Chapter 1352: Chapter 1214: The President: I Will Strike in Mech Form!
Washington, D.C.’s government officials, White House staff, and senior War Situation Room officials were in a bind.
They didn’t want this either.
But they couldn’t withstand the president’s insistence on going it alone.
The president’s orders weren’t beyond opposition, but if the president had a valid reason and they had no better solution, on what grounds could they object?
After all, this situation was caused by the floppy disk that Lincoln had given them previously.
Back then, he simply walked away, but the storm in America hadn’t subsided for even a day.
Over the next several days, only third-year high school students in Daxia were facing the college entrance examination.
But in America, federal intelligence agencies at all levels, law enforcement agencies, mercenaries, desperadoes, killers, spies, and even terrorists were all facing a major test!
Yes, spies from foreign countries had also sprung into action.
This caused huge trouble for the intelligence agencies.
Originally, after incurring a significant cost, the intelligence and law enforcement agencies were about to deliver the floppy disk to Washington D.C.
—— It was mainly the intelligence agencies that bore this cost.

After the midpoint, the law enforcement agencies, thanks to miraculous internal channels, realized the danger and consciously began to avoid battle.
Their actions turned very cautious and some even took leave in advance to avoid the storm.

But the Federal Bureau of Investigation couldn’t abide by this.
Mr.
President had clearly stated, “If you can’t handle it, just say it early, and I will call the Central Intelligence Agency to help you.”
How could the FBI tolerate that?
Even if half of the agents in the bureau died, they couldn’t concede an inch of their jurisdiction!
Everyone had skeletons in their closet.
Usually, one agency handled domestic affairs and the other foreign matters, maintaining superficial peace.
But if the other side got hold of any leverage, misusing public resources for personal gain, serious problems could arise!
As for whether the other side would misuse public resources for personal gain…
Is that even a question?
If you put yourself in their shoes, they would definitely use it!
So, the FBI, sparring no expense, stepped up to the challenge and activated several deep cover agents, and even urgently recalled a number of retired special agents.
After paying an enormous cost, the floppy disk was finally reclaimed and sent to Washington.
Everyone in the War Situation Room thought it was secure.
But just before the disk entered the district, an unidentified spy within the escort team suddenly turned traitor, coordinating with external forces to annihilate the escort team on the spot and abscond with the disk.
The director’s expression turned very ugly.
When follow-up intelligence reported that the unknown enemies had gathered a large number of people at the port and the disk was likely to be shipped out immediately, everyone’s expression turned as unsightly as if they had swallowed flies.
Intelligence and law enforcement personnel lacked combat power, the army needed time to mobilize, and dispatching troops for combat in the district would have a very negative impact.
In case of any mishap, who would take the responsibility?
The atmosphere in the War Situation Room was very tense.
At that moment, the president, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly stood up.
He said, “Deploy the mechs, I will drive them myself!”
As soon as the president spoke, all officials in the War Situation Room were dumbstruck
Not everyone was aware of the purchase of mechs from Titan Manufacturing, and even those in the know weren’t aware that the mechs had already been delivered to the home territory, tested, and transported to Washington, lying in the port’s warehouse as of now.
“How…
How do we explain this to the public?”
Senior military official: “Showcasing R&D achievements.”
This was, after all, the reason the mech had been sent to the district—not to satisfy Mr.
President’s curiosity about the big toy.
“But sir, do you know how to drive a mech?” the Director of the Intelligence Bureau asked dryly.
“Of course,” said Mr.
President, with a stern expression.
“No one knows mechs better than I do!”
And so——
Mr.
President took the field in person!
Of course, in reality, Mr.
President didn’t leave The White House—the mechs could be remotely controlled.
When Lincoln demonstrated it on-site, it was merely to see the mech firsthand, and live streaming added to the effect.
In an urban environment, the combat power of mechs is unquestionable.
The incident in Kinshasa had already proved it once, and now it was being proved a second time.
When the mech was awakened, breaking through the rooftop and standing up from the warehouse, the special agents on standby at the port and the kidnapped port employees were almost seeing a mountain rise in front of their eyes!
And those agents and spies of unknown identity were dumbfounded on the spot.
They tried to counterattack, but the weapons in their hands, though formidable against individuals, could only spark off the giant mech, which was no more than scratching an itch!
The material used for this mech was solid to the extreme, and to achieve “tactical deception,” its entire outer shell was made of special metals, much tougher than the medium mech used in Kinshasa.
Forget the snipers and automatic rifles in their hands, even if they brought out a machine gun, it would be useless.
Especially since this mech had been modified by the military, it was equipped with hot weapons too!
——With the size of a giant mech, too much can be crammed inside!
However, Mr.
President hadn’t gone completely mad; drones, autocannons, heavy artillery, rocket launchers…
none were used, only an EMP disruption was activated.
Once the EMP disruption was on, the rest was simply a giant swatting mosquitoes.
The reinforced concrete shelters, never before had they seemed so ludicrous!
A push would topple them, a twist would shatter them, and one punch would leave one or several little pancakes.
Complete devastation, withering, pulling, and decay!
Even the enemy’s last hope—the small cargo ship—was lifted by the mech and broken in half dozens of meters high in the air!
This scene was so spectacular that it completely shattered everyone’s morale.
Even the spies and agents with hearts of steel and ready to face death scattered and fled in all directions when their psychological defenses were penetrated.
Then the operatives and special agents entered the scene to sweep up and tie up loose ends, retrieving the floppy disk and sending it to the White House.
Under Mr.
President’s control, the mech stepped towards the city district.
It was said to be escorting and deterring, but actually, the mech hadn’t had enough fun.
Next was to summon reporters to execute a publicity plan to cover up the truth.
Although it was still dawn, how could reporters be asleep with the mech making an appearance?
In front of the news, media reporters don’t need to sleep!
Indeed, less than twenty minutes after the battle, half of America’s media reporters were awake.
Forty minutes later, [Mech Invades Washington] parachuted into the top headlines of the global Internet.
And the mech had only traveled half the distance.
——Not that it couldn’t move quickly, but it didn’t dare to move too fast, for fear of accidentally causing too much unintended damage to the city.
But even with the utmost caution, this road would need some serious maintenance afterwards…
Of course, this is temporarily not important.
Even the upcoming media press conference wasn’t that important.
What was truly important at this moment was the contents of the floppy disk—slowly moving under the protection of the mech, the disk was actually a decoy; the real thing had been delivered ahead of time.
In the War Situation Room, it was full of high-ranking officials.
The Chief Science Advisor took the floppy disk with both hands, inserting it into the drive with the utmost care.
Under the expectant gaze of many eyes, the contents of the disk were successfully read.
It was a web page link.
The advisor hesitated, “Shall we proceed?”
He was a bit hesitant, “This address might not be safe, shall we prepare a bit, maybe open it in a safer environment?”
“Don’t worry, go ahead!”
Mr.
President’s steady voice gave him full confidence.
“Yes, sir!”
With no further hesitation, the advisor quickly copied the link, navigated, and opened a webpage in front of everyone.
