Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

These people were talking amongst themselves...

Nie Bing nodded to them and then said, "Gentlemen, you are right. Although they have robots, you can see the difference between these robots and ours..."

"Their robots are no match for our Iron Guard robots! Their attacks are doomed to failure!"

"I will make them pay! We were able to drive them away this time, and we certainly will next time... From this incident, we can see that they are indeed becoming restless in East Asia... We must unite even more and show them the unity of our Western alliance..."

After Nie Bing said that, everyone nodded in agreement and then chimed in.

"That's right, that beast! A demon!!"

"Does he think he can conquer the West with these steel monsters?!"

"This is an insult to our entire Western world! War! We must have war!"

"President! Please give the order, and we will immediately assemble a large army to conquer East Asia and crush the Xiao Kingdom!"

Public outrage was palpable! Fear quickly transformed into overwhelming rage and a shared hatred under the weight of irrefutable evidence.

Kings and chieftains, no matter how much ulterior motives they may have had towards the alliance...

At this moment, spurred by Nie Bing's assassination and Xiao Ce's robots invading their home, everyone was fired up...

Unity driven by primal anger and fear...

Ed White stood in the crowd, his deep gaze sweeping over the three remains, then fixed on Nie Bing on the stage, who resembled a goddess of rage, and on Victor King, whose face was grim and who seemed ready to go through fire and water for the chairman at any moment...

The seeds of doubt in his heart had not completely disappeared. Why would Xiao Ce go to such lengths to assassinate him?

This seemed out of character for his usual restraint and strategic planning, but the evidence before him was simply too compelling, and Nie Bing and Viktor King's performance was flawless.

Faced with overwhelming public opinion and irrefutable evidence, he wisely chose to remain silent, even displaying an expression of anger and determination on his face at opportune moments.

He knew very well that questioning the chairman at this moment would be tantamount to making an enemy of the entire West.

At this moment, Ed White's behavior was also being observed by Nie Bing and Victor King.

Looking at the furious scene below the stage, Nie Bing felt a chill in her heart, yet also a sense of control as her plan progressed smoothly.

As for Ed White's reaction, she wasn't surprised at all; his reaction only proved that he was a smart man.

Working with smart people can make things much simpler.

She now understands perfectly well that all she needs to do is continue acting.

She raised her hand, suppressing the commotion once more, her voice carrying a sense of tragic resolve:

"I share your anger! Xiao Ce's ambition is crystal clear! Does he think that by destroying me, he can destroy the Western Alliance? Does he think that with these cold machines, he can enslave our glorious Western world? Dream on!"

Her voice suddenly rose, filled with indomitable fighting spirit: "Last night, our army, our Iron Guard, proved his arrogance! Today, we will use even greater power to tell him that the West will never yield!"

"Victor King!"

“Your subordinate is here!” Victor King stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and said in a loud voice.

"I hereby order you to immediately place the Western Alliance on Level One alert! All member states must, within thirty days, ensure that the promised troops and supplies are in place to the highest standards! The Alliance's standing army shall be placed on high alert, strengthening the defenses of all borders, ports, and key routes! Simultaneously,"

Nie Bing's gaze swept across the audience. "Establish the 'Anti-Xiao Special Intelligence Department,' under my direct leadership, with Victor King's assistance. Integrate the intelligence forces of various countries and families, and spare no effort to thoroughly investigate all of Xiao Ce's infiltration networks in the West! I will make him blind and deaf!"

“Yes, sir!” Victor King loudly accepted the order.

“Furthermore!” A cold glint flashed in Nie Bing’s eyes!

"Nail these three remains of demonic creations to the specially made prison cart! I want every citizen of Alliance City, and everyone in the Western world, to see clearly what kind of thing the tyrant of East Asia sent to assassinate our leader!!"

Let everyone see the threat posed by our enemy! They don't live in a peaceful era; instead, they seek refuge with the Alliance...

