Chapter 1157 - The Helpless Survivors (2/2)
The words of the old man made the eyes of everyone in the room turn brighter.
Although Wanghai was thousands of kilometers away from here, everyone in the room has heard of the legendary NAC. Even if they could forget the name of the NAC General, they would never forget the taste of the Fishbone’s canned food…
NAC’s products in the market outside of the Pan-Asia Cooperation Building were among the best-selling goods.
The archbishop of the Guardian Sect would not be lie.
If NAC were here, then they would have a fighting chance against the CCCP!
While the faces around the table were full of excitement, only Ding Liwei remained rationale.
“Reinforcement? I’m afraid this reinforcement is not free?”
“Yes.” Archbishop Xu Tiannan nodded as he helplessly said, “What if it is not free? Do we still have a opportunity to bargain?”
Ding Liwei’s expression was a bit stiff, and he soon let out a sigh.
Yes, can they really bargain?
Xu Tiannan hesitantly said.
“Just…”
“Just?” Wan Peng frowned.
“Just that Wanghai is thousands of kilometers away from Shangjing. Even if they want to help us, it’s going to be a dangerous journey here. Even when they arrive, I’m afraid it’s going to be too late.” Xu Tiannan smiled bitterly.
Everyone felt as if they fell from cloud nine to the bottom of the valley in a split second.
Many of them owned merchants’ fleets and they naturally understood the dangers in this journey. Even without considering the zombies and mutants, there were countless raiders.
When the NAC reinforcements cross the Yellow River, the Shangjing Survivors Alliance would already become CCCP prisoners.
Just then, there were eager footsteps outside the conference room.
Everyone’s heart clenched.
Did the CCCP already launch a strike?
The door of the conference room opened. A bodyguard walked in and whispered to Ding Liwei.
Ding Liwei’s expression didn’t change. After listening to the bodyguard, he ordered.
“Let him in.”
“Yes.” The bodyguard nodded and left the meeting room.
Soon, a guard ran into the conference room, gasping for air.
In front of the leaders, he lowered his head in fear before quickly articulating what he needed to say. He was speaking so fast that he almost bit his tongue.
“Report! There are a lot of airships in the airspace 20 kilometers away from Shangjing!”
Everyone was shocked.
“Airships?” Xu Tiannan was also shocked, but soon, his shock was replaced with ecstasy.
He suddenly thought of the news from Bishop Lu Minghui. NAC used airships as a means of transportation in the trade routes to Hongcheng and Yizhou Island. In addition, they also built a giant airship made of steel!
Xu Tiannan quivered as he stood up. He left the conference table and walked to the guard in excitement.
“Which direction are the airships coming from! Tell me now!”
The guard stuttered as he looked at the archbishop.
“From… from the South!”
South!
The direction of Wanghai!
The direction of NAC!
Xu Tiannan’s shoulders trembled with excitement, and the aged face turned red.
Shangjing can be saved!
