269. Break the silence

Washington, White House, Oval Office. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

President of the Nation of Palmer. Royce is enjoying a regular half-hour break with his dog every morning. It's his habit, and unless there's an emergency, no one comes to bother him.

People who only know work without rest are like cars without brake pads. Mr. President agrees with Ford Sr.'s famous remark.

During this short break, Mr. President would never take the initiative to touch those annoying tasks, such as the assessment in Upper Niuyo Bay this morning, and he turned off the television halfway through it - with the presence of the two aircraft carrier formations in Upper Niuyo Bay, it was enough to deal with any unexpected situation.

He took a sip of coffee, bent down and rubbed the neck of his dog, Pitch, and while playing with the little nine-month-old Yorkshire dog, a chaotic running sound came from the hallway. The sound of running is loud and urgent, which is a sign that something less pleasant may be happening.

"Mr. President, we have big. Trouble! Suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open, and a group of senior officials, including the vice president and the defense minister, squeezed into the 75.8-square-meter room. National Security Adviser John Borman, who was over 70 years old, rushed in at a pace that would have made Bolt ashamed, put his laptop on the famous resolute desk, and turned the screen to Royce.

The spectacle of hundreds of warships gathering in the bay of Upper Niuyo instantly made Mr. President forget his displeasure at being interrupted.

If you think about it, just 20 minutes ago, it was still calm in the bay of Shangniu, how could it be like this after 20 minutes? Such a huge fleet actually appeared in the inland sea of the country, could it be that all the early warning systems of the country of Japan have struck?

Suddenly, Mr. President remembered the information that the Shen Guoren had transmitted through a special channel, and the intelligence showed that a German with a second-level supernatural ability was likely to list the Shen Guo as a target!

At that time, the 72-year-old senior national security adviser reported to him that the reliability of the information sent by Shen Guoren was judged to be more than 50%, which is also the reason why there are two aircraft carrier fleets in Shangniuyo Bay instead of one.

As far as common sense goes, the combat power of the two aircraft carrier formations is enough to challenge and even defeat 80 percent of the world's countries, and even a few days ago the finance minister complained to himself, believing that dispatching so many warships is a complete fuss, and that it is useless at all except to increase the financial burden. But now it seems that in the face of a powerful supernatural power owner, it is not enough!

"And that's not all." Before he had time to observe Mr. President's very ugly face, Borman raised the document in his other hand: "What's even more terrifying is that from the southern tip of the Manhattan Peninsula, the infection caused by unknown causes is spreading widely, and it is currently speculated that it should be a virulent virus, which spreads extremely fast, and a large number of infected people have died!" ”

Hearing this, Mr. President's head finally "buzzed", although the fleet in the bay of Shangniuyo was spectacular and showed enough hostility, but after all, it had not launched an attack, and if there was no attack, there would naturally be no casualties. But according to Borman's intelligence, mass casualties have begun to occur on the Manhattan Peninsula, which is a densely populated area! When was the last time this happened?

"Do you have exact data?" Mr. President forced himself to remain calm.

"There is no exact data, but there are at least a thousand people visually!" Borman's voice was a little dry. The death of a thousand people, and still in the country itself, or in the covenant! What's even more terrifying is that this number is still climbing at a crazy rate! Borman couldn't believe it, but he had to believe it, because the data from the button was so irrefutable.

"We don't know the real cause of this mass of deaths, nor the way it was transmitted, but we only know that those infected are in extreme pain, and the speed and scope of transmission are extremely alarming. In light of this, our staff in the vicinity have begun an emergency evacuation. Borman said in a trembling voice.

"Isn't there any way to control the spread?" Royce looked up.

"Cut off Manhattan's access to the outside world, closely monitor the scope of the infection, and if it still can't stop the infection, then the only way to do it is to take drastic measures, sir." Borman said with difficulty.

The drastic measures, though not stated, were known to everyone present what Borman was talking about, and for a moment there was only a heavy gasp in the entire Oval Office.

"You're trying to bomb Nexo with a nuclear bomb? That's a city of over 8 million people! Royce slammed the table. He was angry and scared, not because Borman was wrong, but because he was right, and if things really got out of hand, the activation of nuclear weapons was a must. But the problem is that the order for a nuclear attack must be decided by oneself, even if it turns out that he is right, the president of the first country to launch nuclear weapons on his own city, Royce does not dare to imagine.

What's more, although the death toll is now a thousand, it seems to be extremely high, but if you order the bombing, the death toll will be in the millions!

"Why did this happen during your tenure?" Mr. President's heart is secretly hateful.

At this moment, the phone on the desk rang, it was a newly installed green phone, and the other end of the phone was connected to the leader of the will of God, the supreme organization of the superpower of the country, that is, the old Lieutenant General Geld, who was on the scene at the moment!

Everyone's eyes turned away, and an even more uneasy feeling came to everyone's hearts.

"I'm Royce, and I hope what you're telling me is good news." Royce finished answering the phone as the crowd watched.

It's a pity that today seems to be an unlucky day for Mr. President, and from the phone he heard even more terrible news than Borman.

"We really have big. Trouble. Somewhat dejected, he put down the phone, and Reus's face was full of bitterness.

Sandbox, supernatural weapon test, observer, apocalypse, after hearing Mr. President's relay, the whole office was silent.

"If everything is true, the development of events is no longer confined to the contract, and we can only hope that those who are capable on the ground can defeat the enemy." Mr. President said helplessly. Although the final outcome of the earth is doomed, according to Licht, no matter who wins or loses, it is clear that it is much better to support oneself than to believe in the Germans.

However, according to the news from Lieutenant General Geld the Elder, the situation on the scene is not good, not only is the strength of the German Licht side strong, but he is also disintegrating and dividing the owners of supernatural powers present.

"Tell me, who has defected?" Mr. President asked in a low voice.

"Not yet, the Germans are still waiting for a reply." As soon as Lieutenant General Gerd Sr. finished speaking, a new change occurred on the deck of the Roosevelt.

"I'd like to join you." A female voice broke the silence and walked slowly towards Licht.
