News That Changed the Situation
Zhang Xuezhou and others' estimates were correct.
Even large, heavy, and rough instruments will wear out. Branpeda's communication system was already very sophisticated, but it couldn't withstand the damage caused by the cooling system not working for a long time.
Less than a few hours after delivering his televised address, Zhang Xuezhou noticed that the signal strength on his communicator had dropped to zero.
If the central control hub is broken, even if there are small base stations nearby, it won't be of much use.
"The only way to ensure the smooth implementation of government orders right now is through force. Pozier needs to deploy his guards and rely on them to forcibly conscript civil servants within his jurisdiction before restoring order!"
The logic of global competition has changed. Major countries that are moving towards the unification of continental plates have drastically reduced their armies, with only security forces, private militias, and other similar groups remaining.
The Brampeda city security force consists of a headquarters and detachments, involving more than 20,000 people.
The headquarters consists entirely of Sequence Holder, while the branch teams are composed of some Sequence Holder, sequencers, and ordinary guards.
The limited number of people was insufficient to manage a chaotic city of over seven million, let alone stop the chaos and get people back to their jobs immediately.
The collapse of services such as communications and healthcare has caused even greater problems.
The civil war has temporarily ceased, but social order cannot be restored simply by the two sides sitting down; everything requires people to maintain and operate it.
During the extraordinary session of parliament, many members of parliament frequently offered feasible suggestions.
Zhang Xuezhou, who had switched to digital signals to deliver his speech to the parliament, felt much more relaxed.
He could see the changes in Grian as a whole, and the Condensing Banner was taking effect.
This proves that Zhang Xuezhou's arrangements have worked, and the entire verification process is now halfway complete.
As long as the test results in the destruction of the Aomeijia Alliance, and then Grean is sacrificed to the heavens, the war can be won.
"I wonder what the conversion rate will be!"
Grean was surrounded by a golden aura of fortune, but this aura was very weak, far from meeting the level Zhang Xuezhou needed.
Perhaps it requires the new Aomeijia Alliance political harmony and social stability, or perhaps it requires a certain amount of time to settle down. Zhang Xuezhou observed back and forth, and also kept thinking about the tests of condensing and seizing fortune.
"Committee Member Zhang, the longer we delay treatment, the worse it will be for us. When can we begin treatment?"
The medical technology of the Aomeijia Alliance is similar to that of the Scarlet Alliance State, and those Sequence Holder are treated with medical programs such as X432 or X436.
Minor injuries are fine, but serious injuries that break bones and tendons require a long recovery period and will inevitably leave some hidden dangers.
There is still no effective treatment for injuries that damage the resistance layer; the only option is to rely on the self-healing abilities of the Sequence Holder ' bodies.
Montes Clark glanced at Montes Steel, who was egging him on, and could only ask Zhang Xuezhou in a low voice.
As soon as she began her question, many of the members of parliament who had previously discussed post-war recovery and stability immediately perked up their ears, and even those who had been discussing the issue lowered their voices by a third.
"I suggest you all receive initial treatment to stabilize your injuries in the Aomeijia Alliance first," Zhang Xuezhou said. "Our medical facilities are better there, but the fees are also higher. If you want to seek medical treatment, you'll need to go to Western Capital City, which is quite a long way!"
"Can it really heal?" Montessler couldn't help but ask, "My injuries are quite serious!"
"If we didn't have a stable healthcare system, do you think we, the Scarlet Alliance State, would be so foolish as to fight to the death on Alliance Island?" Zhang Xuezhou laughed. "What you should be worried about is the cost of medical care. Of course, that might not be a big problem for you. It just so happens that your Alliance States needs to set a cap on Lineage wealth. Transferring the excess to our Alliance States wouldn't be a bad solution!"
"How much will it cost?" Montes Clark asked in a deep voice.
