Haierfa.
"This … what the hell is going on? Can it be explained by science?"
Chen Jin asked with a solemn face, holding a terminal communicator in his hand.
"Dad, I asked Dr. Feng about this. He said that it is very likely that after the celestial particles from the Heavenly Realm escaped to Earth, they were affected by the 'field energy' of a variety of special elementary particles. Ordinary chemical reactions and nuclear fission were basically unaffected. Only the fusion reactions with very high energy levels seemed to have become a little 'sluggish' and not as intense as before."
"The power of our high-end weapons has obviously been limited," Chen Xing Yue said.
There was a slight tremor in her voice. She was no longer as calm as before.
"Balance?"
Chen Jin murmured, "Or, this is a fine-tuning of the origin of the universe."
But the problem was that after such an adjustment, the trump card in the hands of the humans was suddenly weakened.
If the degree of the "Revival of Magical Powers" was deeper, the nuclear weapons would be weakened even more thoroughly.
"Dad, what should we do? Now … what should we do?"
Chen Xing Yue said, somewhat at a loss. Although the Chen family had not done anything to confront the Protoss openly, everyone knew in their hearts that the Chen family was the most unyielding and unkind force toward the Protoss.
Some of the high-level Protoss also regarded the Chen family as a very impolite and abominable "opponent."
In the future, once the conflict between the humans and the Protoss intensified and a conflict broke out, the Chen family would definitely bear the brunt and be the main target of attack.
If they were at a disadvantage or faced defeat, the Chen family would absolutely not end well.
"Don't panic. Let me ask you, how many people know about the failure of nuclear weapons?" Chen Jin asked.
Chen Xing Yue thought for a moment and said, "Not many. Except for the nuclear weapons maintenance personnel, some federal parliamentarians, and some heads of large families, there shouldn't be too many people who know about this. It hasn't spread yet."
"Then block this news. Block it tightly! We must not let the Protoss know about this. "
"I know. The Federation also knows that this matter is of great importance, so they have strictly blocked the news from the beginning. Fortunately, the Protoss do not know much about science and technology, and there are not many who know the local language … For the time being, this news should not be leaked."
"But … paper cannot wrap fire. Some things cannot be hidden. I fear that as time passes, this matter will be known by the god race sooner or later. At that time …"
Thinking of this, Chen Xing Yue could not help but say, "Dad, I think our previous response may be a little inappropriate. If our Chen family's attitude continues to be tough and we don't make appropriate concessions, we are likely to face huge losses in the future … Maybe we should make some changes."
"Oh ~"
Chen Jin understood the meaning behind her words. She was compromising and weak. She could no longer be as tough as before.
Because he was "fearless" before.
Now that his trump card had been weakened, he couldn't show off anymore.
"Alright, it's fine to change a little, but don't change it too abruptly and obviously. When it comes to principles, you should still adhere to them. If you give in without a bottom line, the other party might discover some clues … You should know that the intelligence of those Protoss is generally not low."
Chen Jin suggested.
"I know, Dad. I'll take care of myself."
After that, the two ended the call.
Chen Jin remained silent for a while.
He didn't expect that the originally stable situation would take such a turn.
"Nuwa, Alice, what do you think we should do now? If there are no powerful enough nuclear weapons, how can humans deal with those Protoss? "
Chen Jin also felt a headache coming on. The individual strength of the Protoss was too strong, and now the human race had almost lost a trump card. After the balance was broken, did the human race still have the means and ability to resist the Protoss?
"Master, if the end of the traditional technological route is weakened, then we can only find another way and develop some weapons based on celestial particles. For example, a basic celestial particle, after being stimulated by mental power, can exceed the speed of light by a hundred times. As long as we can make it bigger and more powerful, we can develop a 'celestial cannon.' The effect of killing Protoss masters is similar to that of nuclear weapons."
"In addition to the 'celestial technology route,' there is another route, and that is the 'universal practice route.' We can develop more martial arts, train more human practitioners, and find ways to improve their cultivation. It's best … to achieve the same level as the Protoss of the Shenguang Order and the Sage Order. In this way, we humans will also be gods! Gods who are more powerful than the Protoss! "
"As long as the practitioners we train are powerful enough, with more talents and stronger masters than the Protoss, the mere Protoss will no longer be so scary."
