"Maybe." Stretch's tone also became firm. "But I just want to make the most of my knowledge."
In the end, the conversation ended on a sour note.
Stretch's student, Hopes, walked over from the side.
"Professor, everything has been arranged. The East has agreed to our request. They will soon arrange for us to leave here." Hopes looked relieved.
Too many things had happened on this day.
First, volcanoes erupted all over the world. Then, a god-like existence descended to the world. Then, there was a new disaster warning.
This was definitely a day that would be recorded in the annals of human history.
Even until now.
Hopes felt as though he was in a dream.
"Hopes." Stretch looked at him and seemed to hesitate for a moment, but still said, "You know, you don't have to go with me. I'm almost seventy years old, but you're still very young and very outstanding … Some places should be preparing to build Noah's Ark to protect a few people. If you go, there may be a place for you on it."
Although he had already made his decision, he could not interfere with Hopes on such a big matter.
"Professor." Hopes laughed. "If you're talking about Noah's Ark, hasn't it already appeared? It's parked in the sky in the East. "
"You mean …"
Stretch's mind was also filled with the image of the huge Sky Fortress.
The first time it appeared, it saved 130,000 people.
Indeed, in the entire world today, what could be more worthy of the name "Noah's Ark"?
"Professor, my wife and daughter are very happy to hear that we can go to the East." Hopes' voice was filled with some kind of expectation. "I made this decision not entirely for you. No matter what the reason is, the Pan-Humanist Guardians helped them."
For a young scholar like him.
The temptation of the Pan-Humanist Guardians was very strong.
It seemed to represent the other side of knowledge.
"…" Stretch was silent for a moment. In the end, he nodded and smiled. "Okay, let's go together."
At this moment, there were many scientists in the world who, like them, wanted to go to the East.
Part of it was because they were moved by the action, organization, and spirit of unity that the East had shown before.
Part of it was because of the Pan-Humanist Guardians who had shown transcendental power.
There were also people who had both reasons.
For example, Ralph, the Information Engineer who survived the initial warning.
Chu Lin and the others conducted a strict screening of these people.
Especially character and ability.
With the appearance of the hurricane, the sea would no longer be safe. Flights would gradually stop, and transportation between countries would be cut off. Moreover, they knew very well that this cut off would last until the end of the world.
…
This day was destined to be long for many people.
The people of the world were either immersed in great fear, or began to try to save themselves, or turned their attention to the mustering of the East.
But time would still pass.
Shen Yi didn't do anything.
This was because the purpose of this war was to gather the wisdom of mankind.
There were some things that he couldn't replace, not even Clove.
Fortunately, Chu Lin and the others did their best to seize the opportunity. They announced that on that night, all arriving scholars, as well as scholars from around the world who were willing to participate, would officially start the first conference in offline and online mode!
It could be considered a preliminary exchange.
They wouldn't reveal too much either.
Yuan Shilin knew that now wasn't the time to disclose the real doomsday information. After this, they would hand over part of the information to the last qualified scholars in a confidential way.
At that time, there would only be one topic of discussion — how to make this country, this civilization, fight against the apocalypse!
With the arrival of the last scholar, the conference began as scheduled.
In addition to the hundreds of scholars who arrived at the scene, there were also dozens of scholars on the big screen.
Some of them were invited, and some applied on their own.
Yuan Shilin mostly welcomed them.
According to the procedure, the reporters would broadcast the opening remarks live, then appear in an orderly manner, leaving the conference completely to the scholars.
As soon as the conference began, the bullet screen became densely packed.
"It's finally starting!"
"I saw Stretch! He's already here! "
"F * ck, isn't that Raffl?"
“6666”
"It's the first time I've seen so many big shots, the underachievers are already kneeling."
"Let's kneel and watch!"
“.....”
People's enthusiasm could be seen in the bullet screen. Everything that happened today was unforgettable. When they closed their eyes, the spectacular scene of the volcanic eruption and the figure with the thunder and lightning seemed to appear in front of their eyes!
People couldn't wait to know what happened to their world! Did these top scholars have a solution?!
The opening remarks were hosted by Hong Feizhang.
His appearance also caused the number of bullet screen comments to explode, with the word "hero" appearing the most.
He commanded everyone to create a miracle, and his act of leaving himself to the end gave him a reputation.
And Hong Feizhang's opening remarks were simple and powerful.
His sonorous voice resounded throughout the hall.
"There is only one purpose for gathering everyone! Gather your wisdom and lead us all to resist the disaster! In this war, you are our weapons … "
Stretch had already put on his headphones and listened to the simultaneous translation live.
He actually just got off the plane not long ago.
The long flight made him a little tired, but he was very excited mentally.
It was too efficient!
There was almost no delay along the way.
All the trivial matters were arranged so that he could immediately immerse himself in the seminar!
He could feel Dongfang's attitude!
If he was a little nervous before coming here, then now, he was sure that his knowledge would be able to play its role here.
But Stretch was a little uneasy.
He also saw Kipling on the screen.
In terms of academic status, Kipling was indeed qualified to participate in this seminar. But, after yesterday's conversation, Stretch was very clear that his friend was not optimistic about Dongfang's performance in dealing with the disaster.
As expected.
Stretch's uneasiness became a reality.
Just as the opening remarks were over and the reporters were about to get organized, Kipling on the big screen suddenly raised his hand.
"Sorry, but I hope to say a few words."
This sudden change made some of the reporters stop.
And Kipling did not seem to be prepared to give Hong Feizhang and the others a chance to stop him. He quickly said, "I want to ask first, is the Pan-Humanist Guardians participating in this seminar? If not, then I think there is really no need to hold this seminar, because with human wisdom alone, it is impossible to defeat this huge disaster! Especially in Dongfang! "
