Chapter 176 The Ambitious Man Died because of His Own Conspiracy!
"Miles, the Metal War is over. No one will continue to work for your ambition to revive New America. I am now officially informing you that you are laid off."
Li Ang's voice was as calm and steady as ever, but to Miles' ears, it was no less than a burst of thunder.
Although she had a feeling that this day would come, what surprised Miles was that she didn't expect it to come so quickly!
In just a few days, her presidential throne was snatched away. Sure enough, there will never be a vacuum in power, even for a minute!
At this moment, Miles tried his best to control his breathing rate, trying his best not to lose his temper due to anger.
She knew that she had become the number one loser, and it was not difficult for Miles to guess the identity of the man who won the presidency of the new United States.
One hundred percent it was Harford who had been in close contact with her a few days ago!
If the person who takes away her presidency is not the old members of Congress in Washington, it can only be the damn betrayer Lucas Harford.
Being stabbed in the back one after another by his cronies made Miles feel both sad and angry inside.
She didn't understand that she trusted these people so much, but what they gave her in return was betrayal!
"Okay, Mr. Li Ang, I will resign on my own initiative."
Miles said reluctantly, discarding the badge of honor he always wore on the ground, and couldn't help scolding Harford:
"That bitch Harford still wants to sit in my position, so he's taking it for granted. It won't be long before he's so busy that he wants to hang himself!"
"When the time comes, I'll wait for him to beg me to come back."
Miles and Harford were both executives at a military technology company. Even if she was robbed of the presidential throne, she still believed that her next destination would be nothing more than imprisonment.
There was a high probability that he was on an unknown island in Europe, being guarded 24 hours a day by heavily armed soldiers, while he was enjoying the quiet time and ended his life from then on.
After all, she is the president of the new America. Even if she steps down, she should not have her turn to be tried and executed as a war criminal.
However, Miles far underestimated the cruelty of this change in upper-level power. Li Ang, who has Chinese blood, inherited a very fine tradition, which is to eradicate the roots!
All the new American political figures who had a close relationship with Miles Rosalind, including her family members, were all bloodbathed and assassinated by agents of the LA Company and the CIA at this moment.
No exceptions!
And how could Miles himself be alone and escape this bloodbath in the power circle?
Seeing that Miles didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem and was still thinking about luck, Li Ang didn't say any more nonsense to him.
He directly turned off the video conversation with Miles and notified the special agent team to start taking action.
Immediately, the electronic board screen in front of Miles went out, just as she was about to stretch out her hands and accept the reality that she was about to be imprisoned.
The leader of the special agents suddenly took out a dagger and stabbed Miles straight into the heart. Faced with this unexpected scene, Miles' eyes were full of disbelief.
She couldn't believe that these people dared to kill her!
"You guys...!"
The moment the dagger penetrated his body, Miles instantly felt weak and weak.
She could only watch helplessly as the dagger pierced into her heart slowly drained away her life force under the twisting of the agent.
At the last moment, Miles used the little strength left in her body to take off the tactical mask of the agent in front of her.
"It's you! Meredith..."
When he saw that the person who was about to stab him to death was Meredith Stout, the director of operations at Military Technology, Miles realized how wrong he was.
From New America to military technology to the CIA, they were all infiltrated by the LA company and became Li Ang's back garden. Everything she did was a vain act of wishful thinking!
Li Ang was the one behind the whole war.
"Go on your way with peace of mind, Mr. President."
Meredith's tone was as cold as a robot. She didn't have a good impression of her former boss, so she didn't feel any guilt at all for being able to kill Miles herself.
As Meredith finished speaking, the dagger she had inserted into Miles' heart was suddenly pulled out, and blood mixed with broken flesh and some precision prosthetic parts spattered out.
Miles, with her fierce ambition and the ideal of reviving a new America, went to destruction with the death of her life.
Poof!
Miles fell weakly in the ruined room of the unfinished building. After confirming that Miles had lost his vital signs, Meredith did not forget to fire a few more shots.
In order to ensure that the mission is completed and that Miles cannot die again, Meredith directly emptied the entire magazine of the assault rifle.
Seeing that Miles, the once glorious and arrogant new President of the United States, was now so bombarded that he could not even recognize his own mother, Meredith felt extremely happy in her heart.
"Report, the target person is dead!"
…
…
Taipingzhou, Dog Town, Gemstone Green.
At this moment, exhausted V, Li De and Alex, who had just woken up from a coma, were squatting in the sewer of the Sapphire Green Hotel to rest.
In the dark and dull sewer, there was only the sound of three people breathing heavily one after another. They were trying to regain their strength as quickly as possible.
And temporarily hide here to avoid the out-of-control mechanical devices outside.
Under the control of Song Zhaomei's black wall protocol, the entire Dog Town was in chaos. If they walked out rashly, they would be killed by the concentrated fire of the drones and robots in an instant.
"Li De, Alex, can you two hold on?"
At this time, V turned his head and looked at the two people behind him who were depressed and confused.
Not long ago, V carried the two unconscious guys alone and escaped from Baoshi Qing's warehouse to this secret sewer.
It was a blessing and a curse. Thanks to the obsessive Song Zhaomei, who used the black wall invasion to create such a machine riot, V was not targeted by the ghost dog soldiers.
Otherwise, it would be too much for V to deal with the crazy ghost dog soldiers alone.
Not to mention rescuing the unconscious Li De and Alex, I'm afraid even he himself may not be able to escape.
"Thank you, V."
Li De coughed twice, which slightly relieved the discomfort in his lungs.
"You saved mine and Alex's life, we owe it to you."
After saying that, Li De held on to the wall of the sewer and slowly stood up from the ground.
