Chapter 234 Prison
Chapter 234 Prison
Royal Bank, underground vault.
"Boss, a few Dawn people have to die to make the trick complete." Ah Da was worried. He naturally didn't want to see the Dawn people die. These fellows were squad leaders and platoon leaders, but the boss came first in everything. If the robbers disappeared, it would be a major blow to the prestige of the director of security.
"It's not necessary. All the gold reserves of the Royal Bank have been stolen. I may not even be able to keep my position as the Director of Security. After all, it is an important industry of the royal family. But 300 tons of gold is enough to serve as the raw materials for 30,000 evil soldiers. It is worth giving up some power. The most important thing now is the Great Expedition."
To create a vicious soldier, you need ten kilograms of gold, which symbolizes wealth, and a relatively intact corpse.
The greatest advantages of the Evil Soldiers are their loyalty and fearlessness of death, and they can rely on solar and wind energy to maintain operation. With this group of soldiers as the basic backbone, it is enough to expand a loyal and brave army several times larger than this.
The only problem is that the evil soldiers have an IQ of only 60, equivalent to a 9-12 year old child, and are unable to think deeply.
Jiang He picked up a box of gold and walked to the Deputy Minister of Countermeasures. He activated the control of fire, and flames suddenly ignited on his five fingertips, forming complex alchemical patterns.
But the next moment, a blood moon appeared next to the pattern symbolizing the Blood Bat Knight in the alchemical pattern.
"What are you doing?" Jiang He tilted his head and frowned.
Lilith spread her hands, "You are my God's favored one, so of course there are traces of the blood moon in the symbol."
Jiang He's expression was indifferent, "I don't remember promising you to become a favored one."
Lilith smiled and replied, "Only when the gods descend will the gods live in the bodies of living beings, and the vessels for the gods' descent must be those favored by the gods. I have no intention of tinkering with this behind your back. This is common sense. It is natural for you to become a person favored by the gods. You can also choose to refuse."
"Benefits." Jiang He was more concerned about this issue.
"Those favored by the gods have a higher status. All I can give you now is status. To put it bluntly, the abnormal rules of the Golden Age and below are not valid for you, such as the spells that kill you upon touch, or the spells that turn you into a cat, dog, cow, or sheep."
Lilith teased, "You are now in a relationship."
"It seems that Overlord is worth your investment."
"Otherwise, I'm not helping you become stronger because I have nothing better to do. There is no benefit in the world that comes without a price. It's just that you can't see the price for now."
The alchemical pattern formed by flames melted the gold, and the golden liquid covered the whole body of the Deputy Minister of Countermeasures. After a few seconds, the dead man stood up again with clear and pure eyes. The soul of the original owner had been completely shattered, and what was walking at the moment was just a vicious puppet with thinking intelligence.
Evil Soldier +1
"Let all the Dawn people come and transport the gold into the portable temple. I'm going to set it on fire." Jiang He ordered.
"I understand." Ada turned around and left wearing a black hood.
……
12 month 3 day.
Just when the turmoil inside the fortress had just subsided, a major robbery occurred in Queens. A group of robbers attacked the Royal Bank, set it on fire, and a large amount of gold was stolen. The once majestic and magnificent bank building was destroyed and engulfed in flames.
When the news spread, citizens rushed to various major branches to withdraw their savings, triggering a wave of bank runs. The resident embassy of the First Fortress immediately held the Council of the Ninth Fortress accountable. The Council passed a standing motion and, after the approval of the Archon, announced that the main person responsible for the incident, Security Director Jiang He, would be suspended and the order would take effect immediately at dawn.
That night, in the control area, the prison under the Security Bureau.
The Security Prison is the largest gathering place for prisoners in the entire fortress, with a total of 19 prison blocks, each with 2,000 people, totaling more than 38,000 registered prisoners.
"Jiang He, are you crazy?" In the warden's office, Jiang He moved the phone a little further away, and Mr. A's roar came from inside.
"Execute all prisoners in secret? Who gave you the power? You are simply doing what you want. I haven't settled accounts with you for the theft of the Royal Bank yet! With your ruling-level combat power, how could you let a few robbers get away? The parliament is still investigating this matter. Stop all your actions immediately. Don't think I won't know what's going on inside just because you close the door!"
The phone was hung up rudely and Mr. A couldn't sit still. He really didn't expect that someone would go crazy when he got power, even though he was quite experienced in judging the situation before.
As soon as the phone call was hung up, Ada dragged two prisoners' bodies into the warden's office.
The stop order from the Council and the Executive Office will take effect in two hours. The entire prison has been put into a closed and martial law state. The Dawn Company has taken control of the prison and is "interrogating" the prisoners one by one. Although the company's soldiers are guarding the scene with real guns and knives, the news is still inevitably leaked.
"Boss, are we about to hit the bottom line?" Ada was a little uneasy.
Jiang He nodded, stood up and transformed the two prisoners into ferocious soldiers. "To execute a prisoner in the fortress, you need the dual permission of the Judicial Department of the Executive Office and the Supervisory Group of the Council. But the reason I used is a prison riot, and the prisoners killed the warden. In this case, as the director, I have the right to launch an emergency response, suppress the situation and use hot weapons."
Two evil soldiers were born, and Jiang He sent them directly into the portable temple. The most dangerous time had passed. If the prisoners and the warden rebelled together at the beginning of the operation, it would be a big trouble. However, as alchemy continued to make progress, a thousand evil soldiers had disarmed the prison guards.
Gunshots continued to be heard in the prison. Someone noticed something was wrong and a large number of prisoners disappeared. This aroused the vigilance of various prison gangs inside the prison and the gunshots gradually became more frequent.
after an hour.
All the gold was used up and transformed into evil soldiers. Only half of the east district of the entire prison had people left alive. The guards and prisoners were locked up together. A thousand evil soldiers quickly cleaned up the traces and concentrated on making fires to create the illusion that the bodies were destroyed.
Meanwhile, in the portable temple, 29,000 evil soldiers were receiving a crash course in the use of firearms offered by the Dawn People. Half of the Rock Town began to look crowded after a large number of people moved in.
Prison gate.
Two armored vehicles drove over, and dozens of military mechas surrounded the prison. The 3,000-man reinforced regiment was armed with live ammunition, and the Dawn Company and evil soldiers on the wall also raised their guns.
Mr. A got off the armored vehicle with an extremely grim look on his face. The Council and the Army Group had just asked him whether the Director of Security was going to rebel.
"What on earth are you going to do!"
Fifty steps away, Mr. A lit a cigarette and asked.
Jiang He stood at the door with a calm expression: "A failed case handling, a sudden riot suppression, that's all."
Mr. A was so angry that he laughed, "It doesn't sound like a big deal. Do you think I'm a fool?"
Jiang He said: "There are hundreds of military mechas in a division, and the total number of mechas in the entire Ninth Army is more than 2,000. I am not confused yet."
Mr. A took a deep puff of cigarette. He actually didn't care about the bank theft and the casualties in prison. The emotions he had expressed along the way were just expressions. What he cared about most was whether the ruling powerhouse in front of him could remain peaceful. This was related to the progress of the Great Expedition.
"Then what do you say to us?"
"I voluntarily resign as Director of Security and hand over my power as a parliamentarian. When the war begins, my First Division can serve as the vanguard."
Mr. A narrowed his eyes. Everything else was secondary. As long as the other party supported the Great Crusade, anything could be discussed.
