Chapter 400: An Unprecedented Disaster

By the end of October, the world's M-series infectious diseases began to break out on a large scale in various countries, and the earth ushered in the most serious crisis of highly pathogenic and highly contagious germs in history, and the death toll increased exponentially every day. Although Huaguo "Star Pharmaceutical" transferred M-series germ detection technology to countries in the world, it only delayed the outbreak of M-series infectious diseases, but failed to effectively prevent the spread of M-series germs.

The economic and political impact of the crisis began to manifest itself in all countries, with economies almost completely stagnant, most industrial enterprises suspended production, service industries completely shut down, and the military was in a state of total ineffectiveness. Most of the basic materials for the survival of the people are provided and distributed by the state, and the struggle for food is going on all the time, and the economy of the world is in a state of death, and most of the people are hiding at home and waiting for death, or trying to avoid this disaster.

Opposition parties from all countries have spoken out to condemn the incompetence and inaction of the current government, and demand that the current government resign and step down, and hand over the country to someone who can govern. Medical institutions are also on the cusp of public opinion, and medical researchers are under great pressure, but the stubbornness of the M-series germs is a headache for medical scientists, who have tried countless methods, but they cannot conquer this small single-celled lifeform.

The news media in various European countries have also begun to ignore the government's ban and bombard the government and medical science institutions, accusing them of inaction that has led to huge losses in people's lives and property. Rumors began to fly all over the world, and the European people began to learn from the experience of the Japanese people, trying to join various sects to cleanse the body of germs, but the result was of course in vain, and there was no effect of the "cosmic god cult".

The European and American media have strongly criticized the reports reported by the Japanese media that the so-called religious gods can prevent M-series infectious diseases. He accused the Japanese of not only bringing M-series germs to the world, but also mentally paralyzing the people of the world. This nation is a nation with anti-human genes, and all countries in the world should give this country the most severe punishment.

The first to react was the South Korean government. South Korea is one of the countries most affected by the M1 germ, with more than 6 million deaths due to the M1 disease. The percentage of the country's total population ranks behind the Japanese state, reaching more than 12%.

The South Korean government was fiercely condemned and abused by political opponents and the media because of its inability to cope with the increasingly fierce attack of the M series of germs, and they submitted their general resignation to the president after apologizing to the people, and South Korean President Lee Bo-pong urgently formed a new cabinet.

The new government was unable to rectify social order for a while, the government's work came to a standstill, and the prevention and control of the M1 infectious disease was out of control. The number of newly infected people with M1 infectious disease has increased exponentially, and the new South Korean government has had to adopt a comprehensive prohibitive policy, prohibiting people living in cities from taking to the streets, calling on people to stay at home, and all daily necessities are distributed by state personnel.

South Korea's Supreme Court also issued a judgment as quickly as possible, ruling that the resignation of a former cabinet member in a time of national crisis was illegal and a serious dereliction of duty, which should be severely punished. Subsequently, the former cabinet members were arrested en masse and imprisoned.

This painful lesson has taught the governments and media of the world a lesson. The loud voices against the government have only diminished, and the members of the government, although exhausted and working every day with the possibility of being infected by the M germ, do not dare to pick on them.

At this time, the government of the Japanese country and Noda was already crying without tears. In the past month or so, more than 30 million people have died due to M1 infectious diseases, accounting for more than one-fifth of the country's total population. Otherwise, the number of Japanese people who died because of this will more than double.

The "Cosmic Divine Cult" became the largest religious organization in the Wa Kingdom, and it was also the most cohesive organization, with a record 40 million adherents. Almost one-third of the country's living population, more than 90 percent of believers live in cities, and most of them are young adults and children.

Officials and clerks at all levels of the Japanese government, high-ranking generals and soldiers of the armed forces joined the "Cosmic Divine Cult" one after another, becoming faithful believers in the Divine Cult. Gradually, the "Cosmic Divine Cult" occupied a dominant position in the political territory of the Japanese Kingdom and became the main force dominating the political situation of the Japanese Kingdom, and the Army, Navy, and Air Self-Defense Forces of the Japanese Kingdom were also indirectly controlled by the "Cosmic Divine Cult" because of the presence of a large number of religious officers and soldiers, and became the invisible guard of the Divine Cult. The "Cosmic Cult" also formed its own guard force with the acquiescence of the Noda government, which was responsible for protecting the Shinto branch churches scattered throughout the country.

