The Mechanical Empire of the End of the World

Chapter 459 Phantom Troupe

At the same time, in the square outside the city hall, Angelina, who was about to get on the car, received a call.

Without stopping, Angelina got on the car and hung up the phone in the car.

"Go to the basement..."

The driver started the vehicle, and the extended Mercedes-Benz left the convoy and drove towards the basement entrance.

In the back seat, Angelina smiled bitterly and said to Li Meng: "Li Meng, you are right, my father plans to evacuate the city hall secretly and is waiting for us in the basement."

Because the driver was there, Angelina did not say what happened.

The vehicle left the square and drove into the basement from the other side.

In the basement, the two got off the car.

"You go back."

After saying this to the driver, the two walked towards a car parked in the aisle not far away.

The driver who obeyed the order turned the car around and drove away in the direction of the exit.

Following Angelina, Li Meng got on a stretched Mercedes-Benz parked in the aisle.

In the car, Li Meng met President Dior, who was the only one except the driver.

Seeing that Odysseus was not there, Angela asked, "Father, Odysseus..."

Without answering, Dio nodded to Li Meng and said to the driver, "Let's go."

The engine roared, and the extended Mercedes-Benz moved in the driveway of the basement and drove towards the exit.

From the exit, the vehicle drove out of the basement and left the city hall along the road of the parking lot.

Until the vehicle left the city hall, Dio comforted Angela, "It will be fine. He is your husband and my office secretary. He can't retreat at this time. Someone has to take charge of the overall situation."

Angina was speechless. Her father was the president. He couldn't put himself in danger. It was wise to leave the city hall. She couldn't blame her father for this.

Speaking of this, Dio looked at Li Meng and smiled, "If it weren't for Mr. Li Meng's warning this time, I'm afraid we still don't know anything. When the meeting is really held, I'm afraid the sky of the Republic of Seville will change."

Li Meng slightly opened the curtains and looked outside.

At some point, many escort vehicles appeared in front and behind the car.

After just one glance, Li Meng retracted his gaze, lowered the curtains, and said, "Don't hold large-scale meetings like this one in the future. Now is wartime. The enemy is trying every means to take your life. Don't give the enemy any chance. Being able to prevent it once does not mean you can prevent it a second time. If you can do it online, do it online. Gathering people together is creating opportunities for the enemy to kill them all."

With a wry smile on his face, Dio said, "It's still inexperienced. Before the Red Thunder Beast landed, the Republic of Seville had never experienced a war. Although there were several civil unrests, they all ended peacefully. This time, foreign forces participated, and everything became different. This made it difficult for us to adapt and passive everywhere."

Being able to realize his own shortcomings shows that Dio is not a pedantic person, but also a smart person.

Without saying much on this issue, Li Meng asked, "Where are you going this time?"

Dio said, "Everyone has gathered. This meeting must be held. It can only be postponed for a few days. When the situation is settled, the meeting can be reconvened. Go home, a temporary home, where it is safe."

Home?

On the city road, the convoy quickly went away and disappeared at the end of the street.

On the other side, in the Great Hall of the City Hall, the waiting dignitaries knew nothing about everything.

Time passed bit by bit, and the bomb disposal personnel were working hard at various places where explosives were installed in the City Hall.

No one knew when the bomb would explode. For those who knew the existence of the bomb, it was as if a knife was hanging over their heads that could be cut at any time. The oppressive atmosphere made it difficult to breathe.

"How is it?"

As the commander-in-chief of the National Defense Forces, Wood should have left, but he stayed.

In the basement, Wood came to the front line and asked an idle bomb disposal personnel.

There was a pillar not far ahead. It was the load-bearing pillar of the City Hall, and above it was the Great Hall.

At the top of the load-bearing pillar, a tied bomb could be seen with the naked eye.

The way of tying was very strange. It was tied with colorful wires. Cutting any wire might cause an explosion.

At the top of a ladder, a bomb disposal personnel wearing a thin shirt was dismantling the bomb.

Since he was on the ladder, he couldn't wear a heavy explosion-proof suit, so he could only wear a single layer of clothes and dismantle the bomb without protection.

The bomb was not small in size. Once it exploded, it would be useless even if he wore an explosion-proof suit.

Looking back at Wood, the bomb disposal personnel said: "The bomb is not very sophisticated, but it is troublesome to dismantle and it takes a lot of time. There are thirteen bombs in the basement, which is a very unlucky number. Seven have been dismantled. Explosives experts are studying their structure and power."

Wood looked down at the watch on his wrist. There were still seven minutes to ten o'clock...

Just as the time was approaching ten o'clock, in a house north of the city hall, several pairs of eyes were staring at the distant council hall.

The room was not dark, the lights were on, and a man stood in front of the window, holding a telescope and observing the distant council hall.

He was dressed very formally, in a black suit and had long golden hair to his shoulders.

Behind him, some people were sitting lazily on the sofa in the room.

"I say, captain, will they be fooled?"

Holding a big sword in his arms, Chen Li curled up on the sofa and asked.

His question made Zhang Lingfeng beside him say: "Everyone is afraid of death, let alone the president of a country."

The big man beside him grinned and said: "We, the Phantom Troupe, have always acted only for money, and have never acted for killing. Captain, are you planning to change your career?"

Pouting slightly, Chen Li said: "Who told us to owe a big favor to the Yamaguchi Group? This favor must be repaid."

"Click..."

Just then, the door was pushed open and Rachel walked in.

Seeing Rachel coming back, Sis in front of the window put down the telescope, turned around, and asked: "Rachel, who is he?"

Coming to Sis's side, looking at the political council in the distance, Rachel replied: "A little ghost, a client when I was working at Dilianwu, a big client, I didn't expect him to appear here."

Little ghost?

Chen Li laughed and said, "Rachel, how can a little kid enter the city hall? Are you scared?"

Rachel looked at Chen Li expressionlessly and did not refute.

At this time, Zhang Lingfeng said, "There is a little kid among the targets of the Yamaguchi-gumi. I heard that he is the representative of Black Flag City. Could it be him?"

When this was said, everyone was stunned. Could it be him?

Sis looked at Rachel, wanting to know the real answer from Rachel.

After thinking for a while, Rachel said, "It's possible, but I can't confirm it."
