Chapter 157: Chapter 152 Federation Law (2 more for monthly votes)Yu Bei City Airport No.1, within the flying device hangar. At this moment, a large Federation operation airship and several small flying devices are docked. The airship’s flight engines are already activated and on standby, as many members of the Federation Investigation Team in black suits are escorting some special citizens onto the airship. "Director Taylor, now that the situation has become so severe, why haven’t we taken off yet!" A middle-aged man with a mix of black and white hair and a surly face is being wheeled over by a bodyguard, the large flying device’s turbulence making everyone’s clothes flutter. The man looks furious and questions Taylor Moreno who is busy sending messages on a mobile terminal. "Councilman Zhou, please return to the airship immediately. Without clearing the threats in the airspace, the flight squadron can’t risk taking off," Taylor Moreno glances at him and says. "Ridiculous! What about the Iron Guard Brigade and the Guard Corps, and all the anti-aircraft defenses at the airport? These are all paid for by the Federation, why not clear the airspace immediately! A bunch of idiots!" Councilman Zhou hysterically yells, "Hurry up and take off, or you won’t serve as the director anymore." Taylor Moreno laughs disdainfully and responds lightly, "Iron Guard Brigade? They refused to escort us. But I’ve already used Federation authority to directly restart the airport system. The anti-aircraft weapons will now clear a path for us, so please stop wasting time here." Councilman Zhou gives her a cold look, his expression urgent, "Hmph, then hurry up, if my time is delayed, you all can get lost!" "Inform all flight squadrons, prepare to take off." Taylor Moreno hands the mobile device to a subordinate and instructs. "Yes." Pat, pat, pat... At this moment, the sound of a group of hurried footsteps is quickly approaching. Taylor Moreno turns her head and sees Bai Shuang leading a group from the emergency response team and the Iron Guard Brigade’s soldiers, all looking angry. "Guard Corps!" She immediately shouts, and dozens of Guard Corps members come forward, holding guns. "How dare you do something like this!" Bai Shuang, ignoring the guns pointed by the Guard Corps, rushes forward furiously, "There are tens of thousands of survivors here, do you understand the consequences of your actions?" Taylor Moreno steps back to let the Guard Corps stand in front of her and lifts her glasses, defiantly saying, "According to Federation law article 332, all armed forces must provide comprehensive escort measures for government officials’ flying devices. I’m just following orders!" Bai Shuang roars in anger after hearing this, "Have you forgotten the first article of Federation law, which states that all citizens’ lives, property, and safety are above everything else?!" "So what?" Taylor Moreno sneers coldly, pointing to the large airship behind her, "Then, do you know who are on this airship?!" The conflict here quickly draws the attention of other survivors in the plaza. Many who see the Federation Investigation Team become displeased, and more people gather around, their anger fueled by the conversation. "What! They stopped the anti-aircraft system... to provide escort??!!" "What the hell! Why would they do this!?" "Damn it, I’m going to slaughter you!" "Kill a bunch of sons of bitches!!" "Kill them!!" The crowd is incited, with many people raising their guns. The Guard Corps members are forced to stand in front of Taylor Moreno and Councilman Zhou to stop the angry survivors from rushing forward. Shu Qin, Xu Jin, and Lao Mo, covered in blood and disheveled, have been using their gun barrels like clubs to resist, only to be suddenly backstabbed by their own people. It’s impossible not to be filled with rage. Councilman Zhou watches the scene with a brooding face, making a slight gesture to his bodyguard, preparing to leave. Facing the torrent of curses, Taylor Moreno loudly scolds, "I advise you to not waste time; the entire airport is Federation property. Don’t you ridiculously think these weapons, these walls, were paid for by you people?!" Her body trembles, growing more agitated as she speaks, "You must understand, the people on these airships are the most important assets of human civilization, and it’s everyone’s duty to protect them first and foremost..." Bang! A gunshot rips through the air, suddenly quieting the tense atmosphere. Because everyone sees, Taylor Moreno, who was furiously screaming, now has a uniform bullet hole in her forehead, blood slowly trickling down. She looks utterly disbelieving, and then... she crumples backward with a thud. Pat, pat. The sound of purposeful footsteps quickly approaches, the crowd automatically parts, and General Zhang Dingzhong, commander of the Iron Guard Brigade, flanked by his adjutants, walks into the hangar. Seeing the newcomer, Councilman Zhou’s expression changes drastically, he glances at the deceased Taylor on the ground, and says with an icy tone, "General Zhang, you dare to shoot a Federation official, this means declaring war on our entire Federation Government..." Bang! General Zhang, with a cold face, walks over, lifts his pistol, and shoots again, instantly blowing Councilman Zhou’s head apart, the one in a wheelchair, and curses in a low voice, "Bastard." His shots hit the forehead with brutal precision. The bodyguard behind Councilman Zhou was splattered with blood all over his face. Looking down, he saw Councilman Zhou with his mouth agape, slumped over in his wheelchair, with excrement and urine flowing out, dead to the core. The hundreds of passengers on the airship also heard the gunshots at this moment, and the cabin was instantly thrown into chaos, with continuous screams. This sudden turn of events stunned the angry survivors present; Shi Deyuan of Dragon Mountain No.1 widened his eyes in vindication, while the siblings Jian Xuwei and Jian Zeyang from Silver Star had a slight change in expression. General Zhang Dingzhong walked straight to the front of Guard Corps Commander Zhan Wei and gave him a cold look. "Zhan Wei, when I taught you as my guard, did I ever teach you to point guns at women and children?" "Chief Officer, I..." Seeing the old Chief Officer, Zhan Wei struggled between his expressions, lowered his head, and at this moment, all the members of the Guard Corps put down their guns; they did not wish to aim their guns at the survivors in the first place. General Zhang Dingzhong walked past him to the back, and said to Taylor Moreno’s deputy, who was terrified and shaking next to the body: "You have three minutes to take off." "Ah!?" Upon hearing this, the deputy’s face turned pale with fright, and other Federation officials’ faces changed drastically, all running toward the direction of the airship. "Quick! Let’s go quickly!" On the airship, Zhao Yan and Xu Wen were sitting at the very end with their computer bags, looking tense. Now seeing that the airship was about to take off, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. "My God, I thought they were going to shoot us." "Ah... we’re finally taking off..." Woo... The airship slowly took off, the entire flight squadron beginning to plunge into the high-altitude night sky.

