Proposal to Reelect the President

"Today isn't our first day in the base, President. Areas F and E are indeed overcrowded, but I'm sure we can find a place in Areas C and D to temporarily replace the Superfunction Association hall? Otherwise, we can also use the open space here."

Chen Hua raised his voice again after seeing that a few people had been slightly convinced. There was no need for him to hesitate since he had already decided to join hands with Yun Che to pull down those fence-sitters from the government. The government had no right to do anything to the superfunction possessors even if he offended them.

"Exactly, we're fine with that. Moreover, we have no lack of earth and gold superfunction possessors in the base. I'm sure the rebuilding won't take long, and we can afford to wait a while. In the meantime, you can deal with the issues that are piling up."

"Didn't the military say that it would contract some land to us? We can take this opportunity to cultivate the land."

"That's wishful thinking. It's been so many days, but where's the land the military promised us? I think they're just taking us for a ride."

"Exactly…"

The superfunction possessors became more agitated with him sowing discord. The conversation went off topic, and the situation gradually got out of control. The president of the Superfunction Association panicked and kept wiping his sweat, but the members of Peak Squad who created the mess looked calm instead, and Heiyu had also shrunk himself back into a little puppy. Yun Che slowly took out a bottle of mineral water to wash Heiyu's paws before letting the latter climb onto him. He was now sitting on his shoulder, holding an energy bar with his front paws and chewing it happily. He looked extremely adorable and was nowhere near the bloody and brutal look he had earlier on.

"What's going on? What happened here?"

The Minister of Base Defense Jiang Wanshan finally arrived with a squad of soldiers, and his anxious voice was heard even before he appeared. The crowd on the road made way for them, and the minister walked over with his men. The moment he saw the debris of the Superfunction Association, he went weak in the knees and almost fainted. If his assistant next to him hadn't held on to him in time, he would have fallen to the ground.

"You…what exactly is going on?"

After finally recovering from the shock, Jiang Wanshan held his forehead and pointed his trembling finger at President Yang of the Superfunction Association. With his face all wrinkled up, the president told him exactly what had happened in a trembling voice. With all the superfunction possessors around, he didn't dare to downplay things and had to state the facts, but nothing about the idea he had had in mind was being mentioned.

"You fool!"

Jiang Wanshan yelled at the top of his voice after listening to him. How dare they provoke the members of Peak Squad? He had emphasized to them many times not to provoke Peak and Chaoyang, and to side with them when needed, but looked at what happened? He didn't stop Doomsday Shura when it was obviously trying to pick a fight, so what was the use of him crying over spilt milk now? Damn these idiots, now even he had no idea how to clean up the mess.

"Calm down, Jiang, you might get a heatstroke in this weather."

Yun Che broke his silence since the person who called the shots had appeared. He showed a faint smile on his face and even kindly offered him a bottle of mineral water, looking as though he was trying to please him, but everyone who knew him was aware that he must be up to something.

And Jiang Wanshan happened to be one of those who knew him. Seeing the smile on his face, Jiang Wanshan twitched his mouth and felt his body aching all over as he recalled the scene where Yun Che had easily dealt with the major general in the conference room. Jiang Wanshan smiled bitterly and sighed, "Captain Yun, as for what happened…"

He wouldn't be in such a fix if it had been the captain of other squads, with the exception of Chaoyang. The office of the Base Defense Department was already filled with Yun Che's files, and he heard that the military also feared him. General Wei Kan had personally ordered his men not to provoke him after he had made a scene at the Superfunction Association. Now it was Wang Army's turn, and the government might also get implicated. He was at a loss and could only sigh.

"You can't blame us for this, Jiang. On the contrary, I think you owe us an explanation. We are after all one of the best squads in the base, but no one from the Superfunction Association spoke up for us when Doomsday Shura bullied us time and again. Instead, President Yang appeared when we couldn't put up with them anymore and fought back. We couldn't possibly do nothing when Doomsday Shura attacked us, can we? Wasn't it obvious that President Yang wanted us dead when he tried to stop us? You'd better give me an explanation for this, Jiang, or don't blame me for making a scene."

Yun Che, who looked like he was joking at first, turned solemn as he spoke, and every word he said seemed to be cutting them up slowly. Not only was Jiang Wanshan's face twisted, President Yang was also on the verge of fainting from fear. A murderer was actually asking for redress, but they had no choice but to deal with it since his argument was supported by facts.

