Chapter 353: Atlantis

The end of the world has not yet come, and the wheels of history are rolling forward, opening the chapter of 2013.

The first day of 2013 is a quiet New Year's Day, not only quiet, but also sinking, in the past month, because of the whale disaster, Buddha and people who were upset took the opportunity of the Mayan doomsday prophecy to vent their panic, resulting in riots and even riots in most countries around the world, now the end has been proven to be false, people finally stopped, in the New Year's Day, the day that should be celebrated, reflecting on the confusion of the past, tasting the bitterness in their hearts, especially those countries that have suffered from whale disasters, Buddhas, and abnormal weather, The future is bleak, and there is no interest in celebrating the New Year.

Not everyone did not celebrate, China, which accounts for one-fifth of the world's population, celebrated a little, compared with the riots and riots in Europe and the United States and other countries, China is relatively peaceful, after all, the system is different, and the situation of harmony and stability can be maintained. After seeing China's control, it is said that several democratic and liberal countries in Europe and the United States are considering whether to change the state system of government to a party-state system, but unfortunately their democratic and free citizens have vetoed it.

For Chinese, the reason why it is only a small celebration is because most Chinese do not regard New Year's Day as a new year, even if the Western calendar has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but Chinese culture has long been immersed in the bone marrow, the lunar calendar is the real New Year, the Western calendar is daily, and the lunar calendar is the destination.

February 9, 2013 is the day to remove the old and welcome the new, and February 10 is the new year.

It's still a while before February 9th, and today is Sunday, January 20th. Afternoon in China time, morning in Western European time.

The Strait of Gibraltar holds the throat of the Mediterranean and Atlantic shipping lanes, and its name comes from Gibraltar, a peninsula in southern Spain, which is still a British colony.

In the strait, merchant ships, cargo ships, fishing boats, and cruise ships sail in an orderly manner. At this time, the French liner Helen, which was about to enter the Atlantic through the western port, departed from the port of Marseille and was about to cross the Atlantic to the United States. It was a round-the-world journey from Panama into the Pacific Ocean and back to the Mediterranean via the Suez Canal from the Indian Ocean. Along the way, it will stop at several countries.

On the cruise, the rich people laughed and the beauties showed off their flowers, as if the gloom of last month had completely passed, and people always had to look forward.

On the top platform, there are several young men and women hooking up, discussing the culture of group X, and for a while, they are about to go back to the room to enjoy themselves, but the Helen suddenly "brakes".

"Oh, shit. What's going on? ”

"Did you hit the rocks?"

"How is that possible? This is Gibraltar, where is the reef? ”

"Oh God, look over there!"

Following the direction of someone's finger, everyone looked west. was immediately shocked, and even more beautiful women exclaimed: "Whale, whale disaster!" God, I don't want to die! ”

I saw that in the Atlantic Ocean on the west side of the strait, the originally calm sea suddenly had huge waves, and huge figures appeared.

"It's a blue whale! No, it's the monster blue whale in the whale disaster! My God. It seems to be more than forty meters! ”

"Oh, it's over, it's over, it's ten blue whales! Did they try to sink the Helen? ”

"Damn, and killer whales! Hateful killer whales! ”

"Bastard, it's a whale shark, oh my God, that whale shark has its mouth open, is that the black hole of death?"

"Octopus! Tentacle monsters! ”

Not only the young people on the platform, but everyone on the entire cruise ship was shocked and fell into extreme horror. It's not just the Helen, the Strait of Gibraltar is a major transportation route, and there are more ships coming in and out, and everyone nearby is panicking.

"Damn? What to do? ”

"Don't worry, baby, the whale plague must be here to hit Spain, the Helen is French, we will definitely be able to complete this round-the-world trip safely, and then go back to our hometown to get married." …,

Someone gritted his teeth: "Damn, is there a Spanish ship next to it?" Spain is going to commit suicide quickly, don't bother us. ”

Someone calmly ordered his subordinates: "Report to the Allied Command in Europe immediately and let them send out fighters." ”

The subordinate made a phone call and reported: "Boss, they don't agree!" ”

"What? How can it be? ”

The boss's face changed, although Europe and the United States are dressed in the skin of democracy, but it is those large consortia and families that really decide everything, he is the core member of one of the families, and he can make the European and American stock markets shake with a cough, how dare the NATO Allied Command in Europe refuse him? Not to mention the district command, even US President O'Ao Guanhai is just a puppet of these financial oligarchs.

"Did you not report my name?"

"Boss, I said it, but the person who answered the phone said that they would immediately send a helicopter to pick you up, but they would definitely not take the initiative to provoke a whale disaster."