At a special session held three days earlier, more than 90 percent of the members of the Diet were followers of the "Cosmos-Cult," and at the behest of the Yakinisha, they passed a resolution abolishing the expression in the Constitution that "the Emperor is the symbol of the unity of the Wa Kingdom and its people," and a resolution was passed to establish the "Cosmic Religion" as the sole state religion of the Wa Kingdom. Prime Minister Noda, who learned of the Diet decision, out of desperation and without daring to disobey the "Cosmic Religion," made a televised speech to the whole nation in the afternoon of the same day, announcing the abolition of the imperial system and the "Cosmos" becoming the sole state religion of the Japanese country. Subsequently, five non-"Cosmic Cult" cabinet members, including Noda, announced their resignation, and immediately submitted an application to the "Cosmic Cult" to join the "Cosmic Cult" after stepping down. Shinichi Tani was elected by the Diet to take over as interim prime minister.

In his first televised speech in office, Prime Minister Gu Jing said that the shrine toilet would be abandoned, the people would be forbidden to worship the war criminals of the shrine, and the land and buildings of the shrine would be donated to the "Cosmic God Cult", which has made outstanding contributions to the country and the nation, as a place of worship for believers. Prime Minister Gu Jing also called on all Japanese citizens to actively join the "Cosmic God Cult." to purify your soul and defend against M1 germs.

In the following days, nearly 10,000 branches of the "Cosmic Divine Cult" set up in various parts of the country ushered in another upsurge of membership, receiving millions of people every day, and almost every branch had to absorb hundreds or nearly 1,000 Protestants a day. Within three days, 20 million Protestants were converted. The daily number of deaths reported by the Japanese state has shown a sharp downward trend, which has further encouraged the enthusiasm of the people of the whole country to join the Divine Religion.

In order to meet the large-scale tide of religious entry, Chen Yuxing arranged tens of thousands of biochemical people and robots at the entrances of various branches of the Wa Kingdom, almost keeping Niu Niu busy at full power for several days.

At this point, the followers of the "Cosmic God Sect" have reached more than half of the existing population of the Wa Kingdom, and it is already close to Chen Yuxing fully mastering the country. Mai Okochi took the place of the emperor as a matter of course and became the supreme saint in the hearts of the people of the Japanese country, and there was no one who stood at the top of the Japanese society.

It is not that the news of the rise of the "Cosmic Divine Cult" of the Wa Kingdom has not been reported to the island nation, but that the huge death toll of the Wa State has confused and paralyzed the governments of various countries.

No state or medical technician would believe that a religious group has the ability to prevent and treat M1 infectious diseases, and they also regard this spiritual sustenance as a kind of faith and comfort, and a temporary antidote that can make the lives of Japanese people happier.

In this way, the "Cosmic Divine Cult" completely occupied the spiritual realm of the Wa State at a lightning speed in a relatively closed country, and at the same time plundered nearly one-tenth of the wealth of the Wa State, which is not the total annual GDP of the Wa State, but the historical accumulation of the Wa society for nearly a thousand years, including the tangible and intangible assets of land, houses, and companies.

The three countries of the Arab Emirates and Southeast Asian countries are also most affected by the M-series infectious diseases, because of their economic backwardness, the low cultural quality of the people, the lack of self-protection awareness, and the lack of national experience in the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, the M-series infectious diseases have spread wantonly in these countries without encountering any obstacles. As a result, the number of deaths due to M-series infectious diseases in the three countries far exceeds that of the Japanese state, reaching more than 60 million, accounting for about 5 percent of the country's population.

The death toll in Southeast Asian countries is around 5% of the total population, and Indonesia has the largest number of deaths, reaching nearly 10 million. However, Southeast Asian countries have already detected the highest number of people infected with M-series bacteria, accounting for more than 30% of the total population, and within a month, this region will be the hardest hit area.

The number of deaths due to M-series infectious diseases in European countries, rice countries and South American countries is also increasing geometrically every day, and the number of deaths in Europe has exceeded 10 million, and the number of deaths in rice and South American countries has also reached more than 10 million. However, Africa is significantly better than other continents, first, because the statistical data is not timely and accurate, second, the infectivity of M germs in Africa has declined sharply, and third, Africa is vast and sparsely populated, and the residence is scattered, and there is no way for the germ to spread.

Although the number of deaths caused by M-series bacteria did not exceed the number of deaths in the first plague epidemic that led to the decline of the Eastern Roman Empire in the sixth century AD and the second plague pandemic in the 14th century AD, which led to the decline of Europe as a whole. But what is even more terrifying is that it is more contagious than the plague, and the mortality rate after infection is far greater than that of the plague.

This M-series infectious disease that swept through the world has caused a profound disaster to the world world, and until this time, the only country that can survive is Huaguo. (To be continued......)