Zhao Yan looked through the airship’s porthole at the black armored train parked on the train track platform in the distance, her eyes flashing with regret, "Director Ding... such a pity..." ... After killing Taylor and Councilman Zhou, General Zhang Dingzhong approached Bai Shuang. "How is the situation now?" "Not good," Bai Shuang said with a gloomy face, "We didn’t expect them to do something like this, which completely disrupted our plans." Wei Kexue sighed on one side, "This authorization comes from the original Federation’s high-level authorization; now we either have to negotiate with them, or overwrite the system anew." With the collapse of the Federation Government and the fall of various places, the system authority of local assets didn’t have a clear division. Bai Shuang’s emergency team had come to launch the maintenance ascension channel to assist the survivors in evacuating. They didn’t expect Taylor Moreno to suddenly play such a trick at a critical moment, catching everyone by surprise. The disaster turned out to be internal to humanity. Hearing this, the survivors’ team members collectively took a deep breath, their gazes all turning to General Zhang Dingzhong in unison. "Forget the authorization; how long will it take to overwrite the system?" At this moment, the most composed here was General Zhang Dingzhong. His expression unchanged, he stood like a stabilizing talisman in the hearts of everyone, "Our defenses have not been breached yet; there’s still a chance to evacuate." Wei Kexue looked around with a complex expression and urgently said, "If we’re to overwrite the system, using the computing power we brought over, we would need at least 4 hours. The ascending elevator has already been repaired with the help of Captain Lin, but the problem now is that even after overwriting is completed, the power transmitted from the eastern cables is no longer enough to support the operation of the ascending elevator." General Zhang Dingzhong’s brows furrowed slightly, his gaze turning to Bai Shuang. "Yes," Bai Shuang said somewhat ashamedly, "The earthquake just now damaged an airport power supply line; ascending elevators, electromagnetic acceleration, and the air defense system all consume a lot of power. The energy we have now is no longer sufficient to maintain the basic operation of the airport." Upon Bai Shuang’s words, the atmosphere seemed to abruptly freeze. The survivors present changed their expressions one after another, panic and despair beginning to spread rapidly. "Ah?? The airport can’t maintain operation anymore?" "What should we do then, wait to die?" "Oh my God..." ... "So, is there no other way?" General Zhang Dingzhong’s face darkened, and he immediately asked in a stern voice. "We..." Bai Shuang was feeling desperate; the airport’s critical situation had far exceeded previous estimates, and with the Iron Guard Brigade having taken heavy damage, the survivors who were stranded here were nearly plunged into a hopeless situation, leaving her momentarily without solutions. "There is another method!" Just at that moment, a voice suddenly boomed from the back of the crowd, causing everyone’s expressions to change, all turning to look back. In the distance, Lin Xian and KIKI were running over with urgent footsteps. "Captain Lin!" Shu Qin and Xu Jin called out immediately. "Captain Lin?!" Wei Kexue saw Lin Xian approaching and suddenly remembered there was such a master of Mechanical Superpower here. As if grasping at a lifeline, he spoke up, "You... do you have a way to overwrite the system?" In his view, if Lin Xian could directly repair such complex robots, perhaps there was some chance if he could complete the system overwrite. "I cannot overwrite the system!" Lin Xian rushed over with urgency, his eyes sweeping over General Zhang Dingzhong, recognizing that he seemed to be the Chief Officer of the Iron Guard Brigade, and said directly, "However, I do have a method that can send everyone at the airport up to the high-altitude corridor within two hours!"
