After the unconscious children woke up, Kiyama Harusei was finally freed from the deep nightmare and put down the biggest burden in her heart. She gradually regained her vitality and vigor.
She removed the dark circles under her eyes and paid attention to her appearance again. She was also a very beautiful woman!
This was the sigh in my heart when I saw the new Kiyama Harusei again.
"Really, thank you very much for your help!"
Even though he was clearly older than me, he still bowed respectfully to me and thanked me sincerely.
"It's nothing," I said honestly. "You can continue to stay in the research institute for the time being. I believe you have seen some things here, right?"
It wasn't because we didn't keep it a secret, but the things that we purposely let her see.
Kiyama showed a slightly unnatural expression, but he still nodded.
"I will explain everything after everything is over." I smiled calmly and left the medical area. The children who had just woken up needed to rest.
The rest day was over. Today was the day when most of the schools in the campus city had classes. So when Tears Zuo suddenly rushed to the research institute, we were all very surprised.
There wasn't any battle training for her today. Of course, it was claimed to be an ability development experiment. In other words, without the certificate issued by our research institute and other procedures, Tears Zuo should be obediently listening to the classes in school. Even if the top-notch Level 3 power that she displayed was enough to make her an excellent student in that ordinary Zhichuan High School, it didn't seem appropriate for her to suddenly skip class …
"I skipped class to come here."
The black-haired girl didn't seem embarrassed when she said that. It was obvious that she was in a hurry when she rushed over. Even after sitting in the living room for a long time, she was still panting. After gulping down the water that I passed to her, Tears finally calmed down.
"Tears, what's the matter?"
Due to her strong personality, or rather, the powerful aura skill, the relationship between her and Tears had always been very close. When she saw that Tears had calmed down, she immediately asked worriedly.
Tears put down the cup and glanced at the group of us from another dimension. Then, she asked worriedly, "That … the matter about the end of the world … Is it true?"
"The end of the world?" We looked at each other and then I said, "Didn't I tell you before? We're here to intercept the Star Ring fragments … "
"Not that, I mean those … exploding stars, colliding planets and asteroids … Are those all real?"
"How do you know all this?"
I asked in shock. Because we didn't want to cause panic, we had always treated the news of the sudden increase in the scale of the apocalypse as an internal secret. Where did Tears get this information from?
The girl in front of him gestured randomly with her hands. "It's … I occasionally tried to log into that information link, and the information I retrieved from it said that the collision of the Star Ring fragments in the original intelligence had a major error, and that a larger threat was about to erupt …"
"Oh … I miscalculated." I slapped my head in realization.
According to the authority, the Storm Commander could also access the most encrypted information link file — even a dabbler like Tear.
"That's how it is." I nodded at the girl in front of me, then quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, we can handle it. It might be a problem of authority, so you won't be able to see our subsequent arrangements, but in reality, I have already arranged everything."
"Then what can I do?"
Lei Zi raised her head and her eyes were filled with fervent expectation — — I almost forgot about the desire to see the world in chaos that was hidden in her bones!
"There doesn't seem to be any arrangements … Err, if you aren't afraid of attracting too much attention after your identity is exposed, you can take on the role of dispatching a portion of the ground troops. After all, as a student of this academy, you should be more familiar with the local situation."
This kind of job was ambiguous, but the girl who wanted to escape from her ordinary life was already satisfied, and she immediately smiled happily.
I had previously guessed that no country's government would act based on a superstitious "prophecy" or "prophecy", not to mention several countries working together to evacuate tens of millions of citizens. The economic losses and even political turmoil caused by such a large-scale operation would be extremely shocking, and without concrete evidence of the impending disaster, it was impossible to take such an action based on a "prophecy" alone.
This was no longer the Middle Ages where religion reigned supreme.
This was the director's office of the research institute, spacious and bright. I leaned back on the comfortable leather chair behind the office desk, quietly listening to Laura's report on the resistance she received from the various European countries — the biggest bishop in the video seemed to be in a rather bad mood.
I wasn't surprised to receive this news from Laura: Although the various European government leaders expressed their attention to her warning, in reality, I'm afraid that less than 10% of them actually planned to evacuate.
"I'm very sorry, Lord Angel, I was unable to complete my mission."
Laura, who had been acting rather calm, now had a face of exhaustion and anger. Obviously, the attitude of those stubborn government leaders towards the "revelation from heaven" made this pious girl exceptionally angry.
No matter how powerful the influence was, politics and religion were, after all, two different worlds.
"Don't blame yourself," I comforted the biggest bishop on the other side of the video with a smile on my lips, "Your mission was only to inform them of this warning. Since they chose to ignore it, then I have no choice but to take some extreme measures — Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I'm not referring to the methods used in Pompeii, it's just an appropriate warning."
