Chapter 201: When the Emperor is Furious, Blood Flows Like a River
Under Shen Han's orders, Peng Le and Lu Bao, leading the personnel from the materials collection unit, swiftly exited the shelter. Simultaneously, the parliamentarians scattered, gathering all the people within the shelter and assembling them on the playground outside the command center.
The entrance of the command center was filled with soldiers under Gu's command. Snipers on the hilltop held sniper rifles and heavy machine guns, vigilantly observing.
Witnessing such a large military presence, panic spread instantly among the shelter's civilians. Everyone huddled together, trembling in fear, unsure of what was happening.
The atmosphere of panic quickly spread through the crowd. Shen Xudong stood on the podium with a confident and imposing demeanor, loudly addressing the assembled civilians.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Today is an important day! It's the day when the criminal Alex faces judgment!"
"Anyone daring to challenge the authority of the parliament will face the most severe and bloody judgment!"
After speaking, Shen Xudong waved his hand dramatically, gesturing with authority, and shouted,
"Men, bring Alex out for me!"
Other parliamentarians were equally fiery, staring at the command center's doors with intense determination. Before long, the doors slowly opened.
Alex strolled out of the command center, accompanied by Gu's personal guards. Despite the imposing display before him, Alex's face remained calm, wearing only a faint, contemptuous smile.
"Alex, the criminal! Do you recognize your crimes?" An elderly parliamentarian, full of fervor and righteousness, stepped forward, trembling as he pointed at Alex and sternly questioned him.
Alex disdainfully glanced at them, sneering, "What's the meaning of this? Such a grand spectacle, what do you intend to do?"
"What do we intend to do? At the brink of death, you still don't understand?" A parliamentarian shouted sternly, his face filled with an air of authority, resembling a judge with great power, exuding a fierce aura.
"Criminal Alex! You attempted to overthrow the parliament, acted autocratically, and at the brink of death, you won't kneel down and admit your guilt?"
"Kneel down!"
"Kneel down!"
"Kneel down and accept death!"
Several parliamentarians loudly demanded.
With formidable squads surrounding them, these parliamentarians were now brimming with confidence, standing tall with a dignified and imposing demeanor. It was a stark contrast to the previous scenes of enduring humiliation and bowing in submission.
The current group of parliamentarians was full of vigor, passion, and a sense of accomplishment. Their faces radiated pride and authority.
Looking at the well-equipped elite warriors surrounding them, these parliamentarians believed that Alex was already as good as dead. The entire shelter was now under their control.
To them, Alex was a fish in a barrel. No matter how capable he might be, there was no chance of escape.
"Criminal Alex, I, Shen Xudong, in the name of the highest speaker of the parliament, declare your death sentence! Men, take down Alex for me!"
Holding a microphone, Shen Xudong passionately and loudly gave the order.
With Shen Xudong's command, hidden assassins, led by Wang Zhen and Xiao Dong, swiftly emerged, charging toward Alex's location.
As the soldiers from the City Defense Unit, stationed both behind and around Alex, raised their weapons, relief washed over the parliamentarians. Each of them wore a triumphant smile, releasing laughter that had been suppressed for too long.
Triumph!
Exhilarating!
Satisfying!
Alex was thoroughly surrounded! No matter how skilled he was, there was no way he could escape!
The parliamentarians couldn't contain their laughter. Meanwhile, the citizens below couldn't help but gasp, anticipating the upcoming scenes, their bodies shivering in fear.
For them, such power struggles were no longer a surprise. Yet, it was regrettable that a hero like Alex wouldn't meet his heroic end in the war against zombies but instead fall victim to a plot from within his own ranks.
Countless civilians closed their eyes in pain.
The assassins, with incredible speed, were about to reach Alex and execute him on the spot. However, at that moment, the soldiers behind and around Alex suddenly pulled their triggers. The barrage of bullets wasn't directed at Alex but rather at the assassins!
Bang, bang, bang! A series of intense gunfire erupted. Wang Zhen and Xiao Dong, who were at the forefront without hesitation, widened their eyes in terror. The hail of bullets, like raindrops, rained down relentlessly.
"No!!!!"
In an instant, the seven assassins were turned into sieves.
Confusion!
Staring at the sudden turn of events, everyone present was stunned.
The parliamentarians, with their mouths agape, looked at the unexpected turn of events, each of them dumbfounded. What was happening? Weren't these soldiers supposed to be the trusted subordinates of Ge and Shen Han? What were they doing? Why weren't they following the agreed-upon plan?
"Wrong target!! Damn it, all of you shoot Alex!!" Shen Xudong shouted into the microphone, still unable to accept the situation, thinking that the soldiers had mistakenly followed the wrong orders.
At this point, he couldn't comprehend what was happening and believed that the soldiers had misunderstood the commands.
Alex, with a mocking smile, approached the bewildered parliamentarians while commenting, "Are you trying to kill me? Creating such a spectacle just to kill me? It truly surprises me!"
Without warning, Alex reached out, grabbed a trembling old parliamentarian beside him, snapped his neck, and casually tossed him to the ground.
"Shen Xudong, I initially didn't want to kill you. After all, you've done some work for me. But I didn't expect you to play with fire and even self-proclaim as the so-called first chairman. Do you really think, with your bunch of fools, you can stir up any storm against me?"
"Gu! Han! What are you two waiting for? Give the order to attack!!" Shen Xudong, terrified and trembling, shouted as he crawled backward.
Up to this point, he still couldn't grasp what had happened. Their plan had seemingly succeeded!
At this moment, Shen Han and Gu finally took action.
Shen Han unsheathed a military knife, expressionless, and walked to the platform. With a single thrust, she pierced Shen Xudong's heart. Then, in a gruesome and bloody act, she ruthlessly severed her father's head and tossed it into the crowd.
On the other hand, Gu, with an icy demeanor, directly grabbed nearby parliamentarians, one by one, stabbing them through.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!" The soldiers who were originally standing motionless around all drew their steel knives from their waists, advancing towards the parliamentarians with cold and predatory expressions.
Alex ascended the platform, placing his foot on Shen Xudong's grotesque and wide-eyed head. With a slight upward curve at the corner of his mouth, he coldly glanced at Guangbei Jia, who had collapsed in fear on the ground, and the numerous civilians below. He then sneered, "From today onwards, everyone in this shelter is my servant.
Anyone daring to have ill intentions or disobey my orders will meet the same fate as them!"
Having said that, Alex turned around without a second glance and walked confidently towards the command center.
