Dawn of a New Era-Chapter 584 - 558: Assassination

Outskirts of the new district, Capital City, Great Xia Country.

A rare black car post-mutant event, passed through several checkpoints, slowly drove into an underground defense base 300 meters deep, capable of withstanding nuclear bomb attacks.

This is the wartime supreme authority organization — the Supreme Military Authority Committee location.

Director of the Security Bureau, Zhao Feiming, pushed open the car door and got out, walking quickly with a stern face towards the depths of the base.

Soon, he stood before the President’s office, took a deep breath, and gently knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

Zhao Feiming pushed open the door: "Mr. President..."

"What’s the situation?" The President asked without lifting his head from the documents.

"Only one is left, suspected to be Central Asian, the rest of the assassins escaped." Zhao Feiming swallowed nervously.

The President continued reviewing the documents, the only sound in the office was the scratch of the pen tip on paper.

The atmosphere was silent for a long time.

Cold sweat began to pour from Zhao Feiming’s forehead.

A few seconds later, the President finally put down the documents and said in a deep voice:

"What are all of you doing here, this is the Capital. This is the nation’s capital, all resources are prioritized for supply here.

With so many people in Security, so many strong individuals, you still can’t catch a few assassins, how can you ensure the safety of the Capital?"

This incident was extremely serious and of an extremely vile nature.

During a morning inspection, the convoy was actually attacked by cult members, fortunately, it was just a decoy target, and the convoy only contained his body double, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable, the entire Great Xia Country would be plunged into chaos for a while.

"These people are...strong, two might even be... legendary warriors." Zhao Feiming said under pressure, with difficulty.

Legendary warriors in such a densely populated city, if they want to escape, are almost impossible to catch or kill.

In the entire Security Bureau, the strongest is just a peak Martial Artist, not a single legendary warrior.

The President’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this and asked, "Central Asians?"

"We suspect these people come from the God of Light from the northwest!" Zhao Feiming said: "The European Union obviously leaked the information on purpose!"

"That’s obvious!" The President said in a deep voice.

Between nations, there is no true friendship, allies are meant to be betrayed.

In fact, it cannot be concealed, just a week ago.

Great Xia Country’s military had already begun mobilizing, gathering towards the northwest border, this situation, as long as you’re not ignorant, you can notice.

The simplest way to create chaos in a country is undoubtedly to assassinate the nation’s leader.

These people clearly came with that goal in mind.

"Now the situation is very dangerous, the award ceremony in three days, perhaps you should..." Zhao Feiming carefully suggested.

"No, I will go personally!" The President interrupted decisively.

He had long wanted to meet this strongest person among humanity, to communicate their thoughts openly like friends.

This nation cannot withstand turmoil.

We must unite all forces that can be united, and General Manager Chen’s attitude has already reached the height of affecting national strategic security.

"Moreover, with General Manager Chen present, should I still worry about safety?" The President looked at Zhao Feiming and said. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Zhao Feiming was taken aback, as if realizing the same.

To General Manager Chen, who can kill a True God, two legends and a group of martial artists are just like swatting some bugs—an effortless task.

He now even hoped that this group of people indeed hurried their approach, so they could capture them all in one fell swoop and relieve himself of this immense pressure.

...

In the evening, a helicopter slowly took off from the Provincial Government Building plaza in Hedong City, flying towards the distance.

Zhang Miaomiao looked a bit nervous, she had ridden in cars, trains, and airplanes, but it was her first time on a military helicopter. The loud noise and constant vibration made her feel really unsafe.

But seeing Chen Shouyi’s calm demeanor, she couldn’t help but feel at ease.

Hesitating for a while, she bit her lip and took out a new notebook she had prepared for a long time from her bag, shyly saying, "General Manager Chen, could you... sign it for me again?"

Chen Shouyi was taken aback.

Didn’t he sign it last time, why another one?

But he didn’t mind, he had never been resistant to signing autographs for others. He happily took the notebook and pen, asking, "What blessing do you want?"

"Wish me to be young and beautiful again!" Zhang Miaomiao whispered, her face reddening, feeling somewhat inexplicably ashamed.

The effect last time was very good, her skin became tender and taut, full of vitality, but unfortunately, the effect didn’t last long, only two or three days before returning completely to how it was before, leaving her forlorn.

Chen Shouyi: ...

Heh, women!

He had seen through it long ago.

Then let you be pretty enough for once!

Chen Shouyi thought, then slightly gathered his will, the air immediately made a buzzing sound, tiny sparks of static flashed around with crackling noise, he concentrated his thoughts, waved his pen widely.

Just then, he suddenly heard a suppressed yet thin as a flute moan.

Chen Shouyi turned his head strangely and opened his mouth involuntarily.

He saw that Zhang Miaomiao’s entire body appeared astonishingly flushed, her eyes glazed, lying limp against the backrest, her body still trembling intermittently.

Was it too forceful?

Wouldn’t it cause a problem?

"Director Zhang! Director Zhang!" Chen Shouyi quickly said: "Are you okay?"

It took several calls for Zhang Miaomiao to recover from the intense pleasure, looking at Chen Shouyi with shame, her face unbearably flushed as if about to burst into steam: "I...I’m okay?"

Unexpectedly, she just... lost composure.

"That’s good, I thought something happened to you?" Chen Shouyi breathed a sigh of relief, seemed like he should take it easy when signing. Ordinary people can’t bear such blessings.

He paused, continued: "Your body is a bit weak."

Even Zhang Miaomiao in embarrassment and disbelief, couldn’t help but feel powerless to retort. She had the strength of a Martial Artist Apprentice, didn’t she? Of course, compared to this person, even Martial Artists would seem fragile!

...

The helicopter flew all the way.

As dawn approached, it finally landed slowly at a military camp on the outskirts of Capital City, and soon a special vehicle took both of them to a hostel where they had stayed last time.

...

The news of Chen Shouyi coming to Capital City for a commendation was not deliberately hidden and had long spread.

At the hostel entrance, stationed soldiers stared tightly outside, their faces tense like facing a great enemy.

A large number of foreigners of different skin colors were carrying old-fashioned video cameras or cameras, squatting or standing outside. This situation had persisted for two days. If it weren’t for the curfew now, they might have camped outside at night.

These people were mainly journalists from various countries, though many were also doing intelligence gathering on the side.

Compared to other ordinary Great Xia Country news, God Chen was evidently more of a blockbuster, not only did the higher-ups pay attention, but the people also liked to watch. Just a brief appearance or a few words would be enough for them to embellish and write several news articles.

In this era of war, there were no global superstars, if there were, it would undoubtedly be God Chen!
