Volume 1 The Long Night Will Dawn Chapter 131 HR Alliance, disbanded!
For the next month, Hong stayed in Europe to sort out the matter.
He showed an extremely firm attitude and did not forgive anyone involved.
Davis Industries, top floor of the building.
Lin Yan and Lei Shen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the Berlin base city.
Lin Yan was a little puzzled and asked, "Master Hong doesn't usually behave like this. Is there any other inside story?"
Hong has ignored worldly affairs in recent decades and has concentrated on cultivation. His state of mind has reached an extremely high level, but his behavior regarding this matter was somewhat unusual.
Thor sighed, "It's been a long time since I talked about this."
"You are too young. You have not experienced that era in person. The RR virus broke out and the human population dropped sharply from 7 billion to 5 billion. Then, we had to face the attack of countless 'monsters' transformed from birds and beasts on human cities. During the five and a half years of war, the human death toll was close to 1 billion!"
"Three billion people! Which family hasn't experienced the pain of losing a loved one like this?"
"As far as I know, Brother Hong's wife died during the Great Nirvana period. His wife died early... He raised his two children alone."
"He and his wife have a very good relationship, so he hasn't developed feelings for any other women over the years."
"And now that the original culprit has finally surfaced, Brother Hong will naturally not show them any mercy!"
Lin Yan was silent.
So that's how it is.
Even if the state of mind is infinite and all-embracing, it does not mean that even this most basic love and hate will be erased.
Lei Shen sneered, "But it's okay this way. I hate these selfish social parasites the most. It will be peaceful if they are cleared out."
Compared to Hong, Lei Shen is more clear about what he likes and hates.
At this time, a blurry figure condensed outside the door. She was wearing a black robe, a golden mask, and had long black hair, looking very mysterious.
A pair of eyes, as if captivating.
"Chairman Lei Shen, Councillor Lin, the owner of the hall is going to hold a meeting of the God of War Palace at the headquarters of the HR Alliance. Except for some councillors guarding the base city, all other councillors will be present. Please hurry to the venue."
Lin Yan nodded: "Thank you, Miss Councillor, for notifying us. We will be there soon."
This mysterious woman is none other than Yaorao, one of Hong's three personal guards.
Lei Shen looked a little surprised: "Convene a meeting at the Ares Palace? It seems that Brother Hong has already solved this matter."
Yaorao stood there quietly without any reaction.
The three of them boarded a fighter plane and arrived at the HR Alliance headquarters in the Paris base city.
They sat down one by one.
Lin Yan took a look and saw that Jia Yi, Zhu Xi and Tuoba Ji were also present, only Deng Jun stayed in the Tianjing base city.
When everyone was gathered, Hong, who was sitting in the main seat, looked solemn and said, "Let me give you a summary of this incident."
"During this period of time, I arranged for people to conduct a thorough investigation of the Truth Society. There are more than 70 families involved, with more than 300 people involved, and they are all senior family members."
"Among them, 24 members of the HR Alliance Council entered the decision-making level, and three members entered the Ares Palace Council."
Hong's tone was filled with rage.
Everyone present was secretly shocked. Although the Truth Society had been hiding behind the scenes and unknown to the public, it had been rooted in Europe for hundreds of years. Pulling out the radish brought out the mud, which led to such a consequence.
Hong's eyes were cold. "The HR Alliance is an underground alliance formed by super families and consortiums from all over the world. The original intention of its establishment was to prevent being suppressed by the government and the military. However, the unrestrained family power has caused their internal corruption."
"I formally propose to dissolve the HR Alliance Council!"
"We will not investigate any specific families in this matter. We will only punish the people involved. The specific business projects of these super family forces will remain unchanged, but they must be supervised by the governments of various countries. Isadorena will be removed from the position of fifth speaker."
Shocking!
Hong actually wants to dissolve the HR Alliance Council?
As the eighth largest force outside of the five major countries and two martial arts schools, the HR Alliance is much stronger than China, and there are many strong people in the alliance.
Isadore herself is the fifth Speaker, and the fourth Speaker, Easter, is the strongest in the European Union and is also listed in the HR Alliance. The councillors Atkin and Yan Hai are both as strong as Jia Yi and may even be better than him. It can be said that they have the ability to compete for the Speakership.
And Councillor Farr, Councillor Senior.
Apart from the two major martial arts schools, the other five major countries do not have such a luxurious lineup of parliamentarians.
These giant family conglomerates form an alliance that controls more than half of the world's economy, and even the governments and armies of various countries can only live in peace with them.
