The sudden turn of events was probably because of something major that happened.


    The head of security, Harry, quickly came to Brandon and whispered in his ear. Brandon instantly looked worried, and he hurriedly looked at Wilbur.


    "What''s wrong?" asked Wilbur while frowning.


    Brandon did not care that there were bystanders. He quickly replied, "There are thousands of armed men surrounding the stadium, and they circling in on us. Our squad had retreated, and all phone signals were cut off."


    Wilbur checked his phone. His phone, which had the satellite function, also lost its signal.


    "Is this an armed coup?" asked Wilbur while looking at Brandon.


    With thousands of armed men attacking the stadium where the president was and having all signals cut off, there was a high probability of an armed coup.


    Brandon nodded and replied, "It should be. ording to our sources, the Fastes are behind this. Their leader is the minister of defense, Abar Faste. They are a powerful family in Morburn. Most of them are in the army."


    "It seems they came prepared," said Wilbur nonchntly.


    Brandon frowned and said anxiously, "They dared to stage a coup because Atrus Wood is dead. I underestimated them."


    "Don''t worry, Mister President. We have Mister Wilbur Penn with us. They can''t threaten your safety," said Dillon while observing Wilbur carefully.


    Wilbur smiled and said, "Don''t worry. We are friends now. I naturally won''t stand idly by if anything happens to you."


    Brandon instantly let out a long sigh of relief and said gratefully, "Thank goodness you''re here, sir. Otherwise, I wouldn''t know what to do. You know, in order to meet you in time, I didn''t have time to deployprehensive security."


    Wilbur smiled. Meanwhile, the news quickly spread in the banquet hall.


    Everyone was shocked and in disbelief.


    They could not believe that there was an armed coup at the stadium. It was breaking news, and it severely threatened their safety.


    The directors and celebrities looked frightened. They did not know what to do and they were panicking.


    Ja was also stunned because the special agents blocked the exit. They did not allow anyone to enter or leave anymore.


    She was shocked and terrified. She could not believe she encountered something so terrifying and wondered if she could even make it out alive.


    Brandon immediately yelled when he saw the crowd panicking, "Be quiet! Mister Wilbur Penn is an Emperor level cultivator. He''s here with us, so the armed coup is nothing more than a joke."


    Everyone there was an elite social figure, so they were aware of cultivators.


    They could not believe that Wilbur was an Emperor level cultivator. They instantly rxed and let out long sighs of relief.


    Suddenly, two special agents rushed over to Brandon and tried to whisper.


    Brandon wanted to act calm and fearless to not cause panic to the people. He wanted to show that he was in control, so he said loudly, "Just say it."


    "We have something to report. ording to reconnaissance, two destroyers and three frigates have left the Royal Fleet without authorization and have reached the waters near Morburn." The special agent had no choice but to say it out loud.


    Everyone instantly panicked when they heard that.


    That would be five warships. ''Even if he''s the most powerful Emperor level cultivator, can he withstand naval guns? That''s impossible, right?'' they thought.


    The banquet hall fell into panic again. Someone peed their pants and fainted due to extreme fear.
