This is truly shocking.
"You should know what I'm about to say. Yes, I've seen a comrade. Although he's on the path of the Deceit Tower, I'm very clear that his strength will catch up to me."
Despite most people present not liking Albert, Albert was able to make these people listen to him seriously, based solely on his strength.
No one denied Albert's strength.
So when Albert mentioned that Wen Xishu would catch up to him, everyone looked incredulous.
Albert didn't care:
"I have to wait for this little guy. Since that's the case, I also have some time to manage the Bunker."
"I hate religion, but religion is the easiest way to give hope to the people at the bottom. You have deprived them of too much hope. Now, there is such an institution that can quickly give them hope, and I think it's not bad."
"After all, making them believe in a church that can drive away disease and bring vitality during moments of despair is better than having them believe in an institution that, at critical moments, closes the pathways to block their way."
"Therefore, I recognize the status of the Xishu Divine Teaching."
"I will repeat, Wen Xishu will permanently serve as a special advisor to the Bunker Security Bureau, with a rank above all bureau chiefs. Additionally, Wen Xishu will have access to all levels and all facility usage permissions."
"Also, in this conference room, Wen Xishu can sit at the same table as you."
"Additionally, regarding the Three Towers Academy, I will appoint Wen Xishu as the dean of the newly established Deceit Tower Academy, with power equal to mine."
"Of course, the affairs of the Three Towers Academy don't need to be reported to you. But since we're talking about it, I'll just mention it."
"Oh, in fact, all the previous decisions, I'm just informing you."
Albert had a very friendly smile:
"Simply put, when the orange vortex falls and the cheers of all the people from the lowest level echo throughout the Bunker—"
"Whether in civil society, in politics, or academia, I want Wen Xishu to have a status above everyone. I hope you understand that what he is about to do next is, like me, to keep climbing the tower."
"All the bullshit power struggles within the Bunker, get out of my sight."
Once again, the room fell into silence, once again, not a sound was heard.
This time, even the second bureau chief couldn't help but sweat. Is the old principal being too ruthless? This is essentially creating a god?
A being on the same level as the Five Elders?
Would the Five Elders agree to this?
It's too outrageous.
Even though there was already some judgment about the old principal's wildness, actually seeing the old principal confronting the Five Elders... still left everyone in shock at this old man's boldness.
Liu Zhizai coldly said:
"This is outrageous! Albert! Do you think the Bunker's system is a joke? Do you know what you're doing? We fought fiercely in the Slaughter Tower to earn our current status!"
"We fought our way to nearly the 90th floor! The peace of this Bunker can be said to be gained through our bloody battles!"
"What do you take our dignity for?"
Albert shrugged:
"Your dignity is worthless, Liu Zhizai. You were just a little lackey following behind Old Jin, don't pretend to be a real hero of the Bunker."
"Back then, Old Jin and I didn't like your original name Yagyū Naoya, so you changed it to Liu Zhizai to please Old Jin. Your sycophantic attitude, I haven't forgotten."
Although Liu Zhizai was old, being humiliated like this, he still blushed with anger, wanting to draw his sword.
At this moment, the situation was clearly out of control.
Albert stood up.
A huge sense of oppression made everyone breathless:
"You can continue to guard your past merits. But when new forces try to surpass you, it's best not to attempt to stop them."
"Don't mistake Old Jin's power for your own."
"My tolerance for Old Jin's old followers also has a limit."
Long ago, Albert was stuck on the 96th floor.
At that time, to a few elders who had only been to the 90th floor but had never truly climbed it, they all thought... Albert's talents were limited.
Without Mr. Jin's help, the structure of the Bunker would remain forever.
And they had already ruled the Bunker for a very long time, for so long they had not felt a sense of crisis, for so long no one had defied them.
The past reverence for Albert seemed like something from the last century.
So they almost forgot...
Once upon a time, Albert was a genius in battle.
The few elders, with Mr. Jin's help, also hid in the Celestial Ladder List and had the same Three Towers power that Albert could bring into the Bunker.
That was also their foundation for ruling the Bunker.
But at this moment, including Evelyn, everyone felt the palpable pressure.
Albert's facial expression didn't change, but the pressure he emitted made everyone feel fear, including the elders.
"I will repeat, I am informing, not negotiating. A bunch of lackeys behind Old Jin, you don't really think you qualify to sit at the same table with me, do you?"
In fact, a long time ago, Luo Feng was curious...
How strong Albert really was, whether a few elders combined could defeat Albert?
Four super powerful figures at over eighty floors against one top figure at over ninety floors, it seemed... that should also work?
