The five men did not answer him, but exchanged glances silently and almost imperceptibly with her expressions of hesitation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I can't rule it out," said Victor, "but for the time being there is no weapon that can strike us -- unless there is a wizard to help them." He took off his military hat and brushed his hair, "If that's the case, we're in big trouble." ”

They nodded in agreement. Phoenix got up and scratched his forehead and walked to the balcony. The others followed, and Loft stepped forward and said, "They won't decide to attack, even with the help of a wizard." Besides, I don't believe that there are such unpromising people among wizards, who are with Muggle unions. ”

Phoenix turned his head to look at him, his gaze solemn, and he couldn't help but take a step back. The others were displeased when they heard Love's words, but they were not in a position to refute them.

"Do you have evidence that wizards didn't help the Muggle government?" Phoenix said without waiting for an answer, "If wizards helped, how would they attack?"

This is a question that is a bit difficult for everyone present to answer. After a moment of silence, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the clear blue sky. Thick white clouds, clumps like cotton. There was a peculiar cloud that was orange for some reason, and then a bright orange object dragged a long trail towards the city with only vague shadows on the horizon.

Before Phoenix could comprehend, a sudden burst of intense light shone out from afar, like the sun, and the dazzling light almost made Phoenix's eyes hurt excruciously. Even if you close your eyes, all you see is white light.

As he forced himself to stay awake, Phoenix felt his bare arms and face burn hot, like someone burning with a red-hot soldering iron. Then an irresistible wind blew, and Phoenix magic Animagus turned into a golden-red flame that enveloped the balcony.

……

Half an hour ago.

"Mr. President, the Alpha launch group of the American Militia missiles is unfolding. ”

"The American strategic bomber battle group is approaching the border at full speed and is expected to cross the border in 10 minutes. The Russian Defense Minister solemnly reported to the president, "The Kyiv Military District and the local government have ordered an evacuation." ”

"The U.S. anti-satellite missile system has been launched, and in 2 minutes the backup satellite system to destroy our spy satellite in space is activating-"

Before a message is heard, new news is forced into the ears, and each time it is more and more shocking.

"It is reported that 10 American B-52 strategic bombers arrived in the area of the center line of the Bering Strait. An officer ran forward and read the latest news aloud.

Are the Americans crazy? The Cold War is over, and now the whole world is struggling with a huge catastrophe, but they are still going to start a nuclear war. Do they think that with their present military strength, they can wipe out all of Russia's resistance and second-strike capabilities in an instant? Do they really think that Russia has not properly maintained the strategic nuclear forces left by the Soviet Union?

"Now I declare a state of emergency," said the Russian President word for word, "to activate the Snagar communication, I would like to speak with the President of the United States—"

"Pardon me for being rude, Mr. President. The Minister of Defense roared, "You don't understand, we only have 10 minutes, and we will start a counterattack immediately-"

"I am the president of Russia, and I know very well the power in my hands, and I need to be responsible for all of humanity. The Russian president calmly said, "I know that time is tight, but I must confirm." ”

After speaking, an officer followed him and walked to the Snagar communication room next to the command hall, where there was only a computer and a translation officer. The room was built last year, and everything is brand new and out of place with the décor in the command hall.

Through the one-way glass, you can see everything on the big screen and in the command hall.

"You all go out. ”

The president's first sentence stunned the translation officer. Snaga is an emergency hotline for China, the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom, and France, and if he does not have an interpreter, it will be difficult for the president to rely on the other side's interpreter officers. But the officer's mental activity did not manifest itself, and he immediately withdrew from the room.

When the president sat down, the leaders of the United States, China and Britain were there, and the French president was offline.

"What the hell is going on?" asked the British Prime Minister sternly, "we all admit that there is no need to think about it, it must have been done by a wizard." But don't forget, their government forces saved us just a few hours ago, and it's unreasonable for you to think they're enemies. ”

"You calm down, nuclear weapons are by no means an effective weapon against wizards. And most wizards are by no means thugs or executioners, and we are going to kill all them at the moment - besides, with what we know about them, it is impossible to do that. The Chinese leaders also tried to dissuade them.

No one noticed that the Russian president was online, but after listening to a few words, he understood why the United States suddenly made such a big move. But it doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all. Looking at this "unfamiliar face" -- the crash of the US president's plane, the announcement of the vice president's succession to the throne is already well known.

The Chinese and British leaders are right, but what the Russian president is uneasy about is the attitude of the United States.

"Believe me, the U.S. military can do it. The president of the United States looked indifferent, "It just so happens that the Russians are also coming, so I won't wait for France." We have mastered that most of the activities of wizards are in the capitals, and we can deal with them. They can no longer be allowed to travel outside the government and the law to see what they have done. This time I confess - I choose to believe the promise made to me by the President of the Magical Congress of America that America will be safe. But what if one day a madman comes to power?"

His last words were addressed to the Prime Minister.

"Wait quietly for destruction. He shook his head, "As leaders of the country, we are all responsible for our own people. ”

"Calm down, the targets of all nuclear weapons are predetermined, and we don't know where in the capital of wizard activity at all. And countries such as Switzerland and Egypt are not in the preset goal at all. These were the first words of the Russian president, "We all take a step back, we need to communicate with the wizarding world." They asked for a meeting with us for a few hours, and we might as well wait until the meeting was over. ”

After listening to the words of the Russian president, the heads of the other two countries were expecting a reply from the American president.

"Trust me, the U.S. military can do it. I regret the accidental injury, after all, there are always people killed in war. He only smiled slightly, "I don't have time for you to chat here, I'll leave it all to say." ”

With that, the President got up and left the Snaga communications room, and a few vague words came from his voice, "Bring the briefcase--Activate the launch procedure authorization-"

Several leaders looked at each other. They all know what that means. During the Cold War, in order to cope with the imminent outbreak of a nuclear war, nuclear submarines, backup launch bases, and other places had the right to launch nuclear weapons on their own.

Now the right to launch nuclear weapons of all nuclear powers has been transferred to the head of state, and no nuclear weapon can be activated without the authorization of the head.

He's going to do it!
