Chapter 1786 Changing People’s Opinion
*Hiss!*
The room fell silent as the host was surprised that the expert would blame the Vice President. However, he could somehow understand why he thought that way.
Although it could be called slander, they had proven that the Vice President was the one bringing the monsters inside.
However, it was a very sensitive topic.
As a host, he didn't have much time to think, so he hurriedly replied, "I'm sorry, but the Vice President hasn't received his trial yet, so I can't say much about him. We're threading in a very dangerous zone."
"I'm merely speaking my opinion. Of course, it'll be better if we can get the reasons immediately, considering this battle has involved three World Class Monsters." The expert shrugged. "I also had seen the video about the confrontation between the government and Maya Hamilton.
"It's not that I don't believe in the Time God, but do you think it's possible for the Time God to stop three World Class Monsters at once?"
The host was tongue-tied. Although he didn't want to admit it, Theo had done a great job in stopping two World Class Monsters and befriending another.
He had never heard of the Time God having a relationship with a World Class Monster, so if he was in his position, the Time God might only be able to stop one or two of them while the other razed the base to the ground.
He also remembered one more thing from that conversation. "Mr. Albert. Are you talking about Mr. Theodore Griffith leaving the base?"
"Yes. He has done it once, so he can do it again." He nodded with a serious expression. "When that happens, there will only be the Time God to protect us. It'll be a problem if we're besieged by multiple World Class Monsters, especially if they come in different directions.
"That's why I have to agree with Sir Haivan here. I'm slightly disappointed by the government's stance. When he was protecting the base, the government tried to harm his people.
"Instead of thinking about the culprit, I think they should be thinking about how to stop Theo from leaving.
"If you look at this situation, the moment he leaves this place, Maya Hamilton will most likely go with him. After all, the government is using the turrets as an excuse to seize her company.
"And from his current track record, he will go to United Asia after this. There, he has a lot of friends, such as the Heavenly Sovereign and the Sword Saint.
"With the addition of him and Maya Hamilton, it won't be weird for United Asia to become the pioneer in this new world. I don't know how much this is true, but I've heard he has the backing of the Mafia Queen as well, but that's just a rumor. If that is true, then no one can contend against United Asia."
The people who were watching this live discussion gasped.
They almost forgot that Theo didn't have any reasons to stay other than Maya and his kindness. Since the government had locked up her company, Maya wouldn't hesitate to leave this place.
There was one more thing they needed from Theo aside from his protection. It was his ability to increase the skill rank.
If such a person left, the base would gradually decline. There were simply too many monsters around them, ready to take them down.
So, the government had to play carefully this time. If they pissed Theo off, no one could stop Theo from leaving. Even if the Time God was stronger, Theo could easily outplay him with his brain.
This was the message Albert, the neutral expert, wanted to give to everyone.
People gasped and couldn't help but comment.
"We have to spread this information to the entire base."
"If we don't have Theodore Griffith, we will experience a nightmare."
"Does he not care about the innocent people living here?"
"Idiot. He has been protecting all of them here, only to be backstabbed by the government."
"Is there any demonstration to get justice from the government?"
The live discussion wasn't broadcast on their channel alone. It was also streamed on Skytube and other platforms to spread awareness.
And people, who watched it, thought the same thing. The government had been condemning Theo before, making him look bad. Most of them believed it because of the turrets.
However, the turrets had been destroyed by Theo... The same turrets that helped Theo stop multiple World Class Monsters. So, the government had no more reasons other than clinging to their laws.
After that one show, the people started questioning the government. It might be like what Maya said in the confrontation.
When Theo was trying to save them, the government was doing their best to get a hold of his weakness so that they could use him as they pleased.
On the one hand, they agreed that if Theo wasn't restrained by the government, he could become the same person that destroyed them. On the other hand, Theo's actions this whole time were that of a hero. He had been helping people despite being betrayed over and over again.
So, they couldn't blame Theo for leaving. That was why they had to give a reason for Theo to stay.
The government might try to harm him, but if the people fought for him, the government might need to stop their plan.
That was why the people were asking each other to go to the street and protest Theo's treatment.
However, there was one more question that the government had to answer. And it was the trial for the Vice President.
It was supposed to be held tomorrow, but there was a problem.
"This is not good." A minister entered the room and gave him a message. "Mr. President. We have a huge problem."
"A huge problem? I'm already busy dealing with all these people questioning me."
"But this is a serious problem, Sir." The minister gulped down before stating with a pale face. "The Vice President has gone missing."