"Lord Badun, of the Eighth Sequence, paid 30,000 vials of blood serum and five portions of each of the fourteen kinds of ferocious beast extracts in exchange for the opportunity to receive treatment," Zhang Xuezhou said, looking at him. "His sequence level is a notch higher, and the medical costs he requires are more than ten times greater than yours. You should be able to roughly estimate what you will need to pay!"
"This... this..."
During the fierce battle, Montes Clark repeatedly called out to Zhang Xuezhou and the others, to which Zhang Xuezhou responded that he didn't care about such things at all.
Only now does Montes Clark know how much Arthur paid and what he received in return for those payments.
If such a high price were paid on any other person, they would be better off dead, but it has no problem being paid on Badun.
Not only did she not object, but even Silva and others who had previously instigated the rebellion thought it was normal.
Of course, this news also greatly spurred Silva and others.
Many people exchanged glances, feeling that they needed to quickly transfer their assets to ensure their safety.
If they wait for Badun to recover from his injuries and return, it will be impossible for them to maintain the current peaceful situation.
This news even made people stop envying Grien.
Sitting in the chairman's seat, Grean's face was also pale. Badun, who had ruled the parliament for decades, obviously had enough prestige, while he had blindly followed the lead of others and lacked sufficient vested interests, so his backing was not very stable.
Even if he is willing to hand over the chairmanship of the Grand Council in the future, it is hard to say whether it will be peaceful or violent.
"I don't understand, how much should we pay?" Montessler asked.
"Your family isn't wealthy, so give whatever you can afford, and see if they'll arrange treatment for you!"
Montes Clark frowned and spoke in low voices.
There are no fixed prices between countries, or between high-level officials; interests are only exchanged when it is mutually agreeable.
Treating Montes Badun is worth the price, but how much Montes Steel thinks his injuries deserve, how much the Scarlet Alliance State thinks should be charged, and whether they would treat an international competitor like Montes Steel are other matters entirely.
Zhang Xuezhou gave an example and then released a major piece of news.
This news dispelled Montes Clark's confusion, leading him to decide to invest heavily in his health, while also casting a shadow over the faces of Silva and the others.
Many people are well aware that this forcibly bound parliament will fall apart after today, and the money, resources, and talent of the Aomeijia Alliance will flow into the Scarlet Alliance State.
This was not only a matter of treating physical needs, but also a necessary preparation to avoid future retribution, and they also needed to surrender.
Without absolute sincerity, how could the Scarlet Alliance State allow dozens or even hundreds of high- Sequence Holder to reside in Western Capital City?
"Committee Member Zhang, I heard that you've built a Twilight Years Mansion in Western Capital City, that residence..."
Oeruo, who was closer to Zhang Xuezhou, moved his chair back and moved closer to Zhang Xuezhou to inquire about various matters concerning the Twilight Years Mansion.
If the policy of the Twilight Years Mansion were implemented in Brampeda, Orro would undoubtedly be a strong advocate for it, and would certainly not allow himself to be locked in an iron cage like a ferocious beast, deprived of his freedom.
However, there is absolutely no problem with surrendering to the Scarlet Alliance State and following the rules.
He didn't know why he had suddenly become so understanding; in any case, Orro didn't have any particular aversion to the Twilight Years Mansion in Western Capital City.
If the Scarlet Alliance State is willing to take him in and can heal his injuries, Orr believes he can move in the day the negotiations are completed.
His face was full of obsequiousness and ingratiation, and many rebel members were also listening in.
This situation made Montes Clark feel like he was going to explode with rage. He felt that these people were cracking down hard internally, but were meek and subservient to outsiders. It was also very obvious that they were planning to abandon the mess that Aomeijia Alliance and run away.
How did our country become like this?
No matter how much damage or destruction occurs in a civil war, it's all within the domestic cycle. But taking heavy assets out of the country is a different matter altogether.
Montes Clark was powerless to stop it all; she only felt that the Aomeijia Alliance was heading in the wrong direction.
