"What a bountiful harvest." After ending the battle, Sei Itō waved his hand and put the twenty-three espers into the Rubik's Cube world as he sighed with a chuckle.
"Karin, throw that guy down too." Then, Sei Itō raised his head and contacted Karin. "With your record of killing three F22's in seconds, it's either they don't come later, or they will definitely come with a large force. It's too much of a hindrance for you to hold this guy in your hand."
"Got it, take it." Karin replied. Then, the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style]'s body swayed and suddenly threw the soft blonde youth in her left hand toward Sei Itō.
Seeing this, Sei Itō immediately activated hyperspace perception and locked onto the blonde youth's spatial movement trajectory. He activated Instant Transmission and moved him in front of himself. Then, he quickly put the blonde youth into the Rubik's Cube world and imprisoned him.
Not long after Sei Itō put the blonde youth away, more than a dozen F22 fighter jets quickly appeared on the horizon and flew toward the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style] suspended in mid-air. After reaching the attack range, they launched an attack on the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style].
Thirty or so thin and long aircraft-borne missiles with long flaming tails flew toward the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extreme Style].
"This kind of thing is useless against me." In the cockpit, Karin shouted and pushed the control lever of the thruster vigorously. Then, the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style] turned into a stream of light again and jumped rapidly in the sky.
After a while, the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style] stopped and suspended in mid-air again.
"Boom, boom. Boom, boom … "The next second. A large number of explosions sounded in the sky one after another. Huge fireballs were like meteors that were not burned by the atmosphere and quickly fell to the ground. At the same time, the flames emitted by them made the [Red Lotus Sacred Heavenly Eight Extremes Style] look like an Asura from hell, ferocious and beautiful.
…
At the same time, in the meeting room of the Mei Nation's Ministry of National Defense. "Minister, the latest news is that Combat Flight Team 18 has been completely wiped out." A black woman in a business suit reported to an old white man in a military uniform who was sitting at a long table with his hands clasped on the table. He had a plump figure and looked a little bald.
"How is that possible? That's a combat flying squad. They can even fight a small-scale war. How could they be destroyed so quickly?! Are you sure you're not joking? " Before the man could speak, a middle-aged man with a fair complexion sitting next to him questioned in disbelief.
"I'm sure, Colonel Nicholas," the black woman said without changing her expression.
"The enemy is very strong," the Caucasian minister said with a frown.
"Where are our superhumans? Wasn't he also a superhuman? Why didn't you send those monsters over?! "A Caucasian old man who looked to be in his fifties frowned and questioned.
"Yes, but three minutes ago, we completely lost contact with the [Goddess' Torch] Superpower team. They must have been wiped out by the other party," a young officer explained.
"What about those guys who were raised like pandas?" The old man asked again.
"Level 7 telekinesis ability user Nicole Jackson lost contact four minutes ago. Level 7 discharge ability user Dennis David lost contact three and a half minutes ago," the same young officer explained.
"Useless, wasting so much of the country's finances. What's the use of raising them? "The old white man cursed in dissatisfaction, then asked again," Aren't there a few more? Send them out as well. "
"This …" The young officer didn't know how to answer this question. He could only look at the minister hesitantly.
"Hey, Thorndike. Calm down, "the minister reminded him and then explained," In less than a minute, we've already killed two superhumans. We've already lost two level 7 espers. If we lose more espers, it will have a serious impact on our international status and national security. For the sake of national security, we can't send more level 7 espers to take risks. "
"Then we just watch the president be trapped in the underground fallout shelter of the White House?" The old man retorted unhappily.
"There's nothing we can do about it." The minister shrugged helplessly.
"Minister, Vice President Duncan is here." At this time, a young man opened the door of the conference room and said aloud.
"I see, we'll go over now," the minister said.
"Okay, Thorndike, let's go see the Vice President." The minister stood up from his seat and looked at the old white man. After the old white man nodded and got up, he turned to the others and ordered, "Continue to monitor the situation at the White House, and let the experts deduce a combat plan that can effectively deal with the machine as soon as possible."
"Yes," the others immediately responded.
Then the minister and the old white man walked out of the conference room and went to another quiet room.
"Creak." With a soft sound, the minister and the old white man walked into the small room through the door opened by the soldiers. Then, seven people, six men and one woman, appeared in front of them.
"Still no results?" At this time, sitting in the main seat of the room, a white man in a suit with neatly combed black hair looked at the minister and asked.