"I was just too anxious earlier on, Captain Yun, I really didn't mean to put the blame on you…"

With everyone around staring at him and Jiang Wanshan looking at him sternly, President Yang forced himself to speak up, but got sneered by Yun Che instead, "You can simply say anything you want now, isn't it? Aside from this, where were you when Doomsday Shura gave Peak Squad trouble? And what have you done when Joy and other squads gave you feedback? Captain Chen is right that the Superfunction Association exists because of us superfunction possessors, and you, the president, are our leader. Why do we still need you if you can't even stand up for us? You should just go home."

He had wanted to take things slowly, but they kept giving him opportunities to push things forward. The president must be from Mo Army!

Hearing his harsh words and thinking of its huge implications, Jiang Wanshan frowned, but was interrupted by Chen Hua again before he could speak, "Exactly. I think age is catching up on you, President Yang, why don't you just admit your mistakes and resign? The Superfunction Association is in this state because the leader is too weak. I personally think that we should choose someone who can hold his ground as the next president, take for example Major General Mo who led us on the quest to the provincial city."

"Captain Chen!"

Shaken up when his greatest fear came true, Jiang Wanshan gave him a look of disapproval. Lei Dashan added, "Major General Mo is a good choice. He treated us superfunction possessors very well during our quest, and he even shared the meat of five mutant wolves with everyone, but Wei Army's Major General Zeng even tried to stop Major General Mo from doing so."

"That's right, this has left a deep impression on us too. Of the three generals who went on the quest together, Wang Army's Major General Qian died early, Major General Zeng is extremely petty, and only Major General Mo is someone respectable."

"I have no objection to Major General Mo being our president."

"The same goes for us…"

The captains and members of the twenty squads who had been on quests together expressed their opinions. Those who hadn't interacted with Mo Wenyang before simply followed the crowd, and they didn't voice any objection seeing that everyone thought highly of Major General Mo. It was as though President Yang had already stepped down, and they were formally electing a new president. Jiang Wanshan's face turned even grimmer as he clenched his fists that were hidden by his sleeves hanging down. President Yang was terrified, for it didn't matter if he wasn't the president, but he would be dead meat if the position was taken over by Mo Army because of his blunder.

Yun Che and the members of Peak Squad kept quiet at this time. The reason why everyone was united was because Chen Hua and Lei Dashan were the ones who proposed for Mo Wenyang to be the president. If anyone from Peak Squad said anything more, others would be reminded of their relationship with Mo Army, and their plan could backfire

"Silence please, everyone please listen to me."

After finally controlling his emotions, Jiang Wanshan waved his hands to calm everyone down, saying only after everyone had quietened down, "We will definitely deal with President Yang's issue seriously, and we won't turn a blind eye to Peak Squad's sufferings. But changing the president is not a trivial matter, and we can't make a hasty decision on that. I'm now aware of everyone's opinions and I will reflect them factually to the top management. Please calm down and cooperate with us in solving the issues in a sensible manner."

Jiang Wanshan hadn't been the district secretary before the doomsday for nothing, for he was indeed good at solving problems. His talent was put into good use as the Minister of Base Defense, but…

"Minister Jiang, we should cooperate with you by right, but the president you chose has already let us down, are you going to let us down again? Like what I've said earlier, the Superfunction Association exists because of us superfunction possessors, so why can't we elect as president a candidate of our choice?"

Chen Hua wouldn't normally go against Jiang Wanshan, but he had no reason to hesitate anymore since he had already chosen his side, and he couldn't let this great opportunity slip away.

"Sounds good to me, why don't we do this? Didn't we have democratic elections before the doomsday? Let's hold a fair and open democratic election. Other than the government and military personnels, all superfunction possessors in the base will have the right to vote, and whoever has the highest number of votes shall be the president. As for the candidates, I think the government shouldn't name anyone so as not to affect our judgment. We will write the name of the person we support on paper and drop it into a ballot box."

Lei Dashan quickly gave a suggestion, seeming as though he had already come up with it long ago.

"I agree with that. Captain Chen is right. We superfunction possessors should have the right to vote for the president of the Superfunction Association."

"Then wouldn't I also have the chance to run for the election?"

"Haha…you? Forget it, Chaoyang and Peak have yet to speak."

"That's true. Given a choice, I would think Captain Yun is the most suitable candidate. Although Chaoyang ranks higher, Captain Xing is too busy and has less time to personally do quests. Captain Yun is more down to earth, and he's great at fighting!"

"Sounds good. Why don't you go for it, Captain Yun? All of us will support you!"

"Yes…"

Although it was a good suggestion, it wasn't the way things should turn out. Ignoring the grim faces of Jiang Wanshan and his subordinates, the superfunction possessors gathered together and wanted Yun Che to run for the election, and even Yun Che himself didn't expect this sudden twist.
