Chapter 1247 The Leader of the Stars and Stripes Empire, Commits Self-Destruction as Atonement
Chapter 1247 The Leader of the Stars and Stripes Empire, Commits Self-Destruction as Atonement
Chen Yang ignored the protesting crowd at the foot of the statue, not even glancing at them.
His gaze was fixed on Liberty City before him, a city that was known as the most developed, wealthiest, and most prestigious city in the world.
At a height of over two hundred meters, his field of vision was extremely wide, allowing him to see everything from the white imperial palace to the polygonal defense headquarters building.
A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He knew that the people who had always been against him, the leaders of the Stars and Stripes Empire, were inside those two buildings.
Suddenly, a magnetic magic weapon appeared in his hand. He then activated his dantian's true energy, pouring surging magical power into it.
Now, he could easily take the head of a general from a million-strong army. Even if Liberty City was impregnable and secretly equipped with countless weapons of war, it would be useless.
Those he wants to kill cannot escape.
Even if it's the leader of a country.
Buzz!
Soon, the Yuan Magnetic Divine Mountain magic treasure emitted a dazzling light, becoming like a small sun, making it impossible to look directly at it. The Yuan Magnetic Divine Energy within was also activated, with seven-colored divine light swirling around it, like a shining light bulb.
At this moment, countless people felt a chill run down their spines.
The Great Demon King Chen took out the Yuan Magnetic Divine Mountain magic weapon and infused it with magic power. Was he about to unleash a massacre?
He had used this magic weapon in previous battles. Its power was terrifying, utterly devastating, with the destructive force of a thousand cannons slicing across the land, and even comparable to a high-yield nuclear weapon.
Suddenly, the protesters quieted down. They had been hurling insults and spewing profanities, but now they didn't dare utter a single word.
To hurl insults at an invincible powerhouse is like an old man hanging himself—he's tired of living!
Chen Yang certainly didn't intend to go on a killing spree and annihilate Free City. As a good person with a conscience, he wouldn't do that. He simply wanted to raze the White Imperial Palace and the polygonal defense building to the ground.
Of course, there may be some accidental injuries or deaths during the process, which is beyond his control and depends entirely on how strong his personal birth chart is.
However, just as he was about to throw the Yuan Magnetic Divine Mountain magic weapon out, the Stars and Stripes flags that had been fluttering in the wind above the white imperial palace and the polygonal defense building were lowered and a white flag was raised.
The white flags fluttered in the wind, making a rustling sound.
This is clearly a sign of surrender!
"..."
Chen Yang was immediately stunned, never expecting that these high-ranking officials of the Stars and Stripes Empire would do something so damaging to the country's dignity.
In other countries, people would rather die standing than die on their knees!
All I can say is that this great American empire can stand up, but it can also kneel down, treating its national dignity like dirt.
These two white flags were broadcast live and instantly spread throughout the world.
Then the whole world was shocked.
Is raising the white flag something the Stars and Stripes empire would actually do?
Dignity shattered, national dignity shattered...
Those little brother countries that followed the Stars and Stripes empire were all devastated, their moods were not good, and they were very sad.
They had assumed the Stars and Stripes would be tough and continue their fight to the death with the Eastern superpower, but now they've raised the white flag and surrendered. How are their smaller allies supposed to cope?
Are they also going to kneel?
You should know that these smaller countries, backed by the Stars and Stripes empire and relying on their big brother's support, have often tried to undermine our great Eastern power, sabotaging us behind our backs and even openly opposing us, making us feel embarrassed.
Some of them are even tiny countries, yet they are constantly causing trouble, clinging to our territory and islands.
Everyone is now trembling with fear.
When Brother Long got angry, blood splattered everywhere, and corpses littered the fields.
"Your Majesty, the white flag has been raised, but the Great Demon King of the East is still standing there atop the statue of the God of War, showing no sign of leaving. Moreover, the magnetic magic weapon he's wielding is quite frightening; we don't know when he'll unleash it. Perhaps we should send someone to talk to him and see what he's up to? Is he trying to extort money from us?"
Inside the white imperial palace, in the head of state's office, a high-ranking official bowed and spoke to the head of state, looking very distressed, his face ashen as if he had eaten feces.
The order to raise the white flag just now was undoubtedly given by His Majesty the Führer.
