Unsure of what Jiang Chen was playing, Reston and Eric exchanged glances before they looked at Jiang Chen and waited for him to continue. Country F's representative, Tate, narrowed his eyes and repeatedly examined the bottle in his hand, hoping to find some clues.
Just as he squeezed the cork and was about to open the bottle to smell, Jiang Chen spoke again.
"I advise you not to do this."
Tate stopped what he was doing and narrowed his eyes at Jiang Chen.
"What is this?"
"The pathogen extract from zombies. We call it the T virus."
As soon as Jiang Chen finished, Tate was so frightened that he immediately threw the bottle in his hand away. The fingernail-sized bottle slammed onto the table and spun around the mouth of the bottle twice. Reston and Eric's expressions all changed as they subconsciously took a step back.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, I need an explanation." Reston looked at Jiang Chen with a stern expression. "Your reckless behavior will be viewed as a provocation to UA, we-"
"We are negotiating today, aren't we?" Jiang Chen interrupted Reston and opened his hands. "And from the beginning of the negotiation until now, I haven't seen any sincerity. It's just you showing off your muscles."
"I understand that muscle is one of the bargaining chips. Since only force can defend peace." Jiang Chen raised his index finger and gently pressed on the phone screen on the negotiation table. "So please allow me to demonstrate our force."
When the red button was pressed, hundreds of kilometers away in the western Pacific Ocean, a circular missile silo opened and revealed the ferocious warhead of the Dolphin-10 ICBM.
The propulsion ring around the side of the missile suddenly ejected a large amount of bubbles and pushed the missile to a depth of 100 meters. Then the propulsion ring split into four sections and separated from the missile. At the same time, the missile's engine ignited. Accompanied by thick smoke, it left the split propulsion ring and the sea far behind as it sped towards the blue sky.
When it reached low Earth orbit, the engine shut down. The Dolphin-10 followed the rotation of the Earth across the Pacific Ocean, across Honduras, and across the Caribbean Sea. The engine ignited again, and the missile began to fall from low Earth orbit.
Like a meteorite falling from the sky, the missile landed vertically on an uninhabited island in the North Atlantic Ocean.
There was a sudden explosion, and the dust and gravel from the explosion instantly soared into the air. The shockwave of the explosion swept across the sea around the island and instantly calmed the turbulent waves.
A drop of cold sweat rolled down Reston's forehead and dripped onto his sleeve.
Tate was completely dumbfounded as he couldn't accept the reality shown on the phone. Eric was silent as he looked at the ceiling.
"You're lying, right?" His voice trembled as he squeezed out this sentence. Tate looked at Jiang Chen, trying to be brave.
Reston and the United Nations observer Eric looked at Jiang Chen together, trying to find a flaw on his face, but they were disappointed to find only calmness on his face.
"I've long heard that the United States has satellites all over the world. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself." Jiang Chen leaned back in his chair and said in a relaxed tone. At the same time, he gestured to the phone, "The coordinates of the missile target are on it."
"Our satellites won't be observing the North Atlantic for no reason." Reston stared into Jiang Chen's eyes.
"Then why don't we send people to observe? They should at least do an explosion assessment. "Jiang Chen rolled his eyes.
Reston didn't say anything. He was waiting for the call from the aircraft carrier.
If the missile crossed the entire Pacific Ocean and Central America, there was no way it wouldn't be captured by UA's radar. Based on the trajectory of the missile, the missile should have been delivered through the low-Earth orbit. If the missile climbed to the low-Earth orbit, it would have been captured by the Guam military base's radar when it reached the exosphere.
Jiang Chen knew what he was waiting for, so he didn't say anything. Instead, he took back the phone on the table and started playing games in front of everyone.
Anger flashed across Tate's face. He felt that he and his country were completely ignored. Although it was true that Reston was helping him, from the beginning to the end, neither UA nor Xin took him seriously. They didn't even ask for his opinion. The feeling of being ignored was like a poison stabbing into his heart.
Santos, on the other hand, was very calm. The bandit born revolutionary leader didn't care if he was taken seriously on the negotiation table or not. He only cared about one thing – the MNLF's decades long dream of independence was finally going to be realized in his hands!
Half an hour passed. Reston couldn't hold it in anymore. He looked at his watch, took a deep breath, and stood up.
"I need to make a call."
"No problem. You should have called a long time ago," Jiang Chen said nonchalantly while playing with his phone.
Reston glanced at Jiang Chen, took out his satellite phone, and was about to leave.
When the call was made to the aircraft carrier, Captain Hoffman immediately asked about the results of the negotiation. If the negotiation didn't go smoothly, they could cooperate with the progress of the negotiation and move a few kilometers closer to Xin's territorial waters.
But Reston had a bitter smile on his face.
From Captain Hoffman's words, he immediately understood that other than him, no UA discovered the intercontinental missile that passed through their backyard. After reporting the situation to Captain Hoffman, Reston hung up the phone, leaned against the wall in front of the conference room, and lit a cigar for himself.
His mind was a mess. His plan was disrupted by a madman who didn't play by the rules. At this moment, he just wanted to calm down and reorganize his thoughts while he smoked.
After half an hour of waiting, this time it wasn't the aircraft carrier that called, but the Capitol in the far away Capital.
A few minutes ago, an F22 with a reconnaissance pod took off from the UA military base and arrived at the target airspace of the island in the North Atlantic Ocean. From the image provided by the F22, the island was hit by a missile not long ago …
Although no one wanted to accept this reality, the truth was in front of everyone.
Xin … no, Celestial Trade, already possessed the ability to strike globally.
Reston put the phone back into his pocket without a word and returned to the conference room.
"So slow." Jiang Chen put away his phone, crossed his fingers on the table, and smiled at Reston, who was sitting back in his seat.
"You want to threaten us with just an intercontinental missile? How many intercontinental missiles do you think the UA has? "Reston said with a gloomy expression.
"What if we add this? It's not hard to get it off the zombie. " Jiang Chen picked up the bottle that Tate threw on the table and placed it on the table. "Do you want to try the interception ability of Patriot 3? For your little friend tens of thousands of kilometers away. "
Reston's pupils suddenly contracted, and Tate's expression also froze on his face.
"Using biochemical weapons is a serious violation of international law. Are you sure you want to do this?" Reston's throat moved with difficulty as he put his hands on the table.
He only felt that the person standing in front of him was a madman.
"Stop joking. Can you guarantee that the UA won't use nuclear weapons in a life and death situation? We're just doing what you would do. You send out your troops, and I'll load them with warheads. Either we live together in peace, or we die together! "Jiang Chen coldly responded to Reston's stare as he said the last few words word by word.
Within the range of the missile, no one could escape.