It has to be said that Song Zhaomei's black wall electromagnetic attack really almost killed him. Even now, Li De feels pain all over his body, as if his bones have been removed.
"Xiao Song is now controlled by the black wall. I'm afraid we won't be able to take her away anymore."
Li De's brows furrowed again. He missed the best opportunity to take Song Zhaomei away. If he wanted to catch her again now, he would be powerless.
When he thought of this, Li De regretted it. He had told Alex to increase the destructive intensity of the ice-breaking procedure, so that Song Zhaomei would not lose control.
Now she has been infected by the black wall all over her body. I'm afraid that before long, Song Zhaomei won't even be able to save her own life!
"Then what are you going to do next?"
V looked at the listless Li De and Alex. He didn't think that just the two of them could continue to complete the tasks assigned to them by Miles.
It's time to tell Li De the latest situation!
"Oh, what else can we do? If we don't take Song Zhaomei back, Li De, I, and you won't be able to escape Miles' punishment."
"Being an agent in the CIA is like being a dog, but the treatment we agents receive is worse than a wild dog on the roadside!"
Alex leaned against the dirty drain wall and couldn't help shouting: "I know this bitch Miles very well."
"For your meritorious service, I will reward you with a few useless medals and several thousand euros, and then coax you to continue working for her. If you dare to refuse her, then you will be beaten!"
When it came to President Miles, Alex became extremely angry. She had been lurking in Dog Town and even planned to join LA Company.
But with a telegram message from Miles, she and Li De were dragged out to work for her again. However, Li De, who was not enlightened, was still determined to die for Miles!
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't persuade Li De.
"Alex, that's enough."
Li De scolded the chattering Alex and told her to stop speaking rudely to the president. After all, they were agents of the CIA, and it was not a good habit to insult the president behind his back.
If this was heard by other CIA agents outside, the fate awaiting Alex would only be a mandatory two-month confinement.
Solitary confinement may seem ordinary, but this punishment is an extremely cruel mental torture for anyone.
Being locked up in a dark, small space for a long time can easily lead to mental illness and self-mutilation.
"V, I've thought about it clearly. We still have to rescue Song Zhaomei. As for who she belongs to, I don't want to worry about it anymore."
Li De shook his head and sighed. He was really tired. Even if he went back with nothing and accepted Miles' severe punishment, he would accept it.
After Song Zhaomei was rescued, V could take her wherever he wanted, whether it was the LA company or the CIA. In short, Li De didn't want to get involved anymore.
"Li De, I have to tell you something big. Mr. Li Ang told me this personally. I don't know if this is good news or bad news for you."
Seeing Li De's depressed expression, V wanted to tell him the news that President Miles was dead, but was worried that Li De would not be able to withstand such a blow.
When a dog owner dies, the saddest thing is probably a loyal dog like Li De.
"Come on, what good news can there be now, unless that bitch Miles dies, so that we can all be freed, and it's all over!"
Alex was still cursing.
Anyway, there are only three of them here. She can scold her as much as she wants, and no one can control her.
"Um! Alex, although I don't know if you have any divination ability, you did guess correctly what I was going to say just now."
V's words left Alex confused. In her confused and surprised eyes, every word V said next shocked her heart.
"Miles is dead. She died in the Dog Town Mechanical Riot. The CIA's special agent team has brought her body back to Washington for burial."
"You and Li De's mission will no longer count, because even if you bring Song Zhaomei back to the CIA, you won't get any benefits."
"Besides, your identities are very sensitive, and the information belonging to you in the CIA has been canceled by Miles a long time ago."
"Even if you want to go back, I'm sorry, but we can't find this person. To the CIA, you two are just a gangster with unknown origins."
"The only people who know your true identity now are the dead Miles and the crazy Song Zhaomei."
V's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Li De and Alex speechless. They could only stand there in a daze, their brains seemed to be frozen, unable to react.
"V, Miles is really dead? You're not making up fake news to fool us, are you?"
Alex shook his head, obviously not daring to believe this news easily. How could a cunning person like Miles die from such a careless machine riot.
How could those clumsy robots catch up with Miles?
What's more, if Miles was really in a critical situation, he would definitely send them a message asking for help, but Alex and Li De didn't receive any message.
"If you don't believe it, just send Miles a message or call her and see if she responds to you."
V was too lazy to talk nonsense with them. He was only responsible for telling the facts. As for whether Li De and Alex believed it or not, he didn't care.
Immediately, Alex and Li De called Miles respectively, but the results they got were that no one answered the phone.
Apparently, something really happened on Miles' side!
At this moment, Alex's long-suppressed negative emotions were finally released. She had been waiting for this day for a long time.
"Great! Li De, we finally don't have to endure the threat of that tyrant anymore!"
Alex was so happy that she couldn't help but cheered, but she didn't dare to make too much noise for fear of provoking nearby robots or drones.
Alex's excitement was expected by V, but what V didn't expect was that Li De's reaction was very calm when he learned the news that Miles was dead.
I don’t know if he doesn’t believe the authenticity of this matter, or he just can’t accept such a cruel fact for a while.
"V, did Mr. Li Ang tell you anything else?"
Li De's calm reaction didn't even feel real to him, but it was indeed his state of mind at the moment. Miles' death didn't seem to mean anything.
Even if the president dies, this war will continue and nothing will change.
"And..."
V lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "Now New America's troops have evacuated Night City, including the entire western theater, which is undergoing large-scale withdrawal operations."
"This is an order personally issued by the new president of the new United States, Lucas Harford, and there will be no falsehood."
"Therefore, there is a high probability that North America will return to its previous state. Except for the eastern region, which belongs to the New America, the rest will be free states."
"Li De, this metal war is over!"
