I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 1278 - A Worried Monarch

[Host. There's been a change of plans.]

'_'

....

Vrrrmmmmm~~~

Landon sat in the back seat of his vehicle, alongside Lucy, as they now made their way towards the Briefing hall for the big meeting.

This meeting and briefing event was a huge one scheduled to take place in a mutual location, which was within one of the government buildings that had the 6th largest Auditorium in all of Baymard.

You know, this briefing was in a way, a formal meeting which also involved members from various ministries like that of Health, would be attending as well.

Of course, since the Monarchs from other memories were here, it would also be good if they attended too.

This was an epidemic that could go global if any mistakes emerged.

So they were first going to give a presentation and general knowledge about the Zombie Virus.

And during this time while the fight for treatment was going on, merchants and several travellers should be the ones that had to be extra careful too.

Anyway, apart from role and responsibility appropriations, there were many things that had to be discussed in the meeting too.

That's why it was paramount for the many invited members to be in attendance for the matter.

Additionally, when the cure finally got made, they might need to import a lot more raw materials from some empires.

So it was just a heads up because during that time, everyone had to work efficiently and fast, just like how nations and countries back on earth worked hard to collectively find cures for several viruses in human history.

.

Well, they were now on their way to the meeting.

But unbeknownst to Lucy, Landon's mind wasn't particularly focused on the document in his hand.

'System, what do you mean?'

[Host... As I said, there's been a change of plans. And just this once, you've been rewarded 2 new alien technologies for all your hard work so far.]

Landon listened to the system and smirked in disbelief.

Hard work? Why notice his hard work only now?

Impossible!

It was impossible for this black-bellied system to be this kind all of a sudden.

So what was the catch here? What was all this about?

Heh.

As the saying goes, there was no free lunch in this world.

So he would be a fool to believe that these gifts wouldn't come with responsibilities.

And you know, the more he thought about it, the more his insides went to a state of chaotic frenzy.

His muscles clenched, and his arms now became riddled with goosebumps on this hot sunny day.

Danger. Danger... He could sense that soon enough, he would have to face something dangerous in the near future.

And this only made him feel paralyzed for a moment.

What was it?

What could it be that would make the system award him with not 1, but 2 alien technologies?

No.

Now, he wasn't annoyed about the system's intrusion anymore.

Why? Because he now felt as though the real fate of the entire Hertfilia might be riding on his victory in future.

So for his family, friends, his people and everyone else, he knew that only he could step up and protect them all!

.

'System... It's bad, isn't it.'

[Smart host. It is indeed what you humans say bad.]

Grim.

Landon's face turned grim with anxiety after picking up the heaviness of the matter from the system's time alone.

And during this time, his gloomy aura immediately caused the temperature in the vehicle to drop too.

"Hubby... What's wrong? What's the matter with you?"

Lucy also had goosebumps just from sitting next to Landon.

Wrong!

His entire aura made her feel as though she was swimming in ice water, which was ironic, seeing how hot the weather was outside.

Indeed.

Being a monarch wasn't an easy one at all.

And you know, even before she became Queen, her princess duties also caused her to think and worry a lot as well.

So imagine how much her poor husband had to think about?

He was the father of the nation, the ears to listen to everyone's concerns and worries.

So she understood just how much he had on his shoulders since she too had a lot to worry about as well.

But at this moment, she couldn't help worrying about whatever was troubling her darling husband now.

No! The worry and gloom emitting from him were so strong that she almost felt as though Baymard was about to get invaded at this very moment.

That was how heavy his aura was.

.

"Hubby... Husband, what's the matter?"

Eh?

Landon quickly shook his head and snapped out of his thoughts, only to come face to face with her worrisome gaze.

Sigh... Blame him for worrying his baby so much.

With a gentle touch, he ran his finger across her neck to her ears lovingly: "Wife. I'm fine... I'm just bothered about the virus matter. It seems to be a really troublesome issue altogether."

Lucy's eyes lit up in understanding since she too felt very panicked and terrified the first time Landon gave her a teaser on the matter.

Goodness! What would they do if Zalipnian or the entirety of Pyno got affected?

Lucy bit he is in worry, as now, she too had a grave expression on her face as well.

Landon looked at her and felt it funny.

~Flick.

He flicked her forehead playfully: "Wife, have I ever told you how pretty you look when you're serious?"

"_"

Shameless! Shameless!

She was married to a shameless man!

Lucy felt her face turn red after listening to Landon's sugar-coated mouth.

And sure enough, she had already forgotten about what she was worried about a few seconds ago.

The Zombie Virus?

What was that?

(?^?)

.

Phew.

Like so, Landon had finally managed to control himself and ease his worried wife in the process as well.

But deep down, he was still panicked more than anything else.

'System. Talk! Who or what exactly am I up against?'
