Chapter 253: Chapter 121: Arranging a Way Out_2 Chapter 253: Chapter 121: Arranging a Way Out_2 “Alright,” Xu Mo did not refuse.
A group of people got into a car and drove away.
On the streets of Steel Dome City, people could be seen parading from time to time.
The turmoil from a few days ago had not subsided, and now the election for the new mayor was underway, making the entire Steel Dome City seem exceptionally bustling.
On the steel buildings lining the street, screens were filled with Byrons’s showy propaganda.
Then, the screens switched to show the same scene on all displays.
For a moment, countless citizens of Steel Dome City looked up to the screens.
The news seemed to be true.
Nan Mingyuan was aiming for the position of mayor.
Xu Mo also saw the figure on the screen, Dean Nanming appeared in front of the camera with Nan Mingyuan at Nanming Academy.

Nanming Huowu was there too.
Dean Nanming was highly respected.
Nanming Huowu, a woman favored by heaven, an S-grade prodigious talent, both had extremely high popularity in Steel Dome City.

Now, the son of Dean Nanming and father of Nanming Huowu, the executive dean of Nanming Academy Nan Mingyuan, announced his candidacy for mayor.
For a time, Steel Dome City shuddered.
After that, the scene switched, showing various powers announcing their support for Nan Mingyuan, starting with the collective support of the academies.
If Nan Mingyuan took on the position of mayor, the Academy Faction would naturally be reassured.
Afterwards, the young man with the surname Li still appeared as a mysterious person, expressing his support for Nan Mingyuan to become mayor, and stating that if Nan Mingyuan was successfully elected, he would reveal his identity and pursue Nanming Huowu publicly.
Immediately, this sparked a great deal of heated discussion.
With support from all sides, Nan Mingyuan’s popularity soared, and he had a very high call among the public.
Xu Mo saw the scenes on the screens outside and felt a trace of unease within him.
When he heard that Nan Mingyuan was entering the election, he already vaguely felt something was off.
Now, seeing the young man with the surname Li openly stepping out, this feeling of unease grew stronger.
Playing with fire!
Dean Nanming seemed to be making a risky move.
Although this move could have a greater chance of advancing Nan Mingyuan.
Nan Mingyuan, the biological son of Dean Nanming, would surely be much better than a financial tycoon like Byrons, right?
Dean Nanming naturally trusted his own son.
But can Nan Mingyuan really be trusted?
“Senior brother, if we lose this time, what will become of the Southwest Military District?” Xu Mo asked Sloan sitting beside him.
“Previously, the Southwest Military District had, in a sense, already undergone an uprising.
It was only because the Academy Faction and the Military District partnered up that the other side had to compromise.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have tolerated us.
If we fail, I don’t know about others, but…” Sloan said with a grave expression, “Commander Qiu, they definitely won’t let him off.”
Xu Mo could feel the seriousness in Sloan’s tone.
Uprising, huh!
Which ruler could ever tolerate that since ancient times?
An insubordinate military is the most dangerous and unforgivable.
Commander Qiu’s previous actions were essentially a gamble with his life and fortune.
“Don’t feel too guilty.
After all, without you last time, our defense line would have been breached, and the Southwest Military District would probably have been overtaken.
So, you don’t owe the Southwest Military District anything,” Sloan said.
“It’s different,” Xu Mo responded, insisting that the two situations were not comparable.
“Moreover, if it really comes to the worst, we could just take our troops into the ruins and feed on the monsters.
We can still survive, making our way through the ruins to other cities,” Sloan continued, quite carefree about it.
If the government of Steel Dome City didn’t change, then there wasn’t much to miss.
If it came to it, they would fight; if that didn’t work, they would take the troops and leave.
“Right, senior brother, remind Commander Qiu to be ready to adapt at any time,” Xu Mo said.
Sloan was taken aback and then nodded with a serious expression.
Did Xu Mo think they were going to lose this time?
The car’s atmosphere turned somewhat somber.
Xu Mo looked outside at the streets of Steel Dome City.
The vehicle stopped in front of a glittering golden building, where many people had gathered today.
This was the largest concert hall in Steel Dome City.
The people of Steel Dome City did not pursue art with fervor, but there still existed a foundation for it.
Miss Ian, who recently became a goddess-level figure in Steel Dome City, was set to perform at the concert hall today, drawing countless citizens to attend.
Particularly those who had been touched by Ian’s music wanted to listen to Miss Ian’s playing live.
The grand concert hall could accommodate thousands of people.
Xu Mo entered and quietly sat down in a seat,
After waiting a moment, the crowd gradually took their seats and quieted down.
Then, the lights dimmed, leaving only a single spotlight on the stage.
Under that spotlight, a pure and flawless woman in a white dress, an Angel in her purity, took the stage.
She was so pristine, untouched by even a speck of impurity.
“Miss Ian.” The concert hall was exceptionally quiet.
Countless gazes fell upon the woman on the stage.
Miss Ian seemed like a gift from heaven, bringing them peace.
In such times, to have someone so pure was like having a real Angel.
The woman sat quietly at the piano, and as the keys sounded, she instantly transported the audience into that state of mind.
Xu Mo watched the woman on the stage, a faint smile appearing in his eyes.
Miss Mia was still the same as before, pure and beautiful.
If only she could always be this way, Miss Mia, a carefree musician, playing beautiful music…
