I am the one running the game

Chapter 686 The price of asking me to clean up the mess is very high
"Fifty cities sacrificed in blood?" Lu Xingshi looked at the information in his hand and felt that this matter must be very complicated.

The more powerful the demon, the more sacrifices it requires.

The first thing that Lu Xingshi thought of was the mastermind behind the Daliang Dynasty becoming like this.

Moreover, there are at least 500,000 people in a city. After this blood sacrifice, 25 million people will die directly.

Normally, such a large-scale blood sacrifice would definitely lead to accidents, after all, there are so many people. Unfortunately, these fifty cities are under the rule of the Daliang Dynasty.

Twenty-five million people are infected by this thought. Not only will they not resist, but they are very eager to die, and even regard it as an honor.

So it was too late to stop it. By the time the news reached the federal army, the blood sacrifice had already been completed.

If he could save her, Lu Xingshi would definitely try to save her. Unfortunately, he couldn't. What else could he do?

It wasn't him who performed the blood sacrifice, and he wasn't the culprit, so he couldn't just take the blame on himself.

"I have to say that this empress is really ruthless when it comes to treating her compatriots."

"Twenty-five million such loyal people were sacrificed at the drop of a hat."

"We haven't reached the end of our rope yet. If we really were at the end of our rope, it would be crazy."

However, on second thought, destroying the Great Wall is as easy as eating and drinking for the royal family of Daliang.

As the eldest of the royal family, the empress must be better at destroying the Great Wall herself.

It's just that 25 million people died. Even if there was one more zero, she didn't think there would be any waves.

However, this incident caused an uproar in the federal army and the territories it ruled. This was not 2,500 people, but 25 million people, an extremely shocking number.

With so many people just standing there for them to kill, they couldn't be killed all in a short period of time.

He ended up dying.

"President, something big has happened."

Zheng Xiang rushed in without even saying hello, looking anxious.

Obviously something big had happened. Normally he was very polite, even if it was just on the surface.

But this time, he just barged in regardless.

Fortunately, Lu Xingshi was looking at intelligence this time and was not conducting experiments, otherwise it would have caused a lot of trouble.

"What's the urgent matter?" Lu Xingshi put the information down casually.

"Yiling City, Kui City...a total of twelve cities have reported their destruction. A powerful alien demon escaped from the alien demon world and began to kill people wantonly."

"Preliminary judgment is that it was summoned by the empress's blood sacrifice." Zheng Xiang spoke very quickly and explained to Lu Xingshi how critical the situation was.

They did not deal with the alien demon world, but banned it. As the saying goes, one must first stabilize the country before fighting against foreign enemies, so they had to solve the internal troubles of the Dali Dynasty first, and then deal with the external threat of the alien demons.

After all, the Dalan Dynasty is more like a soft persimmon for the Federation, and the foreign demon world rarely takes the initiative to attack, so there is no need to worry for the time being.

But they never expected that once the demons from the alien demon world took the initiative to attack, it would be a fatal blow to them.

Previously, dozens of level 100 professionals joined forces to face this powerful alien demon, but they could not even delay it for a few minutes, let alone kill it.

"I was just about to remind you to be careful about this matter, but it seems that the information the Federation sent to me was a little late." Lu Xingshi, on the contrary, looked calm and not in a hurry at all.

If their intelligence was delivered in time and Lu Xingshi gave a reminder, even if this powerful demon attacked, they would be able to take precautions in advance and not be caught off guard.

Unfortunately, as the federation grew stronger, due to the peculiarities of the federal system, many factions emerged internally to check and balance each other. So when things happened, they only remembered that they seemed to have a president.

So, Zheng Xiang came here.

Hearing what Lu Xingshi said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. In his opinion, Lu Xingshi was expressing his dissatisfaction with him.

In fact, Lu Xingshi didn't care at all. He was happy to see the Federation in such a state.

Otherwise, if everyone really wants to unify and restore the glory of the human race, how can he further weaken the world?

"Mr. President, you are busy. If we let you worry about these chores, it would make us look incompetent." He made up an excuse.

In fact, they knew about Lu Xingshi's daily experimental research, but they kept it secret and didn't let it spread out. They thought that after the federation was successful, they would expose Lu Xingshi's brutal behavior and force Lu Xingshi to step down from the position of president.

It’s okay to let Lu Xingshi be a president in name only now, but the fruits of victory afterwards must be in their hands.

"You think very well of me, so when something big happens, you want me to clean up your mess, right?" Lu Xingshi said disdainfully.

Lu Xingshi knew exactly what this group of people were thinking, as if his mind was as clear as a mirror.

