Chapter 911: News Arrives and Everyone Goes

In front of the field screen, members of the security decision-making group were waiting for a response from the center.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was almost approaching the scheduled time, but there was no news from the central government.

What happened?
Normally speaking, for such a big matter, Qi Weizhao would definitely communicate with his superiors in advance, and being able to say the time is one hour should mean he is somewhat confident.

But in the current situation, is there any change in this matter? Or have they encountered some unexpected obstacles? Or have they encountered unexpected situations?

These are all possible. After all, the situation in the center is much more complicated than that in other central cities. A small move can affect the whole body. Many things are not determined by the things themselves. There are too many additional factors that can affect them.

All we can do now is wait.

Soon, there were only two minutes left before the agreed time.

Everyone on the screen remained silent and the atmosphere was very serious.

Chen Chuan glanced at Qi Weizhao and found that the latter was very calm.

If this action does not have the permission and endorsement of the central government, it will become a local action of the Jibei Road Central City Government Office. Any risks and consequences caused by this will need to be borne by the decision-makers on the side of the Government Office.

The action was made unanimously by the decision-making group. However, if Qi Weizhao, the nominal team leader, insisted on pushing forward, it would be difficult for others to object. That was why Qi Weizhao said that he would bear the main responsibility.

The purpose of doing this is to ensure that even if something goes wrong, it will not involve everyone. Even if the individual is held accountable by the higher-ups, attacked by international public opinion, or even steps down and ruins his political future, the final results can still be guaranteed, and a de facto victory can be achieved.

The decision-maker's firm attitude and determination to take responsibility are enough to inspire and motivate those below him to follow and complete what needs to be done.

The second hand finally reached 6:20, the time for action had arrived, but there was still no response from the center.

Qi Weizhao didn't seem to be shaken by this, and there was no disappointment in his expression. He raised his head and said, "The time has come, then..."

Just as he said this, Secretary Qiao Yang suddenly came in, sweating profusely, and said as he walked: "Chief, there's a call from the central government! Because of the thunderstorm at sea, the telegram was received fifteen minutes later than the normal time..."

On the field screen, everyone looked at the telegram together, but their expressions remained serious. No conclusion could be drawn yet. If the center's final opinion was negative, then it would be better not to come.

If you get things done in this way, there will be nothing to complain about.

Qi Weizhao took the telegram and looked at it quickly. Then he looked up at everyone in front of the screen and said, "Everyone, the Central Government has approved our action application report. Now I declare..."

Then he stood up and said in a powerful voice:
"Operation Sunrise has officially begun!"

Everyone stood up and saluted solemnly.

Then, the figures in front of the screen disappeared one by one. Everyone had pre-arranged tasks and things to do. As the team members left and issued orders, the information agencies inside and outside the central city, the violence departments, and all the departments and organizations involved in various aspects began to operate in an orderly manner like a precision machine.

After the incident of the mother shrimp fission last year, all departments of Jibei Province received a high-intensity exercise and training, so this time the movement was very smooth.

After Chen Chuan came down from the field screen, he picked up the Xuejun Sword and left the lounge, took the elevator down, and walked out of the government hall.

He didn't need to worry too much about the specific operational arrangements for the Bureau and the city patrol this time. When he was away, he delegated the power to communicate directly with the Government Affairs Office.

His main responsibility now is the active consciousness of those two beings.

According to past information and intelligence provided by the secret department, the active consciousness of the Municipal Council, the "Guardian Spider", has always been under the Municipal Council Building and has never left. This is to ensure the safety of all council members and to form a more direct deterrent to the Government Affairs Hall.

This active consciousness is somewhat special. It has a very strong reproductive ability. After becoming a weapon in the hands of the Municipal Council, the spider eggs it bred are secretly buried in many important places in the central city. It can be said that they are spread all over the city.

After the guard spider is awakened or enters combat mode, if it encounters an enemy it can deal with, the spider eggs will stay there safely. However, if there is an emergency or its life is in danger, it will emit a pheromone that is transmitted very quickly. At that time, all the little spiders will break out of the eggs and begin to indiscriminately attack and destroy the surrounding people and public places.

That would cause great unrest in Central City, so it would actually be a form of safe kidnapping.

This specific situation was revealed because Chen Chuan posed a serious threat to the members of the municipal council when he came back last time, so he took the initiative to reveal it.