The boss's anger rested for a while, and it was right to think about it, if it wasn't for the US military in the Philippines that attacked the whale school at the request of the Japanese government, the whale disaster might not have attacked the United States; Similarly, if the Koreans hadn't sent troops to besiege the whale plague monster in order to please the United States, they would not have been attacked by the whale plague.

It's not just this boss who is asking for help, except for the crew and waiters and some professional beauties on this cruise ship, the others are all upper-class people, powerful, rich and powerful.

"Hey, give me the Moroccan Prime Minister's Office, and ask him to immediately send troops to attack the whale plague...... What the? Don't say yes? Outrageous! Hmph, when Syria is over, I'll come to Morocco. ”

"Hey, French Ministry of Defense......"

"...... of the Spanish Ministry of Defense"

The upper echelons asked for help from the surrounding forces, and in the end, only the Spanish government promised to send troops immediately, anyway, Spain has been plagued by the whale plague, and since the whale plague monster has taken the initiative to surface, it is a good opportunity for revenge!

The Prime Minister of Spain made a decision, and the nominal supreme commander, the King of Spain, immediately called the Prince of Asturias, and the king was proud, we Spain is a country with aircraft carriers, and it is a strong country!

Unfortunately, his good mood was quickly ruined. The captain of the Prince of Asturias said on the phone: "Your Majesty, we can't drive this aircraft carrier." ”

"What?"

"The retirement of our aircraft carrier is imminent."

The king was furious: "Nima's, isn't it scheduled to retire on February 6 this year?" It's only January 20th! ”

"Your Majesty, everything on it has almost been dismantled."

"My day!" The king hung up the phone indignantly and called the Royal Spanish Air Force, the aircraft carrier is gone, but Spain is a great power. The Air Force can always fly out, right?

"Your Majesty, I regret to inform you that the Ministry of Defense has not paid us military salaries for half a year. In order that our lovely lads would not starve to death, we gave the oil to the soldiers. ”

The king put down the phone in despair, and the hair was oily? What a horrible thing!

Spain's economy is already sluggish. It is one of the "European pig five", which has fallen into an economic crisis before, and the whale disaster is the last straw that broke the camel's back, not only destroying the Spanish shipping industry, but also triggering a collapse chain reaction, resulting in the collapse of a number of famous Spanish industries, such as Spain's advantageous shipbuilding industry, such as La Liga, which the Spaniards are proud of, because of the economic crisis, La Liga in the 12-13 season has plummeted from 20 teams to 14. Even Barcelona defected to France and went to Ligue 1! Real Madrid didn't catch up and was thinking about whether to participate in the Portuguese Super League, but they felt too embarrassed.

With such a situation, the Spanish army was naturally unlucky. You are soldiers, you must understand the difficulties of the country, well, let's give you a few blank slips first, what? Don't have money to eat? Oh, understand understand. That's it, anyway, there is NATO, and the possibility of a war in Spain is not high, so let's take these aviation fuels and divide them first, and sell them for money.........

The army can't be counted on, but things have to be faced.

What to do?

A group of wealthy men summoned the captain of the Helen: "Turn around at once and go back to the Mediterranean." ”

The captain smiled bitterly: "The Helen ship is big, it's not good to turn around." ”

Of course, if there are few ships around, it will not be a problem, but the Strait of Gibraltar is a traffic artery, which is equivalent to the busiest highway on land.

The rich man said: "The back ships are not big, and your Helen has a large tonnage, so you forcibly rammed it back." ”

The captain rolled his eyes, was there a mistake? Not to mention whether it will damage the luxurious Helen, how can there be any reason to hit other people's ships in public? If he really hits, he will inevitably be arrested as a scapegoat afterwards, maybe in order to cover up the cruelty of these rich people, he will be "committed suicide in fear of crime"!

The captain said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we don't have to worry too much, we are a French ship, not a Spanish ship. ”

The rich man frowned, he was not afraid of ten thousand, he was afraid of what if, what if the whale disaster had to deal with France this time?

The whale plague suddenly surfaced and blocked the exit of the Strait of Gibraltar, what the hell are you trying to do?

"Captain!" The first mate hurriedly rushed in and grabbed the captain, "Quick, captain, go and see!" ”

"What's going on?" The captain was shocked, and hurriedly followed, and was stunned when he saw it.

"Huh? Look, everyone! ”

Not only the Helen, but all the people who were watching the whale disaster exclaimed.

