Chapter 1701 Who Will Know? -Part 23
*Cough* "Seems like our interim leader is alive and well, to say the least." General Ost tried to keep his elation that their leader was all fine and dandy. "The military council will discuss again on the actions needed to be taken. For now, Parry City Citizens, please accept our basic hospitality and stay here for your safety. Should what Interim Leader Jin had said be true then we are afraid that you might be in danger if you were to return to your abodes."
Just as General Ost was about to keep it short and simple, another Live Broadcast came about and it was General Toba. For some reason, this consistent live streaming of broadcasts is becoming a joke. "Parry City Citizens. Do not mistake their hospitality for compa.s.sion. You had seen for yourself that they are the ones carrying weapons and ordered all of you to stay put like animals."
"Do you really want to be seen as animals? The Proud People of Parry City should not even be afraid-"
"Afraid- to have their own stand against tyranny and traitors that harm their way of life." This live broadcast was new but it shocked all of the Parry City citizens as it was none other than their Lord, still alive and breathing, Sir Peru Peru.
"If all were said is a lie, I will stand behind General Toba all the way. However, no matter how I see this and with this recording, I can no longer rest on this bed and live with inaction." Sir Peru Peru said and he played the audio recording without care.
"CUT THE LIVESTREAM! HOW THE h.e.l.l DID HE KNOW ABOUT THIS? You! I thought you said that the bank had a.s.sured us that all financial records between the Royals and us had been erased. How can that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Jin able to find it? Did someone keep the records with the intention of blackmailing us! You find that guy right now and shoot a f.u.c.king missile in Daimon if need be!" The audio recording ended and General Toba was standing in the livestream broadcast lifeless.
"General Toba. Not only have you committed the crime of attempted homicide against the current Lord, Sir Peru Peru, but you are also guilty of the intention of kidnapping and harming the interim leader of Parry City, Lord Jin!" Sir Peru Peru played another video recording with the time stamp and date which showed he had pa.s.sed the temporary power to Lord Jin.
"Holy s.h.i.+t, this is like watching a scripted show of a family feud. This Sir Peru Peru is also not a simple guy," Jin said as he had the live broadcast at the side of his vision with the aid of the System. They were already approaching close to the underground facility and just as a guard came out to check the outside parameters, Page knocked him out from the back.
"Glad to see you again." Jin raised his hand out to fist b.u.mp Page.
"Good to know that you are in the pink of health too." Page returned the fist b.u.mp. "Since you are coming based on the broadcast, I had already taken over a few Mechanoids in the area and they had sufficient access to lead to the third bas.e.m.e.nt. We have to figure out how to go further down after that. Click"s insect had shown that there were more than just a few bas.e.m.e.nts."
"Great job. Lead the way," Jin said as the fiasco continued at the corner of his eye.
"How are you alive? Are you even the real Lord of Parry City?" General Toba could not believe his eyes and ears. How did just one greedy move to attack the city with the Mechanical Dragon would lead to his downfall? He had no idea what was happening.
"Next time, check and confirm that I died before you even a.s.sume such leaders.h.i.+p status. Toba. You are a disgrace to our city. Citizens of Parry City, I beseech you to cooperate with Daimon City for now. And kind people of Daimon City, I apologised that your leader and manpower were needed to solve an internal conflict within Parry City. I also apologise for being incapable of controlling my own men and not being able to see the corruption that grows within the leaders.h.i.+p. But most importantly, Thank you." Sir Peru Peru coughed a little and the doctors who were monitoring his health asked him to close the broadcast and rest which he eventually did.
"With the plea from Lord of Parry City, Sir Peru Peru and clear cut instructions from Interim Leader of Daimon, Lord Jin, the Daimon Military would do their best to keep Parry City Citizens protected as well as defend our sovereignty should the reports of multiple Mecha Fire Dragons would to appear. Also, if any Parry City Soldiers were to surrender at the border, you would be offered asylum as well but make no mistake. We will shoot if you do not show your intentions well enough. Lastly, Pandarens, if you are seeing this message within Daimon City, I apologise for putting all of you in danger as well but please a.s.sist in battle should those Mecha Fire Dragons emerge. I am sure Interim Leader Jin will reward you generously if that happens." General Ost"s instructions ended and General Grieves who was on the ground affirmed the order. This led the entire Daimon Military in the Northern region to echo the same sentiments.
At that point, Sir Peru Peru had no idea that he had accidentally sowed seeds that would lead the eventual rebellion within the Empire and that his talk against General Toba had also sowed distrust within their own ranks as General Toba had no idea who had recorded the shouting. This also brought time for Jin and his Grey Bear Squad to enter the underground facility.
It might not be a full squad without Lynn but this time round Jin was sure that he had more than enough reason to kill on sight. There was nothing to hold back if these people did not wish to surrender. The broadcast was plain and clear that the Interim Leader of Daimon was out for blood against the Mechanical Dragons.
