Chapter 204: Surrender

"Surrender or disappear forever!" Ye Cang's voice echoed within the office.

After hearing this, the President of Russia remained exactly as he had been a moment ago.

"Heh, young Chief Engineer, it seems your ears aren't working too well; you didn't hear what I just said!"

The President of Russia said.

"We will absolutely not surrender! There is only one path: to fight to the death!"

"Furthermore, our Death Alpha System is not just for show!"

As he spoke, the President of Russia reached his hand into his pocket, but the next second, his expression suddenly turned ugly.

The Death Alpha System, it actually didn't respond?

This, how could this be?

With an ugly expression, the President of Russia ignored Ye Cang and the old man in front of him and immediately pulled a remote control the size of a matchbox from his pocket.

This remote control had only one red button.

Now, the President of Russia was pressing the red button forcefully.

But no matter how he pressed it, he never received a response.

Under normal circumstances, as long as this red button was pressed, the Death Alpha System would activate, and he would receive a notification.

But now...

The President of Russia grew more anxious the more he pressed; within a few minutes, fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

And Ye Cang and the old man just stood there quietly, watching the President of Russia.

For the President of Russia, the Death Alpha System was undoubtedly his greatest trump card, but now this trump card was actually not working.

"Save your energy," Ye Cang suddenly said.

"Your Death Alpha System has already been taken over by me."

Ye Cang's sentence, "The Death Alpha System has been taken over by me," made the President of Russia nearly collapse.

"Impossible!" the President of Russia said loudly, "The Death Alpha System uses Russia's unique encryption method, Winter!"

"Even if Yingjiang came, they wouldn't be able to crack it without a month's time!"

But Ye Cang said only one sentence that left the President of Russia speechless.

"But I am not Yingjiang; I am the Chief Engineer of Huaxia!"

"Do you really think that I, this Chief Engineer, am just for show!"

But even when things reached this point, the President of Russia still had no intention of surrendering.

"The Death Alpha System has been taken over by you, so what!"

"The people of Russia will absolutely not submit!"

Ye Cang had long anticipated that the President of Russia would say this, and he had already thought of a countermeasure.

"I admire people with backbone like you," Ye Cang said as he sat down on the office sofa.

"But I am curious whether your backbone will hold out until the end."

As the words fell, a voice very familiar to the President of Russia suddenly rang out in the office.

"Death Alpha System officially activated."

When this voice appeared, surprise immediately appeared on the President of Russia's face.

The trump card could be used?

But the words that followed the voice made the President of Russia feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Target locked, Russia!"

In an instant, the President of Russia's expression became incredibly ugly.

And Ye Cang also said at this moment: "I have changed the Death Alpha System's predetermined target."

"Now, as long as I want, all the nuclear missiles within Russia's borders—and of course, it's more than the 10,000 previously scheduled—"

"All the nuclear missiles will rise into the sky together and bomb every inch of land within Russia's borders."

"Of course, I will let you watch it all happen."

"I hope your backbone can let you hold out until the end!"

"Starting countdown."

"10, 9, 8, 7, 6..."

Accompanying Ye Cang's countdown, the President of Russia could not help but start to tremble.

And the magnitude of the trembling was extremely great.

Cold sweat also flowed like a small stream, continuously dripping onto the floor along his cheeks, quickly forming a small puddle of water on the ground.

At this moment, the President of Russia was struggling intensely inside.

Russia, having inherited the will of the Iron Father, would not surrender!

Russia had only one ending, and that was to fight to the death!

But now, someone was actually using the lives of the entire nation's residents and the entirety of Russia to threaten him.

If he did not agree, the entirety of Russia and its residents would be completely destroyed.

But if he did agree, he would be betraying the will of the Iron Father!

He... what on earth should he do?

At this moment, the President of Russia was incomparably conflicted; he simply did not know how he should choose.

But no matter how conflicted the President of Russia was, Ye Cang's countdown would not stop.

"5, 4, 3, 2..."

When the countdown reached 2, the President of Russia could no longer bear it,

He shouted out loud.

"Stop the countdown!"

"I choose to surrender!"

As the word "surrender" left his lips, the President of Russia seemed to have exhausted all his strength, collapsing directly onto the floor and gasping for air.

Staring at the ceiling of his office, the President of Russia apologized silently in his heart.

I am sorry, great Iron Father.

I have betrayed your will, your legacy, and everything you stood for.

But as President, I cannot ignore the lives of my citizens.

I believe you would have thought the same.

Therefore, I have made the same choice as you.

Please forgive me...

Seeing the state of the President of Russia, the old man sitting in the main seat slowly stood up and walked over to him.

He reached out his hand toward him.

"Come now, old friend, the floor is cold; don't catch a chill," the old man said with a smile.

Looking at the old man who had reached out his hand, the President of Russia felt his teeth itch with hatred, but he was helpless.

Because the wood was already carved into a boat; everything was set in stone, and saying anything more was useless.

He could only hatefully grasp the old man's hand and use the old man's strength to stand up from the floor.

"Fine, fine, fine, old friend, I truly underestimated you!" the President of Russia said.

"This chief engineer of yours is truly ruthless!"

"To think he would use the lives of all my citizens to coerce me!"

"Impressive, truly impressive!"

"He has become so impressive that he doesn't even seem like a good person anymore! How despicable and shameless!"

The old man did not speak after hearing this, merely smiling and shaking his head.

Instead, Ye Cang spoke up: "Whether one is a bad person or a good person,"

"In war, there are no good people or bad people. There are only the final victors!"

"As long as one can win, what does it matter how despicable or shameless one is! This is war!"

The President of Russia snorted coldly at Ye Cang's words.

Yet he did not refute Ye Cang, instead returning to his office chair.

He then continued: "Since I have chosen to surrender, I will not go back on my word."

"Do whatever you want, I just hope you give me some time to move out."

The old man, however, shook his head.

"What are you thinking, old friend."

"You are still the President of Russia; there is no need to move, just keep doing your job."

"After Huaxia finishes dealing with those fellows, we will discuss the subsequent matters."