Nuwa's meaning was very simple. That was to open up two new routes:
First, to turn to the development of celestial technology based on celestial particles.
Second, to take the path of practice and train more human masters. It would be best if they were on par with the Protoss.
However …
It would take at least several years or even more than a decade for the celestial technology route to achieve major results that could replace nuclear weapons.
Human masters were even more difficult to train. It would take at least hundreds or even thousands of years for them to achieve breakthroughs in their cultivation and reach a level close to the peak.
In short, there was a time gap in the middle, a rather fatal time gap.
If the Protoss discovered any clues during this period and learned of the hidden secrets, they would not hesitate to immediately overthrow the existing order.
The humans on Earth would immediately fall into a huge crisis.
Not only would they be wiped out, but they might also become slaves … The equal relationship between the two sides would become the relationship between master and slave.
Danger.
The potential situation of humans could be said to be extremely dangerous.
"Nuwa, according to the so-called Murphy's Law, once the worst happens and the secret is leaked, how should we deal with it?"
Chen Jin was making the worst assumption.
"Well, I'm afraid there are no good countermeasures. Even if we build an A-class warship, the space gate is too small. In the end, humans can only rely on themselves."
"Hey, I don't know if this will work."
He said, "The power of nuclear weapons on Earth has been weakened, but the power of nuclear weapons on planet Haierfa remains the same. If we add a good insulating shell to the nuclear weapons we produce here to prevent the influence of the celestial particles and bring them to Earth, doesn't that mean that the 'trump card' of nuclear weapons will return to the hands of humans?" Chen Jin suddenly had a bold idea in his mind. He said, "The power of nuclear weapons on Earth has been weakened.
No, to be precise, it had returned to the hands of the Chen family.
With the space gate's diameter of about one meter, a miniaturized nuclear warhead could be transported to Earth.
"Master's idea is good. There are indeed some materials that can shield the 'pollution' of the celestial particles and preserve full-power nuclear weapons."
This also meant that after the trump card in the hands of humans on Earth was gradually lost, Chen Jin still had one last "insurance."
This was the advantage of holding two universes in his hands.
On Chen Jin's side, the path of purely material technology could reach its end.
…
Time passed very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, another three years had passed.
On Earth, the immigration work of the Protoss was still going on. It had even sped up significantly. The number of Protoss migrating reached two batches of 20 million people every month.
The number of Protoss living on Earth had broken through to 1.2 billion.
This was a population that could constitute a superpower.
With the Protoss' character, culture, and the like, it was absolutely impossible to restrain them. Moreover, as the number of Protoss increased, they gradually mixed with the human race and came into contact with each other more frequently. Therefore, the number of crimes was increasing year by year.
It could be said that there were more and more crimes initiated by the Protoss.
However, if one looked at the crime rate parameters, the overall crime rate of the Protoss had dropped significantly in the past two years. It had dropped from a few percent in a thousand to a few percent in ten thousand. The results were very significant.
Why was this happening?
Why had the crime rate dropped so significantly?
The main reason was that the federal government had "chickened out." They had made a shameful concession in defending the dignity of the law. They preserved the right to judge and arrest the Protoss who had violated the law, but gave up the right to punish them.
After the police caught the Protoss criminals, they could try and convict them. However, the final punishment would still be handed over to the higher-ups of the Protoss. The specific punishment would be discussed and implemented internally by the Protoss.
For the Protoss, the public security police of the federal government could arrest and convict them, but they could not punish them personally. They could only return the criminals to the Protoss.
In addition, the death penalty had been abolished. If a Protoss killed someone and committed an extremely serious crime, the most severe punishment could only be exile to the prison star.
Moreover, if a criminal case occurred within the Protoss, the federal police could not intervene. It would be handled by the Protoss themselves.
In a sense, the Protoss had the privilege of being outside the law.
Of course, the above measures did not actually have the effect of curbing crime. On the contrary, it would make the criminals worse and more unscrupulous.
The real trick of the federal government to reduce the crime rate was to recruit a group of Protoss practitioners with high cultivation and good personalities from among the Protoss. After a short period of training, they would join the ranks of the federal police. They would participate in the fight against crime as "Protoss detectives."