"This ...... Is this a tablet? ”

"That's right, it's a tablet!" Someone with a telescope said, "What is this giant octopus doing with a tablet?" ”

"Oh, God, am I dreaming? Dude, take a look, what's that blue whale doing? ”

The man with the telescope was dumbfounded, only to see one of the blue whales open its mouth, and the tentacles of a giant octopus next to it reached into the mouth of the blue whale.

"This ...... That one...... Ah, I see! ”

"Tell me, tell me, what the hell is going on?"

"Well, well, I know a little bit about octopuses, and one of the eight brachiopods of male octopuses is called 'Wrist Transfer', well, that's our thing. Whenever an octopus mates, the male octopus inserts his wrist into the female octopus...... Now it seems that the blue whale is helping the giant octopus mouth x! ”

"Mouth x? Oh God, octopus and whale mouth x? I thought we were the only humans who could do this. ”

"Hmph, don't you understand? Have you ever watched some of the Japanese anime? The octopuses in it are like this, and can talk to any creature with holes. ”

"Really? Something is wrong! In case we fall into the hands of an octopus. Isn't it going to be forced? ”

At this time, another person next to him said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, this guy is poisoned by Japanese anime." Hey, look, what did the giant octopus pull out of the blue whale's mouth? ”

"Hey, I'll see, I'll see, uh, is it the blue whale that eats and gets stuck in the teeth? Giant octopuses doing 'toothpick' work? ”

Someone has watched too many horror movies. said: "Could it be that it was stuck in the mouth and directly pulled out the heart of the blue whale?" ”

"Ah, don't scare me! Hey. Why does it look like a safe? ”

"Oh, I see, this ferocious blue whale directly ate a boat. There is a safe on the boat, and the safes are relatively sturdy and difficult to digest, so please ask the giant octopus to help you take it out......"

"Oh God!"

"What's wrong again?"

"That giant octopus is twisting the knob of the safe! It's unboxing! ”

"What's wrong with opening the box? The octopus is more intelligent, for example, it can open the cap of the bottle and eat the small shrimp in the bottle. ”…,

"Stupid, it's completely different, the cap will open when you twist it. But in general, the knobs of the safe must have a pattern, unless the octopus knows the pattern...... My day, it really opened! Hey, the octopus took it out of the safe...... A horn? ”

"It's weird. Who locks a horn in a safe? Isn't this horn special? ”

"Oh God, the octopus is pointing the speaker at the tablet, is it preparing for amplification? How can it be? ”

Even though the whale plague has caused terrible disasters to several human countries, human beings still believe that it is impossible for whale plague monsters to reach human intelligence. This is the pride of humanity as the spirit of all things.

But the next moment, this pride was trampled on!

I saw the giant octopus press on the tablet, and then one tentacle held the tablet, and the other tentacle held the horn, and placed the horn in front of the speaker of the tablet.

β€œΗ˜ΔΕΔ“ΓΌTΔ“Η–Η–Ε«???? ……”

The speaker apparently has a powerful amplification function, and it emits a high-pitched and passionate sound when the tablet recordings are played.

"This, this, this...... How is this possible? ”

Humans can't believe that the whale plague monster is actually using tools! What is it passing on!

Someone lost his soul, doesn't this mean that the whale plague monster has no less intelligence than humans? This means that humanity will no longer be the rightful ruler of the planet!

Some people actually began to worship the whale plague monster, with the whale disaster, Buddha and other supernatural events, many people believe that the whale disaster is the subordinate of a certain god and demon, and now it must be an oracle to mankind!

"The whale plague must be our apostles of God on the Cross, hurry up and worship!"

"Ridiculous, the whale plague must be the pet of our Buddha, our Buddha is a manifestation, a real existence, like your cross god, it is made up at all."

"Damn heretic, I'm going to punish you on God's behalf!"

"What you said is not right, this is the outlet of the Mediterranean, this sea must be the territory of our great sea god Poseidon, the whale plague monster, no, the whale plague holy beast must be the messenger of His Majesty Poseidon."

No matter how you argue, since the whale plague is obviously communicating with humans, there has to be a response, otherwise wouldn't it be bad if it provokes the whale plague?

"God, what nonsense the whale plague is saying, I don't understand it at all."

"We don't understand."

"Me too."

"Huh?" The man who said Poseidon just now was stunned.

The person next to him immediately asked, "What?" Can you understand? ”

The man frowned, listened to the repeated recordings from the loudspeaker, learned to speak a few syllables, frowned for a while, and after a long time, finally confirmed: "It's our Greek, no, it's ancient Greek!" ”

Ancient Greek and Modern Greek are two different languages, but Modern Greek contains more or less some of the syllables of Ancient Greek. But there are only some syllables, and in general, the Greeks cannot understand ancient Greek unless they learn it specifically. Now this man is a Greek, barely recognizable as an ancient Greek word, but he does not understand the exact meaning.