But not only did he not restrain it, he also deliberately indulged it.

It's not his power, so what does it have to do with him?

As for the fact that he is the president, it is not so easy to take back the power. The destiny of the son of destiny is different from the fate of the emperor in the martial arts world. It is not biased towards power. "President, this is indeed a mistake made by your subordinates, but you are magnanimous. Now this matter cannot be delayed." Zheng Xiang heard what Lu Xingshi said, and he could only bite the bullet and speak, meaning that you should deal with it first, and I will give you an explanation afterwards.

The explanation is very simple, just find a scapegoat to take the blame, and then continue to do the same as before.

They can't really return the power to Lu Xingshi, and they don't want to do that.

"Everyone can talk nonsense. I need some things. I have prepared a list for you."

"If I can't see you when I come back, I don't mind changing a group of people to continue singing hymns for me." After saying this, Lu Xingshi took out a list that would be longer than Zheng Xiang's life.

"This... this is a bit too much." Zheng Xiang just took a quick look and his face turned a little green.

"If you make a mistake, you must admit it. If you are beaten, you must stand at attention."

"People have to be responsible for their own mistakes instead of trying to shirk responsibility," Lu Xingshi said earnestly.

"I..." Zheng Xiang's face turned even uglier when he heard this.

"Forget about me. I don't mind who is singing my praises, just like you don't mind who is the president now."

"When I come back and don't see what I want, I will replace the councillors with new people."

"There may not be many people who dare to face the demons, but there are definitely many people who want to be members of parliament." Lu Xingshi will not indulge them.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he extorted a large sum of money.

As for some MPs’ disdain for this?
They were sane. As long as Lu Xingshi got rid of this strange demon, they would give him what he wanted even if it meant losing everything they had.

After all, Lu Xingshi can kill demons, which means that this force can also be used on them.

Politics? Interests? These are all based on the premise that people must be alive. If people die, no matter how good the plan is, it will not fall on you.

"When the President returns victorious, he will definitely be able to see what you want." After hearing Lu Xingshi's naked threat, Zheng Xiang did not bargain at all.

Of course, the prerequisite is that Lu Xingshi has to kill the alien demon, otherwise he won’t be able to get any of these things.

They are afraid if they win, and naturally not afraid if they don’t win.

Zheng Xiang actually didn't care. This huge list was not borne by him alone, but by the entire federation. If the cost was spread out, the amount would not be enough to hurt them greatly. As senior executives, they would sooner or later recover the money through various operations of the federation.

But if the federation is gone, not only will power and wealth be lost, but even lives will probably be lost along with them.

Their enemies have never treated them as human beings. The outcome of failure is definitely death, there is no other outcome.

"That's good. I hope the items are not short of weight, otherwise I have a very bad temper." Lu Xingshi didn't care about their greed, as long as they didn't take advantage of his interests.

"Don't worry, President. I will kill anyone who dares to lay his hands on me." Zheng Xiang made the promise. As for how much value this promise had, no one knew.

This is a politician who came from a noble family. The difference between speaking and farting is that the fart is not necessarily a stinky fart.

...

"It's been a long time since I've eaten such fresh blood." The alien demon said intoxicatedly, then looked towards the alien demon world, and his mood suddenly became unhappy.

Every foreign demon world has a part of his power divided into it.

This caused his power to be completely dispersed, and he had no way of exerting his full strength.

However, doing so is only a temporary solution for the world. After all, maintaining this division and suppression is extremely exhausting, and his power in it has evolved into demons and monsters, constantly consuming the origin of the world.

Sooner or later, his power will be unleashed.

As for why he did not choose to break it in advance after his clone came out, the reason was very simple, that is, he couldn't do it.

If his real body could break the seal from the origin of the world, it would be possible, but unfortunately he is just a clone.

That’s right, the origin of the world where his original body is located, according to classification, is actually an alien demonic world, which is the so-called copy.

If a professional kills him at the root of the world, he will also be wiped out by the rules of the world. At that time, these foreign demons will become rootless duckweed. Even if there is no professional to kill them, they will disappear little by little, and eventually the world will win.

Even if the process may be long.

"It seems that a strong man is coming towards me." A cold light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the alien demon. He could sense a sense of fear in himself. This was his intuition and instinct.

"It seems that the destined child of this generation has arrived, but he is a little late."

"I seem to have underestimated him. He must be very powerful to make me feel this way."

"If you don't give it your all, there's a good chance you'll die at the hands of the other side."

The alien demon showed no contempt or disdain, instead his expression became more solemn.
