They landed on the battlefield from a height of hundreds of kilometers and ended the battle in less than half an hour.
The combat power displayed by the Orbital Airborne Brigade completely shocked the British Royal Secret Service Airborne Force that arrived later. It also completely shocked the British defense department, as well as the audience sitting in front of their televisions who learned the first-hand news through BBC Live News.
This was the first battle of the Orbital Airborne Brigade.
Although there had been various controversies about the true combat power of this force, including whether the soldiers could still maintain normal combat power after jumping from such a high place, whether their weapons could still fire normally …
At this moment, everyone's arguments vanished into thin air.
They were strong.
Not only that, but they were terrifyingly strong …
While the people of the world were still digesting this huge amount of information, the emotions of the passengers on the cruise ship "Aurora Borealis" had gradually returned to normal.
Standing in the corridor, Prince Felipe picked up Princess Lillian, who was rushing toward him. His voice was trembling with excitement.
"Oh God, my Lillian! Where the hell did you go? "
Lillian was lying on her father's shoulder. She looked back at Lu Zhou and whispered in his ear.
"Mr. Scholar showed me a magic trick!"
Prince Felipe paused for a second.
"Magic?"
"Yeah! It was such a big pirate ship. "Lillian gestured with her hands and said excitedly," A cloud of smoke fell from the sky, and then the pirate ship disappeared. "
"The pirate ship … the cargo ship that's following us? Then, then … we really have to thank him. " Prince Felipe's mouth was wide open. Obviously, he didn't know what his daughter was talking about.
But no matter what, it was great that she could come back to him safely.
In addition to Prince Felipe, the most excited person was Sophia Wong.
She rushed out of the room and snatched Princess Lillian from her husband's hands. She hugged her and kissed her several times before letting go of the little girl who was about to suffocate.
After putting down Princess Lillian, she quickly walked in front of Lu Zhou and grabbed his hand. Her face was full of gratitude.
"Dear Academician Lu Zhou, I really don't know how to feel about you! Really! Thank you so much! "
"Actually, you don't have to thank me." Lu Zhou was a little afraid that the madam would hug him and bite him, so he subtly took half a step back and said politely, "For the sake of the friendship between the two countries, this is nothing."
Prince Philip stepped forward and said seriously.
"No, we have to thank you. Of course … we are also grateful to those who saved us from the pirates. When I disembark, I will express my gratitude to you and your motherland in a more formal setting. "
"Uh, you really don't have to do this …"
Looking at the serious expressions on Prince Felipe and Princess Sophia's faces, Lu Zhou knew that whatever he said would probably be useless, so he did not say anything more.
Due to the sudden encounter with pirates, the total flight time was shortened by a full day.
It wasn't only because of the change of course midway, but also because the subsequent voyage to Malmo had been canceled.
Not only that, but the banquet was also canceled.
Although this news was regrettable, no one objected. After experiencing so many things, the passengers on the ship were already physically and mentally exhausted. The only thing they wanted to do now was to rest, and everything else could wait until they went ashore tomorrow.
Everyone ate quietly in the cafeteria, then returned to their respective rooms. The captain of the Royal Guards was still reprimanding the derelict soldiers about the stolen equipment. As for Wang Peng, he was also busy dealing with the nameless bodies at the bottom of the ship.
There was only one day left of the voyage.
Lu Zhou didn't stay on the deck for long. Instead, he returned to his room and quietly looked at the scanned electronic version of the notebook that Wang Peng collected from that person.
Lu Zhou scanned the text on the tablet line by line, and his brows gradually furrowed.
"No wonder Wang Peng said he saw it somewhere …"
The content of the notebook was nothing else.
It was the posthumous work of the late ILHCRC researcher, Professor Galette Miro, on the theory of "the universe has a spirit".
Of course, this was already a rewritten version.
In a sense, this version of the paper could no longer be called a paper. It was more like something similar to a religious program. It was hard to imagine that these mobs, who were once easily dispersed in front of the ILHCRC, actually had such a huge amount of action. They even had the determination to die.
In comparison, the radical environmentalists protesting on the streets of London were nothing.
