Three days later in the morning, the central square in the East City area of ​​the Fifth Ring Road was already packed with people. The scene was extremely spectacular with the surging crowds.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, mechanical warriors escorted groups of prisoners tightly bound with chains, slowly walking towards the center of the square, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn and tense.

At the beginning, the people around were able to maintain order and remain relatively quiet.

However, as the number of prisoners being escorted continued to increase, especially when six ministers in important positions were also escorted in one by one, the public's emotions were finally completely ignited.

They began to curse loudly and fiercely, and their angry voices echoed over the square for a long time, like surging waves that could not be calmed down.

Time passed quietly until three hours had passed.

There were nearly 10,000 prisoners being escorted to the square, but the angry onlookers not only did not disperse, but instead gathered like a tide, and the momentum was growing stronger.

At this moment, a young figure slowly emerged in the air in the center of the square.

All of a sudden, everyone seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force and they became quiet involuntarily, with all their eyes fixed on this figure that seemed both familiar and strange.

The Security Council is definitely the most mysterious institution in the security zone.

The power of the five council members is unfathomable. Ten years ago, during the darkest and most chaotic period, they defeated the demon army that attempted to destroy the world.

But since then, these five people seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, disappeared from the sight of the world and have never appeared again.

The feelings of most people towards the Security Council are actually quite complicated.

On the one hand, they created safe zones, providing a shelter for surviving humans and allowing life to continue in an extremely harsh environment.

However, on the other hand, the public is also disappointed and angry with the day-to-day management of its members.

The Council adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards the governance of the security zone, resulting in a lack of effective supervision of officials in the Second Ring Area, rampant corruption, disregard for human life, and an endless stream of criminal acts.

Especially in recent years, people's living conditions have been deteriorating and the population has been decreasing, but the Security Council has still not shown up. This inevitably makes many people feel dissatisfied and resentful.

At this moment, the legendary highest commander of the security zone suddenly appeared in front of countless people in an unexpected way, causing an inexplicable expectation in everyone's hearts.

Li Ming looked around, his eyes moving around on everyone, and then he spoke slowly.

Although his voice was not loud, it clearly penetrated everyone's heart.

"As the nominal and actual chief of the security zone, I have not fulfilled my duties."

"For a long time, I have basically not asked about the various affairs of the safe zone in depth."

"This is partly because I don't like to get involved in management, but also because of some objective factors that prevent me from devoting my energy to the affairs of the safe zone."

"Specifically, as members of the Security Council, we need to fulfill our obligations to travel to other worlds on a regular basis to fight."

“Our expedition lasted too long this time, causing the power structure in the safe zone to lose control, bringing great suffering to countless people.”

“This is something our Security Council must examine deeply.”

"Therefore, in order to prevent similar situations from happening again, the safe zone will undergo a series of major reforms, which will be announced in detail by the Information Tower later."

Having said this, he paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to the nearly 10,000 prisoners who were tightly bound with chains in the center of the square.

"Next, as the highest official of the safety zone, I will make a formal judgment on the following individuals in accordance with the safety zone's general regulations."

"Xu Qingping, former head of the combat command, abused his power, eliminated dissidents, and brutally murdered his colleagues, resulting in the deaths of 32 senior officials."

"He was extremely greedy and illegally embezzled up to two million boxes of energy potions. Other stolen goods were countless, causing countless people to starve to death due to lack of survival resources."

"He indulged his son Xu Yang and his subordinates in wanton acts, not only turning a blind eye to their criminal behavior, but even providing shelter for their large-scale kidnappings to satisfy their selfish desires."

"..."

"There are too many crimes to list."

"According to the general regulations of the safety zone, I officially declare that Xu Qingping will be deprived of all his rights and sentenced to public death immediately!"

As soon as Li Ming finished speaking, countless people burst into thunderous cheers, one wave higher than the other, deafening.

At that moment, all doubts and suspicions about the Security Council disappeared.

After careful consideration, it is not difficult to understand that the safe zone was created by the five members of the council.

If they really had no regard for the survival of ordinary humans, why would they bother to build such a shelter?

Therefore, the reason why the safe zone fell into darkness and chaos was, on the one hand, because the threat of the demon army gradually weakened, making the internal management problems gradually prominent.

On the other hand, the members of the Security Zone Council spent too long fighting abroad, so that the sword of Damocles that was originally hanging over the heads of officials no longer existed, resulting in the loss of control of high-level power.

Fortunately, all these sufferings have finally come to an end.

The members of the Safe Zone Council have returned, and not only have they arrested nearly 10,000 criminals with lightning speed, they have also promised to make major changes to ensure that such incidents never happen again.

Li Ming's cold voice still echoed in the air, penetrating everyone's heart.

"Xu Qingping's subordinates and their accomplices, including Xu Yang, Liu Mei, Zhang Zhonghai, Yan Hui, Brinton and others..."

"The above total of 135 criminals, according to the general regulations of the security zone, are sentenced to deprivation of all their rights and immediate public execution!"

The emotions of countless onlookers were ignited again, and they broke out into overwhelming cheers.

"The former head of the Intelligence and Reconnaissance Department, Jiang Yishi, abused his power, illegally conducted surveillance activities, and cruelly deprived others of their right to life, directly resulting in the deaths of 67 officials and 351 security zone staff."

"Being greedy by nature, they illegally seized 1.2 million boxes of energy potions and other important supplies..."

"He condoned his relatives and subordinates to engage in criminal activities, which seriously undermined the order and stability of the security zone..."

"According to the general regulations of the safety zone, a sentence is now passed on Jiang Yishi and his relatives and subordinates Jiang Yimu, Jiang Huahua, Jiang Yongtian, Chen Qing, and a total of 97 criminals."

"Deprive them of all their rights and carry out a public execution immediately!"

After saying this, Li Ming paused for a moment, then turned his calm gaze to Bai Tongmeng and continued speaking.

"The former head of the Organization and Personnel Department, Bai Tongmeng, abused his power and openly placed his cronies in the official system at all levels to suppress dissidents..."

"He is greedy and has illegally seized 1.5 million boxes of energy potions and countless other important supplies..."

"He condoned his family members to engage in various criminal activities and regarded the public interest as a sacrifice for the family's selfish desires..."

"According to the general regulations of the security zone, a sentence is now passed on Bai Tongmeng and his relatives, his subordinates Bai Zhengxiong, Bai Hui, Bai Weixin, Li Caihua, etc., a total of 122 criminals."

"Deprive them of all their rights and carry out a public execution immediately!"
