PEERLESS GENIUS SYSTEM III

Chapter 407: An unexpected way

After Xiao Luo blew up the White House, the federal government immediately dispatched a large contingent of army and police troops to comb through the entire Washington DC. All of them swore to hunt down Xiao Han, the thousand-faced killer, and execute him most cruelly to vent their anger.

However, their efforts were to no avail as the target suddenly vanished like a wraith, and there was no trace of him at all!

The federal government expected the Pentagon to be the next target and duly deployed security forces to guard the building. As a further precaution, they also cut off the communication network ports of all military bases across the country. The action was to prevent the hacking of military bases and the unauthorized launching of their long-range missiles in attacking the Pentagon.

The SEAL members scoured the entire Pentagon for security breaches thoroughly and installed sensitive detectors to screen for potential bombs. As intense screening was being carried out, security troops were patrolling the perimeter of the Pentagon along with the FBI and police.

"Mr. President, there'll be no problem. If Mie wants to blow up the Pentagon, he has to break in physically. And the moment he appears, the Pentagon will be his last resting place!" A captain in the SEAL team remarked to President Bama.

The Pentagon was in total lockdown and fully secured. There was no way that Mie could breach their defenses. The SEAL team had full confidence in their abilities and had done everything they could to guard this place.

President Bama sat on the sofa with his hands interlocked over his stomach. He was brooding, and his face was somber. He had been this way ever since Xiao Lio blew the White House up. His characteristic smile had long vanished as citizens around the country protested on the streets, calling for his removal and the resignation of the federal government under his leadership. They threw his pictures on the ground and the angry citizens stomped on them, demanding truth and justice.

He had lost his reputation, and people were stomping on his dignity!

There were instances where President Bama felt so depressed, he almost vomited blood in anger.

"I don't want to hear your bullsh*t promises. I want him dead! Do you get it?" he snapped, clenching his teeth.

The captain nodded and replied, "Yes, Sir."

In this temporary office, every cabinet minister remained silent, not daring to utter a single word. They were visibly concerned that, despite combing the area for over forty-eight hours, they could not find out where Xiao Han, the Thousand-faced Killer, was hiding. The man had miraculously vanished into thin air, and that was a matter of great consternation.

Still, nobody expected Mie to be successful this time around. Every military base had decoupled its connectivity with the outside. Regardless of how competent Mie's hacking ability was, he could not tap into the military bases' resources. If he wanted to blow up the Pentagon, he would have to come here with the bomb himself. But the moment he showed up, snipers, heavy tanks, machine guns would welcome him. He would come face-to-face with an assortment of precision weapons and mass-killing machines. And he would undoubtedly die miserably.

SHRIEEEEK~

Suddenly, a loud, sharp noise reverberated through the room and startled everyone.

"What was that?"

President Bama asked anxiously, for he could not afford any more accidents. If they lost the Pentagon, the entire world would mock him and his federal government for the rest of their lives.

A man in a suit rushed in, gasping desperately. "Sir, we lost contact with the national space station. We've tracked it, and it's not good news—it's been kicked off its orbit and is losing altitude fast. It's too late now. The Earth's gravity has captured it, and it's crashing through the stratosphere as we speak," he reported.
