NOVPUBChapter 1008: Chapter 1003 Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey 1_1 Chapter 1008 -1003 Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey 1_1 While he was speaking, Finn Lewis had already walked up to him.
Before he could finish his words, Finn did something that astonished everyone; he stretched out lots of hands and directly yanked the portable microphone hanging from the speaker’s ear.
This device was not only a microphone but also had an automatic translation function.
After all, although there was a federal common language, there were also some dialects.
Of course, there were also too many people, so the automatic sound collection system could not be used because these members sometimes discussed in private.
Finn’s action left everyone stunned, but by then Finn had already started speaking with a faint smile on his face.
“…I’m not here today to quibble with you.
...
My purpose for coming here is to tell you two things.
First, the federation has entered an emergency state.
Starting now, I’m taking over all of the federation’s defense affairs.
I hope you will cooperate with my work, managing the affairs among ordinary people.
If there is any dangerous situation, coordinate with the local planet authorities to evacuate the civilians.”
“Second, including the oversight bureau, is now on my side.
All soldiers are being drafted into the battle sequence, leaving only the most basic level of defense system intact.
Of course, the defense forces on the surface of the planet will not be reduced.”
“If you have any objections now, you can speak,” Finn said lightly.
Every member below was staring dumbfounded until Finn finished speaking.
Only then did they grasp what Finn had said, but all the members couldn’t fathom what exactly Finn was talking about.
And where did Finn get the confidence to do this?
How could he dare to do so?
But when they heard that even the oversight bureau was on Finn’s side and listened to what he said, everyone realized there must be something they were unaware of.
“What makes you think you have the right?” a member stood up and shouted, “This is a violation of federal law, you don’t have the authority to do this.”
“Whether I have the authority is not for you to decide, it’s for me to decide.
You don’t know all of the federal laws.
In a time of federal crisis, I have the right to do such things.
If you’re unaware, then elevate your rights to the point where you have the authority to know before you come to me,” Finn retorted coldly.
“Humph!
You’re now forcibly holding us hostage with military power.
Whatever you say is arbitrary, isn’t it?
If what you say has rules, then please show me the evidence,” the member said loudly without hesitation.
“If you can’t provide evidence, then I will contact various families shortly and ask them to send troops to suppress the rebellion!”
A cold glint flashed in Finn’s eyes as he asked plainly, “Luna Starfield, is he on the list?”
Hearing Finn’s question, Alexander Rodgers felt a sudden sense of dread, but before he could start to argue, Luna Starfield’s voice was already ringing in everyone’s ears, “According to federal law, only 78 people are not on the list.”
“Number one.” Finn glanced at the member and then casually waved his hand.
With a “click” sound, the number one behind Finn swiftly raised his firearm, released the safety, and with a faint “whoosh,” a blinding laser weapon struck the member’s forehead center instantly.
His face was still filled with disbelief, but he could no longer make any expression as a charred crater deeply marked his forehead.
With a “thud,” his body slumped onto his seat.
Only then did Finn ignore the people around him, standing stiff as trees, and said coldly, “Luna Starfield, show them the evidence.”
