over the world will be gathering in Paris. You better not cause any trouble, or else … you better be prepared."
Depney hurriedly agreed, nodding and bowing as he left the hellish office.
…
In the courtyard, Abbess Yun Miao was also nearing the end of her narration. "… When the guy who claimed to be the Sun God Apollo first appeared, he didn't attract the attention of the European security organizations. After all, some underworld organizations and mercenary organizations would use the name of a god to recruit people to join them. They only thought of Apollo as one of them, and the organization he founded, Realm of Gods, was only listed as a low-level terrorist organization, so they didn't put much effort into dealing with it.
But last month, that guy called Apollo unexpectedly found three military bases belonging to NATO, the European Union, and Russia, and completely destroyed them within three days, killing not even half of the defenders. Their destructive and scouting capabilities have risen to the ranks of an international terrorist organization.
What's even more troublesome is that according to some soldiers who were lucky enough not to be in the military base, they saw flames falling from the sky like a meteor shower and landing in the military base. Then, the base started to explode, and not long after, the entire base was blown up. It wasn't a conventional military weapon at all …
Because of this bizarre phenomenon, many people started to believe that Apollo was the real Sun God, and the Realm of Gods also started to have many followers. Many underground organizations and cults started to rise from the ashes, and started to attach themselves to them. "
Hearing this, Yang Cheng's eyes flashed with suspicion. He asked, "They aren't doing this just to destroy, are they?"
"Of course not," Abbess Yun Miao said solemnly, "Apollo has been requesting the European Union to recognize the legitimacy of the Realm of Gods since last week. He requested for the European Union to include the doctrine of the Realm of Gods in the constitution of the European Union. Apollo also requested for the European Union Council to make decisions …"
"What?!" This time, even Yang Cheng couldn't believe it. He laughed and said, "Doesn't that mean that Apollo not only wants to be a god, but also the ruler of Europe? Who knows, we might have to discuss this with America and Hua Xia in the future! "
"That's right. Although his ambition is ridiculous, he's already doing it," Abbess Yun Miao sighed. "Apollo has already secretly sent a threatening letter to the French president, stating that if the European Union doesn't give him a satisfactory answer within a month, he will start 'divine punishment' from the current president of the European Union Council, the president of France."
"Divine punishment?" Yang Cheng couldn't help but burst into laughter. After laughing for a while, he wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and said, "Although I've never seen Apollo, I don't think he's the real deal. However … I'm not sure what method he used to destroy the military base. I think it wouldn't be a bad thing if I could see it with my own eyes. I'm very interested in that guy with 'ideals'. "
Abbess Yun Miao said unhappily, "How can you still laugh? If he really is Apollo … then …"
Abbess Yun Miao frowned. After all, she had personally witnessed the battle between Yang Cheng and Ares when they were unsealed. That kind of mountain-moving and ocean-filling power made her feel a chill every time she thought about it.
Although Abbess Yun Miao wasn't too afraid of Yang Cheng's appearance, it didn't mean that deep down, Abbess Yun Miao dared to stand up straight in front of Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng could roughly guess the reason why Abbess Yun Miao was worried. After all, if Apollo, one of the twelve main gods, wanted to unify the world, unless the people from Hongmeng took action again, or if a main god was willing to fight Apollo for the sake of unsealing Hua Xia, the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade could only watch helplessly.
"Although it's not to the extent of worrying about the collapse of the country, the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade is in a terrible state now. We really can't afford to waste too much of our resources," Abbess Yun Miao sighed.
Yang Cheng was puzzled. "Why are you thinking so much? At most, don't participate in it. Do you think they can force you to participate in some kind of conference?"
Abbess Yun Miao frowned. "This is an official conference. General Cai has just been appointed and is busy with important matters. It's already very disrespectful for me to bring a few members of Dragon Group there. If not a single one of us goes, it's equivalent to falling out with the other organizations in the world."
Yang Cheng shrugged. He wasn't interested in such official things. Since Abbess Yun Miao was still worried, he couldn't persuade her any further.
Abbess Yun Miao felt that there was nothing more to say, so she didn't plan to stay any longer. "Take good care of Hui Lin," she said before leaving.
Just as Yang Chen was about to walk back into the house, he saw Christen walking out. Judging from her excited expression, it was obvious that she had eavesdropped on their conversation from inside the house.