The councillors hoped that this thing would make Chen Chuan afraid to use force against them. Because there were so many of them and they were scattered all over the city, it was almost impossible to completely eliminate them in a short period of time.

But this doesn't mean it's really impossible to deal with.

Since Chen Chuan dared to say in front of Qi Weizhao that he could guarantee the safety of the central city, he must be sure of it. The most crucial point here lies in the Guardian Spider itself.

As long as he stands in front of that thing, he won't be able to send out any information.

Walking out of the door of the Government Hall, he looked at the brightly lit Parliament Building across the central square. Brilliant rainbow shadows were flickering around him, and large screens around him were continuously playing public news and promotional videos of certain politicians.

It was raining now. Although the rain was a little lighter than before, it was still quite dense. The water splashed violently on the hard ground of the square, reflecting the colorful light and shadows cast from above. He walked towards there calmly.

Although there were many government employees and passers-by walking hurriedly in the square at this moment, no one looked at him when he walked through the square, as if he was a non-existent person.

When we arrived at the City Council building, we saw a lot of petitioners outside holding signs and wearing raincoats, shouting slogans. Some people who were obviously media reporters were also waiting for news here, and even the rainy day couldn't stop them from leaving.

Opposite them were armed security personnel wearing goggles and black protective suits, standing ready for action. They raised their guns slightly and looked vigilantly at everything around them. From time to time, they would use their credentials to communicate with the patrolling sentries outside.

Chen Chuan didn't even look at them and walked straight in. During this time, everyone seemed to ignore him.

The lights in the lobby of the Parliament Building were as bright as day. Some political brokers and public relations personnel of some large companies were discussing something in a low voice. Some people looked at the opportunity from time to time, as if they were waiting for someone.

Occasionally, the front desk would issue a reminder, or the receptionist would walk over and whisper a few words, and then someone would immediately get up from the sofa and quickly walk into the elevator in front.

After Chen Chuan stood in the hall and took a look, Hong Fu's voice rang in his ears: "Elevator No. 4."

He walked straight over, and the moment he reached the elevator door, everyone present received some messages that attracted their attention, and some monitoring personnel felt that the field information seemed a little unstable, and the screen jumped.

At this time, the elevator door opened automatically. Chen Chuan walked inside and stood still. Without the need for any secret key or any operation on his part, the elevator closed automatically, counted the floors, and then slowly descended.

Hongfu has now been connected to the field of Ximu and accepted the authority granted by Ximu. After obtaining authorization from the center, the Government Affairs Office can forcibly seize and take full control of Ximu for a period of time. After all, this is the property of the state, and they have the power to use this authority in an emergency.

After the elevator went all the way down to the twelfth underground floor, it sank for a moment and stopped. Then the voice of an inactive consciousness sounded in the elevator: "Welcome Visitor No. 3."

Hong Fu said: "This is the limit of the authority that the Mother of the Shellfish can grant. Going further in, the Council has used special materials to isolate the field information input from the outside, and implemented independent field information. It is difficult to enter from the outside without a special password and a secure channel."

After Chen Chuan glanced around, his eyes fell to the ground below.

"That thing is down there?"

Hong Fu said, "There is an underground space with an area of more than 5,000 square meters under our feet. Combining the past intelligence and the current field information feedback analysis, there are a large number of high-energy nutrient transmission pipelines and isolation materials there. The possibility that the guardian spider exists there is more than 90%."

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "That's enough for now."

He bent down and stretched out his hand, pressing his palm on the ground. After a moment, cracks appeared on the edge of his palm, and then quickly spread outward. The surroundings began to vibrate, and there were dense cracking sounds and unbearable sounds.

However, the vibration was limited to a range of four or five meters around him and did not go any further. After a few breaths, there was a loud bang, and the floor slab, which was almost two meters thick and was strong enough to withstand the impact of high-energy explosions and the penetration of field information, was completely shattered!

However, neither the broken pieces of reinforced concrete nor the gravel of special materials fell to the ground, but all floated in the air as if they had lost gravity.

Chen Chuan himself was also floating there at the moment. He looked down, and his body slowly fell from above. The fragments also fell with him. When he stood on the ground, they also fell there with a crash.

At this time, he looked up and saw a large underground space in front of him. There were four tunnels in front, behind, left and right, and each tunnel had a heavy metal door.