The person next to him immediately roared: "Wow, it turned out that you Greeks are doing ghosts!" Are you Greece going to be the public enemy of mankind? ”

The Greek quickly shook his head and said, "What's the matter with me? Besides, the whale plague is in ancient Greek. Even if it's related, it's related to the ancient Greeks, not to us Greeks. ”

There are not only linguistic differences, but also ethnic differences.

As for the difference...... Let's take an example that will never happen, there are Chinese and Japanese people in East Asia, and the Chinese have inherited 5,000 years of civilization, and one day, China will decline again. Japan rose again, and then completely destroyed China and killed all the Chinese - of course. This will never be possible - and then the Japanese stay on Chinese soil, and in order to prove that they have a long cultural heritage, they no longer call themselves Japanese. Instead, he called himself Chinese and said that "we have inherited 5,000 years of Chinese history." …,

The same is true between ancient Greece and Greece.

For example, the current Indians are not the descendants of the ancient Indian civilization, the current Egyptians are not the descendants of the ancient Egyptian civilization, and the ancient civilizations have been wiped out by foreign races, and then the aliens say that we are the inheritors of the ancient Egyptian and ancient Indian civilizations, we are glorious, and we are great......

Even doing very different things while saying how and how. Just like the Greeks, when it comes to the inheritance of civilization, what Olympics, what Zeus, Poseidon, Athena, as if they are the descendants or inheritors of these gods. But according to several different statistics, 81% and 97% of Greeks believed in the God of the Cross!

If one day, just like the return of Quetzalcoatl, the twelve main gods of Olympus in Greece also returned, and saw that the people living in their land were all heretics who believed in the God of the Cross, and probably flooded and drowned these 97% of the people - it seems that every religion and god system likes to flood.

But at this moment. Even if the Greek clarified that he had nothing to do with ancient Greece, he would inevitably be beaten up by the angry people.

In fact, the people who beat him don't know it, the reason why they beat people is not to punish anyone, but to vent their own inner fears, the whale disaster directly communicated with humans, what does this mean? It represents that the history of mankind will go to the unknown, and they fear the unknown.

The people on the Helen and the ships around it couldn't understand ancient Greek, but it was a big deal for humans, and many different people were doing the same thing, and they recorded the sound from the loudspeakers, sent it to various governments, to various media, and soon the world knew what was happening in the Strait of Gibraltar.

At this moment, almost all countries stopped their original television programs and began to broadcast or rebroadcast the Strait of Gibraltar, and everyone who saw the TV or watched it on the Internet was holding their breath and waiting for the final result.

There are people in Greece who specialize in ancient Greek, and there are a few in other countries who are interested in ancient Greek, and these ancient Greek experts can certainly understand it and quickly translate it into the languages of various countries. The translation is similar in each country, but the meaning is the same, and one of them translates as follows:

"On behalf of Atlantis, I solemnly declare that we have returned."

"The Atlantic Ocean and its affiliated waters, the Mediterranean, are an integral part of Atlantis' territorial waters. Historically, geographically, and legally, the Atlantic Ocean is the inherent territorial waters of Atlantis, over which Atlantis has indisputable sovereignty. ”

"It is illegal and invalid for the terrestrial terrans to use the space of the Atlantis expedition to steal the Atlantic. We resolutely oppose and restrain any form of encroachment by the terrestrial human race on Atlantis' sovereignty over the Atlantic. ”

"Atlantis' position on the Atlantic issue is clear and consistent, its will to safeguard national sovereignty and the integrity of its territorial waters is unwavering, and its determination to defend the dignity of sovereignty is unwavering."

"Atlantis strongly urges the terrestrial peoples, respect history, and immediately stop all acts that undermine the sovereignty of Atlantis' territorial waters. Atlantis will take all necessary means, including war, to resolutely defend its sovereignty over territorial waters. ”

"Don't be unpredictable!"

There are 6 billion people in the world, and no less than 2 billion are watching and listening to this paragraph at this time, and everyone is dumbfounded.

"Atlantis? Could it be that what Plato said is true? ”

According to the ancient Greek Plato, Atlantis was founded by Poseidon, the god of the sea, and was not originally in the sea, but angered Zeus and was washed into the sea by Zeus's great flood. But Atlantis should also be human, why are they all octopuses, whales, and sharks? ”…,

"Is it degradation? According to evolutionary theory, all life on land was originally in the sea, since it can evolve from marine life to land life. Then the Atlanteans lived in the sea for a long time, and maybe they degenerated into octopuses or something. ”

"No, no, no, I guess it's still human, but now it's the demonic beasts domesticated by the Atlanteans."

