Chapter 911: The Message to All
Chapter 911: The Message to All
In front of the field domain screen, the members of the Security Decision Group were waiting for a response from the Central Council.
As time ticked by, the predetermined deadline was fast approaching, yet there was still no word from the Central Council.
Had something unexpected occurred? Had they encountered an unforeseen obstacle or an unforeseen situation? All these possibilities were plausible. After all, the Central Council's situation was far more complex than that of any Central City, and a single action could have a ripple effect, with many matters influenced by factors beyond their control.
For now, all they could do was wait.
Soon, only two minutes remained until the agreed-upon time.
Everyone on the screen maintained a tense silence.
Chen Chuan glanced at Qi Weizhao and noticed the latter's unwavering composure.
If this operation did not receive the Central Council's approval and endorsement, it would become a local action by the Jinbei Central City Government Hall, and any risks or consequences arising from it would be shouldered by the decision-makers on this side.
The action was decided upon by the group, and with Qi Weizhao as the leader, it was difficult for others to oppose. Therefore, Qi Weizhao had previously made that statement, taking personal responsibility.
The purpose of this was to ensure that even if problems arose, not everyone would be implicated. Even if he were held accountable by higher-ups, criticized by public opinion, or even forced to step down, the final outcome would still be assured, achieving a de facto victory.
The leader's resolute attitude and willingness to take responsibility were enough to inspire and motivate those below to follow through with their tasks.
Finally, the clock struck 6:20 pm, the designated time for action had arrived, and still, there was no response from the Central Council.
Qi Weizhao showed no signs of wavering, and his expression remained unwavering. He raised his head and said, "The time has come, so..."
Just then, Secretary-General Qiao Yang rushed in, sweating profusely, and said as he ran, "Governor, the Central Council is calling! Due to the influence of a sea thunderstorm, the telegram is fifteen minutes late..."
Everyone on the screen turned to look at the telegram, but their expressions remained serious. They couldn't be certain yet if the Central Council's final decision was a rejection; in that case, no news would be better than a refusal.
If the matter was resolved in this way, there would be no room for criticism from above.
Qi Weizhao grabbed the telegram, quickly scanned it, and then looked up at everyone on the screen, "Ladies and gentlemen, the Central Council has approved our application report. I hereby announce..."
As he spoke, he stood up, and with a powerful voice, he declared, "Operation Dawn has officially begun!"
Everyone stood up and respectfully saluted.
Soon, the figures on the screen disappeared one by one, each with pre-arranged tasks and responsibilities. As the group members left and issued orders, the entire Central City's information institutions, enforcement departments, and various related organizations began to operate like a well-oiled machine.
After the incident with the Mother Spider's fission last year, the Jinbei Central City had undergone a high-intensity drill, so this time, everything was running smoothly.
Chen Chuan left the field screen, picked up the Snow Lady Sword, and departed from the rest area. He took the modern elevator down and exited the Government Hall.
The specific actions and the city patrol's arrangements didn't require his direct attention; while he was away, he had delegated tasks to the team below and communicated directly with the Government Hall.
His primary responsibility now was for the two active consciousness entities.
According to past information and intelligence from the covert department, the active consciousness entity "Guardian Spider" had been beneath the Municipal Parliament Building, never leaving, to ensure the safety of all parliament members and to exert a more direct deterrent on the Government Hall.
This active consciousness entity was unique, possessing an extremely strong reproductive ability. After becoming a weapon in the hands of the Municipal Parliament, the spider eggs it reproduced were secretly buried in many locations throughout the Central City.
Once awakened or entering a combat state, if it encountered a manageable foe, the spider eggs would remain dormant. However, if it faced a life-threatening situation, it would release a fast-spreading pheromone, causing all the small spiders to hatch and initiate indiscriminate attacks and destruction on personnel and public spaces.
This would cause great turmoil in the Central City, essentially a form of security blackmail.
This situation came to light when Chen Chuan revealed it upon his previous return.
