Chapter 88: Alliance meeting begins
Shortly after sending the message, 25 flying combat vehicles arrived from behind, joining the official vehicle convoy. A total of 28 combat vehicles were now escorting Wiko's group.
"Mr. Wiko, I feel something is off," Dewi Anjani sent a message to Wiko Suryo in front of her.
"Yes, I feel the same. Has our plan been discovered?" Wiko Suryo replied, while continuing to observe the surroundings.
With no option to retreat, Wiko Suryo and his group could only stay firm and keep following.
The increase in the escort for the official vehicle carrying Wiko's group became a hot topic among the residents around.
"Who's coming?"
"Are the princesses from other alliances coming?"
"Impossible, it must be more important than that little princess."
Public discussion as usual, they were curious about the officials. There were even some floating robots from various television stations covering the convoy of Suryo's group.
"Viewers, reporting live from the central district."
"Our city is receiving other important guests this time. It is reported that the arriving guests are top alliance leaders."
...
Not much different from Earth, the mass media always reported information only to care about view counts without rechecking the quality of the information they conveyed.
Wiko Suryo's group and the others continued to pass through the metropolis of Life City without hindrance. Occasionally, the police on duty on the street would block the road for the convoy. They saluted Ramon, who led the convoy.
It didn't take long before the convoy finally entered the city hall area. Their speed slowed, and a guard opened a large portal, allowing the convoy to enter.
"Please proceed, Mr. Ramon."
"Yes, Mr. Ramon."
Four portal guards raised their hands and saluted Ramon inside the official vehicle. Ramon nodded his head casually.
The group continued to explore the city hall area until they finally arrived at a magnificent 12-story government building supported by 124 sturdy pillars. In front of the building, a guard opened the car door and saluted Rimon, who was already waiting.
"Mr. Wiko, we have arrived."
"Princess Nita is waiting on the 8th floor. Please follow me," invited Rimon in a friendly tone, then led them to the entrance.
"Damn... I still can't believe Mr. Lein is also human," whispered the old man Tarno quietly.
"Yes, indeed, even the American alliance isn't as advanced and large as this," Dewi Anjani chimed in, agreeing. She admired every corner of the government building with great awe.
The guest group soon passed through the entrance and headed straight to the elevator to the 8th floor, the guest meeting area. Nita, Nayla, and others had been waiting for a few minutes.
In the elevator, Wiko Suryo felt uneasy; he appeared slightly nervous but tried to stay calm.
Ting...
The elevator doors opened. Rimon exited first, followed by Wiko's group. The floor they were on had an office design with blurred glass walls, beautiful flowers in the corners, and artistic paintings and sculptures.
Rimon led the way, guiding Wiko's group. They passed several rooms with people working at their computers.
"What? Assistant robots are everywhere!" Dewi Anjani whispered quietly.
She saw several servant robots walking along the corridor, carrying trays, cleaning tools, and other items. The robots were very friendly, stopping when someone was nearby, then continuing their journey once the person moved away.
"Mr. Wiko, everyone, we have arrived."
Rimon opened a door on the left. Inside, several people were already waiting.
"Thank you, Mr. Rimon," said Wiko Suryo, then walked into the room, followed by Dewi Anjani, Old Man Tarno, and Dika Mahendra. Their guards waited outside with Rimon.
"Hello everyone... Good afternoon"
Wiko Suryo greeted everyone in the room. Seven people were already seated there. At the end of the table sat Nita, with Nayla on her right and a muscular man on her left. Next to the muscular man was a large golden hammer standing beside him.
The other five people sat on the left side of the table; they were the district leaders of Life City. There were supposed to be nine, but not all could attend.
"Welcome, Mr. Wiko and company. Please, have a seat," Nita at the end of the table stood up, inviting the guests to sit.
Wiko Suryo and his group sat down. They felt nervous and worried. Their appearance showed helplessness, as if being scolded by parents without being able to retaliate.
They looked at the status of Nita and the muscular man beside her. "A Tier-3 soldier? Crazy..." Wiko Suryo muttered to himself.
[Status]
- Name: Cute Cat
- Race: Human from Blue Planet
- Power Core: System
- Rank: Tier-3
[Status]
- Name: Gusti Indra
- Race: Human from Blue Planet
- Power Core: System
- Rank: Tier-3
The man beside Nita was one of the 10 core members of the World Market Trade Alliance. As a core member, he received special treatment from Lein. Besides being a Tier-3 soldier, he also had a Vortex Plate sent by Lein.
"Ahem... First, I would like to thank Princess Nita, Mr. Gusti, and the other gentlemen for agreeing to this special meeting," Wiko Suryo opened the conversation.
"I did not expect the development of Life City to be so rapid and have reached this level," he continued. "This time, I am accompanied by the leader of the White Dove Alliance, Dewi Anjani," he went on to introduce the three other alliance leaders.
Nita observed the appearance of the four leaders of Wiko Suryo's group attentively. The first time she heard that Wiko Suryo's group had a hatred level 20% higher when passing through the check at the Teleportation Hub, she was quite angry. How could the leader of the Indonesian alliance, their place of origin, harbor hatred towards her island and her brother?
Nita's eyes passed over each member of Wiko Suryo's group. However, this time she suddenly stopped, a message appeared on her system chat panel, a message from Nayla.
- (Nayla): Their hatred level has decreased to 3% now, Princess.
"Hm... what's going on with these people?" Nita muttered.