We must parade through the streets! Let everyone know how hard-won our peace is. And that the wolfish ambitions of the Easterners have never ceased! Starting from the Governor's Mansion, we'll circle the main thoroughfares of the entire city! Let the flames of anger burn throughout the entire Alliance City!

"We must also let all the citizens of the Alliance City know the necessity of loyalty to the Alliance! When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken!"

"Yes!" A barely perceptible glint flashed in Victor King's eyes as he immediately turned to make the arrangements.

Nie Bing's words seemed to be issuing a task to Viktor King.

In reality, it was also meant for the king and the twelve families present to hear those words.

These individuals are all intelligent, so they naturally understood immediately.

After Victor King accepted the mission, they all chimed in to Nie Bing.

"President, we will also spread this message to our country...so that our country will not be so rude as to look down on...or look down on those people from East Asia..."

After hearing what these people said, Nie Bing nodded in satisfaction and didn't waste any more words...

The orders were issued with astonishing efficiency.

In less than an hour, the remains of three robots, which had been specially cleaned but still looked grotesque, were firmly secured to a specially made black flatbed cart with huge iron spikes and cages.

The glaring "Xiao" inscription on the armor plate, the complex wiring and mechanical structure exposed at the break, and the deliberately preserved charred explosion marks are all highlighted to the maximum extent.

Around the flatbed truck were fully armed, solemn-looking Allied soldiers, as well as a loud-voiced messenger personally selected by Victor King.

The parade began.

When this special convoy of prison vans drove out of the governor's mansion and appeared on the wide main road of Lingas, the whole city was in an uproar!

The panic and speculation caused by last night's sirens have finally been answered with an official and concrete answer!

"Look! That's the monster that attacked the guild leader last night!"

"My God! It's made of steel! It's the devil's creation!"

"The script of the Xiao Kingdom! It's the mark of Xiao Ce, that tyrant of East Asia!"

"He wants to kill our guild leader! He wants to destroy Alliance City!"

"Damn East Asians! Damn Xiao Ce!"

"These robots, although not as powerful as our chairman's iron guard robots, are far more powerful than ordinary people like us."

...

The messenger recounted the truth of what had happened in the council chamber this morning in a hoarse voice!

Xiao Ce of East Asia dispatched his most elite "Divine Machine Battalion" steel assassins to infiltrate Alliance City with the intention of assassinating President Nie Bing and overthrowing the Western Alliance!

Fortunately, thanks to the wise and powerful Chairman, the skillful command of Chief of Staff Victor King, and the loyal Iron Guards who fought to the death, this shocking conspiracy was thwarted!

On one hand, they touted the power of those robots, and on the other hand, they claimed that Nie Bing's Iron Guard robot was even superior...

Panic was quickly ignited and channeled, transforming into a raging inferno and a wave of xenophobia.

The residents of the Alliance City quickly went from being shocked and watching to angrily condemning the actions.

Rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, and stones rained down on the three cold, metallic remains, as if they were Xiao Ce himself.

Curses, cries, and shouts for revenge echoed through the sky.

"Kill Xiao Ce!"

"Crush East Asia!"

"Defend the Chairman! Defend the Western Alliance!"

"Make those devils from the East pay the price!"

The soldiers maintaining order along the way, also infected by this surging public sentiment, straightened their backs, their eyes filled with hatred for the enemy and loyalty to their leader...

The king and his family representatives' carriages followed slowly among the crowd. Through the carriage windows, they looked out at the sea of ​​righteous indignation, feeling the fury that threatened to overturn the city. The last trace of doubt in their hearts was overwhelmed by this terrifying tide of public opinion.

Regardless of their previous impressions of Nie Bing...

At this moment, Nie Bing's image in their hearts was closely linked to the guardian of the Western world and the banner against the demons of the East.

Supporting her is supporting the West; questioning her is betraying the entire Western world!

Not only that, it also declares that those people in East Asia are incredibly powerful, possessing weapons they simply cannot match. Only the robots in her hands can deal with them!