This plan could be said to be brilliant. With the help of a large number of "Protoss detectives," not only the criminal acts committed by the Protoss, but also the criminal acts of ordinary humans, when faced with powerful practitioners, could only be quickly dealt with. There was no way to escape. The deterrent effect was remarkable.
In addition to verbal praise and material awards, the federal government even specially filmed a TV series about the story of the cooperation between the "Protoss detectives" and the "human police." Not only did it have good ratings, but its reputation was also quite good.
In this way, the "Protoss detectives" with outstanding abilities and hundreds of thousands of people became the beginning of the integration of the Protoss and the human race.
The major concessions made by the federal government in terms of the law had made a great contribution to improving the relationship between the two races and easing the contradictions between them.
According to the latest polls, the favorability of the Protoss toward the human race was as high as 75%; the favorability of the human race toward the Protoss was as high as 65%.
On the other side.
The Protoss higher-ups were a little puzzled by the performance of the Chen family, the backbone of the human hardliners, in the past three years.
It was not an exaggeration to describe it as "an inexplicable display of goodwill."
Especially in business dealings, the generosity of the Chen family sometimes reached the extent of violating business principles.
For example, ores and minerals from the Heavenly Realm could be sold to other companies or consortiums at a price of 100. However, the Chen family often bought them at a price of 120 or 150 and signed a very scary order.
In addition, considering the Protoss' lack of funds, the Chen family was the first to issue a loan of up to 10 trillion credits to the Protoss at a zero interest rate.
Of course, a simple loan could not alleviate the predicament. It was better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Therefore, in order to improve the Protoss' self-sufficiency ability, the Chen family supported the Protoss with 1,000 indoor agricultural bases and more than 1,000 capsule factories within three years. They also trained the workers step by step and taught them skills and techniques.
In addition, many companies of the Chen family consortium were open to the Protoss. They recruited more than one million Protoss employees in the industrial, agricultural, mining, gaming, cultural, entertainment, and security industries. This was a first in history. It undoubtedly required a lot of courage and boldness to let the powerful Protoss work together with the weak and powerless human beings. Not many companies were willing to stuff a few walking bombs into their offices.
Moreover, under the packaging and operation of Xing Hai Entertainment, many Protoss actors with good acting skills shot many wonderful works. They quickly became popular and had countless fans. In the entertainment industry, the Protoss took the lead in achieving good results.
The various initiatives of the Chen family not only brought great benefits to the Protoss, but also brought the integration of the Protoss and human beings a step further.
If they maintained this momentum and continued to develop, humans and the Protoss would definitely be able to coexist in harmony and gradually integrate into one.
In the future, the two races could put down their guard against each other and live together under the same sky.
However!
Paper could not wrap fire.
Secrets would always be exposed one day.
Chu Mingyang, 43 years old, was a politician with outstanding ability and a bright future. However, because he used public funds to buy a few gifts with a total value of no more than 1,000 dollars, he was exposed by the media. After being condemned and cursed by netizens, he had to apologize in public, admit his mistake, and resign.
His originally bright future was ruined because of a few small gifts.
He wanted to find a new job. Because of his notorious reputation, the interviewers of many companies mocked and ridiculed him.
Just because of a small mistake, he was thrown into the endless abyss with no hope of making a comeback.
Anger!
Endless resentment and anger!
Thinking that he had no future to speak of, he gritted his teeth and went straight to Shen Du (the capital of the Protoss). He found the top leaders of the Protoss and directly revealed a secret that he had accidentally learned.
…
Above the quaint temple.
Bam ~!
The leader of the Protoss, Bakedu, was a two-meter-tall brawny man with copper skin. He slammed his fist on the short table in front of him. His face was full of excitement. "Something like this actually happened, something like this actually happened!
So this is the reason why those humans have been so sensible and polite in the past few years.
Heaven is on our side, Heaven is on our side!
Those ants have lost that divine artifact. How can they be a match for us if they play tricks? It's a piece of cake to destroy them! Time is of the essence. Organize a force immediately, take down this planet, and take back everything that originally belonged to us! "
Bakedu stood up, his face full of eagerness!
The dignity of the Protoss and the face of the Protoss could no longer tolerate being on an equal footing with ants.
