Chapter 350: The Curtain Falls · Frost Plated Lion_3

However, in the world, there is no fortress that cannot be conquered. The more defenses you pile up, the more likely it is for problems to arise internally.

As the exclusive vehicle for the president, this hovering car had one fatal flaw—it was too advanced. It was not equipped with any mechanical control systems, which meant that once it was hit with a strong electromagnetic pulse, the entire vehicle would immediately lose its combat effectiveness.

This was quite normal, after all, hovering cars usually only traveled within the city limits, and the only thing capable of releasing an electromagnetic pulse in the city that could destroy a vehicle of this caliber was probably a nuclear bomb.

Liu Zhidong walked up to Madeleine, and said respectfully:

"Your Excellency the President, the hover car is ready, and the road security has been deployed completely."

"Hmm, I know."

Indifferently waving off the statement, Madeleine doted on her son, saying:

"Mom will call you again when I get back—don’t worry, it’s just a bit of money, after all isn’t the entire Frost Plated yours to have? Rest assured, Jimmy. I have already arranged your future; you will become the greatest person in Frost Plated, even surpassing the Twin Queens—there, I’ve got to hang up now."

Feeling slightly better, she turned around and stepped into the hover car. Liu Zhidong was about to board when his terminal suddenly rang. Liu Zhidong pretended to glance at it a few times, then said with a serious expression: "I apologize, Your Excellency, but GTB just launched another proposal against Frost Plated. I must attend to it."

"How annoying." Madeleine waved her hand dismissively and crossed her legs: "Go ahead, I can manage the press conference on my own."

"Yes." Liu Zhidong bowed and the hover car immediately took off, leaving the building’s helipad and heading towards the distance.

The stiff wind tangled Liu Zhidong’s hair as she raised her hand to shield her eyes from the cold sunlight, watching Madeleine’s vehicle fade into the distance, sighing softly:

"The real sun is still warmer."

Madeleine put down the terminal and sighed, "These people really are worrisome. The matter of delaying the distribution of condolence payments should still be managed, or else the Council might begin to have complaints about me—but what of it? As long as I am still president, the clean-up will never reach me."

Jimmy was indeed clever, knowing how to use the war to his advantage, but he was still too hasty. He at least needed to wait until he could run for Senator in his home state to make things tidy and discreet.

"Speaking of which, after all that arguing, I’m a bit thirsty."

She casually opened the fridge, prepared to take out a fine Zhengxu wine to quench her thirst. After finishing this, Madeleine planned to move out of the Twin Palaces and find a place with hot springs to take a good vacation, as making money and suppressing the military were really too tiresome.

Squeak—

The fridge detected her intentions and slowly opened the door, extending the tray—only this time, the tray filled with black bottles looked somewhat odd. The tops were pointed, and there were no caps visible, with several tail fins attached to the base.

Madeleine failed to recognize it, and took the cold, heavy ’wine bottle’ in front of her, instinctively about to pour its contents into her glass.

Boom!

The explosive blaze danced wildly above Twin Star City. The D2000 Wolf had its circuits directly burnt out by the electromagnetic pulse from within, which then set off the armory’s sympathetic detonation, quickly plummeting towards the ground and crashing into Madeleine’s personal statue at the Heroine Memorial Hall.

Bang!

The prison’s gate was directly blown open by the Mobile Armor, as the assault team members stepped over the guard’s corpse and entered the room, looking towards the man reading the paper with his back to them, and said solemnly:

"Mr. David Lyn, you are free."

David Lyn stood up, dropping the newspaper in his hands. The front page headline read ’Humankind’s Great Leap—Li Aozi Breaks into Space.’

He turned to face these unusual warriors and suddenly realized their uniforms looked familiar:

"You are... the Rose Army? I didn’t expect that an armed force opposing Frost Plated would come to rescue me."

"No, we are not opposing Frost Plated. We oppose Madeleine’s Frost Plated because we ourselves are Frost Plated People."

The leading female warrior lifted her helmet, revealing her silver hair and light purple eyes, and with a slight smile that showcased her sharply pointed teeth, she said:

"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Demi Guoerset, my brother is Anderson Guoerset, the supreme leader of the Eastern Guerrilla Team."

"I know that gentleman." David Lyn nodded slightly, "The ’Nomi Hostage Incident’ was a very unfortunate event. My condolences on the death of your niece."

"As for Nomi, that’s all in the past." Demi, cradling her gun, a flicker of sadness passed through her eyes, then swiftly returned to normal: "Now, we fight for the future."

She extended her hand towards David Lyn:

"Madeleine the old witch is dead. Are you interested in creating a different world with us?"

"President David Lyn."
