Chapter 283: No Way Back
When everyone was most desperate, Mu Chen reached out and stabbed the wound again, not caring if they could stand it or not.
"I only received the news of the imminent invasion of the solar system by the Zerg in the last few days, and the Earth Federation knew about it a little earlier, so there were two voices."
Mu Chen glanced at the audience, and then said: "Actually, it can be summarized simply as running away and resisting. ”
The audience was in an uproar again, on the one hand, they were dissatisfied with the Earth Federation for hiding this news, and on the other hand, they were analyzing the pros and cons of these two countermeasures.
Mu Chen didn't intervene, just sat in his position with his hands folded, crossed Erlang's legs, and watched everyone's expressions.
Those in the audience were nervous, sad, or excited...... There are all kinds of strange emotions, but Mu Chen shook his head in disappointment, the earth has been calm for too long, it has been a long time since a large-scale battle, and everyone has long forgotten how to be tough.
The reporters in the audience are the epitome of all earthlings, they are angry, afraid, frightened, and cowardly, but none of them dare to stand up and say that they are willing to fight the Zerg to the end.
This is also the reason why in Mu Chen's view, the earthlings will undoubtedly lose, the warriors do not have the ruthlessness to dare to fight with the enemy in their hearts, and no matter how good the weapon is, it is useless.
Mu Chen watched quietly for a long time, but his heart became more and more disappointed, he found that some people had already begun to plan to stock up on supplies for emergencies, and there were many people looking for a way to escape from the solar system.
Mu Chen took out the cigarette in his pocket, sighed, lit the cigarette and smoked it by himself, no longer looking at the people in the audience.
After a long time, the reporter in the audience finally quieted down, and the beautiful reporter raised her hand tremblingly, wanting to ask a question.
Mu Chen shook his head at her and said, "I know what you want to ask. ”
Glancing at the people with anticipation in their eyes, Mu Chen said coldly: "Don't think about escaping to other galaxies, this won't work on us earthlings......"
"Proxima Centauri has powerful jump technology, which can support them to escape from their own planet with a part of their people and go to other galaxies to seek a glimmer of life, but I have already contacted the people of the Proxima Centauri royal family, with our production capacity, if we want to produce a Proxima Centauri jump engine to achieve space jumping, even if Proxima Centauri provides us with technical support, it will take at least 20 years to complete."
"It's been less than three years since the Zerg arrived in the solar system, and it's only 800 Earth days, or more than 19,200 hours, which is not enough for us to produce even one jump engine."
Immediately, a reporter asked, "Can you ask Proxima Centauri to take us away?" ”
When Mu Chen heard this question, he couldn't help laughing: "This is the most ridiculous topic I've ever heard, the warships of the Proxima Centauri can't even fit their own people, why should they leave with you?" Are you good-looking? ”
"Don't fantasize, we earthlings have no way out, the fastest space vehicle can't fly at the speed of light, and even the speed can't even reach the speed of the Zerg's invasion, even if you escape from now on, when the Zerg arrives, you may not even escape the solar system."
"Except to fight to the death, for our offspring, or for the offspring of offspring
Buying some time, we have no choice! ”
As soon as Mu Chen's words fell, the audience was in a commotion again, and the last glimmer of hope in their hearts was also shattered, many people shed tears helplessly, fell to the ground in despair, and some people broke down and pulled their hair, unwilling to accept this fact.
But they also knew that Mu Chen would not joke about this kind of thing, no matter what the purpose, he would not be able to deceive the public.
"General Mu Chen, isn't there any chance that our Space Force will win against the Zerg?" A reporter seemed to want to grasp the last straw, and anxiously leaned on the side of the stage and asked.
Mu Chen shook his head, and when the other party almost cried bitterly, he said slowly: "I don't know ......"
"You say you don't know? Is it still possible to win? The reporter was keen to grasp the loopholes in Mu Chenhua's words, and eagerly hoped to hear some good news.
Today's press conference made all the reporters hate their work, because they are the closest to the truth, and they are also the people who have been hurt by the truth the most, and everyone can see that the Grim Reaper, who has always been full of confidence, has no bottom in his heart at this time, which makes them feel a deep sense of fear.
"I haven't really fought, and I can't say if I'll be able to get a short-lived victory." Mu Chen honestly said what he thought in his heart.
