Chapter 27 Crisis
"Hey, Barton!"
"Good evening, Kevin!"
The members of Quantum Corporation have a remote meeting, and Ning Fei, Crescent, and Caitlin greet others in the lab with holographic live images.
"I'll talk about it first", Patton took the lead as an intelligence commander: "I believe that everyone must have known the headlines of the alien spacecraft invasion of the earth through the Internet, television, newspapers and other media, and the coalition parliament, including the governments in the alliance, has not responded positively to the outside world, and the purpose of maintaining stability has prevented the spread of videos and related images as much as possible, but this series of events cannot be concealed at all, all the media around the world, people around the world have exploded, and the governments involved strongly demand that the alliance take immediate action, From last Friday to today, according to the information received, at least three regions in the world have been invaded from outer space, they are Rio, Hong Kong, and the northern part of Minnesota, which is closest to us. According to statistics, dozens of casualties have been caused. ”
Although Ning Fei and Crescent stayed in the laboratory to study the space crystal project, and Caitlin stayed in Albert, the sensation caused by this incident was still understood, and it was spread on the Internet, especially the continuous sabotage incident, the government did not respond positively, and blocked the relevant information as much as possible, which made the incident more mysterious, causing people to panic and various controversies, worrying that the earth would not be able to resist the threat from outer space, but there were also some people who were optimistic, There are also conspiracy theorists and skeptics who believe that these events are in fact terrorist acts by some terrorist groups or conspiracies planned by certain countries.
Barton shared the video taken by the witnesses and sighed, "It's not classified." ”
Ning Fei had come into contact with the wreckage of the space shuttle, and had also studied the space crystal, and he could see the leopard in the tube, and he understood the huge gap between the two civilizations from a small point of view, and his face was solemn, "This aircraft is the same style as the one of Veraculus in terms of appearance, and this energy weapon should be the same." ”
"Feng Ying and I have looked at Rio de Janeiro and Minnesota, and the scene has been cordoned off, and it is said that when the incident happened in Rio, the local armed police sent helicopters to intercept it, and the helicopters were shot down by two of them, and the other escaped almost unscathed, and there is no way to track them," Kevin said.
"Did you find any clues?" , Caitlyn asked.
"Not much," Blade began.
After waiting for about half a minute, Blade didn't continue to speak.
"Huh?"
"Uh-huh~"
Kevin pretended to cough and took Blade's words, "There aren't too many clues, we took some metal parts of the helicopter wreckage that were damaged by energy weapons at the scene as evidence. ”
Patton rubbed the corners of his eyes, the incident gave him a headache, "The Intelligence Bureau and the Special Operations Team are working in shifts 24 hours a day, but we don't know when and where they will appear next time, and their current attack is not large, like a tentative attack by the advance force. ”
"From the perspective of a scientific researcher, the technology of our world and theirs in the use of energy are completely two levels, how many levels are different, due to the lack of more references, it is impossible to count", Dr. Crescent put forward his opinion, pointing out the fundamental problem, which means that once there is a large-scale battle with the alien army, in terms of weapons, human beings are far behind, just like a contest between hot weapons and cold weapons, and will be completely defeated.
"Time is running out, we have to be ready," Kevin insisted.
"Hey~ Don't be sad, it's useless to be anxious, we need to use our brains and think of a way", Ning Fei really felt that the topic of this meeting was getting heavier and heavier, and everyone was worried about the future crisis, which made people very uncomfortable, so they planned to mobilize the atmosphere and be optimistic.
"At least we still have good news for now," Ning Fei said excitedly: "The experiment of controlled nuclear fusion has been successful, we have created new superconducting materials, and achieved a positive net energy output, a steady stream of energy!" This is the highlight moment in physics, which will rewrite the world's energy system and even fully deserve a Nobel Prize! ”
The crowd was eye-catching, but not interested in winning the Nobel Prize
"Is this true, Doctor?" , Barton asked Crescent.
"Ning Fei is right, this is indeed a pioneering act, an invention that will change the world", Xinyue nodded, but did not seem particularly excited.
That's not a good thing, Barton knows Dr. Crescent, she's not a humble genius scientist, and when she doesn't seem proud, it means things may not be good enough.