"In other words, a group of fanatical believers of the spirit of the universe planned this attack?"
"But this is too … inconceivable."
"Or is it just someone trying to use this kind of smoke bomb to divert attention?"
There were two possibilities in this.
But if the latter possibility really existed …
Would someone think of framing this attack on a new religious organization that had just surfaced and had no future at all?
Assuming that the CIB planned this operation.
Lu Zhou turned off the electronic text. He threw the tablet on the bedside table and rubbed his eyebrows.
"I hope it's just my imagination …"
He had a feeling that something incredible had been released from that experiment.
However, it doesn't seem to make much sense to worry about these things now.
Since Wang Peng had already reported the situation to the higher-ups, then presumably the General Staff Department and the State Security had already launched an investigation into this matter. As for what happens next …
I'll just quietly wait for the results of the investigation.
He believed that the intelligence department of China should be able to find something valuable by following the clues. If he still remembered this matter, he would ask someone he was familiar with about it.
Lu Zhou closed his eyes and decided to go to bed early tonight.
However, for some unknown reason, not long after he closed his eyes, that mysterious voice faintly appeared in his mind like a ghost's dream.
"When you stare into the void, the void stares back at you …"
…
The next morning was a bright and sunny day.
Standing on the deck and looking into the distance, the outline of the Copenhagen Harbor could already be seen.
After sitting at the table and eating the buffet breakfast, Lu Zhou folded the tablecloth on his lap and threw it back on the table. At this moment, the first mate, who was standing on the railing, used a loud and enthusiastic voice to speak to the guests eating on the deck.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to dock at the Copenhagen Harbor. On the way, we encountered some … twists and turns, but fortunately, it was all daunting.
"I hope it won't affect your mood. On behalf of the crew of the Aurora Borealis, I would like to extend my most sincere greetings and thanks to you for this journey … "
There were only scattered applause on the deck, and most of it was contributed by the crew themselves.
It was obvious that this explanation did not satisfy many passengers.
But in any case, this exciting journey was finally over.
After breakfast, the guests returned to their rooms to pack their luggage. Under the escort of the crew, they landed on the port through the gangway.
In the waiting area, the car of the China Embassy in Copenhagen was already waiting there.
A bodyguard in a black suit stepped forward and opened the door for Lu Zhou. Just as he was about to get in the car, a group of sharp-eyed reporters spotted him and immediately swarmed around him.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from The Sun. We heard that you saw Viking pirates at sea? Is that true? "
"It's hard to say whether it's Viking pirates or not, but it should be pirates … It's better to interview the consulate or the patrol fleet in this area. I don't know more about the situation."
"Excuse me, are they coming for you? Who do you think they might be employed by? "
"I don't know."
Lu Zhou had just finished dealing with a reporter, but before he could catch his breath, another microphone was shoved in front of him.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from The New York Times. I heard that you will speak on behalf of China at the Global Climate Action Summit. Is that true?"
"It's true."
The reporter asked with a sneaky look.
"But I heard that you came on a cruise ship."
When Lu Zhou heard this, he suddenly smiled and asked, "Is it more environmentally friendly to fly? Or is it more environmentally friendly to swim? "
The reporter's expression froze. He obviously didn't expect Lu Zhou to throw the question back at him.
Who's interviewing whom?
However, after all, he was a veteran. He only stuttered for a while, then continued to speak without showing any weakness.
"But … As a scholar with considerable influence in the world, don't you think you should set an example on environmental protection issues?"
Lu Zhou was annoyed, so he reached out and grabbed the microphone in his hand. He replied in a clear and polite tone.
He then replied in a clear and polite tone, "Because I'm a scholar, I don't need to show off in front of you guys, and I don't need to please you.
"As for setting an example, I think controllable fusion is a good example. By improving energy efficiency, we have reduced carbon emissions and heat emissions by at least 50%.
"More results will be displayed at the Global Climate Action Summit. Whether you can see it or not, this is what I'm doing.
"Also, I noticed that the clothes you're wearing are chemical fiber products, and most of the raw materials come from oil.
"That's all."
After that, he threw the microphone back to the reporter. He then got into a car parked on the side of the road and drove away.