By issuing a white flag, he was sending a signal to Chen Yang: he had backed down, and the Stars and Stripes Empire had backed down too, hoping that the Great Demon King would show leniency and give him a way out, as well as the Stars and Stripes Empire a way out.
In his imperial palace office, if he drew back the curtains, he could see the statue of the God of Liberty, which was more than ten kilometers away.
However, at this distance, the statue of the God of Liberty already looked very small, and Chen Yang, standing atop its head, appeared as insignificant as an ant, barely visible. Unless one used binoculars.
However, Chen Yang's vision is different. His X-ray vision has the ability to see a thousand miles, and he can see clearly even from more than ten kilometers away.
With focused vision, Chen Yang could even see the wrinkles on the face of the imperial head of state.
"Your Excellency, we should take shelter in the underground bunker. If this kid goes mad and throws his magic weapon at us, the consequences could be dire," another high-ranking official said, almost pleading.
Whether it's the white imperial palace or the polygonal defense building, they all have underground bunkers built, with a level of sturdiness comparable to a doomsday fortress. Even if nuclear weapons are released on the surface, the underground will remain unharmed.
As long as His Majesty hides inside, I can't say he'll be safe forever, but at least he'll be able to save his life when Chen Yang throws the Yuan Magnetic Treasure in his hand at him.
The head of state is the symbol of a country. As long as he is alive, the country exists; as long as he does not fall, the country will not fall.
Therefore, many of the bigwigs present advised the head of state to hide underground.
"He will leave. All of you, get out. I need some peace and quiet. My mind is a mess right now, and I can't think straight," the head of state said, issuing the order to leave. His expression was indifferent, and his tone was calm and kind, unlike his earlier aggressive manner.
Everyone could clearly see that in just a short moment, His Majesty seemed to have aged decades, lost all his energy, and looked like a walking corpse.
"But……"
Some people still tried to persuade him.
"There are no 'buts'. If I tell you to leave, then leave. Wait outside the door. No one is allowed to come in unless I call them. Remember, that's an order!" The head of state's expression became more serious and authoritative.
"Well... alright, everyone get out, we'll go out for a bit first."
Seeing that His Majesty was resolute, everyone respectfully obeyed and withdrew to wait outside the door.
"Send a few people over there to negotiate with Chen the Great Demon King and see what he's up to. We've already paid the compensation and apologized; this is truly outrageous," said a high-ranking military official.
After all the bigwigs had left, the head of state locked the door from the inside.
Afterwards, the old man went to the window, pulled back the curtains, opened the window, picked up his binoculars, and looked at the Statue of Liberty, which was more than ten kilometers away.
With a telescope, the visual effect is completely different. Not only can the statue of the God of Freedom be seen more clearly, but Chen Yang, who is standing on top of the statue, can also be seen clearly, as well as the Yuan Magnetic Divine Mountain magic treasure in Chen Yang's hand that shines like a small sun.
Chen Yang acted as if he were holding a brick, constantly weighing the magical artifacts on Yuan Ci's body, throwing them into the air, and catching them again, giving off a roguish yet cool vibe.
The Yuan Magnetic Divine Mountain magic treasure radiated countless rays of divine light, which was extremely intimidating. Even from a great distance, the emperor could feel the terrifying destructive power within it.
Threat!
The threat of Chi Guoguo!
A huge threat!
At the foot of the statue of the God of Liberty, thousands upon thousands of excited people stood in three or four concentric circles, all seemingly on steroids, shouting accusations and cursing at Chen Yang. Many others were climbing up the ladder inside.
Chen Yang kept his eyes fixed ahead, ignoring the guys at his feet.
How could a bunch of ants possibly catch his eye?
Suddenly, the head of state was startled. He saw Chen Yang smiling at him, but it wasn't a friendly smile; it was a forced smile with a hint of malice.
After regaining his composure, the head of state waved to Chen Yang.
He believed that Chen Yang could see him, and see him very clearly.
He could even guess what Chen Yang was thinking at that moment.
Previously, Chen Yang had given him a chance to step down and make way for a more capable person, but he failed to do so and instead intensified his retaliation against Chen Yang.
Now, abdicating and handing over the position to a more capable person is no longer an option to quell Chen Yang's anger.
Unless he dies!
