Chapter 57 Svetlana Plot

Christine walks to the Tyrants carcass, "All three Tyrant confirmed terminated" she spoke in front of the carcass.

Leon just shakes his head as he returns Nuibari to his space bag.

"Well, let 's finish the business. Once we removed Las Plagas threat, we could begin our plan" said Leon when he heard a gunshot in the back.

Without any word Leon ran back to the elevator room with Christine. Then he heard a man shout.

"God damn it that bitch" as Yin Zheng curses.

"What happened?" ask Leon.

"That woman, Ada Wong. She escaped. Using a sharpened steel fragment, she cut her rope and get away upstairs using a grappling hook"

Leon just roll his eyes while watching Svetlana "Don't bother, that woman has no value in our purpose"

"She also cut Svetlana rope" said Christine. Ying Zheng quickly point his gun to her, but Leon halt his act.

"Relax. I will not escape. There is no point for me to get away from here. I only want to know what's your plan with me" she asked.

Leon watch her with questionable eyes. Knowing how the rebels could control the Licker, he suspects she also has the ability to control the Tyrants. The Tyrants going rampaging after they defeat the soldier are not a coincidence. But he needed to find out if it was true.

"I want you to give a speech of your abdication as Eastern Slav President. You would give Ivan Judanovich the leadership of the country and you would cooperate with him to clean up Eastern Slav from Large scale monopoly group. If you want to stay alive and have some political future in Eastern Slav that is" said Leon to Svetlana close on her face.

Svetlana's response was "And why should I do that? We could have ruled this country together. You are strong, very strong. If you want to, you could rule this country with me"

Leon just smile, "While it seems tempting girl, but let just say I don't trust you"

Svetlana seems getting more daring "What can I do against you and your girl? With your ability and strength you could have anything, wealth, woman everything is in your hand. Although this is just a small country, but this is a country. The power of a nation is not something a company or a financial institution could compare. All those rich men, in the face of the power of a Nation, they are nothing"

Leon eyes goes sharp, "Tempting" as he reply to Svetlana. But to Christine another order was given through his ability "Tell Wolfe to keep Ivan and Moros stay in hiding. The negotiation is not complete! These bitch has more hidden hands"

"In front of your absolute strength why should you share your power" said Svetlana "Beside, you should check the condition of Ivan".

Christine replied "Wolfe just called back to me. A Tyrant was sighted moving to kill Elder Ivan. The Tyrant was finally killed by the Armored forces of Freedom Guard"

Svetlana eyes goes wide as she look at Leon with a strange recognition.

Leon smiled to that woman "Well, now we deal with Las Plagas" said Leon nonchalantly.

"You know my plan," said Svetlana vexed.

"I have suspected your plan," Leon answered as he walked. Well for sure he isn't interested in accepting Svetlana's proposition. He has no background, no foundation in this country. If he follows her demand, he would likely end up just eating and drinking, while the real power lies on that woman.

Not to mention, it is impossible to stay in this world indefinitely because of the System.

As they walk to the Laboratory, they see dozens of jars with Plagas on it.

"Impossible, we should have already destroyed it all in Spain" said Ying Zheng.

"Unfortunately, not thorough enough"

"Where do you get them!" Ying Zheng asked.

"Our Mining Tycoon bring it from Spain. When I was campaigning for Presidency he bring me here and asked what I could do with these"

"Your answer?" ask Leon.

"I would launch war and eradicate domestic opponent" said Svetlana, she giggles a big 'Who knows that they are included on that list"

"After that they give me total support. Money is just a numbers, so it was easy to gain people votes. I put hidden pressure on both sides so the riot erupted, once the riot erupted it was simple to create this war"

Soon a box of jars, filled with heads was shown "They are stupid, once the war erupted, it was easy to eliminate them. It would be easier to blame their demise to the Rebels. Once my plan was completed, there won't be EAstern Slav Republic, there would only be Eastern Slav Kingdom"

"Yet you destroy all my plans. You could be a King beside me. So how do you compensate for that? You should rule this country together with me. " she asked Leon.

Leon laughed hard. But he patted her head like a kid. For others the temptation to be a king is quite amazing. But Leon knows, Political world is quite cutthroat, people are sheep that could topple governments on a whim, no matter how strongly you try to appease or restrain them. His ideals is that a true ruler lies in the dark. A company could rule a nation behind the scene, leaving the public to rule themselves while influencing the society from the background.

"Ying Zheng, Christine, help me plan these explosives. This entire room should be destroyed so no biological remnants is salvageable"

"Not interested," Leon answered with a smile as he continued to plant explosives and incendiaries in the laboratory.

"Are you a Man?" she shouted.

"Now want to stay here, blasted to smithereen or obey my demand. Remind you that If you refuse to cooperate with me, I would make her" as Leon pointed to Christine "to replace you!"

Svetlana eyes was on fire, Leon received her stare with a nonchalant look. He already see that look each time he has to deal with some Daimyo Princess whose demand were not accepted, "Fine. I would order the Army to stand down. I would meet Ivan Judanovich"

Leon give the detonation device to Ying Zheng.

"Right now we need to hide the existence of this batch of Las Plagas Parasite. I believe some troubling people are staring at this batch of parasite. If they get their hand on any biological material, they could clone this parasite. Organize the report and evidence to proof that Neo Umbrella is the one who deliberately sell the Tyrant to Eastern Slav Republic as a Biological Weapon"

Ying Zheng nod "I could make a report to B.S.A.A on Ruikamir incident that Neo Umbrella is the one incite the civil war secretly. It would give us 24 hours, because in the matter of Biological Weapon incident, B.S.A.A have international influence. But are you sure you don't need reinforcement?"

"No. Our target is a nuclear Submarine that roams in Mediteranean Sea. We have traced that woman's position to that area. After we dealt with Eastern Slav domestic issues, destroying or capturing proof from the Submarine would end all this madness" said Leon to Ying Zheng.

Leon brought Svetlana with him, while Ying Zheng pushed the detonator as they left. Sound of an explosion was heard as the laboratory and incubation chamber for the parasite was destroyed.

After reaching outside Leon received a call. When he see the number, it came from Moros "So any problem on your part?" he asked.

"Eh you aren't beside your father?" Leon ask back.

"No. But thanks for your warning. We could deal with the Tyrant without exposing our Licker. But other elders are dead, only two of them survive including my father"

"So you don't rendezvous with your father then"

"No, as right now I am the Commander in Chief of Freedom Guard, my rank raised to Major General"

"I see"

"So I need your help on these coordinates….."