(End of Chapter 911)
The legislators wanted to use this to make Chen Chuan dare not easily take military action against them, fearing that he would be caught in his own trap.
Due to the sheer number and their presence in every corner of the city, it was almost impossible to completely eradicate them in a short time.
However, this didn't mean there was no way to deal with it.
Since Chen Chuan dared to guarantee the safety of the Central City in front of Qi Weizhao, he must have had a plan, and the most crucial part of it was the Guardian Spider itself.
As long as he stood in front of that thing, it would be impossible for any information to be sent out.
Stepping out of the Government Hall, he looked across the brightly lit Council Building in the central square, with dazzling rainbow shadows flickering around and large screens continuously playing public news and propaganda for certain politicians.
It was raining now, and although the rain had lessened a little, it was still quite dense. The raindrops danced vigorously on the hard square ground, reflecting the colorful lights above. He strode towards it with composure.
Although there were still many government staff and passersby hurrying across the square, not a single person glanced at him as he crossed it, as if he were an invisible man.
When he reached the Municipal Parliament building, he saw numerous petitioners holding signs and wearing raincoats, chanting slogans. Some media reporters were also waiting there, undeterred by the rain.
Opposite them stood armed security personnel in black protective gear and goggles, their guns raised, vigilant and observing everything around them. They occasionally communicated with the patrol sentries via interface tokens and outer perimeter patrols.
Chen Chuan didn't even glance at them and walked straight in. Everyone seemed to ignore him.
In a 6-9-1-9-1-bar-1-look-1-no-1-wrong-1-version!
The lobby of the Council Building was as bright as daylight. Political brokers and public relations officers from large companies were whispering, and some were glancing at their watches, seemingly waiting for someone.
Occasionally, the front desk would issue a prompt, or a receptionist would walk over and say a few words, and someone would immediately get up from the sofa and quickly enter the elevator in front.
Chen Chuan stood in the hall and looked around. Crimson Veil's voice sounded in his ear: "Elevator number four."
He walked straight over, and as he reached the elevator door, all the interface tokens in the room received messages that attracted their attention, and some monitors felt that the field information seemed a little unstable, and the screen flickered.
At that moment, the elevator door opened, and Chen Chuan stepped inside and stood still. He didn't need any keys or perform any operations, and the elevator closed on its own, the floor numbers flickered, and then it slowly descended.
Crimson Veil had now accessed the field domain of Mother Spider and accepted the permissions granted by her. After obtaining the authorization from the central system,
The elevator descended to the twelfth underground floor, paused, and then stopped. A voice of an inactive consciousness entity sounded: "Welcome, Visitor Number Three."
Crimson Veil said, "The permissions Mother Spider can grant end here. Inside, the Parliament uses special materials to isolate external field information input, implementing an independent field domain. Without special commands and secure channels, it's difficult to enter from the outside."
Chen Chuan looked around and then glanced down.
"Is that thing below us?"
Crimson Veil said, "Below our feet, there's an underground space of over 5,000 square meters. Combining past intelligence and current field domain feedback analysis, there's a large number of high-energy nutrient transmission pipes and isolation materials. The probability of the Guardian Spider's presence here is over ninety percent."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "That's enough. We've reached our destination."
He bent down and placed his palm on the ground. After a while, cracks appeared at the edge of his palm and quickly spread outward. The surrounding area began to vibrate, emitting a cacophony of cracking sounds and the groan of overburdened structures.
However, the vibration was limited to a radius of four to five meters around him and didn't spread further. After a few breaths, a loud boom sounded, and the floor, with a thickness of nearly two meters or more, shattered under the impact of the high-energy explosion and field information penetration!
Regardless of the shattered concrete fragments or the debris of special materials, none of them fell to the ground. Instead, they all floated in mid-air as if gravity had ceased to exist.
Chen Chuan himself also floated in the air, looking down. His body slowly descended from above, and the fragments followed suit, falling with him. When he stood on the ground, they clattered down around him.
At this moment, he raised his head and looked forward. A large underground space appeared before him, with four tunnels leading in different directions, each with a heavy metal door.
