The other women present did not think so much. After hearing Lin Ruoxi's words, they could not help but feel a chill down their spines.
Mother Wang and the others turned pale. "This … this is too much. They think they can survive by doing this? If it weren't for the masters of Hua Xia, would they still be alive today? "
"Maybe they really think that the gods are closer to them …" Liu Mingyu said with a bitter smile, "Haven't the gods always been overseas, and many foreigners are their descendants born in reincarnation? They won't treat Hua Xia's Hongmeng as a friend, but at least they won't treat the gods directly as enemies …
The Anglo-American Coalition Army was sunk in the North Pole, and it's very likely that one of the main gods did it, but they didn't say anything. Obviously, they don't want to offend the gods. "
"What a bunch of idiots. If we treated them as one of our own, would the global temperature drop like this? They deserve to freeze to death! "Choi Yeon was furious.
At this moment, a luxurious private helicopter flew over from afar and slowly landed on the open space outside the house.
Those who could come here were generally people who were close to Yang Cheng, so they could enter the island without being intercepted by the ghost fleet.
The women were still wondering who had come, but they saw Jane stand up with a displeased expression. "Hmph, a lobbyist is here."
After a while, the door opened, and a handsome blond man wearing a black navy trench coat came in. It was the heir of the Rothschild family, Edward.
Ron and Brewster obviously recognized Edward's plane, so they did not say much and let him in.
Several of the women present had not seen him before. When they heard Lin Ruoxi introduce him as a member of the Rothschild family, they could not help but look unhappy.
"Edward, if you're here to help them as a lobbyist, then please leave. You should know that you can't take me away," Jane said directly with a cold expression.
Edward did not seem to expect so many people in the house. When he heard Jane's words, he could not help but smile bitterly. He did not rush to respond, but walked in front of Lin Ruoxi in a gentlemanly manner and bowed.
Then, Edward greeted the other women with a smile.
No matter what the situation was, as the successor of the world's number one noble family, he didn't want to lose his manners, even if it was the end of the world.
After that, Edward turned to Jane and said with a smile, "My dear cousin, do you think I'm a man who likes to do useless things, or a man who knows nothing about your temper?"
Jane narrowed her eyes, and a trace of astonishment flashed across her sapphire blue eyes.
She is not an ordinary woman. Although Edward is very intelligent, compared with Jane, he is still far behind.
Jane didn't even ask what Edward's words meant, but she already thought of something that made her very uneasy.
"How could they do that!?" Jane yelled angrily.
Edward knew that Jane had thought of everything he wanted to say. He could not help but smile even more helplessly. "You should have thought of it earlier, shouldn't you? This is not a daydream, nor is it some random imagination. This is the end of the world. This is the sign of the extinction of mankind. So what if they do anything to survive? What can't they do?"
"Them? Aren't you one of them!? "Jane said disdainfully.
"Cousin, believe it or not, I'm neutral in the family. I didn't participate in the vote," Edward spread his hands.
The women around were confused. Choi Yeon couldn't help but ask, "Jane, what are you talking about? What vote? Without a beginning or an end … "
Jane took a deep breath and said, "Because of the existence of the Ghost Fleet, even if NATO and Russia can join forces to attack the island, they will suffer heavy losses. What's more, there are many people with cultivation among us. Even without Gate Master Yu and the others, it is impossible for countries to force me to help them build Noah's Ark.
Therefore, Edward came as an emissary, and it's impossible for him to just be a lobbyist. Those people must have already thought of a bargaining chip that will definitely make me take action. "
"What bargaining chip? You don't lack anything … Wait! Did they kidnap Queen Catherine? "Choi Yeon exclaimed.
Jane shook her head. "If that's the case, I won't be too worried. They won't dare to do that. Even if they do, I can save my mother."
"Then what else can they do to threaten you? We have so many people here. Even if they use nuclear weapons, we can escape. What's there to be afraid of? "Choi Yeon was puzzled.
"It's humans …"
Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi, who was sitting there, said faintly.
"That's right," Jane agreed with Lin Ruoxi's answer. "If they want me to take action, they don't need to think about me and the people around me.
Now that NATO and Russia are in a strategic alliance, it means that they work together to control at least 90% of the world's modern armed forces.
With this power, although they can't fight against the gods and Hua Xia cultivators, they can easily slaughter some backward countries and ordinary humans.
For example, those small countries in Africa and Latin America can't resist at all. As long as NATO's nuclear bombs are detonated in those regions and countries, millions or even tens of millions of people will die in a day … "
After hearing Jane's explanation, almost everyone was shocked.
"Are they crazy!? In order for them to take refuge, they don't treat the people in those places as human beings!? "Mo Qianni frowned.
"No, they're not crazy," Edward sighed softly. "If the current situation continues, those backward and poor humans will sooner or later freeze to death and starve to death, and no one can do anything about it. Everyone can't protect themselves.
If we use these billions of people who are about to die as bargaining chips in exchange for my cousin to help them build Noah's Ark, why not? This is the last value we can make use of them. "
"Despicable!" Cai Ning gritted her teeth and said, "In this case, if Jane doesn't agree, it's equivalent to indirectly becoming the murderer of hundreds of millions or even billions of people … What a good plan."
"In the face of doomsday, there is no so-called ethics, nor is there a vain peaceful coexistence. The strong survive, and the weak are prey to the strong. If you want to blame … Blame them for being at the lower level of the pyramid …" Edward said coldly.
For a moment, the room was silent, and breathing seemed extremely heavy.
"Cousin, go. If Yang Cheng was here, perhaps with his madness, he would choose to kill and suppress those in power first, but Yang Cheng has been out of contact for more than two months, and no one knows when he will appear …
You're not him, and no one here can be as indifferent to life as he is. No matter what happens in the future, you can't just watch as hundreds of millions of people die in vain. "Edward turned his head and looked at Jane with a pleading expression.
Jane, who was wearing a white coat, could be seen clenching her fists tightly due to her unstable emotions, causing the coat to tremble.
Biting her red lips, a flash of determination flashed in Jane's eyes, "Okay, I can promise to help them build Noah's Ark, but I have a request. During this period, they are not allowed to kill the local residents in order to seize the warmer areas of the earth. If I find out … At worst, I'll kill those who want to take the ship first …"
Almost some of the hottest areas on the earth were inhabited by some poor people. Based on the current situation, it was very likely that the rich would expel the poor locals in order to survive, or even slaughter them.
Edward smiled, "Don't worry, dear cousin, as long as you agree, everything is negotiable."
In the end, Jane was forced to agree, and after leaving with Edward, they went to the US military base in the Pacific.
At the same time, in the conference room of Zhongnanhai in Hua Xia's Beijing.
Chief No.1 sat in his seat, with Ning Guangyao, Yang Gongming, Li Moshen, and Cai Yuncheng sitting on both sides.
Ning Guangyao looked good, knowing that the Ning family had been annexed, and from now on, he could no longer be restricted by the Ning family, so he was naturally happy.
Cai Yuncheng, on the other hand, was worried that Hongmeng would also fall.
The temperature in Beijing was so low that ordinary people did not dare to go out at all. Fortunately, there was no snowstorm, otherwise, as a leader, he might have to move to the south to work.
The atmosphere at the conference table was very solemn. Chief No.1 had always been expressionless, but this time, his face was unusually gloomy.
After a long silence, Chief No.1 let out a long sigh and said in a low voice, "We can't sit still and wait for death. From now on, we can only rely on ourselves."