The battle is not something that can be accurately predicted simply by relying on the existing information, only after the real war can we analyze the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and us, and without fighting with the Zerg army, Mu Chen cannot give you an accurate answer.
But this sentence undoubtedly gave everyone a little comfort and hope, although this mission was completely impossible to complete in their opinion, even the powerful Proxima Centauri Super Fleet had returned, how could the Earth Federation Space Force, which was obviously a grade behind, win.
But this is General Mu Chen, the undefeated Grim Reaper in everyone's hearts, which of his battles does not seem to dare to win, as long as he is there, there is a possibility of a miracle.
Mu Chen stood up again, like a peerless blade out of the sheath, blooming with a cold cold light, looking at the sky above his head, he sighed and said: "I decided to lead a fleet to take the initiative to approach the Zerg before they reach the solar system, to test whether our weapons can effectively kill them, and keep the Zerg out of the solar system as much as possible." ”
Mu Chen's voice was very low, as if with a thick reluctance and hesitation, but then he became firm.
"Before that, I need to unite all the forces that can unite and build an indestructible battleship, so ......"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the tall figure, expecting what he was going to say next.
"Therefore, the Earth Federation can no longer be leaderless, I need to complete the cleaning and tidying up work in the shortest possible time, this matter is closely related to everyone, and there is only one way to die if I catch anyone who is holding me back!"
Mu Chen's attitude is unquestionable, and the determination revealed is also extremely firm.
If anyone dares to make trouble for him at this time, Mu Chen will not hesitate to send him to God, one person will kill one person if he drags his feet, and if ten thousand people drag his legs, he will kill ten thousand people, if everyone drags his feet, then everyone will wait for death together.

Dust took out a huge hourglass from his feet and placed it in front of everyone.
"This hourglass is the countdown to the Zerg invasion, I found a craftsman to make it, when the sand inside runs out, if we haven't found a way to resist the Zerg, then human civilization will come to an end, maybe self-determination will be a good choice."
"But before that, let's try hard again for the sake of the future of mankind, for the sake of each of your families and children, and for the children's children, at least when failure comes, we can smile and tell ourselves, I did my best!"
This is really to turn grief and anger into strength, Mu Chen first put all the internal and external troubles faced by the Earth Federation in front of everyone, and told everyone without reservation that we have no way back, and we can't expect anyone to help the people of the earth through the difficulties.
When everyone was almost desperate and collapsed, Mu Chen said the only way that could give the earthlings a glimmer of hope, giving everyone a way out that was not a way out in a desperate situation.
Many federal officials feel that Mu Chen is messing around, and he is not afraid of causing panic if he reveals such a top-secret matter to everyone without reservation?
You must know that just a few rumors may cause social turmoil, and what Mu Chen announced is not a rumor, but a real threat, I am afraid that it will not be long before the countries of the world will be in chaos.
What these people didn't expect was that Mu Chen's press conference not only did not cause a larger-scale riot, but instead made the previous resistance group disappear overnight.
Many people from the poor strata spontaneously organized themselves and marched in the streets, calling for peace, for stability and for unity.
Many high-ranking citizens with vested interests have also contributed their own strength.
Under the arguments of many parties, these people also understood that none of Mu Chen's words were made up, and when the Zerg invaded, no one could escape from this crisis, so what was the use of the money and resources stored in their hands?
Although these things are all guarantees for them to enjoy a high life, if this world becomes ruled by the Zerg, where will they go to enjoy life? Is it possible to be friends with the Zerg? It would be nice not to be used as food by those terrifying giant reptiles.
Mu Chen was right, in the face of the crisis of human extinction, the people of the earth burst out with unprecedented unity and perseverance.
Countless wealthy businessmen have voluntarily contributed the huge sums of money they have accumulated over the years to support federal research into new weapons and stronger warships.
The students in the various military academies have also begun to train day and night, and from time to time they are sent out to clear out the dark forces and criminals.
No one wants to wait for the Zerg to harvest their lives like lambs to the slaughter, and space warriors begin to hone their skills regardless of casualties, even if they die in training, it is better to die because of their own incompetence.
And the huge hourglass prepared by Mu Chen has become something that everyone pays attention to every day, and some people even open their eyes at the first moment when they wake up, they will turn on their light brains to check the countdown of the Zerg invasion, and then the exhaustion on their bodies will be swept away, and they will grit their teeth and continue to work as heavy as yesterday.
