Chapter 718: Announcing the Truth
It's not difficult to control the neutral merchant alliance and find some mercenaries, but in order to take care of the perception of these heroes, you have to pick those who sell better, which makes Death Knell, who is in charge of extraterrestrial affairs, a headache for a long time.
Diana also told about the reinforcements she had brought in, and the rest of her eyes looked at Aquaman.
"Atlantis sent 10,000 troops......" Aquaman was a little embarrassed.
"You're kidding!" Batman said gloomily.
"How dare you speak to me like that! we have our problems!" Arthur Curry's temper was as violent as ever.
Needless to say, it's their family's bullshit again, as the nominal host, Thea still has to come out to play a round, "Shut up for me, you Atlantis have too few troops, at present, the countries on the ground are expected to dispatch seven million troops, and there will be the same number of troops mobilized in the future, and in two months, 10 million elite troops will be stationed in the New World, and your 10,000 people are too few." ”
Aquaman don't look too much, he doesn't seem to want to say much.
Several heroes were all helpless, Thea rubbed her head, thought for a while and said, "I don't have an opinion on your government, if I help you win over the priesthood, can your royal family suppress the Council of Elders?
"There should be about a million, with all the equipment, and the people of Mera will also send three thousand. Aquaman thought for a moment and said.
Thea sighed, "Okay, I'll take care of this." "Throw the Dead King to Poseidon, and let him send down an oracle and urge the priests to send an army together.
The problem of Atlantis was resolved smoothly, and with the support of the priests, Atlantana dismissed the three elders in one fell swoop, replaced them with her own cronies, and happily stated that she would personally lead an army of two million into battle.
......
On the ground, which was already on the verge of panic, Moira changed the tradition of only speaking on television on Fridays, brainwashing citizens every night for three days.
The content of this fireside chat is much more popular than Roosevelt's New Deal and the Gulf War. Despite her understatement, many people were taken aback. According to a social networking site, we are not afraid of dealing with earthlings, but a large-scale alien invasion? Can I hide in the countryside?
In the movie, aliens are like mentally retarded, often played by several protagonists, if it is in the theater it must be fun, but become a reality?
The work done by the Earth Alien Management Committee for so many years still cannot eliminate the scruples in everyone's hearts.
There is a very representative point of view among ordinary people, most of them think that the aliens on the earth today are weak chickens, equivalent to the level of the Indians, and what is coming this time?
The Quinn Group, the Wayne Group, and the now much worse Luthor Group have instructed several news outlets that hold their holdings to publish various articles to boost morale.
The general idea is that we earthlings are awesome, that is, invincible, but unfortunately the effect is not great.
Early on Monday morning, after three days of bombardment, the lawn in front of the White House has reached its highest level of public tolerance, where Moira is going to hold a briefing for the world's media.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I will use the word compatriot here, because the next catastrophe is not directed against any single country, but against all of us on earth. ”
"We must put aside our disputes, put aside our hatred, take up the weapons at your disposal, and protect our families, for our enemy is coming, and he is strong and cunning, and if anyone is lucky, then his future can only be spent in pain. ”
"Maybe there are some people who don't believe it, and even use conspiracy theories to think that I want to seize power, this kind of person who still has malicious intentions at the moment of human existence, I can only say that I cherish it, because I can't care so much. Myself, my sons and daughters will join the fight, and as an ordinary mother, I am both proud and worried. ”
"If they die on the battlefield, what more rights do I, the poor old woman, need?"
Moira's talent for selling miserably has long been full, and many reporters at the scene were infected by her tragedy.
For example, Carla Danvers, an honest child, has red eyes.
Moira saw that it was working well, and changed her words, "But if you believe me, I will fight to the end." Some people may wonder whether diplomacy is acceptable, and whether paying a certain price can avoid war. We are not reckless soldiers, but the situation is far from optimistic. ”
"Several superheroes risked their lives to shoot each other's ferocity, now let's show you. Moira finished and motioned to the staff on the side to show it.
There is definitely no big screen in front of the lawn, and Thea gives the White House an alien light curtain to show ordinary people how tragic Earth 2 is, which is not appropriate, and she has to spend her tongue explaining the things of parallel time and space.
She edited a few footage of Darkseid's army conquering the rest of the planets, and these new creation stars were also used as a textbook for memories, and they were shown to newborns when they had nothing to do, and the shooting angles were almost perfect, fully reflecting the characteristics of Darkseid's passage to the point where no grass grows.
The state-of-the-art light curtain caused a wave of amazement, but their attention was quickly distracted.
Looking at the blood-red sky, the ruined city, countless monsters are burning and looting, rivers of blood, and stumps are all over the ground. Ordinary people born in peacetime are completely unacceptable.
"This is a movie...... some people said that they didn't quite believe it.
"Ah——" A White House staff member hurriedly covered his mouth when he saw a murderous picture, afraid that he would shout.
"Such a vicious enemy!" a certain bearded reporter couldn't help but scold angrily when he saw the Apocalypse Demon in the picture tearing an alien child who looked like a toddler.
Moira saw that the heat was about the same, motioned to the staff to stop the screening, pointed to the beard just now, and said: "This journalist friend is right, how can we negotiate with such a brutal enemy? Can we rely on the flesh and blood of our citizens to satisfy the cruel desires of the other party? What if the other party asks us to hand over a large number of people to be slaves? The will of freedom and democracy does not allow me to do this!"
"For my children, for my family, I'm going to fight, I'm going to fight to the end!" Moira shouted hoarsely.
There was a burst of applause at the scene, no one jumped out of the cracks in the stones, there were old and young, Moira's family as a breakthrough is very in line with the minds of ordinary people.
After the general direction was finished, Moira left the stage amid many warm applause, and changed the Minister of Defense Lane to talk about the deployment of his troops.
At first, the old man was afraid that the enemy would get the information, but Thea directly dispelled his concerns, you pull it down, Darkseid never cared who the enemy was, he only asked where the enemy was! Without his own god in front, the tens of billions of troops are useless, rest assured and bold, the enemy doesn't care about our troop deployment at all.