Just like what Lin Yan did in China, it would be impossible to achieve if it were in North America or Europe, because China has the worst foundation of consortium in this regard and is also the country with the weakest HR alliance.
And today, Hong actually proposed to completely disband the HR Alliance?
Lin Yan thought to himself that those super conglomerates themselves could not be moved because they had deep roots in their respective countries. In some countries, they even had their shadows behind the ruling political parties.
They involve many aspects of people's livelihood, industry, resources, etc. of various countries, and the influence they exert is enormous.
However, simply disbanding their alliance, preventing them from working together to counter the government , subjecting them to government supervision, and weakening their influence at the political level will not be enough to cause any consequences.
After all, the HR Alliance itself does not have any major functions. They are loosely managed, and specific business is mostly handled by local family consortiums.
Isadore was silent for a long time before she asked, "Master Hong, do you really want to do this?"
Hong looked at her with a cold gaze: "Shouldn't it be?"
He just asked a question in return, but it revealed his immense majesty.
Isadorena's face was gloomy, but she didn't dare to refute anything.
Thor said at this time: "I support the First Speaker's proposal. The purpose of establishing the Ares Palace is to benefit the community with a shared future for mankind, and the stumbling blocks in the way must be removed. It has only been more than 40 years since the Great Nirvana period. Has it reached a point where it cannot be changed?"
"Has our management become so rigid that it tolerates and ignores such behavior so quickly?"
"No, I don't think so."
Although the HR Alliance is powerful, the War God Palace is ultimately Hong and Lei Shen’s War God Palace, and their authority is unmatched.
What's more, this matter even involves the RR virus, so there is no room for rebuttal.
They did not publicize this matter because if the truth of the matter were spread, the social response it would cause would be unpredictable.
Hong continued, "The three councillors who colluded with the Truth Society were dealt with as follows."
"Atkin was stripped of his parliamentary status and sentenced to five years in prison."
"Far was stripped of his parliamentary status and sentenced to five years in prison."
"Beard was stripped of his parliamentary status and sentenced to three years in prison."
“After serving his sentence, whether he will be reinstated as a member of parliament will depend on his performance.”
The councillors present did not react much to this arrangement. A planetary-level person has a lifespan of one thousand years, and a sentence of three to five years is nothing. After all, the status and power of councillors are completely different, and Hong's treatment was not considered harsh.
"As for the vacant fifth speaker seat..."
At this time, the third speaker, Mo Henderson, stood up and said, "Master Hong, Councillor Lin Yan is much stronger than me. I am willing to give up the position of the third speaker."
Warriors speak with strength.
Lin Yan's strength had been seen by everyone in the last battle with the evil dragon Nidhogg, and of course everyone understood that he was the strongest man closest to Hong and Thunder God.
It is not surprising that Mo Henderson voluntarily gave up the position of third speaker. If he did not give it up, it would only cause gossip.
Hong's brows relaxed, motioning for Mo Henderson to sit down, and said, "Lin Yan killed the evil dragon Nidhogg, which was close to the beast king level, and the giant Ymir, who was at the third-level planetary level, at the headquarters of the Truth Society last time. His strength is obvious to all."
"Since Mo Henderson has voluntarily given up the position of the third speaker, the position of the third speaker will be taken by Lin Yan, and Mo Henderson and East's positions will be postponed. Do you have any objections?"
Who could have an opinion on this?
"Well, since no one has any ideas, let's handle it this way."
Hong said, "Let's adjourn the meeting."
"Wait a moment." Lin Yan stood up, looked around, and said, "This meeting has gathered most of the members of the Ares Palace. I would like to take this opportunity to show you our China's latest achievements in science and technology."
“And, I hope to reach cooperation with you in this regard.”
The members of the Ares Palace present looked at each other in confusion. What was the latest achievement?
Jia Yi, Zhu Xi and Tuoba Ji looked at Lin Yan with a hint of excitement in their eyes.
Lin Yan looked at Jia Yi and asked, "Councilor Jia, did you bring the things?"
Under everyone's curious gaze, Jia Yi smiled and handed him a backpack. Lin Yan took it, opened it, and first took out a laptop and placed it on the conference table.
Then he took out something that looked a bit like a single-soldier rocket launcher. It was about two meters long, with a diameter of about fifteen centimeters. It was silver all over and had a relatively simple shape.
Lin Yan introduced: "This is our latest laser weapon, the S-class laser gun!"
"It overcomes the shortcomings of laser cannons that are difficult to carry, transport, and use. It is small in size, stable in firing, and equally powerful. It can damage or even kill high-level monster lords!"
As soon as the words fell, Hong and Lei Shen stood up with shocked expressions.
The whole audience was in an uproar!
