Chapter 1128

Hearing this, Nathaniel’s face paled, and he asked, “Why? Did something happen?”

James ordered, “Three thousand mercenaries have surrounded Hope Villa District.

I want you to mobilize the entire armed forces and reinforce me.

I don’t wish to harm any innocent people, nor do I wish to let a single enemy escape.”

“Holy...” Hearing this, Nathaniel was stunned, and he immediately gave the order.

Sirens began blaring throughout и_σνєℓєвσσк.¢σм the Red Flame Army’s headquarters.

The Red Flame Army hastily assembled and was prepared to move out.

Convoys, armored cars, and helicopters were on the move.

At the same time, in Hope Villa District...

The mercenaries seized control of the security room and wiped out all security guards.

Aman full of scars on his face was speaking using a loudspeaker, “ Listen up, James.

Release Halvor Tuckson immediately and prepare a helicopter for me, or else I’ll flatten Hope Villa

District.” “Curses!” James was enraged.

“Emperor, we shouldn’t act recklessly.

We don’t know about their numbers or their weapons.

The consequences will be dire if we’re reckless,” Henry hurriedly reminded James.

James took a deep breath to calm himself down.

“Hahaha...” Halvor burst into a peal of laughter, “I told you, didn’t I? There’s no way you can withstand

the consequences.

Release me at once, or else I’ll make sure hundreds of innocent victims die alongside me.” James

ignored him.

At the same time, Central Command was established.

A few drones were used to scout the situation outside.

“Emperor, there are approximately three thousand men outside armed with heavy weaponry.

They even have RPGs.

We can’t annihilate them all without getting innocent people in Hope Villa District involved.”

“Emperor, they’re the Wagner Mercenaries, who are active in the North African region.

I don’t know how they managed to infiltrate the Capital.” “Their weapons are Solean weaponry.

They must have been in contact with the military.” More and more news came.

Hearing them, James’ face darkened.

Things were way more complex than he initially thought.

He was confident he could annihilate the mercenaries.

However, he could not guarantee the safety of the civilians inside Hope Villa District.

James was wearing a grim expression.

“Emperor, the Secretary of Defence is on the line.” “Put him through.” James grabbed the phone beside

him.

“Do not act recklessly, James.

Hope Villa District is full of important figures of Sol.

Their deaths would be the nation’s loss.

Accept whatever demands they make.” James hung up the phone.

“Emperor, the Directorate of Security is on the line.” “Ignore him,” James ordered.

He knew that these powerful figures were trying to pressure him to accept the enemy’s demands.

However, as the person in charge of this battle, и_σνєℓєвσσк.¢σм he called the shots around here.

Henry asked, “What should we do, Emperor? Do we compromise or...” James said, “We will stall for

time before the main forces arrive.

This is the Capital, the capital of Sol.

If we allow them to take Halvor just like that, what would the world think of us? Are the negotiators

here?”

“Yes, they are in the process of negotiating.

However, the enemy only demands to see you.” “Alright then, I’ll see what they are up to.” James stood

up and left Central Command.
