Infinite Survival: The winner takes all!
Chapter 714 Game of Thrones
As soon as these words were spoken, there were exclamations of surprise in the conference hall, followed by more intense discussions that surged like a tide.
In fact, rumors about unexpected situations in the Security Council have long been circulating.
Otherwise, how could its five members disappear without a trace for ten years?
Even if it was understandable that he did not show up at other times, the safe zone suffered heavy losses in the super-large-scale demon siege eight years ago.
If the members of the Security Council had intervened at the time, perhaps the situation would not have deteriorated so much.
Now, Miao Qianqian, Minister of the Department of Resources Management, has personally come forward to confirm the matter. It seems that this news can no longer be covered up.
The Security Council encountered an unexpected event, which was a significant event for everyone involved.
However, given the current situation, the positive impact it brings seems to be more prominent, far outweighing the potential negative consequences.
"Minister Miao, could you please elaborate on what problems the Security Council is facing?" This question came from Xu Qingping, Minister of the War Command on the rostrum.
His eyes were sharp, staring at Miao Qianqian like a hawk, as if hoping to catch some clues from her expression.
Below the rostrum, someone in the crowd quickly responded, "Yes, the members of the Security Council have a profound impact on the future of the entire security zone."
"They have not been heard from for years and we have a right to know why."
Some people also murmured in a low voice, revealing dissatisfaction, "I'm afraid the problem did not arise now. They did not show up during the unprecedented demon siege eight years ago. Maybe something went wrong a long time ago."
"Minister Miao, since you have already laid the matter out in the open, please describe the entire situation in detail." On the rostrum, Jiang Yishi, director of the Intelligence and Reconnaissance Department, also joined the questioning.
One of his important deputies immediately echoed, "Minister Jiang is right. It is really unacceptable that our intelligence and reconnaissance department was kept in the dark."
With these people taking the lead, more people began to express their opinions. "That's right. We are all members of the safe zone. For such a serious matter, we should be transparent and not hide anything."
“The members of the Security Council are the strong backers of our safe zone. If they encounter any unexpected events, they should inform us in time so that we can make corresponding preparations.”
"..."
For a moment, the venue was filled with various questioning voices.
On the rostrum, the other four ministers who had not spoken yet frowned slightly, as if they were thinking about something.
Especially Bai Tongmeng, she glanced at Miao Qianqian beside her with a pair of inquiring eyes from time to time, secretly wondering in her heart, could it be that Li Ming and the others really had an accident?
Just then, "Dong Dong Dong..." a series of sounds of pounding the table were heard, causing the crowd that were talking to pause for a moment.
"Please be quiet!" Miao Qianqian glanced at the crowd below the stage, a hint of displeasure evident on her face.
Then, she took a deep breath and continued in a deep voice: "Members of the Security Council were only temporarily delayed due to certain matters. Nothing unexpected happened. Please don't make groundless speculations."
"Heh..." Xu Qingping, the head of the war command, sneered disdainfully, "Minister Miao, it was you who previously claimed that the Security Council had encountered an accident, and it is you who is now denying it."
"How can you make us believe that you are not deliberately covering up the truth?"
"Minister Xu Qingping, what do you mean?" Miao Qianqian suddenly turned her head, her tone revealing strong dissatisfaction and questioning.
She never expected that the first person to attack her would be Xu Yanbing's uncle.
If he had not relied on the special relationship with Xu Yanbing, how could he, an ordinary company captain, be qualified to sit in his current high position?
"I have no other intention. I just implore Minister Miao to disclose the truth honestly." Xu Qingping leaned leisurely on the soft leather chair and responded in a calm tone.
Bang! Miao Qianqian's slender palm slammed on the table, the sound was crisp and loud, "I have made it very clear just now, the members of the Security Council were just delayed by certain affairs, and did not encounter any misfortune!"
“In addition, I have not convened you today to discuss Security Council matters, but to expose two extremely heinous incidents.”
At this point, her tone was filled with uncontrollable anger. "According to the intelligence we recently obtained, some of our senior officials in the Second Ring Road have actually ordered their subordinates to do something so cruel."
"Kidnapped a large number of young women from the Fifth and Fourth Ring Roads, and turned them into female slaves to satisfy their own desires!"
"What's even more shocking is that the money paid for these dirty deals is actually precious energy potions! This is enough to show that there is a huge human manipulation factor behind the so-called energy potion shortage problem!"
"Today, I must find these scumbags and punish them severely. I will not show any leniency!"
However, what was surprising was that after Miao Qianqian's impassioned speech, neither the minister on the podium nor the 25 audience members below showed any noticeable change in expression.
One could even detect an indescribable indifference in their eyes.
Miao Qianqian was stunned for a moment. She swallowed subconsciously and looked at the people in front of her with disbelief who had no reaction, especially considering that there were nine women among the participants.
Bai Tongmeng sighed softly in her heart, turned her gaze to the dazed woman next to her, and a hint of pity inadvertently flashed in her eyes.
That's not how politics works.
Kidnapping some women from the outer ring area to serve as slaves may seem like a very bad thing on the surface, but in reality it is just that simple.
Of course, in the game of thrones, this kind of thing can indeed be used as a bargaining chip to strike at opponents and consolidate one's own position.
However, such actions must be communicated to all parties in advance to ensure that each party can obtain corresponding benefits from them.
Only in this way can we get support and assistance from the venue at the critical moment.
As for the issue of corruption in energy potions, this is a sensitive topic that cannot be discussed publicly.
Because everyone here has benefited from the energy retention potion to some extent.
If anyone dares to get to the bottom of the energy potion corruption, unless he gets the firm support of the Security Council members, it would be tantamount to standing against everyone and would inevitably face isolation and helplessness.
But unfortunately, the members of the Security Council have been missing for ten years, and the little deterrent power they had left was completely lost because of Miao Qianqian's words and actions just now.
As expected, Jiang Yishi, the head of the Intelligence and Reconnaissance Department, was the first to raise questions, "Minister Miao Qianqian, any accusation must be supported by solid evidence."
"The so-called terrible incident you just revealed, isn't it just a rumor you heard from others?"
He paused and continued, "At least up to now, our Intelligence Reconnaissance Department has not received any clues or intelligence related to this."