"So be it, the victor is king, the loser is villain. I admit defeat this time. I'll take responsibility for my actions. I hope that after I die, you'll spare my country and my people." The head of state muttered to himself, putting down his binoculars and climbing out the window.
His office was on the top floor of the palace, dozens of meters above the ground, with a hard cement floor. Given his advanced age, it would be no surprise if he fell to his death.
Indeed, this leader is very responsible. He took all the blame and was prepared to jump off the building to give Chen Yang an explanation, and also to give the Stars and Stripes Empire an explanation.
Everyone cherishes life and fears death; what he did was a last resort.
In the past, he could have relied on the powerful military force of the Stars and Stripes Empire, with tens of thousands of nuclear warheads, to fight Chen Yang to the death and threaten the whole world.
However, the Empire's military strength has now fallen to second-rate, and it only has a few hundred nuclear warheads left, so it no longer has the conditions to fight Chen Yang to the death.
However, Chen Yang possesses godlike combat power, capable of destroying the Stars and Stripes Empire at any time.
In short, the only way for the head of the empire to atone for his sins is through death!
Just like the former German leader of the Great German Empire, who also committed suicide, the nature of his death is exactly the same.
He has committed heinous crimes; if he does not die, it would be an outrage against Heaven!
"Oh no, the head of state is going to jump off a building."
A guard was the first to spot the Führer climbing onto the window and quickly relayed the message.
But by the time the staff in the imperial palace took action, it was too late.
"God bless the Star-Spangled Empire!"
With this slogan uttered, the old head of state of the empire jumped from the windowsill.
Boom!
The next second, a loud bang came from the ground.
Then the entire white imperial palace was thrown into chaos.
More than ten kilometers away, Chen Yang stood on top of the statue of the God of Freedom and watched the head of the Empire leap down, even seeing his skull crack open. He smiled with satisfaction.
Children can be taught!
Children can be taught!
In the end, the old man took all the blame, and of course, most of it was his fault, rather than letting the people suffer and bear Chen Yang's wrath.
"Get out of my way, you bastard! Get your stinky feet off me! This statue of the God of War is the totem of my Stars and Stripes Empire, and it is not something you can defile!"
"Did you hear me? Get out of here!"
"Don't think that just because you're a great demon king, you can do whatever you want."
……
At this moment, several figures also reached the top of the statue through the ladder inside the statue of the God of Liberty, and barked loudly at Chen Yang.
These were all fanatics, their adrenaline surging, unafraid even though they knew the handsome Eastern man standing before them was the most powerful man in the world.
Meanwhile, at the feet of the God of Liberty, there were thousands of such fanatics, surrounding the statue in concentric circles, emitting deafening roars.
In short, Chen Yang is very unpopular here.
"Since you are so unwelcoming to me, I might as well leave." Chen Yang smiled coldly.
As he finished speaking, he stomped his foot heavily on the head of the statue of the God of Liberty.
Boom!
This stomp had a significant impact; a force of no less than 100,000 tons pressed down, and the Freedom God statue, weighing only a few hundred tons, could not withstand it and collapsed on the spot.
Click!
Everyone present witnessed an unbelievable scene: the more than 200-meter-tall bronze statue of the God of Freedom was crushed by Chen Yang's single stomp, shattering into countless pieces as if it had been exploded from the inside.
"Ah ah ah..."
Those guys who rushed to Chen Yang's feet were instantly turned into minced meat, their souls shattered on the spot.
Moreover, these countless bronze fragments flew out in all directions like bullets, with a power comparable to a six-barreled Gatling gun, firing wildly in all directions.
shhhhhh!
Puff puff!
"Ahhh!"
Human lives are harvested like grass.
The thousands of fanatics who had gathered around fell in droves, and the dead were wiped out in droves.
In the end, apart from a few lucky ones who survived, the vast majority of people perished.
Chen Yang, on the other hand, soared into the sky and flew away.
"Next, I should take a good rest for a while, spend time with my family, and then go into seclusion to condense my Yuan Dan. The path of cultivation is long and arduous, and I will continue to explore it."
Chen Yang sat cross-legged on the back of the Black Scaled Eagle, lost in thought, looking back on the past and imagining the future.
Although he had only been out of the Ragnarok world for a week or two, he had experienced countless battles, both large and small, and killed countless enemies.
No matter how powerful the enemy is, he will sweep them aside with even more powerful means.
N-M
