Chapter 36: Someone is going to the moon to find hope? Let’s go back a few hours ago… Beijing. in the office. Yang Yu sat on the chair, staring at the table, motionless. He has maintained this posture all night. When the morning light shone on the earth, hurried footsteps were heard outside the office door, followed by a knock on the door. "Enter!" Yang Yu finally raised his head, revealing a tired and ugly face. The person who came in was his secretary.
"Minister, the casualties in various places last night have been preliminarily counted..." The secretary said as he handed over the document in his hand. Yang Yu just took a glance and his face turned pale. The numbers on it were really too shocking! Seeing that the secretary seemed to be hesitant to speak, Yang Yu asked, "Anything else?" The secretary immediately said, "It's the General Staff Department, and they need you to go over for a meeting." Hearing this, Yang Yu took a deep breath, stood up and walked outside. However, he had just taken two steps when he stumbled. If the secretary next to him hadn't been quick to catch him, he would have almost fallen. "Minister, what's wrong with you?" "It's okay!" Yang Yu waved his hand and said, "Let's go!" He's just old and his body can't handle staying up late. After a while. Yang Yu came to the meeting room of the General Staff. When he arrived, many bigwigs were already sitting in the conference room, and their status was no lower than his. Many of them looked similar to Yang Yu, and they probably had a hard time last night too. Yang Yu nodded to the people he knew, found his own seats and sat down. Not long after, the last boss arrived. "Now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting!" The leader sitting in the main seat lit a cigarette to refresh himself, and then said: "I believe you all know what happened last night, so I won't repeat it... I called you here today to listen to your ideas. How can we prevent such a situation in the future?" As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the conference room frowned.
It is indeed necessary to take precautions in advance. After all, no one can guarantee that what happened last night will not happen again. However, how to prevent it is a big problem. The space-time rifts that suddenly appeared last night are almost all over the world. Moreover, this thing does not seem like a missile fired by an enemy country, whose trajectory can be calculated in advance by a computer and then anti-aircraft missiles can be launched to intercept it. The appearance of space-time cracks is mysterious and difficult to predict. No one knows how they appear or disappear. In other words, the air defense missile system has little effect on the space-time rift. Then we can only rely on people. However, with the military's existing strength, it is impossible to deploy it across the entire country. Everybody is a soldier? Give guns to ordinary people for self-protection? This is even more unrealistic. Not to mention that those monsters are immune to bullet damage. If we really do this, I'm afraid that before the monsters even arrive, chaos will already break out inside. Everyone suddenly realized that facing this mysterious and terrifying monster, the previous conventional methods were almost useless. Soon, someone thought of the warlocks who had performed brilliantly last night. "The monsters that appeared last night are different from the monsters on the front lines. They have stronger self-healing abilities. Ordinary thermal weapons are no longer effective against them. The only way to kill them is to destroy their bodies in an instant." A general said, "Among our weapons, the only ones that can do this are our heavy artillery and missiles. With our current equipment and manpower, it is impossible to deploy them across the country." "As for precision strikes... those cracks appear and disappear mysteriously, and we don't even know the patterns of their appearance, so it's even more impossible to do it." "However, I heard that during last night's monster invasion, the warlocks performed very well. Their abilities are just enough to restrain the monsters!" "I think we should pay more attention to the warlock community, expand the Warlock Administration, and recruit warlocks on a large scale. Then we should set up branches all over the country, and each branch should send a certain number of warlocks to serve as a defense force!" After the general finished speaking, everyone present nodded. Everyone’s opinions are actually similar. The military now needs to defend the front line and does not have much spare energy to take care of the rear. The only ones they can rely on now are the newly rising warlocks. The leader sitting in the main seat also nodded. He had actually thought of this a long time ago, and the reason he brought it up at the meeting was just to seek everyone's consent... This is the capital city, and there are big guys watching over us. We absolutely cannot allow one person to have the final say! Now that everyone has reached a consensus, all we need to do next is discuss in this direction. Everyone discussed the details of the regulations and gradually optimized the functions of the Warlock Administration... After the discussion on this topic was over, suddenly, a senior official in charge of the intelligence department said, "I received news that the top leaders of the Ugly Country plan to launch a probe to the moon in the near future!" "They believe that the monsters are endless and getting stronger and stronger. Sooner or later, Blue Planet will be conquered by the monsters and become a paradise for them." "The only way to survive is on the moon!" "Perhaps it was the signals released by the alien civilization twice before that made them think that the alien civilization on the moon is an ally, coming to help humans. Therefore, they are preparing to launch a probe again to seek more help!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Many big guys immediately frowned and looked unhappy. If Chou Country's plan succeeds, the impact will be huge, which is definitely not good news for Yan Country. What's even more terrifying is that if the Ugly Country succeeds in winning over alien civilizations and makes them give them special care, then there will be big trouble... At this point, even if some people are still unwilling to accept it, they have to admit that the alien civilization on the moon is extremely important to the humans on the blue planet! ! It was them who transformed the environment of Blue Star, allowing the emergence of the group of warlocks among the humans of Blue Star. It was also them who issued warnings in advance, allowing the military to be prepared, so that they were not caught off guard by the monsters... Recently, countless secret arts have been passed down, allowing sorcerers to possess extraordinary combat power, which prevented last night's disaster from having more serious consequences. From beginning to end, they have indeed been silently helping mankind! Therefore, when people heard that the Ugly Country was planning to contact alien civilizations, many of them were secretly worried. "Should we do something?" "Yes, we can't just sit there and watch the Ugly Country take action!" "How about we send out a probe to test the attitude of alien civilizations?" …… In the conference room. There was some discussion. The leader sitting in the main seat frowned. He also knew that this matter was very tricky and if handled improperly, it could lead to serious consequences. Then, the leader turned his gaze to Yang Yu: "Old Yang, what do you think?" He knew that Yang Yu was a man of great vision and had unique views on alien civilizations. Hearing the leader's question, Yang Yu thought for a moment and said, "I think that although the alien civilization on the moon is willing to help us humans, they may not be willing to contact us... The probe launched by the White Elephant Country before is a good example!" "I've heard about the situation in the Ugly Country. It's terrible! They have to find new hope now, and they can only try desperate measures. But we are different, and there is no need to panic." “So my opinion is, just wait and see for now!” "Of course, we need to make preparations for both scenarios. We can ask the Space City to build a probe. Once the Ugly Country can really gain something on the moon, we will take action immediately!" …… After the meeting. Officials took immediate action. The Warlock Administration began recruiting people on a large scale across the country, and the recruitment was done door-to-door. (End of this chapter)