After cutting off the communication with Laura, I got Pandora to stop interfering with the space loop around the research facility. Then, with a slightly gloomy expression, I placed my ten fingers together like a schemer and said to the air, "Aresta, I know that you have some tricks up your sleeves. Can you hear me now?"
Just a few seconds after I finished speaking, the laptop screen on the desk in front of me suddenly lit up, and a certain inverted figure appeared in front of me.
"Your recent actions are really unpredictable, Your Excellency." A strange voice that was neither male nor female came from the laptop's thin sound system.
"A person who is used to scheming can't adapt to the straightforwardness of an upright person?" I curled my lips in disdain, then scratched my head and turned the laptop upside down, at the same time, I used a heavy desktop sculpture to fix it, "You finally turned it right — You don't know how awkward it is to see you like this every time."
It was obvious that Aresta on the other side of the screen was taking a deep breath.
"Then, why did you take the initiative to contact me this time, Your Excellency?" With a pretentious tone, Aresta said, "If you have finally decided to return that girl, I will be very happy to continue providing protection for Your Excellency's peace in this place. Of course, this also includes the other girls, Your Excellency seems to be paying a lot of attention to them …"
I frowned, "Don't do unnecessary things."
"But the first to provoke seems to be Your Excellency. As the owner of this place, I need to change the unstable factors into stability, or … eliminate them."
"Eliminate them …" I suddenly felt that it was rather funny, "In other words, if we continue like this, you intend to launch an attack on us?"
"I'm really regretful that things have come to this, but the recent news from certain channels has made me wary of you. This might be the last time I contact you … Outsider, I'm really looking forward to the future developments …"
I didn't expect Aresta to bring up this matter so openly, but it was exactly what I wanted. I moved my face closer to the screen, and with a peaceful smile, I said, "Very well, three days later, I will be ready for battle. Let us use a direct confrontation to end these boring little schemes!"
After one-sidedly ending the communication, I turned my head with a smirk, "Pandora, the Alliance Fleet can set sail."
We had long guessed that Aresta would completely oppose us. This old fox, who was used to using unscrupulous means, had always been testing our patience. Furthermore, there were many things that he had done that I personally disliked. In order to make him obediently submit, there was no other way but to suppress him with power.
I didn't expect Aresta to actually keep his promise. He said that he would show his trump card three days later, but he really didn't do anything sneaky in the past few days, which surprised me quite a bit.
However, I knew that he was definitely paying attention to this side. It was a pity that the real thing that was worth paying attention to was in the sky.
Three days later, when the first huge Schilling Mothership slowly entered the scanning area of the space exploration equipment of various countries, the world was shocked.
Of course, such shock was only at the level of the governments of various countries. They would never disclose anything to the ordinary people, but they would never have thought that the appearance of a mysterious alien spaceship was just the beginning.
Large-scale hyperspace portals began to appear in the near-Earth space that the people of Earth could observe in batches. Huge and strange-looking space battleships gradually emerged from the cold space like lurkers. Without any disguise at all, they openly and quickly surrounded the entire Earth. When the scientists of Earth woke up one night, they found that their space telescopes could no longer see a star. Everywhere they looked, there were huge alien battleships.
A scene that only happened in a sci-fi disaster movie was shown in front of the entire human race at the same time.
Sandora's fleet was finally in position.
The huge space battleship blocked the sunlight. Even from the ground, one could vaguely see the blurry, distorted images. The long dusk had fallen, and the whole world had lost its bright and beautiful day. The sky was filled with a strange orange light curtain. It was the simulated star light that the Xi Ling battleship had sprinkled down to prevent global ecological imbalance. The energy of that thing was more abundant and reasonable than the light of the sun, but it did not look very pleasing.
"We don't know where they came from or what they are going to do. The Earth has been surrounded by these huge battleships …"
"All attempts to contact them have failed. The aliens refuse to answer any of our questions …"
"The United States is trying to launch a probe. There is news that the White House has begun to arrange for the president and the main government leaders to take refuge …"
"A large number of small alien battleships have gathered in the sky above Europe. Some national leaders are worried that they will launch a surprise attack on Europe first …"
"… Some religious people are gathering in Europe, claiming that they have been inspired by God to know the arrival of these 'brothers' …"
"Alright, alright, blockhead. You said that we are here to save the world." Lin Xue turned off the television. "But why do I feel like I am watching 'Independence Day'? Now, one hundred percent of the countries in the world are in a state of panic. The optimistic estimate is that before tomorrow night, there will be people robbing supermarkets and committing murder. It is obvious that their governments have not told their people about Laura's warning. "
"Nonsense. Politicians will never let the people know the truth unless the truth is placed in front of the people. Our appearance will inevitably lead to such a situation …"
Halfway through my sentence, my sister walked over and placed a document in front of me. "Ah Jun, I have drafted the announcement to broadcast to the whole world. Take a look."
