Chapter 210 29. Arrest them all! (10,000 characters asking for subscriptions!)_3

.....

15 seconds later, Fang Ze dragged him out of the office by his legs, as if he were dragging a dead dog!

At that moment, the entire Supervisory Department fell silent, with no one daring to obstruct or speak.

Fang Ze merely glanced at them casually before tossing Qianfeng to Little Fatty, "Handcuff him, inject the muscle serum. Make sure he doesn't escape."

The group, including Little Fatty, was uncontrollably excited.

They hurriedly saluted and shouted, "Yes, sir!"

Victory was always the best glue for people's hearts. Those who were slightly hesitant yesterday were now charged up as if invigorated by a stimulant!

Among them was Nan Yi, who, from start to finish, was full of enthusiasm; despite being injured, his face still lit up with excitement.

Stepping out of the Supervisory Department, Fang Ze signaled Bai Ling to assist Nan Yi and asked, "Are you alright?"

Nan Yi's Awakening Ability was the Pattern Array.

By engraving patterns on his body and activating them, he could move and set up barriers within a certain range.

This was somewhat similar to the Barrier Class Awakener they had encountered in the Special Case Team before.

Compared to that Barrier Class Awakener, the advantages of her Awakening Ability were mobility and significantly stronger barrier strength.

However, the drawback was that each time the barrier was breached, it would affect Nan Yi.

Just now, her barrier had prevented Qianfeng from escaping, causing her to be injured as well.

Nevertheless, upon hearing Fang Ze's question, Nan Yi, who had just vomited blood and was pale, still displayed a smile and said, "I'm fine, sir!"

"I just knew we could be of help to you!"

Seeing the girl's resolute eyes, Fang Ze was taken aback for a moment, then gently patted her shoulder, "Well done."

Listening to Fang Ze's encouraging words and looking at his handsome face, Nan Yi smiled even wider and said, "Sir, you are... very handsome too!"

Fang Ze was taken aback, and a question mark slowly appeared over his head: ?

At that time, by their side, Bai Ling supporting Nan Yi: ?????

Meanwhile, in the luxurious noble room at the top floor of the Governing Hall.

Dressed in purple and green noble attire, decorated with the antler family crest, Bai Zhi sat on the couch in the room.

A middle-aged man wearing similarly luxurious, purple and green noble attire, Jiang Cheng, was brewing tea for her with a golden, crystal frosted teapot.

As he poured the tea into the cup, Jiang Cheng said with a smile, "I remember our families used to be quite close, often visiting each other."

"At that time, I had just graduated from school, and you were still a little girl with braids."

"Who would have thought, in the blink of an eye, you've grown so much."

Bai Zhi remained silent, just quietly holding her tea cup.

Unperturbed, Jiang Cheng gently set down the crystal teapot, sat across Bai Zhi, and said nostalgically, "Back then, that family was still around. They hadn't declined yet."

"All the big and small matters in the state were decided by our three families."

"Back then, the followers and Awakener families who were attached to our three families had filled every department in the state."

"Later, as the Federation and the major districts began consolidating power and supporting civilian elites, our influence kept receding. That family was even crushed, became disillusioned, retired, and no longer concerned themselves with worldly affairs."

"The civilian elites were inspired, one by one, and began to contend with us nobles."

At this point, he laughed and added, "But, they don't really know."

"Nobility remains nobility, the reason for our hereditary succession was never because of past contributions, but because of tangible power!""

"Those who haven't experienced the past disaster, who didn't receive the authority bestowed by the world during that disaster, recognized by the world, will forever be mere cannon fodder in the next disaster."

"This world is ours, and it will always be our world..."

Bai Zhi held her tea, silently listening to him, never speaking.

After a while, sensing a bit of boredom, Jiang Cheng also poured himself a cup of tea, and asked, "Are you here to arrest me today?"

Bai Zhi nodded and uttered a soft "Hmm."

Jiang Cheng chuckled, then asked, "Just by yourself, or those civilians outside?"

"You should know, none of you can stop me."

"Even the whole Emerald City has no one who can stop me."

Bai Zhi looked up at him and said her first words since entering the room, "Are you... going to run?"

Jiang Cheng laughed and said, "Run? What do I have to run from?"

He stood up, straightened his noble attire, and said seriously, "The whole Xida State is my home, why would I run in my own house?"

At this, he gazed deeply at Bai Zhi, his expression half-smiling, "Do you believe they will release me soon after capturing me?"

"Oh. No, wrong. They will respectfully send me out."

Having said this, he looked at Bai Zhi, slightly shook his head, "Bai Zhi, you probably never lived in that era. You will never understand what nobility truly represents."

"Come on. I'll go with you. Let me show you what real nobility and glory are..."

With that, he voluntarily walked towards the door.

Upon opening it, there stood two teams, controlling an elderly man from the Security Bureau's Executive Commissioners.

This had been arranged specifically by Bai Zhi after consulting with the Director of the Security Bureau for this operation.

At that moment, upon seeing Jiang Cheng and the noble attire he was wearing, the Executive Commissioners hesitated for a moment.

Jiang Cheng looked at them, half-smiling, and said to the controlled elderly man, "I'll go with them to the Security Bureau. Arrange a car for me. I'm not accustomed to their vehicles...."

.......

Meanwhile, at the Provincial Government of Xida State.

One phone after another also began to ring in the rooms of the numerous council members.
