Chapter 18 - 18. Huiyue City, emergency meeting!

Huiyue City Conference Center.

At this moment, the Huiyue City Conference Center was filled with all of Huiyue City's senior management, but only one seat was occupied by an absentee.

" What is Sun Hu doing? He's even skipping a meeting of this level. Does the last incident make him think he can defy the Empire?"

A Bald Head sitting to the side!

He lit a cigar to express his frustration!

" Minister Sun is currently leading a team to the Underground City for rescue operations. He doesn't need to attend this meeting. Everyone should be here by now. Let's begin."

The mayor's sudden words dispelled everyone's concerns.

"I believe everyone is aware of the general situation," the mayor continued. "According to the latest news from the Detection Department, the entire Underground City has begun to collapse. At this rate, the entire Underground City will be reduced to ruins in less than an hour."

"Mayor, what happened? Why did Underground City collapse? Could it be that some unrecorded monster has appeared?"

The Minister of Education then asked.

"No, there are no unrecorded monsters."

"According to Minister Sun's speculation, a Supreme Expert appeared in the Underground City and used a Forbidden Spell- level technique. The entire Underground City could not withstand the Forbidden Spell, which is why it collapsed."

Listen to what the mayor says!

Everyone fell silent instantly.

Bald Head threw his cigar into the ashtray and slammed it heavily on the table. "A Supreme-level expert, another Supreme-level expert. Do these guys have nothing better to do?"

"What are you always acting so tough in Huiyue City? If you're so capable, go and make a scene in the capital. The last incident caused us enormous losses. Just repairing the Wall of Life alone has already strained our finance department."

That's right!

This is Bald Head!

The Finance Minister of Huiyue City, who holds the power over finances!

If we were to ask who would be the most distressed in Huiyue City in this situation, probably no one would be more troubled than him.

"That's right. These two incidents alone have already caused Huiyue City a lot of trouble. Moreover, it's currently the peak period for students to awaken their professionalism. I suspect that someone may be causing trouble."

The Minister of Education said in a deep voice.

The mayor was also feeling a headache. These powerful figures didn't cause trouble anywhere else, but they insisted on coming to Huiyue City to cause trouble, which was a very serious blow to the overall development of Huiyue City.

The Minister of Public Security said, "Mayor, after these two incidents, the panic among citizens has accumulated to a great extent, and we must take this matter seriously."

"If we continue to allow these supreme-level powerhouses to run rampant, the citizens of Huiyue City will no longer trust us."

"That sounds nice," the finance minister rolled his eyes and said, "That's a supreme-level expert. Right now, the strongest one recorded in Huiyue City is probably a level 58 diamond expert."

"I know you, as the Minister of Public Security, are determined to stop them, but we should always consider our actual situation."

"It seems that before our people even met them, they had already cleaned up the Forbidden Spell."

"You've seen it for yourself both times. Last time, the Wall of Life was destroyed, and this time the entire Underground City was blown up."

"That's a supreme-level expert, let's be realistic!"

In response to the finance minister's words, the security minister angrily retorted, "Are we just going to sit idly by and do nothing?"

"You think your finance department is under a lot of public pressure right now? Our security department is no worse than yours. If we don't organize something soon, Huiyue City will face an unprecedented brain drain!"

Listening to the two ministers, the Minister of Education also said, "Mayor, we absolutely cannot sit idly by in this situation."

"If this is the last time, that's fine. But what if that Supreme Expert continues to cause trouble in Huiyue City? If we let it go, he'll think we're easy to bully and will definitely take action again and again."

" Huiyue City can no longer withstand this kind of disruption from them."

Faced with pressure from all sides, the mayor also found it difficult to make a decision, saying, "We must manage this. Otherwise, the citizens will think that we collect their taxes but do nothing for them."

" Although Huiyue City may not have any strong individuals, we absolutely cannot allow him to continue to act recklessly."

"How about this, I'll contact the Empire and let them know what they can do."

"That's all we can do."

Everyone sighed.

In this situation!

The higher-ups in Huiyue City could only report this to the Empire!

If they still can't find a solution, then they can only let others shout at them.

A short while later!

The mayor's secretary then connected the phone with the Empire.

"Secretary-General Shangguan, I am Nan Tian, Mayor of Huiyue City."

A strong, clear voice came from the other end of the line: "Hello, Mayor Nan, what can I do for you?"

The mayor quickly said:

" Huiyue City is currently under attack by a supreme-level expert, and the entire city is in chaos."

...

Nan Tian's simple and convenient method!

The two incidents have been reported!

"Therefore, we held a high-level meeting in Huiyue City and finally decided to apply to the Empire for a Supreme-level expert to come to Huiyue City to conduct an investigation."

"With the fighting strength of Huiyue City alone, we simply do not have the ability to conduct an in-depth investigation, so we can only place our hopes on the Empire."

Upon hearing Nan Tian's words, the person on the other end of the phone fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

"Mayor Nan, I will inform them immediately. The Empire will not give up any territory under its jurisdiction, and naturally it will not give up Huiyue City."

"The Empire will not allow anyone to run rampant on our territory, even if he is a supreme-level powerhouse."

"Please trust the Empire, Mayor. The Empire will soon send an investigation team led by a Supreme-level expert to Huiyue City. They will definitely help Mayor Nan resolve these troubles."

Hearing this!

The senior executives in the conference room became excited.

With the Empire's guarantee, Huiyue City could have hope.

At that moment, everyone stood up simultaneously, placing their right fists on their chests.

"We swear to serve the Empire to the death!"

Shortly after, a voice came from the other end of the phone, "We swear to serve the Empire to the death!"

Then!

The call was then disconnected!

The mayor then waved his hand and said:

"All departments, begin preparing disaster statistics. Any personnel with free time should go to support the rescue efforts in Underground City immediately."

"We will never abandon any Huiyue City resident."

"Yes!" the senior executives replied in unison, and then hurriedly left to prepare for the next task.

But for Huiyue City!

This is their most difficult time.