"By the way, have you noticed that Atlantis once went on an expedition to the Otherworld! Could it be that there are many planes in this world? Are we the main plane? Or is it the theory of parallel space-time? Maybe it's really possible. ”

"Huh? Dude, what are you settling about? ”

"Well, I was thinking that this announcement would look familiar. How does it seem to be similar to our country's declaration of Diaoyu Dao and South China Sea Island? ”

"You must be thinking too much, this is a paraphrase, the Atlantean octopus speaks ancient Greek. This is certainly not the case in the original context, but it is only in the pursuit of Sindhaya that our translators have made it like this. ”

"Obviously, I can't agree to this kind of request. Atlantic Ocean? If Nima's Atlantic Ocean becomes Atlantis' inherent territorial waters, will no other country be able to sail? The Mediterranean Sea is definitely a subsidiary of the Atlantic Ocean, the North Sea, the Caribbean Sea, the Baltic Sea, and the Black Sea...... This series of seas should be counted, right? Once the request is agreed, Europe and the United States are finished. ”

"Damn, it's our business that Europe and the United States are finished."

"Stupid, now it's globalization and internationalization, and a lot of our raw materials, including the final products, have to go by sea, what if we don't have the Atlantic?"

"It's weird. Is the whale plague really Atlanteans? If it is true, the whale disaster is just to deal with Spain and the United States, but why to deal with Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam? ”

"I guess it's not necessarily a whale disaster."

"How?"

"You think, the whale monster is definitely not the Atlanteans themselves, just domesticated monsters. Since the Atlanteans can domesticate Warcraft. What about the others? Why is there only Atlantis, only Buddha? Now that they have all come out, then maybe there will be a Dragon King of the East China Sea on our side, and maybe a Dragon King of the South China Sea, the Dragon King of the South China Sea will punish Vietnam, and the Dragon King of the East China Sea will punish Japan and South Korea. ”

"Although there is some truth to it. But it's still a guess. ”

The people are speculating, but the governments are facing the enemy.

In the past, countries also had such and such speculations about whale disasters, characterized as the enemy of mankind, but after all, there is no clear empirical evidence, and now it is different, people have directly asked for territorial waters, and they will take away the Atlantic Ocean all of a sudden!

This is the Atlantic Ocean, the second largest of the four oceans on earth, with an area of 82,217,000 square kilometers! Even if mankind carved out the Antarctic Ocean again, and the four oceans became the five oceans, the Atlantic Ocean still maintained 76,762,000 square kilometers!

Not to mention that the vast ocean contains endless resources, the right of navigation alone does not allow human beings to compromise, the right of navigation involves political, economic, and military aspects, taking the United States as an example, the reason why it is the leader of the Western world is not because of democracy and freedom, but because the United States has the strongest navy, so strong that the navies of all other countries combined are not the opponent of the US Navy.

But if the Atlantic Ocean is lost, the US Navy can only go to the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, then it will inevitably lose its deterrence against all of Europe, most of South America, and most of Africa.

With the Atlantis Declaration, governments moved quickly, the United Nations, NATO, the European Union, animal protection organizations, ...... One organization after another put down all their original affairs and were all discussing Trandis.

"How can such a vast ocean be given to someone else? No, the entire earth belongs to us humans, and we must not coexist with the Atlanteans! The representative of the United States shouted hoarsely at the United Nations, "Now that the greatest crisis of mankind has arrived, all mankind must unite to form a human alliance with the United States as the core and completely exterminate Atlantis!" ”

The representative of China raised his hand and spoke: "I think we should pay attention to democracy and freedom, we do not oppose the establishment of a system such as the Earth Federation and the Human Alliance, but everyone must vote, China has 1.3 billion people, which is fully one-fifth of the human race, and we are the core of course." ”

The Russian representative played a round: "Actually, the current United Nations is quite good, and it is still up to our five hooligans, no, the five permanent members of the Security Council to make democratic decisions." ”

The representative of Greece spoke: "First of all, we in Greece have nothing to do with Atlantis. And then there's the point, if it works, of course we want to eliminate Atlantis, but judging by the results of the past year and a half, countries are helpless against the whale plague. If we don't compromise, I'm afraid that the whale plague will indiscriminately attack the merchant ships of various countries, and it will not be good for us humans, and I think that since the other side has wisdom, we can negotiate. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
