The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 400: battle

Before having the confidence to start the assassination of the Radan President, Clark made sure that they left no stone unturned. He was confident that they considered everything.

Even the problem revealed by Ares, they were able to improvise and look for a way to go through it without complicating the whole plan.

So where did they go wrong?

They monitored the President with advanced gadgets. He was confident that this was the President, this was the same person who has been sitting in the President's seat since his first step inside this country.

This was the same person who attended the Press Conference after the Radan minister of Finance was assassinated.

There was no way that they could have gone wrong, unless

Morales raised his head to look at General Cable, a complicated expression now inside his eyes. He couldnt believe the conclusion that he just came to.

It seems that youve come to the conclusion yourself. The General was extremely calm, not even paying attention to the robot who was originally impersonating the Radan President.

Clarks face twisted complicatedly. You killed him.

He slowly raised his hands to scratch his smooth beards in disbelief of his own conclusion. You killed your own President?

Yes. General Cable answered calmly.

He was not a good leader, so I killed him. Radan needed a better, stronger, and more ruthless leader, and there was no other best candidate than myself.

I simply replaced him with a robot, and I control it.

The General grinned. Isnt that glorious? That is what high-grade soldiers should do, not serving civilian leaders.

Thats why I like your country, you understand the times better. Commander Leonidas is my role model, I simply took a step further in becoming like him.

Seeing the look on the Generals face as he spoke, Clark knew that he completely believed the crazy idea that he cooked up was right.

The General already admitted it but he still found it hard to believe. In the end, he just ended it with a single sentence.

Youre crazy.

The General grinned. Everyone is crazy, it just depends on the degree of craziness that we manifest in our day-to-day activities.

Clark deflated a bit. So, what will you do now?

What else? Create a new robot and continue the impersonation. Revealing the truth will only bring more riots from the brainless bastards of this country.

Do they know? Clark pointed at Captain Odin who laid to the side, listening to the conversation calmly.

Of course, they know, he is the only neutral one among them. The others are already infested with the civilian leadership, they all opposed my plan.

He grinned. I dont need cowards like them in my regime. I already told them, as they didnt come to help today, they should just f*ck off completely.

Clark paused. So, you caused all the suffering in this country, the suppression of soldiers too.

He suddenly laughed. It seems that youre afraid of a soldier overtaking you in the future.

The General revealed a glower on hearing that but he quickly suppressed it. Your special identity is your saving grace, or you would be a dead man by now.

Clark did not mind him. What will you do to me?

If you can promise to keep your mouth shut, you can return alive. But if you refuse, I can as well end your life here, including those of your friends.

Clark kept quiet for a minute before he answered. Ok.

You mean you can keep it?

Clark took a deep breath. I refuse to keep your crimes a secret.

The General was startled for a moment, then he quickly recovered.

Then you leave me with no choice. He pulled out another exotic sword.

Clark held his spear tighter and looked him directly in the eyes.

Feeling his fearless gaze, the General chuckled. What gives you the confidence that you can face me?

Youll know soon.

Boom!

Clark exerted force on his legs, breaking the floor beneath him in the process as he rushed at the General with all the veins on his face popping out and moving like slithering snakes.

In a second, he arrived before the General and swiped with his spear.

The General had a calm look on his face as he used his left gloved hand to gently push the spear to the side, then he head-butted the unruly Lieutenant Colonel hard.

Clark felt dizzy but he recovered in less than a second.

His body moved with power, slamming at the Generals side while his spear was already going for a comeback strike.

The General was surprised by the strength exerted by him, but he quickly became calm again. He finally raised his sword and retaliated.

Boom!

The force made the walls of the underground passage shake before developing various fractures. The shockwaves spread through the floor, stirring the air and tearing the floor like an earthquake was imminent.

The force almost pushed Clark back but with much effort, he was able to kick the floor and keep himself in place.

Seeing his actions, the General kicked at his head.

Clark could no longer control himself as he flew back like a cannon ball, hitting the floor with force as it caved in with his figure.

As soon as he shrugged off the dizziness, he heard the heavy footsteps of the General sprinting towards him. Without hesitation, he activated his battle art- the frenzied maneuver.

He leaped up slightly and easily got to his feet. Without hesitation, he rushed to attack the General again.

This time, he added auxiliary supplements. His daggers came out of their hidden ports and hovered around him as they were controlled by a strange magnetic power, they all flew at the General.

As soon as the daggers flew out, his body calmed down as he tried to siphon the ability that was hidden deep inside his essence as a high-grade soldier.

His eyes suddenly blazed fiercely; he activated his self-created technique- Dragon breaks the ranks as he seemed to have turned to a hurricane.

Boom!