Ed White sat in his luxurious carriage, listening to the deafening shouts of "Long live President Nie Bing!" and "Kill Xiao Ce!" outside, his fingers unconsciously tapping the edge of the carriage window.

He looked at the wreckage of the robot, despised by the people, and recalled Nie Bing's impeccable performance in the council hall and her ability to instantly take control of the situation, as well as Victor King's perfectly timed display of loyalty.

He sighed inwardly, completely extinguishing the last vestige of any thought of trying to uncover the truth of last night.

He had some doubts, feeling that something about this matter was not quite right.

This parade, in particular, seemed more like a performance.

However, Ed White knew very well that this pool of water was too deep and this fire too fierce. Only by going with the flow could he protect himself, and perhaps even... get a share of the spoils.

In any case, you can't question them. If Nie Bing wants to tell him, she'll definitely find him...

Nie Bing stood atop the tallest tower of the Governor's Mansion, overlooking the entire city.

The procession, like an angry fire dragon, snaked its way through the streets of Lingas, igniting flames of hatred wherever it went.

She could clearly hear the roar that converged into an ocean, and feel the overwhelming hatred directed at Xiao Ce that almost materialized.

The plan succeeded...

She perfectly executed the script Xiao Ce had given her, transforming an internal crisis targeting her into a nationwide mobilization against a powerful external enemy. This greatly consolidated her position and the cohesion of the Western Alliance, and also laid the groundwork for a possible future connection with "that person".

Moreover, she saw more submission in the eyes of those kings and the twelve families...

However, she felt that Ed White seemed to have some doubts, but she didn't intend to explain them.

Just as Xiao Ce said, the fewer people who know, the safer she is...

The safer this situation is, the less these people feel that attacks by East Asians are unlikely to happen.

Nie Bing even considered whether to stage such a scene at a crucial moment...

...

Meanwhile, at a port on the other side of the British Empire.

This time, Xiao Ce did not rashly expose the submarine directly.

He first took a small boat and then made contact with them.

Immediately afterwards, they reached the shore and then waited.

When Morgana learned of Xiao Ce's whereabouts, she also traveled overnight.

It wasn't until noon that Morgana arrived at the port with a small team.

Morgana was somewhat surprised to see Xiao Ce: "Mr. Xiao Ce, why are you back so quickly..."

As they spoke, Morgana also noticed the supplies and people behind Xiao Ce.

He immediately saw the problem with these people.

Their clothing was ordinary, but their weapons were even more extraordinary.

Morgana just stared at her like that.

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Do you like it?"

Morgana froze on the spot after hearing Xiao Ce's words.

"what?"

Xiao Ce pointed to the mannequins and boxes of equipment in front of Morgana.

"These are all treasures I brought for you..."

Morgana looked on with anticipation.

Xiao Ce kept half of the equipment.

He kept the other half for himself. Because he had been away from East Asia for a long time.

He doesn't know what the situation is like in East Asia right now, and on this trip, he might have to go to that Hidden Dragon Tomb. Who knows what's inside that tomb?

He still needs to keep some cards up his sleeve.

"Come on, let me show you... First, those exoskeleton armors..."

When Xiao Ce introduced the exoskeleton armor and energy weapons to Morgana, Morgana's eyes lit up.

In particular, seeing the power displayed by those lifelike humanoids wearing exoskeleton armor and carrying those energy weapons.

"Mr. Xiao Ce, will your people make it easy to deal with those Iron Man robots in the future?"

After hearing their words, Xiao Ce smiled and nodded, then said, "That's right, that's indeed the case. However, there's one problem: we haven't solved the issue of resupplying these weapons... So, you should use them sparingly..."

Morgana nodded.

As Xiao Ce spoke, he pointed to several scientists who were simulating humanoids. These scientists were the ones Caesar and his group had arranged for them during the previous council meeting.

The goal is to improve their basic science.
