Chapter 727 - World Congress - Part 7

The five people raised their gazes and stared at General Wang intensely. Of course, they did not use their killing or anything to intimidate General Wang. They were just flabbergasted by General Wang's words.

"I hope The Tang Empire is willing to hand over your smart base and territory to the military. The military will take care of the rest to rebuild our country. You guys just can stay at the safe shelter, and the military will do their job to take back our country from the damned zombies." General Wang smiled naturally as if he was saying non-significant things.

"Of course, if you want to help, the military will recruit you guys and place you in an appropriate position. We are not going to refuse the people who were willing to help us to rebuild our great country."

Zhang Mengyao was worried that the hot-tempered Lu An, who admired Tang Shaoyang so highly, would be offended by General Wang. She kept checking the young man, but Lu An let out a chuckle instead of drawing his sword. That chuckle caused General Wang and his group to look at the young man.

Lu An was just around twenty, so young, but the Tang Empire took him to the World Congress. General Wang was not happy that this young man laughed at him. He looked toward Zhang Mengyao. "Please keep your subordinate in check."

"Also, this is not just a hope or wish, but a command from the military. You have to hand over the Tang Empire's territory and smart base because it belongs to our country! You civilian have no right to own that place!" General Wang added. It seemed what Lu An did was a trigger to General Wang. He was trying to enforce authority as a General.

"First, our leader will never apologize to anyone." Zhang Mengyao tried to be amiable. She was considering working together with the military if possible, but it was not possible. She did not bother with the formality or even basic courtesy. "Second, we are not going to hand over anything to the military. Third, the country you are talking about has fallen. Not a single country survived from the Game."

Zhang Mengyao pointed toward all the booths and threw a question to General Wang. "Is there a booth that represents a country? No! Do you know what it means? It means The System wants the old government to disappear and let the survivors form a new rule." Of course, the last part was just a bluff. She did not know what the System wanted. It was just a wild assumption from her.

"I am considering working together with you guys because you are my fellow countrymen, but I no longer have those thoughts. Please leave our booth! we are not willing to continue the conversation with you guys." Zhang Mengyao pointed out the exit.

"Heh!? Are you sure about this? Are you going to turn the whole country to be your enemy?" General Wang smirked. "Also, you are not the leader of the Tang Empire. Major General Shi Yan told me that the Tang Empire's leader was a man, not a woman. You can't make the decision for the faction, woman."

"It's a war declaration? Does that mean we can take over Suzhou City Establishment? That group has become a nuisance for us, and they are too close to our main base." Lu An made an unexpected remark that caused the five men to change their expressions.

"Do you think we are afraid of your empty threat?" The man in his mid-forties behind General Wang responded to Lu An. "We can send our aircraft and tanks to your base and flatten your territory!"

"Don't joke around, old man." Lu An smirked. "Do you take us as a fool? Do you know how many military bases we have raided? Those things don't work anymore."

Zhang Mengyao shook her head and met General Wang's eyes. "You are lucky that the Leader is not here, or else you will return to your booth in disgrace. Leave before we force you out of the booth."

She pointed at the exit and turned off the barrier. At the same time, she glanced at Lu An. The latter received the signal and directed his killing intent toward General Wang and his group. While General Wang fought the zombies, he was still too low in level to endure the fierce killing intent exuded by Lu An.

General Wang staggered a few steps back, the same for the other four. Without realizing it, they were out of the Tang Empire's booth. Zhang Mengyao immediately turned back the barrier. "Finally, they are gone."

She did not care what the others thought about them as she returned to her seat. The urge to hit General Wang's face was so strong that she had to kick them out of the booth. She did not want the Tang Empire to be blacklisted from the World Congress for something trivial like that.

However, they were not worried about the military's animosity because of what Lu An said. The advanced technology did not work anymore. Even the rocket launcher was not working. The tank was merely a steel shell as it could not shoot and move. If the tank did not work, let alone an aircraft, nuclear power was not a threat. That meant the military had nothing that could threaten them.

"So, what do you guys think about the vote? I agree with Lu An that we should vote for the fighting competition instead of the Royal Battle. We are individually strong, so why do we need to throw our big advantage by restarting everything to fight in the Battle Royal?" Zhang Mengyao voiced her thoughts after the unpleasant guests left their booth. She wanted to continue their discussion about the vote.

"I think so as well. Even if Lord Tang Shaoyang is not the highest level player, we can still get second place." Wei Xi agreed with Zhang Mengyao's reasoning.

After having a glimpse of General Wang, he felt that the Tang Empire was far ahead. Then he glanced at Lu An and Yu Shun. 'And we have a small monster as well, but I am not sure if Yu Shun will do well in a fighting competition… Nah, Yu Shull will probably overwhelm his enemy with his zombie army.'
