At the same time, when the aircraft from the "upper level" landed high above the base, all the officers stopped their work and went to greet it.

The people who came down from the carrier included not only soldiers and guards, but also people in charge sent by several upper-level forces.

When they saw the officers waiting on the ground, the one walking in the middle asked in a tired tone, "Where are the people? Take us over to see them now."

The person being questioned was naturally the murderer.

"His injuries were too severe. We were not aware of this happening before the interrogation. We used extreme methods to allow him to answer temporarily. Now..."

It's completely cold.

"Pig brain!" A young man who looked to be around twenty years old scolded.

Although the reprimanded officer was dissatisfied in his heart, he bowed his head respectfully and admitted his mistake.

"Why blame him? It's just a normal process, and he can't predict the future." Someone spoke up to help.

Hearing this, the man turned to look at him and sneered, "Why are you pretending to be a good guy again? Everyone knows that this technology was developed by you. If you want to be held accountable, I don't think you can escape it."

"Alright, stop arguing. Didn't you call Xiaoyue because you knew he wouldn't survive? With her around, even the dead can speak. Why rush?"

The tired-looking middle-aged man who spoke first stopped the quarrel. He knew in his heart that the two were not really quarreling. It was more of a habitual confrontation, or just a pretense of statement. After all, the relationship between the forces behind them was not harmonious.

The middle-aged man was wearing a white and gold robe with a golden lotus embroidered on one side of the collar and a candle on the other.

That is the symbol of Guangmingyuan.

Although the people walking in the middle are wearing different clothes, they can all find a lotus as a symbol in a certain position. In addition, there are also symbols representing their own forces.

For example, the young man who scolded the officer had a golden scale on the back of his shirt. One side of the scale was full of gold coins, and the other side was empty, but the scale remained balanced.

This stands for [Fixing Consortium]. The origin of the consortium’s name is no secret. The founder claims that “in the future, even the price of stars can be determined by us.”

The man who was arguing with him had an exquisite heavy hammer pattern on his sleeve. The hammer body was black and the handle looked like magma. It was obviously the [Heavy Industry of the Gods].

In addition, the "Xiao Yue" mentioned by the leader of Guangmingyuan is the girl who has been standing by silently. She looks quite young, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She is wearing what looks like a school uniform, with a metal badge on her chest with a light pink heart engraved on it. When light shines on it, the patterns on the badge flow as if the heart is beating slightly, making it clear at a glance that this girl is from the [Tianxin Society].

The grudge between the consortium and the Gods Heavy Industry has been going on for a long time, so long that it is difficult to trace back what caused the conflict. It seems that they had an unpleasantness over the snatching of an extraordinary item. Most of the guys in the Gods Heavy Industry have different brains from normal people and don't really understand how to write the word "decent".

After being defeated by the consortium once, they secretly tried to make trouble for the consortium, but their methods were not very good, and people could tell at a glance that it was them who did it. In short, over time, the two families developed a grudge and still dislike each other until now.

One side thinks that the other side is a rude and impolite craftsman who does not know how to write properly and has a problem with his brain. The other side thinks that the other side is a shameless businessman who is full of the smell of money, has a head full of sinister ideas and wants money.

Even if members of two organizations meet each other, they will inevitably have a few words.

In fact, they cannot be considered the most "elite" group in each organization, but because the incident happened suddenly, they had to get to the bottom level as soon as possible, so their choices were limited. In addition, there were also games at various levels, and in the end, this job fell on them.

"How long will it take for the council members to arrive?"

In this world, there are no "countries" but only "cities". Each city is extremely large. As an independent and autonomous political collective, the city does not have an emperor-like person like the "city lord". The "parliament" is the political system that each city has. Among them, the chairman of the parliament has the greatest power and is in a sense comparable to the "city lord". The Senate and the House of Commons serve as auxiliary institutions to share the chairman's worries.

But the parliament does not have the final say in the city. Under the checks and balances of various forces, the parliament can only be regarded as the boss of its own city. However, whether it is the Guangming Academy, the Tianxin Society, or the Gods Heavy Industry, these organizations do not only exist in one city. Even the Dingxing Consortium is a super consortium spanning various cities.

Therefore, the Parliament may sometimes find itself stretched when faced with these super organizations.

The political system of every city is complex, and the undercurrents within it are also quite dangerous. Now, traces of the [Cup] that has disappeared for a hundred years have been found at the bottom of their own city. This will not only cause a shock within their own city, but once it is known to other cities, the problem will probably be even bigger!

At this time, the parliamentarians were still so slow to arrive. What on earth were they thinking?!

"Humph, those guys in the parliament are always like this, dilatory and timid!"

The young man from the consortium seems to dislike everyone, and he has the confidence to do so. With Dingxing Consortium as his backer, no one dares to do anything to him even if he lives a little arrogantly.

“Beep beep.”

Someone's communicator rang.

The middle-aged man from Guangmingyuan, who was in the lead, clicked on the communicator on his wrist and read the message. He then said in surprise, "Someone from the Council sent a message saying they will be an hour late. Please wait."

"You're so arrogant! Don't you realize what the emergency is?" The young man from the consortium snorted coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man added in a playful tone: "They are from the House of Lords."

".ha?!"

Except for the young man, everyone else also looked sideways with a look of surprise.

In this city, the two-chamber parliamentary system is simply that the upper house is larger than the lower house. The chairman has always been on the top floor. The second and third floors are the upper districts, where the upper house is established. Talents are almost all selected from the upper districts. Only the top talents from other districts can be selected into the upper house by exception.

The fourth and fifth floors are the middle-level areas of the city, and the lower house mainly governs them, as well as the lower city areas on the sixth and seventh floors. Although the lower house manages more floors, in terms of power, the upper house is undoubtedly more powerful.

Almost all of them came from the downtown area in order to save time. In the end, this matter would definitely not be handled by people from the downtown area alone, but time was everything at the moment, and they had to take the fastest measures to obtain the most information.

"What's wrong with the council? They'd rather delay than wait for their people to arrive?"

Almost everyone is asking this question in their mind, what is the madness of the parliament?

Is it just to suppress them?

But is now the time to do so?

"Ignore them. Time is running out. This matter is of great importance and cannot be delayed. Who knows what might happen?"

Almost the next second, someone suggested this.

The young man from the consortium thought for a moment before agreeing, "I agree."

No matter what the parliament wants to do, whether it is simply crazy or planning something, it is necessary to immediately confirm the authenticity of this matter and find out the reason.

As for "violating the protest order", there will be plenty of reasons to shirk responsibility when the time comes!