"Yes, now it's possible to rescue the president from the hands of the terrorists unless we use high-quality weapons and more troops, and this is only a possibility. As for the definite result, I'm not sure." The minister spread his hands and said.
Hearing the minister's words, everyone in the room fell into silence.
After a while, seeing that no one spoke, the minister's face fell and he said in a deep voice, "So I propose that according to the National Defense Emergency Plan, Gregory Leslie be abolished as the president and the first vice president take over to organize the counterattack against terrorism."
"I agree." After a moment of silence, a man who was also in a suit and looked very old agreed in a deep voice.
"Agreed," Thorndike said.
"Agreed."
"Agreed."
"…"
"…"
In this way, except for the man sitting in the main seat, everyone else agreed to this resolution.
"Well, now I officially announce that this bill is in effect." The first man who spoke in agreement stood up and said solemnly, then he turned to look at the man in the main seat and said, "President Duncan, I now officially appoint you as the president of the United States of America. You will perform all the responsibilities and obligations of the president."
"Thank you, Inspector Thomas." Duncan got up from his seat and responded with a serious face. Then he issued his first order as president. "Minister Swett, please send someone to contact those terrorists immediately and ask them what they want. At the same time, inform the XXX military base to gather soldiers and be ready to launch a thunderous strike against the terrorists."
"Okay." Minister Swett responded. Then he turned around and walked out of the room and began to send people to carry out President Duncan's order.
…
"Sei Itō, there's a plane coming with a white flag." At this time, Karin's voice sounded in Sei Itō's ear.
"Oh? Interesting, let him come over. "Sei Itō raised his eyebrows and said.
"Got it." Karin responded, using [Red Lotus Heavenly Baji Style] as a guide, she brought the fighter jet that could take off and land vertically to Sei Itō.
"Screech ~" With a soft sound, the cockpit cover immediately opened upward, and then a blonde woman in a gray casual suit and white shirt, who looked to be in her thirties, stood up behind the pilot, turned over, and climbed down the escalator on the side.
"Hello." When she got down to the ground, she tidied up her clothes and walked to Sei Itō. The woman stretched out her hand and said to Sei Itō in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "I'm Michelle Turner, the foreign affairs liaison officer of the Department of Defense. This time, I'm here to talk to you on the orders of the higher-ups."
"Hello." Sei Itō shook Michelle's hand casually.
"This time, on behalf of our government, I officially issue a notice to Your Excellency. Please immediately stop the armed attack on the White House. Otherwise, we don't mind sending a large number of troops to encircle and annihilate you, even if we have to pay a heavy price." Before the formal meeting, Michelle made a righteous announcement, as if she was using Javert Baton.
"Is that so?" Sei Itō raised his eyebrows and said with a faint smile on his face.
"Yes." Michelle stared blankly at Sei Itō and confirmed.
"Even if I drop nuclear bombs on all the major cities in your country afterward, it will still be the same." Sei Itō chuckled and asked.
Hearing Sei Itō's words, Michelle could no longer maintain the expression on her face. Her expression changed slightly as she looked at Sei Itō, wanting to know if he was joking or serious.
"You don't have to play dumb with me. As long as you fulfill my request seriously, I will immediately leave America and live a carefree life." Sei Itō said softly to Michelle, whose expression was changing constantly.
"Your request is …" Michelle calmed down and asked with a serious expression.
"I want a list of all the superpower users in your country, information on all the awakened and unawakened superpower orphans, as well as all the research on superpower users. Of course, I also want information on the manufacturing and use of nanotechnology." Sei Itō chuckled and said, "As long as you fulfill my four requests, I will immediately take my people and leave America. I also promise that I will not go back on my words and launch a nuclear bomb attack on America after this."
"Your Excellency, you are asking for too much." Michelle said with an ugly expression.
"No, I don't think I'm asking for too much. You should know that this is a deal that could decide the fate of America." Sei Itō laughed and then looked into Michelle's eyes. He smiled evilly and said, "Are you going to compromise with me and let America continue to exist, or are you going to fight to the end and let me use a nuclear bomb to destroy America and turn it into a barren land?"
Michelle, who was being stared at by Sei Itō, was like a little lamb being stared at by a ferocious wolf. She took a step back with a pale face and looked at Sei Itō as if he was crazy. Her lips were trembling, but she could not say a word.
