Chapter 570 - 365: Specially Supplied Dishes
Troy furrowed his brow and took the Wolf Head Badge, symbolizing the Wolf Assault Leader, for closer inspection.
Its craftsmanship was extremely realistic, but from some details, it could be seen that it was not the one Fenrir usually wore, but a finely crafted replica.
At this moment, Zhao Yiming’s voice slowly echoed: "You just said Fenrir needed a brutal sacrifice by Wolf Assault to gain everyone’s recognition before she stood out with her group."
"So can I also understand that all the Wolf Assault members who died in that calamity were sacrificed by her as stepping stones to climb higher?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a terrifying schemer, what a hypocritical person, such a person leading the front, can you really sleep well at night?"
Troy gradually came back to his senses, coldly glaring at Zhao Yiming: "Are you trying to sow discord?"
Zhao Yiming stood up and came behind Troy, lightly placing his hands on his shoulders, his words filled with a certain subtle inducement: "You said beforehand to let me speak directly, so I won’t hide anything."
"Yes, I am trying to sow discord, but it’s a bit different from what you imagine. The purpose of sowing discord is to split the enemy and ultimately defeat them, but we don’t mean to be enemies with Wolf Assault."
"Our enemy is only one, not Wolf Assault, but Fenrir herself."
Troy felt those hands on his shoulders getting heavier, and Zhao Yiming’s voice became deeper: "Let’s put it this way, after that disaster not long ago, this city had a bit of a problem."
"We never considered Fenrir a threat before; she was merely a slightly stronger Blood Code Carrier, fighting along the border with other groups every day. Although she broke through the Rusty Wall into the Inner City, to be honest, what does it have to do with our giant corporations?"
"We don’t care how much chaos she causes; whether those outside respect her or fear her, in our eyes, she is just an ant that jumps around a little better."
"But there’s one thing we can’t accept." Zhao Yiming leaned to Troy’s ear and slowly uttered two words, "Reverence."
"What is reverence? Respect and fear are for mortals, but reverence belongs only to deities."
"No matter how much people respect her or fear her, she is just a mortal."
"But when people start to revere her, see her as their spiritual support, and view her principles as their pursuit, she is no longer human, but a deity."
"In this city, or rather in this world, there are only three deities, represented by the three symbols at the top of Heaven-Reaching Tower."
"And now, another deity has emerged, still very young, elusive like a flickering flame, but it has appeared, and we have seen it."
Troy felt an extremely bad premonition, clenched his fists, and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Zhao Yiming spread his hands, revealing a profound smile: "I just said, this city has a bit of a problem. People have given the reverence that should belong to us to the Wolf King, which is a serious mistake that must be corrected."
"Therefore, we have prepared a grand execution for Fenrir."
"Snap." Zhao Yiming snapped his fingers, and all the lights in the banquet hall went out. Soon after, the surrounding glass curtain wall lit up, projecting beams of light, forming a large holographic image in the air.
The holographic image was a strategic map, judging by the layout of buildings and streets; it was Crown Plaza outside Heaven-Reaching Tower.
Crown Plaza is New Moon City’s most famous attraction, and from there, one can stand near and gaze up at the full view of Heaven-Reaching Tower, feeling the majesty of the giant corporations, making it one of the city’s iconic landmarks.
Around the holographic image of Crown Plaza, numerous clustered red dots could be seen, marked with various unit numbers, forming an apparent battle plan map.
Zhao Yiming stood behind the dazed Troy and said leisurely: "Execution location, Crown Plaza. Execution time, one week later on March 20th."
"As it happens, although Hegemony Company, Iron Blood Alliance, and Black Domain Group were founded in different years, their founding dates are the same; that day is exactly the joint anniversary of the three companies."
"Hegemony Company’s Razor Rapid Response Team, Wildfire Internal Guard Team; Iron Blood Alliance’s Snow Fox Assault Team, Near Guard Cavalry Team; Black Domain Group’s Dark Night Viper, Hundred Ghost Army."
"Our most elite Extraordinary Beings in the New Moon City area have all assembled, totaling 12,000 people, among them 47 ’ultra-limit level’ Blood Code Carriers, 52 implanted with ’Fearless Level’ prosthetics, 45 ’Flood Dragon Level’ beasts controlled by Spiritual Brain Modifiers."
"Additionally, to be sure, we each borrowed experts from our headquarters who have reached the Fifth Stage of extraordinary power, including one Blazing Blood High Tier Blood Code Carrier, one implanted with ’Pioneer Level 1’ prosthetics, and one Spiritual Brain Modifier who can control a ’Marquis Level berserk grade’ beast."
"This is the grand execution we have prepared for Fenrir."
Staring at the strategic map full of red dots, Troy’s pupils were already unfocused, cold sweat soaking his collar unknowingly with Zhao Yiming’s words lingering in his ears.
Information from giant enterprises is extremely hard to obtain; thus, how many armed forces they truly have in the New Moon City area has always been uncertain to the outside world.
And now, their ultimate power is fully displayed in front of him.
12,000 people...
It seems not much at a glance, considering whether it’s the authorities’ troops or those large Mercenary Corps, combat personnel scale is often measured in thousands.
