Chapter 224: The Aftermath

Alexei put the telephone back on its cradle after receiving news from the Military Eastern District Strategic Command Headquarters.

He slowly turned and looked Alexander in the eye and raised a thumbs up, indicating that the operation was a success.

The generals and the civilian staff in the Command Ops cheered and clapped upon hearing the news, but Alexander remained expressionless, seemingly not satisfied with the whole ordeal. He just authorized an operation that could potentially kill thousands of lives. This signifies that he is not a private individual who makes weapons for the government and uses it to take lives, he is now the government with the power to use the technology he introduced to take the lives of others.

He let that thought sink in before joining his subordinates.

The cheers went on until Alexander raised a hand, stopping them from celebrating further.
