Humans were actually very emotional beings, but at the same time, they were also sincere and realistic. Cruzet's overt plot showed what Ingram was doing now. He did not need to use any demagogic words at all to stir up the hearts of the civilians in a country.
A live broadcast five hours before the voting began, a battle against the BETA contestants that was as easy as smashing rotten wood, gave the people of this country a glimpse of hope, a glimpse of the future, and made the people of the whole country seethe with excitement.
Cruzet's approach was actually a very common one used by Xiao Ran. It was a way to increase one's reputation, value, and arouse people's real needs and admiration. At the most critical time, he would use the most critical thing to impact the hearts of those who knew nothing.
Even though Ingram's battle with the BETA before the voting started was simple and hot-blooded, he was actually doing something that the civilians wanted to do, awakening their hearts that had been deceiving themselves in reality. Compared to Ingram, with just a little hint and reminder, Kreutzer didn't need to do much to expose the fact that the other contestant was having a meeting with his own team at this time and was sitting in a safe place to prepare for another election. But compared to Ingram, with just a little hint and reminder, Kreutzer didn't need to do much to expose the fact that the other contestant was sitting in a safe place and preparing for another election.
It was originally a very common thing, but in such a world environment and special time, it made everyone feel a strong contrast. In addition, some excited public figures soon publicly expressed their support for Ingram. Even if Cruzet did not guide the situation after that, some people, under the encouragement of hot-bloodedness and excitement, changed their original choice at this shocking moment. It was as if not doing so would be going against the whole world.
At this time, the public opinion and choice of the whole country were completely the same. The number of polling places all over the country had also increased by more than five times before the voting officially began. The video of Ingram's battle was repeatedly played in various polling places. The purpose was to end the voting faster under the impact brought by Ingram.
The result seemed to have been determined from the beginning of the voting. Ingram directly crushed his opponent in a way that was far in the lead. In the beginning, his opponent could only get one vote out of dozens of votes. Later on, although this ratio gradually decreased, he still crushed his opponent to about one-tenth of his own votes.
Using this kind of excitement and shock, as well as continuing to create this kind of excitement and shock, Ingram obtained the most support from the very beginning. He left his opponent behind by more than ten streets, directly locking in the final victory ahead of time.
Xiao Ran, who had been paying attention to the situation, nodded after confirming Ingram's victory. The final results were tabulated in less than 24 hours. The original reason for directly attacking the United States after Graham's defeat no longer existed.
When the final results were tabulated, the moment Ingram appeared on the television with a serious and peaceful face and began his inauguration speech, the entire Burning Legion finally bared their fangs to the world for the first time after three months of silence.
A bloody and cruel purge soon began. Members of the Burning Legion, who were scattered in various regions, began to use various methods to come out. Some were assassinations, some were direct assaults, and some were directly piloted by mechs from another world. They began to take action against those who had long been on the kill list.
At this time of celebration in the United States, the situation in the Federation suddenly became extremely tense. It was as if the whole world had collapsed, and at the same time, there was a terrible time of bloodshed in many places.
In the Soviet Union, New Moscow, several mechs suddenly appeared in the city and launched attacks on several important places and high-rise mansions. In the frontline base, a group of troops that covered almost half of the entire frontline base suddenly took control of the entire base. They then led people out of the base with terrified faces one after another. After a series of gunshots, peace was restored.
In the Far East, Zeng Jia wielded a long sword and slaughtered a group of people who had gathered to watch the United States' movements. Bai Hechou controlled his supporters behind the scenes to re-occupy all the important places.
…
At the same time as this bloody incident, Ingram stood on the podium in the center of countless people and delivered his speech. "My fellow citizens, I am now in front of you, standing in the most central place that will soon represent the rights of the entire country. I just want to say a few words from my heart, about us, about mankind, and about the earth."
"Since the discovery of the Beta to the present, mankind has been resisting the Beta's invasion of the earth for decades. For decades, even after using various methods, we have not been able to stop the Beta's attack on us. For decades, countless human compatriots have been sacrificed in the hands of the Beta. In the face of the Beta, we have almost no ability to resist."
"However, I have also discovered something even more terrifying in the process of eliminating these Beta's. The Beta's are not only spread on Earth and Mars, but throughout the entire solar system and the entire universe. There are also differences in levels. The Beta nests on Earth are only level six, but the nests on Mars are level nine."
"An inconspicuous Level Six Nest under a Level Nine Nest was able to force humans into a state where they could only resist for a few decades. If a Level Six Nest, Level Seven Nest, or even a Level Nine Nest were to appear personally, then humans would definitely cease to exist. No one would be able to escape this crisis on Earth."
"But a year ago, the X-series body developed by me and the new series of bodies developed by the Federation won a real victory in the battle against the Beta for the first time. They swept through ten Beta nests in a row. It can be said that this is a huge victory that has not been seen in decades since the discovery of the Beta's existence."
"Under that situation, whether it was the United States or the Federation, if they could have continued to forge ahead and cooperated with the Federation in this year to jointly contribute more strength to the Beta's strategy, then the Beta on Earth might have been driven out of the earth by now."
"But … But whether it was the United States, the Federation, or any other country's forces, there will never be a lack of ambitious people in this world. For more rights, for more benefits, in fact, they have more advanced weapons, but they have stopped all military operations that should have appeared and continued to be in a stalemate with the Beta."
"And in order to drive the Betas out of the earth and gain the power to resist the Betas in the universe, I had to unite with more ambitious people who wanted to protect the earth and mankind. During my disappearance for a year, I conducted more research and obtained very shocking results."
"From today onwards, I will unite all those who want to protect mankind and the earth, contribute the research results we have obtained, and drive the Beta out of the earth together. I will also vigorously develop a new military force and completely eliminate all the Beta nests on Earth within half a year."
