In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

"If you still want to play some political tricks behind the scenes and try to fool Great Xia..."

Su Ran paused, her eyes suddenly turning cold.

"The fate of those people on stage is the fate of your entire underground government. Do you understand?"

William shuddered, cold sweat instantly soaking through his military uniform.

"Understood, understood."

William stammered in response.

Su Ran withdrew her gaze and raised her chin.

"Alright. Continue your performance. The sooner you finish killing, the sooner you can lead the way."

"Yes! Yes!"

William felt as if he had been granted a pardon, and turned around to swing his arm sharply.

"Execute!"

The dozen or so rough hemp ropes tightened instantly.

The gallows made a teeth-grinding creaking sound.

A dozen or so former high-ranking John Congress members were kicking and thrashing about with their feet dangling in the air.

Their faces turned purplish-red, their eyes bulged, and their tongues stretched out.

Under the high platform.

Thirty thousand wasteland survivors erupted in deafening cheers, some even weeping with excitement.

Death and fanaticism are intertwined.

"These old Johns, dressed in the skin of civilization, are still pirates at heart."

Ye Xiao left the mecha, watched this scene, and snorted coldly.

"If they can betray their congressmen to save their own lives today, they can turn around and bite us back tomorrow if given the chance."

"Therefore, we never need to trust them."

Su Ran looked at the corpse on the platform that was gradually ceasing to struggle, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the underground fortress.

"All we need to do is to control them tightly."

William stepped down from the platform and came to Su Ran.

"Warriors of Great Xia, the internal cleanup is complete. His Excellency the Prime Minister is waiting for you in the underground base. Please follow me."

Su Ran nodded.

The three followed William through the cheering crowd toward the bunker entrance.

A heavy, blast-resistant armored door has been opened.

High-powered lights illuminated both sides of the passageway, brightening the dimly lit underground space.

The walls are covered with various pipes and monitoring equipment.

Walk down the slope.

"Brother Su, are we really going to see that prime minister?"

Ye Xiao, carrying the knife, curled his lip.

"That old bastard's got a heart of stone. He pushed his colleague out to take the blame without batting an eye. Can you really expect someone like that to obediently follow orders?"

"If he weren't ruthless, he wouldn't be able to stay in this position. The smarter he is, the better he knows what choice to make now."

Su Ran continued walking, her military boots making a crisp sound on the metal floor.

"He handed over the supplies and the defenses, and from then on, the entire Kingdom of John became the bridgehead of Great Xia."

He wanted to be a puppet to appease the people, and Great Xia granted his wish.

At this point, Su Ran paused suddenly and turned to look at Ye Xiao.

"By the way, Lao Ye, go and contact those Wasteland Awakeners in the square first."

Ye Xiao was taken aback. "Why would we look for them? A bunch of rabble."

Even a mob can have its uses.

The future global awakened system, led by Great Xia, must have an example of positive feedback.

A deep, calculating glint flashed in Su Ran's eyes.

"Since John's Nation has become the first to submit to the rule, its awakened individuals are qualified to be the first 'test subjects' to have their superpowers systematically developed."

Su Ran's voice sounded particularly cold and rational in the empty corridor.

"Tell them that from now on, all awakened beings in the Kingdom of John must be registered in the Great Xia's tactical system."

The allocation of all advanced resources and the deployment of weapons are all centrally managed by the Great Xia Dynasty.

Most importantly…

Su Ran sneered.

"Tell them that the Great Xia possesses a 'gene serum' that can help them break through the barriers between ranks."

Upon hearing this, even the white deer standing to the side glanced at him slightly.

When did the Great Xia Dynasty have this kind of thing?

Anyway, if Su Ran says it exists, then Great Xia has it!

After all, it's not surprising that a powerful nation capable of wiping out all mutated creatures in its entirety would also possess the means to enhance superpowers.

Su Ran continued to add,

"They want to become stronger and live better in the apocalypse, so they have to earn military merits."

Go to the front lines and kill mutated creatures. The more you kill, the more resources you get.

"Old Ye, give us a rough idea of ​​what's going on, and see how these hungry wolves struggling in the mud react."

"Okay! Brother Su, I understand!"

Ye Xiao grinned, shouldered his knife, and turned to walk towards the surface.

After arranging things for Ye Xiao, Su Ran and Bai Lu continued to delve deeper into the core area.

Enter the core area.

A spacious conference room.

Boris Johnson, the current Prime Minister of the United States, stands at the table.

Seeing Su Ran and Bai Lu walk in, he went up to them with a warm smile on his face.

"Welcome to Avalon, warriors of the Great Xia Expeditionary Force."

Boris's voice was full of emotion.

"I am Boris Johnson, the former Prime Minister of the United States."

On behalf of all the people of John, I extend my highest respect to the highest decision-making body of Great Britain, and thank you for bringing the dawn of hope to mankind!

"Former Prime Minister?"

Su Ran looked at him with a half-smile.

"Yes, warriors from the Great Xia."

Our nation failed to protect its citizens like the Great Xia Dynasty did; I am a sinner against this country.

Boris sighed.

"I have submitted my resignation to the King of England."

A new general election is about to begin, and the new prime minister will surely be born from among the suffering people on earth.

Only those who have experienced hardship can truly lead our country to a new life…

"Alright."

Su Ran waved her hand, interrupting the former prime minister's performance.

He never expected that he, who was only there to receive strategic supplies, would end up watching several poorly made stage plays.

Su Ran glanced at the room's furnishings and spoke directly.

"To make a long story short, are you all clear about the conditions for accepting Great Xia?"

Despite being abruptly interrupted, Boris did not show any displeasure and nodded repeatedly.

"Very clear. The coordinates of all resource nodes within the Kingdom of John have been compiled into a book."

He picked up a thick document from the table and handed it to Su Ran.

"Except for the necessary survival supplies, all control of the underground reserves will be transferred to Da Xia."

From today onwards, London's defense will be taken over by Great Britain.

We are willing to be the strongest link in the Great Xia's global defense system.

"Your attitude has really changed quickly. Just a few days ago you were hiding downstairs pretending to be dead, and today you're opening the door wide to welcome us."

Bai Lu, who had been silent all along, suddenly let out a cold snort.

"Just by finding a few scapegoats, you think you can absolve yourself of all responsibility?"

Bai Lu has a cold personality and a black-and-white worldview.

I have an instinctive aversion to such unscrupulous politicians.

"Beautiful lady, you've misunderstood."

Boris's tone was sincere.

"The fools in Parliament were blinded before. They refused to see reality and tried to maintain the privileges of the old era."

I proposed cooperating with Daxia a long time ago, but unfortunately I am at their mercy.

The obstacle has now been cleared.

John's Kingdom will follow in the footsteps of Great Xia without reservation!
