BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1799 Theo's Real Aim
The President instantly assembled his staff again to discuss this matter. He thought Theo couldn\'t destroy their facts again, but it seemed they had underestimated Theo.
The proof he provided wasn\'t something that he could acquire from the laboratory.
"So, give me an idea." The President asked with a grim expression. The public had gone crazy after this sudden change. They thought the government had been silencing Theo this whole time. That was why he hadn\'t replied to the government\'s claim yet.
And it seemed they were right after seeing the news.
People were a bit skeptical since it came from Ronald. But Ronald had also built up his credibility over two decades. People knew he was trustworthy. That was why the opinions could split.
And to deliver the last blow, Theo had also tagged Ronald in the Skynet, saying, "Good job."
In that instant, the people went crazy. And it became their problem again.
"This is…" His staff couldn\'t believe the situation turned out this way. They had discussed their stance against Theo.
One man couldn\'t be above the country. That was what they believed. Hence, they didn\'t answer Theo\'s requests because they believed they could do anything now with the proof.
But with this sudden change of information, they were perplexed.
Of course, there was one solution to this answer. They could think of it right away.
"How about we invite a few reporters to document the laboratory themselves? This way, we can show that the proof this journalist provided is wrong. We can regain our credibility."
They had already thought about it and became annoyed since someone had to say it. But they really couldn\'t think of another solution besides this.
"Hmm…" The President narrowed his eyes and asked the others. "Is there another suggestion?"
Suddenly, one of them raised his hand. With an unsure face, he said, "This is not a suggestion but an objection to the plan. What if the place he provided was actually a different one?"
"Huh? A different one?" The President frowned. "What do you mean? Explain it in detail."
"Yes." The guy nodded. "Since Theodore Griffith was the one finding the facility, he might dig another place and build another facility to fool us. In other words, the core information was still with him and that other facility, while the ones he gave us were just a part of them, which he deemed unimportant. As the journalist stated, it was something that would explain the incident in the Academy Event."
When they heard his statement, they looked down, contemplating. They couldn\'t help but agree with what he said.
Theo was strong enough to build another facility like that from scratch, especially with the help of Maya.
"!!!" One guy suddenly came to a realization after remembering Maya. "Now that I think about it… we don\'t know how long Theo has been aware of this facility.
"For example, if he\'s already aware since a few months ago, that can explain why he managed to build those four turrets. He had prepared for the incoming battle.
"Then, with how the Star Group managed to build those four turrets, we could understand how he created that underground facility. In other words, he knew we would be coming for the evidence… No, the reason why he told the journalist about the evidence must be because he knew we would threaten the journalist to get the evidence.
"That way, we would get and publicize the fake proof… No, it\'s not fake proof. Instead, it\'s an incomplete proof."
"!!!" The people shuddered because they agreed with what he said. In other words, they had been playing in Theo\'s hands this whole time.
"Doesn\'t that mean he wanted us to attack him during the battle? That way, we wouldn\'t be able to deal with this problem and get weakened severely…"
The people gasped, seeing through Theo\'s plan. How could they not think about this? Theo\'s real plan wasn\'t to mess with the government or even destroy them. He only wanted to weaken them.
By destroying them, Theo would be seen as a tyrant and the people would begin to protest about his reign. There was no way a monarchy could be established in this place.
That was why by severely weakening them, he could take control of the government from the shadows.
"No way. This is his plan? By giving us a portion of the truth, Theo managed to show that he was superior and we were just trying to suppress him. It wasn\'t enough to destroy us, but our voice wouldn\'t be heard easily by the citizens because they knew we would be hiding something." The woman sucked a cold breath. She realized how scary it was to be Theo\'s opponent.
"How in the world is it possible for him to come up with such a deliberate plan?"
"No. You could say… he has been preparing for it this whole time. And the moment everything aligned, he began his plan."
"And now we\'re trapped…"
"Then, what? Are we going to say Theo is the mastermind? That will just show us we\'re weak."
"We can\'t accept the demand regarding the Vice President as well."
"Does that mean Theodore Griffith kidnapped the Vice President?"
"But he was on the battlefield this whole time…"
"Is there any trace in his cell?"
"…"
The room fell into silence. Their expressions darkened, having no good things in sight. They simply couldn\'t use anything to turn around the situation.
"What do we have to do now?"
"Should we just publish what we have?"
"We can invite some reporters to show them the laboratory and deny the proof from Theo. It won\'t be enough to turn around the situation, but it should be enough to buy some time.
"During that time, we should strike him with the help of the Time God and somehow acquire the Vice President. Only the Vice President could turn around the situation. As long as we could get him, we could force him to admit everything that would weaken Theo\'s opinion."
"In other words, we have to clash with Theodore Griffith. This time, it\'s an all-out war."
The atmosphere became cold as they realized what it meant to start a war against Theo.