"Can we use it to defend against a crisis?"
"How to describe the future energy", Dr. Crescent Moon pondered: "In 1831, Faraday invented the disc generator with the principle of electromagnetic induction, and in the 70s of the 19th century, the actual usable generator came out, which opened the prelude to the second industrial revolution, and the same is true for controllable nuclear fusion, a technology from birth to application, it needs a certain process to continuously optimize and improve, it needs enough raw materials, enough superconducting alloy raw materials, the emergence of application technology, and the support of related industrial systems, it takes time." ”
Far water can't save a near fire.
"I don't think it's completely impossible to win," Kevin said, "Vision is an ability, but it doesn't necessarily work at all times, we don't know where we will be in five years, ten years from now, what we are going to do, but we know what kind of responsibility we have today, and in the face of enemies who are stronger than us, we need to unite and resist every attack they have, and become stronger in every battle." ”
Listening to Kevin's words, everyone nodded silently.
"That's a great story!" , Ning Fei gave a thumbs up. In Ning Fei's impression, the captain is the most determined of all, he has always rushed to the forefront, and he deserves to be a LinkedIn hero and leader.
Although Xinyue is a scientist with excellent intelligence, after all, he is the same age as Ning Fei, and he is not even as rich in life experience as Ning Fei, after listening to Kevin's words, he also began to think about the current way to deal with the situation, and said: "Judging from the data, there is always only one spaceship at present, we only need to shoot down this spaceship, then the current crisis can be solved, we can use the existing materials and equipment, and then build a small nuclear fusion device, and modify the existing fighter jet, so that we can pursue the spaceship." ”
"Then give it a try," Patton nodded, "I'll send a Liberty fighter from base to Albert and suggest to the Coalition that fusion energy be used in the military immediately, and while those in the council will be holding back, it's good to get things done sooner rather than later." ”
"I'm in charge of delivery", everyone said in detail about the plan, and Feng Ying really didn't add much, but he was the most efficient in action, as clean as his name.
The remote meeting is over.
The three people in the lab got up and prepared to go back to rest.
The moment he just stood up, Ning Fei suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his head, and sat back down.
That anxiety is back!
Ning Fei's sudden strangeness made both Crescent Moon and Caitlyn notice.
"What's wrong with you?" , Caitlyn asked.
Ning Fei put his fingers against the side of his head, trying to expel the discomfort in his consciousness through compression, and shook his head.
"Maybe I've been sitting for too long, I've done this once before, I'll divert my attention, and I'll be fine after a while," Ning Feiqiang laughed to himself.
Xinyue's face was full of worry, she walked up to Ning Fei, lowered her body and stared at Ning Fei's face, and said, "You are a little wrong today, I can feel this abnormality, you are extremely optimistic." ”
Ning Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked with a smile, "Isn't it good to be optimistic, doctor?" Everyone needs to be optimistic! ”
"Your eyes are not good at deceiving people, Ning Fei."
Xinyue kept staring at Ning Fei, and the anxiety in Ning Fei's mind continued, and finally lowered his head, avoiding Xinyue's eyes as if he had the superpower of seeing through the mind.
When Ning Fei raised his head again, his eyes were full of uneasiness, he tapped his head with his fingers a few times, and said bitterly: "It has woken up again now, and it has been telling me that danger and death are coming here!" ”
"What is it?"
"Professor Murray said that in my mind, the mutation is going on, it is something that was born from it, the instrument cannot detect its form, but I can feel it now, because every time it wakes up it is more active than before, it can affect my mood, at that time Professor Murray and his assistant proposed to extract nerve cells to study, it directly manipulated my emotions, made me say no, I have to divert my attention, I have to keep myself optimistic, it can calm down and it will not affect me!"
Even if Ning Fei described it carefully, Crescent Moon and Caitlin still couldn't imagine the existence of such an invisible monster in their minds, but this strange trait that seemed to have an independent consciousness and could control the subject's emotions was very surprising.
"Why does it tell you that danger is coming, is it for it or for you?" , Caitlyn asked.
"I don't know~", Ning Fei shook his head, "For me, it's the biggest fear!" ”