I took it and flipped through two pages. "… Sis, we are writing an official document, not a prose poem …"
"Is there any news from Laura?"
After asking my sister to reconsider the issue of the announcement, I turned to ask Shallow Shallow, who was in charge of contacting the British Puritans. She answered while playing checkers with Visca, "The government leaders who received the warning are finally loosening up. But they seem to want to talk to the aliens first. They don't believe in religion."
"I have already prepared this," I said as I took out Jingle from my pocket. "Little one, are you ready to depart?"
Jingle put her hands on her hips proudly. "Jingle has already started! Ah Jun won't be able to understand those profound knowledge! "
… The last-place goddess who was still studying the primary school textbook yesterday has no right to say such words!
"Reporting, Officer. Is Aresta's communication over?"
Vega walked over from the side and asked with a slight bow.
"Ha, the old fox finally couldn't take it anymore. Take it over, take it over!"
As usual, Aresta appeared on the projector in Vega's hands. This time, without needing me to say anything, the little scorpion took the initiative to turn the projector upside down. Yup, it looks much more comfortable.
"Aresta, it's been a few days."
The man in the projection seemed to be thinking about something. After a long silence, he finally spoke, "Outsider … I admit that I …"
I waved my hand to interrupt him. "According to the agreement, I have sent my vanguard to the battlefield to accept your challenge. According to the universal convention, we have to take the initiative to provide information to the opponent in such an unequal battle to show fairness. So listen up, the first battle zone is in Mars' orbit. 122 battleships are ready to depart, and two special landing ships for genocide are fully charged. My main force is waiting for your arrival in Mars' orbit. Oh, I suggest you prepare more space-time shuttles. The Imperial Army usually won't pursue deserters."
Space-Time shuttles? I'm already surprised that you can fly people out of the moon's orbit!
This time, Aresta was silent for a long time. I knew that he had been through many things, but this was probably the first time he had been humiliated and embarrassed like today.
"Foreigner, I don't think it's necessary for you to mobilize such a large army just to deal with a primary civilization that hasn't even left the solar system. What is your objective? If it's something that I can accept, you can tell me."
Aresta asked in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, but his words were actually a sign of submission. I believed that no matter what I suggested, Aresta wouldn't have any hesitation. In the face of the ultimate suppression of power, the old fox's craftiness was useless.
"Of course, we aren't here to conquer humans. Moreover, if we are here to kill you, everyone here is more than ten thousand percent confident. We are here for love and justice … Ahem, anyway, from now on, you have to listen to the orders of the Empire. In other words, the orders of me and everyone here. Don't play any tricks. We can even monitor the replication process of every amino acid in your body. So … you understand."
Aresta was silent for a long time. Finally, he said, "Perhaps, I have made the stupidest mistake in my life …" Then, he cut off the communication.
"I thought he would be stubborn to the end."
I turned my head away in disappointment and said to Lin Xue who came over.
"Unless he's an idiot. Hmm, here's a message from Laura. Under her persuasion, the leaders of several countries are almost convinced of the impending disaster and the arrival of the alien 'brother'. However, they need an official meeting. In other words, you have to go."
"Okay, okay, okay, I know, I know. But before meeting them, we should first stir up public opinion."
The Schilling Mainframes had already taken control of the entire information system of the Gakuen City and used it as a medium to control the entire human network under their tiny brains that could perform trillions of calculations per second. I knew that politicians were the best at playing with the people. Unless there was no other choice, they would rather the people stay away from the truth forever. In order to prevent certain annoying fellows from demonizing the aliens, we began to release our own propaganda.
Regarding the impending apocalypse, our goal to save the earth, and of course, Pandora's crucial recruitment advertisement, while announcing our friendly intentions, it also contained a hidden warning to the various countries. Although it wasn't enough to convince all of humanity, at least the impending chaos was temporarily delayed.
Such a strong public opinion coverage more or less gave the uneasy citizens some psychological comfort. Their previous panic was not so much the fear of the alien invasion, but rather the fear of the unknown. Now, at least the unknown had become known.
The situation in the Gakuen City was much better than the outside. Firstly, the security system here was very strict, and there wasn't much possibility of a riot. Secondly, eighty percent of the people here were students. They were the most accepting group of people in the world. They had already started to organize tour groups to see the aliens. There was no palace here, otherwise, I would have been able to search for the official SOS website in the Gakuen City's library.
But on the other hand, Shirai Kuroko and Hatsuharu Shuri had almost turned the research institute upside down. They were both members of the disciplinary committee, the busiest group of people in the past few days …
